Reverts

Hi! Good work on doing all those vandalism reverts. You may also want to start adding warnings to the user pages of the vandals - there are a ton of good, easy templates to use at: Misplaced Pages:Template messages/User talk namespace. Mcwatson 15:48, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of H. S. Paul School

I've nominated H. S. Paul School, an article you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that H. S. Paul School satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and the Misplaced Pages deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/H. S. Paul School and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of H. S. Paul School during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you.

Transcontinental countries

Way to set the putz straight who plastered the transcontinental country page with his/her Eurocentric nonsense! I am a lifelong US citizen who believes in factual integrity of geographical Misplaced Pages pages and detests unvarnished bias like we saw. It would have been better netiqutte for the culprit to delete Denmark from the island list than to insult North Americans with the BS that you graciously reverted. I refrained from giving the culprit my piece of mind, but simply felt like thanking you. It wasn't vandalism, but was inappropriate nonetheless. I never thought that the universe could be centered on North America any more than it could be centered on Europe. Heff01 01:28, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you

For helping me on the Mad minute page. Have been lost in wikipedia all day here at the office, and when I saw there was no article about the mad minute I just had to make one even thou my head was as heavy as lead.

Concerning Dominique REGEF

Hello to you; it was me who deleted the page, and it was not because it was in French (that in itself would be no ground for speedy deletion), but because even in French it did not establish the notability of the subject (my French is good enough for that), so WP:CSD criterion A7 applies; btw, it does not establish notability now. I intend to delete it again. Cheers and happy editing. Lectonar 15:36, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Strike-through text

OOPS

LOL still getting the hang of this. Forgot to sign my previous comment to you

Hey howcome my paragraphs are not the way I originally wrote them and seem to stretch across my monitor instead of being neat, justified paragraphs.

Hi Again

Hi again

Thanks for the short note regarding my article, or rather attempt at an article on my old high school. I wasn't thinking of doing a full blown information filled article.

I just wanted to add my school to the list and made a couple of comments. I wasn't aware of writing in the third person, nuetral context. I shall keep that in mind in future. I thought the page breaks would keep the article neat with paragraphs of short lines.

I think I know why it looked odd because it must have wrapped to fit my screen which is a widescreen —Preceding unsigned comment added by JohnDarkVampire (talk • contribs) 13:06, August 25, 2007 (UTC)
