You are wrong in assuming that Càrn Fheusda is a conjectural form of Carnoustie. It is actually recorded in eastern Gaelic dialects. Therefore I have replaced it. -- MacRusgail ( talk) 15:46, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
I reverted your edit about town size. Barrow's quote is accurate and referenced, and in fact your counter-argument (if 3000 is accurate ... no idea where you got that from though) actually backs Barrow's assertion up. Regarding your insertion of an OR tag earlier (which I just noticed)... well, I don't remember if the refs in that section cover it(need to check them out), but it ain't "OR". Deacon of Pndapetzim ( Talk) 14:56, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi Jim, Thanks for the message, no problems. If you are going for GA, I suggest that you look at Raasay, Glasgow, Birmingham, Belfast, as examples. The GA standard as been tightened up, so it might be worth looking looking at UK articles that have recently got GA, such as Geology of Somerset. Relevant Photos will certainly help. Best of look.

I get the smell from some of your edits that you might have a wee interest in medieval Scotland. Am I right? If so, welcome welcome. You might wanna check out Wikipedia:WikiProject Medieval Scotland for a list of other users with this inclination, and for other stuff. There is also, of course, Wikipedia:WikiProject Scotland and the Wikipedia:WikiProject Middle Ages. If you are an entirely new user, then I hope your early experience of wiki has been good. Let me know if there's anything I can help you with. Regards, Deacon of Pndapetzim ( Talk) 18:43, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
I don't have access to quite the number of resources just this minute that I could have, but going through the first two volumes of the regesta regum Scottorum, Carnoustie is unmentioned, though there are a couple of references to a church at Barry being given to Arbroath Abbey. It seems later from Cowan's Parishes of Medieval Scotland to have went to Balmerino, but I only have a photocopy of the appendix and not the rest of the book to look up the original entry (If you can do that, you should). Searching the records of the parliaments of Scotland is always good. There is on the other more stuff about Panbride and Panmure (and of course Monifieth). This area was very intensively settled by English and French in the late 12th century. I can tell you off the top of my head that Panmure was given to the de Valognes, an immigrant family who during the reign of William the Lion supplied him with a chamberlain. I was actually contemplating starting an article about Philip de Valognes, as just the other day I was reading about some documents attributed to him by later medieval bureaucrats.

Sorry, I been busy in real life, but I'm back for a week or so. I've not done a FAC before. This is criteria it has to meet - Wikipedia:Featured article criteria. I'll try and assess it this weekend, but I have no track record on FACs, so the real FAC may be far worst than my comments. You may also wish to consider a Wikipedia:Peer review before you go for the FAC. Pyrotec ( talk) 20:47, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
Hi Catfish Jim and the soapdish, Thanks for the Barnstar that you awarded to me today, it is very much appreciated. Pyrotec ( talk) 16:56, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
You're clearly working on it, so don't see the harm is there is enough material. I changed the name of the page though, from "Danish general" to "folklore"; change that again if you want, it's just that Danish used in that way is misleading as the word here seems to carry the older meaning of "Scandinavian" rather than our "someone from Denmark" meaning.

Anyways, it's good that you're there to press the common sense approach, I have a hard time with WP:IAR. I should have brought this article to FAR myself, since I was aware of the comprehensiveness and NPOV issues; the article will be better for it now. I've added some stuff in the to-do box.

You aren't rude; you don't argue endlessly on unimportant topics; you don't use Wikipedia as a substitute for a social life; you don't bother changing Wikipedia policy to suit your own views. You just carry on adding quality content to Wikipedia on Angus-related material again and again and again. Thanks, Jim. You are the sort of contributor that Wikipedia needs and I want you to be aware that others appreciate your good work. Derek Ross | Talk 17:14, 19 March 2009 (UTC) |

Congratulations on the Battle of Dunnichen GA. I also noticed the splendid new Dunachton article. A question for you - the co-incidence of a possible battle site and a Pictish symbol stone is interesting - it would surely be odd if this was the battle site and they were not connected. Does Woolf say anything about this? My guess is that it is pretty worn away, but there must be something on it. Ben Mac Dui 19:52, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Hey, about the caption for Jaco, I uploaded the black and white photos about a year ago, (guessing).. if you follow it's photo stream in Commons back to the batch that my friend and photographer, Jean-Luc Ourlin provided, the comments below from other photographers mention it being the bass of doom. I don't know, but it's worth looking at. However, I didn't ask Jean-Luc, and he releases a lot of photos here with the CC-BY-SA licenses to Wikipedia when I request them, in part, because he has glaucoma (sp.?) and his sight is now leaving him.

Hi, I declined your A7 deletion request on Ali ‘Fingerz’ Esbai, because it makes reasonable claims of notability. Ladyof Shalott 15:33, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi. I have declined your speedy on this, unpromising though it looked with only blank image references, because there was actually some article text on the talk page, and a search suggested that this is a real person and may be notable enough for an article. So I have moved text to the article, pointed the author to WP:YFA for advice, and invited him to carry on. Regards, JohnCD ( talk) 18:36, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Hello Catfish Jim and the soapdish. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Kamal Abdulsalam, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7.

Thanks for patrolling new pages, Catfish Jim. Just FYI, on Maverick Christmas Company Limited I noticed you didn't leave an edit summary when you tagged the page, and didn't let the page author know.

Hi Catfish Jim, I'm afraid that I can't delete Dustin Robbins under A7 as there does appear to be some claim to notability. Whether that is enough, I cannot say. I would suggest taking this to AFD if you still feel that there is a problem with the article. - Tbsdy (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 05:07, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi Catfish Jim, the artist that I have chosen to write a wikipedia article on is an American Hip-Hop artist living in Dundee. He has nominated for 3 NME awards. As you wanted references for why this wikipedia page should be kept. Here are some links to prove that the rapper Doe Boy has been nominated for 'NME awards [2] [3] video's might not be able to be streamed because the artist might of removed the video's but theres the link. If you have any more problems please feel free to contact me again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Isammostafa ( talk • contribs) 20:59, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
Hello Catfish Jim and the soapdish, thank you for your note about the Kenshiro Abbe article. It does seem that political/organisational factors did make things complex in the subject's later years. I appreciate the help you have offered and the links you have provided, and will include those documents in my research. As an aside, you might be interested to read the article on Gunji Koizumi, which I rewrote in February. Thanks again for your note. Janggeom ( talk) 13:56, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
Hello again, I notice that you have joined WPMA—welcome to the group. I think you have joined at a good time, as there are a few people actively involved at the moment (it had been quiet for some time).

Hey, check out the Jaco Pastorius article. I've got a few other photos in mind, but I think the one next to "Portait of Tracy" is most fitting.-- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 22:09, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
There are 3 kinds of photos hardest to find: decent photos of drummers, people who died young (and a long while ago), and band photos. That being said, I found a bunch of photos in Flickr of Uncle John & Whitelock, but the photographers nearly always want to only photograph the guitarists up front. I have never heard of this band, but am willing to try to obtain the pics. I found these that seemed best: [4], [5], [6], [7], [8] Anyway, you think about them. There really are a LOT of photos of them on Flickr, but it's hard to find a band page, and a couple of those photos listed above are really small altogether. -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 20:48, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
I sent out requests to three people for the photos you requested. One has already responded and I've sent the criteria for changing the copyright to Creative Commons. Just wanted you to know I'm thinking of you!-- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 22:42, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:There Is Nothing Else.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Image Screening Bot ( talk) 13:27, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
That music barnstar is lovely, and very much appreciated. I don't get much credit as a participant or editor in the giant catalouge of articles I work upon, since often my time is consumed with hunting for obscure photos. Thank you so much for thinking of me. I think your article looks nicer, too. The photographer is happy and says to just let him know when you wish for more photos for the page! -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 21:20, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Calmer Waters 14:29, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
The photographer of Jamie Bolland wrote today, saying, "hi just had a thought, I see you have plenty of references etc. but if you need any more there's at least one review of the band here: [10] Also there was a track on one of the isthismusic? cover CDs which could be added to the discography. And... there was an interview of some sort in the magazine - I would have to find the file and upload it onto the website for it to be any use, but it's a possibility if you're wanting to make the wiki page completely comprehensive!"
Just so you know! -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 17:50, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi! It would appear that you are a regular contributor to articles regarding Tayside and Fife. I have proposed the creation of WikiProject Tayside and Fife to improve the quality of all of the articles which fall into the scope of the project. I would hope that you and other contributors would like to indicate their interest in the project. If you would like to join please add your name on WikiProject Council/Proposals/Tayside and Fife. If the project gets a reasonable amount of interest I will create a draft of the WikiProject (after consultation with editors who are interested) in my userspace and then will create the WikiProject. Thank you. Andrewmc 123 14:23, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

What's this last message ? If you want to see the sources, read the talk page. I agree that I did not put the sources on the article page, because I am not sure to put them correctly.

About your last message : you are completely bad faith, like always. Almost all my sources were academical, there were about 20, universities...But they don't match to your desires, so you call them "amateur".

I saw your userpage. What is a Journeyman editor? I don't really talk to too many other editors that much.. mostly 4 people is it. Just wondered, what that, and an editor review are. -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 06:57, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I declined your A7 deletion request on Ali ‘Fingerz’ Esbai, because it makes reasonable claims of notability. Ladyof Shalott 15:33, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi. I have declined your speedy on this, unpromising though it looked with only blank image references, because there was actually some article text on the talk page, and a search suggested that this is a real person and may be notable enough for an article. So I have moved text to the article, pointed the author to WP:YFA for advice, and invited him to carry on. Regards, JohnCD ( talk) 18:36, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Hello Catfish Jim and the soapdish. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Kamal Abdulsalam, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/ Stalk 23:00, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
I've added the 2009 election to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Otago Boys' High School Board of Trustees Student Representative Election, 2008. Would you be willing to offer an opinion about it there? Thanks! Nyttend ( talk) 15:45, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
Whenever I see an article that looks too well written, I run the first few sentences through Google. I usually get a match. Half Shadow 01:16, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi buddy, I've replied to your post on Talk:Javed Kodu. Hamza [ talk ] 09:58, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for patrolling new pages, Catfish Jim. Just FYI, on Maverick Christmas Company Limited I noticed you didn't leave an edit summary when you tagged the page, and didn't let the page author know. You should probably try to. ( WP:TWINKLE or other tools would automate that for ya, of course.) Thanks— Glenfarclas ( talk) 11:31, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
It wasn't meant as an attack article, what are you on about? [1] AJUK Talk!! 20:35, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
Hello Catfish Jim and the soapdish. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Burn After Rolling, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There is sufficient context to identify the subject of the article. Thank you. Nancy talk 18:01, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Nice save. I've just closed the AFD as keep & am going to move the article to sort the capitalisation in the dab. Nancy talk 18:25, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi Catfish Jim, I'm afraid that I can't delete Dustin Robbins under A7 as there does appear to be some claim to notability. Whether that is enough, I cannot say. I would suggest taking this to AFD if you still feel that there is a problem with the article. - Tbsdy (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 05:07, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi Catfish Jim, the artist that I have chosen to write a wikipedia article on is an American Hip-Hop artist living in Dundee. He has nominated for 3 NME awards. As you wanted references for why this wikipedia page should be kept. Here are some links to prove that the rapper Doe Boy has been nominated for 'NME awards [2] [3] video's might not be able to be streamed because the artist might of removed the video's but theres the link. If you have any more problems please feel free to contact me again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Isammostafa ( talk • contribs) 20:59, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
Hello Catfish Jim and the soapdish, thank you for your note about the Kenshiro Abbe article. It does seem that political/organisational factors did make things complex in the subject's later years. I appreciate the help you have offered and the links you have provided, and will include those documents in my research. As an aside, you might be interested to read the article on Gunji Koizumi, which I rewrote in February. Thanks again for your note. Janggeom ( talk) 13:56, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
Hello again, I notice that you have joined WPMA—welcome to the group. I think you have joined at a good time, as there are a few people actively involved at the moment (it had been quiet for some time). Currently, the main drive is reviewing martial arts article stubs and deleting them where appropriate. Janggeom ( talk) 13:01, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for correcting the Otani/Goodbody (1967) reference. Janggeom ( talk) 01:01, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for the link to the article translated by Syd Hoare; a pity he does not include the original reference. Janggeom ( talk) 00:24, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for the link to the article by Elio Lamagna. Janggeom ( talk) 08:06, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
Hey, check out the Jaco Pastorius article. I've got a few other photos in mind, but I think the one next to "Portait of Tracy" is most fitting.-- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 22:09, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
There are 3 kinds of photos hardest to find: decent photos of drummers, people who died young (and a long while ago), and band photos. That being said, I found a bunch of photos in Flickr of Uncle John & Whitelock, but the photographers nearly always want to only photograph the guitarists up front. I have never heard of this band, but am willing to try to obtain the pics. I found these that seemed best: [4], [5], [6], [7], [8] Anyway, you think about them. There really are a LOT of photos of them on Flickr, but it's hard to find a band page, and a couple of those photos listed above are really small altogether. -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 20:48, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
I sent out requests to three people for the photos you requested. One has already responded and I've sent the criteria for changing the copyright to Creative Commons. Just wanted you to know I'm thinking of you!-- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 22:42, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:There Is Nothing Else.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Image Screening Bot ( talk) 13:27, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
That music barnstar is lovely, and very much appreciated. I don't get much credit as a participant or editor in the giant catalouge of articles I work upon, since often my time is consumed with hunting for obscure photos. Thank you so much for thinking of me. I think your article looks nicer, too. The photographer is happy and says to just let him know when you wish for more photos for the page! -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 21:20, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Calmer Waters 14:29, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
The photographer of Jamie Bolland wrote today, saying, "hi just had a thought, I see you have plenty of references etc. but if you need any more there's at least one review of the band here: [10] Also there was a track on one of the isthismusic? cover CDs which could be added to the discography. And... there was an interview of some sort in the magazine - I would have to find the file and upload it onto the website for it to be any use, but it's a possibility if you're wanting to make the wiki page completely comprehensive!"
Just so you know! -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 17:50, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi! It would appear that you are a regular contributor to articles regarding Tayside and Fife. I have proposed the creation of WikiProject Tayside and Fife to improve the quality of all of the articles which fall into the scope of the project. I would hope that you and other contributors would like to indicate their interest in the project. If you would like to join please add your name on WikiProject Council/Proposals/Tayside and Fife. If the project gets a reasonable amount of interest I will create a draft of the WikiProject (after consultation with editors who are interested) in my userspace and then will create the WikiProject. Thank you. Andrewmc 123 14:23, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

About your last message (august) : I have already answered to you :
What's this last message ? If you want to see the sources, read the talk page. I agree that I did not put the sources on the article page, because I am not sure to put them correctly. But I am not a vandal. I could accuse you of vandalism about your last revert, don't forget that my edits are SOURCED. Sleeping water ( talk) 18:37, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
No original researches, BUT EXACTLY QUOTES!!!!! I won't tell it in Russian!! Read the talk page (just one time, please...). And stop accuse me about personal attack, this guy has just put unuseful comments and arrogance, without any constructive aim.

Just wanted to let you know — you warned Wikiwal for creating this as a test page, but it was an accident. As you may have seen, Wikiwal is active at de:wp, and "Benutzer" is the German term equivalent to "User" in English; my userpage at de:wp is de:Benutzer:Nyttend.

About your last message : you are completely bad faith, like always. Almost all my sources were academical, there were about 20, universities...But they don't match to your desires, so you call them "amateur". You persist to call "personnal comment" while I have exactly quoted the source. In fact, you have no argument. You just want to spread your propaganda. But if you want the last word, I let it.

If you want me to assume good faith, do it first, and stop qualifying academical and university sources as "amateur". Or did you have a "personnal agenda" to place this expression ?-- Sleeping water ( talk) 14:14, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
