Hi, please provide a source that Ted Patrick is deceased. --Tilman 05:29, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you. Sorry for delay, due to Wikipedia being locked during an update. My mistake (fixed)--a case of writing one thing, while thinking of another (West, Singer, Hadden). Do you think it's worth marking key figures of all sides as deceased (if that is the case)?--Kibbitzer 06:42, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- Honestly, I have no opinion. I have been writing to you just because I thought that maybe Ted Patrick is indeed deceased, and you had some sort of info. He has faded into obscurity. --Tilman 16:39, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- I am actively checking and will let you know one way or another. Re: those deceased since an article was last updated: Perhaps in such a case we could designate the person deceased and adjust the tense accordingly. E.g., "Jeffrey Hadden is..." to "Jeffrey Hadden (deceased) was..." --Kibbitzer 18:22, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
- Google shows that he was active in local San Diego politics as of 2004. No further info.--Kibbitzer 05:02, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
Cult suicide
Nicely done.[1]. Cheers, -Will Beback 07:53, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you, Will. A very sad outcome for all parties. It is my desire (and I'm sure a shared desire of many) that Wikipedia can provide the helpful exchange and compilation of information that will avert any future Wacos.--Kibbitzer 02:27, 2 May 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) 20:26, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 5
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Karen Zerby, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Children of God. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
