Please add new stuff at the top, so I see it first.  Thanx, --Bob.


Welcome to wikipedia! I'm sure you'll find plenty to do here. Some of the contributors are experts, but many (like me) aren't--just people with hobbies and interests, and scattered trivia to contribute. Cheers, --KQ


Hi Bob; I noticed you've been making some links to NTSC standard. That article's basically a dupe of the more expansive NTSC, so I've made it a redirect to that existing article. (I left the former contents of NTSC standard in Talk:NTSC so anyone who wants to integrate remaining tidbits can easily do so.) In the case of things like NTSC and JPEG where the acronym of a committee or standards group has become synonymous with the standard, it's generally accepted to use that common name for the article about the standard; articles about the committees themselves would most likely use the expanded names, such as North American Television Standards Committee and Joint Photographic Experts Group. --Brion 04:00 Sep 12, 2002 (UTC)


Take a look at Talk:Byte/Prefixes. Quite the mess it's created. --KQ 03:42 Oct 14, 2002 (UTC)

Hey Bob!

...fancy finding you here. I've been mucking around with Vancouver history mostly, but at some point I ended up in Elmira, so it was on my "watch" list and your name showed up. -Lani, a.k.a, Bobanny 06:24, 27 October 2006 (UTC) (but don't tell anyone my secret identity)Reply

Secret identity? Then don't be posting your name, silly! I don't think I have your e-mail address; can you e-mail me? bjonkman@sobac.com --Bob 06:03, 28 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
D'oh! Okay, it's only a little bit secret.Bobanny 07:02, 28 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of KW Linuxfest

Hello Bob Jonkman,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged KW Linuxfest for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
