| I mentioned your name at the AN thread regarding Reguyla in the context of some of my own recent discussion with him, and in terms of maybe a limited block lifting for a specific field of limited range which he might be able to help the project in. I would be very interested in your input there, both whether what I have seen is similar to what you have seen from him, and regarding your opinion regarding my proposal there. And, although no one says this enough to you, or {{ping|Worm That Turned}}, or the others who work to bring back our prodigals, thank you. ] (]) 23:37, 6 October 2015 (UTC) | |||
| *Honestly, I'm done with the topic. Swarm's comments were helpful at the end. Reguyla's actions after the unblock speak for themselves, and his comments in email had me asking him to simply never contact me again. He blew the opportunity that Worm gave him and dragged me along for the ride. Right now, I'm more than a little disappointed in a great number of people here. You aren't one of them. And to any readers, no, I don't want to discuss it further. I'm going back on wikibreak now, no replies are needed by anyone. ] - ] 01:13, 7 October 2015 (UTC) | |||

| *Not a problem ]. We both thought the risk was worth taking, and ] is core to what we do here. Unfortunately, he didn't live up to his end of the bargain, and a few have behaved poorly. We tried to do a good thing, and were slapped in the face from two directions, it would appear. I'm thinking about driving up to the mountains for the weekend, do some fishing, get away from internet access completely. I've grown a bit weary of all this drama. It makes my ongoing divorce pale in comparison. I'm looking at several options, to be honest. ] - ] 15:06, 7 October 2015 (UTC) | |||

| *::You do have a thing for curry, I've gathered. Sounds good though. I made some roasted pork, diced with pineapple chunks in a ginger glaze, and served over rice just the other day. Had a Hawaiian flare to it. Then again, Hawaiians are known to eat fried spam and pineapple sandwiches, so I'm not convinced their dinner choices qualify as ''haute cuisine''. ] - ] 15:34, 7 October 2015 (UTC) | |||
| *:::We Brits invented the curry, to disguise the flavour of rotting meat while ruling over India. Unless you've been to England and seen it for yourself you wouldn't believe the number of curry houses we have here. As for the Hawaiians, I could probably handle the fried spam, but I'd draw the line at pineapple sandwiches. Or indeed pineapple anywhere, except on top of a gammon steak. ] ] 15:43, 7 October 2015 (UTC) | |||

I used to love making traditional pork vindaloo from a recipe in a ] book; big mix of ginger, tumeric, onions, coriander, all sorts of things. Can't remember how to make it now and I'm mostly veggie these days. ] ] ] 17:53, 7 October 2015 (UTC) | |||

Palestine-Israel articles 3 arbitration case proposed decision posted
Hi Dennis Brown. A decision has been proposed in the Palestine-Israel articles 3 arbitration case, for which you are on the notification list. Please review this decision and draw the arbitrators' attention to any relevant material or statements. Comments may be brought to the attention of the committee on the proposed decision talk page. For a guide to the arbitration process, see Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Guide to arbitration. For the Arbitration Committee, L235 (t / c / ping in reply) 20:41, 14 October 2015 (UTC) (via MediaWiki message delivery (talk))
I really hate to ask
See the most recent comment at Misplaced Pages:Good article reassessment/History of Japan/1 here. Your call, possibly remembering the soon to be opened (OK, maybe soon to be opened) ArbCom case. John Carter (talk) 22:23, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
- Once I dropped my comments off at Arb, I consider myself to be no longer affiliated with the problem. I just don't have the time right now. I do check in twice a day in case any of the open Arb cases needs input, including one where I'm listed as a party for some reason. Real life is more than enough for me to deal with, and I think me acting in an administrative capacity would not be a good idea, as I'm so preoccupied in RL and can't guarantee adequate follow up here. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 22:36, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
- No problem whatsoever. Let's hope things in RL work out for the best shortly. John Carter (talk) 22:39, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
