Here I would like to express my disgust at the London bombings that took place yesterday and my admiration for the London public and emergency services, who have proved an example for everyone. Rednaxela 8 July 2005 13:53 (UTC)


What is this page for anyway?

  • For other people to talk to you, mainly. For example, you mentioned on User talk:Paul A that you are fairly new and aren't sure how to sign off. To sign just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes). To sign with name and date/timestamp (the preferred method), type ~~~~ (4 tildes). Also, if you're interested in comics, why not add yourself to Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics and join the discussion? Okay, I'll stop advertising. Welcome. -leigh (φθόγγος) 21:54, Dec 14, 2004 (UTC)

Am putting this here for safe-keeping. Rednaxela 18:41, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC):

I'm afraid this has descended into mass deletions and personal attacks. There are some of us out here who would like to get on with editing instead of having to deal with the constant edit wars, disputes and name calling. I don't quite know how protecting the talk page would help, but something has got to be done. Rednaxela 13:25, 31 May 2005 (UTC)- Calling people Nazis is definitely not the behaviour of a good wikipedian and this page is letting the entire concept down.Reply

I'd prefer not to protect a talk page since they'd have no place to discuss the conflict (user talk pages I guess). Try another dispute resoltuion method. (new sig) This page is Broken 17:00, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
It is quite a shame. From what I gather from the talk pages, however, it seems that most of the trouble is coming from a small group (or even one user). The arbitration case Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration#User:Zivinbudas will hopefully create an injunction against Zivinbudas and the problems will subside. This is certainly not typical of our articles. I don't think it right to protect the talk page and previous article protections have failed. We must sadly wait for dispute resolution to end this conflict. This page is Broken 19:28, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Image:MVaughan.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:MVaughan.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag, so its copyright status is therefore unclear. Please add a tag to let us know its copyright status. (If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know on the image description page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Otherwise, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. Thanks so much. Ngb 17:42, 14 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

Re: Merge on Superted & Further Adventures of Superted.

edit

Hi. I have reverted your merge of these 2 articles, since this article had been suggested for merge on 2 seperate occasions already and this has not been welcomed. Please read the discussion page of the Superted article and you will understand that the 2 stories are of vastly different qualities and we did not feel it was suitable for them to be merged. Also, the merge which you carried out was done without consultation of other viewers of the article. Please do not merge the articles or add the information back without consulting other users. Thank you for your assistance. Thor Malmjursson 22:04, 2 May 2006 (UTC) Thor's pet yackReply

Hi Rednaxela. Sorry about the prob with this one. I leapt on it as a merge because in the edit summary you quite clearly typed Merge stories. If you had made it clearer that it was not a merge, I would not have been so hasty to leap on you and shred you. My apologies for going off the deep end.

Sheffield

edit

re the Sheffield article, sorry, but exactly what the hell is that "at least get it right" jibe about? You got it wrong in stating that Sheffield FC play at the world's oldest ground in Crosspool. It is Hallam FC who play there, Sheffield FC play at the Coach and Horses Ground (AKA Stadium of Bright) in Dronfield. As far as I can see, all you did to "make it right" was add a comma and delete the indefinite article. Please, jibes like that do not endear you to other wikipedians.

Governors list

edit

Sorry to revert you, but the current governors remain on the list until they leave office; it is, after all, a list of current governors. The transitions were done on a prolonged basis in previous years; I know there was a long process with the last race in Washington, and there some reversions around that time.

Dan rank

edit

I noticed that also. The changes to dan rank were not as egregious as the changes at the kyu article. Happy B's changes on kyu were, to my knowledge, flat out wrong, so I reverted them. On dan rank, he changed them to what I believe are valid alternate pronunciations. It is my opinion that his new versions are the less common usages, but I was hesitant to unilaterally revert because it's possible that I am wrong. If you'd like to revert to the previous version, I'll support it. Bradford44 17:38, 2 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Department of Health (United Kingdom), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Monitor (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

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.
