[edit] Baby Sign Response

Thanks for your inquiry. Yes, my son was born 3 weeks ago. However since he still has limited vision, and very little fine motor control, we haven't started using signs with him yet. I believe most things I've read recommend starting around 4-6 months... --Maelwys 14:22, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism help

I'm happy to help squelch nonsense on Wikipedia.  :) However, I am not an administrator and cannot ban this vandal. (And I should mention that s/he has not yet done anything to warrant a ban, but I imagine that'll change within the next fifteen minutes.) I put more warning tags on his/her talk space. When you next come up against vandalism (and you will), you can revert the changes as you did and then put warning templates on the offender's talk page. WP:VANDAL is a good place to get an overview on the different types of vandalism and the appropriate warnings, and I keep these talk page templates bookmarked so I can easily copy and paste the appropriate message. Just remember to put "subst:" before the template when posting on someone's talk page. (So instead of {{test2}} you put {{subst:test2}}. If the vandalism persists after frequent (and final) warnings, you can leave a message on the Administrator intervention against vandalism page. I'll keep an eye on this user, though. Happy editing! -- Merope 20:22, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm very happy to have helped! And thanks for the multilingual thanks--I adore other languages! -- Merope 20:34, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Response to your comment

Wow, I didn't think anyone even read my userpage, let alone noticed changes! I took out that bit because I de-stubbed an article about an obscure ancient Jewish royal, Mariamne, which hits on two of my fields of study. I've also done tweaks to a couple of articles about feminist philosophers, so it seemed disingenous to leave in. Besides, I'm trying to work more on adding good content to WP instead of just reverting and removing bad content, so I thought I'd take it out.

How's the vandal-fighting going?  :) -- Merope Talk 19:55, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Flattery

Aw! Well, though I do like you, I stole the sup talk bit from someone else. I've also modified my sig about 30 times in the past week. (Here are some former versions.) I like when users have a link to their talk page in their sig, since I'm a chatty-type person. And I love messages from other users, so anything to encourage that is a-okay! -- Merope Talk 22:55, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Nice! I should have realized that Mariamne came from the Hebrew for Miriam. As for putting in a subsection, the WP Manual of Style dictates that there should be a lead paragraph. Since the article is about two different women, the etymology of the name seems as good as anything for a lead. -- Merope Talk 23:24, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mozart vandal :)

I noticed the similarity. I have already blocked 84.16.40.178 [1] and left a warning on 219.190.100.71's page. The latter seems to have stopped after that. But have no fear, I have the page watchlisted. Do call me if you catch the vandal. - Aksi_great (talk) 13:04, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Map of Israel

Yeah, I'm sorry, I only edit war when I'm in a bad mood. :-( Usually I make comments on the talk page, but not recently. Ciao, Khoikhoi 16:25, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
