[edit] June 2007

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Romualdo Pacheco. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content which gains a consensus among editors. emerson7 | Talk 17:39, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

tit-for-tat? lol...very mature. the facts remain the same. you are way off-base in your synthesis. you should simply take some time to cool your jets and review just how many of the redundant, deprecated navs have been--and are being--replaced. re the vandal revert....mea culpa, that was honestly and accident. cheers! --emerson7 | Talk 19:22, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


Hi there, I noticed you've been talking to emerson7 about his edits. I'm having some problems too. He doesn't reply to messages and I find a lot of his edits to be detrimental, particularly in the case of the Takemitsu article which I'm working very hard at to get to FA quality. Not sure what to do... Matt.kaner 22:14, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Quotation typo

Hi. Not a criticism, but a question. You corrected a typo in an quote that I placed in the American Cookery article. The spelling of millennia is, of course, correct. However, the spelling from the quotation source was millenia. I copy/pasted it. Are we supposed to leave direct quotes as they are, including spelling errors and such? Or not? I always had the understanding that in research (especially historical research), one should quote exactly, character by character, warts and all. Not sure what WP policy is, and can't seem to find it. Thanks. — Becksguy 05:39, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm, I don't really know. In such cases, you'll often see (sic) in a quote. It might matter whether the quote is from a written source or originally from a spoken source. If the former, I would leave it misspelled and add (sic). If the latter, I'd probably fix it. Those are my two cents - I'll leave it up to you for the final decision.  :) WRK (talk) 11:55, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The new NHL uniform is a new jersey, not the state of New Jersey

Just thought you'd like to know, since you made the edit.  :P Croctotheface 19:01, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Woops. Sorry about that. WRK (talk) 01:01, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
