Hi. In regards to your comment on my bd-bio tag, I initially did a Google Test on Joseph Borovsky which failed miserably.

== Image experience ==

Anthony, my general thought is that a lack of experience with images isn't a big problem. Not every admin knows every part of Misplaced Pages.

*On a second point, I am incorrect in my stated belief that The Prophet is never referred to by his unadorned name, without honorific?

*It has been a long time since I sat at the feet of the storyteller in the market, but I always heard some form of honorific with his name, however so it may be a great deal more variety than your query might suggest, ''e.g.'' "blessed be his name", "peace be upon him", etc. Nonetheless, I am unaware of anything more than tradition that would require it. I don't know of any ]s directly on point, but it is not anywhere near my primary areas of scholarship, so I would defer to others. Certainly saying "The Prophet Mohammed" removes all doubt with respect to what is now a extraordinarily common name. --] 19:22, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi, just to butt in, it is customary for Muslims to write "Muhammad SAW", with the SAW standing for "Shallallahu `alaihi Wa Sallam", Arabic for "peace be upon Him". Some English language Muslim sites use PBUH as the abbreviation. When referring to the role, it is conventional to capitalise the word "Prophet". ] 02:22, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

I have to say that ever since ], I've made it a point to call out ludicrous opposition on RfA. Despite bureaucrat's best intentions, RfA is still in essence a vote and I believe that unless people make a stand against trivial opposition in RfA, we will continue to have distortions in the process. Of course in your case, it's not like that one oppose will make any sort of difference given the kind of massive support you're receiving (rightly so) but as a matter of principle...

Why did you remove my external links?

If you've come here because you want to know why I removed some external links you've added, please read Misplaced Pages's policies on spam, Misplaced Pages external link guidelines and conflict-of-interest first. Because of Misplaced Pages's popularity, it has become a target for folks looking to promote their sites, which is against Misplaced Pages policies. If you read WP:SPAM and still feel that your link(s) does not violate those policies, let me know.

One common argument I hear is But so-and-so link is on that article, and it's commercial! WP:EL doesn't explicitly forbid In links to commercial sites; it depends on the notability of the link, its content, and if it's a reference or a notable pro/con argument on a controversial subject, etc. On the other hand, I think that many Wikipedians would agree that there are way too many commercial links at present time, so feel free to "prune away" if the link doesn't meet guidelines in WP:EL. Incidentally, if you've come here to complain that I've deleted links to your blog (especially a blog with advertising), don't bother. You'll have to find free advertising somewhere else.

Sad news, Tony is a name I remember well from when I was learning the ropes here all those years ago. A valuable contributor lost. RIP. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 14:32, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
Tony passed his RfA just days after me, and together with editors like you, Acalamari, was a huge part in the progression of Misplaced Pages in the relatively early days. His name was one of those that you would see doing so much to help and mentor new editors, solve disputes and above all, create some very important content. His death, which will create an enormous void for his family and friends, also creates an enormous empty space here on Misplaced Pages. Dr Nick Birse (talk) 20:05, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
