[edit] By the Way

I think we can do it (if we did Californication) :). Yes, there was a major tour for By the Way, including three nights at the legendary Hyde Park, London, making that event the highest grossing concert at a single venue in history, with over 280,000 tickets sold. They released Live in Hyde Park, as their first and, currently, only live album. Also there was one at Slane Castle (a DVD was released). The only downside to the information aspect is that Scar Tissue ends a little before the release of By the Way, so the tour information will have to be found elsewhere. Otherwise, I'm really glad to see you decided to come back. NSR77 TC 22:28, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

KM I really want to extend my hopes that you'll decide to once again stay. Your efforts, like it or not, have become significant in the Wikipedia community and you yourself are an awesome writer and contributor. While much of life is indeed corrupt, you should just let it all go and take a step forward. I have no idea what keeps getting you fired up, but when you stuck to article writing you were having a good time here. Please, take a Wikibreak, but come back. Best wishes, NSR77 TC 11:26, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

And I wholeheartedly agree. I strongly oppose that RFA. NSR77 TC 00:29, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

By the Way's FAC. Hopefully another RHCP Featured Article will get you to stay...=\ NSR77 TC 04:49, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome back!

YAY! Miranda 05:59, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Kamryn, you shouldn't leave because people don't share the same concerns as you. Or, are making your oppose look too critical. I have been in your shoes on numerous RFAs. You shouldn't leave because you are a valued contributor to the project. Take a wikibreak and come back, please? Miranda 06:49, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
I can assure you that it is absolutely nothing to do with RFA.
Okay, feel free to e-mail me to talk. Miranda 07:00, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Some thoughts

Kamryn, I want to thank you for taking the time to participate in my RfA, which closed successfully. You and I don't necessarily agree on a couple of things, but I think you should know that I valued your comments and will certainly do my best to live up to the trust that the community has placed in me. I want you to feel free to come to me with any suggestions you have, and want you to know that I will always - always - pay attention to what you say. It's not easy to be the sole dissenting voice in any discussion, and I respect that you did it. - Philippe | Talk 06:48, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Californication charts

Hi there. Regarding this change, I don't think it is an improvement. The previous version was much more consistent, in that it had consistent column widths, and had only country names on the first line. I personally don't mind the line breaks, but if you feel it necessary to get rid of some of them, a better way to do that would be to increase the width of all columns to say 6em. In the meantime I've reverted your change. Have a nice day, and welcome back. --PEJL 09:53, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

PDAs and such are a very good concern. In my experience the major problem with most browsers on such smaller screens (excluding the iPhone) is the limited screen width, and the need for horizontal scrolling. Like on desktop browsers, vertical scrolling is completely accepted, while horizontal scrolling is disliked. So that is a reason to keep the columns narrow. Ideally it would be enough to just set a column width and not have to use any line breaks, but they are needed to hyphenate long words such as "Mainstream", and to fine-tune the line wrapping to make it for example "UK(break)Top 40" as opposed to "UK Top(break)40". (As for <br> vs <br />, see here and search for "As for the XHTML argument" if you want to know why I think using <br> is acceptable.) Moving the charts seems like a very good idea, both because it makes the tables neater, and because it separates the references into a separate section. It can be improved further by including more information about those references, which I note the previous version did. Couldn't {{cite}} be used in that section as well? --PEJL 10:20, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your return

Good. It's great to hear that you decided to come back, because you're truly a great writer and all around nice person. To tell you the truth, I'm not here to prove myself to anyone, just to expand articles related to the Chili Peppers. Drop me a line whenever you need to talk. Regards, NSR77 TC 23:01, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Eventually, I guess. ;) I'd love any help and or additions you can give to it. I rewrote the article in one day, so some of if it (even I noticed) is a bit drifty, but Kiedis wrote quite a bit more in-depth about Blood Sugar than any other album, so there was a lot to add. Also, to prove or disprove my guesses, are you female? NSR77 TC 12:04, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
Haha, well Camryn is a boy's name in the US, so I was kind of unsure. But I'll fix most of the stuff shortly. The computer can be an escape from real life, as I generally go out every night and edit during the day. I also wanted to tell you how clear those pictures of your town are! They're vivid, to say the least. NSR77 TC 20:54, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
Also, what are you planning on working on in the near future? I see Costello Music is something you have your eyes on. I myself have been torn between John Frusciante and Blood Sugar as to what my next major project should be. Either way, I'd be tremendously appreciative for your help with any aspect on either article. Regards, NSR77 TC 00:49, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
I'm honored that you consider me to be ready for an RFA, but I know, without a doubt, that it would be extremely unsuccessful. Therefore, there's really no need to waste the community's time with my pitiful RFA that is sure to fail. NSR77 TC 00:52, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sure!

I'll try to get nimrod. to FA status, I like the album a lot. Though, I'm probably going to have to watch some documentaries and find various information before, as I'm not much of an expert on nimrod. as much as I was with Dookie. And thanks, I have toned down the language since before ;) Xihix 17:04, 31 July 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Draco and the Malfoys

Thank you for taking the time to GA review Draco and the Malfoys. The points you made will help when I and others work on it. Cheers! Wassupwestcoast 22:53, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Hibiki's Magic

I have done as you requested. Would you mind looking over the article again?--十八 18:08, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Y Done ;) Kamryn · Talk 21:58, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Barnstar

Why'd I get a barnstar? --Defender 911 (Leave a message!) 16:46, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

In fact, why did you quote me? --Defender 911 (Leave a message!) 16:59, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
Ok. Just put my username next to the quote, OK? --Defender 911 (Leave a message!) 17:03, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
No trouble, but it would make sense to put my username next to my qoute. :) --Defender 911 (Leave a message!) 17:04, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

One other question: What were you thinking?

"I think I love you."

I'm serious! What were you thinking?!?--Defender 911 (Leave a message!) 17:14, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure I understand, but OK. --Defender 911 (Leave a message!) 21:13, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
Can I delete the barnstar? I don't deserve it...--Defender 911 (Leave a message!) 21:49, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
One last thing...should I delete your message? If you're not comfortable with it, it'll be no trouble. --Defender 911 (Leave a message!) 21:52, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
Good night, then (or whatever time it is for you) --Defender 911 (Leave a message!) 21:56, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
