Yes, that is with the Mediation Cabal, which is not within our work. You don't have to be a formal mediator to work for them. Have a nice night. <span style="color:red;font-weight:bold">^</span>]<sup></span>]]</sup>&nbsp;<em style="font-size:10px;">06:20, 3 May 2007 (UTC)</em>

Hi, chronological order is a good idea. Do you have a ] stating the relation between '']'' and '']''? I hoped ] would cite a source, but instead had to tag the relevant section with <nowiki>{{unreferenced}}</nowiki>.
--] 19:49, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

:I've added a ref to the article. I could find more with a little time. In any case, the relationship should be fairly transparent to anyone who has read both, and especially to one who understands the Great “Really Should” of Ayn Rand's writing. ''The Night of January the 16th'' is about the debate that she felt ''really should'' have been had about ]; ''Anthem'' is the novella that she felt Zamyatin ''really should'' have written; ''The Fountainhead'' is about a “really should” Wright; '']'' manages to be both a “really should” ''Pity My Simplicity'' and a “really should” ''Cyrano de Bergerac''; and ''Atlas Shrugged'' is about a “really should” strike (and includes a “really should” Robin Hood, in the form of Ragnar Dannesjköld). And she liked the (awful) '']'' because it was a “really should” '']''. During her early years in Hollywood, she wrote a treatment about a “really should” blackmailer. Her short story “The Simplest Thing in the World” is about a writer who proceeds very much along such lines. —] 22:29, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I was just curious as to what has happened with the exceedingly long issue on the Phi Kappa Psi membership thing. That wasn't very eloquent of me, but you understand. I thought there would be a mediation going on, but I haven't heard anything. I'd be more than willing to help out, but I hope I haven't missed anything. ] 06:45, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Request for Mediation

A Request for Mediation to which you are a party has been accepted. You can find more information on the mediation subpage, Misplaced Pages:Requests for mediation/Phi Kappa Psi.
For the Mediation Committee, ^demon
This message delivered by MediationBot, an automated bot account operated by the Mediation Committee to open new mediation cases. If you have questions about this bot, please contact the Mediation Committee directly.
This message delivered: 00:16, 27 May 2007 (UTC).

I have agreed to mediate this dispute. Please take a look at the preliminary questions at Misplaced Pages talk:Requests for mediation/Phi Kappa Psi. Thanks, WjBscribe 02:34, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

“unsourced”

  • Please don't confuse a datum lacking a footnote with one that is necessarily unsourced. (Note now that most of the article on Willem Mengelberg remains unfootnoted.)
  • Please use the {{fact}} tag, rather than summarily removing content that is-or-is-believed to be unsourced. The tag can provoke helpful edits from users who would otherwise not know that they can make a contribution, and it means that intermediate edits don't foul what should be a simple process.

yes, but there's no sense in permitting more unreferenced data just because the rest of it is unsourced. anyway the point is moot, as i provided the necessary link myself. --emerson7 | Talk 16:50, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
You provided a footnote from a source that was already provided at the end of the article (by me). Meanwhile, the rest of the article is unfootnoted, yet sourced. —SlamDiego←T 11:08, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
...same net effect. --emerson7 | Talk 11:35, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
A rather silly net effect: A footnote for the pension datum, and only for the pension datum. —SlamDiego←T 11:39, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
