Arkady Rose

On hiatus

Please note that I am on extended wiki-hiatus for the foreseeable future and will not be checking this page for comments or notes. I can be reached via David Gerard, though I can't imagine any incidences when this will actually be neccessary. Uh, I seem to be back....

Welcome back! - UtherSRG (talk) 23:57, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Welcome back, again! :) - UtherSRG (talk) 06:35, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! I don't seem to be able to stay away... ;-) Arkady Rose 06:39, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Welcome back. —Nightstallion (?) 23:54, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

User comments

Did you do Wish (fiction)? If so, well done! Excellent short article.

Erm... no, that wasn't me! I haven't even looked at Wikipedia for a few months. What made you think it was me? Arkady Rose 22:17, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Btw, you surely mean 'excited' not 'exited'? justinep@livejournal

User talk pages are not usually used to point out spelling mistakes on user pages like that. They are for discussion of articles the users concerned are involved in. And you don't even appear to be a Wikipedia contributer. Arkady Rose 20:08, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Simply stopping by to say: "Hi"...

Hello there Arkady and very merry unbirthday to you as well. DrWho42 04:55, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Hmm, I'm perplexed by the number of people who seem to think there are three As in my name. There are only two.... (I suppose I really ought to check my user talk page more often.) Arkady Rose 01:03, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Well, now... That misspelling simply went past me.. Hehm, I'm retroactively sorry in any case. DrWho42 01:54, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

London meet is TUESDAY 9th, not Wednesday 10th!

Update: Jimbo got his days of the week confused. This is now happening TUESDAY 9th, same place. You may care to sign up again or not - David Gerard 10:42, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Facebook about to be deleted

Hi, as one of the people with a picture on Wikipedia:Facebook, figured you might be interested in knowing that it is up for deletion at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Images of Wikipedians (2nd nomination). - Ta bu shi da yu 02:43, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up. :-) Arkady Rose 14:50, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

London Meetup: 12 January 2008

Hi! There's going to be a London Wikipedia Meetup coming Saturday, 12 January 2008. If you are interested in coming along take part in the discussion over at Wikipedia:Meetup/London7. The discussion is going on until tomorrow evening and the official location and time will be published at the same page late Thursday or early Friday. Hope to see you Saturday. —Psychonaut (talk) 06:24, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

London Meetup: April 13th

Hi Arkady Rose. There's been a fair bit of toing and froing with the organisation of this London meetup. We've settled on a central London (Holborn) pub location in the end, and also a lunchtime meet-up. This seems to be attracting more interest, and so looks much more likely to actually happen!

So Wikipedia:Meetup/London 8 next Sunday lunchtime (April 13th 1pm)

London Meetups - Sunday May 11th

That was pretty successful. We're hoping to have regular meetups in London. The next one is on May 11th Wikipedia:Meetup/London 9. Another Sunday lunch in Holborn. Come along! -- Harry Wood (talk) 11:50, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

I am getting baptised on that day; however even if I weren't, such meet-ups are highly impractical for me and I have no intentions of attending them and prefer not to receive any further invites. Arkady Rose (talk) 14:52, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

News

I was sat on my sofa watching the news this evening and unexpectedly saw you on my TV! I thought wow, I know her from Wikipedia :-) Hope all is well. — Nicholas (reply) @ 20:13, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Sciurumimus restoration

Hi, thanks for your restoration! I can see there are some anatomical issues that would need to be fixed, which I'll outline here, but you could also consider posting it (and future efforts) at the dinosaur paleoart review site: [1]

First, the eye is way too big, what would be externally visible would fit the inner ring of the sclerotic ring of the skeleton. Judging from the placement of the hyoid bone, the neck would also be deeper near the head. There also seems to be missing a dewclaw. The "thumb" would likely be parallel with the other finger, and not slightly opposable, as shown. FunkMonk (talk) 20:37, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback - it was hard to see whether or not it had a dew claw from the fossil specimen so thanks for clarifying it should have one. I should have a fixed version up within 24 hours. Arkady Rose (talk) 22:00, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Nice, and thanks! As far as I know, only some coelurosaurs lacked dewclaws/halluxes. FunkMonk (talk) 22:28, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Any news on this? FunkMonk (talk) 21:15, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

I haven't looked at it in about a year - massive case of Life(TM) getting in the way - but you've prompted me to take another look at it now! :-) Arkady Rose (talk) 20:59, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
