[edit] Introductions: Dab
hello Seth, and welcome to Wikipedia; you can sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~), which will make them easier to attribute, and put your talkpage within one mouseclick. Regarding Zweihänder, I am sure we can reach an agreement. I am aware of the extended discussions on swordforum.com, and have been meaning to exploit them for the article for some time. Clearly, the "spear-cutting" has not much credibility, and I am happy to go from "Some scholars suggest that this is a latter-day legend" to "Most scholars". It would however be best to compile a proper "References" section to refer to. I do maintain that the point needs to be addressed, if only because so much ink has been spilled to dispel it. I am also aware of the discussions about the Goliath swords. This is a matter of terminology. The swords are Zweihänder by size, but they lack the characteristic ornaments. As with any sword classification system, there will be specimens that fall between categories, because transitions are seamless. I will not insist the Goliath swords "are" Zweihänder at all, but they certainly deserve discussion or mention on the Zweihänder article. I am not sure what other points you refer to, but you are most welcome to add more material and references. I reverted much of your edit because you removed information. The Marx brothers are certainly on topic. Of course they were founded in the 15th century, but they were very much alive in the heyday of the Zweihänder, and the Doppelsöldner constitute a direct link between the brotherhood and the Zweihänder used (or carried about, as the case may be) in warfare. regards, dab (ᛏ) 20:03, 19 December 2005 (UTC) PS, re your question of "who are you", here is a link to my SFI user page. dab (ᛏ) 20:09, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Adoption
Hello, Sethwoodworth! I see that you have expressed an interest in being adopted by an experienced editor. I accept your request, being an experienced editor myself. Whether you want to learn about wiki markup, find something to do, or just talk to somebody, I'm the one you can talk to - just leave a message on my talk page. Good luck with Wikipedia! --Daniel Olsen 02:50, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Adoptee
Well, who replies where is a bit fuzzy. Some people like to keep conversation in one place or the other, and some people reply both on their talk page and on the other person's, but those of us who don't like double posting or having to use a watchlist too much just always post to the other person's talk page, which has the convinience of puttting that nice orange reminder at the top of any page you go to. As long as you're not deleting comments, you can pretty much converse however you'd like. --Daniel Olsen 01:34, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Olliver Kirby
Sorry about the page for Olliver Kirby, some asshole put up personal opinions about it, I will delete it and keep it as a nuetral article about a guitarist. I will try to put more sources and links. I started the page a little while ago, and I'm didn't even finish the first band. Please remove the speedy deletion thing. This is and should be a nuetral article about a mediocre artist. If you don't believe me you can check the site history. No Hard Feelings? Wikimindless 19:41, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
P.S. the page isn't an autobiography
P.S.S. It is possible that user:wormdoggy is... well, maybe biased
Oh well, guess it's too late for that now, all hard work for nothingWikimindless 04:36, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Moses Lake
No problem, Sethwoodworth. My last edit to the article was copy-editing the shooting paragraph. I agree the shooting could be handled better.
Do you live in Moses Lake? I grew up there, and attended kindergarten through 12th grade in ML schools. I graduated from high school in 1966 and have lived in various places since.

In case you didn't see this on my page:
Sorry for the late reply, but I've been sick. I lived in Cascade Valley. Rick Rosenow was a close neighbor and Clifford Horn, before he drowned right after high school, was a more distant neighbor. His mother Jody and my mother Dorothy were close frieds. --Rbraunwa 23:35, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
