I saw one of your photos of Osaka (I've been uploading my own recently). Thought I'd say hello. --Brad Beattie (talk) 17:18, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Lost Lexicographers
You appear to be wanting to write a dictionary. The project that has the goal of writing dictionaries is Wiktionary, which is over there. Wiktionary welcomes editors who want to, say, provide quotations demonstrating the uses and ages of idioms such as "bee's knees", provide meanings for them, or provide usage notes for them. What is more, rather than everything being confined to a single article as you would have it here, every word and idiom has its own article at Wiktionary, with room for its individual usage notes, quotations, etymologies, meanings, translations, and so forth. Don't be a Lost Lexicographer wandering Wikipedia in search of a dictionary. Come to where the dictionary is and do the lexicography where it is very welcome. You can start by looking at the entries in wikt:Category:English idioms and wikt:Category:English slang and improving them with any quotations, meanings, and usage notes that you have.

Outdated Slang
Hey there, wouldnt normally post on peoples webpage but although Ive voted for your article on list of outdated english slang to be deleted, if you continue work on it which from reading the discussion you want to, you might want to consider my comment regarding regionality of words. I give an example on the article for deletion page, but also some of the words possible have one or more slang meanings which you would need to consider. If they wont let you work on it on ur userspace, why not use a free website like yahoo offer or something and work on it there, that way you dont have the interference of Wikipedians! --PrincessBrat 20:28, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Responding to Wikiquette alert
Sarah, as an outside observer, I find that your comments about Nazis, "British" cultural identity, etc., are unhelpful to any meaningful discussion regarding the article. Please keep your opinions about the behavior of the British Empire to the proper Wikipedia pages or to yourself. The article has already been clearly marked with the controversy about the naming of the islands, Sarah, as an outside observer, I find that your comments about Nazis, "British" cultural identity, etc., are unhelpful to any meaningful discussion regarding the article. Please keep your opinions about the behavior of the British Empire to the proper Wikipedia pages or to yourself. The article has already been clearly marked with the controversy about the naming of the islands, the majority of the world calls it the British Isles (Wikipedia is not central to one English speaking country), and the term "British Isles" is not offensive per se as the name is historical. Illuminatedwax 02:17, 23 May 2007 (UTC)(Wikipedia is not central to one English speaking country), and the term "British Isles" is not offensive per se as the name is historical.

Reply: Yes, the term is offensive per se. The term "Nazi" is also historical, yet you appear to find it offensive when applied to the British Empire. "the majority of the world calls it the British Isles" - you have a reference perhaps? If not, then please keep your opinions about the issue to yourself. (Sarah777 21:58, 23 May 2007 (UTC))


 * I'm going to leave the above here because I think it's pretty clear that the template is inaccurate. Illuminatedwax 22:53, 23 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I did not place the tag regarding vandalism on this page. (Sarah777 23:02, 23 May 2007 (UTC))

 * OK. Peace. One sharp word follows another and next thing there is war. I accept your good faith in this matter, though obviously don't agree with you. Regards (Sarah777 07:23, 24 May 2007 (UTC))

Your edits to Loudness war are right on the money
I watched your argument with Jrod2 and I think your edits were totally appropriate while his are hindering development of several articles. I will revert him as much as appropriate and allowed by 3 R policy whenever I see suspicious edits. --Rert2 23:43, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Illuminatedwax here is the head of Rert2 (See: ) A dismembered head without a body, is never able to make a point. I hope I made mine crystal clear. Have a nice editing day! Jrod2 13:05, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi again
Dear Martin, I thought I let you know I left a counterargument at the Incident Board. Have a good day. Jrod2 20:31, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Um... my name isn't Martin. I just noticed this Illuminatedwax 09:19, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Good catch!
I noticed you deleted the external link of an editor who is an obvious single purpose account and intention. Good catch! BTW, I hope you don't resent me for asking another editor to review your edits a few days ago. Sorry for that. Jrod2 11:50, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Illuminatewax, check the Loudness war talk page
Hey body, long time no see. Your favorite page is undergoing some potential changes by a new user CuteStudio. You always have a neutral opinion so maybe you can help in with your comments at the Loudness war. whatever, you think is appropriate I will support as I know you come from a good neutral POV. Jrod2
 * Yeah, 3rd Opinion. I am about to leave a comment supporting your position. I did also advised that to the new contributor. Have a nice break and don't forget to check in WP when you can .Jrod2 03:52, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
