[edit] Battlezone

Sure, if you consider misinformation about Battlezone "vandalism". Ed Rotberg did NOT design Red Baron. Rich Adam did. All you are doing is spreading misinformation by editing the truth. -- User:AtariKee via email

I found sources on the internet that indicate that Ed Rotberg wrote Red Baron. However it isnt too clear so the neutral view adopted by your next edit is good --2mcm 02:40, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

"An Atari programmer named Ed Rotberg was the first to put two and two together effectively and use vector animation to create an immersive 3D video game. In fact, he created two at the same time: a tank simulator called Battlezone, and an aerial combat adventure called Red Baron."

The source you site is an article by Jeremy Parish from 1up.com, who happens to be a friend of mine :). I notified him of this error long ago and he told me that he would fix it. It appears that he never got to it. Feel free to contact him to verify this information. I also encourage you to contact Ed Rotberg directly and he will also verify this information. A Google search will turn up his contact info quite readily. I will admit, however, that I was wrong about who actually wrote Red Baron. That honor belongs to Rich Moore, not Rich Adam. Moore also wrote Lunar Lander, which was Atari's first vector graphics arcade game. And my apologies for my tone in my email. I'm a bit new to this Wiki stuff. -- User:AtariKee

[edit] Category:User 1337

Welcome to the 1337 club, and thanks for making the other two templates I was too lazy to make... Redwolf24 04:27, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you!

For reverting the vandalism to my user page. It's much appreciated! FCYTravis 01:48, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Re: n:Wikinews:Story preparation/Results of 2005 New Zealand General Election

Consider yourself pressed! That article desparately needs attention from someone able/willing to work on it. If you ask in #wikinews you can probably find volunteers to help cover the event live. - Amgine/^talk

Re: Removal of an image from New Zealand general election, 2005. Thanks Matthew. I didn't realise websites were exempt from the general rule. Nurg 02:17, 17 September 2005 (UTC)

Image:NewZealandElectorates2005-Labeled.png has some electorate names mispelt. Should be Epsom, Waimakariri and Tainui. Nurg 02:34, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] XHTML

Hello, I see you have know HTML, if you also know XHTML, you should add yourself to the new XHTML category at User xhtml :) --Wulf 04:05, 19 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Vim user template

Following the be bold guideline, and getting the idea from your user page, I've created an actual Vim template and corresponding Vim users category for use in my {{babel}} box without having to resort to the method you did in creating your own User/Babel page.

[edit] Auckland meetup

Just to let you know that a meetup is planned in Auckland for the 25th of June (see Wikipedia:Meetup/Auckland for more details), and that you are cordially invited. GeorgeStepanek\^talk 00:21, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Intel C Compiler

I started Intel C Compiler, on the grounds that even a stub was better than nothing. I just noticed you had a red link to it, saying you'd like to create this article. Please feel free to dig in and improve it, and/or rewrite it completely. I don't know much about icc, it was just that the absence of any article at all on the topic has annoyed me for a while. :) --Steven Fisher 23:48, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
