The anon IP has been given a one week break from editing. I'm wondering if his real grief is with Pediapress, and that's his problem. Did you see the pdf of the Solar System article he contributed to? On the other hand, the pdf of the Middle Ages book doesn't mention Wikipedia. Doug Weller (talk) 13:32, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi Old Moonraker. For the past two years, Wikipedia readers interested in Toby Stephens have been able to gain insight and information about Mr Stephen's work with the RSC in the role of Hamlet. About 70 of them have done so - not a great deal but enough to justify having the link. Now, thanks to your edit, new readers will be unable to gain that insight. Thank you for taking the time to prevent people understanding what Toby's production was about. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.12.99.195 (talk • contribs)
I have nominated Filiquarian Publishing LLC, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Filiquarian Publishing LLC. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? SarekOfVulcan (talk) 14:58, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi! i wouldn't strenuously object to adding "sic" back (i don't think linking it makes sense, i.e. "linking all words is silly" :-) )... but using it does seem to imply (rightly or wrongly) to most people that it was an error preserved in the transcription. I also doubt that you'll see a flood of "corrections"... look at, for example, Serjeant-at-Arms, where there's no "move war". Another solution might be to explicitly link "Serjeant" to Sergeant, like [[Sergeant|Serjeant]] which implies that it's meant to be spelled that way. Another point to consider is that a Chaucer quote won't have sic on it, on the other hand, i don't know how relevant that is. I don't know... like i said, i'm not going to get upset if you revert. Cheers! --Storkk (talk) 10:48, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for your advice. Wikilinking dates is now optional, and though I won't go through and remove all wikilinking, when i change a date to the correct format, I'll remove the brackets. Most of our users don't have accounts and date preferences, so the effect of wikilinking dates has been to confuse readers, while hiding inconsistencies from the editors. You'll be seeing an increasing number of articles being botted to remove wikilinks. See the talk page at WP:DATE for current discussion. --Pete (talk) 22:14, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
No problem :-) Just trying to help stop vandalism :D Yamakiri TC § 07-26-2008 • 04:48:11
Since you've contributed quite a bit to the list, you may be interested in joining the discussion. Thanks. Afasmit (talk) 02:59, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Glad to help. Are you going to report that vandal to AIV? --Meldshal [Chat] 17:48, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Image:Minories stationLBR.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:Minories stationLBR.jpg|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Sdrtirs (talk) 03:57, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for fixing the typos! This is actually my first real effort for Wikipedia; actually, it started because I did a Sebastian Shaw featured article nomination at Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wikipedia, and figured I'd bring it on over here. I'm still pretty new to this, but I put this up for a peer review to see if it might be worth of a good or featured nomination. Maybe you wouldn't mind reviewing it once it gets added to the peer review page? -- Hunter Kahn (talk) 06:29, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
As you are a major contributor to this article, I wanted to make certain that you were aware of its GA Sweeps review, which can be found here. --Malleus Fatuorum (talk) 18:01, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi...I noticed you put a note on the metallurgy article referring to a link that goes to a sub-section. There is already redirect for ductile-brittle transition temperature which points to the ductility article. You may want to change the link to that. Just FYI. --Wizard191 (talk) 11:56, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
I checked on and it states that the plural for "pharaoh" is "pharaohs", not "pharaoahs", which would justify a change in Resin#Derivatives. The same plural "pharaohs" is used on Pharaoh. Ferred (talk) 19:14, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your work on Wikipedia. Your work improving articles and adding references is much appreciated. J.T Pearson (talk) 18:49, 21 August 2008 (UTC) |
The word unexpected is me attempting to improve the intro through content from the spanish version. Feel free to reword/eliminate as necessary. Geoff Plourde (talk) 16:45, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
Name of people are not subject to translation. ex: Old Moonraker is "Old Moonraker" in every language.
p.s. "J" does not exist in Latina language. (Il link da te fornito spiega proprio questo.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aid85 (talk • contribs) 14:25, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
