The description is accurate enough - or to put it another way, the description eliminates all the other benches. -- SGBailey 09:50, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

Everything old is new again

Just re-stumbled across this entry of yours on your thoughts page: . Looks like everything old is new again; wondered if you'd seen it. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 20:20, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose. Thanks for the hint. BTW, "thoughts" pages are usually among the most intersting to read. I wonder whether there should not be a category "User's thoughts about Misplaced Pages"; I haven't created it yet because I am unsure whether some users might find it intrusive to see their pages be made more visible. Any ideas? Kosebamse 13:07, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

I don't know, but I thought similarly: User:Mindspillage/userlinks is collecting some of these—bothe "thoughts" pages and various other user subpages I wanted to bookmark—as I stumble over them, slowly and haphazardly. (Please do feel free to add to it.) Perhaps there should be a Misplaced Pages: namespace page to collect them, with the authors' consent, of course; there are several I stumble over that I wish were more highly visible. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 14:44, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

In an ideal world, Meta would be the place for such things. In this world of ours, Meta is barely visible, messy and unpleasant. But a template with a list might be good compromise, so one could ask people for permission, then put their page into it and put it on pertinent pages. What do you think? Kosebamse 18:17, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

I like the idea. Worth mentioning on the Village Pump, perhaps. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 19:41, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Paid Editing Project

Hi: My name is Tess and I work for a global independent research firm in New York. I am interested in hiring you for a Misplaced Pages editing project, based on your technology and medical experience and expertise. I attempted to email you through your user page. If you received it, please read it over and contact me with any questions. If you did not receive this email, please let me know and I would be more than happy to tell you more about this project. (You can call 512-651-1797 or email tfurman@glgroup.com). Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon! Tess - Gerson Lehrman Group 19:28, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

Boilerplate

I'll take my life into my hands and hit you with the boilerplate. ;-)

As you seem to be around doing RC-patrol. Kind regards. Lectonar 10:17, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks. Kosebamse 10:19, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

Survey of article quality

I have formatted your subpage and commented on it at User talk:Kosebamse/Twenty-random-pages test. Uncle Ed 14:44, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks. I've sent a few more comments to the mailing list, but they did not seem to get through (mail server problem?), will wait until tomorrow, perhaps that will get sorted by then. Kosebamse 22:16, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Also visit Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Quality spot check for a suggested wikiproject on the theme. +sj + 10:56, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

That looks interesting, I'll look into it a little later. Thanks for the suggestion. Kosebamse 11:28, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

Emergency department

I wonder if you would consider supporting Emergency department at Misplaced Pages:Article improvement drive, to raise the profile of medicine on the wikipedia. The ED is a key area where the public receive emergency care, but the current article is very inadequate. Feel free to start editing the page!--File Éireann 23:41, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

International 806

Hi, You have inserted 'International 806' into 'Keelboats worldwide' template can you please add the associated article even if it is very small/limited? Thanks Boatman 15:06, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

Sure. I am doing a little more research and will write something then. Kosebamse 18:53, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

Signatures

Hi, I saw some of your great work cleaning up vandalism and warning the vandals. Just a reminder -- remember to sign your warnings with ~~~~. Keep up the great work! --Nlu 20:02, 17 November 2005 (UTC)

RfC concerning Roylee

You might be interested in Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Roylee, as you were the first to welcome this editor and to recognize some of the problems with his edits. Your input would be appreciated. — mark ✎ 11:04, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Ball washer

From a quick thrawl of the history page of Golf you seem to be its major contributor.Could you spare some time to spice up the article on ball washers, perhaps drop in a free image we can use? - Mgm| 08:59, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

hi, there is an organized campaign to save the above self-promotional vanity games-club page from deletion.... i'm wondering if you'd be willing to take a look and voice your opinion? normally i wouldnt care but (a) i hate organized campaigns from groups of users (especially when they have vested interests but dont declare them) and (b) when challenged about it, they suggested i try it myself! so here i am.... cheers!

Bjørnøya location map

Well, I'm a bit out of practice with location maps, and the northerly position means that the projection might distort things a bit, but I've uploaded an attempt at Image:LocationByornoya.png. Would that be suitable? -- Vardion 22:43, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Sorry about the missing box — I've added it now. -- Vardion 08:24, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

Suggestions

I've left a few suggestions, obviously subjective. You might ask Antandrus as well, if you've ever come across him (or even if you haven't; tell him I sent you); this sort of thing would be up his alley. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 17:36, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
