I will AfD it, but before I do, I would appreciate it if you pre-told me your vote and rationale, so we could try avoiding AfD. My position is, essentially, that chapters of fraternities, along with all other single-college student groups, are inherently NN. - CrazyRussian talk/ contribs/ email 18:11, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
I'd have to say yes. Trying to follow through with consensus has made most of us look foolish and is becoming a public mockery; it's embarassing that it's come to this, especially now since the page is just a blank that doesn't want to redirect anymore. This is the kind of stigma that falls on a lot of DBZ-type articles, and I'm ashamed to have been aparty of it. Still, I want to follow through with proper Wikiquette and procedures, humiiating as it's turned out to be.
I apologize for bringing you into it and dragging you down along with me. I'm very sorry. Voice of Treason 20:11, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
File:Motherussia.jpg | Hello Isopropyl, and thank you for your support at my request for adminship, which ended with an awe-inspiring 86/1/2 result. I plan to do much with my shiny new tools - but I'll start slow and learn the ropes at first. Please deluge me with assignments and requests - I enjoy helping out. For Mother Russia!! - raise a glass of C2 H5 OH! - CrazyRussian talk/ contribs/ email 05:37, 13 June 2006 (UTC) |
These are different things and as such I think it isn't a good idea to merge. A Quiz league isn't a type of pub quiz, a lot of people do both, but they are quite distinct. Happy to discuss. Jw6aa 09:31, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
I made a brief reply to your reference desk query- hope it helps! EVOCATIVEINTRIGUE TALKTOME | EMAILME | IMPROVEME 13:20, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
No problem - hope my comments were some help! Grutness... wha? 01:21, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the note. I was somewhat concerned about that, but the reverts haven't been simple back-and-forth of two versions. In the last revert, I re-added the counterpoint section, but also restored another section to a version that had been sourced via the ref tag. In any case, I'm going to give it a rest and let others chime in for awhile. OhNoitsJamie Talk 02:10, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
Hey, I wasn't refering to you when I mentioned "repeating myself;" I was referring to the editors who keep reverting back to old versions with little regard for points or suggestions made in the discussion. OhNoitsJamie Talk 00:26, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
I just noticed that you reverted vandalism on my user page. Thanks a lot. Cheers! -- Porqin 19:25, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for your welcoming. -- Tiglet 21:22, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi- I've been trying to develop a fair, consistent way to deal with alternative spellings to help ease the Wikipedia Spelling Wars problem. (See end of this section: Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style#How_to_treat_spelling_conflicts_in_the_lead_paragraph.) In an article that has a word with various spellings and another word, my "or color..." solution might not be needed, but, we have to apply the same criteria to all articles, and try removing "or colour charge" from the "color charge" article and count the seconds until someone reverts you. I suggest we leave the "or" bit in all these articles.-- Cultural Freedom 2006-07-16 08:59 (UTC)
Yay, thanks for doing that merge! Really fast, too. :) -- Galaxiaad 01:55, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
An article you helped edit is being proposed for deletion. PT ( s-s-s-s) 18:51, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Template:LaTeX has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you. -- ais523 17:24, 4 August 2006 ( U T C)
Yeah, I added the expand tag because this was suggested in the Wikipedia:Requests_for_expansion. Although that page suggests adding it to the talk page, and I added it to the article. -- Xyzzyplugh 15:06, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
Hmm, I've reread Wikipedia:Requests_for_expansion, and interestingly (to me), the top of the page seems to be suggesting using stub for short articles and expansion for long articles. However, "How to add a new listing" and the areas below that simply advise adding expansion. Perhaps a policy change didn't make its way to all parts of the page. -- Xyzzyplugh 15:11, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
What you cited was the rationale for not re-blocking as pointed out by me on AN/I. Perhaps that may change your mind. - CrazyRussian talk/ email 16:02, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello. Your response here will be appreciated. Thanks. - CrazyRussian talk/ email 16:32, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
The image of Aria Giovanni that was part of the Cleavage article that you justifiably rejected for GA status has been deleted. I'm not sure where to begin looking so I thought I'd ask for your help. Fair use concerns were discussed considerably before including this pic. Thanks. Ghosts&empties 17:56, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert a single page more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. Quill E. Coyote 06:51, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Okay, I'm not going to get into an edit war with you, but the edits you are making just don't make any sense. The genre has been that way for a long time, and people have agreed on it. You specify that the genre should be in all lower-case (which looks rediculous for one, and I haven't seen that on any other wikipedia page for second), you then point me to the genre page, in the genre pages, it capitalizes the genres, and I quote, "Pop punk," "Alternative rock," , and "Emo," Also, these pages are freely edited, so that does not make it the official capitalization of the genre either. So please explain your actions, instead of getting into edit wars with other editors. Thanks. -- Die Hard 2k5 17:57, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
User:Darrener left you a comment at the help desk ( [1]); I suggested s/he use your talk page, but they haven't done so yet. Ziggurat 03:13, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Several users have expressed concern over my block nomination of several college a cappella groups. I would like to apologize for causing a medium-sized ruckus on the AFD page and thereby wasting the time of several excellent contributors. I see now that this was an ill choice for a block nomination. I'll be relisting most of the articles individually as soon as I can double check the list. Again, please accept my apologies. savidan (talk) (e@) 17:08, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
