'''Tell me if I do something stupid.'''

It has come to my attention that the Talk link in my signature was nonfunctional for some time, possibly since its creation. Now that it's working, please '''tell me''' if I screw up anything else.

Thank you. (Special thanks to ] for mentioning the problem.)

Tell me if I do something stupid.

It has come to my attention that the Talk link in my signature was nonfunctional for some time, possibly since its creation. Now that it's working, please tell me if I screw up anything else.

Thank you. (Special thanks to Rholton for mentioning the problem.)

Your comments on WP:VFD/Operating system advocacy

Iasson has an RfC running against him. While I and apparently many others are as frustrated with him as you seem to be, it's not at clear that he's acting in bad faith. Of particular note is that English is not his first language. If, as it seems, he's acting in good faith, then a deep breath and some comments at the RfC are the way to go. On the other hand, if he's just trolling, then responses like yours are exactly what he's after. —Korath (Talk) 21:58, Jan 17, 2005 (UTC)

Consensus Science

Hi. Could you take a look at the recent edits I made to consensus science and consider changing your merge/deletion vote? I believe the new version more accurately describes the clear divide between the two concepts, and adheres more closely toward NPOV. Thanks. Cortonin | Talk 09:25, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Niles Eldredge

'Directly'? 'Lifted'? My good man, what are you saying? However, thank you for the URL to Eldredge's own web site. I could find no reference anywhere to his DoB, but you supplied a suitable source of information! :)

I've shined it up a bit, explained some stuff in simpler terms, and removed the reference to Eldredge's eternal battle with the Creationists, as it's not very interesting. Toodle-ooh. sugarfish 23:59, Feb 2, 2005 (UTC)

Chechnya issue

Thanks for a piece of advice.

Although, I think the dispute this way only widened to the new space of Wiki. I don't quite think the opponents are about to agree even on the determination of the nature of this so called dispute. BBC viewpoints

Just compare:Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment

My explanatory text: The other Wiki's Chechnya articles are related to this one. The Article 'Second Chechen War' and the impartial Analyses and Reports resume deserves professional writing due to the sensitive political situation and Genocide topically on the spot.

Pnikolov's invert: NPOV and inclusion dispute.

Topically, who's to tell how to write NPOVwise about such as evidently imminent state terrorism and genocide among one minor defenceless people?--BIR 07:36, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Your comment on my talk page

Hello! Regarding my tagging, I probably had just then tagged several obvious GFDL's and automatically tagged it as one. On the router bits, I could have easily doen a replacement in Microsoft Word, and the description made it look homemade. Thanks, Bart133 (t) 01:27, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

VFD questions

Hi, TenOfAllTrades-- You asked a few questions on the VFD page for my Misplaced Pages entry. I'm responding here rather than there because it doesn't really seem appropriate for me to participate directly in the debate any more than I already have. Feel free to repost any of the following or to ignore it completely, as you deem fit.

  • " How many episodes of Dennis Miller Live did he write? Was he a significant contributor?"
    • I was a staff writer on the show from Jan 2000-August 2003. I was part of a team of 8-10 staff writers (depending on the season), which collectively wrote every one of the 75 episodes during those three years.
  • "Is he a Joss Whedon, or anything close?"
    • If by "a Joss Whedon," you mean "a guy with the initials JW who has written for TV," then the answer is unquestionable "Yes." For pretty much any other interpretation of "a Joss Whedon," the answer is "Dear God, no." Whedon is a one of the greatest TV writers in the history of the medium, and I have a feeling he is ultimately going to be remembered as a major writer/director. I, on the other hand, am basically just some guy who writes for a living. Whedon is unquestionably notable enough for inclusion; whether I am depends on your definition of "notable," and I'm probably a borderline case either way.

I am an idiot

I just realized I wrote "August 2003". I meant "August 2002." My apologies. --Jacobw 18:47, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments. I have heeded them. I posted a reply on my talk page, and would appreciate your additional feedback.

By the way, your sig's talk link does not work properly. Did you customize it? -Rholton 16:22, Mar 6, 2005 (UTC)
