Keep up the good work! Kingturtle 20:05, 25 Mar 2004 (UTC)
What are you doing on Battle of Midway? The changes you are making prevent whatever it is you are doing from becoming a link - there can't be quotation marks inside a link, I think. At any rate, do you know that there's actually an article on that carrier? john 07:58, 18 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Regarding your change to Kilroy was here, you may wish to consult Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Punctuation, which recommends the British style.

Punctuation[edit]
Please stop fiddling needlessly with punctuation. In one place you have mistakenly added a comma to the name of a story, in another you have converted ordinary apostrophe characters into "smart quotes" which, whilst being "correct" for typesetting books, are not guaranteed to work properly for all Web Browsers (sometimes they will simply appear as square boxes). I note someone has recommended you read the Manual of Style: go for it. HTH HAND --Phil | Talk 15:56, May 10, 2004 (UTC)
Good edits[edit]
Very good edits on the flags, etc. – you have a keen eye for typos! However, please stop changing quotes-comma and quotes-period for comma-quotes and period-quotes. Check out the rationale for that in the punctuation section on Wikipedia:Manual of Style, and yes, this could very well be different from what you were taught to do at school. Cheers, –Hajor 16:39, 4 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Good grief![edit]
Listen to these people and stop adding quotation marks! The quotes you added to Villip were unnecessary and redundant.

Apel, de la ro.wiki! În Wikipedia română ducem lipsă de contribuţii şi am avea o nevoie mare de utilizatori noi. Aşteptăm ca şi tu să contribui dacă eşti dispus să-ţi redirijezi o parte din muncă spre Wikipedia în limba română. Îţi mulţumim! --Danutz
please stop rearranging the links and disambiguations - the Kurds are a ethnic subgroup too and the Goranis in Kosovo have their own dialect so to disambiguate into Gorani ethnicity an dgorani dialect is not useful. EAnyway the Gorani dialect leads straight to a second disambiguation page... Thanks Refdoc 09:34, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Article Licensing[edit]
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
