[edit] Black Hat SEO versus White Hat SEO

I don't think we are going to start separate articles about black hat and white hat SEO. There are two articles already covering SEO and Spamdexing, which provide good homes for all the content. This is the reason for my edits. Jehochman 02:53, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

I agree with the Black Hat/White Hat message you left on my talk page. If you make edits or moves along this lines, I will support them. Do we rename "Spamdexing" to be "Black Hat SEO" and create a redirect for Spamdexing? There would then be two articles: SEO and Black Hat SEO. That's the way the public talks about the topic. Before this happens, we should post a message on SEO:talk because a lot of people are watching those pages. Jehochman 12:52, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] English pidgins

Hi there. Thanks for the work on the template. However I regret that you want to 'change' it towards a pidgin-exclusively template. I started it so that Valspeak, Internet Slang, Hip Hop slang, Leet and Globish would fit. I propose to make a different section/paragraph of the template and readd it.

The English dialects template is already too large. I'd say splitting this one in the two sections you proposed. Maybe the one named 'English pseudo dialects and slang' Pictureuploader 23:19, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
The ones you proposed to me as subsections for the English dialects template. These names will do fine for a start. Pictureuploader 23:30, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Languages

Hi There! Can you translate my name in what language you know please, and then post it Here. I would be very grateful if you do (if you know another language apart from English and the ones on my userpage please feel free to post it on) P.S. all th translations are in alpahbetical order so when you add one please put it in alpahbetical order according to the language. Thanks!!! Abdullah Geelah 12:53, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] edit summaries

Hi LinguistAtLarge! Thanks for your contributions. I had trouble determining the purpose of your edit to Silver Falls State Park, but after close inspection it looks quite good. You could help me and all those who watch articles by filling in the edit summary. I see that you have written good edit summaries in the past: possibly you aren't fully aware of the reasons for doing so. They are mentioned in the {{summary}} template here:

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. —EncMstr 20:00, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Germane

I'm puzzled by your edit summary for this edit: [1]. The old Chembox is deprecated and I'm helping move them. I review every single page I fix using AWB. I didn't see any problem earlier, and I don't see any problem now. There are more than 600 left, from a beginning of more than 2000 so it would be helpful if you can tell me exactly what's wrong, rather than revert it perfunctorily. Thanks. --Rifleman 82 16:39, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
