Welcome to my talk page. Feel free to ask me for something you need an administrator to do, or something that doesn't require the flag; whichever. Where I reply to posts here depends on how I'm feeling. Sorry, but I'm inconsistent. I will reply though, and if you ask me to reply somewhere specific I'll do that.

Re: Burrito

Well, the material was tagged as unsourced and I removed it. As you are well aware, unsourced material may be removed at any time. I'm not aware of any good sources for the material. Viriditas (talk) 07:47, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

May be != must be. This isn't a BLP; there is no pressing need to remove unreferenced material. If you feel that it's terribly important to remove it, you may, and I won't revert. But removing it an hour and a half after an {{unreferenced}} was added doesn't make anything better. ÷seresin 07:55, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

You don't think it improves the article to remove unreferenced material? Hmmm...let's pretend you don't live in New Mexico. Would you think differently about this? :) The real reason I removed it is because I've reviewed almost all of the literature about burritos, and unless there is new information out there, I don't think we'll be able to find sources. Hopefully, you will find some. Viriditas (talk) 07:58, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

I think it only improves an article if the content is wrong. If I didn't live in New Mexico, I wouldn't think differently in general philosophy, but I probably wouldn't have reverted your removal :-) I'm having a bit of a hard time believing that you've reviewed everything ever written about burritos in reliable sources, to be honest. If there's truly no sources out there, it will remain unreferenced some months from now, and we can address it then. ÷seresin 08:22, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

You are having a hard time believing me? Do you think burritos are covered by a plethora of reliable sources? Do you think the libraries of the world have stacks upon stacks of books devoted to burritos? I know of approximately one book devoted to burritos (Thomsen, David; Derek Wilson (1998). Burritos!: Hot on the Trail of the Little Burro. Gibbs Smith Publishers. ISBN 0879058358) How many do you know about? I think it is bad form to restore content that does not have any sources and is clearly original research. You know the guidelines and policies better than most, so I'm concerned about your judgment. I will leave the material in the article for one week, after which I will remove it if sources are not provided. Viriditas (talk) 08:29, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Move vandal

Thanks for helping to clean that up. Page move vandalism often gets confusing when it needs reverting. Acalamari 01:40, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

You're welcome :-) ÷seresin 01:40, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

dun DUNN dun dun DUNNN da dun dun dunnnn...

Hey, it's been a while. I made some changes on an article you might remember, Biological issues in Jurassic Park, and more importantly the paleologists finally got interested. It's now nigh-unrecognizable.

As such, would you be willing to withdraw your "delete" from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Biological issues in Jurassic Park, which was temporarily suspended so that the article could be improved? If yes, saying so here should be enough, no reason to prod an AfD this old more than is necessary. If not, then for the sake of all that is good and holy don't jump into another deletion attempt, there's still some things I could do to improve it.

Lol. Only on Wikipedia could 'temporary suspension' mean nearly two years. I don't think you need to worry about the relevance of that AfD. I doubt any process would accord its decision or the opinions therein any weight now. ÷seresin 23:00, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
