Your correction to my comment on Talk:English language was proper. I meant to say what you corrected my statement to say. However, editing other users' comments is generally considered poor etiquette. In the future it might be better to send a message to the author to point the error out, and let the author correct it. In this situation, though, I didn't mind the correction, but next time you might not be so lucky! :) — Fastolfe00 18:55, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
I see you have blanked the "See also" section in the Vorarephilia article. The link contained in this section and the subject are related, and this relationship is clearly outlined in the first source. Therefore blanking this section is not appropriate. Please do not do so again. If you wish to discuss the subject further (and I would encourage you to do so if you still feel it's important), then please do so in the article's talk page.

No but if it happens again, i'll submit. I'm tired, Gwern has not seen a single edit of mind unless it involves Neon Genesis Evangelion.

In particular for the ongoing discussion on Star Trek into Darkness regarding a pesky little I. At the end of the day, it may not have been resolved but we all did work together to try and get it sorted, even if we did feel at times we were banging our heads on our desks and calling our computer screens idiots. MisterShiney ✉ 14:34, 10 January 2013 (UTC) |
CSD#A7 doesn't allow for the deletion of articles that don't show notability, but those that make no claim of importance or significance. Being knighted is an indication of significance. Being Minister of Finance of the Western Region is an assertion of significance, I think. Being awarded the Brilliant Star of Zanzibar, First Class is probably a claim of significance. And so on. As an additional note, you shouldn't renominate articles for speedy deletion that've been declined by an admin, even if they meet the criteria - except perhaps G12. Repeatedly nominating something for speedy deletion is generally taken to be disruptive. If it's declined but you still think it should be deleted, go to AfD. (Or possibly, try PROD?)

Hello! re: [1]
People are often rather confused (and sometimes feel hurt) if you remove their comments from a discussion. Sometimes you can help by moving the comment somewhere more useful, but that's about the limit of it.
Keeping the wiki tidy is important, but people are important too, so remember to be nice!

Hi. As you're one of those folks who contributed to the work title capitalization rules discussion over at WT:MoS but then seemed to tune out (and therefore – as opposed to the "MoS regulars" – probably didn't follow it any further), I just briefly wanted to point you towards my latest post there (beginning with "As there has been little progress"), which might well be the last overall: I'm phasing out, and since there hasn't been much input by other users lately, it's likely that over the next few days, the thread'll die (i.e., disappear into the archives) without there having been made any changes to the MoS. So I'd be much obliged if you took the time to stake your support for or opposition to my proposal (should I also have put an RfC tag there?) and – unless it's accepted (I'm not holding my breath...) – maybe even considered keeping the debate going.

Hi, I've just seen this. My view was that the lack of response at ANI just implied that nobody thought it worth taking up, and I was letting it rest on that basis. Was there anyting I should have done but didn't? Cheers, -- Stfg ( talk) 14:30, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
I have opened a new RFC at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style § RFC: Proposed amendment to MOS:COMMA regarding geographical references and dates for further discussion (because we need more of that). — sroc 💬 08:23, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
Hi, Please consider restoring in the Chelsea lead the sentence, "While in the Army, Manning was known as Bradley and diagnosed with gender identity disorder." [4] instead of having the two sentences currently there, "Throughout her early life and Army career, Manning was known as Bradley. While she was in the Army, she was diagnosed with gender identity disorder." [5] -- Bob K31416 ( talk) 10:38, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
