Odd redirects

I've noticed that you've made quite a few redirects to the page number, and frankly, it seems like it would be extremely unlikely that anyone would actually search for "10000000 (number)," and if they did, the redirect should be to whatever that number is. I'm prepared to either send your redirects to WP:RFD or just delete them outright under CSD R3, but I'll give you a chance to respond first. --Mr. Lefty (talk) 01:41, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects to outer space

You appear to have created a number of redirects to outer space with names such as White dwarf colonization. These don't seem to relate to the same topic, and therefore it is likely that these redirects will be deleted. Please refer to the welcome page for more information on what Wikipedia is, and how to create and edit good articles. If you continue to create redirects or articles which appear to be aimed at disrupting Wikipedia, this could be deemed vandalism. PLEASE STOP! -- MightyWarrior 12:22, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add personal insults to talk pages; do you realise that usernames and anonymous edits can be tracked? -- MightyWarrior 12:54, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I've deleted most of your additions of number and year redirects from last week, which are clearly repeats (with differenet numbers and years) of those you've done before and had deleted. I'f also reverted your moves of 444 and 888 from "disambiguation" to "number", nominated 12:00 for AfD, and January of 2007 and February of 2007 for RfD. Please don't create nonsense again. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 14:56, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism and AFD on Richard C. Hoagland

The vandalism on the article was completely inappropriate, and your nomination of him just because he's considered a crank is an abuse of the Wikipedia AFD process. The Face on Mars phenomena that he is largely responsible for is, while now known to be really really wrong, quite widely known. We have articles on phenomena like that and people like him because they're historically relevant and important, whether he turned out to be right or wrong.

Please don't do things like this again. Thank you. Georgewilliamherbert 02:27, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

September 2007

Please do not make undiscussed page moves to less appropriate titles (such as with Twentysomething (term) to Twentysomething (age)) or to titles that are harder to follow (such as moving 2006 definition of planet to Definition of planet since August 2006 and then to 2006 and current definition of planet). Wikipedia has specific guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you.

Regarding your edit to God

I see no evidence that God is widely considered a living person in the traditional sense. As such, I've removed the page from the category 'Living People'. If you believe that he should indeed be classified as a living person, please justify your opinion on the article's talk page. --Algebra 16:14, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Colonization of Antarctica

I've been working on developing this article further, and I've been trying to work through the various technical proposals for engineering projects.

Vandalism?

I did not vandalize it. Some people consider teens as kids and some don't. I am a young teen, I consider myself and all others under 18 as kids because me and most of my friends don't see our selves as grown-up. We see it as your either a kid or an adult. Even some young adults are refered to as "those kids" by elders. Well, your probobly an adult since you seem so mature, but there is a Nicktoon(If you don't even know what that is: It's any cartoon produced by kids channels Nickelodeon or Nicktoons Network) called Kappa Mikey were one character said "He's an American kid, just graduated from high school". You may have your opinions, I may have mine. But I think that the answer is that an Adolescent is anyone going through puberty. Some say they are kids, some say not. But there is no right or wrong answer. --Mr. Comedian 20:45, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WOW

Wow, what's that got to do with it. Anyway, I would consider you to be an adult since you are over 18. So, peace bro. --Mr. Comedian 00:15, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well you are legally an adult but I think it's cool that your looking at yourself as more of a late adolescent rather than an early adult --Mr. Comedian 00:09, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

Speedy deletion of Year 170,141,183,460,469,231,731,687,303,715,884,105,727 problem

A tag has been placed on Year 170,141,183,460,469,231,731,687,303,715,884,105,727 problem requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Lifespan of our Sun.

All I'm after is a reference that supports "trillion". Your Google search isn't it. I read the 1st 5 links and none say any kind of trillion for our Sun. Stars have huge differences in ages with our Sun in billions of years (bigger Stars have millions and very small stars are trillions). I have to revert what you are adding as you are not providing a reference in the actual article that supports what Wikipedia says. Sticking references in the talk page isn't where they go. When you add controversial text then you must provide the reference with the text. A google search isn't a reference. The *remaining* life of our Sun is made up of the sum of the various phases though most will just say how many rough billions of years it stays in each phase. In the year 17,000,000,000 (CE/AD) (probably be a Monday - I hate Mondays) thats the end. Ttiotsw (talk) 03:43, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
