Hi Nick, I noticed you recently removed a YouTube link from the '']'' article. Most of the YouTube links were removed from this series of articles a while ago because they lacked copyright information, but the one you removed does have copyright information. It's at the end of the video and says "© Al Coritz 2006, Deadly Beautiful Zoological, LLC." Did you accidentally not notice this, or is this copyright information not good enough? If not, what's missing? --] 16:03, 18 December 2006 (UTC) Hi Nick, I noticed you recently removed a YouTube link from the '']'' article.

I prefer to keep discussions unfragmented.
  • If I post on your talk page, I will notice any replies posted there.
  • Unless you request otherwise, I will reply here to comments made here.
  • I will usually post a brief note on your talk page to let you know that I have replied, unless your talk page instructs me otherwise.
  • If you write a reply to me here, I may decide to move your text back to your talk page in an effort to keep the thread in one place.
  • If you are just pointing out something written to me elsewhere, edit here.
  • Such pointers are useful if you've written to a comment I made many days ago.
  • My user talk page is archived automatically by Werdnabot, so

User talk:Jimbo Wales unprotection

Would you object to this page being un-semi-protected? --Sam Blanning 02:53, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Ofcourse not. — Nearly Headless Nick 11:38, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Strange deletion

On what grounds did you delete Pingus? The deletion debate certainly shows no consensus for deletion. The game is notable and has been mentioned in several high profile publications, including even CNN .--Eloquence* 00:04, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

I apologise for the inconvenience. I have undeleted the article. — Nearly Headless Nick 11:34, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
Thank you! :-) --Eloquence*

Thank you for voting

File:In-the-dark.jpg Thank you for voting in my RfA which at 51/20/6 unfortunately did not achieve consensus. In closing the nomination, Essjay remarked that it was one of the better discussed RfAs seen recently and I would like to thank you and all others who chose to vote for making it as such. It was extremely humbling to see the large number of support votes, and the number of oppose votes and comments will help me to become stronger. I hope to run again for adminship soon. Thank you all once more. Wikiwoohoo 19:48, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

Hi, Thanks for removing the protection on the India page! This, as you well know, is a mixed blessing. :) ]] 16:35, 12 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.

Re WP:SIG

Lot of grammar-nazis on Misplaced Pages! What say? ^_^ Nearly Headless Nick 13:18, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
Lol! Well, it doesn't matter to me. On my userpage I got big red heading which says correct me if I am wrong. -- Szvest - 15:31, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
Thanks again :) -- Szvest - 14:39, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Pinguis DRV

When you take action on a DRV discussion, you can simply close it, no reason to keep it open. ~ trialsanderrors 23:28, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

User talk:Dakshayani

This user's ben asking for unblock for over a day now; could you respond to him? Thanks. Part Deux 20:13, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Barrington Hall

Please do not delete sections of text or valid links from Misplaced Pages articles, as you did to Barrington Hall. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. See the discussion on the Talk:Barrington Hall page - you are incorrectly interpreting the policy. Argyriou (talk) 15:54, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Kindly review the concerned guideline and revert yourself. Also your warning, to a edit made in good faith came as unwarranted. — Nearly Headless Nick 16:04, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
Also, the YouTube links are not reliable sources as any person with an internet connection can upload any kind of file over their website. Many of the vidoes uploaded are copyrighted by their respective owners and links to those should not be used on Misplaced Pages. — Nearly Headless Nick 16:08, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Bitis arietans YouTube link removal
