Third Opinion

Hi, I was looking through requests for a third opinion and saw your contributions to Eternal Lands. Overall, I think your approach is fine, however could I suggest you put more emphasis on requiring other persons to provide citations. What I'm suggesting is that you emphasise the disputed paragraph lacks any citation and therefore is unencyclopedic. This is less contentious to saying that someone else's opinion obviously isn't NPOV and encourages others to improve the article by finding appropriate references in the media.

Grigori Perelman

It was very rude of you to ignore the flag and destroy my revision in progress. ---User:CH 20:48, 22 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is an apology for my mistake (and it was a mistake--not intentional) on both the Grigori Perelman and User:CH pages. Tanyia 20:25, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki Capitalization conventions (arrgh!)

Thanks for the fix on the gray horse page...however, at the time I did the edit, the "official" page was using the (very annoying) Wikipedia convention of capitalizing only the first word of a compound name, i.e. "American quarter horse." When capitalizing links that aren't capitalized in the article, you can accidentally create a red link. (Trust me, I learnd that from experience!) So FYI when fixing links--always test them!

I see someone has since made the correctly capitalized American Quarter Horse page the main one and did a redirect on the other (see the "what links here" section to see which pages link to the old redirected page), and good for them!

Anyway, looks like you are doing good work overall. Be careful to take a good look at what has been done before wading in, and have a little patience with stylistic differences, but it's good to see your energy and good wfforts! Montanabw 03:19, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're doing fine!

Don't sweat the red link, that's why we call can edit. I count myself fortunate that others periodically catch my typos, misspellings, red links, etc. It's usually inadvertent, and you are not in any way "bad" to have missed something here and there.

That said, you DO have a habit of putting punctuation outside of quotation marks. While I know some Wiki editors seem to feel there are situations where that's OK, most manuals of style, common convention, and a better visual appearance all suggest leaving it inside quotes under nearly all circumstances. (The exceptions being rare enough and debatable enough to not be worth fussing over.) JMO.

Really, overall, you're doing well. FYI if you have time and energy, if you want a project that needs serious organizational help, try the equestrianism page! The western saddle article still needs work, too, I can't find a western equitation article, and the "horse breaking" article, well, see for yourself and wade in at your own risk (unless you too are a major Monty Roberts fan...) .Montanabw 21:06, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Horse breaking

You see what I mean...the page is not well done and has only one POV, with a very protective owner who is a Monty Roberts aficionado (That's what the references to Rarey are all about...)

Keep plugging away...!Montanabw 18:05, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
