Please Note: I like to see conversation all in one place, so will usually respond here.
And I HATE beligerant junk on my page so I delete it. Yeah, I know, people might think I'm trying to hide negative comments but I don't care what people think. I'll reply and leave it for a while and when I get tired of the negative vibes I remove it.
Fortunately, most people leave nice stuff VBG>
I also remove old stuff just because.
Way too long and I'm getting messages about it. Gone. Feel free to start again.
But PLEASE add notes to the BOTTOM of the list! Thanks.

[edit] Reverting
Just a heads up--reverting the Ratonero Bodeguero Andaluz page because the photo didn't look good also reverted all the perfectly fine other edits made at the same time. Tsk tsk! Also since the photo is mislabeled apparently I think I'll go ahead and put a note to that effect on the photo; that'll help (i hope) in the future. Elf | Talk 21:07, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, I was coming to that. I didn't know how to take out the image so I just reverted and was going to put back the cats. You're too fast for me Elf.Quill 21:11, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
OK, sorry, I just saw that your talk page was blank and had to rush to put something on it.
OK, not really. Sorry I didn't think to wait to see what would happen next; when it's in front of me I just fix it and sometimes I'm too quick about that. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, to get rid of the image you just remove the image name from where it says "image". :-) Elf | Talk 22:52, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
- Hardy har har. You can defile the blank canvas of my talk page anytime. I have no objection to your jumping in and fixing stuff--just didn't want you to think I was a complete idiot! Quill 21:51, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
Only those of us with 1900 articles on our watchlists rate the official C.I. title. Elf | Talk 20:58, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
- You're sad. I just gave my watchlist a radical pruning. I'm down to a respectable 603. We'll see how long that lasts....Quill 21:42, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
I think mine is due for a radical blowtorching. Or I can just quit WP. Whenever I want. It has no control over me. Elf | Talk 23:40, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Canary Islands
I can't believe I did that! I'm just about dying of laughter over here after reading your edit summary. Elf | Talk 23:03, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
- It's easy to do, isn't it? Don't think I'm ever going to let you forget it: Canary Islands, located somewhere between Afghanistan and China--crack up every time I think of it! Quill 23:58, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
It's nice to be remembered for *something*. Elf | Talk 00:31, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Suggestion to Merge!
-
-
- Hello
-
Been a while, it has all been quiet on the western front. I fully appreciate Wikipedia's position regarding the proposed merge of the Koolie and Coolie page. You know the history of these two factions, there were more but they have closed up shop. The arguments that the Coolie group first presented for them still exist. 1. The Koolie is bred from pound dogs, untrue, there have been one recorded case by one individual breeder back in 2000 when the gene pool was small and breeders few. 2. The Koolie name, SA breeders put it in simple terms, they don’t write it, they just say it. The name as it has been explained in the Koolie section, has been totally accepted by registered Koolie breeders and the ANKC, simply for legal functions. The Koolie club in no way dictates to the general public or their members as to how the word should be spelt. 3. The American group do see their breed as an unrelated breed to the Koolie, while we continue to follow leads and learn more about the present and past of the Koolie in the only place you can learn more, in Australia. So please consider as I’m sure you are, of letting this slide for a while yet, the resulting information will be worthy of the standard the Wikipedia has set.Tjukurpa 23:57, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Cat breeds
I noted that you were one of the founding members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Cat breeds. That project has seemed to go dormant lately, although my recent joining has reactivated it. I was wondering if you would think it might be a good idea to merge the two projects together. I acknowledge that the scope of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Cats is a lot broader than that of the cat breeds project, but it does at least seem to have gotten a fair amount of new members lately. Also, given its breadth, it could easily take on the duties of the Cat breeds project now that it has become dormant. I would be very interested in hearing from you on either project page whether you think the two projects should merge or not. Thank you for your attention. Badbilltucker 19:13, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
- I think people just burn out over fighting with idiots. But I'll take a look. Quill 05:31, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not sure who the "idiots" you're referring to there are. Anyway, I hope I don't prove myself to number among them. Anyway, Here is a copy of the first newsletter of the Cats WikiProject, mentioning the proposed merger. I'm sending it out to all of the members of the Cat Breeds Project so that they can know a little about the group with which there is an existing merger proposal. We would welcome any and all comments about the project, and the newsletter, from members of both groups. Thank you for your attention. Badbilltucker 16:23, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

- No, I don't think it should be deleted in that photos of dogs of this quality are NOT readily available free-for-all and it's a problem with many of the dog articles. More at the discussion page. Quill 05:31, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
