[edit] 201 Penelope

I have reverted your addition of a lightcurve plot to the 201 Penelope article. This image is not useful as presently given: in particular the font size is far too small. I'm also not sure what it adds to the article, but the most important that it can't be read. Michaelbusch 02:12, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] =Triangular dot in your name

Hey dude, your name looks really cool in talk pages. How can I do that? --Home Computer 15:11, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi evil monkey, thanks allot for the tips on how to change my signature. I cannot figure out how to add the therefore symbol (dot triangle) to my sig like you had.. at least like I think you had. I can't find it anywhere.. could you helpme out one more time? :) --Homecomputer 21:38, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Commons info

Hi there, can I ask you to add a bit more info to this pic at Commons? Either a summary box or just the place (town, country) and date. I know this seems trivial, but I used to work in a museum archive with a wonderful collection of pioneering photographs - with infuriating, tantalising one-word descriptions! It's amazing the things a viewer 50 years hence will find interesting in a photo. JackyR | Talk 17:56, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Bootiful! Actually, I suffer from hyper-pedantry (or perhaps my friends suffer from it...), so I usually try to add a list of keywords under the summary box - bungalow, tin roof, corrugated roof, caravan, grass, daisies, suburbia.... This is AFAIK what proper picture libraries do (I was only a volunteer at the archive), because it makes images findable for uses you haven't predicted. But tho I'm not the only one to do this, it hasn't been discussed at Commons. :So depends how anal you are, really... :-) JackyR | Talk 20:25, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Please see my question at Talk:Meat the Veals. --Mathew5000 23:54, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] That shiner

Is there a story behind your self-photo at commons:Image:Black eye.JPG? How did you fall six feet onto concrete? :) - Keith D. Tyler (AMA) 18:27, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

I ran onto a balcony where there were some bedding (it was my grandparents motel), and tripped over them. There weren't enough railings, plus being a small boy, was able to fit through the gap. And down I went. Haven't suffered any ill effects of it. It is one of those fun stories to pull out. Evil Monkey - Hello 23:31, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Genesis Rock

Hi. If you are the person that uploaded the image of the Genesis Rock at the commons (and which is also at Moon rock), I'm pretty sure that this is the wrong photo. It is supposed to be sample number 15415, but this image shows 15195, and looks like a basalt. Could you look into this, and perhaps upload the correct photo if this is indeed not the right one? Thanks. Lunokhod 19:38, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

You are correct. Just had a look at where I got it from (Apollo Lunar Surface Journal), and the image I uploaded is sample number 15495. Not sure what is gone one, unless it was incorrectly labelled previously by NASA. I've uploaded the correct image. Evil Monkey - Hello 20:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Underarm bowling incident 1981

Hi, sorry to revert your rewrite. I'm always reluctant to revert good-faith edits, but in this case I thought that, when inserted, the trivia broke up the flow of the article too much. I now see your links to trivia guidelines, and I'll give some thought to how a rewrite might be done better. Rocksong 22:46, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] List of globular clusters

I'm currently doing some undergraduate research on NGC 2419, and got confused when I looked at list of globular clusters and saw that it said this cluster was in Puppis, not Lynx. Then I realised the problem was that it was listed with negative declination, not positive declination. I corrected the entry, but thought I let you know in case you wanted to check to see if there were any other sign problems with other entries. Evil Monkey - Hello 22:47, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the catch. I'll add a check to my to-do list, although I'm not sure when I'll get to it. :-) — RJH (talk) 22:50, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nowak's pic

I think you're right. I thought it was more recent cuz her face is thinner but no more. My botch, sorry. Gwen Gale 00:13, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] what do you mean mr monkey

people can edit that stuff anytime and its useful

do you realise how many people get scammed in london due to not knowing the market

its an encyclopedia of the 21st century therfore requires information on the real world right —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jamesr1ley (talkcontribs).

[edit] Could you close a proposed merge?

Hi. I would like to ask a favor: Would it be possible for you to formally close the proposed merge that was discussed at Independent evidence for Apollo Moon landings? (The debate appears to have ended about a week ago.) The behaviour of some users on this topic is becoming more and more incivil, and I think that it is best that a neutral observer evaluate the arguements and make a final decision. Thanks for the help. Lunokhod 15:32, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Survey Invitation

[edit] NZ Crown Copyright

Hi, great work on the template. :-) Unfortunately, in case you hadn't noticed, Rebelguys2 seems to be putting up a case to delete all NZ Crown Copyright images.  :-O. You may want to get involved :-). Winstonwolfe 06:57, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
