[edit] Welcome

Hello there EdH, welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you ever need editing help visit Wikipedia:How does one edit a page and experiment at Wikipedia:Sandbox. If you need pointers on how we title pages visit Wikipedia:Naming conventions. If you have any other questions about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or add a question to the Village pump.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

When creating an article, could you take care to highlight the title phrase or title word very early in the article (typically on the first line)? (See how I edited your Coulson article.) Michael Hardy 21:42 16 May 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Lawrence Brockett

Hi. Please see Talk:Lawrence Brockett. Mintguy 10:33 23 May 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Empire

Hey, thanks for the Empire link! Ark30inf

[edit] Jan Lukasiewicz

Hi EdH, I see that you have done a lot on Jan Lukasiewicz. You seem to know more than I, but I am concerned that we have a spelling conflict over one of the names in the Warsaw School. (See the "studied with" sentence near head of Alfred Tarski. My Source (I can look it up and provide if you like) has Le&#347niewski. How confident are you in your spelling? Thanks, vanden 07:07, 5 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Hi EdH, got your message, saw the update, and I don't mind in the least that you put the exchange onto the talk page. A pleasure working with you! vanden 08:46, 8 Nov 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Philosophy of perception

Your work on Philosophy of perception is excellent – thank you. Banno 12:44, 5 Jan 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Louis Kahn

Louis Kahn: please check that I didn't eliminate anything trying to fix our edit conflict just now. Thanks. Wetman 07:15, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Dick Clarke

You broke the path from Dick Clarke (and thus from Dick Clark) to Richard Clarke), replacing it with a closed loop. If your intentions were good, please forgive my writing in an insistent tone. In any case, please explain those intentions for the record, in a reply here on your own talk page.

Please see Talk:Dick Clarke EdH 20:07, Jun 26, 2004 (UTC).

Thanks, Ed, now that you describe it, i can see how i could have done that myself, and have confidently failed to check my work.BTW, i admire

  • your clear exposition of the situation (it's under GFDL, so there's no point agonizing about whether it's an idea or the expression of an idea, so i will steal it someday without hesitation!) and
  • your clean and effective structure for solving the underlying problem, which is substantially better than what i could come up with.

[edit] Haileybury

I notice that you have done most of the work on the article about my alma mater Haileybury. What's your connection with the old place? Or are you just interested? --Phil | Talk 12:56, Jun 25, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] excellent edit in puberty

I didn't go back to see if the tautology was my own sparkling prose because I would be severely embarrassed if it were. Seriously. Alteripse 19:24, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] GB/UK

Ed, why are you changing all of the UK links to GB? GB is just an island and has been irrelevant for centuries, UK is the country. The links should be changed the other way. --Steinsky 12:56, 7 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Those darn lights

Ed, see Talk:Marfa light. Moriori 01:27, Aug 14, 2004 (UTC)

Please note I have no interest in this subject, for which information was supplied by user edh and not user EdH. EdH 14:06, Aug 20, 2004 (UTC)

Apologies EdH. It was confusing having a Edh as well. Moriori 20:35, Aug 20, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. – Ram-Man (comment) (talk)[[]] 14:44, Dec 9, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] lots of edits, not an admin

Hi - I made a list of users who've been around long enough to have made lots of edits but aren't admins. It doesn't look like you're tremendously active anymore, but if you're at all interested in becoming an admin, can you please add an '*' immediately before your name in this list? I've suggested folks nominating someone might want to puruse this list. Thanks. -- Rick Block (talk) 23:01, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Please check your WP:NA entry

Greetings, editor! Your name appears on Wikipedia:List of non-admins with high edit counts. If you have not done so lately, please take a look at that page and check your listing to be sure that following the particulars are correct:

  1. If you are an admin, please remove your name from the list.
  2. If you are currently interested in being considered for adminship, please be sure your name is in bold; if you are opposed to being considered for adminship, please cross out your name (but do not delete it, as it will automatically be re-added in the next page update).
  3. Please check to see if you are in the right category for classification by number of edits.

Thank you, and have a wiki wiki day! BD2412 T 05:14, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
