[edit] BSC Project

Thanks for letting me know - I'll take a look at the project. --Shruti14 t c s 22:37, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
Ditto :) I'll definitely be checking when I have a chance!! AffirmationChick (talk) 07:19, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: The Color of Friendship

The hatnote for The Color of Friendship is now at the 1981 version. You said yourself that it should be one or the other, so that's where it is. Please don't tamper with my work any more.Cbsite (talk) 01:45, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

And please don't harass me on my talk page any more, either. Thank you. Cbsite (talk) 11:40, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

As a courtesy, I'm letting you know that I left a post on the Administers' noticeboard asking for intervention in this dispute. That last revert and threatening me with blocking are entirely inappropriate. Cbsite (talk) 02:45, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

You might want to join in at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#User:_Propaniac if you'd like. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 02:59, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
I did notify you that I was appealing this to an administrator; I've put it in bold (above).
BTW, the issue was resolved Friday night; there's no reason to persue it any further. The administrator said he didn't really care about the disambig/hatnote combination, he did not do the revert himself and it should have just been left alone.

[edit] The Color of Friendship

The main thing is that the issue would seem ambiguous unless I reviewed the exact detailed guidelines and it would have clearer if someone just linked to the specific subsection and quoted the exact text instead of the analysis that Pax was doing (plus the comments were completely out of order). I think I have seen a few with two articles listed as disambig but I might be wrong. However, your first comment "it makes more sense to redirect to one and place a hatnote there directing users to the other" doesn't indicate the proper guideline and seemed like an opinion, which Cbsite differed from; from then on, there was no indication from the edit summaries that there was even a discussion on the talk page (especially since a redirect often has the talk page simply redirected as well). For me, a disambig is always less controversial than a redirect to one article (it opens to a fight over which article to be redirected to), but I don't really care that much. I'm watching the redirect now but it looks like User:Cbsite has moved on. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 20:51, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Finally had to block but asking for review at WP:ANI. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 20:02, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of fictional literature mentioning opera (Pt. 2)

Thanks for your note. Yeah, a lot of work went into that list. I don't quite understand why you have the need to delete because there are a lot of such lists on Wikipedia. Rather than see it as something to be gotten rid of, you should take a more positive attitude and try to suggest specific ways to improve it, or start doing the work yourself. It's easy to delete an article; it's much more work to create one that's useful to people.

I'll bring up your points on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Opera project and see if there's interest in filling it out to prevent deletion. -- kosboot (talk) 03:11, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
