Frisbetarian

Hi. Your low return of Google hits for Frisbetarian is a result of the author's spelling error, not lack of notability. "Frisbeetarianism" gets 17,100 Google hits. Cheers! -- BDAbramson 12:50, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

You are exactly right; I've changed my vote to Rename. Thanks! Bunchofgrapes 14:53, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Deletion reform/Proposals/Speedy delete for pages with no citations

I've commented on your proposal. While it does look good from a researcher's perspective, I don't think it's that good for the encyclopedia's organic growth; you might want to look at my comments there and see if you can get some other users' suggestions also. I do think that the encyclopedia should have more citations/ext links/etc., but I think that should be part of the growth process of an article; to most of the editors here, creating a new article is often just laying the groundwork, and then the other editors help build it up. --Idont Havaname 19:21, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

Ice-9

You are welcome. A google search on Ice-9 + metaphor turns up that link as one of the first few. I had actually found it before, when i was doing the first re-write, but failed to include a link. I should have. 17:43, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

Phatmass

If you look at the Google search results for phatmass, there are actually only 71 unique hits. Since that seemed to be what you based your vote on, I though you might want reconsider. --Icelight 17:35, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Fake color articles

Because of the complexity of the vote at the above AfD, I have attempted to break down the individual votes on the AfD talk page. If I have misunderstood your vote with respect to any of these, please correct it. Cheers! -- BDAbramson 12:54, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

"Flourished"

The word "flourished" (or abbrev "fl.") is used when we really really don't have any concrete info about the life of a person. Oftentimes it means there is only one or two dateable references in the person's works, and so for instance Flavius Caper's actual lifespan might not intersect the 2nd century by more than a couple years, or not at all. So instead of long and complicated caveats about possible lifespans, we say "flourished". This can sometimes be used with a year, so if an author says "I myself saw the eruption of Vesuvius" but we have no further info, we say "flourished ca 79 AD". Stan 18:28, 29 September 2005 (UTC)

Wasabi

That article looks immeasurably better after you edited it. Nice job! Joyous (talk) 17:27, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
