[edit] Revision3 Studios

Hi. I noticed that you voted to keep the Systm article on Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/Systm. Well, unfortunately, the article was deleted, and Systm was redirected to Kevin Rose. I recently created a new article for Revision3 Studios, the company that produces System and thebroken, and changed Systm to redirect there. Unfortunately, the Revision3 Studios article has now been nominated for deletion.

So, if you have a chance, please look at the Revision3 Studios article, and then go to Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Revision3 Studios and vote to keep it. Thanks a lot, --taestell 16:56, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] GNAA delete vote

I don't think Theresa did this on purpose. - Ta bu shi da yu 06:09, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

It was an error on my part. I am really sorry. Theresa Knott (a tenth stroke) 06:21, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] GNAA x 2

There is a comment up the top. They can't miss it! But I agree that 6 times is too many. This will be the last vote. - Ta bu shi da yu 06:24, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the heads up

It certainly shouldn't have been removed (I didn't notice this!). I have:

• readded the notice
• noted what I've done on the talk page
• noted the issue on WP:AN
• made a comment on Gmaxwell's page.

The way I see it, anyone who relists that article on AfD is being disruptive. - Ta bu shi da yu 02:33, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the kudos

Specifically, my first barnstar! It's much appreciated, and I'm glad to see you've liked the Puhdys, Tamara Danz, and Silly (band) articles. I hope I'll get around to finishing the first of these and working on others, like City (band), Pankow (German band), Renft, and Stern-Combo Meißen at some point...

[edit] Kinsey

You removed this paragraph from Alfred Kinsey with a single sentence of justification in the edit summary.

   Alfred Kinsey's two volumes became the manifestoes of sexual revolution and the counterculture. However, That was not the intention of the scientist from Indiana. Kinsey, himself, was a life long Republican, and his research was sponsored by the Rockefeller Foundation, established by the moderately conservative Rockefeller Family.

I disagree with this edit for two reasons: The paragraph doesn't explicitly state that he was conservative, just that he was a member of the Republican Party (which is verifiable and factual, and could be ) and that he did not intend the massive social change that his papers caused (also can be verified (or refuted) with sources). Perhaps the "manifestoes" part could be re-worded, but I think it's certainly important to acknowledge the social effects of the reports. Unless you can convince me otherwise, I'm re-inserting the text, because I think it's removal takes away from the article, and possibly compromises the NPOV. --TexasDex 07:31, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Read the talk page! I put the expanation there when I did it. The paragraph implies with an anachronism--his association with the Republican party (which most liberals and progressives were members of until the late 60s and early 70s) and the political orientation of the politically neutral Rockefeller Foundation. The use of the word manifesto is riduculous. If you can rewrite the paragraph so that anachronistic interpretation of his political associations isn't likely to be made and using a different word than manifesto, and without making the ridiculously weak inference that because the Rockefeller foundation was established by a conservative family everyone they fund must be conservative, and leave whatever useful information there might be in the paragraph (of which I'm hard pressed to find.) then rewrite it. Check the talk pages first, I put all this in there. --Brentt 23:18, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thebroken

Hey thanks for the headsup on thebroken blanking issue. I'll keep my eye out if it happens again. --Hoovernj 21:07, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Work

I don't think editing wikipedia while you're at work constitutes as work per se. Unless your boss told you to edit the Drexel wiki page. Which I doubt. --You know who.

[edit] Poison Dart Frog Naming

Hi,

I am currently working on improving the articles about the poison dart frogs. I have started by creating all the genus articles, but something has struck me while I was working on them. Almost all of the species articles are titled by their scientific name. According to the Tree of Life guidelines, articles should be named by their common name, and if their is none, by their scientific name. I noticed that you created some of the articles, and I would like your opinion in the discussion on Talk:Poison dart frog. It would be easier to reach consensus about all the articles in one place than to have to do it on each individual page. Thankyou. --liquidGhoul 00:12, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cyanide and Happiness

Dont really see how its biased but its all from the FAQ at explosm.net. but ya try to make it look better--Nimrod1234 22:47, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

• I actually didn't write about the allegations on TopWebComics, just clarified the formating of it. However, I do understand that veracity seems to be the biggest issue "deleters" bring up regarding the comic strip, so I'll hunt it down if I can.bernlin2000 ∞ 15:20, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
