I've already spoken with others about contributing to the Vanuatu entry and have their blessing. See below:
Our mission is to work with Vanuatu communities and health care organizers to improve education, awareness, infrastructure, and medical supply availability in areas that lack health resources. Our ultimate goals are to improve the living conditions of communities in Vanuatu, to foster positive international relations and cultural exchange between volunteers and the people of Vanuatu, and to communicate the living conditions in Vanuatu to Americans.

Dear Kristie, The question is not whether I like your website, nor whether your organization is useful for mankind. The question is whether your link has its place within an encyclopaedic presentation of the country "Vanuatu". Does it provide information, facts, knowledge about the history, geography, culture, politics, society of Vanuatu? Not really. It just happens to be related to Vanuatu in some way or another, just like 76 million other pages on the web [1]; are we going to add 76 million links to the bottom of wikipedia's "Vanuatu" page? The fact that you are a "useful" organization (which I don't deny) is not a sufficient reason for making an exception to the principle that we are writing a knowledge encyclopaedia (see what WP is not); otherwise how many links are we going to add to the Africa page??

Howdy! Whilst browsing through Special:Newpages for potential articles to feature as part of the Did you know? section of the Main Page, I ran across the article Brangaine, which you created. You can see the proposed blurb at Template talk:Did you know under the date heading corresponding to the creation of the article. I'm adding this notice here for two reasons: Firstly, if you feel the blurb I wrote is inaccurate or misrepresents the subject, feel free to propose a correction below it, or add a note to my talk page. Secondly, barring a large backlog or a significant problem cropping up with regards to the article, you should expect to see it on the Main Page within a week, so if you wish to add some polish to it before getting a sizable influx of eyeballs looking it over, you'll need to do so fairly soon.

Regarding your edits to Uther Pendragon and remarks on its Talk page, what books/sources (excluding actual stuff like Malory and Chretien) are reliable and what aren't? I suspect many about the "real" Arthur belong to the latter. Uthanc 13:16, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
I see your point about the rumors section being well documented. Upon reading it again it seems to have little to do with rumors but more to do with allegations, which seems like a more appropriate topic for Wikipedia as an encyclopedia.

Good job in refining/improving my work on Namus (disambiguation). From your contributions list, it look like you are using a tool to clean up articles.

Hey! Nice work. Would you have any ideas on expanding Togail Bruidne Da Derga? I've still never had time to read it, so the plot synopsis is a bit lacking. Happy New Year! Angus McLellan (Talk) 00:12, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Just wondering about your rationale for the redirect of this article -- not that I mind particularly but since the three men are not mentioned anywhere in the Welsh Triads article, now anyone searching on Three Generous Men of Britain won't learn anything other than that it's a Welsh Triad (which there's a good chance they knew already). I thought that when redirecting an article it was usual to ensure that the article's information, or at least a summary of it, was included in the new target page so that it wasn't lost? -- Bookgrrl 23:31, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Cuchullain. I am WikieWikieWikie, or Tommy. With a point to push on the article on the Viking king Canute the Great. Basically, although the consensus is maybe Cnut was born ca.995, it is a consensus which is by no means foolproof. In, Cnut: England's Viking King, M.K.Lawson, the writer most learned on the sources which regard the reign of Cnut, Cnut's age is explicitly left as, unkown, or ???. It is a point which is quite significant in the story of a man who's age is maybe ten years off, when it is told he was born in 995.
Unknowns permeate this period, and the desire to plant such a fact on the general reader is not good scholarship in my opinion. Afterall, the age issue, I believe, arises with a misinterpretation of the Knutsdrapa, Ottar the Black's, skaldic verse, which is easily misunderstood, and the faith in the book on the reign of Cnut written nearly a century ago, which fully subscribes to the derogatory wave story to boot.
I really think it is necessary to put in the information as unknown, or at least leave it completely unsaid, which maybe is just as bad scholarship, with the circumstances in consideration, being the presentation of truths, as facts which don't appear anywhere other than in the minds of scholars insistant on the presentation of fictions, as truths.
I read your interests, which I share with you almost exactly, while my main focus is a little more centred on the British Isles (as well as Ireland), and the role of England, and the Eurpeans at large, in the world. I am particularly interested in Cnut though, whom I intend to write a book on myself oneday, when I have read more fully into the sources. Maybe you can help me with the Knutsdrapa, if it is enough of a piece of medieval literature. Is it really plausible that the poem which praises and warrior hero, and the battles he fought in the English conquest, suggests, his age was 20, rather than the more likely, 30 (the legend of Cuchulainn is known to me, although I think it unlikely even such a hero was able to fight warriors in their prime, as a teenager)?

Then why you keep cutting my contrib to Gog and Magog in Islam )?
You just reverted my whole work I worked on for several weeks??
let me know please. I did not violate the 3 rule. I reverted someone who all what he she did is reverting back to earlier article without adding nothing just getting rid of my work, he reverted to some body;s else reverting of my earlier work. so where did I go wrong if I return my contrib?
Please explain. I am outraged and I am about to complain to administrators. This should stop. You can see that I never cut anything but just added referenced materials to the best of my knowledge .

Hello, recently I did some very minor work on The Satanic Verses the fictional novel by Salman Rushdie and tagged the talk page with the Wiki Novels Project template and you took it off by saying it was misplaced. I now see it was and wasn't misplaced. The talk page for The Satanic Verses the novel has been redirected to the talk page for Satanic Verses the expression. I'm not sure why, nor do I know enough to try and split up the talk page so both articles can have there own. It looks like most of the talk page belongs to the novel but I could be wrong any chance you want to fix it? I'm going to go post this on the talk page too so hopefully someone will change it.

Hi. This sentence was about the usage of term norteamericano in Spanish. And, in informal Spanish usually norteamericano means "from United States", but the term América del Norte is not the same as North America's English, because it includes USA, Canada and Mexico, while América Central conflates the Isthmus and Caribe and a little beat of southern Mexico (Yucatan and Chiapas). Sometimes, América del Norte can be too the whole landmass from Alaska to Panama (as in English).

Have you considered adminship? I've run across you a couple of times and you seem fairly reasonable and knowlegeable. I don't know if the idea interests you at all; it definitely cuts into the time you have to write articles. I think you would make a good candidate though and there are a heck of alot of backlogs that need good admins to look at them right now.-- Isotope23 21:00, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
Okay, but got your message too late. Still have no "move" option, and believe me there's a whole lot more that needs moving, as many of the names are incorrect due to the reliance of non Welsh speakers on English translations which used outdated orphography. In the case of "Bran the Blessed" his correct name is Bendigeidfran (from MW Bendigeitvran), he is never called "Bran". Sanddef 06:53, 3 February 2007 (UTC)Sanddef
Sorry but Id already created Euroswydd so I couldnt move it, hence the Copy and Paste. As for the spelling, it's the double "S" that's incorrect, not (that Im aware of) the double "D". I think it would be far more easier to add a section on orphography to all of the characters from Welsh mythology to clarify the confusion between Middle Welsh spelling and Modern Welsh spelling. Being a Modern Welsh speaker myself, Im obviously inclined to the modern orphography. Sanddef 16:19, 6 February 2007 (UTC)Sanddef
OK Im back home now where Ive got a Modern Welsh copy of the Mabinogion: Euroswydd (with two "d"s) is fine. Anyway, I'll start adding bits in an orphography section as regards Modern Welsh spelling. Obviously I could look up the various Middle Welsh spellings as well (they form part of my Uni course, to a certain extent) but Id rather not have to take that on right now as I already have an academic workload on top of which Im contributing to the Welsh Wicipedia. Anyway, I think adding an orphography section will be the best solution all in all. I'll start with Bran to give a prototype example (assuming no one else has already done so today!)

Good afternoon ( GMT time); I'd just like to ensure that you don't hold a grudge against me for taking a neutral stance in your RfA (link above) for the reasons listed there. I feel that my justification shows that you don't have a real need for the tools at this time.
I hope that you bear no bad blood against me - I certainly didn't oppose you personally, but rather was of the opinion that your contributions didn't demonstrate a need for sysopship.
Please do feel free to drop by my talk page at any time if you've got any questions about my decision, any advice for me or just a chat.

I have responded to your MedCab case regarding Mi'kmaq language. If you are still interested, I believe that the editorial differences regarding this topic can be resolved at Talk:Mi'kmaq language. Your contribution would be appreciated. Thanks! Serpent's Choice 04:00, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
Looks good, I'm going to list it. Cheers!-- Isotope23 16:54, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Good afternoon ( GMT time); I'd just like to ensure that you don't hold a grudge against me for taking a neutral stance in your RfA (link above) for the reasons listed there. I feel that my justification shows that you don't have a real need for the tools at this time.
I hope that you bear no bad blood against me - I certainly didn't oppose you personally, but rather was of the opinion that your contributions didn't demonstrate a need for sysopship.
Please do feel free to drop by my talk page at any time if you've got any questions about my decision, any advice for me or just a chat.
Yours,

I meant that the O Fortuna of Camina Burana is usually attributed as "Excalibur" because it was used as the theme for the motion picture. Please do a revert. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Awesimo ( talk • contribs) 00:54, 14 February 2007 (UTC).

I am wondering how adding two details about the Excalibur comic and linking them to Wiki entries is overlinking.

That nonsense doesn't need to be propagated, at least not in its own section What does that mean? -- Ephilei 22:28, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm afraid I'm a bit confused. How does one cite phonetic similarity? -- Reverend Loki 22:11, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
You may want to look at the current version of the article and consider revising your opinion since the current version has multiple reliable sources including a note about a notable award the community has recieved. Thanks JoshuaZ 02:28, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
It has been suggested that the above named project be renamed Wikipedia:WikiProject Christian saints. Please express your opinion on this proposed renaming, and the accompanying re-definition of the scope of the project, here. John Carter 17:05, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
You're probably right, but I'm not sure merely saying you're misbehaving is going to be very productive either - as far as I can see, the only thing to do is continue to assume he's acting in good faith and just really doesn't see what's happening and respond in kind. At least, as long as he's not a clear-cut vandal. WilyD 18:39, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
You might want to change t and c, to talk and contribs respectively. Thanks. (Just for newbies). - Patricknoddy TALK (reply here)| HISTORY 19:50, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Dear, please don't make changes now as I am against Dab's deletions. This may hide your changes repeatedly. Once the issue is resolved then make changes. WIN 11:36, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
