Mediation

Nothing will happen unless someone decides to take on our case as mediator. It's just a matter of being patient, I guess. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 15:34, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Links between Iraq and Al-Qaeda

Could you please vote on the proposed move Links between Iraq and Al-Qaeda → Alleged links between pre-invasion Iraq and Al-Qaeda? The vote is here. I am opposed to the move since "alleged" is POV and prejudges the evidence. Thanks. ObsidianOrder 21:01, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Received your emails

This is just an acknowledgement of your two emails. I've read them and I'll investigate. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 21:09, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Reverts

I want to apologize for not giving adequate edit summaries. I thought I had done so, but I had not, and I should have merely stated "see talk" and discussed my changes. You have been asked to cite sources for some of your content addtions which have been described as "overstated" on the talk pages. I reverted your changes on Pablo Neruda, Jean-Pierre Raffarin, and Jean-Pierre Raffarin for this reason. I'm not sure if citing a blog on Giuliana Sgrena that quotes another source, which appears to be biased, is an acceptable citation. In the future, I'm going to make my reverts explicit by explaining them on the talk page. --Viriditas | Talk 22:50, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for the explanation, thats all I wanted. TDC 19:47, Apr 28, 2005 (UTC)

history in digital projects

’m an historian working at the Center for History and New Media at George Mason University (http://chnm.gmu.edu/) and we are very interested in digital historical works, including people writing history on Wikipedia. We’d like to talk to people about their experiences working on articles in Wikipedia, in connection with a larger project on the history of the free and open source software movement. Would you be willing to talk with us about your involvement, either by phone, a/v chat, IM, or email? This could be as lengthy or brief a conversation as you wish.

Thanks for your consideration.

Paul Robeson

I unprotected Paul Robeson on your request, as I see you are aware of. But I wish you could be more polite and gloat less both on talk-pages and in edit-summaries. If you indeed "won" the dispute, kudos to you, but that should speak for itself, and you shouldn't need to resolve to further disrespectfull behavour onto other wikipedians. I think you will find that a more polite tone will only help your cases and arguments in the future. Here and in other articles. Thanks. Shanes 03:13, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

Point taken, but in all fairness I had to contort like that "amazing" girl in the M&M commmercial to get the info in there. TDC 03:46, May 3, 2005 (UTC)

Collaboration

Please remember that this is a collaborative project. Though other editors may irritate you there is never a sufficient reason to stoop to making personal attacks on other editors, such as this one. [5] (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ann_Coulter&diff=prev&oldid=13371180) Keeping your cool will show everybody what a mature member of the project you are. -Willmcw 11:35, May 7, 2005 (UTC)

Hey, sometimes you have to call a spade a spade. Gamaliel has made every effort possible both in his actions as well as his rhetoric to prove himself a Grade -A asshole. TDC 16:59, May 7, 2005 (UTC)

Well, since the subject is already opened, I'd like to concure in suggesting that you let some steam go, since you seem to be flirting with the 3RR thing on Fidel Castro; the talk page is there to work on consensual versions, and it's free ! Rama 08:50, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

3RR

Hi TDC, you've been reported for a 3RR violation at Fidel Castro and have been blocked from editing for 24 hours. If you feel the block is unfair, feel free to e-mail me using the link on my user page, and I'll get straight back to you. SlimVirgin ^(talk) 08:54, May 18, 2005 (UTC)

Your comments

on Talk:History of the United States (1988-present) would be much appreciated. J. Parker Stone 01:59, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Inappropriate images

Though I certainly don't agree with all that you've done at Noam Chomsky, you've certainly made some valid points and contributed to the neutrality of the article. But I've very upset to see you uploading a duplicate image, adding an obnoxious filename, and posting it to Talk for the sole purpose of goading another user. This a pattern of behavior remarkably similar to Libertas/Ollieplatt/etc., and it's completely inappropriate and not the least bit helpful to building a better encylcopedia. Please don't do it again, or I'll be happy to make an RFC out of this. RadicalSubversiv E 01:06, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, it was funny wasn't it. Look, it was done to drive home a point, and a very serious one at that. Honestly, I had no idea it was a duplicate, as the original picture was gone when I looked for it. And I got lots of RfC, so it dont phase me. TDC 01:57, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)
