Fiddle Faddle (talk) 20:49, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
I just wanted to ask you - how do you interpret the words of Jesus that is to turn the other cheek? Do you take a simple approach it is as it says it is, if someone hurts you you turn to them the closest equivalent to the other cheek in said situation? It is a tricky issue to draw the line with this verse, at what point and how are we allowed to retaliate, and at what point are we not to? Plus, I thought I'd tell you something you might be interested in, did you know "Lord Yahweh Jesus Christ" in what's believed to be Jesus' first language, Aramaic, is pronounced: "Maryah Yeshua Meshikha" and that's the title he's given in the Peshitta (pronounced: pe-sheet-ah). - Fusion809(talk) 14:41 UTC March 22 2012.
Okay, so you're adamant that you're doing the right thing, can you explain why I made this reversion since it was a suicide, and it was in Vermont, so "Suicides in Vermont" seems a perfectly legitimate category? Are you sure you're using HotCat correctly? The Rambling Man (talk) 21:50, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
Oh i was just trying to learn how to work on wikipedia and stumbled upon your page as a very active wikipedian.I apologise for the mistake. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ayanosh (talk • contribs) 16:10, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
I think both the book articles that I started are fairly notable and there is no reason that they should be removed.Yes both were short but i think they could have stayed on as stubs.Here are the reasons
1-THE MINE---> Reviews by *ibnlive**DNA*and*Telegraph all of which are very respectable Indian publications.
Then there is Media Coverage on two occasions in *The Hindu* ;on one occasion in *DNA* also it finds coverage in *MSN India* and *Sify*
2-MAY I HEBB YOUR ATTENTION PLISS---> Reviews by *DNA**Deccan Herald**Indian Express**Times Of India*;all of which are very respectable Indian publications.
Then there is the Media Coverage on two occasions in the *Deccan Chronicle**DNA*also it finds coverage in *Indian Express**Asian Age
There are various other mentions and reviews of the two books,some of which I have made on the pages themselves and rest of the others you can find at "http://greatbong.net/the-mine/" and "http://greatbong.net/book/".
ThanksAyanosh (talk) 23:29, 20 March 2012 (UTC)ayanosh
I have made changes in both the pages and added the reception of the books and submitted them for review.How long do you think will it take for them to be accepted?Ayanosh (talk) 13:02, 21 March 2012 (UTC)ayanosh

I have, I think, stated the issue clearly at The Article's talk page. I thought you might appreciate seeing another person's interpretation of the discussion and to confirm (or otherwise) my understanding of the situation you have been looking at. I think it reflects what you have explained to me and hope sets it out in such a way that folk like me who need spoon feeding can understand it. I think defining what we need to discuss in this way prior to discussing it can be helpful.
You will see that I am sympathetic to the view that some categories are at best debatable, though others are 100% appropriate. I am not yet sure what do do with the imperfect categories, though. I am purposely not looking at policies and guidelines. This may be a time for WP:IAR, except that of consensus, obviously.
Now, if this discussion reaches a conclusion for Mr Clementi and his untimely death, it ought to hold good for the other articles, and simply needs to be lodged somewhere that it can be referred to easily, perhaps as a transcluded rationale on each article's talk page. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 00:32, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
Gotcha. Thanks for taking the time to clarify :-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by I Am Peripatetic (talk • contribs) 02:51, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi Koavf. I notice that you have been putting tags on theatre category talk pages. Good for you. I am curious about something, though. Why do you sometimes use a state specific tag, such as WikiProject Michigan on the page Category talk:Theatre companies in Michigan, and sometimes use WikiProject United States on other pages such as Category talk:Theatre companies in Massachusetts. Is there a technical reason for this? In any case, thanks for helping with all those messy theatre categories (I created a lot of them.)
Your answer may be of interest to other people, so I suggest that you reply here. I will watch your page.--Foobarnix (talk) 23:00, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
MA=yes
to mark something as part of WikiProject Massachusetts. For what it's worth, I had nothing to do with these decisions. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:09, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
Courtesy I'm glad that you were notified (by WP:TWINKLE) and I'm glad that you were so thoughtful and gracious in your response. Clearly, the majority agree with your assessment... —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 19:41, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
Hi. Would you like to comment here? An editor proposed to note all the tracks that the credited people on the album are on, such as: (bullet) Name - instrument/role (track #, #, #, etc.). I don't have much precendant, but the guidelines at WP:Albums show differently (Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_guide#Personnel) I am arguing that the editor's addition is undue. Dan56 (talk) 23:22, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
Category:Albums by recording artist and cover artist, which you created, has been nominated for discussion. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at the category's entry on the Categories for discussion page. Thank you. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:10, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
"Self, it's time we notified ourselves."
Wow, how did you find all those categories!? I programmed AWB (searched Category:Oregon with user-defined recuse to some ridiculous level) to find some that weren't tagged recently but I obviously didn't find them all. Thanks for tagging them!

Just wishing you a wonderful First Day of Spring 2012! Mifter (talk) 22:55, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
Hallo, here and in 2 similar cases you wrecked a redirect by eliminating its content and calling it a stub. I've fixed them. Please take more care - even when using AWB to help, you are responsible for all your edits. Thanks. PamD 08:13, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi Koavf, Recently I made an edit to the infobox in Michael Stipe, which you subsequently reverted. You cited "template instructions." I looked over the template and couldn't see anything contesting my original edit. Could you please clarify?Bjones (talk) 14:07, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
We do not typically put links to Wikinews within the main part of medical articles. We do put them in the section at the end sometimes as seen here Suicide#External_links. Thanks Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 06:49, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for improving the article! Kiefer.Wolfowitz 16:49, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi. I noticed this edit of yours, and while I don't disagree with the edit in question, could I please request that you provide edit summaries for your edits? If you need assistance with the sort of things that the community expects to see in the various edit summaries, please have a read of Wikipedia:Edit_summary. Thanks. GFHandel ♬ 05:29, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
What a wonderful idea, if I knew of those edit notices I would of changed to those long ago, thanx (by the way how would I add those to other articles ?) Cheers, Mlpearc (powwow) 04:04, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Account Creator I am but, I didn't realize they can be so versatile, I haven't done many edit notices, I actually do create accounts thanx for the info. Mlpearc (powwow) 04:13, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Too cool, [1] thanx, Mlpearc (powwow) 04:18, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi. Would you like to comment at Talk:The MF Life? It concerns unconstructive edits made to the article The MF Life. Dan56 (talk) 16:45, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi Koavf, I saw you rejected PROD on the article with the edit summary "Remove PROD per reasons I contested speedy deletion", but I can't find that edit (I rejected speedy myself). I'm thinking of bringing it to AfD, but not before I know your rationale in rejecting the PROD. Cheers, Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 16:24, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
Regarding your recent note to me, see Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#User:Kiefer.Wolfowitz. Good Ol’factory (talk) 22:21, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi. When you recently edited Underwater Sunshine (Or What We Did On Our Summer Vacation), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Chris Bell and Fran Healy (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I had questions about two of your edits to Live at Angkor Wat. On this edit you changed the title of a reference (changing a hyphen to an en dash). I know that this is the proper style for content on Wikipedia, but shouldn't we leave the titles of references as the original writer intended them? On this edit what was the purpose of the infobox image change? There was an image before and now there is only a red link to a nonexistent image (I can't find the old one any more either). Thanks for your help! —danhash (talk) 15:15, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

This is only a suggestion, you are of course welcome to discern for yourself.
But I think it might be a good idea for you to minimise your interactions with User:Kiefer.Wolfowitz.
Of course, post notices about XfD noms, and engage in such XfD discussions. But while doing so, please consider your own words and tone, and try to not get sucked in by any negativity or rudeness. WP:COOL may be a helpful page for this.
At this point, several editors are aware of the situation, and honestly, I'd like to spare you any further drama : )
Happy editing : ) - jc37 18:24, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi, can you help me? According to this article on msn (in Danish), was justin bieber themselves have said that he suffers from ADHD. Is the source reliable enough to use the wiki?

Could you remember to also add ((WikiProject Years)). This will eliminate the need to revisit all these talk pages. __meco (talk) 21:11, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
I was just browsing through this category three hours ago and it had around 14,100 articles. I checked three hours later and suddenly it was 15,000! And then I went through your contributions log. Just want to give a warm thank you for the great work. There is currently a tag and assess initiative being held by WikiProject Pakistan, please feel free to join if you're interested. I for a fact know that there are still possibly hundreds of Pakistan-related categories and articles that need fresh tagging, you're help in that regard has been much appreciated.

Hi Koavf,
I saw that you are patrolling new pages and was wondering if you could patrol from the back, it's a lot more efficient.
