Coasters answer

Thanks very much. That site answered my questions.—Chowbok ☠ 18:07, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your reply in the RD

Thanks for your (several :)) replies to my question in the Humanities RD. --Taraborn (talk) 08:47, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm... by the way... Is there any book about the subject that you particularly like? --Taraborn (talk) 11:07, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just ordered that book from Amazon. Can't thank you enough for your advice :D ! --Taraborn (talk) 16:14, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Antonomasia

Thank you very much! But it's not quite what I'm looking for. The definition of Antonomasia seems to be when you replace the proper name of someone with a kind of expression, so instead of saying "Napoleon" you'd call him "The little corporal". What I'm after is when a famous person's name is used as a descriptor, from which you'd understand a personality trait. Eg, calling a little girl "a Lolita" or calling someone's efforts "Herculean" --Dweller (talk) 22:48, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Aha! OK, nice one. Now you're talking. --Dweller (talk) 23:16, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I name-dropped you...

... at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Archetypal name. Cheers again. --Dweller (talk) 10:45, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, it took half a second. Cheers, jwillbur 21:30, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

book covering

Hi, thanks for your answer on book covering. Can you also please tell me how long it will take for the solvent to dry out, and how long it takes for this to happen? Do you know if there is any hope of them solving this problem? Thanks, and regards, 203.221.127.114 (talk) 02:26, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here is an example of the kind of stain that an adhesive can leave on a book as the solvent dries out. This was left by (I think) Sellotape on a copy of "Brave New World" dated 1960. So, it takes a period of years for the solvent to dry out, but if you love a book, you may end up keeping it for that long! SaundersW (talk) 14:39, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

thanks for the advice and the picture. I think I've seen stains like that, and depending on the book, I may have to live with them, since the alternative for paperbacks is to let the edges warp and peel, not much better, and a quicker way to ruin them also. 203.221.126.206 (talk) 05:54, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pankhurst

Thank you very much for that scan! Interesting, and a nice sketch by the architect. The final monument did come out a little bit differently, though: they omitted the "bowls" at the ends of the half-rotunda, and the two plaques are facing inwards. A pity the brochure isn't in the public domain! Anyway, I'm still looking... Lupo 09:21, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Sir John Henry Fludyer, 4th Baronet (May 17)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by DGG was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Not notable, unless one makes the assumption that all English 19th century Baronets are notable

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Sir John Henry Fludyer, 4th Baronet and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Sir John Henry Fludyer, 4th Baronet, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
