[edit] Re: Illegal drug trade

Though the section has been improved since I wrote that, my objection still stands. While examples are appropriate, the section has a lot that is specific information on a particular market and drug that is not relevant to the general topic of the article, or provides data that is only informational to someone who already knows something about certain prices. For example, saying that a seller might charge "as much as $50 for an "eighth"" is information that is only relevant to cannabis in the U.S., when the information that is trying to be conveyed is simply that sellers have a profit margin. So, please, rewrite it, but keep in mind that it is sometimes best to use wording or sentences that have already been written for the article, if appropriate. A rewrite can be considered starting from scratch, but only parts need be new material when some old material fits into it well just fine. - Centrx 02:03, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Gaming Collaboration Template

No, I wouldn't be against linking it at all. It's a good idea, and I went ahead and linked it for you. Note that it was linked to a redirect (WP:GCOTW) so the template won't look messed up on its corresponding page. --pie4all88 22:32, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Paleorthid

Thanks for the welcome. I am working adding content (articles, definitions) regarding soil science. Am learning the wiki culture as I go. Paleorthid 16:41, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the welcome...

Although I learned of wikipedia "ages ago", only recently did I realize the power of a wiki when we installed one at work. In the past few weeks I have started three wikis on various sites I run, and made an edit here to a topic I am familiar with. Seeing the "you have a message" box was a surprise to me, and yet another fascinating thing about wiki I did not know. (Just like this talkback page. This thing keeps getting better and better!) At this point, I'm wishful for a way to cause an Edit page to open already populated with a default template, but that doesn't look possible with MediaWiki. Thanks again for the welcome. --Allenhuffman 17:38, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for the advice. I want you to know that I'm sorry about the whole "Clay Beal" thing last week. My roommate at Georgia Tech comandeered my computer, and posted all sorts of weird stuff; it won't happen again. Anyway, thanks again. Davis21Wylie 21:24, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] You said to leave you a message

[edit] Maya mythology

I don't know too much about Mayan mythology, and am not active in that area, so go ahead and do whatever you want. Combining the small god articles into one isn't a bad idea, though I don't recommend it unless they can't be expanded (i.e. because virtually nothing is known about them).

[edit] Thanks

Hi, and thanks for the welcome. Going off your page, I'm going to assume that it my the City of Heroes contribution that caught your eye. Although I do play, it's a bit outside my usual scope of interest, but since the lawsuit section involved an IP case, I decided to chip in there. Hope you found it interesting and/or useful.

[edit] Off topic: design

Thanks for taking a look at my design work for WikiJunior, you're the only person that's commented so far. I'm interested in what you have to offer, go ahead and email me. Urza@Tampabay.rr.com or the link on my user page. LockeShocke 19:20, Dec 31, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] RE: James cleverly

Hey there. I untagged the above article as a CSD because, unless I'm mistaken, vanity/non-notable articles did not pass in the poll to expand the criteria for WP:CSD. If you believe that the article should be deleted, please sent it to WP:VFD. Thanks! -Frazzydee|✍ 05:08, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Whoops! Sorry about that, I thought I left it at User_talk:Rd232...I guess that's the consequence of having so many tabs open :). Thanks for telling me. -Frazzydee|✍ 19:38, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Oh, I know what happened :), the top of User_talk:Rd232 says "Enjoy your stay and feel free to add a comment on my talk page", but that's a welcome message. I mistook it for an introduction. -Frazzydee|✍ 19:40, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Kiwilyrics

Hi Defunkt, I stumbled onto a note you left someone about kiwilyrics.com. It's something I'd definitely like to contribute to. I wonder, though, why copyright issues are such a problem here, yet not at kiwi. Cheers, TIMBO (T A L K) 01:35, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] bag on line adventures

on the second page of the comic, when jesse is talking to chase and the unnamed "son", he says "the 'mistake' is for the human, and this you are not", meaning that the children aren't human. Lachatdelarue (talk) 20:00, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Welcoming template

Hi there! I was told you're one of the frequent welcomers of new users. I was wondering - since this is a rather frequently asked question, would you please add a link to Wikipedia:Merge to your welcoming template? Thanks. Radiant_>|< 20:40, July 10, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Toyn Benn Change

Hello there, you asked about the sourec for the change I made to detailks about the common ancestor of Josiah Wedgwood and Tony Benn. The information that cited Thomas Wedgwood I was initially from me and was an inexplicable error - Tony Benn desdends from his brother Aaron making the common ancestor their mutual father Gilbert.

Many thanks,

John Wedgwood Pound
