About Signatures
[edit]Having the UTC time zone in your signature is the correct behaviour in Wikipedia. It's done this way to avoid confusion about the order in which people made their comments. Having different users from several different time zones making comments would be terribly confusing, so that's why they're all set to the same time zone. I believe that displaying the time in your local time zone is only supposed to occur in the article history and the watchlist. Personally, I leave my time zone in personal preferences to UTC just so I don't get confused between the two, but it's up to you how you set your own preferences. Cheers, Deathphoenix ʕ 18:20, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- No problem, I was confused the first time I saw it too. --Deathphoenix ʕ 18:35, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
Greetings from Lgriot
[edit]Welcome to the world of registered wikipedians. Hope you enjoy your work here even more. Lgriot 19:50, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Please stop adding comic book characters to this category. There is the more specific Category:Comic book mothers which is more appropriate. Please change all of the articles you've edited to this more specific cat. CovenantD 19:47, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
- I didn't know that, so you needn't be short. Of course I'll change them. Noneofyourbusiness 23:04, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
Greetz
[edit]Hi. Just wanted to drop you a note, saying Hi, from one of the Charmed maintainers :)
Edriss 562
[edit]I'm not quite sure of that host's human name, either. I know that there was an original name and that Edriss 562 changed it to someone else. The guy calls her "Brother Lore," so the new name has to include "Lore" or something, but I remember "David Altman" as being part of the original name. Do you have a copy of Visser on your so we can confirm? Hbdragon88 18:12, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- No, I changed it because it looked like an obvious typo. I have every Animorph book except Visser, unfortunately. Do you have a copy? Noneofyourbusiness 18:15, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
Namesake
[edit]I agree with your rewording of Psi Corps's use of "namesake", but you might note that "namesake" can legitimately be used for any matching-name relationship. Per Merriam-Webster Online:
- namesake (noun) : one that has the same name as another; especially : one who is named after another or for whom another is named
wikt:namesake concurs. Still, as the special meaning is probably most common and often implied, your phrasing is clearer. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 23:44, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
Just wanted to say
[edit]I very much like what you did with the P. Russel and P. Bowen pages. It's good to see somebody else makes redirects with categories attached becasue they like the category pages to be comprehensive. ~ZytheTalk to me! 15:18, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
Megamorphs 2
[edit]Quote from the Anibase: "The note was written in to cover up her error."--Lkjhgfdsa 19:20, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
- You sure that's a canonical source? Noneofyourbusiness 22:09, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
- It's from the Scholastic website.--Lkjhgfdsa 21:01, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- Not from the author. The people at Scholastic publish the books, they don't create the Animorphs universe. Noneofyourbusiness 21:11, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- It's from the Scholastic website.--Lkjhgfdsa 21:01, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
Very good work ... {{cite episode}} is just how it should be done! OTOH, I'm still not comfortable with "The reason for this is not known." which seems unencyclopedic to me ... I mean, why raise an unanswerable question?
How about, "once took the Mensa test and passed it, but for unknown reasons never joined." and we delete the other sentence? —Dennette (talk · contribs) 06:07, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
Deletion of categories
[edit]I thought you might like to comment at WP:CFD#Category:Computer_and_video_game_villains as well, seeing as you opined at the other villain categories. 03:35, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Immortality
[edit]Please discuss this at WP:BSG as they are not immortal, and I'd prefer not to edit war. thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 21:13, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
help us Noneofyourbusiness, you're our only hope
[edit]I noticed that you had voted to keep the category of Fictional Characters by Superpower on the march 7th CFD. Just in case you didn't yet notice, Raidant!'s decision to listify them was put up for review, and another vote started on the 14th. It seems those of us in favor of keeping the categories are losing the debate, and I was hoping you could lend your voice once more so we can keep them --Piemanmoo 20:10, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Request for edit summary
[edit]When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 04:14, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
Random tagging
[edit]Your running around tagging everyone with a certain name as Irish with total disregard of the characters actual history. You tagged a Greek as Irish. Not all characters are what they seem. Do you have any knowledge of Days of our Lives or are you just tagging all the characters with the last name of Brady?IrishLass0128 13:27, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit]D&D articles for Wikipedia 0.7
[edit]Hi there! :)
As someone who's worked on D&D and/or RPG articles before, I'm inviting you to participate in our goal to both improve articles that have been selected to be placed in the next Wikipedia DVD release, as well as nominate more to be selected for this project. Please see the WikiProject D&D talk page for more details. :) BOZ (talk) 15:54, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Day of the Clown. Since you had some involvement with the Day of the Clown redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion (if you have not already done so). -- Suntag ☼ 09:26, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
Esther
[edit]Hi Noneofyourbusiness, the source was [1] back when it was discussing "Esther Katusi". I don't know whether you think this should go into the casting information yet. I suppose if the trait gets changed, then it will provide interesting background to include it. If it doesn't, then it will find its way in anyway.~ZytheTalk to me! 20:38, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
Please be aware that adding unreferenced material about supposed mistakes on a CD case is not appropriate encyclopedic material as per clear policy. ╟─TreasuryTag►Subsyndic General─╢ 12:52, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
August 2011
[edit] You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Doctor Who: Original Television Soundtrack – Series 4: The Specials. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.
In particular, the three-revert rule states that:
- Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. ╟─TreasuryTag►Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster─╢ 12:53, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Hi. When you recently edited Disturbing Behavior, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Susan Hogan (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of Angel & Faith
[edit]Hello Noneofyourbusiness,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Angel & Faith for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. Take a look at our suggestions for essential content in short articles to learn what should be included.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 00:00, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

"Blond" versus "blonde"
[edit]Both "blonde" and "blond" can be either an adjective or a noun per any number of dictionaries. They are variants of each other. Your edits to change them to your preferred version constitute edit warring, and you need to stop. Regarding the content of the edits, please do not make edits where you are only changing the spelling of a word when both are perfectly acceptable. If you really want to change them, take the discussion to the talk page and gain consensus for your change. Any further changes like this may result in your being blocked from editing. Editing on Wikipedia must be done by consensus, especially when people obviously disagreee with what you want to do.
