Hello there.  Thanks for participating in this discussion.  I posted a reply to your input on the discussion page, and was hoping that you might read it over and respond.  thanks again. [[User:TheRingess|TheRingess]] 17:50, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
:You were brilliant in there, Pinball.  You "get" this wikipedia thing.  I really enjoyed reading what you wrote and I'm glad the discussion went off on a tangent like that, it really stripped things down to some basic questions about what we're doing here.  I have to give credit to TheRingess tho, he was equally brilliant and it was a stimulating debate!  It reminded me of playing that game [[Phoenix Wright]] and TheRingess was playing the Edgeworth role.  Well... I hope they keep the article!  -- [[User:GIR|GIR]] 05:27, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

== Don't worry about the other one ==

Don't worry about the other one- when I saw your message I did it myself. Only administrators can delete the resulting redirect that the Move Page function leaves on the userpage, so I did it for you. Keep up the good work :-) --[[User:Deskana|Deskana]] [[User talk:Deskana|<small>(For Great Justice!)</small>]] 20:41, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

==RE:5.6.7.8==
Fair enough, I apologise for the error. Sadly, those of us who are regular [[WP:NPP|newpage patrollers]] see thousands of music and band-related articles every day, most of which are junk or self-publicity; thus, occasionally we make mistakes and a good article gets accidentally tagged for deletion (or vice versa, a bad one slips through the net). [[User:Walton monarchist89|Walton monarchist89]] 19:48, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

==Bill Griggs article==
I read the 'like a resume' tag. I don't have a conflict of interest and I the information I wrote is supported by/cited in the sites listed in external links. Can you suggest what should be done to make it less resume-like? Is it the information itself or is it the words/tone?
<br>-[[User:Scratchdawg|Scratchdawg]] 15:09, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
:It's more the tone/style -- it's not terrible, just needs some work.  The big thing that makes it jump out as having a problem is the lack of an introduction; check out [[WP:LAYOUT|the guide to layout]] for some suggestions about how to make a good intro.  Without an opening paragraph that lets the reader know who we're talking about and why he's notable, it reads like a resume in that it's just a list of things about his life and accomplishments.  Feel free to remove the tag once you've added an introduction, and just let me know if you need any help.  Thanks for contributing to the Wikipedia! :) -- [[User:Pinball22|Pinball22]] 15:27, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
::I added an introduction which I consider neutral. I removed the tag but if you feel it still needs to be there I guess just add it again.
:::That looks good.  Thanks! [[User:Pinball22|Pinball22]] 19:06, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

==[[Boki Bean]]==
I agree that the [[Boki Bean]] article is probably a hoax -- I didn't find any information about anything named that on Google, or anything relevant about anyone named Gregor Handel.  However, being a hoax is not one of the [[WP:CSD|criteria for speedy deletion]] -- see [[WP:HOAX]] for more information about why.  I've replaced the speedy tax with a hoax tag and a proposed deletion.  Just a minor procedural thing, but I wanted to let you know why I changed it. [[User:Pinball22|Pinball22]] 19:33, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank you Pinball...appreciate the advice on the proper way of handling.  Have a great day. [[User:Shoessss|Shoessss]] 19:36, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

==Reverting vandalism==
Thanks for your efforts in tackling vandalism.  However, it's sometimes easy to accidentally revert ''one'' anon edit to the previous version which also contains vandalism &ndash; in such cases it is necessary to revert to ''two or more'' anon edits to an earlier version.  See [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ElgooG&action=history ElgooG history] (2007-03-05) for an example where you missed this! :-)   [[User:MightyWarrior|MightyWarrior]] 17:31, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

I was editing the EuroGAP page and you moved it! Which is alright, because I was about to do the same thing ;) . Just lost some of the internal linking I was going to do, but that's easily recreated. Anyways, keep on categorizing! [[User:Kurrurrin|Kurrurrin]] 16:36, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

== Excellent piece of work ==

Hi - can I just say that I thought your recent comments on AN/I about what should and should not be in a wikipedia article were excellent - I really think you should work them up into an essay. --[[User:Fredrick day|Fredrick day]] 12:52, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

==DoB==

Thanks for your note. Well, yes, I have looked at this page for the very first time, very interesting! Up to now I have created my contribution in the same style as I have seen on many other pages. And I really like to include "born" and "died", because that looks much nicer - to me... Also I like to include the place of birth/death into the bracket. So it is much easier to see this information at first glance. I hope this is not a problem. :) [[User:Doma-w|Doma-w]] 00:25, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the compliment. It just occurred to me while I was reading it that it could create some unnecessary confusion. [[User:Daniel Case|Daniel Case]] 15:19, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

== Heh Heh ==
Yeah, that article about bill fehling, that was a joke my friends played. thank's for getting rid of it. :)

== wow... ==

that was a lot of writing. And i appreciate you taking the time to write it. But I must say that I know this information from the guy who owns the fucking company, I mean that is pretty reliable. And, I mean, sourcing every single thing is tedious and really is not needed. Some things people just know. And who knows if any sources are correct, I could go out of my way to create a whole Alfred Dunner website and have it be completely fake. --[[User:TTNJ|TTNJ]] 19:49, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
==Response to back closures==
I'm sorry but I do not own a digital camera. That is why I have no picture for this article. I have plenty of clothes with back closures that would otherwise make excellent photo examples. It's too bad I can't use them. I do not have permission to use the pictures of such clothes in online catalogs either; these would otherwise look perfect too. 
I just learned about Wikipedia this year. I've been searching online for websites that I can use for references in this article. They are hard to find. Websites make the best references, because a link can be provided straight to them. For a printed book, it is much harder to fill in the information needed.

By the way, my son has Diaz-Fedder syndrome, a rare condition that is like autism. One problem he has is he is sensitive to having clothes on his body. When there are any on him, he does anything he can to take them off, like a drowning person panicking to come to the surface for air. The only way to keep him dressed is to put clothes on him he cannot take off himself. For a boy, these are hard to find. I had some back-zipping jumpsuits custom made that look boy-like. For extra security, I put a safety pin underneath the zipper pull tab, blocking the zipper from being pulled down. It sounds strange, but he is smart; he talks like a normal person and does well in special ed. [[User:Jumpygirl|Jumpygirl]] 15:34, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

==My RfA==
Thank you for participating in my [[Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/FisherQueen_2|RfA]].  It was successful, and I am now, may God have mercy on us all, an administrator.  Look at all the new buttons!  I had heard about 'protect,' 'block user,' and 'delete,' but no one told me about 'kill,' 'eject,' and 'purée.'  I appreciate the trust the community has in me, and I'll try hard not to delete [[Main page|the main page]] or block [[User:Jimmy Wales|Jimbo]].    -[[User:FisherQueen|FisherQueen]] ([[User talk:FisherQueen|Talk]]) 18:19, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

== The AfD for Running Gags on ATH ==

Thanks for the comments.  I do have a question, though - if Biggspowd is blocked, how can he instigate an AfD?  This really bothers me, especially since his userpage says that he left Wikipedia in June... [[User:Willbyr|Willbyr]] ([[User_talk:Willbyr|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Willbyr|contribs]]) 17:12, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
:He wasn't blocked at the time he started the AfD -- the block didn't happen until about four hours later.  (You can see the block log for a user by going to their contributions and clicking on the Block log link at the top.) Apparently he never bothered to change his userpage after returning from retirement in June. [[User:Pinball22|Pinball22]] 17:22, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

== IRC cloaks ==

I did that thing with the nickserv, but what I didn't do was enter a new password, so I ended up registering "Spebi" with the [blank], and so I changed my nickname to "Spebi_enwiki" and then registered it with a proper password and email address, but apparently it still shows my IP. I'd prefer to have the chat over Wikipedia or email rather than on IRC, because it's too confusing, uh.
