Your page is no longer empty

Can't you just let it go five past, and then leave those five for the next archive, like I do? ;) — $PЯINGεrαgђ 18:53, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot you move yours…you could just copy+paste them after you move, though? — $PЯINGεrαgђ 23:56, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I like it very much. — $PЯINGεrαgђ 23:58, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RfA

I considered not spamming talk pages but not saying "thanks" just isn't me. The support was remarkable and appreciated. I only hope that I am able to help a little on here. Please let me know if I can help you or equally if you find any of my actions questionable. Thanks & regards --Herby ^{talk thyme} 13:09, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RfAr

Indeed, I was just about to comment on that. Thank you for the note. Biruitorul (talk) 02:15, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for opening this RfAr, if I had a barnstar I would give it to you for straightforward action. -- AdrianTM (talk) 02:37, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Chat Moss

Thanks for the GA review of Chat Moss, particularly as you saw fit to pass it. :) --Malleus Fatuarum (talk) 20:02, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What the hell?

Those images took me ages, they were better quality and showed better progression of narrative. Why have you changed EVERYTHING that I contributed? What's the point in that, I ask you? Am I even using this right? User:Queeq 01:32, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What push POV?

What, where and how is POV pushing? You obviously have to have your reasons and explanations for your assumed POV pushing. I'm ready to hear you. Mulţam'--Cezarika f. (talk) 15:40, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article said quite clear that Moldovans are identical with Romanians. I can speak Romanian and I see no difference between "Moldovan" and Romanian.--Mulţam'--Cezarika f. (talk) 15:45, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RfA

I thought about it, but I wasn't sure how to do it. Am I supposed to be invited, or can I simply sign in under "Involved parties", and then confirm I am aware of the request? Sorry if this sounds a bit silly or naive, but I haven't been really involved in any RfA before -- it's not something I enjoy doing (I rather go my merry way editing), but sometimes a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. :) Turgidson (talk) 15:48, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

M62 motorway

You are not the ultimate judge of what should go into a Wikipedia article. I have expanded the section on rugby league somewhat. Everything is referenced and there is nothing that could be called "POV". If you can't live with the addition of a sentence or two then I suggest you take it to dispute resolution or request for comment.GordyB (talk) 11:27, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Does this affect you?

Or have you heard about it?--CJ King (talk) 18:41, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AN/I notice re. Johnny Sutton

Hi. I was just alerted on my talk page that the discussion was started by a banned user. So sorry for reverting you and I support your re-deleting it as trolling. I incorrectly thought it was a good faith but misguided notice, in which case it would be better to preserve somehow for the record in case the issue or the people involved ever came up again.

Road sign templates

Hi, Noticed your work on these. Should we code the line break into it as it is only used in the infobox? Regan123 (talk) 16:51, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

line breaks and road icons

I think the {{ukroadsmall}} template must have been amended before and since I did my "tidying up" of various road infoboxes, or there was some sort of glitch - they were displaying really badly, with the icons in white unformatted boxes, as if preceded by a space,and looked OK (like they do now) when I'd finished. Thanks for clearing up various roads I've inadvertently mssed up. PamD (talk) 18:57, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, now spotted remark above about line breaks. If it's coded into the template it's difficult to add a comment/alternative name for a road, such as the 2 ringroads in A660_road - where I now see the M58 doesn't work, while it did yesterday! Aaargh! (Actually I think I "subst"ed the template in order to fiddle the ring road note into it) PamD (talk) 19:03, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Another thought: how about an optional parameter to allow for a comment or name for the road (eg "Opening 2008", as well as "Leeds Outer Ring Road")? PamD (talk) 08:25, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please explain impactural

"it's not impactural, just a note of interest". A song by a group or artist inspired by the M62 is considered impactural; however a book by a writer inspired by the M62 isn't.... that's not consistent; please explain your reasoning. Johndavies.liverpool (talk) 09:14, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ok, seriously...

...do you wiki-stalk me in that TARDIS of yours? K. Lásztocska^talk 16:42, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Impactural continued

Hi. I don't have anything agaisnt your blog - it's an iteresting read. What I mean is that there's really no indication that the M62 had an impact - you could've walked the M6, M4, M53, whereas with the rugby, and the songs, the M62 has had some impact (such as John Shuttleworth's and Kathryn William's songs both directly refer to the farm).

Yes, I could have walked another road ... but I didn't, I walked the M62 ... HOME ... two indications of an 'impact' there, or I would say a sense of importance to me... And yes those songs refer to the farm. If you read the book / blog you'll see I spent a whole day there with the farmer... Johndavies.liverpool (talk) 00:19, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for keeping an eye on the articles he was vandalising. I have to go offline for a bit, but leave me a message if needs be and I'll be happy to block any of his WP:ATTACK crew who turn up in the meantime. --Bradeos Graphon (talk) 18:30, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You made this edit as you said it was vandalism. I'm just wondering how this is so? --Fuelboy (talk) 20:04, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm feeling obnoxious, snarky, sarcastic, and all that good stuff today—can you tell? :P By the way I'm still dosing…will probably drop off to sleep all the way soon.

Labeling the reverts as vandalism is really inappropriate, regardless of the motive. Corvus cornix_talk 21:40, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe that for a moment. Vandalism is all intent. Corvus cornix_talk 21:43, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
