Minam, Oregon

Thanks for fixing that. And sorry my edits perpetuated the mess. Katr67 18:34, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

No problem. I grew up in Enterprise so it just jumped out at me. Pretty easy fix to do the page moves. Someone still need to go through the redirects and try and clean up any other articles. --StuffOfInterest 18:40, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

I've hardly spent any time in eastern Oregon, so it didn't jump out at me! I'm in the middle of about 20 different things, but I'll see if I can fix the redirects at some point. Katr67 18:55, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

P.S. It might be a little far from your area, but do you know anything about Mayville? I've got it in both Wheeler and Gilliam counties. I think Wheeler used to be part of Gilliam, hence the confusion? Or are there two places called Mayville? Katr67 18:57, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, afraid I've never heard of Mayville. My experience is only with Wallowa and Union counties plus a little travel here and there to other parts. Plus, it's been 18 years since I left the area. As for the redirects, I think I got them all. Good thing about such an obscure location is that there are not a lot of things pointing to it. --StuffOfInterest 19:02, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Possible Userbox Solution

This is a form letter, please don't reply directly. Do, however, feel free to discuss this solution I've come up with.

I've made an unofficial place for all User Boxes (hopefully) safe from overzealous Admins. Feel free to add any you like, edit any there, or just list your already made userboxes there. Also feel free to edit the main page (the user page) in any way that you think might help. Please note, however, that this is a user page and not an official Misplaced Pages page, so almost any User Box will be tolerated as long as it's within reason. UserBox 03:23, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

PS. I really liked your 'Userbox War' info. I think that sums up what I've been able to see since I started this last week.

Thanks for the compliment on the 'Userbox War'. Unfortunately, I doubt your special account is going to work. It has been tried before and always shot down. The user space is littered with previous tries such as User:Userbox and User:Boxes. The only way for the German solution to work will probably be if the collection stays distributed. --StuffOfInterest 18:30, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thank you for the welcome and useful links! Looking forward to contributing more to Misplaced Pages - I think I've been leeching off it for too long! Turkishbob 09:53, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Who Wants to be a Superhero?

Hello,

I believe you falsely accused me of vandalizing the Who Wants to be a Superhero? page. I was correcting a typo. As you can see in the section edited, you must click Ron NAJOR's name, not MAJOR Victory's. Several versions ago, this was correct, but then falsely changed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.146.46.207 (talk • contribs) .

You should have left the criticism up before, it was appropriate and I've restored it to my own talk page. My full response is on your talk page. Sorry about that. --StuffOfInterest 11:18, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up on Big Daddy. It's my fault. I was keeping on it and blocking the static IP every 3 months but I lost track. Did 6 months now. --Woohookitty 00:06, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome. Too bad some people can't take a hint. At least he isn't coming back with a new IP every five minutes. --StuffOfInterest 18:22, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Going Tribal etc

Sorry I got confused with the title. The title in Uk is Tribe. i wanted to move it to Tribe (TV series), but I put the worng title. Do you know how to fix it? If you can that would be great. I'm so stupid.--NeilEvans 22:07, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Ok thanks, I've reverted the move back to Going Tribal, and put a request on so that the Mods can do their magic. Hopefully they will sort it out. And I won't make the same mistake again...hopefully.--NeilEvans 22:22, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome. Just please make sure you followed all the steps in WP:RM. I'll post a comment in the discussion soon. --StuffOfInterest 22:24, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Your comments to LordStryfe

I've seen that you mentioned to LordStryfe that he may be blocked for his spaming of pages. I would like to ask you to avoid asking for a block at this time. I've been talking to him on my talk page, and I don't anticipate that there will be any further problems. thanks --T-rex 01:48, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

T-rex, no problem. I'm in no hurry. Still, LordStryfe will have to learn about the conventions and practices in a hurry or he will have a very troubled time here. Plain and simple, if he maintains that site then he shouldn't be putting links to it here. To tell the truth, several of the articles he posted to have far too many links on them already and probably need a good cleaning up. Popular music just isn't enough of an interest area of mine to invest the time in those particular articles. He only caught my attention because he tried to post to the list of web directories. Good luck with him. --StuffOfInterest 10:59, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Drini and the CVU deletion

You, like so many other Wikipedians, seem to have felt that Drini's actions in the CVU deletion proccess were wholly inappropriate. As a result, I'm forming an ad-hoc group of sorts composed of people interested in removing Drini. If you'd like to be involved, just drop me a note. ShortJason 20:06, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
