You're welcome

You're welcome, as the name states ^_^.

Comparison of Programming Languages

Instead of of having 100 languages, let's bring back JScript and QtScript. We can have 102 languages and divide them into six coloumns of 17. I will edit the page immediately after I have wrote this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ishvara7 (talk • contribs) 03:53, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Vermont seal

Howdy Devin Cook. The great seal of Vermont does not have a color version. The colorized version appearing on wikipedia is not official, probably the well-meaning intention of a talented and studious wikipedian to make more cheerful and admistedly colorless state seal. Please direct questions to the Vermont Secretary of State, links are on the article Deb Markowitz. Thanks. CApitol3 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 14:36, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi DevinCook. Are you the author of the illustration?CApitol3 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 23:30, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

• The color seal? No, I'm not the author. I found the image already in use on Wikipedia when I was reading the Vermont pages. -DevinCook (talk) 23:33, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

That would be great, thanks!

• Should we add the California Template to the end of the page? I've never been that far north, unfortunately. -DevinCook (talk) 11:46, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

That sounds like a great idea - if you would be kind enough to, that would be appreciated! NorCalHistory (talk) 15:16, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, much appreciated! NorCalHistory (talk) 02:12, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Flags

Your flag images look great. Thanks for all the updates on images and pages. Mingusboodle (talk) 12:26, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

• Thank you. Flags are quite easy to create - so the work required is far less than what it would appear. :) Anyway, are they any flags you would like turned into SVGs? Eventually I plan create versions of all the Bear Flags from the California Revolution. Have a great day -DevinCook (talk) 14:43, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

California update

California does set the tone for the nation.. Infact, the only reason I put that on is because someone else took it off, I was just cleaning it up. Sir, please don't misunderstand me I was just replacing ORIGINAL TEXT! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dwilso (talk • contribs) 17:25, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

• It was not meant as a personal attack. While I agree that California does have significant influence in social-politics, that is mostly a point-of-view opinion. People in Massachusetts and New York would also argue the same point. As a result, it shouldn't be stated as fact when it interpretation based on opinion. Cheers. -DevinCook (talk) 19:07, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for editing so much.

Thanks for editing my article of the AVGN so much, and standing up for it to be saved.

Not sure the basis for your undoing the changes made to the Cal Republic page

Devin Cook: It appears you undid the changes to the Cal Republic page and the Ide page related to the title of William B. Ide during the Bear Flag Revolt/California Republic. In my view the original language misleads readers. There is no primary source authority for Ide holding the title of "President." In point of fact, I have been unable to find any materials prior to 1880 that in any manner uses the term president in relation to Ide. Ide never called himself "president" [see the Wambough letter of Ide published in 1880]and neither did any of the other contemporary writers. I do not think either of us wants the page to disseminate inaccurate information.

Thomas Jefferson

I can't tell if this edit was intentional or not, but it removed a great deal of content from the Jefferson article. Just FYI. - auburnpilot talk 02:09, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

• Honest mistake. I was restoring the text from an earlier version. I must have pasted over more content than planned. I will repair it.-DevinCook (talk) 02:11, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
  • I figured as much, but no worries. It looks like an anon-editor fixed it already. Thanks, - auburnpilot talk 02:13, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
    • This page needs to be semi-protected.-DevinCook (talk) 02:14, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
