Thanks!

Thank you for your note. I enjoyed the time away. And, yes, honestly, I had hoped I would return and find that pest had found other ways of having fun. But, alas, no. Well, we will deal with him as circumstances warrant. Cheers! ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 14:26, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Eyes Wide Shut

Wow! That was a whole lot of nonsense. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 03:11, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

WP:UAA report

Hi there; you have reported user:Assfacex as an inappropriate name. This would certainly be a good call, except that this user does not appear, in fact, to exist. Did you spell it correctly? --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 12:36, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

discussion notice: smallcaps and LORD

I have started a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (capital letters)#smallcaps and LORD.--Kevinkor2 (talk) 12:30, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

I am handling the plot--synopsis. One is very hard on this movie, compared with the other films that include many non-sourced material. Karel leermans (talk) 11:47, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Please read WP:NOT. More than one editor has removed your speculation as inappropriate. Please be aware that there are plenty of places on the internet where you can make your theories about this film known. However, they are not appropriate for an encyclopedia. MarnetteD | Talk 12:28, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
Further two editors have found your edits to be inappropriate per the discussion on the talk page for the film. Therefore your continual reinsertion of them can be considered disruptive. I can only suggest that you ask for more input at the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film page. MarnetteD | Talk 13:06, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

I cannot understand while the "plot" was once again alterated. The discussions on the wikifilm-project page show the difficulties of commenting movies in an encyclopaedical way. Why should a plot be sourced? Editors have a different opinion about this. By the way, the really disruptive people in this matter are the ones who cut interesting chapters while knowing nothing at all of the subject.Karel leermans (talk) 17:07, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

In the first place you cannot continually reenter your edits once they have been removed. Per WP:BRD you need to discuss on the articles talk page why you want to add your edits. Next, you continually enter all sorts of opinion into the plot section which is totally inappropriate. You also enter things which have nothing to do with the plot of the film. You will also want to read WP:CONSENSUS because is the way that wikipedia operates. We are now up to three editors which disagree with you additions. As I suggested above there are numerous places on the internet where you can express your feelings about this film. You may wish to take advantage of those. My opinion of this is not going to change so if you wish for further input please take your concerns to the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film page. MarnetteD | Talk 17:17, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

OK Karel leermans (talk) 14:26, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Hohoho, Ive posted some reference notes on the talk page if you get inspired for expansion. Ill be a bit busy in the next bit but id love your feedback on ideas for putting together a meaningful reception section for the article. Cheers; Ottawa4ever (talk) 17:24, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

R-r-r-r-rollback

Just to let you know that I rolled back your rollback to User talk:HJ Mitchell, since there didn't seem to be a reason for the rollback. My guess is you knocked the button on your watchlist by accident? GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 20:48, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

It appears that Dave has been offline for a week. Given that, it might be just as well to let the vandals have their say, and when he gets back from holiday vacation or whatever, he can deal with them. Going to Dave's page can be educational. For example, I don't think I was aware that he had designated me as his surrogate recipient for idiotic sock attacks. But that's OK. I can handle them. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots00:56, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Christmas present.

What a wonderful Christmas present. Your post on my talk page came at a good time and cheered me up. Thanks, and you have a good Christmas also! —Prhartcom (talk) 21:01, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your kind message. That was a great surprise and much appreciated. Merry Christmas to you and yours. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 22:30, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Return Greetings

Happy Holidays, MarnetteD!

Seasonal Celebrations & Frolicsome Festivities. Happy editing, and happy breaks from editing, whether you celebrate Solstice, Christmas, or whatever. If you're Jewish, remember the second most famous Jew born December 25th is Rod Serling.--WickerGuy (talk) 22:58, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Christmas

Thank you! :) I appreciate it. Happy Holidays to you too! Andrzejbanas (talk) 01:29, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Merry Merry

Merry Christmas!

Thank you so very much for the nice thought! I genuinely appreciate it; great users like you are the reason I don't lose my mind around this site.  :) A merry Christmas to you! --PMDrive1061 (talk) 19:39, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks & Your Query

I don't know the answer to your question off hand, but will research it. Thanks.--WickerGuy (talk) 23:11, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Well, there was a lot more to come on the Chaplin tramp/barber query as you can now see, but you're welcome anyway.--WickerGuy (talk) 04:00, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
The 'sic' was for the absence of 'to' before "break"- the text really reads "allowed Chaplin break". Thanks for the correction--WickerGuy (talk) 04:07, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Hey, you're from Colorado!

Saw your note on Baseball Bugs, then there's wild inconsistency, a small vandalism like http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Daughter&diff=prev&oldid=405048710 this gets a two-day unlisted block, yet problem editors with much more destructive edits, we have to hand-wring about. Perplexed. Happy new year!--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 03:55, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

Happy, happy

Happy New Year, and all the best to you and yours! Bzuk (talk) 08:07, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

Why?

Hi. Tell me about this please. --John (talk) 01:13, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Actually I have figured it out and it isn't as daft as I thought. Before I checked I thought it added an Easter egg link to [[Film in the UK|United Kingdom]] or something of the sort. Apologize for bothering you and for the slightly abrupt tone of the previous. Best wishes, --John (talk) 02:10, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Great Expectations

I was about to revert that edit too and then noticed that Herbert Pocket is repeated many times in the article. Slightsmile (talk) 01:07, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Good point that it's far away from previous mentions. Better to leave it like that. Slightsmile (talk) 01:32, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Belated Xmas

I never noticed the Xmas message you left on my talk page until this evening. Thanks very much! I hope you had a good Christmas and new year! Bradley0110 (talk) 19:18, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Can you take a look at the quote that was just added to the "critical reception" section of this article and tell me what you think? It seems to be a good source, but I do not think the quote really adds anything that has not already been said. I am also troubled by the bracketed comments, which seem to come from the editor, not the source, indicating that the quote is quite old. As such, I do not find it terribly illuminating. Cheers! ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 20:39, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Happy 10th Anniversary of Wikipedia!

Thank you!

Thanks for the kind thought. Funny, but a combination of a head cold, too much whiskey, and too many cigars last night have left me depleted today. Virtual whiskey will have to do for a while. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 21:34, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

ModerateTy/Awesomerperson97

Thanks for your note. My feeling is that this guy will continue to be a problem. The quick creation of the new account, in order to continue his POV edits, as well as his defensive, and self-justifying, attitude, are a bad sign. But, I should assume good faith, right? It's just that, sometimes, you end up feeling like a chump. Perhaps an admin. will set him straight.

Thanks for the thought about the country house. Someday... Cheers! ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 19:18, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks...

...for the revert on my talk page.--Jojhutton (talk) 16:50, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
