A Few Rules Before Messaging Me:

  1. If you message me here, I will respond on your talk page unless you request otherwise. I believe this makes things a lot easier for a person to know when they've received a response to their inquiry.
  2. I am not an admin. I did not delete your page or block you. If you want to know why a page was deleted or why you were blocked, please ask the admin responsible for the action.
  3. I am a recent changes patroller and new pages patroller. As such, I see a lot of changes to Wikipedia. Occasionally I even make a mistake and revert something which looked like vandalism but was not. If you inform me of my mistake, I'll most likely apologize and own up to it.
  4. If you contact me, please be civil and assume good faith with me. If you contact me and insult the project, female relatives of my family, or me, I will be much less inclined to listen to your complaint. Uncivil messages are also more likely to be deleted without response.
  5. Those things being said, I am always open to helping new people to the project. Please feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions regarding the project!

[edit] ArrayComm

Hi Redfarmer - I'd be interested to know why you've tagged this page as an advertisement. I modeled it almost entirely on Intel's page, which I notice hasn't received that tag. Originally, the Jargon-free version was the only one tagged as an advert, which I thought could have been misunderstood - so I changed it. But now it appears you've tagged the entire article.

Hi Redfarmer - so in the Jargon-free section, I'm attempting to explain to a non-technical audience what is actually a fairly complicated technical process, by describing a common scenario that most people are familiar with ie. hearing and listening. At the same time, there is a need to tie it into what the company actually does, which is why I've used the "this is what the software does" argument. If you have an alternate suggestion for how this could be re-written as well as which specific reference sounds like an ad, I'll be happy to amend it accordingly. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Maxxthewolf (talk • contribs) 00:42, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The Happening plot spoiler

You should warn people on your article about "The Happening". I read your plot summary and had the premise given to me when I didn't wish to know. You should at least label the spoiler. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Coholt6676 (talk • contribs) 18:00, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] about the change I made to exile to Babylon part

Hi Redfarmer

you recently said an edit I made to a page was unconstructive, can you please Justify that decision

I look forward to hearing from you

see the link I posted about it

I study when the exile occurred as it has a role in Bible prophesy, nothing on your userpage indicates an interest in the bible, in fact you appear to be an atheist

look forward to hearing from you Chris

Regards

Biblical account of exiles The book of Daniel records a deportation of Judaean nobility that occurred in 607 BC, in the reign of Jehoiakim (Daniel 1:1-6; cf. 2 Chronicles 36:6-7). The Book of Jeremiah (Jeremiah 52:28-30) notes three deportations: The first was in the time of Jehoiachin, in 597 BC, when the Temple of Jerusalem was partially despoiled and a number of the leading citizens were removed (2 Kings 24:10-16). After eleven years, in 586 BC, in the reign of Zedekiah, a fresh uprising of the Judaeans occurred. The city and temple of Jerusalem was razed and a further deportation ensued (2 Kings 25:1-21). Finally, five years thereafter, in 581 BC, Jeremiah records a third deportation (Jeremiah 52:30).

[edit] David Eisner

This article appears to be a direct copy of http://www.whitehouse.gov/government/eisner-bio.html. I initially tagged it for speedy, but that doesn't seem fair as this text may be in the public domain as it is published by the U.S. Government. Can you confirm that? BradV 19:29, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Last of the Summer Wine

Hi Redfarmer, thanks for inviting me to participate in this project. Since the article is in such good shape already, I'll just go right to final-polish mode. I'll probably be seeing you on the talk page soon. Cheers! --AnnaFrance (talk) 22:21, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
