E-Prime

I arrived at your user page from the article "E-Prime". It was interesting to find out that you are "more of a fiddler and corrector than an originator" :) Corrector, correct thyself? Mkoval 20:38, 1 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Heathenism

I redirected back to Paganism and merged Heathenry as well. These articles were so small and so easily incorporated within Paganism I thought it was best. Have a look; I reformatted Paganism during the merger (I kept all content, in case your worried). Let me know what you think, on my talk page, or Talk:Paganism. Cheers, Sam [Spade] 22:16, 18 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I moved Heathen also. This way anybody who searches for any of these will find all the info :). Its way better than hoping to chance across each of the links, all w subtley different spellings, I'd say. Cheers, and thanks for your help, Sam [Spade] 05:47, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Category:Norse mythology

You have suggested a name change for the category "Norse mythology" to "Germanic mythology". I think that it is a very good suggestion.--Wiglaf 11:56, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Rabbits

Good point about the cross-space link. I'll zap it for you, you do the renaming. Noel 02:29, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Thanks, done. —Ashley Y 15:46, 2004 Sep 16 (UTC)

River Kennet Etymology

I've lived in Reading for some years, and I've never heard that derivation for the name of the River Kennet. Unsurprisingly given the age of most of them, it is not in any local history book I can lay my hands on. Care to quote a source?. -- Chris j wood 14:44, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Mullet (haircut)

You seem to be stuck in a revert war with User:Jello042 over Mullet (haircut). Please discuss your problems on the article's talk page. Thanks, Whosyourjudas (talk) 01:29, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Goddess

Now that you've moved Goddess movement to its own heading, a wise move, you need to leave a brief precis of its contents in the emptied subsection at Goddess. Just what's relevant to Goddess. --Wetman 04:10, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Androcracy

I appreciate your eagle-eyed criticism on the matriarchy page, and I think that the androcracy page could greatly benefit from it as well. If you have any suggestions as to how I can expand and improve that article, please let me know, either on that talk page or my talk page. I was thinking of adding content that reflected on the historical, social, psychological, and regional basis for androcracy, as well as anything else that might explain its prevalence. I am not referring to patriarchy in particular, but a more specific form of legislative, judicial, and executive rule by men. Thank you in advance. --Viriditas 08:27, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Your suggestion for category name change

Dear Ashley: Thank you for your suggestions. Following your recommendations for a new name for the category "Jewish philosophers (Judaism)", I renamed the category Category:Philosophers of Judaism as per your advice which is very succinct. The other branch of this category is now renamed as Category:Secular Jewish philosophers (was "Jewish philosophers (Secular)"). Both somehow supposedly "fit" under Category:Jewish philosophy. Thanks again for your excellent suggestion. IZAK 19:00, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Season

I really should have brought this up last February, when the changes were made, but I guess late is better than not at all.

You changed the table listing the season reckoning by month. I've never heard of anyone who considers spring to begin as early as February. Where did you get this information? --Smack 06:04, 29 Nov 2004 (UTC)

It's what I was taught growing up in England. See the second "external link". —Ashley Y 07:55, 2004 Nov 29 (UTC)

RFC on Kris45 etc...

I'd appreciate your comments and/or signature at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Kris45. -℘yrop (talk) 18:11, Dec 2, 2004 (UTC)

Thank you for alerting me to that. I wouldn't care except of course for the impersonation issue. —Ashley Y 03:26, 2004 Dec 3 (UTC)

Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
Multi-Licensing Guide
Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR

Option 2

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
