MedCabal

Hi, we have a heavy backload of cases at WP:MEDCAB and since you are on the mediator list I thought I would request your help. Thanks! --Ideogram 10:52, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Title Paragraph

Hi, I would like to write up a new article as wikipedia:titleparagraphs. I'd appreciate your assistance. Title paragraphs often called 'opening' paragraphs in the literary world are very important to seize readers’ attention and encourage them to read on. Title paragraphcs need to be written in a surmising style in as few concise but detailed sentences as possible.

Notice the difference between this article and this one. A remarkable difference. Are you going to read the a whole title paragraph like that for every article you look up? Long title paragraphs deter users who are simply surfing or frantically looking for the low down of a specific subject at handm, they are also a pleasure for the serious researcher.

Unfortunately this is not a guideline. I think editors should be advised about this point and I would feel privileged to start the article. Please let me know how I could go about it. Thanks

Concordia council

Dear Ian,

Not really. I'd be willing to hold a semi-active seat, perhaps with just an advisory role over a voting one.

Still, I believe Concordia should be disbanded. (not the spirit, I know).

Thanks,

RE:Concordia

I'd be happy to resume an active role in the organisation if it is revived - • The Giant Puffin • 22:09, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Yeah. --Osbus 22:27, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Would you mind letting me know what you have in mind? (Paranomasia not intended.) (^'-')^ Covington 08:14, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

I am just looking to re-promote civility. I would send out a newsletter to all of our members inviting them to help out. We could promote the civility cup token and barnstar to make us known more widely, and try and get an effective noticeboard for where help may be needed in maintaining civility (this could be small, and people make sugestions on the notice board and admins post). Ian¹³/t 09:45, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Let me know when you are starting up. I am busy this week, but after that, I should be open. (^'-')^ Covington 12:56, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Haven't seen you around since long. — Nearly Headless Nick 08:51, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Aye, I have been on a bit of a WikiBreak. Ian¹³/t 18:20, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Welcome back. We need more hard-working people around. Cheers. — Nearly Headless Nick 13:00, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Concordia Newsletter

NEWSLETTER

Concordia is currently trying to relaunch. I, and all the members of the ex-council, wish to welcome new members to the group. We are a group who aim to promote remaining civil, in an environment where messages can easily be interpretated wrongly.

Help out now!

• Try and help people remain civil! Talk to them, and help them in any way possible. Do not be afraid to use the talk page.
• Give people the Civility Barnstar.
• Make and spread some Wikitokens so people know there are people to help if they want assistance.
• Add banners or logos to your userpage to show your support.
• Suggest some ideas! Add 'em to the talk page.

We are a community, so can only work though community contributions and support. It's the helping that counts.

Decision Making

The council expired one month ago, but due to the current position of the group the current council will remain until the position of the group can be assessed, and whether it would be sensible to keep Concordia going. For most decisions, however, it will be decided by all who choose to partake in discussions. I am trying to relaunch because of the vast amounts of new members we have received, demonstrating that the aims are supported.

If you wish to opt of of further talk-page communications, just let us know here.

User:Sussexman

Thank you for your comment on this user's Talk page, but I cannot see where he personally issued a legal action or why he personally would have done so? Chelsea Tory 20:44, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, as far as I was aware, this was the whole reason for blocking, and from what I gathered, such a notice was not in dispute. Ian¹³/t 21:30, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Merry Christmas

I just wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas -- UKPhoenix79 25 December 2006

Undeletion Discussion for G.ho.st

An editor has asked for a deletion review of G.ho.st. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. TareqM 19:15, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Concordia

Hey. My time is vastly diminished by school, so I don't think I'll be able to serve on the Concordia council. I might pop in once in a while. Thanks — Ilyanep (Talk) 01:23, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Could you review my user page?

Could you review my user page and help me determine why the userbox notice is gumming up the look of it? Thanks, Scienter 18:58, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

This edit broke your userpage (and lots of other peoples). I have now reverted the edit. Thanks for pointing it out - because there was probably a lot of confused people out there. Ian¹³/t 19:18, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much! I appreciate your timely help. Salud, Scienter 20:32, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Şebinkarahisar

Ben bu topraklarda Şebinkarahisar da yaşıyorum bu topraklada doğdum bu topraklarda büyüdüm ve neler yaşandığını sizlerden daha iyi biliyorum ama benim şehrimin benim yaşadığım yerin tarihinin yanlış taraflı ve lobicilik faaliyetleri içerisinde insalara olmayan bir şeyi sahte, asılsız ve düzmece kaynakları sunarak olmuş gibi göstererek anlatılmasını önleyemiyorum banlanıyorum yada Şebinkarahisar maddesi kilitleriniyor. Sizler bu topraklarda yaşadınızmı da biliyorsunuz ? Ermeni Diasporası tarihi istedikleri gibi yazabilir mi ? Ellerinde yetkileri var diye bu yetkilerini kendi çıkarları için kullanabilirler mi ? Neden tüm Türk sayfalarına sadece asılsız ermeni soykırımı hakkında bilgiler ekliyorlar Vikipedia tarafsız ve özgür ansiklopedi değilmi ? Madem bu admin arkadaşalar çok bilgili neden coğrafi, ekonomik, nüfus bilgilerini insanlar için faydalı olacak bilgileri girmiyorlarda sadece asılsız ermeni soykırımı hakkında bilgiler veriyorlar. BU HAKKI NEREDEN BULUYORLAR ? --88.231.200.89 10:25, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

I am sorry, I am unable to read Turkish. Ian¹³/t 12:28, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

It appears you seem to be mistaking Dog cicero (talk · contribs) for Cicero Dog (talk · contribs). It's an easy mistake to make but there seems no reason why Dog Cicero should be blocked - only made to change names. CDMS 15:38, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Check user procedure

You recently compiled and listed a case at requests for checkuser. A checkuser or clerk has requested you supply one or more diffs to justify the use of the checkuser procedure in the case, in accordance with the procedures listed in the table at the top of the requests for checkuser page. For an outcome to be achieved, we require that you provide these diffs as soon as possible. This has been implemented to reduce difficulties for checkusers, and is essential for your case to be processed. A link to your recently-created case which has this information missing is here. Thanks for your co-operation. -- lucasbfr 15:55, 16 April 2007 (UTC), checkuser clerk.

I have not idea why you suggest I am involved. CDMS 18:07, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

I am just curious as to why a very new user would spend most of his time concerned with such a case. You appear to have quite a developed wiki knowledge (yes, this is your second account I believe) but I just wondered why you were interested in a case where one admin has blocked, and 3 others refused an unblock request.

I saw your interest on Misplaced Pages:Meetup/Manchester ... another is being organised at Misplaced Pages:Meetup/Manchester 2, hope you aren't too busy and can come! :) Majorly (hot!) 00:33, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
