User talk:Drj

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello there, I would like to express a belated welcome to the 'pedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you need any questions answered about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or drop me a line. BTW, there is a case sensitive bug in the current wikipedia software that prevents the "Contributions of" link to work for user names that start with a lowercase letter (like "drj" of "maveric149") -- the software insists on capitalizing the first letter for this link, but user names are case-sensitive (unlike the first letter of regular articles). Here is your link. Nice work on the Helicopter and the Compiler optimization articles. Cheers! --maveric149

Hey, Drj -- I was looking at the edit you made on Mountain Unicycling and wanted to point out that "i.e.," essentially means "that is"...if you changed it for stylistic reasons, fair enough, but I thought I would point it out just in case you thought "i.e.," was being used inappropriately. I don't care enough to change it back :) -- Paul Drye

Thanks for the note. I changed it stylistic reasons. I'm sure it was at least suggested in a wikipedia style guide somewhere. I can't be bothered to find said guide right now. I think that the "no i.e." and "no e.g." style should be adopted in any case. Most professional publications follow the same guidelines. --drj

Oh, I see you are a professional writer. That makes my comments rather embarrassing. Never mind. --drj


Your welcome :-) -- Wikipedians/Alex

[edit] Page name for temperature articles

To avoid flip-flopping between 'degree Fahrenheit' and 'Fahrenheit' or 'degree Celsius' and 'Celsius', I propose that we have a discussion on which we want. I see you have contributed on units of measurement, please express your opinion at Talk:Units of measurement. Thanks. bobblewik 22:07, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
