User talk:Melsaran/Archive May 2007

Hello, I am Joe
I just left new comments for you. I do understand your point of view. But how about this other idea? The template could be usable on extreme situations by a sysop and made also available to members of certain projects that are having problems with certain pages. For example, I would like to propose the use of this template at WikiProject Professional Sound Production. I will tell the members that I have tagged the controversial Audio mastering page, and that we need a vote to keep it or delete it. It could be a good experiment and it would give you grounds for complete deletion from the system, if it fails. But, if it works, you would have contributed to the inclusion of another proven useful tool at WP. What do you think?. Thanks for your attention. Jrod2 02:04, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Love Is War
I've moved Love is War back to Love Is War. Seems that you've mistaken "is" for "in" :-) Regards, Jogers (talk) 15:39, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Yep, you're totally right. Excuse me. Salaskan 16:05, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Template Fct
Template which you have used has been Nominated for deletion As you have used it I was wondering if you could vote for it to be kept? Ajuk 23:33, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for notifying me! I joined the discussion. Salaskan 23:44, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Love Is War
Looking back at this article, I now have no idea why I added the template, so I've removed it. Sorry about that. (I have also re-italicised the album name, in line with WP:ALBUM). Colonies Chris 09:48, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Never mind, and thanks for the style addition. Salaskan 09:51, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Your edit to Userbox migration
I reverted your edit to WP:UBM because it makes no sense. All that it's saying is that you can have anything in your userspace within reason, so no pro-nazi or pro-pediphilia (these are real examples and they've been deleted), and no solicitation (which is reasonable anyways). -Royalguard11 (Talk·Review Me!) 20:00, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Prohibiting nationalsocialistic comments is a violation of WP:NPOV. Wikipedia takes no stance on political matters. If someone has far-right views, they have an equal right of expressing it as communists, capitalists etc. have. An entirely other matter would be the advocacy of hate, violence and/or discrimination actively, which is forbidden. When someone places a nazi-flag on their user page, it should be regarded as democracy, however. You can't say you're democratic when it's only "within reason". Democracy permits all viewpoints.

 * Per God King, pedophile userboxes are banned (and per WP:ARBCOM, bring it up with them), and Nazi ones are also banned (per God King, bring it up with ArbCom). Sorry. If you ask someone else (which won't do any good), I'd recommend Cyde or an ArbCom member. Please discuss any future major changes on the talk page. -Royalguard11 (Talk·Review Me!) 22:56, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Argumentum ad Jimbonem! :-) Salaskan 14:11, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Then read the mailing lists to find the 20 day 100 email discussion about the Nazi Userbox (it was in January I think). And I don't know where the whole anti-Jimbo sentiment has come from lately). -Royalguard11 (Talk·Review Me!) 22:44, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Thank you for these clarifying links. I guess the policy cannot be altered that easily as there have been many months of consensus forming prior to this. I apologise for editing the policy, albeit a very little, without discussion on the talk page. Salaskan 15:57, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Latin/French influence on English
Hey Salaskan! I've got a few links for you. this one tells you something general about the history of the English language and why it is completely OK that there are so many French terms in there, and these are related to the topic and more for fun:, ; these are WP articles: Ander-Saxon, Inkhorn term. Don't be so puristic! :-) Cheers, Krankman 21:46, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Cool, thanks for the links. Will read them soon. I'm quite interested in etymology as of lately. Salaskan 21:48, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
