Thanks
New page to write on. Thanks for all your support on getting Vancouver to featured status. Mkdw and I are really trying to get it done. Lets hope it works! Lily Towerstalk 05:42, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
When you get the list of what projects need tagged and with what let me know. I can get most projects done in under 72 hours. Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 02:04, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
selmo, it's User:Mr. Garrison, the South Park families page is part of a new scheme of character pages. A final design of listings. First, we abolish South Park adults/children and be more specific. I propose a page for south park elementary teachers and another for the students, another for other residents of south park and an occasional characters page. At the moment I'm just copying a pasting stuff but I'm working on it. Please help me change some of the stuff and I couldn't think of an appropriate name for the page so temporairily called it South Park families. Anyway, please reply,

Hello Selmo, I just edited your monobook.js to replace the coding from the PR script with {{js}}. This allows for me to keep track of who is using the PR script and to let you use the most recently updated revision of the script (well, at least since the last WP:BYC). Thanks, AZ t 02:49, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
You posted the revise invitation at User:Bormalagurski's talk page; sadly, Bormalagurski is serving his long-term block, so he I suggest putting him under "inactive" (but does it really count - he's prevented from being active?). --PaxEquilibrium 15:18, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
Selmo, I'm quite flattered, but with a recent block and other administrative actions against me, plus the fact that I only give an edit summary half the time, it wouldn't fly even if I wanted the responsibility! Thank you anyway! -THB 20:58, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
I've never been part of a mediation before, so - if I can ask - how do you see your role in this dispute? At the moment, it would appear that you are standing back and letting us fight it out as before... Yonmei 01:27, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your comment on my Talk page. I thought that we had taken the case to WP:MEDCOM, actually: are you giving it up?Yonmei 08:32, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
I'm not entirely sure to handle this. His comments are completely irrelevent to the point of an encyclopedia and this article. I admit he has some good points, but some incredibly short sighted ones that mainly have to do with a self motivated goal of making the article 'more interesting' for himself rather than focusing on the true point of the article.

You recently wrote on my talk page: "It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Borders Group. Please be careful not to remove content from Wikipedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Take a look at our welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me"
Before my edit, the Borders Group page was in both the Category:1971 establishments and Category:Companies established in 1971 (a direct subcategory of the former category). After my edit the Borders page was only in the Category:Companies established in 1971.
Generally, articles should not be placed in a cat and the cat's parent cat (I see no good reason to make an exception here). The reason for this is to reduce category clutter which helps readers find what they're looking for.
I am concerned that your VandalProof tool is not well configured. If you compare the message on my talk page with the facts:
I appreciate that you are trying to deal with the problem of vandalism and I understand why you have constructed the talk page message the way you have. However, please consider that that for editors who are not vandals, did use the edit summary and are not total newbies the above message is rather patronising. I suggest that you need to make the tool more discriminating (well established editors are not likely to be vandals) and work on the user notification. Greenshed 21:58, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi,
If you can explain why the particular jokes the Daily Show chose to make are pertinent to the topic, feel free to add them back to the article. Valid reasons might include:
The jokes fit none of these. I'm a fan of the show and I've met Jon, so I hate when people ascribe it so much importance. Noting what Jon Stewart said about a topic, in and of itself, is no more acceptable than filling every celebrity's article with all the jokes Leno or Letterman have made about them.
And no, removing content that shouldn't be in an article is not vandalism. Please don't throw words like that around without due cause. --88.111.41.106 01:45, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for the award. It means a lot to me. Though I feel that I have played only a small part in a very large team effort at the WikiProject Vancouver. Mkdwtalk 06:39, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Hey... I am from Vancouver too ;)
I just noticed your editor review notice. (It's from six days ago, ah) I'll do that sometimes tomorrow. AQu01rius (User • Talk) 05:55, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
I have mediated some cases before. I would like to help on the one realting to homophobia. WikieZach| talk 01:22, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Will you contact all parties to see if they all will accept an medcom case? WikieZach| talk 02:55, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

I wrote a message on the WikiProject page before leaving this comment. Since then I've decided that I'll leave the portal and its organization up to you. I see now that it meant a lot to you and I was wrong for editing it. I was hoping we could have had this conversation before you made all those changes and unfriendly actions/comments, but that's in hindsight now. Good luck with the portal and the WikiProject. Mkdwtalk 05:54, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Will do. I'm adding one right now to me replying on your talk page.
Hi Selmo - you recently edited my Jay Adams update. That was my first time posting and I'm not sure why you removed it. I assume that posting to this page is ok. Regardless, my final edit was accurate and made the former posting current; I even listed two sources. What is the correct procedure to post? Why did you take my posting down?
No problem....thanks for responding. Can my edit stand then? Can you fix it, or should I repost?
Thanks
I was asked by admin Irpen to move my comments. Please do not edit my comments for me. Thank you.
