I will generally continue discussion where our conversation started. Thus, if I posted on your talk page first, I will usually continue discussion there; if you posted on this page first, I will usually continue discussion here; and if either of us posted on another page first, I will usually continue discussion there.
Note: At this time, I am not very active on Wikipedia, typically editing for only one or two hours per week. Therefore, I may take four or more days to respond to your messages. I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, and I hope to resume active editing within a reasonable time frame.
[edit] {{db-bio}} on images
Regarding this edit you made to Image:Warhol lisa.jpg, please note that the {{db-bio}} speedy deletion tag is for articles, not images. I have therefore removed it. The details of the various reasons for speedy deletion can be found at Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion. If you believe that that the above image should be deleted, you should take it to Wikipedia:Images for deletion. Let me know if you have any question on any of this. --TheParanoidOne 23:20, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] wheelchair organizations
Wouldn't a list of wheelchair organizations be factual, just like a List of Current NBA Team Rosters or List of agricultural organizations? I fail to understand how this is different.

[edit] Why do you keep replacing the dashes in my signature?
I don't know if perhaps the text editor you use simply doens't support Unicode, or if you are doing it deliberately, but every page you edit gets all of the — (—) characters in the text replaced with double hyphens (--). (example) It's quite annoying, so if there's anything you can do to stop it, it would be appreciated. —Doug Bell talk 04:15, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Regarding your attempted MFD
Even though I'm opposed to your listing of the Department of Fun for deletion, you may find step for step instructions on how to list miscellany for deletion at this link. bibliomaniac15 00:39, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Regarding the Mariner Square page
I just wrote all that a minute ago, and I also just edited it so it didnt sound so commercial. Ive been there and seen these attractions so I was just trying to give detail to these places. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hadley1978 (talk • contribs)

Why do you want me to replay so bad?--Pediaguy16 18:17, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] User talk:Pediaguy16
I think you have misinterpreted some things here on Wikipedia:
- First, it not disruptive to not respond to another persons comment, rude or incivil in some cases, but not disruptive.
- Edits like this are far more disruptive than letting an issue go.
- Adding a userbox is nothing very suspicious, as far as I tell, all you have to do to join is add the userbox, so asking him to remove it until he joins is rather redundant because all he has to do to join is add the userbox or add himself to the category, which the userbox automatically does.
- And I honestly don't know why you changed the "—" in my signature to "--" [1] That was rather pointless. semper fi — Moe 21:42, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
-
- Replying to you in order:
- I doubt very much that Pediaguy16 is playing a hoax by adding a userbox to his userpage. Nothing needs doing, and if he choices not to respond to you, then he doesn't have to.
- I disagree with you and I already know Wikipedia talk page policies. Theres nothing wrong with him not responding, it's his choice if he wants to and it's not your place to enforce that he does. Maybe one message to see if he will respond, but 5-6 messages is excessive and has been labeled trolling before.
- He is in the category for being in the CVU if you bothered to check the bottom of his userpage or the category you would have seen that he was already marked in it [2] Again, even if he hasn't reverted vandalism yet, theres nothing wrong with having the userbox on his userpage and it's not your place to enforce that he either remove the userbox or start vandal reverting.
- Another tip I suggest is that you not use the Dillo web browser if it has been causing problems. semper fi — Moe 20:51, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- Replying to you in order:
Its ok--Pediaguy16 23:48, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Question

[edit] Wikipedia Game
One of the objects in the wikipedia game is to add internal links. This does not mean adding false links to terms without articles, then adding a "cleanup" tag in recognition of the fact that most of the links you added go nowhere. In other words, don't make a mess and leave it for somebody else to clean up.

[edit] Clayton mark
Hi, I have removed the speedy tag from Clayton mark since the guy exists and, therefore, the article is not nonsense. Whether he is sufficiently notable for a page is another question. I think he has done enough bits and pieces but if you remain concerned then an AfD is the way to go. TerriersFan 20:35, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't quite understand whether you understood what I mean. YOUr computer substituted fonts: like,
- uk:¿¿¿¿¿ + uk:Кухня
Do you see differences? If you don't click at the left version and see (and tell me what you see). `'mikkanarxi 00:41, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
Thx. `'mikkanarxi 02:03, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] re: your sig
Hi - As a follow-on to the comment about your sig at Wikipedia:Village pump (policy), is there some reason you need a link to your contribs, or your current focus article? I don't really care very much, but I'm just curious. I'd imagine the number of folks interested in looking at your contribs is very, very small. You're presumably trying to drum up interest in your current focus article with the other link, but it seems like it probably won't age well. -- Rick Block (talk) 05:32, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Speedy deletion
Fair enough. This was his debut performance for the team, so I'll wait until he appears more before I think about including him to Wikipedia. Bobo. 07:06, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Actually, now that I think about it..
I'd rather defend in your direction the fact that the article exists. I have created several articles on Namibian cricketers, dating back to their founding as a cricketing nation in 1994. To add Ruhann Burden to the list is merely to add the latest in a long line of the team's debutantes, including Henno Prinsloo[3], Dawid Botha, etc..
I think this is a sensible reasoning, what about you? Bobo. 07:15, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RFA Questions
Thanks for changing the questions. I am opposed to these types of questions in the first place, because of their history of causing potential candidates to shoot themselves in the foot by having to answer constructed situations that in all likelihood, wouldn't happen, and if they did, would probably a) cause the candidate to seek help first or avoid the problem altogether, and/or b) cause huge amounts of admin and community input, insomuch that a single admin wouldn't make a difference. However, in reality, they probably haven't affected the actual outcomes of hardly any RFA's, with the possible exception of some like Wikiwoohoo, who seemed to be killed by the answer regarding indef-blocking IPs, which I think was really a simple mistake of not reading policy thoroughly before answering (and really, he had no responsibility to yet, since he wasn't actually considering blocking anyone). Anyway, I thought I'd just say thanks for changing the questions, and that to make a POINT, I'm going to have to think of some particularly ridiculous questions for you, should you open an RFA :) -- Renesis (talk) 08:02, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Your lecture
Is this concerning your comment which I had removed from my talk page which was reverted by Someguy? If it is, what's with the "please stop" conference? I am trying to get my act together you know... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Power level (Dragon Ball) (talk • contribs)
- Yes but, what's the warning for? I've changed my ways, haven't I? And if you think I'm still using socks, why don't you use CheckUser to find out?

- Okay, why do you suggest that I read WP:sock, etc., if you can tell that I'm changing my ways already? Power level (Dragon Ball)(So it was you and your mom in 1000 B.C.)|(What's the matter baby girl, don't you like what you see?) 18:50, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- Everything that you're asking for me to read is what I'm really trying to improve on. What are you really trying to say here? Power level (Dragon Ball)(So it was you and your mom in 1000 B.C.)|(What's the matter baby girl, don't you like what you see?)18:54, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Your warning to 71.149.129.56
Hi. Thanks for contacting me on my talk page. The reason I warned the anon with a {{subst:test2}} is because I had faced a series of vandals vandalizing multiple pages with different accounts. This, however wasn't the case, and yes, he deserved a {{subst:test0}} or {{subst:test}}. After I made the edit however, I just continued vandal fighting as I assumed it not to be good faith, and thus gave this to him. Either way, it's about opinion, and test2 doesn't even warn him about being blocked, only that it could be seen as vandalism. I usually, however, try to warn unintentionals with a test or test1 template. Thanks again for contacting me. Alex43223 Talk | Contribs | E-mail 02:12, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
