Template:InuyashaCharacter

Actually, saving some typing is only a useful side benefit to the Inuyasha character template. My main purpose in creating it was to ensure a uniform intro to all the character pages. Before I made it, I noticed that the character pages all had different variants of " is a character in InuYasha..." Creating a template is an easy way to ensure that they are all the same. In addition, it can be changed easily. ] 04:08, Sep 23, 2004 (UTC)

I don't see why it hurts to have different intros, as long as they're coherent. Anyway, someone listed it on Misplaced Pages:Templates for deletion, and you may want to go defend it there. --Twinxor 04:21, 23 Sep 2004 (UTC)

PCB Milling/ PCB Prototyping topics

Hi,

For the record I'm the copyright holder (writer of) of **all** material on PCBprototyping.com, including graphics - I also own the site (registered under my company name: ximetrix systems). I'm happy to share the info here as I feel wikipedia a great concept. So - what's the next step to re-listing the topics? I also have several more to add...

Regards,

Ian Campbell ian@ximetrix.ca

I left a response on your user page. --Twinxor 04:52, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Poli-substub

Hi Twinxor... Just noticed your creation (last month) of poli-substub. There's a general feeling at WikiProject Stub sorting that Category:Substubs shouldn't be divided into subcategories, and it's generally discouraged. The reason is that it means that twice the number of categories have to be sorted by editors to look for items to expand. In general, the substubs should be either expanded slightly and given the full stub subcategory (in this case poli-stub) or dealt with in other ways (vfd or merger). In cases where the article deserves to be kept, simply giving the article the stub subcategory is usually considered ok (since there's often not a lot of difference between a stub and a substub in those cases, and it will put the article somewhere where someone is more likely to expand it anyway). Basically, then, the general idea is no substub subcategories; use the stub subcategories instead. Grutness| 10:12, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Oops. I see now you simply amended the category... sorry! Grutness|

Thanks for message

Replying about message left about copyright tag on image:Kitkat, I will do. Should I do this for the other pictures i have ' fairused '!? Thanks again.

Octopus card photo

I didn't change it. See here. --JuntungWu 14:49, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

That's true. Sorry for the confusion. --Twinxor 21:43, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Dark and stormy night

You're quite welcome! It was one of those light and calm afternoons when I click on "randompage" and just edit whatever comes up! Nice article, I always laugh when I read the full first line of the novel. Happy editing, and hello from a Cal grad, Antandrus (talk) 21:54, 15 May 2005 (UTC)

Your edits to Template:Cycling stub

Regarding your recent edit to Template:Cycling stub : Please be careful not to delete the HTML tags or the link to Category:Cycling stubs because it screwed up all the articles that had this tag. Thanks. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 21:30, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

That was dumb, sorry. Twinxor t

sxc.hu images on the commons

Hi, I believe that a decision has been taken to the effect that sxc.hu images are OK on the commons if the uploader does not place additional restrictions on them. Thanks for letting me know that Image:firearms.jpg had been put on the deletion page, though. Lupin 15:23, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)


Dave Kelly (Artist)

Why did you remove the sentence on "mixed marriages"? --KSnortum 08:30, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

It was unnecessary editorializing. Misplaced Pages is not the the place to make ironic comments pointing out peoples' closed-mindedness. Twinxor t 08:32, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
Good enough, I'll remove it again. Next time, would you at least put something in the discussion page about it? It helps me to be a better editor to understand another person's reasoning than to just see a sentence disappear "for no reason".
Ah, I see you did. Never mind. --KSnortum 01:43, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Nagorno-Karabakh War

Hi. I don't think Nagorno-Karabakh War is up to the standart of a good article. It is written mostly from Armenian POV without any significant input of Azeri users. I did not attach the disputed tag, because I think it can be improved up to the required standart, but you can check the talk page and see that it has seriuos issues. So for the moment I recomend to remove nomination. Regards, Grandmaster 06:51, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Yes, it is. It just needs input of Azeri editors, currently it reflects more the view of the Armenian side. I'm currently busy with Nagorno-Karabakh page, but I will contribute to this one as well. I think it can make it as a good article, it just needs more work. Take care. Grandmaster 07:24, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your note on italics

I don't think there is a distinction in the markup between the various uses (see Misplaced Pages:Manual_of_Style#Italics). Of course if we were to go to XML it might be different. Rich Farmbrough 19:56 11 July 2006 (GMT).

A new WikiProject. In case you're interested. - Samsara (talkcontribs) 17:30, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, why not. Thanks for the heads-up. Twinxor t 18:13, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

AID

You helped choose this week's WP:AID winner

Thank you for your support of the Article Improvement Drive.
This week Africa was selected to be improved to featured article status.
Hope you can help.

Ubuntu thanks

To User:Localzuk, User:Twinxor, User:Easyas12c

Just wanted to say well done for your contributions to Ubuntu (Linux distribution), which were important in getting it to FA status, and for being involved on its FA day and/or the aftermath. It's always so much better working with a group of people towards a common goal than walking the walk alone. - Samsara (talkcontribs) 13:39, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Monowheel riders

Do you know the guy, or just know of him? Just curious. Cheers, Postdlf 03:23, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

I don't know him -- I just noticed a similar photo on one of the sites linked in the article. Twinxor t 02:14, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Something Awful thoughts

It seems more likely than not that the Eve Online example was put in by a malicious party and it could very well be biased. However, given that it is a specific example of something mentioned in the article and, given what I know about Something Awful, quite possibly true, it seems prudent to keep it in for the time being, at least long enough to give its creator time to find citations. I like your decision: keep in the barebones stuff and ask for verification, while taking out inflammatory material unless it can be cited, and I hope you would agree that it would look very bad for an article with SA's history of contention to have well-writen negative content consistently deleted. Stilgar135 18:23, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm willing to look at a citation claiming that SA members engaged in such behavior, but I imagine that one isn't forthcoming and wouldn't be very credible. Again, I think you did the right thing, but if someone wants to make the argument, I'll listen to it (for only a second, most likely). Stilgar135 18:36, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

References added for Finland Plot article

Thank you very much for your suggestion on the Finland Plot article. I have added several references to back up the statements made in the Background section. I hope that you will have the time to review the edits, and if possible, judge whether the article is now worthy of Good Article status. Cheers, Patiwat 06:07, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

You placed Nature on hold at WP:GAC almost 3 weeks ago. It's supposed to be resolved in 7 days. Please take care of this issue. Thanks. Rlevse 19:51, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
