[edit] Fact

Can you cite a source for that fact on Guinean franc? Neat tidbit, but without a source, it won't fly. Thnx Joe I 03:56, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] waste-to-energy cleanup tag

I'm sick, consider me unavailible. --Sinus 06:49, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Missriya

If you are uncertain whether the page requires further work, or if you disagree with the notice, please discuss these issues on the page's talk page before removing the notice from the page. These notices and comments are needed to establish community consensus about the status of an page. Thank you. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 13:35, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Sorry. Green caterpillar 19:51, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] helpme

My question - My log says I created User:Red Frog, although I did not. Can I remove it, and if I can't, will it have an effect on me in the future? Green caterpillar 19:42, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Please put helpme requests on yout talk page ... and; Having two accounts isn't against the rules on its own. Someone may have logged in as you and created the other user (suprisingly similar usernames patterns), no it can't be removed (unless you have the account password and have it disabled). It may affect you if it is used as a sockpuppet to circumvent wikipedia rules. -- ∞Wirelain 19:58, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Short answer: no. Long answer: yes there is a 'right to dissapear' ... but that doesn't removed entries from your log, just completely hides your log from everyone, except admins. The only way i know is to completely stop using and lock the account, while getting a new one. You may want to ask in more detail at the village pump. -- ∞Wirelain 20:14, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AN/I question

I see the question has already been answered above, so I'm not sure why you decided to ask it again. The answer is the same. The account was created whilst logged in as this account so technically the account was created by "you". The effect is that everyone can see the account was created by you and it looks like you have two accounts, having two accounts is not against the rules, using those accounts to circumvent policy is. So say you both voted on a article for deletion it could like you were trying to get two votes. The connection cannot be removed from the log. Using the rename user facility won't remove the connection. The best thing to do is what has already been suggested, one of you should just log out and create a new account and never use the old account again. --pgk^(talk) 07:02, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lindsay Lohan

It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed content from Lindsay Lohan. Please be careful not to remove content from Wikipedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Thank you. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. Tobes ^(talk) 15:21, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Click here for frequently asked questions about the bot and this warning. // Tawkerbot2 23:13, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

I intended to remove the peer review discussion because of a merging proposal (see Talk:Waste-to-energy plant). Green caterpillar 23:17, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unmaintainable?

What's unmaintainable about the list I created? What maintenance problems do you forsee? I'm trying to get to the bottom of the matter so that I can creat a list that everyone is happy with. Perhaps you can shed light on what is going on at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of food topics. --Transhumanist 21:01, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] COTW Project

You voted for Pigment, this week's Collaboration of the week. Please come and help it become a featured-standard article. Davodd 04:50, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pigments

I separated the article into two, the other being called pigment, biology. Please see the discussion of that in the Talk section. The two topics (pigments in art and manufacturing and biological pigments) really had nothing in common with each other except the basic definition of a pigment, and it was unwieldy to create an article around both topics. --Metzenberg 20:20, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Euro cleanup

good work on what had become a very soggy article.--Red King 20:34, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WW2 article poll

There is an important poll going on at the moment about the intro. Would you like to take part? Wallie 21:04, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RFA thanks

Thanks so much for your support on my RFA, which closed successfully this morning with a result of (64/3/3). I will be stepping lightly at first trying to make sure I don't mess up too badly using the tools. Any further advice/guidance will be gratefully accepted. I hope I will live up to your trust!

[edit] List of beat 'em ups undeletion request

I have nominated List of beat 'em ups to be undeleted, under the reasoning that it is not redundant to the category; it contains many games which are not covered by the category, and may never be able to be covered by it. In addition, the list can do more than the category. It can put date, developer, release date, system, et al., useful especially for articles that would be difficult to create an article for. I hope that you will vote on this and hopefully support its undeletion, on the basis that it does something that makes it not redundant to the category.

[edit] VandalProof Awaiting Approval list

Hi. I just applied for approval for VandalProof, and I noticed your name on the Awaiting Approval list. According to the instructions there, we are supposed to replace spaces in our usernames with underscores. (I think they request this because of formatting issues with their edit count tool.) I noticed that your name still had a space in it, so I changed it to an underscore. I hope you don't mind. Good luck! --Majin Izlude ^talk 11:56, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Michael Oliver

Thanks for the advice on Michael Oliver (actor).

I understand what you mean by more information--he's a recluse and this isn't easy...

...but what do you mean by "organization"...I figure it as pretty organized.

Thanks!

[edit] George W. Bush B-Class Article

You recently added the B-Class Bio template to the GWB page. I wanted to make sure you were aware that the template was already there and is now on the talk page twice. Should one be removed? AuburnPilot 21:24, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

No problem; I just wanted to make sure that was correct. I'll take care of it. AuburnPilot 21:30, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Vicente Fox

Your nomination of Vicente Fox as a good article is not funny. Please refrain from further pranks. Ya ya ya ya ya ya 02:07, 9 September 2006 (UTC)\

Stop this, it is not a prank. Green caterpillar 12:59, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Just to note I ahve failed Vicente Fox as a GAN, editing stability isn't there, indeed it's just been reverted and (AMAZINGLY and INCORRECTLY) protected. – Chacor 14:36, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hayek Assesment

Thank you for the assesment of Kayek. Take note that Talk:Immanuel_Kant has a "Core" raiting. This is why I was requesting. Hackajar 08:21, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gilberto Silva

Hi there. This message is about the rating you left about the Gilberto Silva article. First off, let me say that I really appreciate your comment on how to improve the article. In light of your suggestion, I have just rewritten the entire article, and was wondering if you could read over the new version. I'd really appreciate some more ideas on how to make the article even better. Thanks very much for your time. All the best, -GilbertoSilvaFan 03:04, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
