All of this information can be daunting, but if you have a question and can't find the answer, you can always ask me on my talk page or go to Wikipedia:Where to ask a question.

Your user page

edit

Inkybutton, you may want to read the policy on user pages, specifically this portion: Wikipedia:User page#What can I not have on my user page? Blogs are explicitly disallowed. See also the policy Wikipedia is not a free host, blog, or webspace provider. Because it's against policy, it may be listed at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion if it isn't changed. Thanks! -- stillnotelf has a talk page 04:13, 18 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for fixing it so quickly! Hope your hunger strike 40 hour famine goes well. -- stillnotelf has a talk page 05:02, 18 March 2006 (UTC)Reply
Although you removed it an anonymous editor keeps adding the blog back [1]. Any idea what's going on? --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) ( T | C | A ) 22:31, 18 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello

Hello, Noel. Thought I'd say hi to you over here as well. Quite a bit of work at the CKB. Grigory DeepdelverTalk 21:35, 26 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Archie has always been a male name.

edit

In your profile it says you are male and single. But I thought Archie is a female name... Can you tell me what Archie means? --inky 08:33, 30 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Archie has always been a male name. "Archie" is a reduced form of the English name "Archibald," which means something like "nobly bold." Some famous Archies include Archie Andrews, Archie Bunker, Archibald Cox, Archie MacPherson. Archibald Primrose &c. Arch O. La Grigory Deepdelver 11:01, 30 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

NetGuide

edit

Hi Inky! You should now find a model Wikipedia article in the place of the former page-long advertising puff for the magazine. The article includes details of the main competitors to NetGuide, complete with links - well, what did they expect?

As for someone leaving a talk page message telling others not to revert or edit - well, that simply will not do. This is a Wiki and editing is what we do here. If you see such a message again, please feel free to edit the article regardless. ЯEDVERS 11:25, 3 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

You tagged it as "remove afd" but you removed a link to a (looking fairly) relevant page. AfD closing spree or like me, you copy paste summaries :o -- Tawker 14:29, 14 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Christian Knowlege Base. Care to return? Arch O. La Grigory Deepdelver 01:15, 29 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Counterpoints:

  • The Old Catholic Encyclopedia scared me away. Also, I think you damned CW when you featured Hell ;)
  • Maybe it is a JW thing. The cross doesn't bother me. If it bothers you, then how about a portrait of Jesus?
  • Have fun with Linux. I use Darwin (well, really MacOS X, but I log in as >console often enough).
