Thank you for your message. With all due respect to your excellent contributions to Misplaced Pages, I've had long experience with editors who blank massively without first seeking and obtaining consensus, as is our procedure at WP. From today's edits, you appear to be one of those. If and when you pledge to me you will abide by this thoughtful, considered manner of editing, you may post to my discussion page further. Otherwise, please post your opinions to other discussion pages rather than mine. ] (]) 05:54, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Case and spelled-out abbreviations


Just because capitals are used in an abbreviation doesn't mean initial capitals should be used in the expanded version.

Need some advice

Hi, if you have time to chat, can I ask for your advice on something? Non-FLG related BTW--PCPP (talk) 15:15, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Allegations of apartheid deletion notification

Some time ago, you participated in a deletion discussion concerning Allegations of Chinese apartheid. I thought you might like to know that the parent article, Allegations of apartheid, was recently nominated for deletion. Given that many of the issues that have been raised are essentially the same as those on the article on which you commented earlier, you may have a view on whether Allegations of apartheid should be kept or deleted. If you wish to contribute to the discussion, please see Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Allegations of apartheid (fifth nomination). -- ChrisO (talk) 17:55, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Paris tramway

Sorry, I'm on hollidays.

The only problem I saw was that Template:Paris tramway/transfer‎ links were incorrect.

Is it ok for you now?

BTW, if you have some time, could you check/upgrade Category:Paris public transport templates templates?

Very nice!

Hey, I loved your comments in the AfD discussion for the alleged 2009 film version of "My Fair Lady." Great fun! Ecoleetage (talk) 12:21, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Money Art

Your coin pun at this deletion discussion would have made me laugh and groan at the same time if that were physically possible. :) Somno (talk) 05:11, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Admin?

Hi. I just noticed that you are not an administrator. Any reason for that? Would you be interested? (First, you'd need to enable your e-mail! ) —Wknight94 (talk) 11:39, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Good humour but in that grey zone between offensive and funny

Wondering what the pork was doing here. Cos, some people would feel that it was totally uncalled for (in spite of the nice apology) since you could have made your point without it, and others like me would have been a wee bit more careful! Cheers. :) Prashanthns (talk) 06:17, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Foreign domestic helpers in Hong Kong

To repair a dead link go to the Internet Archive and enter the url. For the majority of the time, it will be able to find the link at a prior date when basically a screenshot was taken, which can then be linked to within the article. If there is an available date, just click on it and copy the url and paste it back into the article in place of the old link. For the access dates, it's best to update them occasionally so that readers know that the links still work. Checking every few months or at least once a year is a good way to find the dead links and attempt to repair them. Let me know if you need further help on any of these. Otherwise, the article still looks to me like it meets the GA criteria. --Nehrams2020 (talk) 09:09, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

N0tability discussions

The baseball notability guidelines are under discussion at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Baseball, you may be interested in participating. Spanneraol (talk) 19:39, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Taking actions against Dilip

This guy obviously has no interest in cooperating with the wikipedia community. He accused Antilived (talk · contribs) of being a vandal and CCP propagandist for adding a source by Phoenix TV to Reports of organ harvesting from Falun Gong in China and took him to ANI . Additionally he claimed that the "Nine Commentaries" is a reliable source of criticism of the CCP.. I will no longer hold this user in good faith.--PCPP (talk) 16:08, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Leung Chin-man appointment controversy

Nice job. :) F (talk) 08:39, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
