[edit] Manu Chao

I'm not sure where you are, but Manu Chao is making one of his "exceedingly rare" US appearances at the Shrine Auditorium in L.A. on August 1, 2006.[1] Maybe they're not so rare after all 8)--Rockero 19:21, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Indeed he is performing in the Bay this year; however, this does not change the fact that his performances in the US are rare. A quick Google of the term "manu chao "rare US" concert" yields over one hundred hits, though most are to Lollapalooza press releases. Still, the last US performance I could find mention of was a handful of dates in Los Angeles in 2000 [4], pretty scarce for an artist who tours so extensively.HumbleGod 19:35, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
I wasn't challenging the claim. I was just excited. I bet the government here discourages him from performing. PAZ, --Rockero 19:36, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Marc Harrison correction--thanks!

Thanks for correcting the upper case in the title of this article. It was my first article, and I was looking through the help files to find out how to fix the title, when I noticed that you just had. How did you come to be looking at the page, anyway?Richardjames444 19:49, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Diamondlady AfD

Saw one of your responses on the Dr. Patti "Diamondlady" Diamond, DD AfD [2], and I just wanted to say I was very impressed with the way you handled that. Cheers. Luna Santin 00:58, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for help

Ok thanks for telling me. Ronan.evans 01:06, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kiki Carter

Thank you for the feedback on the Kiki Carter page. The whistle blower info is sourced to multiple newspaper articles, but being new to Wiki, am having a heck of a time figuring out the most graceful way to reference to multiple newspaper articles. Footnotes? Any help would be appreciated. Eaglefeather11 01:06, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the help! Eaglefeather11 01:27, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Repmart

Thanks for the heads up. I'm sure it's entirely coincidental that "Repmart" is "Tramper" backwards. User:Zoe|(talk) 02:16, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] BJAODN

keeping it there, seems like it's just rewarding the vandal for their efforts--64.12.117.5 21:38, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

  • It wasn't added by consensus, it was added by the actual vandal who spent about an hour repeat vandalizing the article, before adding it to BJAODN--64.12.117.5 21:44, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 3RR

Thanks for the link to 3RR. I'm fairly certain what I reverted was obvious vandalism, so I think that's an exception to the 3RR rule if I understand it correctly. Anyway, I'm done looking at WikiP for a while, so no worries :) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Archer3 (talk • contribs) 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My bungled AfD of Maths A

Thanks for the reminder! I think I got confused and messed up the steps because (a) it was my first multiple AfD nomination, and (b) I added it to the List of Australia-related deletions, which made me think I had done Step 2! Regards, Canley 09:02, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Israel

is it not a fact that Israel is considered by the UN to be a sovereign nation??? The edit was meant to imply that that the United Nations does not consider the PLOs claim to the whole state of Israel to be valid. Jeff —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.74.70.152 (talk • contribs) 22 July 2006 (UTC)

  • I do not believe that last edit was a pov, it was a fact, Israel is regarded as a sovereign nation by the UN and most of the world. Jeff —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.74.70.152 (talk • contribs) 22 July 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Revert of good anon edit

Hi. My session dropped, and I seem to have been not logged on when I just made a grammar correction in Johnny Cash. I made it with an accurate edit summary: "none" takes a singular verb, which is correct. You reverted me with vandalproof. Please be more careful, I find that most anonymous edits are actually positive contributions, and this one was no exception. Thanks for your consideration. -GTBacchus(talk) 06:36, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, edit summaries are helpful. Anyway, in this case: "none of these friendships was/were about politics", don't we rephrase as "not one of these friendships was about politics", to see how it goes? -GTBacchus(talk) 06:44, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
No hard feelings, I don't doubt your intentions at all. Still, could you explain the rule to me, so I'll know better in the future? I don't understand: ""none" traditionally takes the number of the word in which modifies it. What does that mean, in this case? -GTBacchus(talk) 06:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you; I get it now. -GTBacchus(talk) 06:57, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] tag change.

By inspecting the history, and looking at the talk page. you can see what is or is not a legit tag change. I'll change it back. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.196.128.174 (talk • contribs) 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User page edit

Hello, that wasnt no content removal which you guys call vandalism. Me and Pi were having a personal talk. There was no wiki content in that. Was just cleaning up MY user page discussions. I dont think there is anything wrong in that?!! You there? I think the edit should not have been reverted. Whats going on? Kind of a newcomer right now. Thanks. Further, if i registered now, will all my previous posts be converted to my new name??? Thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 219.91.203.71 (talk • contribs) 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey, that particular message from pi was not a warning, it was a conversation I was having with him. I had a chat with pi about his warning. So, where is the question of misleading anyone about a conversation with pi and that would be a miscontruetion. I dont want to keep that converstation part on discussion, so dont I have the right to edit or delete my user page discussions?? I dont see how that is harming anyone! I would like to keep a clean slate and have already sorted it out with pi. If you want I can add POV to his warning. You mind if I clean up the page? I just like to keep things clear. Do I have the right to revert to the page as you saw it and add pov to pi's warning to make the point?? or maybe you have the right and should revert it back to its state. Thanks. I dont see why anyone should bother about the conversation and I want to clear it?

Are the warnings of you guys totally impersonal and everyone gets them a lot?? 219.91.203.71 21:26, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the revert to this guy, see my talk for further info. Cheers muchly Khukri (talk . contribs) 23:06, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks Khukri. Since it looks like conversations on that talk page are coming down anyway, I guess I won't bother to respond to him. -- H·G (words/works) 05:07, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Not going to lie here, it was I who posted on your page for the stuff dealing with OT. I guess you can thank me for giving you another userbox. haha. I'm sorry though as I was upset and didn't know any other way to contact you. I won't be doing it again and will start utilizing the discussion area. I just registered this account today so I hope to see you around. Any tips for getting my userpage looking as nice as yours? Mainly how to do Userboxes?

[edit] User:69.234.126.211

I agree. I placed the 1 hour block as a quick stopgap while I figured out what was appropriate. I've set it to 48 hours. Hopefully a couple of days off will make him lose interest. Let me know if I can help in any other way. Cheers, -Will Beback 07:55, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of pop punk bands and List of straight edge groups

I was looking these over and was about to close them as "categorize" when I realized the insane amount of work that would dump on me. Are you willing to take it on? In the future, it would probably be better to boldly create the category and then nominate the list for deletion as redundant... or even just redirect it. Mangojuicetalk 16:28, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

I have been trying to get a hold of Mangojuice, but if HumbleGod will respond (if you are working on the Category:Pop punk groups). Basically, i'm suggesting that we keep both the Category and the List of pop punk bands. I wrote some arguements for support on the talk page on the List and in the debate which was closed only after 6 or so votes. Anyway please consider this. Thanks! Xsxex 01:39, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Advocates for Children in Therapy please review

Mr. Sarner continues to pepper the site with [citation needed] notations when there are adequate references present. I'd appreicate your view on this and your comments to me on my talk page about how best to manage this. I think we will need your intervention on this page as intervention has been necessary by administrators on other pages that Mr. Sarner has been involved with, such as Barrett (from which he is banned or blocked and Bowlby. thank you. RalphLender 21:20, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for looking at the page and making the changes you did. I cool head and NPOV is very helpful. I find your changes quite acceptable. RalphLender 17:52, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My Mistake

I'm sorry I didn't realize it was “uncivilized” to point out someones insufficient intellectual abilities when they make it so obvious by not even being able to form a coherent sentence.

[edit] Agnostic theism

Hi, i saw your keep sign and was curious as to where I could find any citable sources that it's a widely used term? On a side note, if your interested, I'm debating how Agnostic theism even makes sense, perhaps you could enlighten me. I appreciate your input and look forward to learning a thing or two.

[edit] RE:Template:Definitive Jux Records

Thanks man. It is pretty helpful actually. Good job on starting the Mo' Mega article. I still haveta listen to that album. How is it? Is it worth picking up?--Xxplosive 04:46, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Actually I was just thinking about doing one for Quannum too. You can use the same template format too. I think I'll make another one for a different label or something.

And thanks for the Lif tips. I heard the song "Storm" with Lif and Edan on the Cut Chemist album. That's a seriously tight song. Which other artists are you into?--Xxplosive 06:44, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Damn you're seriously into a lot of music hahah. I'm not as broad as you are in terms of music, but I also like listening to underground rap. I'm not really into rock though, but that song "Twisted Transistor" by Korn gets my blood pumping. Ridiculously good song. I love funk music though. I watched Undercover Brother and I really like the soundtrack, so i started to dig into funk music. How's that Quannum template coming along? I just kinda got into doing stuff on wikipedia. I need something to do during my summer lol. --Xxplosive 03:50, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
Props on that Quannum template. I think more of those kind of templates should be made. Good job man. --Xxplosive 04:54, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] vandalism of Changes/warnings on L0b0t's user page

Please leave my user page alone. It is not your place to decide what I do or don't have on my user page. Please confine your edits to articles and leave me alone. Thank you. L0b0t 13:34, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Not only did you place content I've already archived on there but you deleted some info I wanted to keep.L0b0t 13:35, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
It's good form to provide links to such archives on your talk pages. It is certainly not my place to decide what goes on someone's talk page, but Wikipedia policy is pretty clear on this: removal of warnings from one's own talk page is considered vandalism. Please refer to WP:VAND. -- H·G (words/works) 19:11, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
What warning are you talking about? You are correct it is not your place to edit someone's user page. Kindly leave my page alone.L0b0t 19:17, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
There are warnings on WP:CIVIL, WP:OR, and WP:3RR, to say nothing of the {{wr0}} warning I placed advising you to not remove material from your Talk page. This is pretty unambiguous. I have not, nor will I, decide what is appropriate for your Talk page; Wikipedia guidelines make the decision themselves. -- H·G (words/works) 19:20, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion of Roy Moore article

I've been working on an expansion of the article on Roy Moore for about a week. At the moment it can be seen in my user talkspace. Please feel free to raise objections or suggest changes/additions to the draft in this space. However, as the draft is still in my user talkspace, please do not alter it at this time. Thanks! -- H·G (words/works) 03:57, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

  • The draft looks like a very solid article with much more on his judicial career which is, of course, his claim to notability. Good work. A fewminor points which have bothered me: First, both the existing article and this version label the links as "pro" and "anti". I think it would be worthwhile trying a version without subcategories for "pro" and "anti". Links to the Foundation for Moral Law and to his campaign site are self-explanatory. If the opinion pieces are notable enough for inclusion as WP:External links, those opinions could surely be introduced in the text and linked as references. Second, your section on "campaign and election" quotes Moore without citation. It appears that your account of the campaign could be expanded, especially since Rove's participation brings wider interest. (also, you left the "t" out of "significantly"). Third and last, the section on Homosexuality and child custody should probably be renamed, as it may be misleading in the context of a biography. Though I know it is not your intent to mislead, perhaps using the name of the case would be more neutral. I think the section would read better if it began with the sentence "Chief Justice Moore issued an opinion in a 2002 child custody case which expressed his belief that the State should rightfully use its powers to punish homosexual behavior."... The style of introducing a separate thread that only later ties into the story is characteristic of a chapter in a book, not a section in an encyclopedia.
With or without these suggested changes, your improvements have my support. --Dystopos 06:11, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Punk music

Whats up? Hi, I'm trying to gather some more interest and support for the Wikipedia:WikiProject Punk music. Please check out the topics and lets get our WikiProject to function better. Recently, I've taken an interest in the Wikipedia:WikiProject hip hop and I consider that WikiProject to be better developed. I am now writing to usernames on the hiphopWP who might be interested in helping with the punkmusicWP. Hopefully we can all work together to improve articles relating to punk as has been done well with hip hop. Finally, I am trying to gather support and opinions concerning the punk house article and specifically the Theta Beta Potata article which is currently in AfD (x2) at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Theta Beta Potata (second nomination). Please check it out and voice your opinion. Xsxex 09:08, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
