== Reconsideration of our conversation from 11 April 2008 on my talk page. == | |||
Hello, Kingturtle. I was just organizing my talkpage archives, and I saw an old conversation that you and I had on 11 April 2008. I wanted to apologize for the negative and sour tone of my posts there, and the general bad attitude I displayed. On reviewing some of the discussions before it, I understand why I was in a bad wikimood, but I do not feel this excuses my actions. I just felt compelled to stop by and apologize. <font face="century gothic" color="#eeff00">''']''' </font><small>] ¤ ]</small> 23:55, 31 August 2008 (UTC) | |||
==Help with ] article== | |||
I spent quite a bit of time trying to clean up this article, which is about an informal term which may not even be deserving of a wiki article. The article had been heavily POV and promotional, particularly of one small rehab center (]). When one of the earlier contributors reverted all of my edits, you reverted them back. However this person reverted your revert. I suspect that this editor, ] might be a ] for ] who created the article as well as the Stone Eagle Retreat article. ] may also be the same person. I further suspect this person could have a ] with some of the articles edited. | |||
I have not been able to do a simple revert to restore the "Malibu Rehab Model" article back to just giving the basic sourced information absent all the unsourced POV and promotion, nor do I know how to go about checking the sockpuppet issue. See also a new, overlapping article created by this editor, ]. Thanks for any assistance with these issues. ] (]) 22:58, 4 September 2008 (UTC) | |||

Hello. Just to let you know that this RfC has been closed. You are welcome to read the conclusion established at the page. I am notifying you since you certified the basis for the dispute. ] 15:57, 7 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Query on Neutrality(?) policy == | |||
As I can recall wikipedias policy is to refer to countries under their legal name as it is accepted by the UN. | |||
however if one looks at the todays 7/9/08 first page/on this day section on will propably see "independence day of Republick of Macedonia"... however there is no such state as this. THE OFFICIAL NAME IS: Former Yugoslavic Republic Of Macedonia F.Y.R.O.M. | |||
May I remind you also that the are currently negotiations taking place for the removal of continuation of the "Macedonia" bit in the name. Wikipedias neutrality policy dictates that the temporary official name should be used.... | |||
If so possible I propose the creation of a bot to undertake the job of fixing this isue. | |||
As unimportand as it might seam to you: | |||
1)it is a breach of the wikipedias neutrality policy | |||
2) it is malinforming and incorrect | |||
3) it means a great deal for the current countries in the dispute | |||
4) it is disrespectfull towards the citizens of those countries and the UN | |||
thank you very much for your attention | |||

== You saw it here first == | |||
Kingturtle, This is just a friendly notice since you involved yourself in the discussion of my biography in Misplaced Pages. | |||
Finding my biography in Misplaced Pages two years after it existed, was a great and joyous surprise for me. It is in fact my first foray into the Public Domain in 11 years, since my last attempt at elective office. Everything I have contributed to this site, all the discussions with all the Administrators, is self published material in a public forum. | |||
The mainline media, CNN in particular, is portraying the current economic crisis in Apocalyptic terms and totally unexpected. The record bares witness that on July 3 I made this statement in Ground Zero talk: | |||
'''The global system is just entering the time when this line from Rev.18 will be seen and believed: And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buys their merchandise any more.''' | |||
This is the financial crisis. | |||
Peace | |||

Heya King! | |||
I noted that you recently reverted a section of this list. | |||
That part of the list was included because there are numerous sources that do not recognize records set before 1901. There are historians that do not recognize those records. That listing was a compromise between the various sources as a way of heading off challenges that may be posed by many well-meaning editors using sources that do not include pre-1901 sources. Not to mention, many historians do list separate records. | |||

Dear Turtle: Please reconsider the deletion of the entry. The entry is a legitimate bio of a published author and descriptor of a new book which is legitimately displayed on amazon and barnes nobels. If anything in the entry is 'blatant', please let me know what should be deleted to allow it. Like any author and thought leader, I think I have the right to appear. It is not an attempt to advertise but to inform. Will consider revision as you recommend. | |||
I have been updating the defense funding amount for Luigi Mangione, which is now more than $208,000 as of December 25. The source is the GiveSendGo page itself, which I have been providing as a citation. | |||

Hi. I noticed that you protected this page, due to some irregular edits. I looked into the history a bit, and it seems that there is some sourced material that was improperly removed, and I'd like to re-add it, in a properly formatted and cited manner. | |||

- In remembrance of the recent tragedies experienced by LGBTQ youth and the struggles faced by LGBTQ people everywhere, I've added an equal sign to my signature to raise awareness, emphasize my commitment to social justice, and identify myself as an ally. Please join me by adding an = to your signature.
- Please note: Most of my replies will be written on this talk page, rather than on your talk page.
- Also note: It is my policy not to delete or remove dialog from this page. Everything (except some spam) will be saved and archived. Please don't later remove from here what you've written. So think first before you hit Save page.
- If I do not reply to you immediately, it is not because I am ignoring you; I might be in the middle of a project on or offline :)
- If and when we disagree, it is never personal. I respect you.
- If you're thinking about retiring, *please* talk to me first either here, IRC or email, so I can dissuade you and help solve what's needling you.
- Lastly, a note to banned users who stop by: Stop editing immediately, serve your sentence, and then come back and play nice. I will gladly welcome you back and collaborate with you - once you've served your time properly, and as long as you act accordingly.
Your time signature is incorrect
