A
NotTheWikipediaWeekly
message

Hi folks,

I've confirmed a time for the next conversation on Tuesday night, US time, (Wednesday, 02.30 UTC). Huge apologies that this isn't going to be good for Euro folk, and I know Anthony and Peter will likely be unable to attend therefore. It's possible we need a bit of a wiki effort at the

project page
to better organise and plan conversations - and I'd also like to encourage all interested folks to watchlist that page for updates / changes etc. which will probably be a smoother way of staying in touch than many talk page messages (though it's great that more people are expressing interest in participating...). With that in mind, if you'd like to reply to this message, please do so at my talk page, and I'll respond as soon as I can.

If you are able to attend at the given time, please do head over to

Wikipedia:NotTheWikipediaWeekly#Confirmed_Participants
and sign up - this is a great help in making sure everyone is around. We generally chat for about 10 minutes before 'going live' and the whole process takes about an hour, and I very much look forward to chatting to all!

RE: Some POV stuff

It would be easier to say if I could see the edits, but as a generalization, it probably isn't. --

Meh, I don't think that it would be POV as long as you don't touch something regarding opinion or add yourself to the staff list or something :P --

Re: Need help!

Hey there! Regarding the red links, I would suggest

Wikipedia:Most wanted articles (though remember to check that the article name doesn't exist under some other variation...that is just a list of non-existant pages that a large number of articles link to), Wikipedia:WikiProject Red Link Recovery (which is primarily dedicated to alternative methods of fixing red links, such as adding and removing diacritical marks, changing to a proper name, etc, but which does work toward creating articles to fill gaps, Category:Red list (which are editor-compiled lists of red-links), and Wikipedia:Requested articles
(which is where people actually request new articles be created).

Also, yes, the userspace links on my page no longer function, because I deleted all the previous versions of my page since it used to contain some personally-identifiable information. And Risk does sound fun, though I've recently gotten into EVE Online, and if I'm not here, I'm normally there, lol. Cheers! — Huntster (t • @ • c) 03:22, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RE: RfA question

Meh, I don't care about the mess :P As for the RfA thing, I don't think so - what screws up the bot is having an empty * in one of the vote sections. Of course, such a bug may exist, but I haven't heard about it. --

Okay. Someone had mentioned it somewhere, when i was looking for dramaz. Also, i've seen some "X:0:0" counts on a page when actually there has been a single oppose or a neutral. But that just may have been a lazy bot. Thanks for the help again :D

Führerprinzip

Your discussion of Keyserling's fuhrerprinzip does relies to much on Plato. The "philosopher Kings" reference is out of place and not on point. Remove it or I will remove the fuhrerprinzip from Schopenhauer's article. Also, the Nazi flag on the page is also out of place. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.20.143.93 (talk) 14:55, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It probably is. I wouldnt have a clue. I only reverted valdalism once on that article. I have no idea what you are talking about. I suggest you talk to people who have actually edited that page. Have a good day :)

Re.:Vandalism

That was NOT Vandalism at all!

I was answering another contributor's inquiry made in that article. He/She asked about WHY the term The shits redirected to

diahorrea. 205.240.146.148 (talk) 23:40, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply
]

Someone on that article's talk page also asked about the "American expression the shits", when he/she had seen it on a TV show. See the article's Talk Page, Re.:"The shits". Hope this helps. 205.240.146.148 (talk) 23:58, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, the irony of this situation.

I had made an edit to the article

Yakko's World, correcting a reference to a segment of Episode 73 of Animaniacs. When I had viewed the article originally, it gave the segment's title as "Please Please Please Get a Life Foundation" when in fact, the show's creators had deliberately misspelled the third please as "pleese". The segment's title is correctly listed in the Wikipedia articles Animaniacs and List of Animaniacs episodes, and the segment in question can be found on YouTube
, if independent verification that, yes, the show's creators really did spell it "pleese" is needed (relevant portion is 3 minutes and 24 seconds into the clip).

While I can understand that most single word edits that change a correct spelling to an incorrect spelling are acts of vandalism, I did go out of the way to include a descriptive edit summary. I had hoped that the edit summary would have given the vandalism patrol pause, that it would have perhaps encouraged at least a bit of research into the topic, especially since I ended the summary with a note requesting that the edit not be reverted. I've made my good faith effort to try to make an improvement, and I'll leave it to you to review the topic and to undo your revert or not, as you see fit.

At the very least, I would encourage you to at least watch the Animaniacs segment in question in full, as it does have the signifigance of being one of the earliest pop culture recognitions of the internet's power for collecting and categorizing even the smallest facts. And after all, isn't that the spirit that drives Wikipedia? 72.28.177.52 (talk) 12:10, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Also striked out the warning on your page. :)
