Greyhawk article targeted for deletion - Baklunish Basin has been proposed for deletion. If possible, please comment at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Baklunish Basin. Thanks. --Robbstrd 17:49, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please help - Sorry to bother you, but as an Inclusionist wikipedia things are getting desperate and I need to appeal to your for help. We are facing a situation where a deletionist admin is free to declare inclusionist arguments "absurd" and ignore them at will. If you don't agree with this situation, please share your opinion here.

Tolkien terminology - Hey there, could you give your comments considering this issue here? (There's free chocolate ;)...) It's about standardizing terminology usage in Tolkien articles, so it's crucial and a consensus is needed. Thanks! —Mir l e n 05:19, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If so, please add your nomination to the above page and then direct Mike to it. Tell him to answer the questions and then list the nom on the main RFA page per instructions. If in fact you don't want to conom please let me know and I'll proceed with informing Mike that my nom is ready. Cheers. --kingboyk 16:23, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar

Thank you! I really appreciate that. And with the week I've been having, it's even more special.
Serial commas? Aaarrgghh. ;) Actually, I don't even know why I don't like them -- one of my many quirks, I guess.
Again, thank you very much, and I really hope to see the wizard article reach FA status. Take care. Jim62sch 09:15, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you!

Thanks for the Barnstar!--Hnsampat 16:19, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Greyhawk Wikiproject userbox

Nice work!--Robbstrd 18:52, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

New userboxes

I have deleted a userbox template you recently created, as userboxes should no longer be created in templatespace per the terms of the German userbox solution. Here is the userbox code so that you can recreate the userbox in your userspace ("userfying") if you wish.

<div style="float: left; border: 1px solid black; margin: 1px;">
{| cellspacing="0" style="width: 238px; color: white; background: #a21;"
| style="width: 60px; height: 45px; background: white; text-align: center; font-size: 14pt;" |[[Image:Roman empire 395.jpg|60px]]
| style="font-size: 8pt; padding: 4pt; line-height: 1.25em;" | This user is interested in the <br>'''[[Roman Empire|<span style="color:#FFFFFF">Roman Empire</span>]]'''
|}
</div>

Chess

Hi, thanks for contributing to my chess game. Unfortunatly, you made an illegal move, and it has been reverted, however you are welcome to come back and make a different move instead.

The reason that the move was reverted is: You moved my piece (white), not your own (black).

Thanks --GW_Simulations_{|User Page | Talk | Contribs | Chess | E-mail} 18:21, 24 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oops : ) - Jc37 14:35, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for participating in my game of chess. The game was won by black.
A new game has started at User:GW_Simulations/Chess/Game 2 if you are interested in participating.

I've been starred!

Thanks for the barnstar. It sometimes does take some patience, but I'd like to think we'll be through it in less than a month. Now we just need some bots...--Mike Selinker 20:39, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lost marbles

Maybe I'm losing my mind? --evrik 20:43, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the welcome back!

Really appreciated. :-) Carcharoth 15:10, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Arkham asylym arbritation nonsense

Although I had to back Basique on the issue of whether or not Arkham is penal because (1) it has been repeatedly referred to as both a prison and a penal instituation in the comics, making the assertion not OR, and (2) I have visited a mental hospital for the "criminally insane" and know first hand that it had to be classified as both a hospital and a penal institution, I nevertheless chided Basique for blowing things out of proportion and going to the Wikiproject Comics message page using confrontational language like "arbitration." Basique has a history of tattling on people or getting into tiffs when he feels overly protective of a page. Even though he barely allowed enough time for your discussion about the issue to go on, the fact that he allowed even a few days of discussion before sounding the horn to everyone else is actually progress. Anyway, I think the list should have a different name altogether, something more modern and less phallic-sounding than "penal." Regardless of which, you make great contributions to the comics pages, you raise some really good points on issues people get into, and I'm glad to have you around.

List of correctional . . .

Before it turns into an edit war, I would appreciate an additional opinion from someone already familiar with the List of correctional facilities in comics. Please look at the recent edit history. Wryspy made a number of edits cleaning the article. I tweaked one of Wryspy's edits, but otherwise thought they made sense. The article is, after all, just a list and therefore should be as concise as possible. Someone else, however, keeps reverting the article. Since I disagreed with you on a previous point about the title (while nevertheless feeling you made rational, well argued points and contributins), I don't think anyone sensible can accuse me of soliciting your opinion just because I'm just trying to stack opinions in any particular direction. In this case, I'm more interested in the process than the outcome. Doczilla 06:26, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Hardly a consensus

Three cheers for your comments concerning the lack of a consensus on several deletions today. (Wikipedia:Categories for deletion/Log/2006 October 1) I don't know how strongly you feel about this issue, but I appreciate you weighing in. I am very concerned about this trend toward Over-Deletionism and plan to stay on it. Any input is greatly appreciated. -Xanderer 17:56, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just an FYI, though, in my opinion, Kbdank71 typically does an awesome job of discernment. (Look further up his talk page for some other comments of mine.) Sometimes a CfD can be confusing, though, and as far as I can tell, he welcomes the comments. - jc37 18:02, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just saying thanks

Just wanted to say thanks for the good discussion and the reference to it on the powers talk page. Thefro552

You are a lifesaver!

A day later, although I had the best of intentions I now realize that there is a certain status quo regarding these multiple entries which a few take very personal. I appreciate your diplomatic manner in broaching these concerns to me and the speedy removal suggestion which I was able to apply to at least rectify the initial objection. You and a few others really stood out, showing the best in the comicbook project community in assuming the best and building bridges between different perspectives. My sincere regards.

Batman/Superman templates

Because you are of the people who have edited these templates, I'd like to request your input at Template_talk:Batman#Template_width so those of us who have been working on these templates can agree on how to standardize them. Doczilla 22:01, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good call on changing "People" to "Actors" on the templates for Batman and Superman. This way, we don't have to debate which people's names belong there. Naming only those who played/voiced the character is specific and objective. Doczilla 05:54, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re this

Thanks jc37! I hope I won't regret trying to continue in the same vein... Best wishes, David Kernow (talk) 20:16, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

happy Turkey-Day!!!!

Barnstar

		The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
		For your excellent work on improving Peanuts and related articles. - Mike (Talk) 21:02, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. Just reading over it now, and knowing that you've been the most active in the collab so far I have to say that it has improved immensely and just may get up to that GA standard. - Mike (Talk) 21:23, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Hi again. There were two reasons I originally asked you to help: you knew best how far your nominations had extended, and you were least likely to bump into misunderstandings (since you were basically reverting yourself, you were least likely to attract unfounded, but commonplace, suspicions). Of course, doing all of it entirely was extremely generous, and I bow my head in thanks - I was going to do more myself, but I could only contributte sporadically today, and had some pressing business to attend to. Again, many thanks. See you. Dahn 23:14, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
