Thanks for the heads up--changed my vote--eleuthero 18:47, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
I'm adding my commendations too. I sometimes get a little too impulsive when doing RC patrol - thanks for keeping me on my toes. --Bachrach44 19:59, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
First Family of the United States[edit]
Hey, someone redirected the entire First Family of the United States article into First Family. I just wanted to let you know, seeing as more people voted to keep it than to redirect. I'm reposting it. History21 16:56, 20 February 2006 (UTC)History21
This article was nominated for speedy deletion as a biography with no assertion of notability. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? where I won $16000 Australian is an assertion of notability. However, it has been listed for prod as there is little verifiable evidence in a Google search see link title
*** Important - Your input requested ASAP ***[edit]

Could you look at this article Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fred Carama (2nd nomination) ? Thanks for your time. --Strothra 06:15, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
AfD Symbols[edit]
Here are the symbols for further use.
Ballydougan[edit]
Thanks that looks much better than the advert before and therefore, as it is a complete different content, I'll make a comment to that effect on the AfD page.
But are you sure Ballydougan is actually "a town" and not just a name for an area? I couldn't find a reference to that, the pottery etc. seems to be in a town/village named "Craigavon": Ballydougan Pottery, 171 Plantation Road, Craigavon, Co Armagh BT63 5NN
In any case thanks for your help Optimale Gu 11:12, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Advance Australia..[edit]
I had a big almanac of events in Australian in 1989 with a list of dates in the back. I'm not sure how reliable it is.--Peta 04:47, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
AFD - Aquinas College stuff[edit]
Yes, while i respect your opinion - the college dux is verifiable via the Aquinas College annual from that respective year. Alot of the information on that article is from primary sources and i am willing to accept that, but it is all verifiable and i believe it should be on the Aquinas College page on wikipedia.

Carl XIV Gustaf[edit]
I understand that the item seems silly, but the King is not just a simple "supporter", but an honorary member by long tradition where the King is expected to represent the club on official occasions. The news that he personally cares more for the revaling club brings with it complicated implications. That's why this was top news item of the day. Thanks for your care. --Camptown 10:22, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Afd Noel Gray[edit]
Thanks for your contribution and for listing this in the Australian log. I was closely associated with Telectronics from 1964 -1988 and a good friend of the late Noel Gray. Sadly, some 14 years after his resignation from the company he and son Chris elected to rewrite history in a private booklet "Telectronics The Early Years" which angered many. It is my opinion that Noel's contribution in co-founding and funding the initial years of the company's research and development is worthy of recognition by way of a Wikipedia article. I, and several others, could write or rewrite the article objectively; but, it seems that would be contradictory to the requirement for a neutral point of view because of our close association. Opinion welcome. QRS 06:00, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
Your removal of item regarding Palestinian health[edit]
Your description of your edit was extremely misleading - indeed false
