Hey! Thanks a lot for the nice welcome. PerfectStorm 22:04, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- No problem. I'd suggest you write that town article at Crocker, South Dakota, since that seems to be the standard naming convention for places in the states (see category:Towns in South Dakota, for example). Take care. Flowerparty☀ 00:12, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you for your compliments!
I have to say that they are the nicest compliments that I've ever had. Thank you for your compliments! 百家姓之四 02:04, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sonnets
Please don't create articles which contain nothing but the lines of a poem. If you don't have anything to say about the sonnets, then maybe you shouldn't create the articles yet. Original source of poetry, etc., goes at Wikisource. User:Zoe|(talk) 01:57, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] RE: Popups Problem
No, I'm afraid that I don't know how or why that happens to you. Maybe you should post on the talk page of the navigation popups page. PCEevee talk 12:04, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Reverts
You seem to have double summaries for reverts. Try removing the "User:Voice_of_All/Revert/monobook.js" inclusion script, since this is already included in VoA/monobook. Thanks!Voice-of-All 18:30, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Different languages, different orthographies
Hello, your cooperation at Zygmunt Bauman is certainly appreciated. Note, however, that this "correction" is absolutely unwarranted, as profesor (one "s") is indeed the only correct spelling in Polish. Please try and avoid changing the spelling of non-English references or quotations unless you really know what you are doing. --Thorsten1 23:25, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Nonsense Article
A nonsense article was created at Jimmy Tolland, seems like a teen wanting a biography of himself. I've blanked the page for now, and I'm hoping an administrator can delete it. Thanks. PerfectStorm 00:34, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
PerfectStorm when a page like this appears tag it with {{db-nonsense}}. I've tagged it with that. An admin will delete it faster because she or he will notice the page in the category. ForestH2 00:36, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
- Also if it's nonsense use {{db-nonsense}}. Never use the tl. Just the db-nonsense. If it's a nothing article and just a little bit of something use {{db-empty}}. When you created it and you want it deleted use {{db-author}}. ForestH2 | + | √+ | √ | √- | - 15:34, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] C-c-c-c
Hello! I am sure this will interest you. Since you admitted to be User:C-c-c-c, who is banned, I reported that at User_talk:Andrew_Norman. As you can see, he let you off the hook for good behavior. To help you keep it up, I will keep an eye on you. --Zmaj 14:07, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Welcome to Esperanza!
Welcome, PerfectStorm, to Esperanza! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.
Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.
In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Proposals.
If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Celestianpower by email or talk page or the Esperanza talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an IRC Tutorial. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!

Thanks for watching my back and reverting the vandalism on my talk page... --JFreeman 03:42, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sweet dear PS
Sweet dear PS, please allow me to tell you I'm so sorry about the belated reply to your incredibly kind words to me - no matter what I do, I always find myself having someone nice unreplied! :( But even if that means to stay awake all night, I swear I'll reply every message one of these days, I promise ;) Regarding your points about the Comanche, those are very interesting issues, hun. At some point, there were as many as 20,000 Comanches or so, tho scattered through different groups. The comanche were never a unified entity, but rather many related groups that spoke a similar Shoshonean language (in fact, we Comanches are the children of the Shoshone, whether we like it or not! ;) In the late XIX and early XX century, a massive effort to wipe away the Comanche language took place by reeducating the children and discouraging all kind of communication in that language. Unfortunately, it succeeded, and now only a handful of elders have it as their native language. Very few of us speak it fluently, and tho there is no danger that it gets completely lost as it has been extensively documented, in a matter of years it will be but a memory of our past, and join many lost costumes and bits of our culture. I can barely speak a some words and phrases, mostly from hearing them from my grandpa and other old people. It is a personal challenge of mine to learn it and be able to speak it someday. I only wish I had the time! :(
That was a long lesson! I get carried away when speaking of these matters, so please forgive my talktative mood, hun. It is a great pleasure to meet you at last; I've seen your name around, and it's always a motive of joy to be approached by someone as kind, nice and bright as you. Have a great week! :) Big hugs, Phædriel ♥ tell me - 01:52, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] According to the Flag_of_Germany article:
Germany had 2 flags during 1934. So both flags in the dispute are correct. Do you know for sure what flag was flone during FIFA related events?--Greasysteve13 05:56, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- Fair enough. But I wanted to point out that both could have been used so it wasn’t necessarily vandalism. But considering we may well have a choice we should go with the less provocative of the two flags really.--Greasysteve13 12:37, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- Fair enough. But but the German speaking people may well have editing issue of their own. And the issue may be even more provocative. So who knows?--Greasysteve13 12:41, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah--Greasysteve13 12:42, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah--Greasysteve13 13:27, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah--Greasysteve13 12:42, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- Fair enough. But but the German speaking people may well have editing issue of their own. And the issue may be even more provocative. So who knows?--Greasysteve13 12:41, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Arbitration request on Kosovo
Dear Editor, since you have been involved in editing the Kosovo article in the last months, and that article has been the subject of long ongoing edit wars, your name is listed in the Request for Arbitration on this matter. You can make a statement here: Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration#Kosovo. Due to the large number of editors involved, however, I would to ask you to keep your statement concise and to the point. If you feel you have not been substantially involved in the disputes surrounding the Kosovo article, please do not remove your name from the Arbitration request, but rather make a short statement there explaining why you feel you have not been involved enough to be part it. To understand my reasons for requesting Arbitration, please read my statement on the Requests for Arbitration page. Best regards, Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 10:16, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
- Dear PerfectStorm, reading your recent comments and having a look at your edit history I would understand it if you do not want to become involved again in the Kosovo article. I just want to assure you that you do not have to write a statement in the Arb request if you prefer to stay out of this dispute. Your name is listed, however, and it would be inappropriate to remove it at this stage. Best regards, --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 07:30, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
