I noticed your recent changes to this article: are you quite sure that it is so specific, for its professional and localised use, as edited by you...? I don't know about it myself, but prima facie both aspects would seem very unlikely to be so specific, to me... Nortonius ( talk) 16:25, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
User:Raul654 full protected many pages on the topic because he disliked dealing with a banned user who continually created sockpuppets to mess with the articles. It was discussed, and a consensus appeared to emerge that this was a disproportionate response. Several editors suggested semi-protection instead, so I move them down from full protection. See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:Raul654 and indefinite full protection of 10 global warming related pages.
I can't explain why you can't edit it though. It's set on semi-protect, and you're hardly a new user. Cool Hand Luke 17:43, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
I don't care. I've about had it to here with my tolerance of people who are in essence, talkers, who do not contribute substantially to the editing and writing of articles, and whose sole purpose is wikilawyering the rest of us, who DO write substantial articles, to death. Whats really dispiriting is that not that some people have gotten a little bit mean, but that people are defending and protecting someone whose sole purpose is to wreck other peoples contributions because they presume, wrongly, that the other editor is working in "good faith".

Hi. I started a RfD discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2008 June 11; you may want to weigh in there. Deor ( talk) 16:45, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
I see that you've added this tag. I was wondering why, nut did not find any explanation as to what you consider NPOV on this list. It might be a good idea to start a section on the talk page stating your objection. Tomeasy talk 22:07, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
Hi - would you like to give me some background to this case? Regards SilkTork * YES! 02:04, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
Silk, I'm getting disgusted by this mediation discussion. If Wikipedia is going to allow the changing of definitions and meanings, then I can understand how some feel that Wikipedia lacks credibility. If there are no immovable standards, then there is no comparison. If the EU is listed, then the UN should as well as the Middle East and other country groups. --

yes, I promise to do my best. Also I contacted one of the ips and left the message with instructions if they really want to help. User talk:202.128.34.205. -- Geographyfanatic ( talk) 18:01, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

I placed a chart and an explanation on the gdp talk page. I believe it is a fair solution. Take a look and tell us what you think. Talk:List of countries by GDP (nominal) -- Geographyfanatic ( talk) 17:59, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for taking on the mediation. I'm disappointed with the outcome. I'm also done arguing the point. The inertia is obviously too great, like reducing the size of the US tax code. Later. -- THE FOUNDERS INTENT TALK 19:00, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
The Mediation discussion regarding the inclusion of the EU in List of countries by GDP (nominal) has come to a conclusion with the following result:
Unless there are significant disagreements within the next 48 hours I will be closing the Mediation. Any questions, please get in touch. Regards SilkTork * YES! 10:42, 21 June 2008 (UTC) =
Hi. I'm afraid the Portal:Contents/Portals page is only for listing fully-completed portals, so I've had to remove Portal:Montana until it is ready. However, please add it to Wikipedia:Portal/Directory if you haven't already (that page is for listing all portals, regardless of state). Thanks :) -- Quiddity ( talk) 18:07, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
As a beer connoisseur, have you ever tried Samichlaus (Schloss Eggenberg) Bier? Lperez2029 ( talk) 21:03, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
No offence, but you've been here long enough to know that you shouldn't leave an article in that state. There's no point blaming me - rather, you should be thanking me for not deleting the article. Deb ( talk) 11:34, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
