Hey man, good edit on the hookah page. some of the wording in the part about the illegal drugs was bothering me. hopefully we can find a source. how is israel right now? I would love to come visit sometime. do jewish people smoke hookah much? I pretty much have the same feelings as you about wikipedia—so fun, informative and interesting but in need of a lot of work. I am really hoping to become a much bigger part....as soon as I finish my finals haha. take care. NPPyzixBlan 19:04, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
You think the Israeli-Palestinian conflict doesn't extend to falafel? I envy you your optimism ;)
Welcome to Wikipedia, in any case! Palmiro | Talk 21:44, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
My vote goes for Aleppo, with a second preference for Mezze Jebel (a suburb of Damascus). Unfortunately I don't have any experience of Israeli falafel. Nice one on fixing up the article. Palmiro | Talk 18:20, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
An atheist huh? Guess you still had enough religion to go to another man's country and take it as yours. posted 10:50, 5 November 2005 by 207.255.174.254
Hi there
thanks for your comments, but to be honest I am not in the slightest interested in getting involved in another bad-tempered dispute and will probably withdraw from the English-language Wikipedia entirely once I have done some work on one article I have made a start on and that urgently needs further attention. Good luck with it, and I hope you keep your patience! Palmiro | Talk 11:01, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
You might wish to comment on this at Talk:Shawarma. Basically I agree that shawarma, doner kebab and gyros should be merged but all three are substantial articles, so I'm hoping someone else will do the work! Palmiro | Talk 10:18, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
Are you acquainted with the work of Monty Python's Flying Circus? It looks like here we have an Antichrist for Funny Walks.
Anyway, a lot of his edits look like the problem is with the English and the lack of cited sources rather than the content - in some cases it seems to come down to him giving a Sunni POV on articles that were suffering from severe Shia POV. Not sure what the best way to deal with it is, as I am no expert in theology. I might ask someone else. Palmiro | Talk 14:47, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
You damn humanist athiest!... Hey could you help with the Peer Review of my article on Rapping? Thanks! -- Urthogie 12:58, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
Would you mind if I archived the page there? Go crazy. It's long past the point of diminishing returns (the old expression about wrestling with pigs comes to mind), and leaving the thread just gives him a place to post more nonsense: insulting me is one thing I don't much care about, but insulting my intelligence is quite another and pretty much guaranteed to tick me off.
As it says at the top of my Talk Page, I'm not big on the dishonest, incompetent, and fanatical: combining at least two out of three definitely gets my dander up. -- Calton | Talk 15:13, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Update: I've taken the liberty of creating an archive of all but the very last set of comments. I admit I didn't take the bother of pulling together all of the anon's stuff scattered hither and yon on the page nor did I try to work out which unsigned posting was done by which IP number or at what time. Life's too short.
Also, I finally looked at your User Page and I noticed a falafel reference. In that spirit, here's a movie tangentially about falafel (or as the Australians insist on spelling it, felafel) -->
(Yes, it's real: that's a scan of my copy of the DVD, which I had to send away to Australia for.) -- Calton | Talk 04:05, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
Your egyptology experience could be helpful at Controversy over race of Ancient Egyptians.-- Urthogie 21:33, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Hey Mgreenbe, thanks for the message. I'm afraid I don't have any sources for information on this person -- I just tagged the article as part of clearing a previous copyright violation. Thanks! -- Nick Boalch ?!? 23:32, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
Could you please give your opinion and vote at Talk:Islamist_terrorism#Voting. Islamic terrorism is the more common phrase, and the current counterpart articles are christian terrorism and jewish terrorism.-- Urthogie 18:53, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
Regardless, I'm gonna start putting my weight behind Modulatum's idea, as its the most pragmatic at this point.-- Urthogie 20:20, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
I do think this article could be really expanded. There is no discussion of the meaning and symbolism of Elijah's garb, a topic which has been much discussed. For all of these verses there is quite a bit to say about translation issues. - SimonP 20:47, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Many thanks for your offer. Your virtual lollipop is much appreciated. I am thinking about an article on Mr Whippy vans after other Australian editors comments. Regards-- A Y Arktos 11:18, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
I'm not sure I understood the tone of your "What about them indeed?" comment. I can't work out if you were criticising me for my suggestion of Mr Whippy vans or not. Cnwb 22:29, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your recent edit regarding my note to both the information hiding and separation of concerns articles. I only asked because I just created the interface inheritance stub, and I wanted to make sure that the information I submitted was accurate. Could you please review the stub and let me know what you think? I would really appreciate that. Cheers. Folajimi (talk)
Hi! Am I glad that you left information in interface inheritance on your talk page; I was trying to remember who helped clarify the stub (even though your last reply was posted more than a year ago!) The "What links here" was very helpful in this regard.
A pair of {{ fact}} challenges have been made against the stub; do you know of any good reference material to address the challenges?
Also, in your previous reply, you had mentioned the need for concrete examples; do you know of any reputable sources for such information? --Cheers, Folajimi (leave a note) 13:04, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
I was under the impression that you were to merge Oneiromancy and Dream interpretation? — Nightstallion (?) 09:25, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
Привет! An interesting thing I noticed about Wikipedia is that it helps develop thick skin and not be easily intimidated even if you feel someone is trying to abuse you; I usually just say and do what I feel is appropriate. I have noticed you speak basic Russian. Did you learn it in college?-- Pecher 12:59, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
I don't know exactly where it came from but it's been going around among LSU opponents for a while now seemingly born from an email or chatroom post claiming LSU fans smell like corndogs. Google 'LSU corndog' and you'll probably find it. I find it pretty stupid and hate that some Auburn fans use it or may have even originated it. AUTiger ʃ talk/ work 23:38, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
Took your advice and added brief paragraph to Brown entry. Thanks. GO WHARTON 17:54, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
I'll give your new paragraph mod suggestion a go. Mighty fray of Brunonia, as in the plant? I'd prefer to avoid any sort of tussle in which there's the possibility (however remote) of the involvement of one Martha Stewart. GO WHARTON 18:31, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
Hi! Just wanted to welcome you to WikiProject Computer science. Having seen the contributions you've made so far, I was wondering when you'd officially join :-) Anyway, glad to have you onboard! Looking forward to collaborating with you in the future. -- Allan McInnes ( talk) 20:09, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
Anything like that gives me a break from getting mad about the rash of bigotry currently breaking out in a number of areas (and I'm talking about Wikipedia, not Denmark). Have you read my current favourite? Eurabia:_The_Euro-Arab_Axis. As I remarked to someone else, it's just as well I live in Syria, because if I lived in Europe, I'd be in danger of becoming a dhimmi due to the evil conspiracies being plotted by our governments, who apparently have nothing better to do than work out how to enslave themselves and their citizens... And somebody has now rewritten an entire article on a related matter taking the author of this piece of fantasy as his/her main source... Right, I better shut up about this, coz I'm just getting mad again. Palmiro | Talk 14:17, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the warm welcome, and yes, I've been a bit addicted to RC Patrol recently (what was it, fourteen hours straight yesterday?). Anyway, in honor of your gratitude, I was inspired to sit down and write the Pork (instant messenger) stub, which would have never been done since I would still be on RC patrol. Coincidentally, I just had a pork dinner last night; it was fantastic. Anyway, thanks again, and happy Sunday! ~ PseudoSudo 18:37, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your welcome and helpful links. Very new to this. Did you notice (or know) that we both hail from Ithaca? Lived there all my life, and was born there in '88. I lived with a jewish family all last year, ate falafels constantly, and we were all naturally liberal (its Ithaca!- what else could i be?). In my book Gimme Coffee is the place to be. Again, thanks for the welcome. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Hellycopper ( talk • contribs) 04:34, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for catching my inane mistakes! I'm living in the past. Nice cleanup on Yorkshire pudding, too. Why not make an account and stay a while? -- Mgreenbe 13:22, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
I take your point about links being important. However, some of the meterial was too detailed to be appearing in the open paragraphs (eg, .exe and .com). Some of the other material was just plain wrong (or very product specific). For instance, I have been in the compiler/tranlator/static analysis business for 26 years and have never heard of a transpiler (it seems to be a trademark of this company www.sector7.com/OPENVMS%20MIGRATION/VX%20Tools) or a cascader.
The object code stuff is covered later on and is just too much information at this point.
What a weird way to communicate (derekATknosofDTcoDTuk)
Mr/Ms greenbe Pleased to have discussion with you about 666_numerlogy "First Interpretation" which reflects my opinion after lot of studies for many years now (same as other participations including yours). I respect other people with different opinions and even opposed participations with fully open mind, also I know that "wikipedia" is an open environment which can hold all opinions from all people without any hostility or bad feelings among them and from that point of view I would like to know your objection(s) on my participation and who give you the right to clean it? I hope your answers to be objective keeping in mind that no one can ever monopolize the whole truth alone.
Point taken. My source is [2], but honestly I am not sure if it is sufficiently authorative... Bertilvidet 14:59, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
Was it not an obvious piss-take? The idea of the "traditional Irish doner kebab" struck me as so ludicrous I couldn't let it pass. (I seem to like that word too much, ludicrous. Though maybe that's just the effect of Wikipedia.) Palmiro | Talk 17:54, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Hello, Mgreenbe. An automated process has found and removed an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, and thus is being used under fair use that was in your userspace.
