23:20, 25 September 2005 (UTC) I'm on an enforced wikibreak for the next three or four days. I'll be camping somewhere in what's left of Sherwood Forest and apparently we're not taking any LAN connections. Assuming I don't eat the wrong mushroom, I expect to return smelling of wood smoke on Wednesday or Thursday :-) ~ Veledan • Talk + new 23:20, 25 September 2005 (UTC) |

19:01, 17 August 2005 (UTC) Just added my multi-licence tag. I have to admit, I wasn't expecting many laughs while I was reading up on the various licenses, but I did come across this gem: The link goes to the version before I (spoilsport) fixed it, but I couldn't let this version be lost to Wikipedia unlinked. |

23:04, 14 August 2005 (UTC) I've been disambiguating or dabing recently, i.e. redirecting all the links that point to disambiguation pages to each specific page that suits their context. I wouldn't do more than slip in a tearful and frustrated link here to the problems dab'ing Period, but Vatican conspiracy theories and other references to an occult Vatican are also things I could do with guidance on. Just who is Jack Chick accusing of plotting World Wars I and II? Is it the Holy See or the Roman Curia or the Vatican City who send immortal action heroes out in numerous (I find) films and comic books? Who is it that conspires in so many murders, and just which Vatican will be excommunicating star systems from essentially political protection in the year 3000? I begin to wonder if a new article, Vatican (urban legend) or even Vatican (fantasy) isn't needed, and that we should be dab'ing all those kind of things to it.. but I don't feel competent to write it, and if I did I'd have to go back and undo hundreds of disambiguations, and even then the writers of the articles that refer to it would change the link: they'd point out that they meant the real Vatican, not that urban legend article, that's only for stories that aren't true... etc. Solutions or offers to write the page welcome on my talk page :-) |

22:03, 14 August 2005 (UTC) I did spend ages figuring out how to turn my signature to this: But then I saw just how disruptive six lines of formatting code can be to talk page edit boxes if you leave a couple of comments! Sorry to anyone who bore the brunt of my signatures till I reverted it a day or two later back to plain old: |
