Oops, I'm sorry! Please excuse me. Cheers, ♥Tohru Honda13♥ 04:02, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for putting in He. I thought he was a he but did not want to make that assumption! Thanks for fixing it up, it is much appreciated. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 04:11, 2 February 2007 (UTC)


Conspiracy

Hey Husond. Where is Tree Biting Conspiracy? He hasn't made an edit since 08:11, 26 December 2006, perhaps a tree bit him. So, is there a place where we can put out a "have you seen this Wikipedian?" on Milk cartons.

Now I'm going to go and "arrest" some vandals in his memory. Or her memory actually. Cheers, Dfrg.msc 22:25, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

No, no. TBC may or may not be female, it should have been "Or her memory, actually". I have no idea of to his or her gender. Friggin' huge rats. Cheers, Dfrg.msc 06:05, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Húsönd, wanted to let you know this IP is at it again on Jefferson Davis. Don't know if another block is called for... IronDuke 00:10, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Hollywood Undead

I have collected articles on theyre success and history, have theyre alias' algined with real names as well as band photos masked and unmasked and would like to start a Hollywood Undead article, however it is protected, It would be my first official page and i'd geet a close eye on it and it should be semi-protected —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ghettodaxx (talk • contribs) 09:45, 7 February 2007 (UTC).

Beat me to it again!

You've beaten me to the punch again. :) Reported just after I protected it! -- Natalya 19:53, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

That always makes me smile.  :) I look forward to us stepping on each others feet again, -- Natalya 19:57, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Guess we just think logically, then! Although, if we were really smart, we'd figure out a way to meet in the middle and double our time. Alas, that might require too much thinking. -- Natalya 20:01, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Stumbling all over myself.

I had no idea someone else had beet me to reverting that talk page (User talk:82.40.19.146). Didn't mean to step on your edit. NipokNek 21:22, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Actually, if you will check, the edit on User talk:Ncma was legitimate, which is why I didn't revert it. Someone had duplicated one of the warning messages - probably a bad edit on someones part. NipokNek 21:25, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Gostava de saber

Porque é que diz que tou atacando e xingando outros, enquanto eu sô estava dando informação para o português. Ele tava dizendo que Brasil é um país do terceiro mundo, mas já não é bem assim. Acontece que o Brasil tem uma das maiores taxas de desigualdade social e econômicas do mundo. Mas enfim, se nem me deixa dar uma última resposta sem ser bloqueado, não me está dando muita chance não. Ainda lhe queria dar umas luzes, que ele bem necessita. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Malik09 (talk • contribs) 11:55, 8 February 2007 (UTC).

RE: User page semi-protection

The semi-protection is ok by me. I recently requested unprotection some weeks ago for the sake of having it protected too long. Seems it didn't last that long huh :P...¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 20:25, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

  • That is extremely kind of you Husond. Tomorrow I'll be most likely on around 3-5 PM Pacific Standard Time. I'll draft up some answers in the morning before I leave for school. Once again thank you :).¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 21:07, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

You have excellent judgement in picking editors for RFA! I already though persian poet girl was one and i saw you updated your rfa page (which i have watch listed) and jumped right on that! Keep up the great work. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 00:31, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank You,
Husond/Archive 10 for your Support!
Thank you for your support in my RfA, which closed at 111 / 1 / 2. I am humbled and rather shocked to see such kind comments and for it to reach WP:100. Please feel free to leave a note if I have made a mistake or if you need anything, I will start out slow and tackle the harder work once I get accustomed to the tools. Thank you once more, I simply cannot express in words my gratitude.

OH and special thanks for nominating me :). ~ Arjun 20:08, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

What a Great Day it Has Been ^_^

Hello Husond! I finished the extensive amount of projects and mid-term testing that I was onslaughted with by my highschool teachers. I was shocked to see my RfA at ninety-some-votes...(gasps) I see there was some drama in my absence. Particularly with some sockpuppetry :P. I left a quite short response on the talk page to defend against these accusations. Once again, I cannot thank you enough and I appreciate the semi-protection in the light of some interesting opposition. Yours truly,¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 23:40, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Re:My RfA

Thanks, that's cool you'd been considering nominating me. I hope all goes well, but then, that's the community's decision. Talk to you later! Heimstern Läufer 00:36, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

My RfA

Word of thanks for Husond
Good morning (GMT time); I'd like to thank you for supporting, opposing, taking a neutral stance to, closing, suggesting I close or otherwise contributing to my recent RfA; unfortunately, I felt that although there were more support than oppose votes, the weight of the latter was too great for me to accept the promotion with so many not trusting me with the janitor's trolley -
I therefore decided to end my nomination prematurely. The feedback I received was invaluable, and I am striving to start afresh with all of the advice my fellow Wikipedians offered. In order to meet the aim of adapting to your advice, I've drew up a list of aims (located here) which I intend to follow from this point onwards.
If you have any further advice or comments for me, don't hesitate to post me a message
at my talk page where it will be graciously and humbly accepted. Once again, thank you and I do hope to bump into you around the encyclopedia!

Regards,
Anthonycfc [T • C]

I've unprotected it... It seems to have been long enough, and the editor adding all the original research hasn't edited in almost a month. Thought you should know. Grandmasterka 02:30, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Void

Dictionary definitions are seldom useful when deciding the best word to choose. When stating that some legal act is "void", one is implying that there was something wrong with its production. For the referendum issue, "non-mandatory" was certainly clearer. Velho 17:18, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for that :). ~ Arjun 17:18, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

University of Prisšhtina

Hi Húsönd :-) For a long time I didn't dare to tread in that article's problems, and maybe should have stayed away. I didn't feel that the debate on that move request had archieved any clear result yet, and it could be a good idea to re-open the discussion for a couple more days (as a matter of fact, the discussion has continued after the official closure :-).

I see two main problems in that discussion:

1). The applicability of guidelines: as I mentioned in the discussion, after reading WP:NCON I find that common English usage takes precedent, and self-identifying names (in this case the English form used by a "foreign" entity) is only a secondary tie-breaker of sorts.

But I haven't yet seen other editors sharing my interpretation, while int19h & Nightstallion agree with ChrisO's take on the issue (Septentrionalis/PMAnderson's opinion was given before ChrisO mentioned that point).

From what I have seen of ChrisO so far, I trust in his opinions, and being the only one disagreeing with the applicability of Wikipedia:Naming conflict#Dealing with self-identifying terms in this case leaves me rather uneasy about my understanding of the naming guidelines, and thus about the move in general.

In case of re-opening the discussion, I would leave a note at Wikipedia talk:Naming conflict, asking for comments on the issue.

2).I really like the idea of consistency with the article on the city, and fully agree with Meelosh in that it seems odd that "University of Pristina" is a world of its own, independent of the city of Pristina.

However, and I know that I'm not preciselly following WP:AGF here, I'm afraid that some votes may have been cast along ethnic lines, with little regard for policy. Thus, I don't find that the support for this rationale by itself upseats the WP:NCON objections brought by ChrisO.

Those are my two concerns.

Of course, I can deal with my own doubts about WP:NCON at that guideline's talk page. But since I would be asking about it anyway, it may prove usefull to do so in the context of a re-opened University of Prisšhtina discussion.

In any case, feel free to dismiss this post :-) Maybe a swift closure of that discussion based on support for consistency with the article on the city was the best course of action, to avoid the endless -and sometimes pointless- expositions of personal views on such sensitive topic (read: "topic that attracts very sensitive users"). - Best regards, Evv 17:21, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Oh, it's fine. I just had to get that uneasyness off my chest. Thank you for taking the time to review the issue :-) Best regards, Evv 18:05, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Portuguese

Congratulations for your use of Portuguese! It was almost perfect. The only minor mistake was to use "legal" instead of "jurídico" (legal in English), but I guess some Portuguese or Brazilians could do the same. Velho 17:22, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Bom, sendo tu português, isto fica-me mais simples. Olha lá, não quero ser chato, mas «void» é mais ou menos o mesmo que «inválido» ou «nulo» em português. «Não vinculativo», em tudo o que já li em inglês jurídico ou filosófico, é mesmo «non-mandatory». Ainda hoje o Vital Moreira se irritava -- e julgo que se irritava mais como constitucionalista do que como adepto do sim -- por dizerem que este referendo era inválido.
Só te louvei o português porque pensei mesmo que eras islandês. Não foi por mal e vejo que não fui o único em erro. Já agora, vives onde? E o que é que fazes além de seres wikipedista?

speedy deletion

Do you know if there is a template that lets other administrators know a speedy deletion is currently being reviewed by another administrator? There have been several time where i may check speedy labeled as a hoax against google just to confirm and before I am done, it has already been deleted, whether valid or not. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 21:04, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Portal peer review

Hello, Husond! Since it has been a month since you nominated the Basque portal for peer review, I hope you received good feedback on how the portal could be improved. If you would like, you could keep the portal listed at the portal peer review for more suggestions for improvement and ask the Wikipedians here for feedback. Also, if you think the portal is ready, you could nominate the portal for featured status. Either way, I hope you've received helpful reviews! Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 01:23, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Hello and thank you for contacting me about the review. I'm still improving the portal according to suggestions I received during the review, so maybe it can be delisted from peer review now, and I might try to nominate it for featured status in the near future. :-) Best regards, Húsönd 01:28, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Best of luck with the Basque portal! If you need any help (which I'm sure you won't), I'm right around the corner (and so is Arjun and Riana =)). Riana and I currently working with Dwaipayan and P.K.

Karki

The Karki page [1] has been protected since 22:52, January 27, 2007, and extensively discussed in the Talk page, perhaps it's time to unprotect it or semi-protect it. --AdilBaguirov 07:59, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

WP:RFPP

This message is regarding your edit to Wikipedia:Requests for page protection. Your sp in your edit summary appears to stand for "semi-protect", but it sounds too un-obvious because when I think of "sp" in an edit summary, I think of it as standing for "spell", meaning a fix in spelling. Any comments?? Georgia guy 17:46, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the merciless swooping hawk award for fighting vandal! Much appreciated. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 17:58, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Revert Battle

Hey Husond, I was having a problem with another user User:23prootie, she/he has continued to contribute negatively to Template:European Americans, Ill give you a little background, at first this user deleted valid groups (Bosnian Americans and Maltese Americans and then added Canadian, Cajun, Pennsylvania Dutch, Amerasian, Melungeon, Louisiana Creole, and Redbone. Maybe its just me (and that is why I have come to you to see you point of view) but I feel that a group should not be added unless the ethnic group can be found in EUROPE (i.e. Jews, Basques, or Faroeses) and of course any country found in europe are warranted, this user claims that the template is European Union biased, but the fact of the matter is that the anything european can be considered EU biased. Let me know what you think and if need be make the proper edits and or protect the template from being edited again unless there is discussion about what is to be added. Thanks--Joebengo 02:53, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, there has been a discussion and one of the other users deleted the entire Other category so I doubt there will be any more problems.--Joebengo 04:15, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

BrainChef undelete?

Could you please revert your speedy deletion of the BrainChef article? It took quite a lot of effort to write both stub articles that you deleted, one written by someone other than me and presumably more complete than mine, though I was unable to refer to it because of the method you used to delete the first version. I have a hard time seeing how a game with absolutely no advertising at all qualifies as spammy. It's a fun game, and I'm not the author of the game, just one of hundreds of addicted players, but it suffers from being relatively new so few third-party references yet exist. Thanks, nil 21:06, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your quick reply. I appreciate your logic. I thought that 350 made the game notable, and my intention was not to advertise for the game but to document it. One day when the game does reach whatever size you believe is notable (a reference would be appreciated here), is any of the original work recoverable? I sorely miss the five hours of editing I did. Thanks, nil 21:21, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

TTK here -- I still have my original article (I always create such content locally, and then cut+paste or upload it to push online). I've been ditzing with OddMuse on my workstation, and will be installing it on www.ciar.org soon. At that time the BrainChef article will be available to the general public. In the meantime the content can be viewed here (subject to removal w/o notice, this is my experimental copy for hackery): BrainChef Wiki -- TTK Ciar, Feb 14 2007

Appropriate form

Hello, Mr. Husond Which one is appropriate?

  • Undid revision 110180292 by .......
  • Reverted revision/edit 110180292 by....

When I undo somthing (that was made by anonymous ip / vandal), edit summary usually says about undid revision by... If I undo something then Could I write reverted revision/edit 110180292 by in edit summary instead of Undid revision 110180292 by....
Which one is helpful? is there any difference between them Or both of have same meaning. Thank You :) --NAHID 12:25, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
