| Hello Ideogram, | |||
| Sorry I edited the portal page after you left your message in the discussion section. All I did was revert the page back to an earlier version (last version prior to three edits by ] and added the POV template at the top of the portal page with information that mediation and page-move protection has been requested with more info in the talk page.

I've sent you an email, but I also wanted to post a quick note here as well to ask look at my reply ] and see what your thoughts are, and to tell me if I'm doing everything ok, and everything is in order. This whole thing's pretty worring in case I should be putting stuff in other places or if i'm doing things totally wrong without knowing any better (that's why I'm so happy to have someone so experienced to help me with this)!

| Hey, thanks for doing such a great job on the Portal:Taiwan situation while I was asleep. I don't know what those two would have done to eachother if you hadn't been there ;) I see that you asked Cowman to take a look at the situation, which I think is a good idea. Maybe he can look at this from a different angle. I know I've said this before, but I'm really thankful to have you with me on this one. ]]] (]) 10:03, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||

| :Actually I feel bad because I was getting frustrated with Chiang Kai-shek and didn't know what to say. Sometimes I lose patience and need someone else to help; I think I mediate better in a team. I think you are taking the right approach with a light touch. I'm going to hang back and let you drive for a while. ] 10:06, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::Now that I've got my coffee down my, and had some rest, I feel fine to drive (LOL). Serriously though, don't feel bad. It can be hard when what seems like a perfectly good suggestion gets rejected, but I guess we'll have to keep at it. What a case to take on as your first though, I'm getting a little lost in chinese politics in some parts of the discussion. Phew! ]]] (]) 10:13, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :::I'm pretty familiar with the politics of the situation. Chiang Kai-shek is a zealous Kuomintang member, who believes the Republic of China is the rightful ruler of all of China and that China should not be divided. He appears to think Nrtm81 is some kind of pro-independence nutcase, thus the constant warring over the symbolic color green, the color of the pro-independence party. What is ironic is that Nrtm81 keeps protesting that he originally wanted it to be Portal:ROC also, and that he picked the color for non-political reasons, implying that he is not at all pro-independence as Chiang Kai-shek keeps accusing him. | |||
| :::I would suggest that you (a) get Nrtm81 to agree to change the color of the page, since this should not be a big deal for him and it will remove one bone of contention (b) try to convince Chiang Kai-shek that Nrtm81 is not pro-independence and they actually have a lot in common. You might be able to get some help from ] who is also pro-Kuomintang and friendly with Chiang Kai-shek but seems to understand Nrtm81's point. ] 10:28, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::::Thanks for the mini-politics lesson ;) It's helped my understand somewhat. As for getting Nrtm81 to change the colour, I'm asking him about it on the portal talk, so we'll see what he says. As for getting BlueShirts involved, I would prefer it if we could sort this out just between Chiang Kai-shek and Nrtm81. However, if we get nowhere, it might be the best course of action to call in BlueShirts and Captain0 for comments. ]]] (]) 10:48, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :::::Generally Misplaced Pages policy is to encourage as many people to participate as possible because reaching a broader consensus is always better. It is no use to reach a consensus between two people first because you will have to start all over again for each new person that weighs in. ] 10:53, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::::::Stupid me! You are of course right. I've left a message on Captain0's page directing him towards the discussion, and will go and do the same with BlueShirts. Good idea about archiving BTW, the portal talk was really messy! ]]] (]) 11:43, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :::::::I'm starting to think you're right in you're assesment of Chiang Kai-shek. Look at his most recent comments on Portal talk:Taiwan. I'm going to leave Cowman a message asking for comment. ]]] (]) 12:18, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| Sorry for jumping in but I think input from Captain0 would greatly help because he was the person to convince me about the name being "Portal:Taiwan" (I was skeptical about his points for a while though. So I was in Chiang Kai-shek's position before. Though I don't think Chiang Kai-shek wants to accept the simple fact that leaving out a political tag avoids the problems that is now arising. "Portal:Taiwan avoids political dispute. And for the political dispute, it is in the Category box section of the portal. Since it covers issues over Taiwan (ROC, PRC, Independence, Aborigine self-rule). Chiang Kai-shek's insistance on tagging "ROC" to the portal name will only fuel more fighting because there are people who are for/against ROC/PRC/Independence of Taiwan. Leaving it as "Portal:Taiwan" avoids all this mess and people can find these differences in beliefs/opinions via the portal. — ] 15:15, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :Please don't bring the debate here. (1) This page is really for us mediators to discuss among ourselves. (2) We are supposed to be neutral so it doesn't help to try to convince us. (3) All debate should really be on the Portal talk page. ] 15:19, 22 June 2006 (UTC) | |||

| == Greg Bravo (Gary Scott) == | |||
| In tandem with the infamous ] article, I have revised the article on the ] so as to leave no question that Greg Bravo had nothing to do with the original song. I have added the discography, a list of the musicians in the original 45 recording and the LP, and the verifiable sources that I used. I also corrected the information about where the musicians (both the original trio and the subsequent touring band) were from. They were all from Bridgeport, CT and not NYC although they did record in NYC. As can be expected my edited version has been revised back to a version that Greg Bravo/Musicknight/Countdewiki/Rock_and_Soul_Patrol, etc. would find compatible with his hoax. He has also removed the sources (newspaper article, Billboard books). I have reverted it back twice but after the last anonymous revision back to the Greg Bravo-compatible edit, I gave up. I have left a note on the talk page asking for an explanation but have not received a response. Could you advise me on how to proceed? Should this page be protected as well? | |||
| I think it is clear that Greg Bravo (or friends) has written his own article and at least some of the linked articles. A version of the ] article (he was the guitarist for Vanilla Fudge) notes in the first sentence that Martell had also participated in humanitarian efforts with Greg Bravo, with links to the Bravo article. Even if true, it is sort of an odd non-sequitur. Another musician that Musicknight etc has alluded to in his rants on the Bravo talk pages is ]. That article also has a link to the Bravo article, claiming that Bravo was a back-up singer. (The Scott article doesn't mention any of the other musicians, however.) I looked up Freddie Scott and he is a pretty well known solo artist. I've surmised that Bravo may be friends with some bona fide musicians but he himself doesn't have his own work to support his claim to fame. Or maybe he's not friends with them at all and is just depending on them not to have the time or inclination to look themselves up on the internet. I think that's exactly what Bravo/Musicknight is depending on when he is claiming "Na Na Hey Hey" as his own. When two out of three of the original musicians are alive and living not to far from his base of "Operations", I'd have to say he's got some chutzpah!!--] 12:25, 23 June 2006 (UTC) | |||

Hello and welcome
Hello Ideogram, Welcome to Misplaced Pages.
Thank you for the very kind message you left for me. It came as a very pleasant and welcome surprise. I think Misplaced Pages has a lot of potential, although it has its detractors, but I'm glad you've decided to make up your own mind about it and the best way to do that is to get involved. In the long run things usually work out well, and there are lot of very capable and dedicated editors here that ensure the integrity of the project is protected as much as possible. (The abilities of the various monkeys here are diverse but the mix seems to work.) Please let me know if there's anything you ever need help with and I look forward to hearing from you. Once again, welcome! Rossrs 00:01, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi Ideogram,
You classified a number of articles as "top-importance". A few months ago I went through Category:Top-importance Computer science articles and made sure all the articles in there where truly of top importance. Although there undoubtedly still a few articles missing, I don't think this category should exceed 100 articles. Could you double check to see if the articles you added (such as Compile time) are really as important as Alan Turing or the ubiquitous quicksort, as opposed to simply of high importance (which in turn probably shouldn't exceed a 1000 articles).

Birthright Israel
Hello,
I think there needs to be mediation on the Birthright Israel page. There seem to be several issues but the most important can be found on talk page under controversy. I invite you to take the opportunity to read through what has been said, and would really appreciate you weighing in. As I am on the newer side, I wanted some mediation for responding to those who seem to want to keep the article, what I would call, biased. Yaakov Birthright Franklin (talk) 01:17, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
