Young Liberals and Liberal Students are two totally independent organisations. Calling people acting in their capacity as one to be representatives of the other is not correct. Xtra 06:45, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Special:Newpages Speedy Deletions

You may want to specify the reason in the different tag... such as putting {{db-nonsense}} instead of {{db|nonsense}}. More can be found at Category:Speedy deletion templates. Cbrown1023 15:13, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] IPhone

You have recently re-created the article IPhone, which was deleted in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policies. Please do not re-create the article. If you disagree with the article's deletion, you may ask for a deletion review.

This article was deleted per the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/IPhone. Basically, the subject is speculative, with little (if any) verifiable substance. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. This may come to pass, or may not. In the meantime, the article may not be recreated without first undergoing a Deletion Review.

[edit] LIAR

You, sir, are a resplendant fucking liar, no such person could do as you do. Take some pills and go away. Your kind is not welcome here. The glovebox is full of rotting ants at the moment, the line must be traversed. A crow 'pon my shoulder. THERE IS NO EXIT. R.A Huston 08:49, 26 November 2006 (UTC) And remember that.

Indeed. DarkSideOfTheSpoon 09:00, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

I cannot for the life of me remember the source of my outburst, but I stick by it, damn it, and don't you dare forget it, you fucking liar. A crow 'pon my shoulder. THERE IS NO EXIT. R.A Huston (talk) 10:03, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello,

Just to let you know that the Featured Picture Image:Fredmeyer edit 1.jpg is due to make an appearance as Picture of the Day on March 29, 2007. If you get a chance, you can check and improve the caption at Template:POTD/2007-03-29. howcheng {chat} 18:21, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Peter Overton

Simply adding the {{vprotected}} template does not protect a page, as evidenced by the fact that people are still editing the Peter Overton article. An admin needs to protect it, and I've already put in a request over on WP:RFPP. --Imroy 03:42, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

lol, I just realised that a moment ago. Cheers. DarkSideOfTheSpoon 03:45, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Milton Pitts

Glad you like the Milton Pitts article. Thanks for the encouragement. I've expanded it a good bit if you're interested. Cheers, Dce7 06:36, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Good stuff. Sounds like an interesting character. Gotta love that "my scissors are neither Republican nor Democrat" quote. I'm amazed The West Wing never had an anecdote about him. Cheers. Rothery 08:12, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Logies

Thanks for that. I have updated the Logie Awards articles during the broadcast for the last few years now. It gives me somthing to do during speeches!! Cheers -- Ianblair23 (talk) 13:36, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

  • I figured out the issue - the template has to contain a link to the same article the image is used in. See my comment on the image itself. Cheers, Mackensen (talk) 03:45, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
