==Not much fun==
Henrik, you're very sweet. Even when you disagree with me, you've been respectful and helpful. Thanks for your kind note. I just wish people wouldn't attack other people when they're just trying to improve articles! Maybe I should just leave the NG article alone. I don't want to just give up on it, but if I keep fighting there I'll lose my temper and it won't be pretty. Thanks again! ] 19:43, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Welcome

Welcome!

Hello Henrik, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Misplaced Pages:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! 

And one remark. Tex-ifying equations is good, as long as it does not lead to (excessive) number of formulas which appear as images, unless those formulas are displayed on their own line. That per the math style manual. Enjoy! Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 22:18, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Much thanks for the welcome, Oleg. I wanted to read the article, and tex-style equations are much easier to read (for me at least). But the math style manual is right, it makes sense to write inline equations in html. Thanks for the link. Henrik 23:10, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
Some formulas look just awful in html, agree. Then probably one may use LaTeX. There is no perfect solution. We are praying for MathML improve on things, whenever that time comes. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 00:31, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Thank you Henrik. StabiloBoss 17:07, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome :-) The welcome message I got from Oleg Alexandrov above really encouraged me to stick around and edit, so I try to return the favor when I can. If you have any problems editing in the future, I'd be happy to try to help out. Henrik 17:36, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
Good :) I will not forget and I will ask you. Don't forget about it :) StabiloBoss 17:43, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks ] :)

You also :) StabiloBoss 19:36, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Hey there, Henrik!

Hey there, Henrik! Thank you so much for that information about how to put a picture into an article. I have been trying to do that for the past two weeks and it has been getting me nowhere! I was almost beginning to give up before I got the message! I only just got a new account for wikipedia a couple of weeks ago because I wanted to put up some information about Carey Mulligan so I basically have no clue as to what I'm doing. :0). Thanks again. xo. AdaClare 21:32, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

(Oops, I almost missed this message) No problem, this place can be pretty confusing :-) I hope you decide to stick around. If there's anything else you're having problems with, just send me a message and I'll try to help out! Henrik 18:09, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Esperanza

Welcome, Henrik, to Esperanza, the Misplaced Pages member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member, you might be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Misplaced Pages events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles.

I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Celestianpower, and guided by the Advisory Committee , KnowledgeOfSelf, JoanneB, Titoxd and FireFox. The elections have ended.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact me via email or talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Misplaced Pages a better place to be!

Thanks! -- File:Ottawa flag.png nathanrdotcom 19:55, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Thank you! *haha* Nice practical joke. One question: The spam list seems to have been deleted, does it exist elsewhere or is it is time to update the welcoming template? Henrik 20:07, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
You're welcome. I have no idea, so I think I'll just update the template. - File:Ottawa flag.png nathanrdotcom 20:33, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Note

Hello, I noticed you edited a Hip Hop related article. If you wish you can join the new Hip Hop Wikiproject. Thanks for your time. Tutmosis 22:55, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Consignee

I notice that you have put the technical template on to consignee. As I said on the talk page some time ago, this is a technical subject and a lay reader should probably go to a technical source for the full explanation. However, if you would care to co-operate by indicating which sentences should be explained and why, I will rewrite those elements. It is customary to do this on the talk pages when you put up the template so that you can take responsibility for guiding the process, but since you are new to Wiki, we can start the process of clarification now. Please reply on the talk page. David91 03:24, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

I just did a small mini-project of moving all misplaced technical templates on articles to the corresponding talk pages, so I didn't really add the technical template. That was done by User:Seano1 in july last year (see here). Personally, I think Consignee is reads fine, so we could just remove the template. Henrik 06:58, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #1

Reach out
Reach out is a program aimed at allowing users to bring issues that they have had in Misplaced Pages to a listening, sympathetic and caring audience:
"No one can know how we feel if we do not say. We cannot expect to get understanding if we do not ask for it. No one will dispute that sometimes life's issues are too much for one person. It is fair to say that sometimes Misplaced Pages's problems fall under the same heading. This is a place where you can bring the bruises that can sometimes be got on this project for attention."
Stress Alerts
The Stress alerts program aims at identifying users who are stressed, alerting the community of thier stress and works in tandem with the Stressbusters at trying to identify causes of stress and eliminating them.
Note from the editor
Welcome to this new format of the Esperanza Newsletter, which came about during the last Advisory Council meeting - we hope you like it! The major changes are that each month, right after the Council meeting, this will be sent out and will include two featured programs and a sum up of the meeting. Also, it will be signed by all of the Advisory Council members, not just Celestianpower. Have an Esperanzial end of March, everyone!
The last AC meeting (full log)
  1. Future meetings are to be held monthly, not fortnightly as before.
  2. Bans and Access level changes (apart from autovoice) in the IRC channel are to be reported at the new log.
  3. In the IRC channel, there is going to be only one bot at a time.
  4. The charter requires members to have 150 edits and 2 weeks editing. Why this is the case will be clarified.
  5. A new Code of Conduct will be drafted by JoanneB and proposed to the Esperanza community.
  6. The NPA reform idea is to be dropped officially.
  7. Charter ammendments are to be discussed in future, not voted on.
  8. The Advisory Council is not going to be proposed to be expanded by the Advisory Council themselves, if others want to propose it, they will listen.
Signed...

Cyclical time

I do not appreciate your rude behavior. If you don't like what I am typing, let me know. I have an account and you can send me an email. My work is in progress. — Preceding unsigned comment added by riveros11 (talk • contribs)

Misplaced Pages requires that all content be verifiable and does not allow original research. If you have references that can be used to verify the content of Cyclical time that's great! But otherwise, it may not be suitable for inclusion in wikipedia. Henrik 21:35, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages survey

Hi. I'm doing a survey of Misplaced Pages editors as part of a class research project. It's quick, anonymous, and the data will be made available to the Misplaced Pages community later this month. Would you like to take part? More info here. Thanks! Nonplus 00:21, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

P-ENERGEN

I saw you're rewrite. Very nice. Do you mean I will need to add information on how to use the device? If so, are images necessary? I'll put that usage info this evening. I'll also show you info. regarding rubdown in Japan and see if this could enchance the article. jtakano (T

Yeah, that would be nice with a brief section that explained it how you actually hook up the device and use it practically. Henrik 06:42, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Just finished editing it. Please check it. Do you think this is worthy to be in wikipedia?

Great, much thanks! It might be a little bit too detailed in some places, but I can fix that. Henrik 14:55, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Revised the first intro as requested by my father. You can delete anything you think inappropriate or too wordy. James

Is it ready to be moved to article space? —-- That Guy, From That Show! 2006-03-16 11:20Z
I think it is ready now. Henrik 12:41, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

If so, who will add it to the articles space? Are there people who I need to ask permission to? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.73.165.179 (talk • contribs) 13:16 16 March 2006 (UTC)

I've commented here.  :-) Tomer 00:29, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Reworded Usage section. What else should be done? Jtakano 14:21, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Hey guys. I'm in Myrtle Bch. for Spring Break. I'll be back Sunday. If you want to move forward before then, contact the guy who deleted it (he can be found somewhere on my Talk page). Otherwise, I'll contact him when I return and we can go from there, including trying to ascertain its notability on the basis of its "google footprint" ;-). All the best, -T 165.247.178.88 01:24, 23 March 2006 (UTC) (not signed in: Tomer)

I contacted Jdoorjam but never get a reply. Why is that? Jtakano 13:53, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Henrik, with regards to its notability, below URLs shows information from other users regarding this device. Just search for "energen" 1. http://www.royalrife.com/hepatitis-c.html 2. http://www.xtrememind.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=424&sid=ae996c2190f303e24637e1a4bbc570fe 3. http://www.newmediaexplorer.org/chris/2005/10/02/dr_fr_klenners_protocol_for_multiple_sclerosis.htm 4. http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Mr_Tracys_Corner/message/52534

If you search very deeply on this Yahoo group, mostly old messages http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Mr_Tracys_Corner/messagesearch/51751?query=pyro+energen&submit=Search+More you'll find a lot of info.

Specifically this one: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/electroherbalism/message/4038

Please tell me what you think? Jtakano 13:54, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Hm. The problem with those links is that none of them really seem to meet the guidelines set out in Misplaced Pages:Reliable_sources. If there are there any japanese sources that can be considered reliable according to the guidelines, they could be used. Henrik 19:05, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

I see. I read the guidelines. How about this: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12218940&dopt=Abstract The device creates static electricity which has the same effect as the rubdown - so same results. Jtakano 02:28, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

That seems more promising, but it may be more suitable for a general "health effects of static electricity" article. But actually, we have good sources for the claims the device makes (it's right on the website) - but what we don't have are references for someone evaluating it scientifically. But I've reworded (and renamed) the criticism section now. Henrik 09:32, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Henrik, is it possible to revise the last sentence that says "illegal to sell". If it's necessary to put that sentence, I guess I cannot put it in the article space. Jtakano 04:08, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Sure. If I've misinterpreted the FDA regulations regarding devices, it should definitely be removed. Am I wrong? Henrik 21:35, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

I think in USA, this device is approved by FDA. There's a link here: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/rife-list/message/4789 Anyway, I just wanted you delete the last sentence, if that's OK? Jtakano 09:49, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Northrop Grumman

Hello Henrik. Thanks for letting me know! I think most of your changes were probably good ideas. I know I'm biased, so I don't mind at all when you help to make the text more neutral. The article is starting to look really nice! Have a great day! Sarah crane 17:17, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi again! Boy, I can't even read the stuff User:Izuko writes anymore. He's so rude and confrontational that I can't see straight. If he makes any points that are actually useful, maybe you could summarize them for me? I'll try using the preview button more. Thanks for the tip! By the way, I'm working on Raytheon now. I hope it goes a little better! Sarah crane 14:41, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
