[edit] Batman Stories

I hope you will consider your statement about the Batman stories which are proposed for deletion.

You suggested that two of the stories should be 'given a chance' as they could be built upon. However you considered the Ten Nights of The Beast article to be the weakest of the three articles and still considered that it should be deleted.

I'd like it if you could review the changes I have made to this article (the weakest of the three) and consider whether, if given time each of the three articles proposed for deletion could be extended to become valid.

[edit] Passive aggression?

That really going to work? All it says is just "warn the offender" i've seen discussion pages laden with warnings dating to last year. Zerocannon 11:06, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Roald Dahl

I apologise for my edit summary, it was really a release of frustration. The Anome blocked my account by mistake, and then when confronted about it claimed his block was because of the "context" of my reversions. Sadly he failed to take into account that in over zealously reverting my edits he returned the pages to vandalised versions which pretty much destroyed any possibility that he was reverting solely because of the context of my edits, later compounded in that he failed to correct his mistakes despite being notified of them twice. He then locked my old talk page to prevent any criticisms of his actions. If The Anome has simply admitted his mistake rather than making excuses none of this would have sufficed, but as stands this is the sad situation we have ended up in. 58.164.7.68 08:59, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

I just wanted to personally thank you for all your clean up work. Its hard for me, when I am in the fury of expression or thought to cross my T's and dot my I's. Your work makes wikipedia look much more professional, and erodite. And also thank you for looking into the recent edits. That is the first front against vandalism.

[edit] 3RR

I won't be so rude as to slap a 3RR template warning on here, as I can see your edits on the NIN page were done with the best of intentions, and feel free to delete this message as soon as you have read it.......however you seem to be on 4 reverts within the last 24hrs on that article, and someone might be an ass about it and report you. Sennen goroshi (talk) 14:31, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

I am aware of the 3R rule but I think I have a fair few legs to stand on when it's reverting vandalism on today's featured article... MorganaFiolett (talk) 14:57, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
If it was reverting blatant vandalism, then of course you have no issues...I didn't really check the content of the edits you were reverting, so I can't really comment on if it was vandalism or not. If it was a content dispute, then the 3RR applies. Anyway I hope some idiot isn't really anal about this and reports you, as it seems a shame to get a decent editor blocked. Anyway, I hope you understand that I was in no way, trying to bust your ass, I just didn't wanna see you take any shit over this..latersSennen goroshi (talk) 15:26, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Well, aside from the linear/liner typo, yeah it was all pretty blatant vandalism, so I reckon I'm ok. Thank you for the heads up though. MorganaFiolett (talk) 15:28, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Carey Barnes

Thanks for letting me know about the hangon tag. I did advise the user on their talk page that they needed to add the curly brackets, but didn't feel it was appropriate to add myself (and assumed it would look as if I'd added the hangon tag anyway). I'll try and be more helpful if it happens in the future Gaffertape (talk) 17:04, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Timeline of PFP

Thanks. I think I'll userfy it thought to get it out of everybody's way. :) Abyssal leviathin (talk) 22:11, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Can you help me?

Catholic user Cuchullain continues to censure the article Religion in the United States. --Esimal (talk) 19:56, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

He censures also advices in his talk. --Esimal (talk) 19:58, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Hi. I just wanted to say thanks for reverting the vandalism on my page. ·Add§hore· Talk/Cont 21:44, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] number of countries in europe

You initiated a discussion on the Europe talk page, which you have seemingly abandoned afterwards. I can imagine you are interested to see what has been discussed in the meantime as we might be approaching consensus. I have to admit that only very few people were involved. So, an additional opinion would be appreciated. Tomeasy (talk) 08:25, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

To be honest, I asked because I wanted an answer for something I'm writing- I've been watching the page and it seems pretty obvious that there really isn't one answer! MorganaFiolett (talk) 13:05, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Warsaw Old Town

Thanks for the heads up about the coordinates given for this article. The earlier coordinates added by the bot were taken from the Spanish-language wiki; as you say, they seem to be some way off. I've relocated the coordinates for this article in what I hope is the correct place. I'd greatly appreciate it if you could take a quick look to check if I've got the right place. -- The Anome (talk) 14:53, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Number of Countries

Thank you for trying to help me out on the Europe talk page but I still believe that circa # of countries is just not the right thing to use.Based on what can you exclude countries like cyprus and the likes? I do not know exactly which ones you are excluding as no one has ever stated, but I am just guessing that cyprus is one of them. If you wish to keep the circa 50 then I strongly believe that you should explicitly state which ones are included/excluded and why. Also mentioning it only on the talk page does not make any difference if there is not a note that asks people to actually SEE the talk page to understand the situation.--Coniatis (talk) 23:27, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

I have responded on the Europe talk page as well, but basically... the point of using "circa" is not to specifically exclude or include any particular countries. We can't use an exact number because there isn't one, universally agreed, exact number- as stated in the article, there are no agreed boundaries for what is and what isn't Europe, and there are disputes over a number of countries- not just Cyprus, and I'm not sure why you seem to have jumped to the conclusion that this is about Cyprus. It isn't mentioned only on the talk page- in the lead paragraph of the article itself it currently states that Europe "hosts a large number of sovereign states (ca. 50), whose precise number depends on the underlying definition of Europe's border, as well as on the in- or exclusion of semi-recognized states." I'm not sure how we can be any less vague about an ill-defined figure. MorganaFiolett (talk) 08:47, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
