[edit] Great work!

[edit] db-contact

Please learn what {{db-contact}} means. I have removed your tags from Sdc.com and Robert Cibis because neither article was an attempt to communicate. -- RHaworth 19:05, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

Again William Everly is nn-bio not attempt to communicate. -- RHaworth 19:38, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

Here is an example of an article which would qualify for {{db-contact}}. (Although in this case the correct treatment was "revert" because there already was a valid article on this title.) -- RHaworth 21:50, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] 1-bit DAC

Sorry. It was (and still is now that you've reverted) an orphan article, any person (technical or otherwise) is unlikely to find it. If you create an appropriate link from the main article, it will be safe from my "wrath". --W.marsh 14:17, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Then you did a good deed. But those links are removed once someone completes them, it seems. So there was nothing linking to 1-bit DAC (other than this talk page, now). I guess it's a pet peeve of mine, I was wrong to redirect like that. But something from Digital-to-analog converter should link to it, otherwise it will appear on the list of orphan pages. Sorry about all of this, really I understand your confusion, like I said, it's just a peeve of mine and I didn't handle it properly. --W.marsh 19:46, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi! I've just created a Bitstream (disambiguation) page which includes Bitstream (DAC), currently a redirect to 1-bit DAC. Would you mind if 1-bit DAC was the redirect instead? SDS 01:36, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fixing monobook.js for afd helper

Hi. You tried to install the afd helper, but it seems you copied the script at a time when some things had accidentally been capitalised, breaking the script. Please replace AFD_helper with afd_helper in your monobook.js. Thanks and enjoy! jnothman talk 22:25, 11 December 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Complaint

I am disappointed in the overert aggression against postings I have made to which I DO have copyright permissions to post. It is bothersome that legitimate articles are being deleted by "Editors." This is regarding the biography of Anni Adams entitled "The Meeting of Anni Adams: The Butterfly of Luxembourg." These articles can be found on hundreds of web searches and throughout the Internet.

[edit] Aaron Arvey

Hi QEDquid! I'm afraid I had to remove the speedy tag from the above article - as part of the deletion process I checked the history and found that there had been content there, and that it was blanked by someone other than the orginal author. The article still needs deleting, but I don't reckon it's speedyable so I've had to nominate it the long way round at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aaron Arvey - thought I'd let you know in case you wanted to have your say there!

[edit] Irma board

I'll admit to a certain curiosity; why shouldn't the Irma board article be exposed with the IBM PC compatibles category? That category page begins This category, IBM PC compatibles, includes articles having to do with IBM PC compatible computers as well as related hardware and software. While many of the articles do not exclusively pertain to PCs, they are most commonly encountered in that area of computing..
