[edit] Welcome from Redwolf24

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We as a community are glad to have you and thank you for creating a user account! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Yes some of the links appear a bit boring at first, but they are VERY helpful if you ever take the time to read them.

Remember to place any articles you create into a category so we don't get orphans.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, please be sure to sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, or three tildes (~~~) for just your name. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome.

P.S. I like messages :-P

[edit] Revco

Thanks for adding Mary Lou's "And, another thing..." to the Revco page. I cannot believe that you remember she said that. Wikipedianinthehouse 22:53, August 24, 2005 (UTC)

Ha! A lot of things from my childhood still occupy space in my memory that really aren't necessary. I just happened to be reading a Wiki page about the Olympics, and when I saw Retton's name I immediately thought of Revco, which of course meant I had to immediately see if there was a Wiki article on it. Turns out the history of Revco is somewhat interesting; I wasn't aware of the bankruptcies, just that they became CVS at some point. --Birdhombre 02:21, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] JonnyT peekin in...

Heya,

This is JonnyT formerly of the ULMB, noticed your comments on the snopes article so thought I'd pop in and say hey.

So, er, yeah. Hey, and all that. *waves*

--Black Butterfly 01:51, 28 December 2005 (UTC) PS I am now a raving anarchist. Thought you should know.

Yeah, I figured you'd become an anarchist someday. :D Thanks for checkin' in. --Birdhombre 01:54, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Peanuts List of Birthdates and Information

Hi, Birdhombre -- I'm just saying that I'm sorry I didn't say where I got this "List" info. I was visiting a friend, and he has all the info on Peanuts. I don't know where he got it (the talent), but he says it's all true information. It will be published on the Net in January 2006. --Janet6, a Wikipedia user

Since my comments on your user talk page got deleted, I'll put them here:
Janet6, if you did indeed register this username, please log in. Currently, all of your edits (including the creation of this user/talk page) are showing up as the anonymous IP address 24.255.115.243. Also, the reason Wahkeenah and I keep reverting your "Peanuts facts" is because Wikipedia has a policy of no original research, which states:
Wikipedia is not the place for original research. Citing sources and avoiding original research are inextricably linked: the only way to show that you are not doing original research is to cite sources who discuss material that is directly related to the article, and to stick closely to what those sources say.
You have listed your source as a "new paper" that cannot be found on the internet, and/or a website currently under construction. Until that paper or website is published, we cannot use it as a source for an encyclopedia article. Further, Wikipedia has a policy on verifiability, which requires "reputable sources" to verify facts. Since, as I've said before, I am a long time Peanuts fan and have never heard or read any of these birthdates/names you keep adding, I would be suspect of this new paper/website even once it is published. UnitedMedia's Peanuts biographies at Snoopy.com make no mention of your information either.
Please understand where I am coming from here; I am not out to target you, but I also do not want to see false or unverified information added to Wikipedia. There is enough of that already; we don't need more. Thanks. --Birdhombre 03:25, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Beagle

Don't you understand the beagle is Smiling in the photo and not Smelling? Quit the revert war! 83.31.244.130 22:42, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Umm, no, I don't understand. I've never heard of a "sense of smile" other than in the names of photography studios and dentist offices. Also, you added Please revert to previous verion is caption reads: The Beagle has a very well-developed sense of smell. to the comment tag in your edit. So you basically violated your own suggestion by changing "smell" to "smile." Further, I asked twice before in my edit summaries why you changed "smell" to "smile," and you continued to change it without explaining why. Now you're accusing me instead. Beautiful.
And for the record, the five senses are sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. But you probably knew that. --Birdhombre 03:18, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ameriflora

I'm glad you started a page on Ameriflora. I think resizing the pictures I added was the right move - it looks better.

I was always sad that it wasn't more of a success. You always get the feeling that Columbus is embarrassed a little by being named after Christopher Columbus. Old Chris has not been treated kindly by history, and is now considered a VD-bearing greedy jerk who is hardly mentioned in school books. He used to rank up there with George Washington when I was a kid. But I digress - nice job on the page. george 06:43, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! I have all the references listed on that page, but haven't taken the time to add citations to the text of the article. I keep meaning to do that. Thanks for adding the pictures; I scanned the logo, but didn't feel like digging out pictures from 14 years ago too, if I even knew where they were.
Yeah, the Wolfs touted AmeriFlora as Columbus' time to shine, hoping it would place the city on the world stage, but there were angry residents right from the time the committee was even founded in the '80s, which meant there was limited local support. I went there twice (I was 12 at the time), and it actually was a really nice exhibition, but it's too bad it wasn't better planned. --Birdhombre 12:58, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DoubleClick

Birdhombre

i just want to let you know that doubleclick absolutely has a software. it is an adserving solution which is built around both advertisers and publishers workflow. typically it is sold as an asp solution, often customized for specific client needs. on the publisher side they do have an enterprise solution which allows publishers to control their own ad serving. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Huntermj (talk • contribs).

Cool. That might be something good to add to the article if you have some sources. --Birdhombre 13:54, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
