[edit] Ape Escape

Done. Thanks for all your help. --Canderson7 21:24, August 11, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] I'm sorry, but

  • LAPD Officer Kathi Simpson of the Media Relations office says detectives report that Love committed suicide in the 8500 block of Mulholland Drive in the Mount Olympus area of Los Angeles this morning. An official announcement is forthcoming. 68.97.208.123 15:49, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Word Golf

Thanks for catching that illegal move! I checked the index of Pale Fire, and it turns out that Nabokov does in fact use "mare" as his third step. My mistake. This also means that the scoring doesn't count the first word, so I changed that in your example.

Thanks again,

Hey, I think your page is rather intersesting. Killer Queen09

Thanks for the word. SAID, not SIAD. But it's going to be retitled to Some Americans Instigate Distortion. LILVOKA 13:13 (EST) 22 August 2005.

[edit] Invitation to the Forgotten Realms project

Hi,

We are working on a Forgotten Realms Project to map Toril (mostly Faerûn, at the present). Since you contributed quite a lot on a Forgotten Realms-specific entry, I'd like to invite you to join the project, so we could improve the “Mapping the Realms” project.

The goal is to create a sort of World Factbook for the Realms. This means:

  • A consistent content
  • Use of templates
  • Entries should be limited to “sovereign places”: states and free cities, as well a moderately-inhabited place such as the Western Highlands.

On top of this, we also plan to cover Lost Empires, such as Pelvuria or Imaskar and, of course, Netheril

Main contributors are presently

If you know some other person who would be interested, feel free to forward the invitation!

Feel free to take a look. We hope to see you soon mapping the Realms with us! Reply to David Latapie 12:32, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Gwen Stefani

I think that your views on Gwen Stefani are ridiculous and over the top. Gwen Stefani, who for years has been portraying her own fashion and style (Just watch some of the old No Doubt music videos and look at the album covers) would not wish to objectify Asian girls and make the U.S think that they are nothing more than what Hollywood has already made them into. I'll admitt, the Harajuku girls and her reason for their presence everywhere they go with her baffles me too, but I'm sure that she is just respecting the Asian Harajuku culture and simply trying to show young girls around that world the fashion sense that is in every country around the globe.

  • I've been a fan of No Doubt since the Tragic Kingdom days. My point is not one of fashion or style, but of unconscious - perhaps even subconscious - exploitation of a Western view of a complex and irreducible culture. Do you know Harajuku is? Do you know know how subtle and unassuming racism and latent prejudice can be? I'm not sure that you do. Your admitted assumption that Gwen Stefani is just "respecting" asian culture (of which Harajuku is distinctively not emblematic) is precisely that - an assumption. You assume that Gwen Stefani is honouring a culture, while I simply submit an alternative explanation for her behaviour: that, while this may be her stated intent, her real motivation is a subconscious fetishization of Asia and Asian women/cultures/trends. I don't think that you can prove me incorrect; and, even were her intentions completely innocent, I think that her parading around of these Japanese girls promotes their objectification and other negative stereotypes of Asians that she has not considered, but ought to be discussed. jglc | t | c 04:11, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I do infact know what Harajuku is. How dare you assume that I don't! OperaElf22 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 151.205.243.48 (talk • contribs) 14:00, 10 January 2006.

[edit] Flarn2005

Trouble? No way, you did exactly the right thing. I've got his user talk page on my watchlist too, probably for similar reasons. All the best, FreplySpang (talk) 04:30, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi Jason. I know what you mean about worrying whether you're concerned vs. too much. I feel that way too sometimes. There's probably some profound principle we could apply, but I'm feeling a little more pragmatic. :) This one issue is not a big deal, and this user is only occasionally disruptive, so it's not worth making a big fuss. A small fuss, sure, but I think we're both bored with reverting his talk page! You're watching him, I'm watching him, I bet other people are too - if he does anything significantly disruptive, it will be handled quickly. FreplySpang (talk) 18:15, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
Then again, other people seem to think it is a big deal: Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:Flarn2005 A bit harsh if you ask me, but there it is. FreplySpang (talk) 20:45, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Featured article template

I am just making a joke about arrogance. Notice that I put it back. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Flarn2005 (talk • contribs).

[edit] My user space

Jasonglchu, I put those red banners that you are probably familiar with by now up because you are making edits so something in my user space that I do not like. You should know (it happened twice) that if you edit something in my user space and I put it back, you should not put it back to the way you had it. As I say in the red banners, it is my user space and I am in charge!

FLaRN2005 04:12, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Flarn, I still strongly disagree with you, but accept that you're not going to come around to my way of thinking. Due to this, I've passed the issue of your actions and my responses to administrators. We'll see what they say. jglc | t | c 04:14, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hello

I'm just curious to know if you've seen the second message posted at User talk:Winnermario. I stumbled across it and figured that I'd inform you. Have fun editing. —Hollow Wilerding . . . (talk) 14:59, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

You are welcome. —Hollow Wilerding . . . (talk) 19:44, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Peoples Champ

Hi- I notice you made some suggestive edits at The Peoples Champ. Is the album really called The People's Champ? I know that this is the grammatically correct spelling, but the album cover leaves out the '. If the ' really is in there, then we should move the article, but I'd hesitate before disregarding the album cover.

Also, if you're into Paul Wall- check out Grills and see if you can help it out. I started it a few weeks back, but don't have much there yet beyond a dictionary entry, which doesn't make me feel too good. Staecker 14:18, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Big Pun

Wasn't as good a catch as you might think - I just happened to see your post on Mark's (Raul654) talk page. So I just edited it for him - since he is usually pretty busy. By the time I edited it, he responded and gave me some extra info I incorporated by editing my comments on the talk page. Anyway - np - i'll try to watch it a little until I sign off tonight. Only bad thing is I won't be back on until mon. Trödel•talk 03:49, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Toymaker Article

Is there not gonna be an article for this guy already? I'm British and haven't seen it yet. - SGCommand
