[edit] Brown

Oops, I just tried to email you but perhaps I should have posted a message here instead. I saw your comments on the Critical Review article and I was just curious as to which years you attended Brown? - NBS525 16:39, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Either way works. '84-'90, and hung around campus for a couple of years afterwards, since I lived in Providence at the time.--SarekOfVulcan 22:58, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] facebook

I kinda foolishly started over the facebook voting debate at Talk:Facebook_(website)#Voting (because there were some comments like waffle iron's that weren't clear whether or not they were voting and for what). I have now realized that not everyone who commented before may have had it on their watchlist so I am sending this to anyone that commented earlier and has not yet (re)voted. Sorry. --L1AM 07:08, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Is video.google.com a reliable source?

Re Leeroy Jenkins on World of Warcraft. Syrthiss 13:19, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

I would argue that in this instance, video.google.com provides the primary source. In this part of the World of Warcraft article, the point of discussion is a video clip which has become popular among players, and the way people have been able to find it and view it so easily is video.google.com. People have been able to find and view the Jeopardy! clip so easily for the same reason. I would agree that this may not technically qualify as a reliable source because it does not corroborate the claim -- it is rather a specific example of what the article is discussing.

[edit] Facebook Vandals Club

Greetings. I'd like to bring to your attention the existence of a club on facebook known as GLOBAL Wikipedia Vandals. If you read the discussion, two such vandals gloat over the unnoticed vandalism that they have managed to insert into articles. Do you think it's worth trying to infiltrate the group so as to find out what articles were vandalized? If so, what might be the best approach? Biruitorul 23:03, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Andover, MA High School

Do you know how many people the AHS Collins Centre can hold? You're probably right. It most likely is more than 250; I counted the seats once. I might count them again and write it down, then find a source to verify this fact. 250 was just a ballpark, anyway; I'll change it.

[edit] AHS Collins Centre

Okay, thanks. I'll look for those capacity signs the next time I'm down there.

[edit] Question About Facebook Gifts

I am new here, and can't figure out how to email you a message (how do I?). Saw your entry on the Gifts section of facebook article, and hoped that you could provide some info. Does anyone have any estimates on the volume of $1 facebook gifts sold, both before and after the new apps allowed free gifts? They claim limited editions of 100k or 1M, but I wonder if that's real or hype. Thanks so much. Robert rtolmach 19 Aug 2007
