This is an example of a Retlend-hater. The name has been removed for the person's own good. I'm not some childish id... HE DID IT!!! *points* The Person Who Is Strange 20:14, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Retlend

The canned "test" message is designed to be polite and relatively neutral. I'm sorry that you were upset that I referred to your creation as a mere "test".

However.

If you're going to submit lengthy detailed articles on complete bullshit that you just made up off the top of your head, here is what will happen:

  1. the garbage articles will be deleted. Each and every one of them.
  2. every edit you have made to a pre-existing article will be scrutinized to see if it, too, is garbage; if so, it will be removed.
  3. you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

This is not a threat or a warning. It is a statement of consequences.

You have no idea how much total garbage gets submitted to Wikipedia each day, and how much time and effort is spent removing it.

Weirdness and Wisconsin aside, Wikipedia is neither a playground nor a dumping ground. If (as you claim) you feel it is a "great place", then treat it as one. DS 14:04, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Haha

Feel free to delete. You are quite strange indeed. Nice page.

[edit] [Fleetwood Mac#Fleetwood Mac (white album)]]

Hey there... Just so you know, your link to The Beatles white album was deleted by another user. I saw the deletion and thought that you were right in linking to it, however, the link was not quite clear and, well, ambiguous, so I suppose that's why the other editor removed it. I replaced it with clearer context. I hope you will find it okay. Thanks for your attention to wikipedia. Just thought I'd let you know that wikilinks are good, but sometimes we need to make it clear(er) for others, or they may see our efforts as unnecessary and revert otherwise good contributions. Hey - I'm new here and don't know if I worded this correctly, but I hope you get my point. Thx again. SteinAlive | ☎ | ☉ 08:41, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edits to global warming

Your edits to global warming have been wholly negative and I have reverted them. Do not restore them. Raul654 15:28, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I'm sorry. Did I disturb your dystopian fantasies? The Person Who Is Strange 15:31, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Doubt it. Looks to be about garbage not about control. --BozMo talk 15:34, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Ditto for global cooling William M. Connolley 15:47, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm sorry, I didn't see where there was a citation for the temperature change statistic. Silly me. I guess I'm insane and the rest of you see it. And also, does that consensus on the talk page mean something. I thought it said there should be a consensus, and there was a consensus on the talk page that global warming was a theory in the "Global Warming Theory" section on the talk page... guess I'm hallucinating... The Person Who Is Strange 16:15, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
For the moment, the question is probably "do you want to be taken seriously"? You're not talking like someone who does. As for the talk page... measuring consensus there can be rather misleading; when people re-open old old debates few bother comment. THe consensus on the page itself is more meaningful William M. Connolley 16:38, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Oh, and wrt the talk page, please remember WP:CIVIL William M. Connolley 16:40, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] YCAGWYW Lennon quote

I also know there's a quote out there by Jagger saying how he admired the Beatle's use of the choir and how he would like to try something like that. I'll have a look, but cite that Lennon quote soon. Stan weller 21:58, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Germany Invitation

Hello, The Person Who Is Strange! I'd like to call your attention to the WikiProject Germany and the German-speaking Wikipedians' notice board. I hope their links, sub-projects and discussions are interesting and even helpful to you. If not, I hope that new ones will be.
