RE: Cabals
It's a complicated matter. Right now, the community is very divided on this matter; some believe cabals should stay, some believe they should be deleted. Keilana chose to delete all of them for now, because she believed all they were doing was splitting up the community and having a negative effect. This decision has been contested, so some of them have been restored; there's going to be a request for comment on the matter as soon as I write one up. You can see relevant discussion here. Cheers, Master of Puppets  Call me MoP! :)  20:56, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry to hear about the cabals. I'm sorry if I, in any way, dragged your cabal into this matter. 'Basketball110'  Talk  22:15, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Re:good job
Thanks for the barnstar. Sorry if getting beaten a lot frustrates you; that used to annoy me all the time when I was at home on our wireless network. I'll be off in about an hour anyway, then maybe you'll have better luck. Thanks again!-- Dycedarg  &#x0436;  04:20, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

42nd Cabal.
I've e-mailed you the source code, as requested. I'll try to stay up to date with the cabal discussion, but I've really very little time these days. :/ · AndonicO  Hail!  08:32, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Cabal debate opinion
I just wanted to say I not only agreed with your opinion, but that is the same way I felt about all the cabals. Good job! - Diligent Terrier (and friends) 22:28, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Editor review/Pewwer42
Thanks for participating. I have reviewed you. Do you have any comments?--RyRy5 Got something to say? 00:40, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Well, if you have any questions about something, just ask. Oh, I don't mind, and I appreciate that you like my userpage.--RyRy5 Got something to say?  23:31, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Cabals
I'm not sure when it'll end. I haven't read what everyone's said, so I'll comment after I've found time for that, though I guess we close it when the community is decided. Master of Puppets Call me MoP! :)  21:50, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

DRV
Hi. I'm really sorry I didn't post this sooner, but it didn't occur to me until just now. The deletion of one or more "cabals" in your userspace is at WP:DRV, you may want to see the discussion or comment. Keilana | Parlez ici 23:13, 16 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I restored the page, per what I read in the DRV discussion, and the closer's remarks.
 * A few things to consider:
 * This may be MfD'ed by anyone, and likely will be.
 * You might want to consider a rename to the page without the word "cabal". I'd be happy to help with suggestions.
 * You also might want to think of some creative ways in which the "hook" of your questionaire may help inspire others to help collaborate on related articles.
 * My restoring it wasn't so much a "support" of the page, as it was that I (and others, apparently) think it was different than the rest which were grouped together.
 * Good luck : ) - jc37 17:04, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

wow, I actually didn't even know about this until today. thank you very much sir! you know what they say (in case you don't its, The only thing worse then being talked about is not being talked about.~Oscar Wilde) I feel famous, I would put a dancing smiley on here if I could, in fact: The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar - for making me feel like I'm part of the cast of Cheers.

now, as to your things to consider, 1. Yes I know thank you for reminding me of the harsh parts of wikilife:P. 2 and 3. I would gladly accept your recommendations. and 4. people always told me I was different :) -- Pewwer42  Talk 02:32, 18 April 2008 (UTC)


 * one other thing, I don't suppose you could restore the

 * the last one isn't that necessary considering the only person I turned down was a sock puppet account that got banned.-- Pewwer42  Talk 02:45, 18 April 2008 (UTC)


 * thank you much-- Pewwer42  Talk 04:34, 18 April 2008 (UTC)


 * You're welcome, and thank you for the barnstar.
 * I'll give the rename and such other suggestions some thought. My initial thought is that just as 42 is "The answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything", so too could that be said (in hyperbole) about Wikipedia. Something to ponder at least... - jc37 04:41, 18 April 2008 (UTC)


 * It could be


 * welcome to 42 we have the answer(s)


 * of course that would mean I would need to add a goal to the group, something to do with helping out in Wikipedia:Reference desk or filling in missing trivia, some thoughts worthy of our omniscient observer-- Pewwer42  Talk 04:48, 18 April 2008 (UTC)


 * (LOL @ omniscient : )
 * As for a reference desk of sorts, that sounds rather good, actually. - jc37 04:53, 18 April 2008 (UTC)


 * ok, I'll work on it tomorrow, its late and I still haven't fixed a problem with a game I play-- Pewwer42  Talk 05:17, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok. Have a good day : ) - jc37 15:44, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

42
I did an update to 42, take a look and tell me what you think. Please pay close attention to the AIMs section. -- Pewwer42  Talk 22:57, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
 * A thought.. Let's rename the page to the ubiquitous "42". 42 is the answer, not 42nd cabal : )
 * Let me know before you move it though, so that we can fix the links. - jc37 00:57, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I can move pages? I thought only sysops could-- Pewwer42 <font style="color:#089852;background:#0000ff;"> Talk 02:38, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * oh, guess I can, ok I'll move it to User:Pewwer42/42 when you give the ok-- Pewwer42 <font style="color:#089852;background:#0000ff;"> Talk 03:22, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Go ahead. I'll work in the links. - jc37 15:51, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * and so It shall be. delete the old one if you want.-- Pewwer42 <font style="color:#089852;background:#0000ff;"> Talk  16:47, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I will, but first, I want to go through the links shown by WhatLinksHere and edit them to point to the new page, as appropriate. - jc37 16:49, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * ok, and now thats its not technically a cabal anymore, did you want to be moved from omniscient observer to omniscient member?-- Pewwer42 <font style="color:#089852;background:#0000ff;"> Talk 16:57, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Let's keep me as a neutral observer (for now, at least). It's probably better all around.
 * Also, I've already edited the userbox, and moved it as well. Working on fixing its links first. I've also deleted the "accepted into the cabal" template (the "wiki-way" is openness to anyone, which you've pretty much shown anyway : ) - jc37 17:02, 19 April 2008 (UTC)


 * (de-dent) - Ok, I've fixed most of the links. I left several because, since they discussed it as a cabal, they should probably be redlinks.
 * One last note: Based on your "aims", once you have several "participants", and this becomes fairly active, you might consider becoming an "official" work group of WP:HHGTTG. But let's see 42 developed a bit more first.
 * Good luck, and I hope you have a great day : ) - jc37 17:53, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * ok, you to-- Pewwer42 <font style="color:#089852;background:#0000ff;"> Talk 18:29, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Meh, you'll have to ask someone else to delete it. I kinda like it... :\ 91.125.101.92 (talk) 01:08, 23 April 2008 (UTC) (it's me, btw)
