hi my name is dave

Akiva Eiger
I noticed you changed Akiva Eiger to Eger, if you google them it is clear that Eiger is far more common. Unless you can prove otherwise I am going to change it back, but note that there are different ways of spelling it. Martin 14:01, 13 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry but an encyclopedia cannot use you as a reference, the fact is that Eiger is much more common. Martin 14:15, 13 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Well I have moved it properly now, but only because I could find multiple resources that list both as correct. Martin 14:28, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Google gives 13,000 hits for Eiger and 1,000 for Eger. As it is only a transcription of a Hebrew name, most popular use should dictate naming of this page. JFW | T@lk  16:20, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

I saw on User_talk:Bluemoose that you have family records that prove the name Eger. Now I am aware JH Sinason did a biography on him. What spelling does he use? This will help settle matters. In the meantime I've moved the page back to the most common use, as this is Wikipedia policy. JFW | T@lk  16:29, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your message on my talk page, but I would just like to point out that here at wikipedia, we run things by Wikipedia policy, which means that Ayinyud 00:36, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
 * 1) I have no authority over the name of the article; we work by the most common spelling, and that's that;
 * 2) ancestry of members means nothing, as far as I know. You may have noticed that I myself am a descendent of the Alter Rebbe; feel free to put a link up on your user page, but leave the article name to general consensus.


 * Well we seemed to have already resolved the issue Yellowmellow45 16:23, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

Tnx for the picture

TalkSPORT
Excuse me, are you an expert on the British media? I am merely giving an objective summary explaining the sometimes controversial nature of station's output. Please allow me to do this. 195.92.67.77 00:17, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I think the fact that the station does not currently employ any female presenters is a valid comment. Although I agree with you (Yellomellow24) on the "attracting listeners who might read tabloids such as the Daily Mail and The Sun." it is a bit of a generalisation.

 * I think you're right, but I also think that this person has a chip on their shoulder for some strange reason, is also particularly aggressive and should create an account too.Yellowmellow45 18:00, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Excuse me, what chip is that? I happen to abhore censorship, especially of objective information. I back Keith Greer's compromise, and the passage regarding famale presenters and the link to Steven Wells's Guardian critique must be restored forthwith (if necessary, add a link to a more favourable viewpoint). Oh yes, and I never said you weren't British.195.92.67.70 23:56, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
 * No response. I did it anyway. 195.92.67.76 18:24, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Please see WP:RfPP. 195.92.67.70, your addition of the words "unlike most media" is against WP:NPOV and WP:OR, so I am warning you not to add it again. As for "right wing" or "no non-white" broadcasters, you guys need to read WP:NPA and work that out. Do not simply revert. Voice -of-  All T 17:41, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Image sizes
If an image has no hard-coded size, then its size will follow the viewer's preferences. For example, I have my preferences set up to display thumbnail images at 300 pixels, so when you added an explicit size to the image, you actually made it smaller for me. Pissant 21:14, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
 * OK, when you reset the pictures, they appeared smaller to me. What can we do? Yellowmellow45 21:25, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Support a larger default? Do as you please with that article. I need to go.  Best wishes.  Pissant 21:32, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
