I just wanted to say thanks for the welcome to wikipedia. In the short time I've been here, I've done a lot of anti-vandalism, but haven't yet created my own article.

==Your comment to the survey==
Hey, I noticed that you made . That is why , like I try to be, are important to IRC channels. Often, I watch and participate in constructive policy and guideline disputes, discussions about improving and articles, and mostly off-topic nonsense and intelligent discussion, all usually imbued with Misplaced Pages culture. Furthermore, there are channels intended for tracking recent changes, such as #vandalism-en-wp, which I find essential.

Finally, public logging is intended to avoid making extemporal off-topic comments permanent. If you asked me, I would release my copyright on any Misplaced Pages-related discussion (permission is required, since it's copyrighted), and most others would probably also. If there's anyone that uses IRC for making binding decisions about blocking regulars, or canvassing RFAs, or making personal attacks, that's not ideal, but that's what I try to prevent: a high channel temperature and culture of a cabal. By the way, have you read the recent ArbCom statement on IRC channel usage? ]<sup>]</sup> &#167; 23:50, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

== Why append time zone list to ]? ==

Your to ] has the effect of appending several lines to the page, most of them relevant to time zones rather than to daylight saving time. It's true that there are two lines at the end that say "Northern hemisphere countries or territories observing daylight saving time (DST)" and similar for the southern hemisphere, but these labels don't have any data associated with them so they're fairly useless; and even if this were fixed the information is already at the start of the page in a more-useful form (the thumbnail map). Would you mind reverting that change?

== Comments on RfA comments ==

Hello JustH. I don't think it will serve much purpose for me to have that discussion within JuJube's RfA but I still want to comment on your note to the effect that "''Pascal, it's the 'crats job to assess the validity ''". While I sort of agree with you in principle, I think this actually doesn't happen much in reality. Furthermore, oppose votes tend to snowball on RfA and baseless oppose opinions on RfA create unnecessary frustration for the candidates. So I've made it a habit of mind to call out the particularly silly opposes as a way to preserve the little bit of sanity left in that process and, hopefully, to change people's habits in the long run. Cheers, ] 13:40, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
:I most certainly was not insulted by your comments (and I don't think anyone in their right mind could have been). I just wanted an opportunity to say that I hadn't made the comment because of my stake in Jujube's RfA or my personal dislike of Sethdoe92 (I don't really know either of them). I'm not trying to change Sethdoe92's mind about JuJube but we can't let these vague innuendo-laden opposes in RfA stand, especially since a number of people view unfavorably candidates that actually stand up for themselves in such cases.

Hey there,

Thanks for your comments supporting my proposal to merge the ] and the ] into the ].

I humbly apologize if this was not your intention.

I also added that the page ] be merged into the article as well, and updated the table to reflect it. However, as your comment of support was made prior to this addition, I do not know where you stand for this page and as such would like you to cast your vote for this page as well, if you are inclined to. As it stands the List of Wii games using Miis contains less votes than the other two proposals. Thanks again. -] 05:16, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
