Welcome to Faithlessthewonderboy's talk page.

Please post your new topic at the bottom of this page.
Please sign and date your entry by inserting "~~~~" at the end.
Please use a new ==Descriptive heading== for new topics.
Please indent your posts with ":" if replying to an existing topic (or "::" if replying to a reply).
I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to Watch this page until you are responded to, or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.
If you are here because I deleted a page you created, please read this before asking why I deleted it.
Uncivil and/or incomprehensible messages will be deleted.
If you feel the need to vandalize Wikipedia, please do so here. I'd rather you vandalize my user pages than any actual articles. Nonetheless, be aware that any vandalism left will be immediately removed, and may result in a block.

RfA thanks

Hi Faithless, and thanks for supporting my successful request for adminship. It was nice to see all the kind comments I got from my supporters and I hope that I will be more useful to the community now that I have the tools again.--Berig (talk) 15:31, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cockburn Town

Per your recent edits at Cockburn Town, are you confirming that it is pronounced COKE-bern and not COE-bern? I ask because not all our editors have a firm grasp on the IPA, and you didn't say anything at Talk. kwami (talk) 05:20, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like I was a bit sloppy when editing that page, and didn't finish. I meant to change the IPA to COE-bern, and provide a couple of sources. Oddly enough, I had trouble finding any good sources at all. I did find a couple that, while not great sources by any means, ought to be acceptable considering the minor nature of the claim they're backing up. I will make the changes presently - if my IPA is incorrect, please feel free to correct it. Cheers, faithless (^speak) 06:39, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Great! I couldn't find anything. The IPA is fine. kwami (talk) 07:27, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Jim Morrison's birthdate

Ijust wanted to reiterate how problematic this has been from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation IP over the last few months. It's not just on the Morrison article, but that's the one I have watchlisted. Wildhartlivie (talk) 04:06, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I seem to remember them messing about with the Morrison article before. We'll need to keep an eye on it. Constant Vigilance! faithless (^speak) 10:06, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just wanted to note that the same problem has happened ~~five~~ six times in the last days: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5],

[6], and was blocked for the same thing in July and is fairly persistent. I believe this isn't just changing for their use of dating, it's become vandalism. Wildhartlivie (talk) 08:48, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the references

I especially liked the New York Times article. I also added it in on the 3rd Street (Los Angeles) article, which is pretty basic and needs help badly. That area is fun if you're ever in town. Joan's is seriously the best gourmet food place in LA. So I'm hoping the article will be around for a while.ChildofMidnight (talk) 22:39, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Happy to help. I'm originally from California, but haven't spent much time in Los Angeles. I'm from the Bay Area, and have also lived in Palm Springs. :-) faithless (^speak) 23:42, 5 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

-== Grocka ==
-In the Wikipedia play this allegation, according the Hungarian Independence in 1526 ceased. This is a nonsense. You be a stranger the Hungarian History. In 1526 the hungarian nobility was elect Ferdinand Habsburg as King of Hungary. Stay up the hungarian parliament, legislation, etc. In 1849 the Habsburg Monarchy transitionally liquidate the Hungarian Independence, but this aback in 1867. Accordingly Hungary alike belligrent in the Battle of Grocka. [[User:Doncsecz|Doncsecz]] ([[User talk:Doncsecz|talk]]) 17:09, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
