I truly apologize for your loss and my ignorance of such a tragic loss to you, and I sincerely offer my sympathies and condolences. My intention of such use of the word was not to compare you to a terrorist; however, it has unfortunately construed in such a manner, which is understandable, and therefore have retracted my comments in the light of such unfortunate repercussions. Although you may have indicated that you may not accept my apology, I do wish to say sorry for hurting your feelings with a stray comments and at the heat of the moment and I do hope that you accept this apology as a misstep and misunderstanding on my part. I know you wish to pursue an avenue to censure me for such an inappropriate and impersonal comment, and I will dutifully accept such a measure and dutifully accept any consequences due to my misbehavior.

You asked in a deletion review where desysopping should be discussed, after someone else pointed out that deletion review is not the right place. Here are my thoughts:
First, it is always best to try to have a civil conversation with another user that you are disagreeing with. In my mind, one of the benefits of really working to follow Wikipedia:Assume good faith is that I sometimes can step back and see someway in which they may have been trying to improve Wikipedia.
If that fails, further processes for dispute resolution are described at Wikipedia:Resolving disputes. In an admin conduct dispute, the next avenues might be a request at WP:AN/I or a user conduct based request for comment at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User conduct.

Brian, I just noticed that you have never added your name to the list of WPND participants. I would encourage you to list yourself so we can know just who is a part of the project. Have a nice day! -- Matth e wUND( talk) 07:50, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

I don't care for vandalism, but he just left a message anonomously which while is funny and doesn't much matter to me.

I am providing this notice because you recently (Closed January 1, 2007) provided an opinion concerning keep/delete or other comments relating to the AfD for the article 123 Pleasant Street. This AfD had an announced result of a consensus to "Keep." A User or Users dissatisfied with this outcome have intitated a process other than the public AfD to overturn this result. The article is presently once again listed on a AfD discussion. To assure that your original comments and opinions are considered you should immediately again expression them in the Current AfD
I am providing this notice after consulting with the Admin closing the AfD. Edivorce 14:53, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
You might find it useful to realize a few Wikipedia policies. First of all, we don't allow uncited info. Tons of uncited info in the article means it either finds citations right quick, or th uncited info gets cut. Period. If you have any sort of issue with this, you might want to ask a few questions, rather than calling a good faith editor a vandal. It is a failure of AGF/ Consider this a friendly reminder. :) If you aren't prepared to roll up your sleeves and do the work, don't get pissy when someone removes the unfinished work.

News The Grand Forks article is a great example to follow when working on other city articles, particularly those about North Dakota cities. We would be very well off if our other major city articles were similar to the Grand Forks article. Keep the Grand Forks article bookmarked and refer to its structure and style when you work on similar articles. ---New assessment parameter--- The importance of each article is gauged as either Top, High, Mid, or Low. Since "importance" is a rather subjective term, some WPND members are trying to come up with a general set of guidelines. Check out this thread on the WPND talk page to see proposals and to share your own opinions of what is and isn't "important" in the state. | |

News WPND member NDCompuGeek has constructed the initial framework for the portal and it should now be easy to update the portal on a month-by-month basis. The portal will serve as a kind of "front door" for people using Wikipedia to learn more about North Dakota. It is a great starting point for branching out into the many aspects of the state. Each month a different article, picture, city, and biography will be showcased along with current news and happenings from around the state. The July version of the portal showcases the Mandan tribe, Governor John Hoeven, and the capital city of Bismarck. Visit the portal's talk page to share your opinions and ideas regarding the portal. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
