[edit] Dates

Could you direct me to where it says that all full dates should be linked? I'd just like to see the reasoning behind it, since I personally see none. Dan 06:19, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

WP:DATE#Dates_containing_a_month_and_a_day It is so users who have set special formatting for their dates can see the correct formatting. Paul^C/_T+ 06:26, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

I've been there and I still can't find where it says it has to be done that way. I'm not sure what it means by "so users who have set special formatting for their dates can see the correct formatting." That doesn't make much sense to me. Dan 06:31, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Okay, the first sentence in the direct section that I linked to:

If a date includes both a month and a day, then the date should normally be linked to allow readers' date preferences to work.

Maybe it would make sense if you actually took the time to read some of the information at the link. Paul^C/_T+ 06:37, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Golden eagle on Linden Lane

Hi there. I answered your question on the Boston College talk page, but I figured I'd post it here too in case you don't regularly watch the page.

Apparently, there's no way of knowing unless you're an ornithologist. See this article from The Heights for a detailed answer to your question. Cheers! hoopydink^{Conas tá tú?} 01:39, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Alumni, etc.

Hey- I feel like there're a lot more notable alumni at Buckley. I don't know if you have any of the recent mailing pamphlets, but those usually give updates. I think they now have them online, too, but I don't have the password. As far as pop culture, I'm sure there're at least a few more connections that we don't know. Maybe ask around at the school, if you really feel like digging; although e-mail is another good tool for that. The article can probably be expanded to include curriculum, mission statement, and much more, it just depends on how much work is put into it. I'm willing to lay out an expansion plan, possibly based on the basic outline of other school articles such as Brown or Oxford. So, let me know what you're thinking, oh, and good luck in first your year at college, -Caz

[edit] Twaker bot

The bot is extremely helpfull in many many cases, but it just is not bullet proof. Just kick its butt at times when needed. -- Kim van der Linde ^{at venus} 23:42, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

No problem, thanks again. Paul^C/_T+ 23:42, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

And you thank you for finding those metadata, I had missed that. -- Kim van der Linde ^{at venus} 23:51, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Current mac project collaboration

The current WP:MAC collaboration is Apple II family. Please devote some time to improve this article to featured status. — Wackymacs 13:51, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
