[edit] Unsigned comment reply

No trouble, I find myself forgetting to sign a fair ammount, too (you'll see me editing with reasons such as "sign, silly..." when I spot that and correct it :P). I have to admit, Wikipedia:Template messages (or rather, the redirect List of templates) is one of my most-visited articles! I never edit without it open, as templates are quite handy. You'll find on the talk page templates a link to Template:Unsigned. With almost all templates, the talk page details how to use it. In this case, you use {subst:unisigned|username|date}, just with an additional pair of { and } around the template. Subst converts the template into the code, speeding things up. There's also an unsigned2 template, which has the username and date the same way around as on the history, making it even easier to use! Happy Wiki editing! LinaMishima 19:37, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of uncategorized composers

Hello:

Actually, there never was discussion (I was being bold!) But there was an old setup of the list of composers page; it included about ten incomplete lists according to style: Ragtime, jazz and blues, pop and rock, folk and country, religious, orchestra, vocal, new age, film, and maybe something else (check the page history). I started by only merging the ragtime list into List of ragtime composers and leaving a link to that page only, as a kind of test to see how people would react. No one seemed to object, so I did the same with the "Film composers" section (List of soundtrack composers). Pretty soon all ten sections were merged, it looked like what List of classical composers looks like right now. So I merged the uncategorized composers list into the main page and put all the other links at the bottom, most of which have since been deleted. I apologize if this was unorthodox editing style and if there was no discussion, but no one immediately raised objections or reverted the merge. Anyway, with a little work it wouldn't take much to categorize these people, that's my hope for the end result of this.

P.S. I categorized some composers while the list was still at the uncategorized composers page. Dafoeberezin3494 19:13, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RFC on Composers/Songwriters

I have added this RFC on the page Talk:List_of_composers_by_name. Although you have said that you wanted to keep out of this dispute, I would appreciate it if you would make your position clear so that people might understand what is being discussed. Thank you Musikfabrik 17:02, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for repeating your position. Best wishes Musikfabrik 20:30, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] We don't like doing this...

...because 99% of users really really really really regret it and ask to be unblocked very shortly after (and a percentage go nuts, asking why the flip people listened to them, couldn't they see that x and y meant z and therefore t applied which made h obvious and you should be desyspopped for it... etc...)

However, if you're sure, please confirm so, whilst logged in to this account, below. Thanks. ➨ ЯEDVERS 20:04, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for double-checking. I'm sure. So is my wife. Rohirok 20:09, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Then, with sadness, I have blocked you for a year at your request. I will watch for collateral damage and do my best to prevent it. Enjoy your Wikibreak - both of you :o) ➨ ЯEDVERS 20:42, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

I miss you Rohirok! Dreadlocke ☥ 21:57, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
