Moaning Lisa

Could you care to explain your recent edit to Moaning Lisa, i.e adding this:

There's no room for crazy bebop in My Country, 'Tis of Thee.
Among the "unpleasant people" who are not going to be at the recital next week are "the homeless family living out of its car, the Iowa farmer whose land has been taken away by unfeeling bureaucrats, the West Virginia coal miner coughing..."
Lisa refuses to play dodgeball because she is sad.
Homer has feelings, too, like "my stomach hurts" or "I'm going crazy".

To be honest, that looks like complete nonsense. However, it's policy to assume good faith ([[1]]), hence why I'm asking for an explination as opposed to just reverting your edit. Crimson Shadow 14:11, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your interest in my Simpsons additions! I believe the information I provided, if not appropriate for the "Trivia" section, is certainly worthy of "Cultural References". Bebop, homelessness, bureaucracy, coal mining and dodgeball are all cultural phenomena at least on par with Mike Tyson's Punch Out. As for Homer's feelings, the trivia question could easily be, "What are Homer's two feelings?", but if you think that's too much trivia, then go ahead and drop it. Thanks, again, Sansbras 21:58, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That looks a better. I noticed the line about Lisa being sad is in inverted commas, suggesting it's a direct quote from the episode (I haven't seen it in a while). Could you possibly explain this? I don't get it. I've taken the liberty of removing the Homer one since it seems too trivial if you ask me. Also, I'd like to apologise for my rather brash-sounding tone earlier. It was inexcuseable to unleash the Spanish Inquisition on you. Crimson Shadow 22:19, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. The quote "Lisa refuses to play dodgeball because she is sad" is from the note from Lisa's gym teacher. Homer reads it aloud and the note is shown. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help the Simpsons project. Sansbras 22:31, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tony Cline Jr.

Hi, S. I noticed that for the above you referenced 'qualitative economics'] with a link to Qualitative research. The latter might be the better link, but there is a new article called Qualitative economics, which you might want to consider instead. It of course depends on what Tony Cline in fact studied.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
