[edit] Please be more careful when creating your own archive!!!!!!

Why did you move my archive page to your user space? You took my history with it and destroyed my archive. Now all I have is a redirect to your page. I can't recreate it without deleting the existing page and moving your archive back after I revert it. Thanks a lot. Why didn't you just copy the page?

I am going to ask User:Gwernol for help in fixing this problem.

BTW: The archive template links to my talk page -- not yours. I suggest you copy the template. -Will Pittenger 02:56, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

If you don't fix this by the time I login tomorrow, I may fix it for you. I would rather you did it yourself. That way you control the name of the template, wording, layout, and so on.
I have moved the archive back to Will's talk page where it belongs. Please do be more careful in the future. This could easily look like vandalism. Thanks, Gwernol 03:07, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Gwernol fixed the problem almost instantly. I was barely done adding my request when it was complete. Please note that I added a comment to the next item. If you use that system, it will create the archive page for you. Use my archive settings as an example. Use the code from George's page, but where I have my username, put yours instead. -Will Pittenger 03:16, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your can archive without all the work

If you want to auto-archive, check out George Money's Auto Archive code. It has instructions here. -Will Pittenger 03:05, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

If you use the auto archive system, please let it create your archive page. Save yourself the trouble. Will (Talk - contribs) 03:12, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] About the comment you left for Gwernol

I relocated the comment you left on Gwernol's user page [62] to his Talk page [63]. I removed your inclusion of the RC Patrol userbox as it would not be appropriate on a Talk page. -- Gogo Dodo 06:23, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please don't change what others wrote in talk pages

Please don't change what other users wrote in talk pages. When you suggested that I add {{User wikipedia:RC Patrol}}, you edited an existing section rather than using the + tab. You also reformatted the section using ----. As I have repeatedly told you, most editors frown on use of ----, including me. Will (Talk - contribs) 06:40, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I already have {{User wikipedia:RC Patrol}} on my page.

I already have {{User wikipedia:RC Patrol}} on my page. -Will Pittenger 06:41, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

BTW: When you want to suggest an user box, please use the template {{tl}} as I have done. When you transclude the template, you add categories to the page. {{tl}} simply links to the user box page. For user namespace templates (like {{User:Will Pittenger/User Boxes/WCIC}}), use {{[[Page Name]]}}. Will (Talk - contribs) 06:48, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Oye Vey!"

I make-a da joke-a. They can't all be winners..... Gzuckier 16:07, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Looking back at it again, i think you may have misconstrued; the "The article deteriorates ... gets gutted before the first period." comment was some random anonhole. I couldn't resist adding "The Protocols of the Elders of the Non-Goyim suggests just such a strategy!!" in an attempt to out-satirize him. Gzuckier 17:05, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stuff

You may want to check out WP:USERBOX. Also, the "Sixtyseven" is because my last name starts with "S".

While you're at it, I suggest you read Wikipedia:Avoid neologisms.

And don't link every single word to a separate article; it looks bad. DS 16:21, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Disappearing image

I think it was probably deleted after an IfD, Ludvikus, but I didn't pay attention so I can't provide a link. Sorry. SlimVirgin (talk) 04:21, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Praemonitus Praemunitus and Praemonitus praemunitus

Hello,

I see you've restored the original content at Praemonitus Praemunitus and eventually put the disambiguation back at Praemonitus praemunitus. Since I think you intended to make the former about the book, I removed the other content from that page and left a link to the disambiguation. I'm not sure whether we need an article about that edition of the book or whether it should be merged to Protocols of Zion - what do you think? (Reply here, or on the article talk page, or on my talk page, whichever you like; I'm watching all of them.) --Alynna 21:34, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

REPRODUCED FROM YOUR USER PAGE:

I believe we absolutely do need an article on this edition of thr "book." Protocols of Zion is already too long an article. And it concentrates much on the content and distribution of this infamous text. I want Wikipedia to present the form and actually facts relating to the literary event which produced the Warrant for Genocide.

It is already a practice of WP have articles on historically important books. Unfortunately, this ugly and stupid book has seen the light of day and - like a germ, bacteria, or virus, has reproduced itself in many forms - and now lives on the WEB. So I want Wikipedia to be, inter alia, the ultimate source of facts about this plagiarism.
Also, I believe that Wikipedia is extremely democratic in its nature, so that what its founders want it to be, and what it is already becoming, are two different things. In brief, WP is becoming the ultimate (at least) source of knowledge for the commom man (and woman) about anything which holds a significant interest for people.
I wish I could write like Lincoln, or D'Israeli in my first draft, but I cannot. English, like in the case of Conrad, was not my first language. But he had a linguistic genius of the kind that's not mine.
So I hope to get the asaistance of other WP editors and writers to improve or develop my articles further!!!
Best Wishes, and Seasons Greetings, Yours truly, Ludvikus 23:22, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Okay, I wish you luck in writing more about that edition. I don't know anything about it, but I'm always available for cleanup and wikification questions. Happy editing, Alynna 23:30, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Can you give me the WORD-FOR-WORD translation of the above?

Yours truly,--Ludvikus 06:33, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Actually, I know 3 0f the 4 words:

  • протоколы = Protocols
    • Yes or even minutes as meeting minutes
  • засѣданій = ?????
    • Meetings, conferenses
  • сіонскихъ = Zionist
    • or at least Zion
  • мудрецовъ = Elders/Sages/Wise Men
    • Yes

[edit] Double double Warhol Warhol

It's a little bit goofy, but certainly Warhol himself wouldn't mind (you know, it might be incautious to suppose anything about what he would think). I don't think you'd get community approval but you could certainly try by bringing it up on the talk page. As a related idea, has there ever been a portrait done of Warhol that is multiple? I can't think of one, but maybe there is ... Antandrus (talk) 05:08, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Oh, I don't see why one can't be both a nature lover and an admirer of an artistic and media genius :). I'm as fascinated by his personality as I am by his work, and his story -- such as the Valerie Solanas episode -- is wilder than most fiction. As of the doubled pic -- I don't think it really helps anything, since our point is to make an encyclopedia article rather than a tribute page (in that case, if you were putting up a website about Warhol... definitely yes). Cheers, Antandrus (talk) 06:36, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
