Check up

Hey, its been some time since the DuMont Television Network peer review and I just want to let you know I havent forgot about it. I see you still working on it and I intend to keep my promise and copyedit the article. So let me know when you finished. - Tutmosis 20:41, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your note, Tutmosis. Yes, I am still working on your suggestions, and thanks for your promise. I will certainly let you know when I'm done, and plan to be finished in a few more days. Thanks for your patience. :) Firsfron of Ronchester 20:50, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Kiero

Hey, sorry, I don't know much about Kiero, other than three songs that existed on it (Rise Like The Sun (The Dawn), Ride Like The Sun (The Dusk), and Musical Essence) and the fact it was only available in Toronto for a short while. There's an interview here where K-os expresses interest in re-releasing it, but only after being allowed to tamper with and redo the songs. Other than that, I've only found a few mentions here and there on various websites, but no meaty info. (Rishi B 20:09, 21 October 2006 (UTC))

Hey again, I recently found some more info on k-os... seems in addition to Kiero, he had something called "Take You There"... it was an EP that contained the songs Take You There, and the Rise Like The Sun songs. Just the three tracks. It sometimes pops up on ebay, and according to a , it's legit. Apparently, it was distributed by an indie label (Pure) in the states, and is pretty hard to find (duh).(Rishi B 10:22, 25 October 2006 (UTC))

Sir Syed FAC

Hi Tutmosis - thank you my friend - I really appreociate it. I've got to say I was a bit frightened when this FAC didn't get a single comment for more than 36 hours! Rama's arrow 16:48, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, FA drives are the real way to fulfill Misplaced Pages's purpose. The best part is I end up learning a lot more while writing an FA! Many thanks again, Rama's arrow 17:28, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Re: Hey

Hi. I find that musicsquare.net is useful for worldwide chart positions (though it only goes back to 2003), and you can find U.S. chart positions at billboard.com. There is also a less well-known chart called the ARC Weekly Top 40, the official website for which is at rockonthenet.com. I should note that some of the information on top40-charts.com is inaccurate. As for choosing which ones to include, I'd recommend against including airplay or download charts because I think a country's main single chart is an adequate indicator of a single's popularity in that country - there's no point including three charts if one conveys essentially the same information. I do think it is good to include any relevant genre-specific charts; for example, in the U.S. you have the Pop 100, Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and so on. Hope that helps.

Settlers II Gameplay

Hey I heard you were working on Settlers II. I looked over the gameplay section, and it looks pretty good. I wouldn't call it cheesy; it's written from an out of world perspective, and I think it covers all aspects (probably the two biggest problems of gameplay sections). I've never played the game, but are their different sides you can be (I.E. axis and allies in WWII games)? That's really all I saw missing from the gameplay section (it's kinda hard to know what's missing if you haven't played the game, and it'd be pretty dumb for me to pull that "broad in coverage" junk.). Another thing that might be the reason that you called it cheesy was because most of the paragrapghs subjects were "the player." For example "During the beginning of the game, the main warehouse is the only building that has a radius granting the player territory. The player can expand his territory by building any of the three possible military complex's near the border of his current territory and sending atleast 1 soldier to operate the complex. A serf can become a soldier once a sword and a shield are constructed." could be "During the beginning of the game, only the main warhouse has the ability to grant territory for further growth. Territory can be expanded by creating one of three military complexs near territory borders. Each complex must have at least one soilder to continually operate the complex. Soilders can be created by constructing a sword and shield, and using them to upgrade a serf." I'm not great with prose or spelling, but the idea I was trying to convey was that the subject changes as the paragrapgh moves on. If you are talking about soilders and how cool they are and you want to move on to serfs, try to connect them. I know you've probably dealt with prose a thousand times, but I'm just trying to get across that prose is still there in RTS games. If you need more help with structuring video game sections, JimmyBlackwing helped me out a lot. You're doing a great job though. Keep up the good work. --Clyde Miller 22:29, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Well look at the orginal research stuff if you haven't already (good stuff there), but usually people are more leanent with what needs to be citied regarding video games. It goes case by case usually, but stats and actual ideas are usually citied. I think I may have citied some uneeded things in Empires, but I think it is usually better to cite more than less. If you say that soilders fight, don't cite it, but if you say that soilders can kill serfs better than other serfs, you might want to cite that. I dunno, it's kinda hard to define.--Clyde Miller 22:44, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

1. ^ me (stupid joke)

I am quite surprised you understood that. As for after the FAC, I haven't really thought about it. If you need some help with Settlers I could give help out. I'm stil a relative noob here (under 1000 edits) and Empires is my first project. I don't know what to do next.--Clyde Miller 22:56, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Cool. Uh...have fun.--Clyde Miller 04:41, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Indian Navy Template

Excellent work. I did not know the code work and all. You did an excellent work by removing all the unwanted code and making it look nice. Even I had a thought of changing the colour to white but did not do it. I think the Motto looks somewhat smaller and the text to the links need to be in bold so that it looks attractive. I will do that.Thanking you.

The bold size did not work nicely. It looks very odd. So not making changes there. Chanakyathegreat 15:47, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Dude, I really appreciate this. I don't know how many people would believe it, but I will value your barnstar and those others have kindly given me, "for life." More important than the star are the kind thoughts and the time you took to think of me. If I can ever be of assistance, just gimme a buzz. Cheers, Rama's arrow 00:49, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Featured article candidates/NeXT

Your latest concerns have been addressed, as far as I can tell.

To answer your questions:

• NeXTWORLD magazine is mentioned because it was the only magazine to cover NeXT's products - I think its of note.
• The NeXT RISC Workstation is not the NeXTstation, the RISC workstation was an un-released project that was canceled and never finished.

Thanks for your help so far, — Wackymacs 15:40, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Fuck off!

You imbecile! How dare you belittle my honest contribution to that page with the insulting epithet "nonsense." Have you ever even heard of the song? Do you even know what Lake Cayuga is? Did you consider the incredibly obvious fact that the content of my edit makes sense in context? Do you know what the fuck you are talking about? I humbly beseech you to do research before obliterating my gift to the annals of human knowledge defiling my talk page with your sententious, self-righteous, and ignorant garbage.

Woundedly yours, CML

P.S. I also suggest that you take retribution upon the narcissistic autocrat LittleOldMan, for violating the policy of not blanking out or reverting other users' comments. Revert Cayuga to my edit at once. Goodbye.
