Thoroughbred horse Infobox template edit

Galopin has generously volunteered to help the Wikipedia:WikiProject Thoroughbred racing create an Infobox and has done a great job. Take a look at his talk page (User talk:Galopin#Template tests) for the two choices for the bottom box and those horses where I set up their box today using sample 1.

George Middleton edit

The George Middleton has been wikified, so you may as well remove it and the wikification tag attached to it from your sandbox.--Rmky87 15:33, 18 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Altar cloth edit

Dear Baudoin--in the article Altar cloth, on 18 July 2006, you added a link to http://www.yogichen.org/efiles/e0024.html. I just clicked on the link and it didn't work. The main page of the Website is still functional, so the article you cited may have been moved to a new location. If you would be so kind, could you take a look at the http://www.yogichen.org Website and see if you can locate the article and correct the link. If you can't find it, you could simply delete the reference on the Altar cloth article. Thank you very much for your help. Sincerely, MishaPan 04:20, 1 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

belief rebirth! edit

Dear Baudoin,

I'm reaching out to researchers and writers interested in the emerging, or re-emerging, movements inspired by ancient culture in the areas of religion/theology/mythology/culture...I spare-headed an artistic collaboration between a music professor, rock-vocalist and poet to create a modern multi-media experience of the cathardic journey inspired by ancient pagan poetic traditions; A romance to nature seen as a beautiful, divine and omnipotent woman.

It has singularly been my goal to respect tradition while allowing a free and spontaneous interpretation...I believe the utility of a quasi-rebirth of some aspects of the ancient religious tendancies would be achieved in an increase of tolerance, sympathy, and freedom of expression in our modern discoures on religion...so much needed. Until we have a cultural revolution tantamount to the politcal revolutions of the 18th and 19th centuries [aiding the rebirth of a government of, by and for the people] in the area of religion, I will not rest. Until the rebirth of religions which are of, by and for the people, as fluid as art, as deep as mythology and theology and as powerful as culture, I do not believe we will be truly free no matter what economic or political conditions surround us. Democracy without a democratic cultural is as frustrating as it is ineffectual.

If you have a moment could you peruse the poetry project site. http://www.misbeliever.net As you are a worker in these areas, having ebhanced the Wikipedia, the world's greatest encyclopedia, I would be very honored with any remarks or critisms you could offer either me or my collaborators.

thanks much,

sincerely
