Invitation

Hello my dear sir. In compliance with your previous sentiments expressed after the 2008 Olympics, I am writing to notify you that a poll consisting almost entirely of females is now up and running and that your participation would be much appreciated... YellowMonkey (vote in the Southern Stars and White Ferns supermodel photo poll) 02:12, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for the great honor of allowing me to vote. I've worked hard to establish a strong reputation as a great pic-voter and will provide my input as time allows. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 01:33, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Mass deletion of sourced material

In this edit you removed a massive amount of sourced material from The Invention of the Jewish People. Please see WP:PRESERVE

Preserve information: fix problems if you can, flag or remove them if you can't. Preserve useful content. As long as any of the facts or ideas added to the article would belong in a "finished" article, they should be retained and the writing tagged if necessary, or cleaned up on the spot. If you think a page needs to be rewritten or changed substantially, go ahead and do it, but preserve content you think might have some discussion value on the talk page, along with a comment about why you made the change. Do not remove information just because it is poorly presented; instead, improve the presentation by rewriting the passage. The editing process tends to guide articles through ever-higher levels of quality over time. Great Wikipedia articles can come from a succession of editors' efforts.

And if you still wish to delete all the material, please discuss it on talk first and achieve consensus. Thank you. Factsontheground (talk) 16:25, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Peanut chews are my favorite.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 16:33, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Unjunctionary

Greetings Brewcrewer! I noticed you made a comment at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tapuah junction stabbing that was referenced by a number of other !voters afterwords. Just curious, do you think the close was appropriate? Regards, Arbitrarily0 ^(talk) 01:46, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

of course it was inappropriate, and now we have to waste our time (which could be spent more constructively) with a wp:drv.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 22:26, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Alright, well I saw your note to the closing administrator - I'll keep an eye on any resulting discussion. Cheers, Arbitrarily0 ^(talk) 03:47, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

I don't think it matters from a procedural standpoint (i.e., it won't invalidate the DRV), but is there a reason you created it on the page for 12 March, even though you opened discussion on the 13th? —C.Fred (talk) 00:22, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

dunno why that happened. i just went through the link at Wikipedia:Deletion review.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 00:24, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for listing this Brewcrewer. Arbitrarily0 ^(talk) 03:03, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

rollback misuse

Stop using twinkle and the rollback function for content disputes. BTW, you removed the POV tag w/o addressing the issue posted on the discussion page. --Jmundo (talk) 01:00, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

If the POV tag is what keeps you going, then enjoy, Jundo. Making everyone happy is my goal. But the actual tag is not something that I really want to waste time with, so please consider the subject closed. Enjoy the tag and the rest of your day, --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 01:16, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Typo.

Sorry, I couldn't see IronDuke giving you permission to edit his comment anywhere. I've left him a message, so if he has any issues with you editing his comments he can take it up with you. (And I didn't mean to be a dick, just trying to avoid wikidrama on an AN/I case about editing the comments of others). Peace. ← George ^talk 01:59, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

I have opened an arbcom case against Brewcrewer via email on this matter. He will receive notification shortly. BC: you may wish to resign now, while you still have that option. IronDuke 02:01, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

(joke conflict) You have to check my 2008 archives, I think it's there somewhere. IronDuke is notorious for his typos (WP:BLP attack aside), and we have this longstanding agreement that I fix his typos in exchange for donuts. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 02:04, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Uh, yeah, about those donuts. The last dozen I gave you I bought homemade from Nableezy and, um, well, let me just ask you not to eat too many at once. You'll know what I mean after the first one. IronDuke 02:14, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

talk about a vicious munchies cycle.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 02:16, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Do you have a reliable source to support your claim that IronDuke is, in fact, a living person? WikiZombies are notorious for typos, and eating BrAiNz..! ← George ^talk 02:08, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Warning

After your constant incivility and personal attacks on me, you are no longer welcome at my talk page. This is an official request. Refusal to follow it will lead to you being blocked. Factsontheground (talk) 04:22, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

thanks for warning me before blocking me. your kindness is boundless.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 04:25, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

LOL :)--Gilisa (talk) 06:49, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Edit warring

I have yet to get a response. It's right there on the talk page. I also put up edit reasons as asked for the Palestinian page. SGeography (talk) 20:21, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Be a little patient, and edit another article for the time being. But edit-warring is never the solution. Best, --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 20:28, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Re: Reaction

I replied at my talk page, but basically: a new discussion started just now at Wikipedia:Village pump (miscellaneous). -- Black Falcon ^(talk) 20:25, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 20:28, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Israeli Apartheid POV tag

Hi, since you have restored the POV tag, could you point me to the relevant discussion on the neutrality of the article? I can't seem to find it, and to me it looks pretty balanced with a lot of viewpoints from 'both sides'. Unless of course there really is no discussion and some people are generally unhappy with the article due to its balanced nature and want to deface it by tag-and-running. Wheelingolf (talk) 22:32, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Sure! The discussion is at Talk:Israel and the apartheid analogy#Why this article is NOT NEUTRAL. Best, --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 22:44, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, I didn't notice that. Wheelingolf (talk) 00:40, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

"Tag-and-running?" Says the wildly obvious sockpuppet? Do I get three guesses as to why you can't sign in with your master account? IronDuke 23:43, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Sure, but do you know what a sockpuppet is? Wheelingolf (talk) 00:40, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

Yep. Looking right at one as we speak. IronDuke 01:34, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
