Fugue
Hi. What do you actually know of music theory? Some of your copyedits to the fugue article have been good - but others have been seriously detrimental - some of the terminology is now flagrantly misused, and renders the information misleading. You're just undoing hard work! Matt.kaner 16:24, 24 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Hey that's cool. What I think needs really serious work is the history section - it's so incoherent! Matt.kaner 22:25, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Epsom College main building and lawn.jpg

Your comment
Hi major. Thanks for your comment here. The information that you are confused about came from here on page 444. If you can make better sense of it in its original form, please feel free to revise the Subpersonality article accordingly. Thanks. Bebestbe (talk) 16:42, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Re: Bethena review
Yeah it looks good; feel free to submit it to WP:GAN for a formal review.  Gary King ( talk ) 19:00, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Bethena
Hi there. The above article has been reviewed at GAN. Let me know if you have any queries. Regards, hamiltonstone (talk) 03:30, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Featured sound nom
Thanks for nominating a sound at featured sound! I hope you don't mind, but I refactored your nomination slightly. You hadn't filled out the 'reasons for nominating', but had expounded in your support, so I moved it up. Feel free to change it at all if need be. Also, I commented on the sound. Jujutacular  T · C 18:42, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thanks for creating and working on this article. I have added a Thanks section to the article's Talk page. Thanks also for naming yourself after a delightful character in my favorite British comedy radio show. David Spector 04:27, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Scott Joplin
In contexts where the article talks about his family, we should refer to him as "Scott" or "Scott Joplin" to distinguish him from other family members, especially Giles. Would you mind reverting those two changes? --Stepheng3 (talk) 16:33, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for taking the issue to the article's talkpage. --Stepheng3 (talk) 00:48, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Featured Sound Candidates discussion
As someone who has nominated or commented on one of the current candidates, a couple of which are getting very old, you are invited to comment at this discussion to see if we can tidy up the FSC page before Christmas (and / or one or more of the nominations). Thank you. BencherliteTalk 19:10, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Featured Sounds needs you
Featured sounds was booming with activity in the March/April period, ideally that should be all the time. FS has been a battleground at times, however, it is my hope that that is in the past. I ask you all to reconsider your positions and set aside the differences you may have had with other participants for the good of the project and encyclopedia. Don't let FS become like VP, it is a path that a featured process should traverse. You were sent this message because you are listed at Featured sound candidates/Contributors or have been a past contributor.

FSC vote
Did you just support Monaco or Support All?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 19:39, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for considering my noms. We need some more voters. Where is everybody?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 21:03, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Fortunately the FSC process is accomodating to fluctuating levels of availability. Some processes you have a week or 10 days and it is done. Here they give the reviewers time to track down sheet music and take time to evaluate everything.  Eventually, people will come by and make some decisions.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 07:42, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Epsom College Photo
Hi, I am enquiring about a picture you added to the Epsom College Wikipedia page (looking up at the main tower from below). I am a student here at Epsom College, and I am designing a new cover for the Offical Prep diary's next year. I have included your picture in my design, but have not yet published it since I was aware of some type of Copyright. I am aware that it is probably not as simply as me just asking you, but is this alright? I will gladly send you a copy of the design if you require one. 77.96.122.13 (talk) 18:35, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Amazing Grace file usage
Since you voted at Featured sound candidates/Three versions of Amazing Grace, I was hoping you would comment at Wikipedia_talk:Featured_sound_candidates.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:48, 1 August 2011 (UTC)


 * I am a bit bewildered by your response. You rambled quite a bit and I see no opinion on whether you feel the files I raised an issue about would be well-suited to the article. However, you gave what appears to be a pro-WP:OWNership statement "I think an FS should be used to enhance WP, and that the sound recordings should be used to give added value to an article in collaboration with the editors who have worked on the article in question already." If I am interpreting the statement correctly, it means that when an editor spends a lot of time on an article the does sort of OWN it in the sense that rather than considering what is best for the article we actually consider their preferences. Am I reading this correctly that the preferences of people who spend time on an article are more important in this regard.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 08:06, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clarifying. As I understand it, you basically feel that extensive involvement in an article is often associated with topical expertise and newly involved editors should not make lightly-considered changes to well-conceived pages such as FAs.  I also gather that you consider yourself not qualified/interested enough in the specific song and files at issue to state an opinion on whether the files at issue should be included as I suggest.  Basically, I consider you neutral out of deference to a likely topical expert. I hope to get some opinions one way or another from other audiophiles, but I understand.  I also agree that the author knows more about the article subject than most.  However, this remains the only time in my use of over 200 sound files that I have contributed to Wikipedia where I continue to disagree with other editors on the inclusion of a file. Thus, I remain hopeful that someone at FSC is enough of an expert to provide an opinion one way or another.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:59, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reply. Can you post my last reply above at FSC so that people might be clearer on what I am looking for. You may want to add your reply on my talk page there as well.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 23:02, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Scott Joplin
The article Scott Joplin you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Scott Joplin for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:09, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

List of compositions by Scott Joplin
Hi, I see that you are rewriting List of compositions by Scott Joplin. However, I have made a bunch of edits on the article that I feel are improvements, such as improving the sortability of the table. Also, I disagree with creating a separate table for lost works, as we can make all of the lost works appear next to each other when the notes column of the table is sorted. I think it is best to consolidate things in one table when possible.Hoops gza (talk) 00:03, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Listed companies
Hi - I notice you had tagged a couple of listed companies. Please note that WP:LISTED refers to "the very high likelihood that a publicly traded company is actually notable according to the primary criterion". In any case the speedy deletion criteria should not be used in such circumstances. Thanks. Dormskirk (talk) 12:14, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Help decide the future of Wikimania


The Wikimedia Foundation is currently running a consultation on the value and planning process of Wikimania, and is open until 18 January 2016. The goals are to (1) build a shared understanding of the value of Wikimania to help guide conference planning and evaluation, and (2) gather broad community input on what new form(s) Wikimania could take (starting in 2018).

After reviewing the consultation, we'd like to hear your feedback on on this survey.

In addition, feel free to share any personal experiences you have had at at a Wikimedia movement conference, including Wikimania. We plan to compile and share back outcomes from this consultation in February.

With thanks,

I JethroBT (WMF) (talk), from Community Resources 23:46, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Towards a New Wikimania results
Last December, I invited you to share your views on the value of Wikimedia conferences and the planning process of Wikimania. We have completed analysis of these results and have prepared this report summarizing your feedback and important changes for Wikimania starting in 2018 as an experiment. Feedback and comments are welcome at the discussion page. Thank you so much for your participation. I JethroBT (WMF), Community Resources, 22:47, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
