[edit] Skeiv
Did you mean to create this article in some other language's Wikipedia? --Orange Mike 07:05, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Yes, did so... Trying now to fix it. But how? It was some bug that logged me out when I wanted to log into the Norwegian earlier. Then I guess I got confused with that the interface is more sophisticated but also a strange blend of the languages. Curious of why I am not allowed to log in into the Norwegian wikipedia???

[edit] Teacher
I want to personally say "thank you" for your comments at Talk:Teacher. I agree there are major changes that need to be made, and would support any expansion that you are proposing. Make sure your additions are referenced, and almost everything you're putting forth should be fine. • Freechild'sup? 08:19, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- I went through and wikified a lot of the content you added, and I am sure that you will stir up a lot of debate about the changes you made. The most important thing you can do now is go back and add reliable citations to your additions. Thanks again for your contributions. • Freechild'sup? 22:57, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Your recent edits
Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 01:33, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Vajrasattva
Hi, I'm hoping you can clarify more in the Vajrasattva article what you mean by initiation. The edits from two months ago seem fine to me but I'm not sure what was meant and in the lead paragraph I'm hoping it would be really clear for a novice what all the key terms mean. Could you expand on that some? Especially with a citation that further details the use of the term? Thanks! - Owlmonkey (talk) 23:58, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
