Masturbation

Hey, sorry if I did this wrong, I'm kind of new to this. Well, here's where I got the etymology from - http://en.wiktionary.org/masturbation.

Pando

Thanks for commenting on the Pando (Quaking Aspen) article. We are currently trying to have it achieve featured article status. Any input on its peer review would be helpful. Thank you again. Globeism 16:19, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Me

I notice you made a page about me. Do I know who you are? --Thomas Bushnell

John Mason Neale

Thanks for the pic you uploaded, I am still trying to figure out just how to put pics into articles. I put the Anglican stuff in because he merits it. I am working for the Wiki-Project:Anglicanism and am trying to improve articles on our Church, especially historic figures like Neale.

Suffragan Bishops Act 1534

I'm not sure what the answer is for Perth in this article. If it is left either unlinked or pointing to the disambiguation page someone will try to "fix" it like I did. Perhaps some kind of note would be best? Ttwaring 12:20, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

TfD nomination of Template:Scotland infobox

Template:Scotland infobox has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you. --Durin 18:20, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Anarchist symbolism

I'm sorry, I misinterpreted the usage of the word. I believed it was being used in a derogatory way.

In passing

Nice piccy on your user page - just thought I'd say! Regards --Nigel 15:37, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Quick comment

Adding the link to Stereotypy (psychiatry) to Asperger syndrome was a very good idea. Not sure why I didn't think of it. PurplePlatypus 20:09, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to WikiProject LGBT studies!

Hi, Renamed user owrgjw35p9gh8eigh, welcome to WikiProject LGBT Studies! We are a growing community of Misplaced Pages editors dedicated to identifying, categorizing, and improving articles of interest to the LGBT community. Some points that may be helpful: Our main aim is to help improve LGBT-related articles, so if someone asks for help with an article, please try your hardest to help them if you are able. Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it. The project has several ongoing and developing activities, such as article quality assessment, peer review and a project-wide article collaboration, all of which you are welcome to take part in. We also have a unique program to improve our lower quality articles, Jumpaclass, so please consider signing up there. If you have another language besides English, please consider adding yourself to our translation section, to help us improve our foreign LGBT topics. If you're planning to stay, have a square in our quilt! You can put anything you want in it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the talk page, and we will be happy to help you. And once again - Welcome!

Good to have you! :D Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 18:07, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

LGBT WikiProject newsletter

The LGBT studies WikiProject Newsletter

The LGBT studies WikiProject Newsletter! Issue IV - March 1, 2007 Monthly Challenge: Find 5 editors to LGBT articles and invite them to the project! Check out our recruitment tips if you need them. Good luck! Project News With such rapid development of the project, it was decided that a Coordinator was needed to ensure all the fiddly maintenence was kept up. Elections were held and Dev920 (talk · contribs) has been elected Coordinator for the next three months. She said "I am honoured and proud to be at the helm of such a fantastic WikiProject and look forward to our future". Congratulations Dev! The assessment system continues to be a great success, we have tagged over 5200 articles! Please tag any LGBT related articles you come across by adding {{LGBTProject | class=}} to the talkpage. Please see the Assessment Department for how to assess an article according to the grading system. Jumpaclass is proving to be quite successful! The winner at the end of the year gets to pick the January collaboration, so sign up and get going! Or challenge another user to see how far you can jump a stub! A new Community department has been set up to foster community amongst our members. It mostly acts as other WikiProjects' Outreach department, but also has a Quilt to which every member is entitled to add a square containing anything of their choice. The peer review is not getting much custom - please notice you can cross-list other peer reviews from different projects that also fall within our scope. Many people still seem to be unaware that the Deletion sorting subpage exists for XfDs to be listed: please use and watch that page instead of issuing "alerts" for ordinary AfDs on the project talkpage. WP:FILM has a current drive to give every film article an infobox. WP:LGBT successfully gave all 105 LGBT infoboxless films infoboxes, so a big thank you to everyone who participated. A new template, LGBT-footer, has been created for articles which are becoming to cluttered with infoboxes. Thanks to WJBscribe and SatyrTN for creating it. A very basic resources page has been started. Please add to it as you come across useful sites. A promotional poster for the project has been created: http://wplgbt.tripod.com/Wikipedianeedsyou.doc (you have to directly cut and paste the url, or it won't let you download it). Please distribute anywhere and everywhere you desire, such as gay libraries, cybercafes, community centres and so on. Also, please let Dev920 know where you have put it up, so she can keep track of our coverage. An LGBT Publications Taskforce has been proposed. Please sign up here if you are interested in being involved. An LGBT WikiProject has been set up on the Spanish Misplaced Pages! Set up by Raystorm, it has already gained six members and is developing an assessment system. If you speak any Spanish, please consider going up and lending a hand if you can! Article News An LGBT article, Homosexual readings of Jesus and John, made it onto the main page as a DYK this month. Congratulations to Haiduc, who wrote the article. Another article, Same-sex marriage in Italy, also made it onto the main page as a DYK this month. Congratulations to Raystorm, who wrote the article. And another article, George Cecil Ives, made it to the front page DYKs this month. Congratulations to Zefrog, who wrote the article.

Query about trolling

I have a question about trolling, and I'd like to know what I should do to abide by policy. User 85.167.110.193 aka 85.167.118.130 is repeatedly adding insulting comments to Talk:Asperger_syndrome about people with this condition. They are not addressing how the article can be improved; they seem only intent on arousing anger within the other contributors, many of whom have the condition themselves. Is this vandalism which should be reported? Should I be reverting it? Please advise. The Wednesday Island 20:18, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes. It is definitely trolling. You can always report behavior at WP:ANI or vandalism at WP:AIV. IrishGuy 22:35, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
