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)

I've replied here. --Blackcap | talk 18:33, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
Found Discuss
I look at those homepages and mess up thinking they look like talk. Thanks for reminding me, I do know better. That pic problem, is I uploaded to WikiCommons but they did not display. So I uploaded in Misplaced Pages which is the secondary choice. Last night the pic displayed, but today using Mozilla it does not, but if I click on it I go to the page saved....Thanks for the category work, I havent got involved in that yet...Kyle Andrew Brown 20:15, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

Questions about Spice Girls article
Since you peer reviewed my request, I would like to ask you a few questions.
- For a long time I have been searching for sources that claim the Spice Girls as the biggest-selling girl group in the world. Believe it or not, this search has come up unsuccessful, even on numerous fansites.
- Geri Halliwell was extremely shocked about Playboy publishing nude photographs of her. I've also found this search quite difficult, as there is no particular source that actually describes her anger—I only heard this news on the television back when the Spice Girls were, the only thing people wanted to socialize about. Is it possible for something to slide without a reference?
- Finally, I can't reword the part in the "The beginning" section. I understand what you mean by it sounding like someone was living with the five girls, but it's difficult to fix the sentence.
Could you help me with these three issues? --64.231.64.133 13:08, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
