Famous VSLs edit

Hi WW, long time no see. I note that (at the article Volume of Sacred Law) you tagged for citation the description of the George Washington Inaugural Bible as "most famous". Can you think of another individual VSL that is as well known? The GW bible got a lot of media mention when it was used at the inauguration of the elder President Bush. Is there another Masonic Bible that has received as much media mention? (or even any media mention?) Blueboar (talk) 12:17, 14 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the reply. OK... I'll tweak the language. Blueboar (talk) 03:05, 15 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Symmetry edit

Thanks for your calming down effort, but I'm not seeing your symmetric comments at Blueboar's page or history (I'm a long time participant, organizer and moderator in quite a few medium to large communities having no presumption of evil intent, and I do insist on naming that particular set of replies moronic).
Would you please ask him/her/it to refrain from personal attacks, opinionated denials, etc as presented on Talk:Anti-Masonry?
I've also restored two of the three comments on that talk page since only the last one *was* a personal attack indeed (and SarekOfVulcan didn't pass the neutrality test, heh). Thanks again. --Gvy (talk) 10:19, 7 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Suzanne Storrs edit

Thanks for leaving the issues tags on the Suzanne Storrs article, WegianWarrior, since I did a bit of digging afterward and was a little surprised at what I found. Added multiple links to the article (at least 13, maybe more) and also two more External links, including her New York Times obit, which turned out to be a full article in 1995. I didn't realize it but turns out she married one of the wealthiest guys in the country, Lionel Pincus of Warburg Pincus, in 1967, and left acting to direct various charitable causes such as trying to make it easier for women on the skids to keep their own children. Interesting. She only lived to 60, however, then her husband subsequently took up with a Jordanian princess, leading to a family war between the princess and Storrs and Pincus's sons over an opulent apartment in Midtown Manhattan. Thanks again for the issues tags since I certainly didn't know any of this beforehand and I found it all rather interesting and, as I noted, a little surprising. Storrs and Pincus were unusually close in age, which is rather remarkable in itself in circumstances like this. (Predictably, the princess could have been Storrs' daughter as far as age is concerned.) And you never know how it went for these 1950s-60s actresses until you actually take a look. Anyway, I think the article wound up with more depth and interest than it had initially. Happy Thanksgiving, WegianWarrior! Upsmiler (talk) 15:45, 24 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

New photo of a crewmember of the HNoMS Sleipner edit

Hello there, I have a photo you may be interested in, of an officer on the HNoMS Sleipner circa 1898. It is my sincere hope this is the correct way in which to contact you, as I have spent hours trying to figure out how. Also, I have a question about obtaining a decent resolution image of the HNoMS Sleipner, for a family member of the person in the photo of an officer on the Sleipner, mentioned above. He was quite an interesting person and I have enjoyed my research on him.

My apologies if this is not the correct place to contact you. I have no idea how this all works. Thank you for your valuable time.

Sincerely, Jnarrin (talk) 18:58, 24 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Non-free rationale for File:Tordenskjold post 1918 Amsterdam.png edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Tordenskjold post 1918 Amsterdam.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:42, 27 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Photo crew sleipner in better quality edit

Hello WegianWarrior,

I have read your article about HNoMS Sleipner. You also posted the photo: "The crew and cadets aboard Sleipner photographed in 1904."

I think there is someone I know on that photo, but the quality is to bad. Do you have this photo in a better quality? If you have that, can you send me that photo to harryoudewolbers@gmail.com?

thanks in advance

Tak:Freemasonry edit

Hello. With regards to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Freemasonry#I just created a bunch of vector graphics for officer jewels.2C etc: I apprecaite your comment that the graphics are nicely done. If you point me towards some online grpahics of the different jewels used in Norway, I will pout them on my "to do" list for creating vector graphics and adding them to Wikipedia.

disruptive editing? edit

where? if you gonna accuse me for something and then censoring my posts then point out WHAT i said who was "disruptive editing"!

BRING UP OR SHUTUP! 31.209.16.177 (talk) 13:23, 13 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

And that is why you're considered disruptive... I guess following Wikipedia guidelines and policies are beneath you, and all you care about is to push your silly little conspiracy theories as the TRUTH!. I do pity you, dear anon IP. WegianWarrior (talk) 15:17, 13 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
It is fair for the IP to ask the reasons to be explained to them for the warnings, why they are disruptive etc. They are going about it in the wrong way yes, but it's reasonable for them to ask what they did and for them to have the rules explained to them. I am now unfortunately having to give you a warning however for not assuming good faith and making personal attacks against the IP. Calling people's beliefs silly and saying you pity them is not civil and is not acceptable no matter whether you agree with their perspective or not.
