[edit] South Buffalo
I don't know if it was me who removed the paragraph about South Buffalo bars, and I disagree that the article was better before I removed whatever sentences I removed. The article is poorly written, sometimes NPOV and completely unsourced. If the article is important to you, you should try to improve it.
Here are two examples of sentences I am removing today:
(1) Remember the animated watchman that came out of the shack holding a lantern when a train went past. (2) With the development of the waterfront from the Lake Erie end of Tifft St. going north to the Skyway Bridge has contributed somewhat to a revival of the area but the neighborhoods affected by the economic hard times were a number of miles from the waterfront area of South Buffalo.
An example of a neighborhood article you can model it on is here: University District, Seattle. All its sources are cited, and it is organized pretty well, but it is not always NPOV.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Rosary. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policy for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page before reinserting it. Thank you. Buddhipriya 01:40, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Java perf
Howdy; apologies if you think I was too harsh. What I read was "I think Java is too slow" -- which seemed like coming in with a preconception -- "and I'd like someone else to investigate this and report" -- which seemed like either a call for OR, or asking others to do work that you could do pretty much as well as anyone else if it's not OR.
Perhaps my best option at that point was to say "huh" and move on, and here I am passing up that opportunity again. But really, my impression from what you're saying is that you have decided that a serious number of programmers have been led down the garden path, and are looking for others to do the research to confirm or deny this.
A possible alternative for you might be to Google Java performance , pick some likely candidate sources, and cook up a paragraph or two and see how it's received. If you want to be less bold, try it on the talk page first. That way, I think it would feel less like you've got a random question you're throwing out there and more like you're part of the process. If you can't find anything obvious without too much trouble, you might want to reconsider your hypothesis. Java's been out there for a while, and unless there really is a Vast Java Performance Conspiracy, I'd expect there to be something out there about any problems that would make someone reconsider Java as the language for their project.--NapoliRoma 07:11, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:Earlamyotte.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Earlamyotte.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 22:06, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Earl Amyotte
I reverted your re-insertion of the activities of that particular group in the Earl Amyotte article. I believe them to be not in keeping with our policy of neutrality. If you disagree I'd rather not get into a thing, so perhaps we might discuss how best to word the edit. regards Xdenizen (talk) 04:11, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] memristor
Hi Roesser, I reverted your changes in memristor... I don't disagree with your premise. But it would be a good idea, if you're going to claim something is "excessively slow" for some reason, to say more about the reason and to give a numerical order of magnitude for speed. I already did both those things in a new paragraph under the Titanium dioxide memristor section... do you believe something is still missing? Potatoswatter (talk) 02:25, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing, such as the edit you made to Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam/LinkReports/pe.com. If your vandalism continues, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. βcommand 17:43, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
