[edit] Black Sabbath Lyrics
Thank you very much for correcting the Best of Black Sabbath "War Pigs" lyrics, although I could have swore that it was lawn chairs or something. Oh well, you corrected me, and thank you for it.

[edit] Classic Rock
Hello. I was wondering if you would like to participate in my classic rock survey. I'm trying to find the most like classic rock song. There is more information on my user page. Hope you participate! RENTASTRAWBERRY FOR LET? röck 00:17, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
- I've updated my Classic Rock List with your songs. You might find that some of your votes aren't present. If that is so it is because I felt that those songs weren't truly classic rock. If you have any comments feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. RENTAFOR LET? 02:26, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
- I've added all your songs to the list (most of your picks were already on them) except for the song Love Bites. My reasoning for not putting it on was because the band wrote the song in 1988 I belive. I feel that classic rock is strictly permitted to the '60s and '70s. However if you strongly disagree with my reasoning, I'll be happy to put it into the list. RENTAFOR LET? 04:06, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

In Comparison of BitTorrent software you changed FLOSS to Free/Libre/Open-Source Software. This is too long for a table heading, so reverted it. Is that okay with you? --logixoul 11:55, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, it's okay, but the link just pointed to the redirect, so as long as it now goes to Free/Libre/Open Source Software, then it's fine.--Someoneinmyheadbutit'snotme 14:40, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 04:15, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question
Just wondering: what was the purpose of this and this edit to this week's collaborations? RexNL 23:56, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply. It is not necessary to optimize the code of an article by removing the whitespace around templates, images and interwiki links. It makes the code harder to read (especially for newcomers). Also, it doesn't affect the size of the article itself, since the parser automatically skips line breaks after templates, images and interwiki links. Thanks for the effort though.

[edit] Marijuana Wiki
Hi there,
I see that you are a pro-Cannabis Wikipedian so I hope this will be of some interest to you.
I've started a Marijuana wiki (aka The Sticky Wiki) which I think you might be interested in. I'm hoping you can help me get started with this project. Whereas lots of articles about weed get speedy-deleted on Wikipedia, they would be totally cool over at MarijuanaWiki. But really I want the site to be more of a marijuana community than merely an encyclopedia.
To give you an example, I want to have city guides about where to score, find pot-friendly cafes, marijuana events, and what represents a good price in that city. Etc. (You can check out the featured article: "Toronto" to see what I mean). I also want to have grow diaries and marijuana blogs. All in all, basically more communal than encyclopedic.
I am in need of admins/moderators, and people experienced with MediaWiki to help build policy, categories, and templates, etc. If you'd be interested in helping me with this project, the URL is MarijuanaWiki
Thanks for your time and consideration. Hope to see you there!
p.s. Pink Floyd is my favorite band ;)
-- nsandwich 00:28, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for coming on board. It seems you have a lot of experience when it comes to editing/moderating so I would like to +admin you if that's ok with you. I am a little out of my league when it comes to some of the technical stuff like template-design.
- A good place to start writing would be if you could put together a city guide for your city ;)

In response to the message posted on my userpage. 1) Sweet. 2) It's not a secret. Check out the handy "edit" button. 3) I'd prefer if you directed messages to the talk page, rather than just posting on the user page.

[edit] My concern about your username
Hello, Someoneinmyheadbutit'snotme, and welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?
I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.
You have several options freely available to you:
- If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
- If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as asking for a "third opinion", or requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
- You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the guidelines there.
Let me reassure you that my writing here means I don't think your username is grossly, blatantly, or obviously inappropriate; such names get reported straight to Wikipedia:Usernames for administrator attention or blocked on sight. This is more a case where opinions might differ, and it would be good to reach some consensus — either here or at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names. So I look forward to a friendly discussion, and to enjoying your continued participation on Wikipedia. Thank you. — N96 23:06, 21 June 2007 (UTC) 23:06, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I have been contributing for over two years now with this username, and far from anyone taking issue with it, I have received a few complements for it. I fail to note which point of the guideline could apply to my username and I think you should state more explicitly which aspect of it causes you concern. Someoneinmyheadbutit'snotme 01:41, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
No worries, the result was 
Allow your username anyway. Regards. NikoSilver 12:50, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Wow, I didn't even realize there was already a RFC for it! Someoneinmyheadbutit'snotme 18:14, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ---
A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age, she considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat and was very much in favor of the redistribution of wealth.
She was deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch Republican, a feeling she openly expressed. Based on the lectures that she had participated in and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt that her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish desire to keep what he thought should be his.
One day she was challenging her father on his opposition to higher taxes on the rich and the addition of more government welfare programs. The self-professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be the truth and she indicated so to her father. He responded by asking how she was doing in school. Taken aback, she answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA and let him know that it was tough to maintain, insisting that she was taking a very difficult course load and was constantly studying, which left her no time to go out and party like other people she knew. She didn't even have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have many college friends because she spent all her time studying.
Her father listened and then asked, "How is your friend Audrey doing?" She replied, "Audrey is barely getting by. All she takes are easy classes, she never studies and she barely has a 2.0 GPA. She is so popular on campus, college for her is a blast. She's always invited to all the parties and lots of times she doesn't even show up for classes because she's too hung over."
Her wise father asked his daughter, "Why don't you go to the Dean's office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off your GPA and give it to your friend who only has a 2.0. That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair and equal distribution of GPA."
The daughter, visibly shocked by her father's suggestion, angrily fired back, "That wouldn't be fair! I have worked really hard for my grades! I've invested a lot of time, and a lot of hard work! Audrey has done next to nothing toward her degree. She played while I worked my tail off!"
The father slowly smiled, winked and said gently, "Welcome to the Republican Party." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chenzo23 (talk • contribs) 21:09, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Speedy deletion of Template:User knows
A tag has been placed on Template:User knows requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.
If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).
