Test Wikipedia logo vote
Hi! Would you consider changing your vote to support C3 instead of E? It also makes it clear you're on the Test Wikipedia, but it looks less crude IMHO -- replacing "The Free Encyclopedia" with "Test Wiki", and in red, too, to make it more obvious. I really think it's more elegantly designed... :) &mdash; Nightst a  llion  (?) 05:56, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Debt Diet Article - copyrigth violation
I saw your note on the debt diet article claiming it was a copyright violation. I am the author of the article on holisticjunction and the author of the aritcle I submitted here. I noted this on the talk page of the article but I still dont really have the hang of this place yet so I thought I would tell you, as well.

Thanks

stop deleting facts about the INC, you and the other two fools defend berean and protestant teaching in the INC article.--IndependentMind 04:10, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Debt Diet Article (cont.)
Im not sure if that was you that responded to me (via mytalk) but I wanted to find out how to release my article under the GNU Free Documentation License. Can you help me out?

Thanks!!

Request for opinion: Talk:British Shorthair
Another user has added the NEDM/Happycat information into the British Shorthair "Famous British Shorthairs" subsection. In an effort to prevent another revert war over this, I have moved the debate into the Article's Talk Page. Your opinion and vote would be greatly appreciated. --Targetter 04:58, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

User:Cherrychase
It should be noted that User:Cherrychase made the initial POV edit to the Iglesia ni Cristo article, which has been reverted back by the suspected Emico sockpuppets. I have good reason to believe that Cherrychase is Emico also.--Ironbrew 06:20, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Blanking
Hey I got an unsigned blanking question on my talk page from this account. I did not even blank the page. I simply removed an Afd tag on 502 Downtowner (TTC) because no one had contributed stating why it was really necessary and it had been a week since it had gone up. I know you're an administrator, but please go easy on me. Nlsanand 02:48, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Phoenix V
You got to the indef block for sockpuppetry before me! Good job!  (aeropagitica)   (talk)   22:22, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I was about to do the same thing, but I'm not sure that's quite correct. He has publicly stated that he has adopted the new user name. He lasted edited as User:Prof. MagneStormix on August 8. He began to edit as User:Phoenix V on August 9. There is no overlap between the accounts. He is entitled to edit under a new name. I suggest it might be better to delete the former account, as he has stated he has now adopted the new name, and to deal with Phoenix V for whatever sins he has committed, which as far as I can see to date are primarily leaving a nonsense message on User talk:I'll bring the food. If I've missed something here, let me know. Tyrenius 23:04, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well spotted. I missed that. So technically it is indeed a sockpuppet to evade blocks. My original block notice stated 24 hours, so I don't think he would have mistaken that. I would have turned a blind eye, but I have no interest in contesting it, and if you feel the action is the right one, so be it! Tyrenius 23:19, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

This could run and run... By the way I had a look at your "barnstars presented", as one does, and noticed a typo in "This is a list of people who I given barnstars to." Tyrenius 00:17, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

"Indoctrinee"
I'm turning to you on this. I understand that you, as a member, have no objection to INC prospective members being referred to as "indoctrinees" and that it may even be an official term. Like you, although I haven't offically joined your project, I feel that I am very interested in countering systemic religious bias in Wikipedia (and, to a large extent, elsewhere). Do you see where this term can sound POV and negative, even accusatory, to non-members? "Indoctrination", like "propaganda" and "regime", has an almost always negative connotation in at least American English, although in reality all should be neutral and non-POV words; we both know that there can be positive as well as negative indoctrination, good as well as bad propaganda, benevolent as well as malevolent regimes, but people, at least Americans, generally don't see it that way. I think that the person who asked this was trying to work against a systemic bias against your religion and that it was meant in a good way. Thank you for all that you do for Wikipedia! Rlquall 13:45, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * You are very correct that "initiation" has little or no stigma unless it is associated with hazing. However, most people would tend to see "initiation"  as consisting solely or almost solely of the ceremony indicating acceptance into a group more than the process leading up to that point.  At least that's my understanding as a native speaker of American English.  Besides countering systemic religious bias, I'm constantly becoming more of an advocate for an inclusive worldview.

Iglesia ni Cristo
I removed the article from that category because it already has its own category so putting it there might seem a litle redundant don't you think?23prootie 19:03, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Debt diet...

Iglesia ni Cristo project
I was wondering if you might want to consider contacting WikiProject Christianity and asking them whether they would agree to setting up a task force/work group to deal with this church rather than creating it as a separate project. There are already a rather large number of Projects that deal with Christianity, I think thirteen right now, and it might help to reduce the number of "competing" projects. The Christianity project might find the idea interesting if for no other reason than that one. Also, I personally think that, if created as a subunit of the larger Christianity project, it might have the chance of both a greater number of members and more useful contributions to its relevant pages. Anyway, I just wanted to make the suggestion, and thank you for taking the time to read this. Badbilltucker 17:36, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Quotes sections and Wikiquote
There's an editing dispute at Jim Johnston (composer) over a quote section. Someone removed the quotes section stating it wasn't neccisary. An anon uncivily restored it. Afterward, I moved the section to Wikiquote as it's Wikimedia's quote encyclopedia, the anon continues to restore it despite numerous reverts. Should the quotes section stay on the Wikipedia article (with a link to Wikiquote with the same content), or deleted? --LBMixPro &lt;Spe ako n 02:49, 4 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Looking at the quotes that are being restored, I would say you did the right thing - a) they are not sourced, and b) the article was beginning to look like Wikiquote. Editors should remember that Wikipedia is, at its core, an encyclopedia, and not an opportunity to list the best and worst quotations pertaining to an article's subject. If there are many quotations, please move them to Wikiquote and place a Wikiquote template on the article to inform readers that there are relevant quotations regarding the subject. However, I'd strongly urge you list this on WP:AN/I and ask for input, with a Diff of the quotes that are being removed. Also, maybe suggest semi-protection.

WikiProject query
Hi there, I am doing some clean up on the list of proposed WikiProjects. I noticed that WikiProject Iglesia ni Cristo has been listed for more than 60 days.

Re: Ram swarup Joon
Ram swarup Joon had written this book "History of the Jats" in Hindi in 1938 which was translated to English in by Lt. Col. Dal Singh in 1967. It has become more than 60 years and already it is on Jat History group. It has reached the age in India to become public domain. There is no copyright tag on Jat History group. We can think of making it a Wikisource. Thanks burdak 08:50, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Janina Gavankar.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Janina Gavankar.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Oden 03:28, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, thanks, he was a pain. I had a question, though: he seemed confused that he couldn't blank his own talk page. I tried to find a Wikipedia policy that bars this, so I could explain it to him, but I couldn't find anything. Could you give me some help here? Thanks. CalebNoble 08:47, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
