Lists are not stubs

Lists should not be tagged with stub templates, please use {{listdev}} (which also add a category) or {{Dynamic list}} over text. Also the {{stub}} has been deprecated in favor of stub categories. It is alsoa good idea to provide a category or two to your newly created articles. Circeus 17:08, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Prematurely deceased entertainer categories

Hi. FYI, folks are trying again to delete the prematurely deceased entertainer categories at Misplaced Pages:Categories for deletion/Log/2006 January 17#Entertainers who died.... I noticed you voted to save them in the past and thought you might want to know.  :) —Wknight94 (talk) 00:22, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Page name for temperature articles

To avoid flip-flopping between 'degree Fahrenheit' and 'Fahrenheit' or 'degree Celsius' and 'Celsius', I propose that we have a discussion on which we want. I see you have contributed on units of measurement, please express your opinion at Talk:Units of measurement. Thanks. bobblewik 22:49, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Phil Collins FAC

Hey Captain -- about a month ago, you had nominated Phil Collins for FAC and the nomination failed as the article wasn't ready. I was motivated by your nomination and spend the next couple of weeks fixing it up. I nominated it again last week, and the vote went through -- Phil Collins is now a featured article! Thanks for originally nominating it last month. Had it not been brought up, I wouldn't have taken the time to look at it and fix it to its current form. --Ataricodfish 07:14, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
