Zahnrad, if you haven't already, read my response on my talk page. --Boatcolour 15:21, 4 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

That helped clear things up -- thanks for the help. Zahnrad 15:23, 4 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

'Zahnrad',please do not confuse an expert's contribution with an uncivil response. It is inappropriate to ascribe me as being in such a pejorative state. Kindly edit but do not erase-unless the facts are different from those stated. --216.41.123.210

Re:Big Hole Brewing Company edit

Hi. The main reason I changed it to a Prod was simply because I was hesitant to delete it under CSD, and thought there may be some notability. That's all.   jj137 (talk) 21:04, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Awesome! Thanks. SilkTork *What's YOUR point? 11:19, 7 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

I see you're new here edit

Thanks for the comments on the same sex marriage page, however you fail to notice that the source of the maps are marked "self created". This goes against WP which I listed. You seem to have made several mistakes at wiki and keep dropping the ball, ie my talk page. This is not a personal attack, but rather a suggestion to read policy before reverting. I will be changing the page to reflect policy once again, if change back by yourself it will be considered vanalsim. Take careThright (talk) 07:53, 16 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

ps as your history indicates, you have an interest in the same sex marriage page. Please rememver policy trumps personal views.Thright (talk) 08:03, 16 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
:) I have been around for quite some time, however just got around to creating an account. IN any event I noticed that you know the wp on sources. This is an excellent thing, as you will know that someone cannot just create anything and add it to wiki. If you click on that map, that is what happened, "self created". Also, take a look at this; World_homosexuality_laws.svg‎ do you see the colours of green and what the colour means? It is almost the same for nations that support and don't and again self created!!!! ALso the box that they use indicating which nations support ssm is once again self created and not source! The group is a WP:soapbox. In any event thanks you for being a civil person. I like your professionalsim. Take careThright (talk) 08:32, 16 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Sorry for jumping in, but I must strongly disagree with Thright's assessment about this. Self-made graphics are perfectly welcome on Wikipedia - indeed, for copyright reasons, they're often the only images we can use. Thright is correct that all information in the graphic must be verifiable, but it's certainly not true that self-made images violate Wikipedia policy.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarcasticidealist (talkcontribs) 00:45, 16 March 2008

Throughput Accounting edit

Hi Zahnrad,

Please could you explain the reason for removing my editing (and I noticed you also removed TOCExperts's editing prior to removing mine). I am trying to improve the Throughput Accounting page [[1]] and edited it as such as well as adding links and references to authorities on the subject and to enable viewers to see credible information. Your reason for removing the links do not make sense. Please could you elaborate.

Thanks,

Zahnrad, [Woody] and [Kesh] have told me why you edited it and I have fixed it with their kind help. No need to reply.

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
