Nausea (book)

Are you sure Sartre wasn't the first and only person to refuse the Nobel? Are you also sure he said "merely" instead of "only"? My source was the writer's almanac. What's yours? — Clarknova 15:20, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

Oh I see. You addressed that in the talk page. Disregard then. —Clarknova 18:25, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

GHII Green/Orange chords

From what I heard, they aren't in GHII, but I don't have an official source. I checked out the talk page, but I saw nothing about it (as you had said on your edit summary). Can you point it out for me? - JNighthawk 13:22, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

1-2-3/Yes

• Noted your comments on Clouds advertising - I admit the piece was clumsily written - trying to include citations, and don't have the Wiki skills to do it - but like it or not, yes basically copied 1-2-3, don't take my word for it - check the facts! And Jon Anderson would be the first to admit it - certainly many times in live concerts - why don't you ask him? Or suggest some more tasteful way to do the inclusion. It is meant to be real history after all, not just accepted history.....but I do understand your irritation - did you write the original piece? I'm always reluctant to tread on someone's literary toes, it's not nice. If that's the case, I do apologise, but urge you to find a way (much more subtle than I have managed so far!) to include the influence of 1-2-3. Thanks "Matthew.hartington 01:26, 3 January 2007 (UTC)"

Fact check

Hello. I noticed your revert to Animal Crossing (Wii) and have this request to make: if you have a decent knowledge of video games, can you please check the rest of 65.11.20.111's video-game-related contributions for factual accuracy? It would be exteremely helpful, since I really do not know one way or the other. Thanks. —BazookaJoe 05:22, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Nevermind. It seems that User:SCEhardt has taken care of it. —BazookaJoe 05:23, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

The Nice

Hi, I saw you'd made some comments on this article a while back. In my view, there could be some improvements which I've left on its talk page. I'm a fairly new editor so I don't want to tread on anyone's toes. Let me know if you think I'm barking! --Rodhullandemu 00:09, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
