[edit] List of dictators

Read the list intro. It says, among other things, that the list is for dictators who governed after 1789. It's an anachronism to label someone a dictator before then, because no country had explicit limits on the power of the executive. The exception to this is the Roman dictators, who have their own list. Gazpacho 02:27, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] --J intela 07:20, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm asking my question here becouse your discution page is blocked, please answere it. I want to Expand on to Paleolithic Continuity Theory, Upper Paleolithic and the Gravettian using this source [1], can I? Please read it all the way thrugh before aswering --J intela 07:24, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

you can, if you figure out this site's sources -- unfortunately, the writeup doesn't have a bibliography, so we don't know how much of this is in accord with PCT. It would be much better if you got hold of a book by Alinei or so. Also, please note that while the page you link to is an essay, Wikipedia articles should be in encyclopedic tone and should not read like essays. (see WP:MoS, WP:NOT). Finally, you can use Talk:Paleolithic Continuity Theory to discuss changes to that article, no need to discuss it on my user page :) dab () 09:53, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unblocked

Thanks for the e-mail. You're good to go. E-mail me if you're still having problems.

From now on when i want to try out new editing devisis i will do it on my own talk page i cant get blocked for that can i?

  • Of course not. Best thing to do is to use the sandbox, though. Otherwise, all those experiments will wind up on the edit history of your talk page. The sandbox is automatically cleared by a bot anyway. That way, anything you leave there will get deleted automatically. - Lucky 6.9 03:10, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi! Glad that I was on; I just saw why the system wasn't unblocking you. It had put an HTML symbol in your username, making you "J_intela" instead of just "J intela." You should be ood to go. Sorry about the inconvenience. - Lucky 6.9 01:30, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of dictators

I certainly don't see why that would be a problem. Sounds like a great idea! Personally, I've never created a list from scratch so I'm unsure on the formatting. You may wish to check out some of the other lists to see what the layout is like. - Lucky 6.9 23:47, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] US metro area list

Connecticut is not part of the New York City metropolitan statistical area. Bridgeport-Stamford and New Haven are separate metro areas per the U.S. Census Bureau. Please do not insert incorrect information into these lists. Thanks. --Polaron | Talk 06:00, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Norway, Iceland and Switzerland and EU accession

Hi J intela! First of all, thanks for the congratulations: it's a great honour for Romania to be part of the EU! To answer your question regarding Norway, Iceland and Switzerland's EU accession, I think there are various reasons why these countries aren't members. First of all, all three countries have a tradition of euroscepticism, and EU accession is not publicly favoured by any of them at the current moment (according to opinion polls). The differences for this vary between them. Norway and Iceland fear that EU regulations will harm several of their industries (most prominently, fishing, and particularly whaling). Additionally, since Norway and Iceland are among the wealthiest countries in Europe, they will be large per-capita net contributors to the EU budget, and for this reason EU accession is seen as a financial burden producing very little returns (also, these countries have no regions below 75% of the EU average income, meaning the EU will not provide funding as part of its regional development assistance). In fact, these countries, as members of EFTA, already benefit from free trade with the EU member states, as well as free movement of persons, passport-free access (Schengen Agreement) - formal EU accession thus becomes a net cost rather than a net benefit. Culturally, both countries are rather insular (similar to the UK, whose population is also rather eurosceptic), and for this reason they are traditionally quite sceptical about integrationist and regionalist movements, particularly with non-Nordic countries. It is important to note that they are both full members of the Nordic Council and both Norway and Iceland have favoured integration within the Nordic group but not outside it; in fact, Sweden and Finland only joined the EU as late as 1995 due to their ties with the Nordic countries and the desire in the 1980s and 1990s to create a "Nordic" regional bloc distinct from the "continental European" bloc.

The Swiss case is a bit different, even though, to be honest, I actually think Switzerland has the highest chances of these three countries to accede to the EU. The main barrier to accession has been the Swiss tradition of neutrality, which has even prevented it from joining the United Nations until a few years ago. In recent years, there has been a gradual reversal in this policy, as Switzerland has signed the Schengen Agreement and has also collaborated with the EU in several other fields. Aside from the doctrine of neutrality, there is no other reason why Switzerland is incompatible with EU accession, particularly since it is very centrally located on the continent and trades extensively with the EU. So, as it moves away from neutrality, the country may very well join the EU soon (Austria, also a neutral country and non-member of NATO, joined the EU in 1995). If you have any other questions related to the European Union, feel free to ask :) Cheers, Ronline 10:34, 5 January 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Palestinian Civil War

Why did you post a copy of some article's talk page to make an article on the Palestinian Civil War? I have deleted it. Academic Challenger 03:31, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalizing user pages

You should not vandalize user pages such as you did here even if they are anonymous IP addresses. I appreciate your desire to contribute to articles such as ethanol fuel, but you should not just delete information that you disagree with, especially when it has a verifiable citation. Perhaps if we start building a consensus on the discussion page, we can build a better article all around! --Chuck Sirloin 04:32, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

In addition, contrary to your post on my talk page, I am not "working for the cattle companies in cohoots with the oil comapnies becous [I] dont want to see the price of corn go up to save the nation becous [I] want it to feed [my] waistfull cattle witch is a major harm to the enviermant." --Chuck Sirloin 04:35, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

While I appreciate your zest for life, I think that the 15 posts in a half hour to my talk page was a little excessive. I have been a wikipedia reader for a long while now, which should explain my familiarity with the system. It was not my intent to boss you around, I was merely pointing out some issues and striving for teamwork. Cheers, --Chuck Sirloin 14:47, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
