Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 01:56, 20 October 2005

Hi Isotope23, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines. First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette. Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing ~~~~.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame) June 29, 2005 14:41 (UTC)

Thanks

Thank you for reverting the vandalism to my user page. It's greatly appreciated! --Alan Au 20:47, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Sam Sloan already went through a vfd

I23: The Sam Sloan page already went through a vfd and survived. It has gone through its ups and downs in POV (Bill Brock and myself, A.W. Morrow), but basically the vfd it went through already still seems to apply: it survived. I am going to remove your vfd for now. 69.181.82.221 23:54, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Heh heh

I was trying to be nice... I've known band that played a series of towns <2 hours away from their home and considered it a "tour".--Isotope23 20:41, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

Heh heh. I don't doubt it. In my book, those are exactly the kinds of bands that are problems, because they misrepresent their own significance when they make their articles about themselves. Some bands who live near borders may play in more than one country frequently, next people will be calling that an "international tour". ;-) Friday (talk) 20:59, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

NGC 3031

Thank you for your positive feedback.

The myspace link actually has an mp3 streamer which can be downloaded from. All other hosting sites I have hosted the songs with often require registering with an obscure website, so I leave those links alone. If you are really interested and cannot get the songs(plus several others that are not there) I could send them to your email in a zipped folder. The0208 21:30, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

Ecclesiastical State

Hey Isotope, I wanted to talk to you about your comment on the deletion of Ecclesiastical State. You said delete, which I basically agree with you, but you also argued (partically) for redirecting to Ecclesiastical government. Any chance I can convince you to change your vote to a redirect? I also liked your comment about locking it so the article can't be recreated. I've been dealing with this one for awhile (if you look at the edits and the talk page you'll see my comments). Anyway, hoping I can persuade you to slightly alter your vote. Thanks! Davidpdx 9/25/05 11:26 (UTC)

Master memes

You asked:

So by definition if the OS 0 1 2 article gets deleted from Misplaced Pages does that mean it's been defeated and is thus no longer a master meme or is this page considered an irrational exchange?--Isotope23 20:39, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

I can answer that one myself. It's easy. By definition it is a master meme and cannot be defeated in rational exchange. Therefore, if it is deleted, it proves that the AfD discussion was not a rational exchange.

The only question I have is: what happens when an irresistible master meme meets an immovable logic? Dpbsmith (talk) 22:18, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Thank you

I thought I had perhaps slipped a cog in nominating this. - brenneman 23:16, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

'VfU'

Could you give an unbiased opinion on Seduction Community which is now VfU. This relates to the AfD debate on David DeAngelo. I think the most objective way to cover this area would be with a general article on the entire subject without links to commercial sites. It would be up to the WP community whether to address individual figures within the community. I think references to media coverage would be enough external linking. Let me know what you think.

Re: Thanks

You're welcome! I must say it was one of the more creative vandals that I ran into that day :-) --JoanneB 13:11, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I've rewritten this article and would appreciate it if you could cast an eye over the result. Dlyons493 Talk 22:38, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Bryants etc.

Liked your approach on the Bryant afd. Good work. AndyJones 23:23, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Domestic virtue

This article has been expanded considerably. I urge you to take a look at it and reconsider your delete vote. Thanks. Denni☯ 05:03, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Negative Zero

Hi there, do reconsider your vote on AfD for -0. Negative zeroes occur in one-complement arithmetic. Please check out this link! Pilatus 00:53, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

Dominion of Melchizedek

May I burden you with working on this subject? I joined the fray with Johnski to try to counterbalance the opposition from Gene Pooley and Davidpbx for a better article. From your efforts thus far on related subjects, it appears you are better suited to write something between the two points, which seem to have consensus on some points. It seems that Johnski's arguments are based on an real effort at removing bias, but he may be adding some of his own.207.47.122.10 01:56, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
