Commenting on images for deletion
I've noticed that you've left comments on the talk pages of several images that have been nominated for deletion. The discussions for such deletions actually take place at WP:IFD, which can be accessed through a link on the deletion template on the image's page. You may have to check the date the image was nominated to find the image's entry. Additionally, please keep in mind that images are kept or deleted based on their value to this encyclopedia, not on users' personal opinions of the subject matter. Commenting on the physical attractiveness of the person in a picture does not help toward this goal, and may be construed as a personal attack in some cases.

By the way, I noticed that no one has ever given you a proper welcome to Wikipedia! I've posted a welcome template below. It has many useful links that can help you to learn your way around the place. --Icarus (Hi!) 12:07, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Is it that if a picture of a brick was orphaned or put up to troll, it would be deleated A.S.A.P.; but if it was an ugly old bloke, it's nomianted, only to be left in limbo because a bloke can sue, unlike a brick. I agree with removing low resalution map images. --Homer slips. 19:56, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

To ad to this, calling the above mentioned brick unesiclopedic and low-res' map obsoleet, unlike the bloke- Bloke sues, brick and map can't so they get scrubbed rather than just removed. --Homer slips. 20:05, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Great Moravia
Please try to stick strictly to the verbal description in the Great Moravia article text when creating the map (otherwise it is virtually sure that the map will be wrong or outdated, because there are many such maps) Juro 05:35, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Iraq.
The B.B.C. reported Saddam's death at 3.15, Sky news joined in at 03.17 and Euro-news rounded it up at 03.24. -- -- Homer slips. 03:34, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Did you see that Sky news footage of the rally in Detroit at 03.18 U.T.C.? A Shi'ite cleric stood on a car leading several dozen joyful, flag-waving, Shi'ite exiles! I hope this will bring a new era of peace, stability and harmony to both Iraq and the Middle east. --Homer slips. 03:51, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
