Hi. You've helped with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

Thanks for the invite; it's good to know that some liberals still exist in the States. Frekja 16:22, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Frankly, Wikipedia's "netrality" on criminals, propagandists, and other evil characters is rather less admirable than you seem to think it is. The article on Mao Tze-Tung, for example, completely fails to hold him culpable for the tens of millions of Chinese people that he killed through his policy of starvation as a means of political control. That's not an opinion, it's a FACT, and is only disputed by agents of the Socialist propaganda mill.

Thank you for calling my attention to Louvre's Aristoteles. It looks great and I replaced the old one. Best Wishes, David Cruise 15:32, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I noticed you placed a lot of unsourced images (NS) at WP:IFD. To save you a bit of work, you can tag each image as {{db|This image is an orphan and it has no source. ~~~~}} so it will be deleted on the spot. No source/no license images can be speedy deleted after lasting a week on Wikipedia. It's something you should consider next time. Thanks again, Zach (Sound Off) 22:57, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Nice work there on the wikis and the cats. :) --Syrthiss 00:29, 12 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Please do not remove a blank space between italics and upright text. It is needed in some fonts.--Patrick 22:04, 2 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a bunch for adding to my list of images in the wrong format! Please feel free to add to the list whenever you find another such image. —Bkell 17:04, 21 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your words on Kurdistan, I couldn't have said it better :) - FrancisTyers 13:18, 25 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Well, how about down the road..when I'm a prominent Historical Figure you toss my page back up there. Remember these words. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abidhusain17 (talk • contribs)

hello Caesura. Regarding the cycle graph (algebra) page, you wrote (dab link not needed; no one would come to cycle graph (algebra) unless they wanted the algebra meaning, not the graph theory meaning). I am not sure this is the case. A mathematician would not need a disambiguation, but if a non-specialist googled "cycle graph" and happened to come to the (algebra) page first, they might think the story only went that far, having a disambiguation link costs very little and can be helpful to non-specialists. What do you think? Debivort 15:23, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

the problem is while true piccolo coloratura is NOT a highly recognized term for a coloratura, a google search on the term would have actually yielded a few hits. Granted, the term is most notable because early literature for Minnie riperton reverred her as the "piccolo coloratura". Coloratura in pop music stuck. piccolo didn't. But its not a neologism or anything. I actually wished I had known about the prod. Now its gone and there's no chance of bringing it back. But think the reference on the disambig page should stay, its at least that notable.

It's no problem. I wished I had known about the prod, I could have defended the article (or tried anyway). anyway, bug all you want, its cool :-) Antares33712 16:15, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Works great for me. I did do the deletion review, but that may be enough for now. Antares33712 20:37, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Caesura,

Thanks for the welcome and the guidance on Wikipedia style.

I checked out your bio and was suprised to see you're also a Mac guy! Neat.

Thanks for pointing me to WP:ORG. WP:CSD a7 says "If the assertion is disputed or controversial, it should be taken to AFD instead," so I took it to AFD where it was promptly speedied. To me it's not a big deal; it's just exasperating to be constantly refused when all I'm trying to do is get more input than {{db-club}}. --Spangineer^[es] (háblame) 13:03, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

on AfdAnons -- it really needed the reduction. Way to go! Morton devonshire 06:31, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You mentioned you were going to submit an AFD for Matriarchal marriage as well. There's a third article, Head of the household, by the same contributor. You might want to take a look at it and see if you think it should be AFD-ed as well. I think all three of them are rather loaded, POV articles that probably don't belong here. --Elkman - (Elkspeak) 15:37, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I had been told not, but first thing criticism. The Be Bold no count? Nice guy, you. Trunk 19:00, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
