Jack, I don't believe you are right in your interpretation. The original research page does not rule out deductive reasoning, the example given is not deductive reasoning. I will get other people's opinion on this. ] 15:26, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

::Jack, you totally misread me. I would prefer the lists were deleted as I don't see how what country one of your forebears comes from has anything to do with with what these people are famous for (although it may in a few cases). But as long as they exist we should not be subjective about who is or is not included by being picky about words. ] 15:47, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

:It looks like you are right - so thanks for noticing that. Weird that the magazine made such an error. However, the paragraph that you deleted had some relevant and properly sourced info, so I ought to restore part of it. BTW, I am going to submit this to FA status very soon. Do you have any thoughts on possible improvements/etc.? Appreciated ] 05:17, 1 July 2006 (UTC)''
::It's a fashion magazine. I wouldn't expect them to get everything right when it comes to music (they may even have been taken in by the info on Misplaced Pages). I personally wouldn't re-add it until something official is announced. I'm not really a fan of Mandy Moore myself and I only started keeping an eye on the article when a vandal I was chasing started goofing with it. I do think that the magazine cover scan in the infobox may prove to be a copyright problem in the context it's used in though... --] 19:29, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

==aight==
well I'mma look it up cuz lots of french jews moved to the us before the war. But trust me the last name Lyone is definitely not jewish and most likely french. I'll look my sources but thanks for precising before editing, I apprreciated. And actually thanks for launching a debate on these french americans, but you've removed way too many. Time to write some back, I've spent the last two years on working on this project. (though it was for my university).
take care buddy ] 20:14, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

leblanc has french ancestry. he's a french-american. his last name is french. What's a french-american anyway? It's like what's an american? nothing they all come from somewhere in Europe. Matt LeBlanc is a french-american! ] 20:15, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

== From Isis ==

Yes, Mad Jack - I know. Just trying to interject some humour here; too much tension. :)

== Women lawyers ==

It does, indeed, exist. I've added a few people in the past, and I just checked Allred and saw she wasn't listed, which is a bit unusual. ] 07:32, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
:Well, I think it's more significant to have a women lawyers category, as it wasn't common for women to practice law in large numbers until recently. If we had a men lawyers category, who knows how many hundreds we would have listed. ] 07:35, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
::Yes, that's very true...In today's society, sexism and whatnot can be twisted in either way...For example, giving up your seat while waiting for a table at a restaurant may be viewed as merely doing it because she's a female, and not doing it may make you look anti-female. The world has gone mad. ] 07:44, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Jack, please at least try and act civily, you do not own these lists however much work you have put into them. ] 09:21, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. You're absolutely right, of course. ]<sup><small><font color="DarkGreen">]</font></small></sup> 00:05, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

==Rudy Perpich==
I have re-added ] to ]. If the source I have cited in the article is insufficient, please read my comments on the article's Talk page in which I have cited a second source providing further justification for Perpich's inclusion in the article. --] 02:08, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes, well, it was a pretty weird fact, lol. ] 07:06, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
:I see. I'm working on the women lawyers...Having to rake through about twenty pages of names (mostly male) on just the American lawyers page is more time-consuming than one might imagine. Then, of course, there's no alphabetical order in the cats...Well, I'd best get back to work. Twenty-two more letters in the alphabet to go, lol. ] 07:11, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
::Finally, I got through all of the American lawyers, adding the females to the Women lawyers cat. Now, tomorrow I shall begin with women lawyers from other nations. It's 5:00 AM, and I should really be in bed. ] 08:59, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

== category links ==

Wiki is very inconsistent (surprise, surprise) in how to handle category links for articles and categories where both have the same name (such as Lincoln). Not only true for bio articles, but also other types of articles. Is there policy guidance on this? If there is policy, is it clear and unambiguous. If not, something should be proposed and approval obtained as there are many article/category with links in one or other (either may be wrong) and with links in both article and category (usually not helpful). Thanks ] 16:35, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

: I was not questioning your change to Lincoln, I just looked at Lincoln and saw more possibles for change and have been noting this problem in lots of articles/categories I have looked at in the past several weeks. I had no good idea where the links should be so I did not touch most of them yet and wondered about policy help. Thanks ] 16:50, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

==Deepwater==
Shouldn't ] be considered a 2005 film since it was screened at at least two film festivals in June 2005? I'm not quite sure what Misplaced Pages goes by, but IMDb has it as 2005...-] 17:41, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
:As long as you have some sort of method, I'll go with it, becuase it works for me...-] 18:13, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

==abdel kweli==
my article was named American of French descent not French-Americans. ] 15:04, 5 July 2006 (UTC)


thanks for answering kindly and debating with arguments. I really liked your last message, I guess it's easier to work hands in hands. In the case that you can't confirm how ("much") french someone is, how can you confirm how "much" nationality most americans are? It's more of a debating question, not an aggressive question and I know wikipedia is not the place to debate this but it should be. anyway take care and good luck ] 17:02, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

==Killer Diller==
Just wanted to let you know I wrote articles on '']'' and ], the author of the original novel on which the film is based. Just wanted to "complete" Lucas' filmography.-] 17:05, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

== fansites ==

Eh, its all good. I'm having delightful fun removing crap, and most fansites are really just total brownnosing BS. Please do replace a link that I shouldn't have deleted, but I feel most of them shouldn't be linked here at all. ] 21:19, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

==Irish==
Jayjg and GN disagree with your interpretation as they specifically say that they must be sourced as "Irish-American" not Irish. ] 00:05, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
