Welcome to my talkpage! I'm mainly active on the Dutch Wikipedia but I occasionally make some edits here as well. Just add any questions of comments here if you want though you'll probably get a faster response if you go to my Dutch talk page.

[edit] Company of Heroes (Micro/Macro)

Ok. I see your point of view. I'll leave it like it is. I thought micromanagement was what you (and to your credit you have Wikipedia on your side) call macro management. Happy editing.

[edit] Kane (Command & Conquer) picture

It's not really about 'what I want'. I believe there is a Wiki guideline about pages on fictional characters that literally states that the most recent canonical appearance of the character is the one that should be placed on top of the page.

I learned this the hard way myself from the Big Boss page, where I initially placed a rather cool pic of Naked Snake on top, only to have it reverted back to that Metal Gear Solid 1 artwork of Big Boss in his seventies by other editors for that very same reason. 80.201.170.125 20:19, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Tussen haakjes, ben je een Nederlander of een Belg? 80.201.170.125 20:23, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
Nederlander ;-) But I'll continue in English :P It's just that the Tiberian Sun picture is the way most people remember Kane and Kane in the C&C 3 promo is a bit dark and it's only purpose so far was to show the fans that he's back (well, it could be taken from an actual ingame cutscene but still). Like I said, when the game arrives (or new trailers), we'll probably get some better and more recent pictures :-) Simeon87 20:35, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
I can imagine they'd create such guideline though but it might not be that useful in all situations. Simeon87 20:41, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sorry

Sorry about getting confused with the language list at Pixel - I didn't see that you'd just moved it. My mistake. :-) Angus Lepper 23:02, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Oh, it's okay. But it's kinda odd because I've seen fi: being lower in the list in other articles too. Perhaps it's because "Suomi" should be listed lower alphabetically (and by placing it lower in the list, it's listed among other languages that start with an S as well)? - Simeon87 07:36, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comment

I'm not really sure what this comment was about. This is a public access computer and I just ran across this because I went to the wiki.

>Instead of complaining on talk pages, you could try editting and improve it yourself. Thanks, Simeon87


Isn't it usually best left to people that are knowledgeable on a topic to add to it? If it is bad then it is bad. Having someone just change it because it is bad won't help the wiki.

Well, it referred to the contributions made by someone under that IP: see here. Those contributions weren't really constructive but IP addresses can change, so that's probably why you saw it. If you're not the person who made those edits, then the comment above was not for you. Simeon87 19:20, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
