Blue Stars Drum and Bugle Corps

Thanks for taking a stab at identifying the editorial needs for this article. Unfortunately, your WP:POV tag was reverted as a "drive-by tag." I really don't know how to deal with editing the article without getting into an edit war with User:GWFrog, as he reverts all edits on the dozens of drum and bugle corps articles he's worked on. Any suggestions? Mesconsing (talk) 22:31, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Dementia13. I've declined the GOCE request now. Thanks for the catch. @Mesconsing, is it time for Dispute Resolution? --Stfg (talk) 17:57, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

RE Amor Prohibido

I would to thank you for copyediting the article. I have replied on the talk page to your comments. Best, Jona^{talk to me} 02:45, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Copyeditor's Barnstar
	For your help in getting Episode 2 (Twin Peaks) to Featured status; I doubt the process would have been as smooth or successful without your prose polishes. :) GRAPPLE X 11:37, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks and congratulations. That, to my knowledge, is the first article I've helped bring to that level. I'm glad to have that as my first, because David Lynch is my favorite director. I like the work you've done on that article, and I'm glad that it's been recognized. Dementia13 (talk) 00:06, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Copy editing favor

Hey, do you think you could do a copy edit of History of Western role-playing video games? I'd do it myself, but it's in the middle of WP:FAC and I've already done some technical fixes and cast a partial support for it, so I'd like to avoid getting too involved so there's no impropriety. I'd recommended getting a copy edit during it's WP:GAN last month, and a couple people have recommended it in the current discussion. If you're not able, I totally understand. Thanks. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 15:35, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

OK. Sounds like an interesting subject, too. Dementia13 (talk) 16:56, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Great! And yes, it is; I really enjoyed reviewing it. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 17:07, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

I put it on the GOCE requests page to make sure you get proper credit for it. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 17:45, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. Dementia13 (talk) 17:55, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

MIDI (reply)

Re your msg of 18 August: be glad to help with a MIDI WikiProject. It has been quite a while since I glanced through many articles, but as I recall most were created piecemeal BC (before CITATIONS) and were helpful but not well integrated. I'm familiar with the electronics and specs (programmed some translation tables once) and still have a couple of reference books somewhere. Twang (talk) 03:11, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

List of Game & Watch games

I pulled the ce tag out of the article before noticing that you were working the article. Removing that tag should help prevent anyone else from making that same mistake, so I left it out. Sorry if it caused any confusion. --Nouniquenames 23:09, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi Dementia13. After all the work you've done on it, I'd like to give you credit for it in the drive. Do you plan to complete it? Cheers, --Stfg (talk) 15:33, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi, yes, I'm working on it now. Dementia13 (talk) 16:49, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. It's included in the barnstars below. You don't need to go back to the drive page to mark it completed, as I've done that. Best, --Stfg (talk) 15:14, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
