RFA
Right now I'm going thru an odd time. But, logging on and seeing the 1APR RFA made me laugh, and I needed it. Thank you for your sense of humor, sometimes we can use that. :) Regards, NonvocalScream (talk) 13:58, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

I know you have a penchant for humor, but there's a fine line between being humorous and merely being a pest. You're inching perilously close to that line. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 21:20, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * What humor? I'm quite serious.  Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 21:48, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

ANI
Hello,. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Tiptoety talk 21:38, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, that is correct. I have started the ANI thread Tiptoety mentioned. Sorry for not notifying you immediately, that was my bad. Nsk92 (talk) 22:01, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Don't worry about it. It really wasn't necessary, since Tiptoety already let me know, but thanks! Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 22:08, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

John Bot
Natural to ask ;-) The bot operator contacted me asking if I could revert a series of edits by the bot, as there appears to be some kind of problems. I must admit I haven't investigate further. Better to ask Compwhizii himself ;-)  Snowolf How can I help? 23:32, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, sorry about that. My bot made a boo-boo :)   CWii ( Talk  00:11, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

FYI
As an arch-inclusionist, you may be entertained by the matter of Ealing Broadway Platform 9 which continues to spawn remarkable developments like Station Jim. I am not soliciting your !vote since I suppose you have stalkers who would follow you there. I just thought it would entertain you. Colonel Warden (talk) 10:58, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Kurt, are you planning on attending the 2008 Libertarian National Convention? Maybe we can meet there... 129.174.91.119 (talk) 17:15, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

No, I'm not. I don't even know who you are, so why would I want to meet you? Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 18:23, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Re: The man who could have been
Thank you for your wise words. Gwynand | Talk/Contribs 11:53, 8 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Sorry -- my name certainly is a shortening of "Gail Wynand" from The Fountainhead. You're quote certainly seemed Rand-ian, although I didn't recognize it immediately (haven't actually read that novel in ages). Who says this in the novel? Wynand? Gwynand | Talk/Contribs 11:58, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Limits of inclusion
I noticed your vote here, which seems to boil down to "if it is verifiable and excists, we should have an article about it". I have been thinking on things related to the issue, and I'd like to hear your opinion on the following: In the area of Alkmaar, the town I live in, every week about 20 soccer matches are played in the amateur competitions. The outcomes of those matches are all published in several newspapers, 2 or 3 each, of which one "real" one, and 1 or 2 sunday only mainly adds, free door to door newspapers. I was wondering what your opinion on those matches is. Do you think we should have articles on those matches? Cheers, Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 20:50, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, of course. Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 22:10, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, of course is a bit of a strech here, I think most wikipedias would disagree with you there (and though I haven't found my exact stance on in/exlusionism yet, I also believe we should not have those articles), but thank you for your opinion! Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 22:13, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Please consider taking the AGF Challenge
I would like to invite you to consider taking part in the AGF Challenge which has been proposed for use in the RfA process by User: Kim Bruning. You can answer in multiple choice format, or using essay answers, or anonymously. You can of course skip any parts of the Challenge you find objectionable or inadvisable.--Filll (talk) 14:16, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

RFA Thanks
Thank you for your comments on my RFA. Even though it failed with 28 supports, 42 opposes, and 15 neutrals, I am grateful for the suggestions and advice I have received and I do hope to improve as a Wikipedian. If you ever need my help in any endeavor, feel free to drop me a line. -- Shark face  217  19:47, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

My RfA...
 Thank you... ...for your participation in my RFA, which closed with 85 supports, 2 neutrals and 1 oppose. I'm extremely grateful for all the the kind comments from so many brilliant Wikipedians I've come to respect and admire, as well as many others I've not yet had the pleasure of working with, and I'll do my best to put my shiny new mop and bucket to good use! Once again, thank you ;) EyeSerene talk 16:49, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Kurt, I deleted this from your talkpage once already, and I'll do it again. Just say the word.  Keeper   |   76   |   Disclaimer  21:58, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
 * And Kurt I deleted the said page, as it was a page created by another user in your own userspace. If for some reson you want it undeleted, just ask.   « Gonzo fan2007  (talk ♦ contribs)  23:02, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Response
The comment was not notable, as I also stated in the edit summary. --   JT   Holla! 16:36, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Saying so doesn't make it so. Any relevant information is valid, no matter how "notable" you or anyone else thinks it might be.  Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 16:59, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * WP:NN would disagree with you. --    JT   Holla! 17:20, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Irrelevant. We're not obligated to abide by it.  It's meaningless.  So-called "rules" are not important; what's best for the encyclopedia is.  Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 17:24, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome go ahead across the bridge, because as I said on the talk page, I couldn't find the find the cord to the digital camera. However, I did find something that could have saved me $20 if I found it a couple of months ago! I have a nasty cold, so don't expect to do to much editing anytime soon. Southern Illinois SKYWARN (talk) 22:32, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I found the cord to the digital camera, but I'm still sick. I might be able to take a few pictures at some point. Southern Illinois SKYWARN (talk) 21:19, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

"Recher theatre" deletion
Hi. With all due respect, this is very much a clear-cut A1 with "little or no context." This doesn't even qualify as a valid stub IMO. Thanks. :) --PMDrive1061 (talk) 20:54, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy deletion is inherently wrong. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether it "qualifies" or not.  Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 20:59, 21 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Erm... Usually, people use "Therefore" if they're making a conclusion that is supported and based on facts. The statement "Speedy deletion is inherently wrong" is subjective and is not supported by these things known as facts. Thanks. 81.105.28.52 (talk) 08:39, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Incorrect. Nothing is ever subjective.  Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 13:50, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Your comment
Your comment here was a little harsh. While I agree that the user is out of line, a little more courtesy should be expected. Malinaccier Public (talk) 16:57, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Could you please add a link to IAR just for a bit of extra clarity...otherwise, nice work, I like it! dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) 11:21, 25 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Heh...by the time I woke up this morning it was already closed. Anyway, I'm not so sure about that...IAR implies that there are in fact rules in the first place, which I categorically deny.  Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 13:57, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

I love your new template. I'd like to start using it instead of. Please could you give me the code that I'd need to copy and paste? Thank you. Dan Beale-Cocks 13:12, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 15:08, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

User talk:Bamblerose
I'm asking you nicely, Please do not start an edit war over welcome templates. In case you are afraid I'm singling you out I'm placing the exact same message on 87.112.5.130's page. Thank you. Jasynnash2 (talk) 14:34, 25 April 2008 (UTC)


 * It's not an edit war. The IP is a known sock of banned user Fredrick day.  This particular IP address has already been blocked.  His placing of a welcome template himself was fine; his removing my own was not, and so what I am doing is perfectly legitimate.  Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 14:36, 25 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree that him removing your template was inappropriate. My concern is that by simply reverting his edit it looks like the beginnings of an "edit war" (please forgive me if there is a policy addressing that which I'm unaware of). I've seen most of the discussion going on at AN or ANI and although I may not agree with some of your opinions but, I'm fully behind you expressing them and welcoming new users is always a good thing in my eyes. Jasynnash2 (talk) 15:01, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Singular They
Hi Mark, I was enjoying reading the boxes on your user page and noticed a conflict - sorry, I am a former copy editor. One box is against the singular they (I agree with you on that) - but another box says the user would choose "their (versus 'his') employess over a one-night stand." Good user page.Kek15 (talk) 15:31, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I think you have me confused with another editor. My name is not "Mark."  Kurt Weber ( Go Colts! ) 15:38, 25 April 2008


 * I'm sorry Kurt, but I did mean you and your user page. My apologies for getting your name wrong. Kek15 (talk) 13:25, 26 April 2008 (UTC)


 * P.S. I saw your user name at the following thread:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Keeper76&diff=prev&oldid=208142214 I took exception with the way Keeper76 addressed you and also his promise to quash your free speech - just because he didn't agree. In the end, he deleted the thread from his talk page.Kek15 (talk) 13:44, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
