Habitat
I loved what u wrote, could u leave it blank until may 10 so I can use it for my paper? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Goonie123 (talk • contribs) 04:10, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually, all I did was revert your edits. And no, I cannot guarantee that the Habitat for Humanity page will be unaltered until May 10th, in large part because I'm not the only editor on Wikipedia. Good luck on your paper, though. --I dream of horses (T) @ 17:15, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Ernie Sigley edit
Hi, I've just read your 7 April 2013, edit to the Ernie Sigley article and the description of Sigley as "an Australian slapstick comedian". I have to say that it inaccurate to describe him as a slapstick comedian. He simply is not. There are certain aspects of his humour that could be described as 'slapstickish', if that was a word, but he has never been categorised as just a comedian (of any persuasion) per se. Something along the lines of 'veteran television host, radio presenter and singer' or 'veteran entertainer' would describe him much better.

I have followed his career closely. We both live in Melbourne, Australia, I have seen him perform live a number of times, regularly watched his television shows and followed him on radio.

Thought I should bring this to your attention for your consideration. Cheers. Melbourne3163 (talk) 10:41, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
 * He was already described as having a slapstick style when I rephrased it--I just rephrased from "slapstick style" to "slapstick comedian". Feel free to change it. I dream of horses (T) @ 20:34, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
 * OK, I have just changed it. It does bring to notice that the Sigley article could use an update and expansion. I have put it on my list and will work on it in the next few days. Melbourne3163 (talk) 20:58, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Panchronic Phonology: how to edit references
Hi, Thanks A LOT for your help with the Panchronic Phonology page. I'm still novice at formatting references. Yes, I noted the redundancy between some of the references in the "Readings" and "References" sections. When I edited the page today, the references that were cross-linked between "Readings" and "References" did not appear in full in the "References" section: only an author-date mention like "Ferlus, 2009". So I undid this. Please accept my apologies if that is a bad move on my part. I thought a bit of redundancy would be better than having novice readers bump into an incomplete reference...? Again, let me know if this should be done differently and I'll go over the page again. Best wishes from Hanoi, --AlexisMichaud (talk) 02:32, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't believe that I am the person who did whatever you're talking about--I did, however, format some references that were duplicated so they would display properly, but not like "Ferlus, 2009". --I dream of horses (T) @ 02:47, 3 May 2013 (UTC) (copyedited at 02:47, 3 May 2013 (UTC))


 * Thanks for your note, and apologies for the misdirected note!
 * Best wishes

An edit in Symmetric cone
[] Could you explain please, what did you found wrong in the Incnis Mrsi (talk) 07:39, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I thought there was something wrong because Wikicleaner highlighted it, but I guess I learned that Wikicleaner isn't good at $$ $$. --I dream of horses (T) @ 22:24, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
 * How &lt;math> is related to the case? Both places where you made (an identical) mistake had no tags at all, neither &lt;math> nor &#123;{math}}. Just do not fix anything where you have not an idea (in your mind, not on the screen) how correct forms may look. If you see something too complex or uncommon to examine – bypass it. Leave it as it was. And it is especially the case for articles edited by clever guys. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 04:48, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, fine, point taken. I dream of horses (T) @ 05:57, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Page: Surf Association of Madeira
Dear Dream of Horses created a page Surf Association of Madeira which is a historic event in this region of 2 populated islands - the First Surf Association approved by the Govt of Madeira and the Portuguese Surf Association reported in the local media and national Portuguese press which will amongst other things run courses by businesses which for the first time will have full insurance policies to protect surfers who surf in the region from all over the world. Who wants this deleted and why...just spent 15 minutes or more of my time this afternoon justifying a good page that moves surfing forward in this region and in Europe and does not need justifying. Where is the discussion to delete it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abbiati (talk • contribs) 16:13, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

All Things Must Pass
Hi. You might want to be aware that changes you made to this article re avoiding duplication of references actually left many references orphaned. (See bottom of page here.) A bot has now rescued the refs, of course. Just wondering though: why remove those references when they clearly weren't duplications? JG66 (talk) 00:22, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Admissible rule
You cannot make this edit because it changes the number of the list item from 4 to 1, but 1 is wrong and 4 is correct. HTML list elements are not invalid in any way, and in cases such as this are needed to preserve the correct numbering. &mdash; Carl (CBM · talk) 02:47, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Vito Technology article
Hello, Could you advice how I can capitalize letter "T" in the word Technology in the article title? Actually that's why I deleted the content of the article.

Thanks, Nastya Yurkina (talk) 05:49, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Vito Technology is fine. So, uppercase "T".

Hi I'm the guy who posted the rhetorical question on the Jasper National Park page. It's a legitimate question, there were Native Americans there before any Europeans discovered the area and one of it's highlights is Spirit Island on Lake Maligne - is spirit First Nation or later??? New to wikipediaMilomac (talk) 20:12, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
 * While it's an appropriate question, it would be better asked at the talk page of the article, not the article itself. Please phrase it in a non-rhetorical fashion when you go to the talk page. --I dream of horses (T) @ 20:16, 10 May 2013 (UTC)

Models of deafness
I must disagree. By the historical and operational definitions, the inability to hear (or to speak) is a PATHOLOGY. Pointing this out is NOT vandalism; euphemistically referring to a pathology as a "cultural difference" is the vandalism here. If we extend the logic of euphemism to its conclusion, then those of us who are uncancered must respect malignant tumors as an example of "tissue diversity" and those of us without ischemia must respect claudication as "cultural anoxia." This lack of critical thinking is itself sick in the most literal sense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.118.17.221 (talk) 22:19, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

 * You could possibly try calling them 'four icons'? Although it is clear what you mean, by definition they cannot be called "four gods". The reason given by I dream of horses is correct. Melbourne3163 (talk) 01:55, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

How does your signature work?
Just had to ask.  smt cha hal  (talk) 11:03, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

I guess I already know... #ifeq, right?  smt cha hal  (talk) 11:10, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Like this:
 * In essence, it uses a parser function to see where it is being signed--if on a talk page other than hers, it adds the "If you reply here..." notice; if on her talk page, just the "T", and if anywhere else, just the "T". :)  Theopolisme ( talk )  11:15, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I guess I did know already how it worked&hellip; the only thing that bothered me, though, was that there was no visible in the signature, and that was (apparently) only because it had been substituted. Thanks!  smt cha hal   (talk) 11:28, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

there is no supporting data that the Lumbee indeed ever spoke Cheraw or any Siouan language by professional linguistics there are no conclusive irrefutable facts to sustain that the lumbee are indeed the Cheraw tribe or even related ,Citations need to be noted if so as fact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50johns (talk • contribs) 21:58, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your response at Talk:List_of_multi-level_marketing_companies. I've followed up with another question there. Mathglot (talk) 00:40, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I created an account to speak to you about an edit.
I'm the one who edited http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_game_exclusives_(seventh_generation). My edit had a note as listed below:

Revision as of 04:04, 26 May 2013 (edit) (undo) 173.171.118.19 (talk) (The Xbox One is not part of the seventh console generation.)

As I mentioned in the note above, the Xbox One is not part of the seventh console generation. For reference, please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_video_game_consoles_(seventh_generation). The first sentence makes it clear that the seventh console generation cut off as of 2012, meaning that the PS4 and Xbox One will fall into the eighth console generation. If there is an existing page for such a thing then the Xbox One listing could be moved there, but I have no particular interest in doing that. I merely wished to correct the mistaken entry on the page in question. If you have no intention of restoring my edit, please let me know, so that I can remove the Xbox One entry from the page once more. I apologize for not including more of an explanation in my note, but I also figured that if anyone was keeping an eye on the page, they would know video games and know what I meant immediately. In any case, thank you for the effort you put into keeping Wikipedia honest. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hyugaricdeau (talk • contribs) 14:12, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

Charles Edwards article AfD
It may seem like old news, but Klansman Charles Edwards was involved in the KKK murder of two black teens way back in 1964. He got immunity from testifying against John Seale, a former police officer who killed the teens.

 * Oh, sorry. I nominated for speedy deletion prematurely. --I dream of horses (T) @ 00:03, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

re: Biting newcomers
I don't believe tagging an article for deletion under CSD A3 constitutes biting newcomers. Ironically, your redirect of the article was flawed, in so much as: 1. you redirected to a non existent target and 2. redirects from article space to user space are against policy. I undid your edit and restored the CSD A3 notice. However, I will go ahead and leave a note on their user page, telling them they are welcome to recreate the page when they have actual content to post. Safiel (talk) 01:25, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I've been editing Wikipedia for years. Tagging articles for speedy deletion, if they're created by a new editor, often ends up with the article creators declaring they'll never edit Wikipedia again.
 * To the fact that I redirected to a non existent target--so fix it.. To the fact that redirects from article space to user space are against policy, rules can be ignored if they conflict with each other. --I dream of horses (T) @ 02:08, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

On Otto Funcke
"Do you realize that the article you wrote is quite unreadable?"

Yes, that's why I put a summary saying "it's just a rough translation". I didn't even write the article, just ran the German article through a translator. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Katacarbix (talk • contribs) 14:12, 30 May 2013‎
 * Probably not the best idea to run an article through a translater. It's better to either translate the article yourself, or to start from scratch. I dream of horses (T) @ 23:42, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
