Thanks for adding those messages, but do you have sources for them? I'm trying to keep the "Deliberate Messages" section restricted to messages that are known for certain to have been backmasked. Thanks, TheJabberwʘck 21:22, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for replying, but I think the messages either be removed or moved to the Alleged section. In terms of moving them out of the Deliberate section: Although it may sound like they are deliberate, that's not enough to list them as such in an encyclopedia. Many messages that are phonetically audible are in fact random combinations of sounds.
- In terms of whether they should be in the encyclopedia at all: It depends whether you have sources for them. Just hearing them is original research, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. If you can find a source for the existence of the messages, they belong in the encyclopedia. If you can find a source for the deliberateness, they belong in the Deliberate section.

Subcategories
Hi,
It's customary not to add an article to both a category and one of that category's subcategories. So, for example, garum was already in Category:Fish sauce, which is a subcategory of Category:Fermented foods -- so garum shouldn't also be placed directly into Category:Fermented foods. (PS I love Category:Illegal foods, great idea.) —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 22:53, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:21, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
