swine flu, good contributions
I know you have! You’ve done good stuff.

The only thing I might ask, off topic, if you could take a look at rotavirus. If anything’s more important than influenza, it might be that. I tend to be more of a specialist, but if you’re kind of a generalist. ..

Okay, I’m getting to know the lay of the land here at wikipedia, I’m starting to get to know some of the people. All the same, I am open to continuing both here and a new site. And if we just do excerpts, we can go faster! And it wouldn’t distract me at all, provided I stay on the single topic of swine flu.

Go with the flow, and from time to time work to improve wiki according to our best lights, and keep my good humor which I think I’ve done a pretty good job at :~)  Take care, and thanks for being in there pitching.   Cool Nerd (talk) 23:24, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Movie reviews on Wikinews
Hi. I was going through Jimmy Wales' Talk Page, and came across the post in which you told me about a year and half ago that writing movie reviews would be okay on Wikinews. Can you tell me where on that site I can do this? I never use that site, so I don't know where to go to do this. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 01:37, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Link love
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Link love. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Articles for deletion/Link love. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 01:12, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

do not mark any edit as minor

 * "do not mark any edit as minor" - Really? Exactly where does it state that you have the power to order that? Thanx. Handicapper (talk) 16:07, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not ordering you to do anything. I'm making a suggestion. Sorry I gave a damn. WAS 4.250 (talk) 23:48, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Our disrupted melody
Gah. Adambro seems hell-bent on denying you (among others) the right to peaceably assemble and engage in scholarly dialogue with conversational partners of your choice.

Here is a link to the edits where I had responded to your greetings earlier this morning.

 * Thank you kind sir for pointing me to:
 * "I have no point to make, WAS. Geoff and others have asked me to participate in some upcoming discussions and seminars here. One of the new questions to be answered is whether Adam and Ottava intend to extend or deny to their remaining fellow scholars here the freedom to learn with the visiting scholars of their choice. If so, fine. If not, I reckon Geoff and the others will be obliged to relocate their courses elsewhere. But here is your song. —Moulton 09:48, 5 July 2010 (UTC)" and the song

 * By the way, that was some rant by Ottava the other day. I guess he never changed a kid's diapers. - WAS 4.250 (talk) 12:35, 6 July 2010 (UTC)


 * It's getting more absurd every day. Are you following the lunatic drama of the Four Custodians of the Apocalypse?  Moulton 00:10, 3 August 2010 (UTC)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.154.15.14 (talk)

Odd Jimbo reference citation
Hello WAS. I been doing minor clean up on some of the Civility essays. At this point on your essay: I see a quote from Jimbo and it has a footnote to a particular user page. The same boxed quote and note is on your user page. Frankly, I'm mystified as to why Boothy's page footnote is there -- is it a reference, mistake, test, or what? (I'll look for your reply here.) Thanks.--S. Rich (talk) 16:28, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.
