[edit] List of films with similar themes and release dates AfD

Hi, you've expressed an opinion in the deletion discussion of this article. I've recently suggested a compromise in hopes of improving the article while keeping both sides happy, and would appreciate if you could revisit the issue. Thanks. --Wafulz 18:31, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] lg15 userbox

Has anyone made one? --BBrucker2 01:06, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Jay, the idea that LG15 was a hoax is central to the story, is cited in many, many sources, and is not a POV. For you to continue to delete any reference to the fact that this was a hoax is for you to *create* a POV where one does not exist. If you *really* wish Wikipedia to be a true arbiter of facts, then not only should you delete facts which are untrue or unsourced, but you must allow facts which are true and are sourced. That is the rule, yes? Or is *your* POV so much more important than the facts?

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Parents of the Prime Ministers of Canada

Hi, thanks for your vote to keep on the article on their children, but they have put this one (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Parents of the Prime Ministers of Canada) on AfD as well. -- Earl Andrew - talk 19:11, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Delete frenzy

I think Kevin Ray gives up to easy when Philippine articles are nominated for deletion. He says, "Fine, but if you delete this..." I have support for the articles if the content is valid. I usually suggest merge instead of delete if I think it isn't a reasonable article. Here is some Philippine lists [1]. There is some merging that could be done to avoid all this nonsense, but they will pick on just about anything. Thanks, for the heads up. I will try to keep an eye out.

[edit] Looking for Alaska

I appreciate it...I managed to convince them to remove the quote from the author's page and move it do a different section on the book page...they wouldn't remove it from the awards page. The reference is a blog for the same agenda. I'd be happy to help you with this. Czolgolz 17:09, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lists and their deletion

Don't wory, I hadn't interpreted your comments personally or cabalistically. Thanks for the positive contributions to the discussions around the aussie lists. We're not necessarily looking to get them deleted, just debated to get a consensus on which are valuable over categorisation. --Steve (Slf67) talk 03:15, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Informal mediation

I have accepted the mediation case involving Looking for Alaska, Michael L. Printz Award and John Green (writer). I am contacting all involved parties. If there is someone else who has been involved in the disagreement, please let me know so I can invite them to participate. I am currently reviewing all three pages and their talk pages. Please indicate if you accept my assistance on the case page. Cheers!! Vassyana 13:15, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Mediation has been accepted by all involved editors. The case has been updated. I have posed some questions at the case page. Thanks! Vassyana 09:22, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
A compromise has been proposed. Please review my suggestion and let us know what you think. Vassyana 07:30, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
I have provided a few suggestions that may help get us to a final agreement. Please review the case page. Thanks! Vassyana 18:17, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

The mediation has been closed. LEAC has said he's leaving the mediation and will be leaving the disputed articles. If you have any further questions, concerns or comments, please contact me on my talk page. Be well!! Vassyana 04:49, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fossil Hippo References

The references I've been using for my anthracotheres and hippo pictures are the books "Mammoths, Sabertooths and Hominids," "Evolving Eden," and "Animals of East Africa." The last book is out of print, mind you, but I think they're all available in Amazon.com. One of my next projects is to illustrate the final anthracothere genus, Mercycopotamus... I think it may have been found in early Pliocene strata, even.--Mr Fink 14:41, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Let's go with "Category:Extinct hippos" and have it as a subcategory of Prehistoric artiodactyls and Hippos. You think we should shuffle the Anthracotheres into it, too?--Mr Fink 19:33, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
The anthracotheres aren't hippos per se, but they are regarded as the immediate ancestors of the hippos. Maybe we should ask around for more opinions about that, then?--Mr Fink 22:29, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hippoquarium

Thank you so much, the hippoquarium is a great attraction at the Toledo Zoo, and I am glad my reigon can offer it to its visitors. Please, if you find any pictures, add them, it would enhance the article very much. Wpktsfs 19:01, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you

Thank you for your kind compliment on my talk page. We're always looking for more volunteers at WP:MEDCAB whenever you feel experienced enough to come help out. I'd recommend participating in WP:3O and WP:RFC if you want some experience that will be helpful in developing mediation skills. Be bold and don't be shy about providing an outside perspective on article talk pages and proposing compromises to conflicts. It will help you gain good experience for a mediator to have. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me. Vassyana 05:40, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
