My userpage
The Gnome Week line on my page is supposed to be misspelled; it's promoting a copyediting/cleanup drive in October. Crystallina 04:00, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Mystery Edits
Hi, was trying to figure out the nature of the changes recently you made to Mika Tan, Jenna Jameson, and others. The diff highlights a single line, but the before/after look the same to me. Is this what happens when you hit 'Save Page' without making any changes? The edits weren't marked as minor; am I missing some subtle formatting change? Regards, Chewyrunt 22:41, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Understood, I often forgot to click minor myself. What I'm actually asking is, do you recall what the actual changes were? If you click the diff link in my note above, it shows the before/after - but to me they look the same. Do you recall what the edit was? Did you add a space somewhere, or click 'Save Page' without making any changes? add a space? Not a big deal, just trying to understand what I'm seeing. Regards, Chewyrunt 11:46, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Cool, thanks for clearing that up - Chewyrunt 15:15, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

Rajesh k pillania
Thanks for the note. Indeed, I think Rajesh k pillania is probably not notable. But I don't think the article is speedily-deletable. You may want to take the article to AfD...or I might do it even if you don't. All the best, Angus McLellan (Talk) 18:00, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Woroniecki
Please don't revert. I am working with user:Eaglizard on this and we are discussing it. Please let us resolve this together. Thanks 72.64.57.21 15:11, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for understanding Skywalker, I have an account but sometimes I'm too lazy to log in. I had a lot of valuable content that reinforced issues that Eaglizard was trying to fix, so I reverted it. Maybe you could explain why you reverted so I can be aware in the future how to avoid this situation. Thomas Anderson 15:34, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Okay, Mr. Skywalker, I have revamped the message section and removed the two testimonies and their corresponding email addresses in compliance with your request to Wikify. I simply found another source that was from a university newspaper that alllows the paragragh to remain plural in its accounting of claims. Sorry about my temporary spat of unwikiness. No rest for the Wikied. haha Thomas Anderson 17:42, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for moving the article
I'm sure it was an innocent mistake, but I didn't want to move it without discussing it first, so thanks for taking care of that! Ariel ♥ Gold 17:47, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Battle for Middle Earth PC Game Links
Hi, I noticed you deleted my amendments to the Community sites on the BFME pages (not under this account, I only just registered). You gave your reason as "fansites are mostly discouraged here", but that makes no sense as you're deleting additions to the list. Why not delete the whole list? The sites I'm adding are much more active and popular than those already on the list, so why can't they be added.

So as far as I see it, you should leave my additions up there, or delete the list entirely.

O Canada
I assume that you weren't trying to vandalize the page, but while reverting O Canada you replaced the lyrics of the anthem with the rap song "Ice, Ice, Baby". For often-vandalized articles like that one, be sure to look through the edit history for the last legitimate version. Happy editing. --Arctic Gnome (talk • contribs) 16:52, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Mafia 2
I don't have any problems with you and I don't need them ... But you're doing commercials with quote of Take Two. You can't do that ... And, please tell me, what is wrong with my article, beacause I can see that editing article won't do any good. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mobster 1930 (talk • contribs) 17:24, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

User page: TS Brumwell
Hi,

I got your note. Thanks for the info. I was attempting to "userfy" and I apparently got it wrong. Am I supposed to use the "user page" tab? Anything you can help me with would be greatly appreciated.

Regarding why this page was created. If you look on the AFD discussion, I lay out why I created the page. Apparently I did it the wrong way...again. Anyhow it was an attempt to bring the constant, undiscussed changes of the main article to another page in order that the main page might be spared from editors who post changes without discussion or consensus. If you flip over to Islam by country and its history page, you will see what I mean about the constant changes. Otherwise, and I still see this as a possiblity, is that we simply create links on the main page to subpages dedicaated to each of the sources. In other words...if you want to see the CIA World Factbook numbers you click on this link. If you want the see the US State Department figures, click on this link. Thereby everyone should be happy, individuals can update to their hearts content the source they prefer. The main page shorter and more concise.

I apologize if my words are all jumbled together...it's time for me to hit the sack. It's been a late night. (TS Brumwell 00:58, 3 September 2007 (UTC))

Mercenaries 2
Would you please point out to me exactly where it says no lists of vehicles/weapons/etc in WP:NOT....and shouldn't you do something about the Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction page then?? I think this is more of a personal thing against lists than it a rule. I really don't want to start an edit war and I can see that the article is a bit "overwhelming". Shinpah1 23:28, 9 September 2007 (UTC)


 * hmmmmmmm....yeah I read WP:VG/GL and WP:NOT again, I agree now that the item list should have been removed as specified in WP:VG/GL; that lists of items is content not belonging in wikipedia. However, I do not believe that having this info categorizes the page as a game guide (it really depends on what a "game guide" is)....which was why reading WP:NOT over and over again didn't help....I think that as a compromise only having a weapon/vehicle list without descriptions could have been established (but it's a little late now). I'm very sorry for using up your time and patience. Shinpah1 19:09, 10 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I think that something that would look like a game manual would have instructions on how to play the game and would contain a weapon/vehicle list; and I think that the weapons descriptions were starting to cross that line....however, since the Mercenaries series is so defined by the variety of weapons/vehicles/air strikes I think that a decent encyclopedia article would have a sampling of the those things (except that makes it seem like an ad).

Bioshock
Hey, I saw you reverted my edit. Just wanted to find out what I did wrong? We had a discssion about it here and it was agreed that this could be added. Thanks! --UaneReade 00:03, 10 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh cool. Ok sorry about that. Didnt know the rules. Thanks --UaneReade 13:05, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
