Homophobia

What has Seagaliana got to do with homophobia? Tom 21:42, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

--if you see many of his movies, he often makes the analogy between his character's (alter ego's) investigative / law enforcement activities and male-on-male sexual assault. --65.9.9.249 23:55, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

You may be better able to develop this one...

I started an article on Laeliinae, as it was in Misplaced Pages:Most wanted articles - the current content exhausts my knowledge on the subject, tho. Care to have a crack at expanding it? BDAbramson T 19:41, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

• BDA, your picture must appear on the dictionary page for "renaissance man." ;) I'll give it a try, although orchids are not my forte. --Ghetteaux 18:52, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Re: My On Deadly Ground edit

Thank you. GeorgeC 20:27, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Nagin quote

As Ray Nagin's full quote of his "explanation" of his Chocolate City remarks claims he was talking about a "delicious drink", I wish you hadn't assumed it refered to milk chocolate and modified various articles under that assumption without looking up the full quote first. Cheers, -- another nut in the Chocolate City, Infrogmation 02:40, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

• thanx dude, chocolate milk is a great drink. --Ghetteaux 02:53, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

: Heh. I don't know if the "delcious drink" Nagin is thinking of is chocolate milk or hot chocolate. Either way, bon appetit, -- Infrogmation 02:56, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages, but please do not insert text referring to Nagin's remarks into articles other than the one about Ray Nagin himself. The incident is not notable or relevant enough to merit a mention on a general page like Chocolate. Please continue to contribute to Misplaced Pages, but note that edits like adding a link to Milk in an article about the Caucasian race are considered vandalism and will be removed. Again, thank you for you contributions. - Maximusveritas 06:54, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

your request makes no sense. everything is connected. the feeature that makes wikipedia useful is the ability to connect articles to see relevances. if you can't understand the relevance of legitimate backstory, widen your worldview. take off the blinders. knowledge should be inclusive. is anyhting i wrote a lie? no -- so shame on you for dumbing down america. and shame on you for thinking a majority opinion makes something correct. --Ghetteaux 11:45, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Just because something is factual does not mean it is appropriate for it to be on pages where it is not relevant or appropriate. The disambiguation pages are meant to serve as a helpful guide for people when they search for a term that has multiple meanings. It is not meant to be a place where you list random instances in which the word was used. Can you imagine what the page would look like if everyone did that? Encyclopedias can only be so long before they become useless.

Please do continue to contribute, but don't be upset if someone removes or alters your contributions. That's going to happen here. If you feel something you wrote in good faith was incorrectly removed, add it back. If it gets removed again, start a discussion about it on the Talk Page and try to find out the consensus opinion of the other editors of the page. Hopefully, this comment was helpful. Feel free to ask more questions if you have any concerns. - Maximusveritas 04:12, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

pictures

please do not: 1)replace pictures already placed by other users 2)place pictures where they don't fit.

thanks--Urthogie 13:46, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

pleeze do not 1) knee-jerk delete contributions 2)use the Rapping article as your fanzine site. thanks--Ghetteaux 13:56, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

It isn't my fanzine site, there are many rappers on it I don't like, and I often remove rappers I do. Try to fit the aesthetic format is all I'm saying.--Urthogie 15:16, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for adding an appropriate image at the right place at the right time. I plan on keeping it and frankly prefer it over Rakim. Thanks!--Urthogie 15:48, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

yo, thanx for being a true playa when it comes to the rapping page. --Ghetteaux 02:26, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Polymath

Ha ha hurk! gggghrllll....Design 01:56, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

uhm....

Who is Steven Seagal? -Damien Vryce 19:16, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

yo -- s.s. is many things, to many people. first and foarmost, tho, he is a ice-cold killer. RECOGNIZE. --Ghetteaux 20:34, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

uhm... go here

Ok, so he's an ice cold killer.....what does that even mean? could you explain a LOT better as to who he is? --Damien Vryce 16:16, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

cheque it -- yore best bet is 2 reed this page: Steven Seagal. start there, but then also realize this: beyond what we can ever know, s.s. is a complicated, misunderstood icon. tuff guy, spiritualist, or cinderblock-turned-actor? the only thing we can agree on is the man requires further and increasingly serious study. i hoap 2 hold a symposium before 2010 on the man and his impactz. --Ghetteaux 16:25, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Whoa man, that's deep. --Damien Vryce 16:26, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

I try 2 keap it deap, homie. --Ghetteaux 17:13, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

The Most Dangerous Game

For shame! Melchoir 21:40, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Seagaliana

So, you say that they took this off of the page right? Well then what was the reason? And also, why don't you just add it back? I don't see how it is a bad thing to have on the page if you just make it a teenie bit smaller.-Damien Vryce 19:14, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

see, i tried 2 add this contribution, but they deemed it wack. it was , and they thought seagal didn't rate a category. they are player haters, obviously. RECOGNIZE. --Ghetteaux 17:29, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Batman and Robin

That image of Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson in bed together is hilarious! Where did you find it? We should identify the source in the caption, along with the writer and artist, if possible. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 21:13, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

unfortunately, it was emaled to me, so i don;t know the detailz. but someone out there probably knows. --Ghetteaux 21:32, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Sword Master

Don't get offended by the deletion of master. A master is Japanese sword arts is a very specific thing. SS may be an Aikido master but it is not transferable and quite insulting to those that are. Movie choreographs don't count - in Japan there are literally hundreds of highly skilled movie swordsman - they don't call themselves Master. Again go for fact not hyperbole.Peter Rehse 01:29, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. no offense taken. but please realize that "master" and "japanese" are not mutually inclusive; in other words, an individual can be a "blackbelt" in "kendo," and a "master" in something unrelated and unrecognized by the kendo fans. dude, check out the articles on venn diagram and Japanophile beofre you get revert crazy!. Note your context! --Ghetteaux 01:34, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

just realized -- maybe i should be clearer: the word "japanese" was not used in teh sentence i wrote; therefore your criticism "A master is Japanese sword arts is a very specific thing" doesn't relate to the term master swordsman.

note: kendo = japanese sport; swordsman (does not equal) japanese concept. --Ghetteaux 01:44, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Be a bit careful with your assumptions. My initial sword background is in European fencing - he is not a master in that context either. Secondly - his sword background (what little he has) is in the Japanese context and unless my memory fails me - I've only seen him use Japanese swords. By putting Kendo and swordmaster in the same sentence (need I remind you that you originally said Kendo master) you are making the terms inclusive. A simple question - under what frame of reference is he considered a sword master I (again movie fans don't count).Peter Rehse 02:24, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

WHEW!!!! sounds to me like someone is a Seagaloclast! dude, I never wrote the term "kendo master" on that article -- check the article history b4 you accuse me of such high crimes! and about your biography: you sound like a deadly and dashing opponent! your training and abilitiez make many men tremble! not to worry, i would never challenge your obvious swordflashtery. but seriously, would you go blade for blade with Takeshigemichi? I didn't think so. so bow your head to the master; baiter is a man who hooks worms. --Ghetteaux 02:40, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

You're right you didn't put the Kendo master entry in - my bad. However, I'm not anti Seagal just accuracy. I also don't make any claims for my ability - in sword or Aikido or whatever but I also don't take movie choreography as a good measure either (in the one movie I was in I actually look like I know judo). And what's with the petty insults?Peter Rehse 03:52, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

PRrese, i acknowledge your martial abilities. and i do not mean to insult you; i merely meant that it would be unwise to challenge Steven Seagal on his own deadly ground. but keep it real and keap on keepin things accurate. piece out. --Ghetteaux 11:57, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Category:Steven Seagal

You know the community is probably going to delete this cat (or at least take out all the articles that are not actual Seagal films or the like). BDAbramson T 18:57, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

the community will then have to delete all of the categories in Category:Categories_by_person. such as the categories Category:Hilary Duff, Category:Bing Crosby, Category:Michael Jackson, etc. --Ghetteaux 19:00, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

There's an argument for that - more likely they'll strip it from most of the articles (I see someone removed it from groin attack already). BDAbramson T 19:05, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

hey, if those philisteenz can't grasp the conexxion, i can't help them. --Ghetteaux 19:07, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Sad to say, but I've cleaned out some of the extraneous material from Category:Steven Seagal. If you re-ad it and I see it, I'll bring it to CFD as a recreation of Category:Seagaliana. Movies, sure. His dojos, ok. The herb thing that goes in the energy drinks, stretching it but still ok. Per your links, Hilary Duff looks like it only has her movies and pictures of her used in articles...and that is typical for eponymous categories. --Syrthiss 19:40, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Ghetteaux, stop adding articles like victim and Tibetan Buddhism to your Seagal category; this is a horrible misuse of the category system, which is not meant to substitute for "what links here." Their relevance to Seagal does not mean that Seagal is relevant to those topics, and it's really absurd to categorize them in this way. Postdlf 20:01, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Final warning - if you recreate that category once more, you'll be blocked for vandalism of wikipedia. --Syrthiss 20:08, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Syrthiss, you relly come off lame writing things like that. just because you don't agree with soemthing doesn't make it "vandalism". take an alprazolam, dude. --Ghetteaux 20:10, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

It is vandalism when there is action to recreate something that the community decided didn't belong...and recreate it again... and try to fill another category with the items with the hope that nobody will notice. --Syrthiss 20:13, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

my friend, forget the alprazolam and take an abilify. now you think you're in my head! --Ghetteaux 20:15, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

If you think about it empirically, does your user page really belong in Category:Steven Seagal? Will people searching for articles related to Seagal expect to find this user page? I think what you're aiming to do is create a Category:Users who study Steven Seagal, or something like that (which would go neatly with your Steven Seagal userbox). Cheers! BDAbramson T 14:48, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

as usual, you make a good pointe. but, i would imagine that Ken Burns should be in category:US Civil War, or Albert Einstein would be in category:physics; therefore, user:ghetteaux, as one of that subject's scholars, should be part of category: steven seagal. but i will try the category you suggest, as it will keep the e-wolves from the cyberdoor. --Ghetteaux 14:54, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

No, he's not vandalising your userpage. You are inappropriatly putting your usepage into an article category. Stop it, or you will end up being blocked. --Doc 14:55, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

If you are a notable enough scholar to be put into a category, then someone will create an article about you. We categorise articles insuch categories, not userpages. --Doc 14:56, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

yo, you guys b relentless. mad props to you for being such cool, friendly dudes. ladies must b linin up for a piece of you. keep on keepin on, internetters. --Ghetteaux 15:02, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Put it back on and I'll block you for WP:3RR. Same goes for personal attacks and spurious accusations of vandalism. --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 15:07, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Fair use images

I have removed an image from your userpage. It is an image uploaded under a 'fair use' provision, and as such can only be used on appropriate articles. Please see WP:FUC for details. Do not re-insert this image. --Doc 15:02, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

whatever you need 2 do 2 get the girls, docky doc. I'm sure you'll "re-insert" when she finds out how awesome you were on the internets today. --Ghetteaux 15:07, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

set up some "social time"

yo, chill out guys.

its cool.

hey, friday nite is just a few hours away. call your favorite girl, put on some mood music, stretch out, and enjoy life. Ghetteaux don't need no stress. i give you a dapp, give it back for madd respect.

but most of all, relax. --Ghetteaux 15:11, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
