'''Thank you''' for reverting vandalism to the article November 25. Your help is greatly appreciated. I notice that after you reverted the vandalism, you didn't warn the user involved. Could I ask that in the future you consider warning users who vandalize article? Its easy to do and has two significant benefits. First it tells the vandal that we are keeping an eye on them - many users stop vandalizing as soon as they receive a warning. Second it lets other editors know about previous episodes of vandalism and makes it much easier to leave appropriate warnings and know when to impose blocks, if required.
== :-) ==
 
Warning is really easy. Just leave a {{[[Template:test|test]]}} tag on the user's talk page. In the first case of vandalism you leave a {{[[Template:test1|test1]]}}, the second time {{[[Template:test2|test2]]}} and so on up to {{[[Template:test4|test4]]}}. If the user already has a recent {{[[Template:test4|test4]]}} notice you can report them to the [[WP:AIV|vandalism noticeboard]]. You can learn more about the warning system at the [[WP:VAN#Warnings|vandalism]] page. Good luck and thanks again for helping us remove vandalism from Wikipedia.

Well hello!! Thank you for being [[Wikipedia:Be bold in updating pages|bold]], I'm afraid I'm going to have to remove that merge tag because Sheva Mitzvas came much later! I would of course love for you to contribute to it and expand the subject, there are only a handful of medrashim and gemoras talking about this.

::That's right, no eiver min hachai if there's no bosor. RE your point that 7MbN are an extension of the 6, it is true, but consider this - there where ten doiros when these 6 where in effect, when people couldn't eat meat, therefore I think it deserve its own article, especially since it was given to Adam by Hashem, where as the 7MbN in a separate instance where given to Noach by Hashem. Since the article is under construction and yet to cite the midrashic sources, I'm not sure if the merge tag should stay on. [[User:FrummerThanThou|frummer]] 00:22, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

My dear Od Mishehu,everything you wrote about this article is a violation against the idea of Wikipedia.The article is absolutely normal for such kind of places-small districts with few villages in them.All the sources are riliable and public-maps and official census data.It is not categorised,because there is no suitable category for it (except Afghanistan stubs).So please leave the article as it is and if somebody ever wants to write more,let he does it.I strongly insist you to step back and remove all your templates,or I will contact Wikipedia for your patroling.Have a nice duty![[User:Drjmarkov|Drjmarkov]] 22:13, 24 December 2006 (UTC)drjmarkov
Hamster, if it's a dispute between different senses of humour, he's denying it. i.e., "I don't have a problem with your sense of humour or how risque it is." (his words.)
:About the categorization, there are several [[:Category:Geography by place|geographic categories]] which such an article could be put into.
:About the other claims, I'd like you to show me a few more similar articles.
:[[User:Od Mishehu|Od Mishehu]] 05:17, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
I even can show you other articles with less information in them,so if you are vigilant you would detect them by yourself,but you have not.I try to organise the mess with the Afghani districts and to help people,who occasionally come upon them,easy to locate them on the map,because of all the variety of names for them.You can be sure,that more information for some of the districts you cannot retrieve even if you go there.So leave this topic,if it is out of your interest.Maybe after many years there will appear more information for them and people to add it.I do not create articles ,which are not needed,I make the blank links not be thus.The links have been created before me.You have to be very eager in your patroling job to make fuss in the Christmass Eve for the districts in the Balkh province,Afghanistan.Use your energy for much more usefull aims.Merry Christmass and Happy New Year![[User:Drjmarkov|Drjmarkov]] 06:17, 25 December 2006 (UTC)drjmarkov

Regarding ignoring someone if they tick you off, I was never ticked off until he came out of nowhere to try and push me around. When asked why he was threatening me he just insults me. He keeps teling me "put a cork in it" or he'll kick me off the channel for no valid reason. In my view, he's on a silly Internet power trip and yes I know that IRC and Wikipedia are different, but I can't reason with the guy in there because he takes offence to everything and anything I say and he's got the button. I haven't taken nonsense from bullies ever and I'm not about to start now, moreso one that's still wet behind the years and barely out of diapers.

Dear Od Mishehu, I find your global incorporation of this "taxon" a little bizarre! I read the relevant article, and the whole thing seems to be within the realms of "possibility only", and not even subscribed to by all leading evolutionists... A particular hobby-horse of yours, I wonder? Anyway, if you agree that the main article itself is substantively correct, then I suggest the introgression of this "superorder" into every conceivabale animal taxobox that "fits" is a little over the top. I suggest we leave the "accepted taxonomy" as is and leave the conjecture to higher-order taxonomic articles...what do you think? Thanks--[[User:Grmanners|GRM]] 21:21, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

== Why add superorder Cetartiodactyla to all taxoboxes about whales!? ==
 
I can see that you have been massively adding superorder Cetartiodactyla to all taxoboxes in articles about whales. This is undesirable because of two reasons:
== My [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/FrancisTyers|Request for Adminship]] ==
* It is preferred to only add main taxa to the taxoboxes and not intermediate ones like superorders, superfamilies, ''unless'' it clarifies the classification of the particular taxon described in the article. Otherwise it is unnecessary information that makes the taxobox less readable.
* Although the evidence for and acceptance of 'Cetartiodactyla' is growing, it is still controversial enough to leave it out of authoritative lists like taxoboxes for now.
I hope you agree with this point, and either turn back the changes yourself or allow me or others to do it...
Kind regards, --[[User:Fedor|Fedor]] 09:51, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Taxoboxes should include all major ranks above the taxon described in the article, plus minor ranks
== My RfA ==
that are important to understanding the classification of the taxon described in the article, or
which are discussed in the article. Other minor ranks should be omitted.

:You have rashly inserted this superorder in a massive amount of taxoboxes. As this clearly is deviating from common usage of taxoboxes, I would prefer that you revert these changes yourself.

Many thanks for your '''Full Lemmy Kilmister Support''' on my request for adminiship, I'm sure you'll be glad to know the final result was 92/1/0. I am now an administrator and (as always) if I do anything you have issue with, please talk about it with me.
 
I have created the Wikipedia article "Academy Hill School", a school where I serve as lead teacher. My intent is to have a group of students work on the article over the next few weeks, adding headings, details, sections, etc. I am hoping that it will not be deleted before my students can do this. How long will I have before it is deemed natable enough to continue to be included? [[User:Carolrosenthal|Carolrosenthal]] 00:22, 18 January 2007 (UTC)Carolrosenthal

==Category Uncat template for conceptual treatment ofaesthetics subjects==
Hello!
I don't know whether this interests you or not but I hope you might like to look at [[Hall (concept)]]. As it stands now it is an almost direct copy of [[Hall]] but the latter has a disambiguation tag put on it so someone will soon by trying to simplify it in the way that for example, [[Bolt]] was treated. It seems to me that the way that these two articles had begun to develop is useful.
 
There was a fairly clear consensus from discussion at [[CAT:NOCAT]] to add them at the bottom, and I don't see how it's feasible for a bot to make stylistic decisions about the best place to place it. Hopefully someone inconvenienced thereby will either fix the categorisation, or move the template by hand. If you feel the template is too large, you might want to bring that up on its talk page. [[User:Alai|Alai]] 03:03, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
[[Hall (concept)]] is capable of development as a page which links several other articles by following the development of the concept which together, they embody. It thereby makes the whole of the group of articles more than the sum of its parts. Converting it to a disambiguation page as was done with [[Bolt]] turns it into a simple index with none of the insight which might have been there. It is tempting to abandon the idea of doing such work as without some recognizable category, there is the likelihood that someone will follow up with a merger proposal or a disambiguation tag.
 
== ==
I therefore propose a new {{conceptualization tag}} along the lines of the existing disambiguation one.
If this does not interest you, perhaps you know better than I do, who might be interested in taking it up. :-) ([[User:RJP|RJP]] 21:14, 8 January 2006 (UTC))

==Dancing the night away at Saugeen==
 
== re Academic organizations ==
Well, once again, I think that the stripper story should receive a mention in the too skimpy [[Saugeen-Maitland Hall]] page (more than is there now). To deem it un-newsworthy when it clearly has received coverage in several newspapers, including Canada's largest daily paper, the ''[[Toronto Star]]'', is to rewrite [[history]]. Is that the purpose of WP? -- to rewrite history? I don't think so. Further, given the widely held reputation of Saugeen as a "fun place" to reside while attending [[UWO]] ([[Google]] Saugeen and see for yourselves 12 pages of "The Zoo's" reputation and memories), this incident adds context. And make no mistake about it. Senior officials at UWO have tried to alter Saugeen's reputation over the years -- effectively banning the use of the nickname "The Zoo." Are there UWO officials on WP trying to squelch this story? Probably not. But I don't think that we should do their dirty work. [[User:Barry Wells|Barry Wells]] 23:52, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

:I think that for me to go now and remove the copyvio would be considered vandalism. Anyway, before the admins delete it, they will have to double check that it is a copyvio - so you should put your effort towards making sure they think it's okay. By the way, they already un-copyvioed one article I did.

==Deleting Categories of Jewish Athletes==
 
Hi. I believe this is related to an issue that has interested you in the past. At http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion#Category:Jewish_fencers some people are suggesting that Jewish athletes, beginning with Jewish Fencers, should be deleted. I do not think that is the correct approach, or consistent with wiki policy, and thought that others might want to weigh in on the discussion. --[[User:Epeefleche|Epeefleche]] 13:30, 8 February 2007 (UTC)--[[User:Epeefleche|Epeefleche]] 13:30, 8 February 2007 (UTC)--[[User:Epeefleche|Epeefleche]] 23:49, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

== Uncategorised articles ==
 
excuse me, but i dont understand your comment on my userpage?
 
I was under the impression that 'stub' put it into the category of articles that were new and lacking, and thus needed inprovement?
 
if that was wrong then that was wrong, and i'd like to know so i dont do it again -- as far as 'not good enough' and 'i should put it in the correct category' is concerned tho, the whole point of a wiki is that one person doesn't have to do everything. as well as categorisation, it also needs, imo, an illustrative picture and more words. i couldn't be arsed to provide these, so i just started it off and left it for others to finish, bit by bit, wiki style. --[[User:Dak|Dak]] 23:14, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
 
:Stub articles, in order to be improved, should be classified with similar stubs - for example, an expert on [[Mammals]] can find [[:Category:Mammal stubs|stubs about mammals]] as a seperate place from [[:Category:Insect stubs|stubs about bugs]] - a subject this user may know less about. In addition, [[:Category:Stubs]] and {{tl|stub}} don't make it easier for a user trying to find information on [[weapons]] - while placing a <nowiki>[[Category:Weapons]]</nowiki> on the page does.

== {{[[Template:uncategorizedstub|uncategorizedstub]]}} ==
 
I'm holding off tagging with this while the backlogs are so large; it seems overkill to have an article in both "queues", when there are so many waiting in both. If and when the backlog at CAT:NOCAT is cleared, or at least down to more reasonable proportions, I'll be happy to sweep through all the stubs with no permcats, and tag those.

It's interesting how two individuals that currently live in Saugeen (see above postings, [[User: The Vince-alator]] and the other user beginning with the letter "O") are strongly opposed to this page and presumably its inclusion in the [[Saugeen-Maitland Hall]] thread. [[User:Barry Wells|Barry Wells]] 00:43, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
 
== Thomas Eakins ==
The real significance of Saugeen-Maitland Hall lies in its history as the first co-ed residence on campus. Originally, in 1969, the men and women were separated -- the men were in the Saugeen portion and all women in the Maitland portion (locked doors between the two sections). The men and women each had their own "Proctor."
 
Sorry I reverted you on this one, I meant to restore to an earlier version, not to imply you did something wrong, my apologies. - [[User:Myanw|Myanw]] 14:21, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
Then the men and women were put in alternating "units" (three floors made a "unit") in the respective two sections of the complex. Later still, men and women were put on the same floor. This is the real significance of Saugeen and the various hi-jinks and shenanigans/ memories and reputation of the place is part of that history.
