[edit] Template:Citations missing TFD
Hey, I saw that you put this up for TFD, but there doesn't appear to be a listing for this template there. Am I missing something? GlassCobra 00:33, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, check that, the discussions for the 5th haven't been listed on the page yet. Apologies. GlassCobra 00:34, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] The Romans
Hi, sorry that I didn't give a very good explanation about my redirect. The problem is that there is no good place to send The Romans, because there is no article about the people of Rome. Usually when someone adds a link to Romans, it just becomes redirected to Rome anyways. This could be fixed by writing an article named Roman citizen or something like that.--Mynameisnotpj (talk) 01:40, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Torpedo ram
Hi, noticed you added an unreferenced tag in the article Torpedo ram. I think the article need to be marked as stub or an "expand" tag is needed. What you think? Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 00:05, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Film AfD discussion
Hi, I noticed your other comments on AfD disccusions for film. Would you mind having a look at this one: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fraught? Thank you! Dgf32 (talk) 16:35, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Question about "orphaned articles
About how many credible links should I look to create? Thanks for letting me know about this, didn't know there was such a items as being orphaned. It is me i think (talk) 17:20, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Audrey Mullender
I see that you added Audrey Mullender to the category. I have removed her from this category because she is, as far as I can tell, not a member of the academic staff of the university, nor a member of the Congregation of the university. She is the principal of an autonomous academic institution in the City of Oxford that maintains a connection with the University of Oxford but is not part of it. However, I thought it was just possible that you know something that I don't, so thought I would mention it.--Oxonian2006 (talk) 15:55, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Conclusion: Image placeholders centralized discussion
Hi. I'm sending this to you because you participated in the Centralized discussion on image placeholders that ended on 23 April.
That discussion must produce a conclusion.
We originally asked "Should the addition of this box [example right] be allowed? Does the placeholder system and graphic image need to be improved to satisfy policies and guidelines for inclusion? Is it appropriate to some kinds of biographies, but not to others?" (See introduction).
Conclusions to centralized discussions are either marked as 'policy', 'guideline', 'endorsed', 'rejected', 'no consensus', or 'no change' etc. We should now decide for this discussion.
Please read and approve or disapprove the section here: Conclusion --Kleinzach (talk) 11:25, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
Please note this message conforms to WP:CANVASSING and has not been sent to anyone has not already participated in the centralized discussion.
[edit] Money Reform Party deletion
Hey - is the deletion for Money Reform Party going through AFD? Just that to be frank I agree with the nomination! I think in this case the article was created to make the Election Box metadata/election results tables look a little better, but I am going back a bit so memory not too clear. They are a party which stands in local elections but that isn't notable really, so unless someone forces this to go to discussion, I say its good enough to delete. doktorb wordsdeeds 05:45, 22 May 2008 (UTC) The Money Reform Party article is now going through the formal articles for deletion processWikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Money_Reform_Party at which you are invited to make comment and vote on this deletion proposal doktorb wordsdeeds 11:58, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Pride in Paisley Party
I pulled the PROD and started an AFD for the reasons described in the AFD and on Talk:Pride in Paisley Party. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 00:05, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Bernadette Protti
This is kind of old (almost a year old actually), but you proposed that the Bernadette Protti be merged with the Kirsten Costas article. After having looked at both articles, I couldn't agree more. One anonymous IP answered your proposal about eight days ago, so if you want to get that discussion going again, I'd be willing to help out with the merging, cleaning up, etc. I'm actually thinking a redirect to Costas' page would be more appropriate since Protti's page is basically just sections of Costas' page that were copied & pasted. Sorry if this is out of left field, I just stumbled on the page today and was about to clean it up when I realized I could save myself some time. Pinkadelica 00:04, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- I totally support the redirect in case anyone objects (doubt that but you never know around here!). Thanks for doing it. Pinkadelica 02:33, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Political Parties..?
A (very) draft discussion on the policy on political parties has been started by me here - User:Doktorbuk/pp. If you can assist with this discussion, or know how to help me get this policy looked at, advanced, and accepted by the larger Wiki community, please let me know. Many thanks doktorb wordsdeeds 19:09, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Article length
I do appreciate your comments. At the present time, however, I feel completely burned out by Wikipedia, and do not expect to do any substantive editing. While I don't want to burn bridges, I am finding Citizendium to fit my preferred style much better than Wikipedia. If Citizendium does reach critical mass, I doubt I will do any more work here.
Under those circumstances, it would seem only fair for a serious editor at WP to make any changes that seemed appropriate; my ego will not be harmed. While I will stop in and look at things, unless there are very basic changes in the structure of Wikipedia, perhaps the most fundamental issue is that I do not want to write in an environment that permits anonymity and, with notable exceptions such as the Sri Lanka Reconciliation Project, has no mechanism for resolving content issues. I also prefer a place that does permit verified expertise to be used rather than finding secondary sources for everything, and, indeed, encouraging carefully controlled original synthesis.
If Citizendium doesn't work out, I'll look at other possibilities including my own site, but, having worked in networked collaborative environments before the term "Internet" existed, generally find anonymous environments to suffer from the Tragedy of the Commons.

[edit] Unreferenced article tag
I notice you've been busily adding this template to articles under the woodworking section. On your user page you say "On advice from another user, I now only do this when the article contains unsourced statements that are likely to be challenged." So how does that sit with your current activities? Have you found any "unsourced statements that are likely to be challenged"? If so, perhaps you could assist by pointing them out. I've never seen the point of the wholesale application of this template. It's quite distracting and unattractive having that banner at the top of every page. I'm about to undo your edits, unless you can give a good reason not to. SilentC (talk) 03:58, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] WP:HAU
Hello yet again. I regretfully inform you that the bot we were using to update the user status at Wikipedia:Highly Active Users, SoxBot V, was blocked for its constant updating. With this bot out of operation, a patch is in the works. Until that patch is reviewed and accepted by the developers, some options have been presented to use as workarounds: 1) Qui monobook (not available in Internet Explorer); 2) User:Hersfold/StatusTemplate; 3) Manually updating User:StatusBot/Status/USERNAME; or 4) Not worry about it and wait for the patch to go through, which hopefully won't take long. If you have another method, you can use that, too. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Useight (talk) 22:26, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
