Hi Anonymous55, I noticed you removed the previous contents of your talk page. That may be seen as a violation of Wikipedia policy. See Wikipedia:User page and Help:Talk page. You should probably add the deleted text again, or you can archive it according to instructions here: Wikipedia:How to archive a talk page. You can access the previous version of your talk page here in yellow. Drop me a line on my talk page if you have any questions. Thanks, and happy editing. Robotman1974 00:33, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I made it an archive, as I don't particularly care one way or the other. However, I don't see anything on the pages you linked to that indicates clearing out ones own talk page violates policy. The talk page help page says that some people treat user pages like regular talk pages, and that others delete comments after responding to them. It describes a scenario that might be interpreted as hostile, but it dosn't appear to apply to what I did. I don't mean to be argumentative; I'm just trying to reconcile what you said with what the help pages say.Anonymous55 20:27, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi Anonymous55, it is somewhat of a grey area, which is why I said it may be seen as a violation. The main danger I can see is that if someone decides to start some kind of conflict with you, they can point to your page blanking as an example of bad faith or that you're trying to hide something.

[edit] Zipper history

Great work on the history of the zipper. Since you have the sources already, could you take a minute to reference them in the article itself? It might help to quell any dissent. Nposs 03:19, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I was planning to get around to that. The info I found is repeated in a number of sources, but I'm hoping to find one or maybe two good sources that would cover everything in the history section, which I'm still working on. Anonymous55 03:47, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Added blanket sleeper picture

Hi, it took a while, but I finally took some pictures on the weekend, including one of the blanket sleeper that I've added to the Blanket sleeper page and might add to the pajamas page. This time I have a plain background. Hopefully, this picture is a little better. Let me know what you think. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 22:50, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

It looks okay. At least you can see the feet, unlike in this photo.
As I've alluded to before, I'd ultimately like to see the article have a professional-quality photo, rather than a home snapshot; for example something using studio lighting rather than the "grey wall" effect of indoor flash photography. There are thousands of professional-quality photos out there, in things like department store catalogs; it's just unfortunate that they're all copyright-encumbered, and/or that Wikipedia's rules for fair-use use of images is so strict.
It would also be nice if you could see the vinyl soles, and even nicer if it had toe caps, snap tab, and/or chest applique, since they're such common features and part of the characteristic look of the classic sleeper. But anyway it's fine for now. Anonymous55 02:39, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Personal attacks

I've asked an admin to get involved. Please don't give up. Thoughtful editors such as you are one of the very few differences between wikipedia and Encyclopedia Dramatica. BitterGrey 02:17, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Anonymous55. I'm sorry if you considered my contribution to a talk page a "personal attack". Yes, it was critical of your views, but I don't see why you should be immune from criticism when in one breath you challenge the validity of what someone has written and in the next refuse to look at any corroborating evidence he provides.

Also, I believe that you have accused another person of fabricating my ID in order to create seemingly independent support for his position.

I don't know how he feels about that, but I don't like being called a liar. --Wetmikep 01:13, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
