Cinema of Unease

• It certainly is relevant to the page, put it in the history section. It is a doco by Sam Neill covering a period where many New Zealand films were dark themed or edgy hence 'unease'. Films such as sleeping dogs, an angel at my table, and the one where the farmer boy has lambs blood spit on him when his old man cuts its throat (cant remember the name but its freaky weird New Zealand Cinema). --Say Var Ree 01:59, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

November 12, and "Emergence Day"

How does a Video game not count? Halo and Halo 2 are both cited on their respective dates of release, and I have never seen a rule saying "no video games" 8/3/06 - Magus05

Since this is a matter which potentially affects more than just the November 12 page, I've raised it at Misplaced Pages:Village_pump_(policy)#Video_game_launches. Please contribute there.-gadfium 00:20, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Scott Sather

Thanks for the small update to the Scott Sather page. It really helps cause I think this individual needed to have more information and a better looking design to the page. Just doing the quote thing helped out a lot. Thanks again. DJREJECTED 11:43, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Oh Yeah haha

I do the "research" you write the paper baby! I'm learning a lot, check out my new user page and thank you xoxo.Courtney Akins 17:46, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your help on my questions. Do you think I'm hot?Courtney Akins 02:46, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Since you're in Florida, and it's summer there, then you are most certainly hot unless you have your air conditioning on full-bore.-gadfium 02:52, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Well I do :). But I also have a pic on my user page baby.Courtney Akins 02:56, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

My sideways comment was intended as a subtle hint that your question is not appropriate as this is not a social networking site.-gadfium 05:46, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Hey

Re this edit. unfortunately, they are called the black cocks. However, I recommend you DO NOT try to google that. I think they may have scrapped the name though . --Midnighttonight Remind me to do my uni work rather than procrastinate on the internet 08:13, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Very cautious googling seemed to indicate that they considered that name but either didn't adopt it or abandoned it. I would want to see a link to a website clearly stating that is their current name, dated in 2006, before I would allow this reference. Essentially, it comes down to whether the New Zealand national badminton team are a bunch of trolls or not!-gadfium 08:19, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Foreign relations of New Zealand

Foreign relations of New Zealand is simply awful. There is little actual content - it's primarily a list of organizations NZ belongs to - and the content that was there, other than what I added yesterday, appears to be entirely uncited, POV OR. I'm thinking of deleting 75% of the article and trying to rebuild it from near scratch. Respectfully, Republitarian 13:30, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

I started a page on New Zealander-Israeli relations. I am more than happy to downsize the section on Nz-Israel relations at Foreign relations of New Zealand, but I see no point in creating a timeline of NZ foreign relations page. There is no content for this, at least as far as I can see, on the foreign relations page. Respectfully, Republitarian 17:43, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

RfA Not Listed

GIen's RfA isn't listed yet. Wait a couple of minutes =). alphaChimp 05:50, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

It'll appear on WP:RFA. Then, feel free to vote. Regards, alphaChimp 05:52, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

I saw him accept it, and jumped in. You're right, I should have waited until it was on the RfA page.-gadfium 05:53, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

I actually reverted it back. Although the dividing line is there, I doubt anyone cares in the grand scheme of things. Regards, alphaChimp 20:14, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Cheers

Thanks for the category you added to Takuu. Lonely island feels included. Kahuroa 11:30, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Taito Phillip Field

Hi. You moved Taito Phillip Field to Phillip Field. I think that's a wrong move. Pls see Talk:Phillip_Field. cheers Nurg 13:12, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Foreign relations of New Zealand

Thanks for trimming Foreign relations of New Zealand. I had forgotten about doing that. Respectfully, Republitarian 13:12, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Jerkcity

I saw your block of Jerkcity; I think you have a leetle typo there -- he's blocked for gross civility right now. Didn't want to edit it for you; thought you'd like to know. Thanks. Mike Christie (talk) 19:59, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. Better that the typo was on the talk page and not in the reason for the block!-gadfium 20:05, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

User:Buttwhore

Would you please block this user: offensive usernames, posting attack article ... thanks very much User:Pedant 23:30, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

With regards to your comments on Portal:Singapore

Thank You for your advise. I would like to further enquire whether typing in {{FULLPAGENAME}} is another method of doing this. With regards to Portal:Bangladesh, I did it by doing this method as they were no ed options in the particular edit page. --Siva1979 17:14, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm not an expert. I think FULLPAGENAME is the method used in the recommended templates for setting up a portal, so it seems like a good idea.-gadfium 19:25, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
