[edit] Petri Nets
Hi, El Pollo Diablo, Welcome to Wikipedia. I just responded to your questions in the talk page for this article on Petri nets. The article itself is a camel -- a horse designed by committee. I have routinely witnessed miracles in Wikipedia, and I'm hoping this article will eventually become one ... (visualize praying hands). As it stands now, it is a mess, but not as much of a mess as it was before I had gotten ahold of it (or so I would like to imagine).
Are you familiar with the LNCS volume 3098 on Advances in Petri Nets? In it there is a paper on Petri nets and dependability that you might be interested in seeing. In my response to your questions I mentioned extensions, and this volume is full 'o them. Rüdiger Valk's paper on Object Petri Nets takes extensions to Petri Nets to novel extremes. Come to find out, his stuff could be useful in modelling the dynamics of blood borne infection/resistance on the cellular level, so the application domain for Petri nets is really broad. The whole moral of this story is that there ain't no such thing as a "standard Petri net". Vonkje 02:04, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Football links
Hi,
I noticed you were new and had been editing football articles, so I thought I'd give you a few links that it took me a while to find. Hope they're useful.
- User:Sjorford/Football - comprehensive list of football articles on Wikipedia
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Football - place to discuss football articles
- Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Association football - good page for editors who are interested in football

[edit] Alex Ferguson
I reverted your deletion as I felt that leaving the article with nothing on his achievements at United was a bit extreme. I've put a few ideas on the article's discussion page.

[edit] Raymond E. Feist articles
Hello,
While searching around the "What links here" list attached to the Raymond E. Feist article looking for other Wikipedias who may be fans, I found you. Currently I am working on expanding the related articles of the Riftwar books, but there is a lot of ground to cover with 20 books to look through. I am hoping to gather other editors who may be willing to spend a little time to help out. There are articles which need expanding and clean-up, and I don't think I can do it alone.
The current articles are (red links to be started): The series articles:
- Riftwar
- Krondor's Sons
- Empire Trilogy
- Serpentwar Saga
- Riftwar Legacy
- Legends of the Riftwar
- Conclave of Shadows
- Darkwar Saga
Other articles:
- Midkemia
- Triagia
- The Kingdom of the Isles
- The Empire of Great Kesh
- The Kingdom of Roldem
- The Kingdom of Queg
- The Eastern Kingdoms
- The Free Cities of Natal
- The Keshian Confederacy
- Elvandar
- The Grey Towers
- Stone Mountain (Midkemia)
- Dorgin
- Novindus
- Triagia
- Kelewan
- Worlds of Raymond E. Feist (title pending) - this article would cover those other worlds visited through rifts and the Hall of Worlds, and even the City Forever and the Garden.
- Races of the Riftwar sagas (title pending)
- Gods of the Riftwar sagas (title pending) - not only are there gods of Midkemia and Kelewan, but one other full pantheon mentioned in Krondor: The Betrayal.
And there is probably more that I haven't even thought of yet, which I am hoping you might.

- How do you feel about editting an area that will more than likely contain spoilers of future events that take place in the various series? - LA @ 22:41, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Blocked IP
The IP of what I can only assume must be all of Loughborough University campus has been blocked. While I appreciate that there has been a vandal from this IP, blocking the entire thing is counterproductive as there is at least one (me) genuine editor here. Surely there is another way? --El Pollo Diablo (Talk) 14:32, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- It's really a tough problem, actually. The autoblock is simply a 'secondary' block that happens to the IP of a named user when his account is blocked. The admin can't see the IP, so there's no way he can know what he's autoblocking. The autoblock stops persistent vandals or spammers from simple making another account and going right back to what they were doing five seconds later. The balance, of course, is that other good editors can get blocked for a few minutes, and if it happens often enough they stop contributing. I'm really sorry if this keeps happening - please hang in there and know that we try to fix autoblock damage as fast as possible. Kuru talk 01:01, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
James Milner Career section Not really asking for full feedback on this article (although I wouldn’t mind it). I’d just like to know what you feel the best way the divide up the Career section is, by Club, by season, not at all or some other way. Please leave your reply under the section in my talk page named “Milner Career section”. Buc 16:26, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
I didn't ask you specifically I asked a lot of users. But this was sorted a while ago. Incidentally this article is now a FAC. Buc 18:59, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
