I have reverted your spelling changes to Serious Organised Crime Agency, back to the British standard, for a British topic. That is in accord with general Wikipedia policy, please see WP:ENGVAR. Studerby 22:41, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Honestly, I'd have to see it - if it's organized crime commited by gangs - then I suspect that'd be fine, but feel free to add one and we'll work from there. Sorry for the iffy response - if you have any other questions I'm usually a bit more helpful ... talk to you later.danielfolsom 23:29, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
What's the source for all this info you're posting about the dates cartoons were created? Wahkeenah 23:56, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi Agtaz,
I've seen that you've added yourself to the moderator userlist on User:AmiDaniel/VandalProof#Moderators ([1]). However, you aren't a mod. Maybe you wanted to request approval to run VandalProof? If so, the right page is User:AmiDaniel/VP/Approval. Let me know what your edit was supposed to mean ;-) «Snowolf How can I help?» 14:13, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Here, [2]. But user access, not moderator one. «Snowolf How can I help?» 19:07, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, Agtaz. As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that at this time you do not meet the minimum requirement of 250 edits to mainspace articles (see under main here). Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank again for your interest in VandalProof. «Snowolf How can I help?» 21:53, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, Agtaz! You have now been added to the list of authorized users, so if you haven't already, simply download and install VandalProof from our main page. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or any other moderator, or you can post a message on the discussion page. Daniel 13:02, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
Hey, I was just wondering if you wouldn't mind going to two FACs for article I have brought up to FA-quality, IMO, recently. These are Voyage: Inspired by Jules Verne and Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None. I'd really appreciate any criticisms or support that you could provide for these two feature article candidates. Thanks. Paaerduag 02:41, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
These are both adventure games, released by the Adventure Company. What else would you like to know?--Paaerduag 02:54, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for correcting this! I created this article, as you can tell I'm not from LA. So I have no idea of the geography. A link told me Compton was in South LA.

I'd just like to thank you very much for correcting some of the information in the Greg Ford article I created. I truly appreciate it. — Cinemaniac (talk) 05:10, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Well, my exams are over now, so I'll be actively contributing again. What exactly do you suggest we do? I've heard of similar thoughts to create more LT character articles, but some other editors have said that such articles would A) be extremely short, or B) become saturated by speculation and fancruft. — Cinemaniac (talk) 04:07, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
What do you mean? --Flesh-n-Bone 11:37, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
Happy New Year, Agtax! I thought I could ask for your help and advice. I've submitted two articles for peer review, and thought that you might like to critique them:
If you have the time, it'd be great if you could look over those two articles and assess their flaws and weaknesses. Thanks, and, again, a Happy New Year to you! — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 03:54, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

What a Brilliant Idea Barnstar | |
You've always been thinking of ways to improve Wikipedia's coverage of the Looney Tunes, proposing several great ideas concerning the Looney Tunes television history. Even though some of them might not have come to fruition, I believe it's profoundly essential that new ideas be proposed in order for Wikipedia to keep growing. With that in mind, I present to you the What A Brilliant Idea Barnstar, to encourage you to continue thinking of ways to improve the wiki's coverage of Looney Tunes on TV. :) — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 03:28, 26 January 2008 (UTC) |

Just minutes ago, MrJanitor1 merged the Charlie Dog article with the Porky Pig article, without providing any reason whatsoever on the talk page or in his edit summaries. I notified him of this, and informed the user that it would probably be best to ask for consensus before making such a move. I then went ahead and reverted most of the edits pertaining to this redirect, but found myself hitting the wall when trying to restore the Charlie Dog page. I've asked Ted Watson about this, but he's not exactly sure how to do it, either. D'you think you could help us out with this? Thanks! — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 22:35, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi, just noticed your comments on dissolve's page. Regarding trivia - the idea is to pick out the wheat from the chaff. E.g in Colors (film):
These two facts should be incorporated in the main text in a more meaningful context.
This is more to do with Sean Penn and should be put in his article if not already noted.
This isn't such a big deal is it? It's an obscure fact that doesn't carry much meaning as it stands. (However, say this was a running theme in an actor's or director's work then that would be more meaningful and should be re-stated as such)
Think of wikipedia as a way to present the most important and interesting facts. I for one don't mind trivia but the truth is the most interesting parts should be in the article and the lesser ones discarded. This is my just opinion, so if you disagree feel free to keep the info. Sorry for the impromptu essay! Sillyfolkboy (talk) 21:06, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
I see that you have twice reverted the edits which removed your text regarding the "selfishness issue". You reverted by saying "It is true." -- but this isn't sufficient. As you know, content needs to be verifiable, and the text has been tagged as needing references. If you can't give references PROVING that this is true, it isn't true (in the context of Wikipedia) and will likely continue to be deleted. If you don't have references at the moment, I hope you'll consider removing the text (to avoid these edit disputes) until you can supply them. Just some friendly advice. :-) Leena (talk) 03:21, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
I don't quite understand your question. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 22:47, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
Is there a reason why you're changing names of racial groups? Agtax 18:27, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- yes, to make them more ethnically consistent. In fact, I'm not "changing" the names, I'm using the scientifically more accurate monikers.--Kontar (talk) 18:34, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
-I would agree in using Caucasian, but all ethnic groups are derived from a region which environmentally "creates" their ethnic differences. The Caucus mountains is not the only area which has produced people who would be considered to have their characteristics. In general, European peoples are similar in ethnic physical traits as well as cultural and regional association. Caucasian is simply not inclusive enough. Also, "Caucasian" is inconsistent with "Asian," "African," and "Native American." If you use "White people" you would have to use "Yellow people" to describe those of Asian descent to remain consistent, which is of course not physically accurate, regionally relevant, or even culturally descriptive. --Kontar (talk) 18:43, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
-Unfortunately, no- as the data has not been collected yet. Also, as a general problem with the article, the US statistics are not representative of a worldwide view of the subject. A broader collection of data is needed to increase the accuracy of the article. --Kontar (talk) 04:21, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
-As I mentioned above, "white" is not a scientific classification. Nor is it consistent with the other descriptions (ie. Asian). The article is about ethnic relations and classification. "White" is a color, not a geographic ethnicity. Encyclopedic entries are meant to be accurate, not popular. --Kontar (talk) 04:32, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
-I agree. The problem there is that all of the groups you have mentioned are considered anthropologically European in origin. It's a sticky subject, I admit, but South Africans and Australians are not indigenous groups to those regions. They are anthropologically "foriegn ethnicities" to those regions and migrant cultural groups from Europe. --Kontar (talk) 04:40, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
-That is correct as well. Russians are considered part of Eurasia, with the western portion and those of lighter skin and rounder eyes to be of "European origin", where those who are darker with narrower eye folds to be of mixed Asian descent. Eastern Russians are more difficult to anthropologically classify due to their regional relations with Western Asians. Again, this is a fault of the article in not covering this issue. In general, Russians are considered to be "of European descent", even though they are CLEARLY not located in Western Europe. Western Russia is geographically considered part of Eastern Europe. It is the same issue as Australians and South Africans. --Kontar (talk) 04:53, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
The pic is okay but somewhere around here there is a guideline/policy that says that nude images should be limited to articles where a casual user could expect to find them. For example, articles like breast, penis, or buttocks are expected to have nude images. The title "Aurora Snow" doesn't hold that same expectation. I know Wikipedia isn't censored, believe me I know, but nude images of people are frowned upon. Dismas|(talk) 06:49, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
Hello from WikiProject California!
As part of a recent update to our project main page we are conducting a roll call to check which members are still active and interested in working on California related content. If you are still interested in participating, simply move your username from the inactive section of the participant list to the active section. I hope you will find the redesigned project pages helpful, and I wanted to welcome you back to the project. If you want you can take a look at the newly redesigned:

Burden of evidence
The burden of evidence lies with the editor who adds or restores material. All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged should be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation.[1]
I hope the above reference helps to avoid having your welcome editing reverted by me or anybody else. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 04:52, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
The correct date for the citation in the Westwood, Los Angeles, California article is 30 Jan 1998. I have corrected your improper edit of 3 Jan 2008. It is not very hard to gain access to the L.A. Times online archives to verify these kinds of things (you can do it at any LAPL branch).
Please do not make edits unless you understand what you are doing, or you will be classified as a vandal and will be permanently blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Coolcaesar (talk) 07:59, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject).
I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.
If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!
If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.
Thank you and I hope to see you there! howcheng {chat} 23:11, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
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.
