Wikifiing Dr. Phineas Waldolf Steel
[edit]Thank you fo your suggestions as to making this a more valid article. I am relatively new to the customs and ettiquete to Wiki editing and appreciate all the help I can get. This is kinda a weird situation because I did not originate the article, however I am trying to help make it good and wiki enough to stick.
I have added a few quotes by the subject that came from third party institutions, and I am still trying to submit more objective material.
Thanks again for the help/suggestions!! Seary6579 20:12, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
YOUR OCTA WIKI IS DEAD!
[edit]What happened? The URL is DOA!
- No idea, but thanks for the update. I'll look at it tonight and see what's up. --Dennisthe2 02:37, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
- It appears that you no longer have any interest in maintaining your OCTA wiki. Would you be interested in letting someone else take it over? If so, I think http://www.transitrideroc.com would be a great place for it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.58.64.64 (talk) 16:33, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
sorry about the block
[edit]Another colleague of yours was vandalising Wikipedia apparently at work too. You appeared to have been collateral damage. Don't worry, as soon as we get bug 550 fixed, this probably will occur less often. Elle vécut heureuse à jamais (Be eudaimonic!) 05:23, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
Source of Vandalism
[edit]I saw the note on the IP address that you use about the block. As others have stated there has been a fair amount of vandalism from someone using that IP. It's a good idea that you signed up for a regular account, hopefully it won't effect you.
If you could keep an eye out on your computers and maybe check the Internet Explorer history from time to time, I'd appreciate it. I'm curious who this person is. Most likely one of the people is a person who has a facination about Dominion of Melchizedek and might have the first name John. Thanks.. Davidpdx 12:29, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- I wouldn't bet on it. The only John that I work with is out of a different location. IP spoofing comes to mind. --Dennis The TIger 16:28, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

erection index page deletion
[edit]In my opinion the deletion of the erection index page was a mistake, so I am putting together a replacement with additional explanation and references. Using the dispute resolution process I need to ask you for clarification on your deletion. Interpreting "as per norm" as "as stated", I would say the term is common, makes sense in the intended context, is documented out of a desire to share a definition of a common and useful term and relates to no original research of mine that I am aware of, and more references are available. If you have something specific then let me know, otherwise I'll just try to address all of the above and work with you all on this. -- M0llusk 05:38, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
AfD
[edit]You made a nasty accusation regarding an AfD in which I have posted. It is the AfD on Hong Tran. You said it was an edit war. As Bobblehead is not mentioned or attacked on the AfD, and as you explicitly mentioned me, it seems obivous you mean that I started the AfD as an edit war resolution or to win an edit war.
You are wrong, and it was quite rude and a clear assumption of bad faith by you.
Bobblehead started the AfD. Bobblehead on his own Talk page has said he intended to start the AfD before the flurry of edits.
I trust that in the spirit of constructiveness and friendliness, that you will change your comment on the AfD. I don't mean that you change it to or from "Delete" or "Keep". I am not talking about your vote. I am referring to your characterziation that I launched the AfD as an edit war. Actually, I made all of ONE friendly comment at the top of the page, until finally responding to the flood of comments that directly or indirectly referred to me.
I trust that you will will change your comment accordingly.
Thank you. --Nottingham 17:21, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
[edit]Thanks for your friendly remarks and apology. I respect and appreciate your response. Like I said earlier and you already have said you understood, it didn't matter to me how you voted (since, after all, everyone has the right to their own opinion), all I cared about was clearing up the misconceptions that seemed to be being spread about me. I am sorry you were dragged into this, and I did not mean to make it annoying, unpleasant, or a waste of time.
Have a good day.
--Nottingham 23:53, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
Merge and delete
[edit]I saw your comment on the AFD of "Themes common in gay porn". To comply with the GFDL the edit history for material needs to be retained, so deleting said history when the contents of an article are merged is not allowed. The proper vote is either delete or merge and redirect. You can't merge and delete at the same time. - Mgm|(talk) 10:21, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
Labels
[edit]Just a word of advice, when you tell people to check labels, you might want to do it yourself :-P This edit a long time ago [1] was incorrect as in fact H&S does contain Selenium Sulfide. Don't worry I'm not stalking you. I infact visited the article for another reason. I noticed that and was surprised since I was pretty sure I'd checked the labels at the time and it did contain so I was somewhat surprised when I read in the article it didn't (I didn't add the original info to the article). However a quick Google showed I was correct, [2] and [3]. I usually check if I come across an inaccuracy just to see if it was there all the time and if not, when it was added. Since you were advising others to check the labels, thought I'd return the courtesy :-P Hope you aren't offended. Nil Einne 17:39, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
- Actually the H&S website address I pointed out does say it contains SS (emphasis mine):
- Q: What makes Head & Shoulders the product to use to fight dandruff?
- A: Head & Shoulders is legendary at helping provide dandruff control. Its line of products contains two of the most effective active ingredients available to help fight dandruff - Pyrithione Zinc (“ZPT”) and Selenium Sulfide. Our patented ZPT formula and delivery system, as well as Selenium Sulfide, help control dandruff effectively and safely by going straight to the source of the problem. They both fight Malassezia, believed to be the leading cause of dandruff, without damaging hair. The result is virtually flake-free, beautiful hair.

Grammar
[edit]Finally! Someone who uses their own mind to promote proper use of grammar among they're own people to reduce the number of idiot's who can't right properly. Who does that anyway. --Trentjohnson 12:06, 5 March 2007 (UTC) (never misuses "their", "'s" or the almighty "question mark.")
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 19:49, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello DennisTheTiger, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:Swan Lake - Asylmoratova.jpg) was found at the following location: User:DennisTheTiger. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits. I ask you to please not re-add the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain. Thanks for your attention and cooperation. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 21:29, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Looking for something to do? WikiProject Furry is improving articles on furry and anthropomorphic topics, and we'd like to have you on board.
Our current goal is to raise Anthrocon, furry convention and furry fandom to good article status and beyond - but if that doesn't take your fancy, there are plenty of other articles to work on. Give it a go and let us know how you're doing! You received this one-time invitation because you are a Furry Wikipedian. GreenReaper 22:40, 28 July 2007 (UTC) |
Heya
[edit]Hi there!
Sorry it's taken me so long to respond to the comment you left on my talk page, but I've been busy with classes and such. Thanks for the invitation to WP:FURRY, I'll sign on and help with what I can. Oh, and congratulations on RainFurrest 0! It was my first furry convention and was a very positive experience. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chaos386 (talk • contribs) 16:07, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed your username appears on this category and would like to invite you to take part in a general improvement drive on all articles relevant to Oh My Goddess! including character articles, episode articles and others. -- Cat chi? 20:51, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
Competition Cams Article
[edit]- Comment - The Competition Cams article has been completely rewritten and re-cited with new, more credible sources. I urge each of the editors that previously voted against the article's notability, neutrality, etc. to please reconsider.
--Jabarke1 (talk) 16:20, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject).
I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.
If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!
If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.
Thank you and I hope to see you there! howcheng {chat} 23:45, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
Invitation to Meetup/Seattle6, a focus group
[edit]Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington (Seattle campus), and my group is reaching out to Wikipedians in the Puget Sound area. We're hosting a focus group designed to gather information on what Wikipedians would like to know about each other when interacting on Wikipedia. Our end goal is to create an embedded application that helps people quickly know more about others' history and activity on Wikipedia, and we feel our design will be much more useful if it's based on insights of users like you.
I'm hoping that the chance to help out local researchers, to engage in lively face-to-face discussion with other Seattle Wikipedians, and to contribute to Wikipedia in a new way will entice you to join us. The session lasts 2 hours and snacks are provided. Sessions will be held on UW Seattle campus - directions will be sent after registration. Your contribution will be greatly appreciated!
Willing and able to help us out? RSVP here. Want to know more? Visit our user talk page . Please help us contact other local Wikipedians, too! Commprac01 (talk) 01:39, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Farm assurance
[edit]Hi DennisTheTiger, I left explanations for some of my edits which you left unanswered after reversing them. In order to make Wikipedia a welcoming environment for everyone I think it would be a good idea to be responsive to that sort of dialog. Husaaved (talk) 19:47, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
A cup of tea for you!
[edit]I read your userpage and you seem really cool! I am sorry we never met up while I was in Seattle. I saw that you posted on the Wiknic page and I hope that you go. I wish that I could, but I am living on the east coast for a while. I would love to meet you at a Wikipedia event when I get back. You seem like you do not do Wikipedia much but I appreciate your involvement in the other causes on your userpage. Cheers! Blue Rasberry (talk) 01:31, 5 June 2012 (UTC) |
Wikipedia Takes America/Seattle
[edit]Wikipedia Takes America/Seattle needs you. Please sign up to participate, and discuss a date and meeting location. And maybe volunteer to be the organizer. I've been tagging articles needing photos for Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Seattle, Washington. A lot of these articles need proper location data added to that they will appear on the Google map. Thanks! --Dennis Bratland (talk) 19:51, 19 August 2012 (UTC)

Justin Bieber Death Hoax
[edit]I really don't see why this was deleted. It presents the incident as a hoax; whether or not it's notable is something that I don't know, but by presenting the incident as a hoax, it's not attempting to deceive readers. Dtfgator created it on 10 March 2010; it was rapidly deleted with db-hoax, and you recreated it (with Dennisthe2) as a redirect later in the day. Nowyouseeme tagged it for deletion four days ago, and it was deleted a couple of hours later. Do you still want it to be restored, or does my explanation fill your needs?
