Regarding Whipps Cross University Hospital

Did you mean to put 2012 for the year of the opening of the new hospital? Everything I've seen says that 2012 is the year. --Spring Rubber 05:40, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, that was my mistake; for some reason, I didn't even think to check the history. I just assumed it was a copyvio from the beginning, and you added that part. --Spring Rubber 06:15, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

I was planning to remove it in the next 24 hours anyhow. 132.241.245.49 05:41, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comments

Thank you for your comments.I created the page to track all the images that I had uploaded... I was mis-guided earlier as I thought that all the images from the Government of India are PD images... I bloody spent a lot of time and efforts in getting those images and now I feel really bad then when they get deleted.. This should have had been avoided if some one would had reviewed the template earlier itslef.........................That particlular page only helps me to see as to how many images uploaded by me are no longer available :( but can't help.. rules are rules...............--IndianCow 08:25, 9 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Timeline of unfulfilled Christian prophecy

The voteing for renaming this article has gone into a second round. I would like to ask you to continue to vote and stay involved in the discussion. Thanks --T-rex 22:51, 14 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The final round of voting is in progress. Your opinion would be welcome. Best, Tex 00:10, 25 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Referencing

Thanks for adding the referencing/citation templates to Libyan Arab Air Cargo. I wasn't sure how to do that and now I know, I learn something new every day. Really though, I felt kind of silly that a few line stub, with four "references" in it, got tagged as unsourced. :) -Dawson 07:09, 18 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

sorry

Hey, sorry about IRC, you know how bad connections are! :) --Ali K 09:49, 18 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you're still trying to get on... once you get your connection back, you can connect to the server with a different name (Ali_K2 or something) and then ghost your original nick. So: change your nick, connect, when it connects type /nickserv ghost Ali_K password and then that will kick off your other name so you can get back on it. ... Assuming the reason you're not getting on is because the server is booting you for already being connected ;D —Seqsea (talk) 10:00, 18 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Game

Hi, on the 8th of February, User:Brabblebrex added the following "A link to this article has been displayed in an advertisement for OmniGraffle in MacAddict publications. [1]" [2] . On the 9th, IP 4.246.105.71 added "The Game is also mentioned in the same add in the March 2006 Macworld, page 8" [3]. This information has not yet been verified, but if it is true it would fit into the Wikipedia requirements you mention. Maybe you can help me try to verify this source. Thanks, Kernow 01:11, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

See my latest post on the AFD. —Seqsea (talk) 02:40, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean your change from keep to delete? That is why I posted this message here, because it sounded like you were looking for sources other than blogs and personal websites. Kernow 17:27, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I mean for my vote to stay as delete. I was looking for more sources, but as far as I can tell, they don't exist. Had the advertisement been more substantial than simply the article's URL I might have considered changing my vote back, but the advertisement is exactly what User:Brabblebrex said it was: a link to our article. —Seqsea (talk) 17:51, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

*Smacks head* never mind. :P --Kizor 22:39, 11 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks.

Thanks for noticing the sneaky impostor in my userpage edit history. It was easy to miss. It's been blocked. (reply at my talk page if you want, my watchlist is huge enough :P) — nath a nrdotcom ^{(T • C • W)} 22:24, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Registration

I registered here about 26 months ago (and between that account and static IPs I have at least 30,000 edits here), but have done virtually no logged-in editing for the past 6 months, because I don't like where this project is headed: too much use of Wikipedia resources for non-article uses, elitism in articles and policies, etc.

Since I no longer believe in this project, I don't want to edit under my username (which happens to still be in the top 75 on both these lists), but I keep showing up here as an IP as I'm having trouble kicking my Wikiholism. So I mostly edit on the Simple English Wikipedia now, and end up here when I'm checking something for that project. About the only editing I expect to do logged in here in the near future is to clear my User page down to just the reasons for my absence. 24.18.215.132 03:38, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unsigned propaganda :)

Wikipedia rules all! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.44.187.92 (talk • contribs) 03:36, April 14, 2006 (UTC).

Be careful when reverting

When a vandal makes more than one consecutive edit, be sure to revert all of their edits, not just the most recent one. For instance, this: [6] was not a full revert [7]. -- Curps 05:27, 14 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ooops. Thanks for noticing and letting me know (and I'm usually so good about that too!) —Seqsea (talk) 03:15, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Badonkadonk

Your article doesn't even mention the defining characteristic of a Badonkadonk: extreme curvaceousness. Someone reading your article could conclude that any woman with a nice a** had a Badonkadonk. More references is not better. Your reference 2 is utterly clueless about urban culture if she doesn't know about the Missy Elliot #2 hit. Your other reference distorts 3 lines of source lyrics into one. And the Jamie Foxx reference is basically superfluous. Sometimes an article with some unreferenced material that gets to the point is better than references that are off base.

And what's with elevating the Trace Atkins song to top billing? It's a great song, but pay some respect to the originators.

Tracy Morgan was a cast member of Saturday Night Live from 1996 - 2003 on the Best of Tracy Morgan DVD dated 2004 he makes mention of the ba-donk-adonk in his second included interview with Conan,this is just prior to the beginning of his 7th season on the show. In the August-September period of 2003 . During this second interview ,he explains the references with hand gestures and vocalizations."one cheek goes up,badonkadonk,the other goes down badonkadonk" .It is also during this episode that Conan makes mention of his "wildly" popular recording that is being downloaded , it originated the use of the term badonkadonk butt while Tracy was portraying Spoonie Luv in the Comedy Central Program Crank Yankers during its 2nd season approximately 2002. Also an mp3 recording of the Crank Yankers segment is available for download at http://www.thisisarecording.com/crankyankers/cyank004.shtml. Sochwa 06:29, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot!

About an article I worked on for a short while, and abandoned work on temporarily: The Hindu. I put a cleanup tag for citation style there, mainly due to my own laziness, because, the work on Npov dispute was somewhat wearisome for me. I intended to catch up sometime later and cleanup the citations. Thanks, Chris. Great work! I'll finish up some of the loose ends, and possibly attend to the general cleanup work required.-Pournami 05:34, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, glad to help with making our citations prettier ;D —Seqsea (talk) 16:42, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Appreciate the feedback about merging. I saw that you had taken care of it for me. OSU80 01:56, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lexemes

On this edit of yours: eat, ate, eaten and eating are different forms of the same lexeme, and in linguistics contexts it's normal to use small caps (no quotation marks or italics) and write this as EAT (EAT). (I don't think Mediawiki software allows for genuine small caps, other than by laborious CSS.) For am, is, are, was, were, be, and being, it's BE (so yes, it's the "dictionary form"). These are a lot handier than "be or its other forms", let alone "eat or its other verbal forms (thus not including eater, edible etc)".

But thank you for your interest in AAVE article, which has recently gone through a tranquil period but is frequently targeted by people who seem depressingly ignorant (I mean, of dialectology and of what the article says) when not blatantly racist. -- Hoary 23:33, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:31, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
