So many people here spout & sputter about ], while labeling people & their comments "brain-damage", "nonsense", et-al.

That does not earn any ]. Period. You oppose what I'm requesting, fine; I disagree, but, every time one of you insist on labeling me that way, it only builds bile & ], ].

I am aware that this is the first time f/ "you, singular"; but, the nasty tone of "brain-damage", "nonsense", "gibberish", et-cetera, is consistent.

Don't tell me "good faith" while labeling me in this manner.

Ugh,

*I think at least some of ]'s points (incomprehensibly stated above) are:
**The article ] contains the phrase "a 824-acre", which should be changed to "an 824-acre".
**The history of ] should mention ]; according to the links the user provided, the company was initially founded (or "built") there.
**Somebody should start a ] page; this is apparently a real place in California, but it's still a redlink.
**And as to the mention of disambiguation, I think the user suggests that an appropriate disambiguation notice linking to ] should go on top of the ] article.
*That, at least, is how I read those (incomprehensible) comments. ] 17:03, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

== Blackwater vs Black water ==

There are four entries on this page that have a space. I think that is enough to warrant not having "Black water" redirect here. So I'd like to see what anyone who watches this page thinks about how we should address it. My suggestion, and what I will do if there are no objections, is move the Pendragon novel to "Black Water", and have a hatenote with a "Black water" disambig page, and on the top of that disambig page, leave a hatnote about the "Blackwater" disambig page. I might create just a disambig page, since I don't see any actual justification for having it at the Pendragon novel (other than I like it ^^) But I'd like comments before I do. Thanks.

I would like wikipedia to know Blackwater, the band, a rock band in Sydney Australia.

Blackwater USA duplicate entry at the top of the page

I've added a duplicate entry for Blackwater USA at the top of the page. This can be removed later when they are no longer in the news. Justification is that many people are searching for "Blackwater" now and the entry for "Blackwater USA" is down at the end of the page - where is presumably belongs under normal circumstances. --RenniePet 12:48, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Blackwater vs Black water

There are four entries on this page that have a space. I think that is enough to warrant not having "Black water" redirect here. So I'd like to see what anyone who watches this page thinks about how we should address it. My suggestion, and what I will do if there are no objections, is move the Pendragon novel to "Black Water", and have a hatenote with a "Black water" disambig page, and on the top of that disambig page, leave a hatnote about the "Blackwater" disambig page. I might create just a disambig page, since I don't see any actual justification for having it at the Pendragon novel (other than I like it ^^) But I'd like comments before I do. Thanks. I (talk) 05:09, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Would you object to a reference in the hatnote to Blackwater Worldwide? It's arguably the most notable usage of the phrase in the past 4-5 years. Other than that, good idea! Lawrence Cohen 22:19, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Merge proposal

I see that there was some discussion earlier of splitting the pages, but this page (Blackwater) continues to have some "Black water" entries, and the Black water entries, and the actual Black water page is fairly short. I find it slightly confusing to have two pages with material not well distributed between them, and propose going back to a single page. bd2412 T 16:47, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

Agreed. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 01:19, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
