Autofellatio

Editing the autofellatio article, eh?

I won't even touch that one. Vandymorgan 15:32, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Hey, I just edit 'em as I find 'em. Even autofellatio deserves to have good grammar and spelling. Esrever 14:36, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Missing references

Most of the articles listed at User:Psychonaut/Contributions lack references, sources, and citations.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Drivearmy (talkcontribs)

Umm, okay. Well, thanks for pointing them out to me! Esrever 00:29, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Chapeaux

I'm sorry if I came across as rude with this edit. I can see how it might be better to simply use 'hats', thereby avoiding the cardinal writing sin of flowery prose; or perhaps that should be fleur-de-prose, or whatever. ;)

Anyway, feel free to change it back. — Feezo (Talk) 19:39, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Great job with Vanderbilt!

My goodness! You have done a terrific job getting the citations in the Vanderbilt article in order in the last few hours. You are to be commended for your effort. Great work! It should pass GA review. Majoreditor 16:42, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Vanderbilt

Good job carrying on the torch with the Vandy article. I'll try to help where I can, but there has definitely been a decrease in the amount of time I wiki. --Ttownfeen 04:35, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Dinah Shore at Vanderbilt

I do see your point about the cover art provision, but why are you deleting Dinah Shore only? There is no difference between it and the fair use for Amy Grant. After reading your argument, I was thinking I could use a Dinah Shore stamp, but the new Wiki rules exclude that also. --Zeamays 15:35, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi, again. I undid your edit to Starbucks regarding the corporate name. It is indeed "Starbucks Corporation." "Starbucks Coffee Company" seems to have been the second, and still current, name for the highest-visibility and primary subsidiary of Starbucks Corporation, but there are other chunks of the Starbucks Empire that name leaves out, like Seattle's Best, Tazo, and that music label thing. See their corporate reports, for example. --Dynaflow babble 17:45, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi. I'm sorry to bother you, but as a LoCE member, I just wondered if you would be willing to have a look through the Shaw and Crompton article. It is currently a Featured Article Candidate and needs a copy-edit for grammar by someone who hasn't yet seen it. Any other ways to improve the article would also be welcome. Thank you very much, if you can. Epbr123 12:21, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

East Carolina University

Thank you for looking over the article. When someone like myself reads an article so often, I begin to skim over words. See one thing, and think another word. Also, are you a pro at writing leads? I am having trouble writing a good lead for East Carolina University, and this is the only part that is keeping the article away from being a GA. Thanks PGPirate 17:49, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

It seems we hopped on the Trevian logo thing at about the same time...nose goes on integrating our defenses...[touches nose].

I did see the WP:Logo link...good to know.

Samois98 06:01, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi - I see you have recently created one or more new stub types. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type. And please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 02:46, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

user script

Thanks for the heads up, I just fixed it. On a related note, I notice you've been trying to clear out the unassessed Wikiproject Universities articles. I have been too, though so far mainly just the Stub and Start-class articles as I have less experience in assessment. Good luck, and hopefully there'll be 0 unassessed sooner than later... Danelo 13:58, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, that's a good idea. I was initially trying to speed through all the Lists of universities and colleges, adding WP:UNI tags to the untagged articles, but as you (politely) restrained from pointing out, but were probably thinking, it just creates more work later. I'm assessing them now as I go, though it is a bit slower :( . Danelo 19:21, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
Didn't know that about the simultaneous WP:UNI tagging and assessment; that speeds things up a bit. Thanks again for this (and all the) help! Danelo 13:25, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for adding the Stats Table at Wikipedia:WikiProject Bangladeshi Universities. Niaz bd 05:25, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Quincy University logo rationale

I've added the rationale for the QU logo, i dunno y it such a big deal tho... i see many university pages that have no rationale. (Tigerghost 08:07, 1 August 2007 (UTC))

Fair use rationale for Image:Collegesequoisseal.png

Perhaps someone should acquaint you with the concept of a "logo".

BTW, who owns the copyright on that rainbow flag in one of your user boxes? It was designed in 1978 and I've seen no evidence that it's under public domain. --Calton | Talk 00:59, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

I was simply pointing out above that the logo you uploaded doesn't include source information or a fair use rationale for its use in the College of the Sequoias article.
The last half of that sentence tells me, no, you don't, but if you want to engage in useless process-wanking, so be it. --Calton | Talk 01:10, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading transparent version of Image:PUB-logo.jpg---->Image:PUB-logo.png. Though the image is somehow hazy.Best wishes--NAHID 08:24, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!!

I would like to thank you for rating the article about Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and adding it to WikiProject Universities. I noticed your comment that the article "could be B-Class with references". Since the time you rated it a lot of references have been added, so I upgraded it to B-Class.
I am relatively new to Wikipedia and I wanted to ask you what needs to be done so that the article can receive a better rate (GA, A and so on). I've read all information about the quality scale, but I would also like to have more information on this issue. Thanks! Chggr 17:05, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Justin Berry 2

There is currently an ongoing discussion on Talk:Justin Berry regarding the inclusion of certain content in the article. I'm adding this note here because you have previously expressed an interest in the article. --Ssbohio 01:44, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Wikimania in Atlanta!

Hi! I noticed your involvement on U.S. South-related articles, categories and WikiProjects, and I wanted to let you know about a bid we're formulating to get next year's Wikimania held in Atlanta! If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs. If you would like to contribute more, please write on my talk page, the talk page of the bid, or join us at the #wikimania-atlanta IRC chat on freenode.org. Have a great day!

P.S. While this is a template for maximum efficiency, I would appreciate a note on my talk page so I know you got the message, and what you think. This is time-sensitive, so your urgent cooperation is appreciated. :) Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 07:59, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi Esrever. I've declined the speedy deletion of the above as the article indicates he has written three books, which is an assertion of notability. You may well wish to take it to WP:AFD however. Pedro :  Chat  10:09, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

I noticed that you promoted the above article to B class. Since then the article has improved IMHO. I also noticed that you were a member of the league of copy editors. I was wondering if you would mind copying editing the article? It is currently undergoing a peer review here. One of the comments was that the comma usage needed to be improved.

"Clean up"

I didn't reverted your changes to the Interiors of Buda Castle article although I think that the names of the rooms are proper nouns so the capitalization was necessary and the bold names made the text more readable (now it is frightening a sea of letters). But I reverted the changes regarding the original 18th century German names of the rooms because it was borrowed from contemporary historical sources. And you won't find a living German who writes "Frauen" with small f... Zello 23:19, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

I've semi-protected the article for a bit because of all the anonymous vandalism, and reverted to a version that I think is an accurate one. Still, there may be some residual vandalism, so you may want to check and see if I've overlooked anything. - Nunh-huh 01:16, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Not "folks" so much as just you - you seemed to be taking especial care of the article! :) - Nunh-huh 01:56, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
Plus I had this as an ulterior motive: Do you know how certain the identification of Elizabeth, mother of Sophia Johnson, wife of Cornelius Vanderbilt, is? From an article in NEXUS I understood that it was likely she was Elizabeth Simonson. Is it unknown? Is she definitely Elizabeth Hand? - Nunh-huh 02:25, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I have started the COTF project. Please nominate your article for the Editor Nominated Topic ASAP. We'll have results for our first COTF on Thursday, 06 DEC 2007. The First COTF will span from 07 DEC 2007 ~ 20 DEC 2007. This will give us time to experiment with the project and measure the level of our success. As always, I appreciate feedback. Sorry if the instructions seem like I'm the COTF dictator. I'm just trying to get things running...and when we get things on the road we can talk about rotating the moderator position as necessary. Thanks for your support thus far! - Jameson L.

Copy editing criteria

Do you know if you want an article copyedited, does the article not have to have any tags about clean up and referencing, as i cannot reword one of the NPOV tagged parts. Any assistance would be greatly apreciated. Thanks.  Sunderland06  17:22, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

I know that you have previously done it but i am working on the {{clarify}} tags and it really needs a thorough copyedit, happy-melon had denied it. Thanks.  Sunderland06  17:54, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
Oh, i forgot to mention, it was Gavin Donoghue and i have also asked one of the members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Lead Paragraph cleanup to do the lead section. Thanks. Sunderland06  18:00, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Greetings from the League of Copyeditors. Your name is listed on our members page, but we are unsure how many of the people listed there are still active contributors to the League's activities. If you are still interested in participating in the work of the League, please follow the instructions at the members page to add your name to the active members list. Once you have done that, you might want to familiarise yourself with the new requests system, which has replaced the old /proofreading subpage. As the old system is now deprecated, the main efforts of the League should be to clear the substantial backlog which still exists there.
The League's services are in as high demand as ever, as evinced by the increasing backlog on our requests pages, both old and new. While FA and GA reviewers regularly praise the League's contributions to reviewed articles, we remain perennially understaffed. Fulfilling requests to polish the prose of Wikipedia's highest-profile articles is a way that editors can make a very noticeable difference to the appearance of the encyclopedia. On behalf of the League, if you do consider yourself to have left, I hope you will consider rejoining; if you consider yourself inactive, I hope you will consider returning to respond to just one request per week, or as many as you can manage. Merry Christmas and happy editing, The League of Copyeditors.
