Your user name
Hi. I am curious about your user name. Is it an intentional reference to the Iain Banks character in Use of Weapons? --Guinnog 13:54, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, it is. I remember that it was also name of one battleship in that book.(Staberinde 14:05, 11 October 2006 (UTC))
Armenia strawpoll
NB This poll has now closed, it being Friday 10th November and about 10.30am where I live. The numbers are as follows:
- Support 6 (although User:Hamparzoum's existence has been disputed by User:Tekleni.
- Neutral 1.
- Oppose 10.
As such, no mandate has appeared for making the requested changes to the article. As previously advertised, Caligvla and I are taking a break from this dispute for a week. After this, the case may be taken to the mediation cabal, although I hope to avoid this eventuality. Walton monarchist89 10:43, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

- Well, I have litte experience with running polls, but it seems simple enough: WP:POLL.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 16:16, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
Blanking of pages
Why do you do this? --Ghirla -трёп- 12:01, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
- Stupid mistake. I wanted to move Estonian Liberation War there(as discussed in article's talk) but i have no experience in such things so I thought that maybe if I blank it then I can make the move. As I found it can't be done so I reverted myself immediately.--Staberinde 12:10, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
- It's OK. Moves are performed by clicking on "move" button to the right of the button you click when you want to edit the page. Since the page Estonian War of Independence has some history of editing, the only way to effect it is to announce your plans on WP:RM and start voting on the talk page of the article you want to move. If you have problems with this, you may want to ask people on WP:RM to arrange the process for you. --Ghirla -трёп- 12:18, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
