Hello!

Hello! I saw you come on Wikipedia because there is a running log of new accounts that are being formed. I am not an administrator, but I am involved in creating articles, welcoming new members, new page patrol, and CSD and AfD activities. Cheers. Ecoleetage (talk) 21:56, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How many of those you need to become adm?

Reference on Retirement due to urging of wife and manager is correct

Certain user (mkilahole) a disturbed individual, irrational vandal removed this reference, but if he wants it gone no problem, let the article be incomplete as are all of his edits: I have the file but due to copyright standards you can do your own search.

Reporting problems about bothersome editors

If you have a problem with one of the editors here, go to WP:ANI and report your problems there. Thanks. Ecoleetage (talk) 01:14, 11 August 2008

WP ani is wikipedos' playground!

I think every administrator must edit once a week to remain one!

Thanx but certain editors know other administrators (all are bad, some are good but they are afraid to risk their 'precious wikipedoposition'), it will be futile, i'd even get banned, lol, too many people here have too much power, the point is, you cant attack them alone, since they have associates and sorry-ass excuses all the time, sad but true! Not only that, my post would be taken down, even if i was 100% correct, I believe each editor should give real name - it would be good, thus to avoid attacks or confronations, there were times i was accused of vandalizing wiki and i never did, but there were people who did it in my name or somebody i might have known or played sports with...wikipedia ignorance has no limits! Hmmm, may be i broke civility rule? LOL http://www.geocities.com/wikipediamistakescorrected/BoxingWear.txt Mirandamir (talk) 19:55, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 19:42, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rockabilly

While it seems obvious that rockabilly is the combination of 2 words from rock n roll and hillbilly, I don't see where you could possibly be getting the word "rock" from rhythm and blues. You are trying to change something that at least two editors have agreed on, and also something that has stood in that article for "a long time". As both rhythm and blues - which is really defined by the fact that is was made by black people - was changing, the same thing was happening to music by white "country" or "hillbilly" musicians. Rock n roll was just a new term for what was already being done. The word rockabilly is a word that was applied to music. Try to understand the difference between the word itself and the people that made the music, how it came about, and how it can be characterized. Steve Pastor (talk) 20:01, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Click on the Rhythm and Blues lonk to read about that "kind of music". Again, it was a word made up by people who sold records, etc, and is different than contemporary R&B. Steve Pastor (talk) 20:05, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's the comment you should have written me long ago, constructive criticism is ok with me, as long as there is no provocation. Sure, I know, EVERYTHING YOU TOLD ME I KNOW REAL WELL. I was simply trying to make a point, we need a paragraph on rhythm and blues, if you read my article you would have realized i meant rhythm and blues was there from the beginning and eventually rockabilly came from that, duh! I never, mentioned anything on black people, there were whites who played it as well, heck, there was rhythm in blues in Canada as well, but like I said the term was more popular than rock n roll coined by Freed, in other words, Freed used that term because more white people kept on playing but in reality it was rhythm n blues! Just because something is somewhere for a long time does not mean it's correct!

Of course, even Britannica says rockabilly is hard to define, but it had word rock in it, good rhythm, but not fully rock n roll, if you add drums, then you have it:

http://www.britannica.com/blogs/2006/12/rockabilly/ Mirandamir (talk) 21:26, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And you're missing the point. The reason you kept getting reverted is because the sentence you were changing dealt with the word "Rockabilly" not the concept. Can't you understand that? You really should have looked up "portmanteau" before you began an edit war.MKil (talk) 21:30, 19 August 2008 (UTC)MKil[reply]

~~You really don't get it, do you? The sentence was about how the word "rockabilly" came to be created. Do you not see that?MKil (talk) 21:36, 19 August 2008 (UTC)MKil~~[reply]

Again mkil's comment has been explained properly, that word portmanteau is appropriate but not in the first paragraph, first paragraph must always explain the case or the article, summary!

Windows waste

DLL links, miscrosoft keeps on making stupid vista, new versions windows every two years, just to make money, when you try to update it, kernel memory crashes down,(I had to fix other computers too) i c no problem with windows xp or even previous versions, no hassle! {{{ BoxingWear - BWear - Miranda }}} (talk) 18:55, 21 August 2008 (UTC) 18:55, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

edits at de facto

Hi, I started a discussion at Talk:De_facto#recent_edits_by_User:MKil_and_User:Mirandamir in hopes that you could work things out on the discussion page rather than rving on the page. Pdbailey (talk) 02:30, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, keep see also, but autocratic is essential in the article!'

{{{ BoxingWear - BWear - Miranda }}} (talk) 00:45, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

: How nice being banned, that means i get the best of wikipedos, but i have nothing to do with the users banned, just because i might have known them at one time or another, lol, thanx for good banning job, keep it up!

Certainly a draw

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Kosovo&diff=237017367&oldid=236979065 certainly its a draw as evidence indicates, this vandal mkil does not get it, it's pyrrhic victory, not one battle by itself! However, no wonder no colelge uses wikipedia as source:

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/21/education/21wikipedia.html

http://media.www.marquettetribune.org/media/storage/paper1130/news/2006/02/16/News/Wikipedia.n.An.Unreliable.Source-2625322.shtml Cuation is given not to use it. But if they want to argue over whats right or if certain user is more senior over another, fine, enjoy wrong articles!http://media.www.marquettetribune.org/media/storage/paper1130/news/2006/02/16/News/Wikipedia.n.An.Unreliable.Source-2625322.shtml there are many more!

As far as the atomic smasher of yesterday, it's money waste!@

-Right now kosovo battle article looks right, unlike mkil's vandalisms!http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battle_of_Kosovo&diff=238176171&oldid=238013481 as others did what i did

Stop the harassment

Gogi, you need to stop harassing me, and the others. I'm quite serious about this. I'm including this kind of nonsense. I will now block the remainder of your sockpuppets. It's also high time to restore your deleted long-term abuse pages, don't you think? Antandrus (talk) 21:04, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
