[edit] Communist Dissidents
You have removed two articles from the category named "Dissedents". In light of this I have proposed that the category should be renamed "Communist dissidents" 87.194.35.230 05:30, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] RK
Actually I'm not particularly bothered by GA status. Its good to fix things up, but the rest is just window dressing. But I'm not trying to take anything away from your work. Thats just my personal take. Frelke 20:37, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi WJBscribe,
thanks for your kind remarks regarding the Ruth Kelly article.
After seeing your editing work over the last days I apologize for my comment on the Ruth Kelly talk page suggesting bad faith editing in the Fathers for Justice section of the article. The days before I had seen several obvious bad faith edits by other users (not in the RK article), but I shouldn't have extrapolated. --Túrelio 21:19, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] AfD
They definitely should be put up for AfD. I will put them up. --Ineffable3000 05:49, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:Rafikilives' block
Thanks for your message. I suppose it depends on one's assumptions about human nature. When I see someone register an account and immediately make more than one unambiguous vandalistic edit on a high-profile article, I am inclined to do as I did. If the user wanted to post something on his talk page (which he can still edit), indicating an intention to improve their behaviour, I might reconsider. But I think it might be easier in this case for them just to start a new account. --Guinnog 22:11, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Talk:List_of_bisexual_people
I've replied to your note at the above-referenced page.
Thanks for working to improve Wikipedia :)

- ... and you replied to my reply about sixty seconds before I posted here. I should pay more attention :)

(outdent) Random suggestion -- you might find it helpful to other users to include a link to your talk page in your signature. It simplifies replying to your posts, and in this modern, goofy, mixed-up world, we need all the simplicity we can get :) — Adrian Lamo ·· 03:39, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
- I take it back. People are always griping about technical aspects of my .sig, and I always say to heck with 'em. Do it any 'ol way you want :P

[edit] unhelpful
Yes, I do think you are unhelpful to everyone. Too many people on wikipedia like being 'the police' or the run around frightened doing what they think the police want. TerriNunn 11:51, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] List of LGB
Thank you. I have been watching your efforts via my watch list, and commend you for your own work. It's terrible how many people are being wrongly tagged, or aren't at all - I wasn't expecting, when I first took on this task, to find literally hundreds of people who are not on the list: I'm working my way through all the LGBT categories just to find the categorised ones.
If you're planning to do this for some time, would you interested in joining WikiProject LGBT studies? Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 23:31, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
- If you mean Terrinunn, just ignore her, she's convinced that everyone who has ever been rumoured ever to be bisexual ever should be listed, regardless of whether its true or not, and accuses anyone who reminds her of actual Wikipedia policy of being restrictive, vindictive tightwads. NNDB is not a reliable reference, just as IMDB is not - which is why every bisexual I have added to A-E from that list, if they were referenced by NNDB, I found a new one. Same mainly goes for Clublez, though if they referenced where they got their information from, I sometimes use it. If someone is bisexual, it shouldn't be a problem to find a reliable reference - though Clea Duvall has given me such a headache. :) Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 23:51, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
- IMDb is a fairly reliable reference in my estimation, though not as a sole source. If we set our bars too high, every reference is unreliable :)
- — Adrian Lamo ·· 03:18, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
- WP:RS says no wikis may be used - IMDB is written by users sending content in, and is therefore unreliable. I saw IMDB more explicitly rules out somewhere else (I used to quote IMDB all the time, and got slammed for it), so I really wouldn't use it for anything other than films.

[edit] Bisexuals
No, go for it. I was going to do it after I finished the list of LGB people, but I think that's going to take waaaay too long... :) Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 10:09, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
Wow, this girl is determined. Utterly misguided, but determined. I wonder what she will do when it gets deleted (you're right, so I won't vote). Come back and harrass us, I suppose. Oh well, if we develop a guideline by consensus and get the WikiProject involved, there's not a lot she can do about it. :) And with her incivility, it's a matter of time before she gets blocked.

[edit] Civil partnerships in the United Kingdom
Hi there. If you're involved in this article, perhaps you'd like to try to discuss the rating further with Joel on the SOL, either on the article's talk page, or his own. He's pretty exercised about the whole thing. Jeffpw 17:59, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
- I absolutely agree with you on NerriTunn (and everyone else seems to be ignoring her by mutual agreement as well). I've never intended to improve Civil Partnerships in the UK, I've only ever wanted to rate it and get on with my life, and it's fairly obvious that Chris the Anonymous IP is Joel in another guise. Basically, he's going to let the rating go, and so the matter now rests. Pour oil on troubled waters if you like, but I'm going to go have my university interview today and forget about it. :) Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 07:44, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you very much
Thanks for your help soothing the bruised egos on the Civil Unions page. your suggestions there are constructive and should help to improve the article. I agree that Dev could have expressed herself a bit better, but the rating was made in good faith. I sincerely hope you and the others involved will be able to get this to GA standard or higher. Best. Jeffpw 09:37, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- Ooh, I'm such a meanie. : ) Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 09:57, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
