[edit] McCaslin

I understand your desire to recreate the article McCaslin but if there isn't anything more than an image added there (and the text describing the image doesn't count) it will continue to be deleted. I've also responded to you at Talk:Go Down, Moses. Please don't think that this is in any way personal. It's just that more is required than simply placing the tree on the page. Maybe if you started with some descriptions of the characters and added the tree, that'd help. You can see some articles at List of family trees. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 09:03, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blanking

This message is regarding the page Talk:Go Down, Moses. Please stop removing content from Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Image:Weather rain.pngSoothingR 09:19, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Novels

Hi seeing your interest in books and novels, I was wondering if you might like to get envolved with our as yet small (revitalised) WikiProject. There is plenty of scope for influencing things and making your contribution count. We are about establishing standards for Novel based articles and writing articles that meet our own and others high standards, and to improve Wikipedia's diet of articles on Fiction books, otherwise called Novels. Please be very welcome. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 07:58, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Creating or improving, both I think have equal emphasis, Novels are defined by us a all novel structured works of fiction so classic novels, and genre novels are all included. Thanks for your interest, and most of us are interested on a part time basis, most having their of particular genre or authors of interest. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 07:37, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Justine

I have moved your recently created article Justin-novel to Justine (novel) since that is the naming convention used for novels. Joelito (talk) 04:11, 16 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Bitch

I am curious about this Ann Coulter. Why do you think she should be the poster girl for "bitches"? I had never heard of her until I read your comment. However, I don't agree with your choice of Madonna; for, even though she is a bitch, she is too shallow to be a serious bitch. In my opinion, the Queen of England should be the bitch poster girl for using her status to impose her vanity and to make unendurable speeches, which are broadcasted for no other reason than her status. Alternatively, a jailed rapper could be used, because rappers are often in prison and probably also subjected to bitch subordination. Rintrah 19:10, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] noticed your comments at Flora Purim

there's been a lot of work, perhaps you can contribute.--Smkolins 17:37, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 24 Talk page

Hi, I understand your position on Talk:24 (season 7), however if you look at the recent edits you'll see there is someone else who thinks it is OK to discuss the show on the Wikipedia Talk page. If people see others talking about the show and those comments are not removed, I can see why this could be seen as acceptable use of Wikipedia. Deleting the comments may be viewed as vandalism, but I don't see any other way to make the Talk page relevant to Wikipedia. Your comments would be appreciated, preferably on my Talk page as I don't watch user talk pages. Thanks! JamminBen 11:05, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Seeing as you didn't reply to this, I did a bit of research and found some info on this kind of thing. If you look at the Talk page guidelines, there is a comment about this:
Talk pages are for discussing the article, not for general conversation about the article's subject (much less other subjects). Keep discussions on the topic of how to improve the associated article. Irrelevant discussions are subject to removal.
(Emphasis mine.) These guidelines suggest that it is acceptable to remove irrelevant discussions. The fact that keeping them there is just exacerbating the problem makes me think that it would be more destructive to the Talk page to keep the comments there than to remove them.
So, I'm going to remove the comments again. It's not vandalism to remove irrelevant comments from Talk pages. JamminBen 01:23, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability Tag?

So give it some context, find some sales figures, etc. What you've got right now is that a novelist wrote a novel. That hardly qualifies as enough for an encyclopedia article. Nburden 23:33, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Upon further investigation, all I did was revert someone's edit (he responded to the notability tag with:"Books from Kenn Follett are ALWAYS important!") I did not add the tag. Nburden 23:38, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Virtual Villagers

Before you call other editors "trigger happy", you might want to investigate the fact that the game was only released after my last edit to the article that removed the speculative info on chapter 3. Thanks. --DachannienTalkContrib 17:33, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
