Disneyland past attractions
I started working on List of past Disneyland attractions from memory but it's way too late and I've spent too much time and I'm going to bed. Elf | Talk 06:32, 26 May 2004 (UTC)
- Good list of past attractions. Any reason it couldn't just be put into the article w/out descriptions? Elf | Talk 15:06, 26 May 2004 (UTC)
- Sorry about user page /Temporary; since it looked like a repository for info to go onto the page & had questions, it seemed like the place to answer. I'll do it on the talk page next time if I have more to add.

- Ha! I knew this page was around somewhere; check it out if you haven't already: Yesterland (http://www.yesterland.com/yester.html). Elf | Talk 00:39, 27 May 2004 (UTC)
The Children's Hour
Thanks for the note about The Children's Hour - there was a wiki link to it on the Radio 4 comedy section which needed re-directing to the new page ; have sorted it out now though -- Zaphod Beeblebrox 21:33, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hello, I noticed your page in [www.wikisexsite.com wiki sex site], and thought to greet you. At the moment we are in three working there. Not much, but better than nothing. Oh we also have two stories on the way!
User page on Norwegian wiki
I just came by your user page on the Norwegian wiki. Thought I should just drop a couple of comments.
In your picture text, you have written "Jeg" which translates to "I". It would be more appropriate to write "Meg" (in english: "me") or "Dette er et bilde av meg." (in English: "This is a picture of me").
Another comment is on the word "unnskyld", which quite correctly means "I'm sorry". But used like that, it would be more appropriate to use the word "Beklager". Whereas "unnskyld" is more like "I'm sorry I did that to you", "beklager" is better to use when trying to say "I'm sorry I can't help you out".

"Disneyland Park"
I'm sorry if I was too snippy with my edits to change "Disneyland Park" to Disneyland. You're right that there are a couple of places on the Disney web site itself which refers to the place as "Disneyland Park"; but there are many more places which don't have the "Park" in the name, so I'm inclined to believe the true name of the park is simply "Disneyland" but that even WDC is confused as to the proper name to use. You've inspired me to note this in Disneyland. :) - Brian Kendig 01:42, 9 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Hello, the reason they use the phrase "Disneyland park" is that it is required for purposes of protecting their trademark. To remain valid, trademarks must always be used as an adjective, never as a noun. I have added an explanation to the Disneyland page. Johntex 07:23, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
RinkWorks
Greetings! Stumbled upon your user page looking at Sealand and recognized your name from RinkWorks -- I haven't been there in... probably 4 years, but I used to post/chat as Fobulis, and I just thought I would say hello. And so I have. Enjoyed your writing there, and enjoy it here, too. Mindspillage 21:46, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Perhaps I should... but I already felt like the boards were hard to keep up with when I was in high school and didn't have anything much to do (or, rather, didn't do anything much)! Even here I am merely putting off my senior thesis. :-) Mindspillage
The mediawiki trouble
Hi. I just saw your posting on Villege Pump regarding mediawiki software. I am not very knowledgeable about it, but there are many who are on Wikitech-l (Wikipedia:Mailing_lists and #mediawiki Wikipedia:IRC. If you still haven't gotten any responce, you should try them. If you already solved the problem, please just ignore this message. Tomos 07:09, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Stranger in a Strange Land
See my comments on Talk:Group sex. Group sex does not imply the absence of a relationship. It is a description of an activity which is clearly evident in Stranger in a Strange Land, where the definition of group marriage is very loosely defined in the context of being a "water brother" and part of the nest. In any case, the group sex is in the book and should be included on the page. --Viriditas 09:53, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Article Licensing
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 1000 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 (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=User_talk:Ram-Man&action=edit§ion=new)| talk)

Hypersexuality != Sex addiction
Please note: hypersexuality is a well-defined medical symptom that should not be confused with "sex addiction". "Sex addiction" is a pop-psychology term; please don't redirect it to an article on a medical topic. -- Karada 13:53, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
lots of edits, not an admin
Hi - I made a list of users who've been around long enough to have made lots of edits but aren't admins. If you're at all interested in becoming an admin, can you please add an '*' immediately before your name in this list? I've suggested folks nominating someone might want to puruse this list. Thanks. -- Rick Block (talk) 17:17, Jun 12, 2005 (UTC)
