:Well shoot. Someone has now removed it. What I did was take your reverse chart and replaced the main page chart with it. That's the way it was originally, with newest on top. You're right, the sorting won't work with it but since they eliminated the reverse it's the only option. I'll keep an eye on it and go to mediation if necessary. I hope not though. My goodness you put in the time making new things around here. I know I don't always agree but I really applaud the effort. :-) [[User:Fyunck(click)|Fyunck(click)]] ([[User talk:Fyunck(click)#top|talk]]) 22:31, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Template:Archive box collapsible

Are you in TT warehouse?

You should go! Greetings. --Lucio Garcia (talk) 10:19, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yep. Thanks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:29, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are welcome. --Lucio Garcia (talk) 23:55, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Archive

I added "Archive box collapsible" since it automatically list archive links. If you don't want it, please feel free to delete it. -- Suntag 16:28, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I kinda like it. Thanks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 18:07, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Vandalism"

There are a couple of reasons why calling an unregistered user's changes involving the official name of Burma "vandalism" is a little uncalled for. Cheers, Bigbluefish (talk) 18:37, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, you're probably right. There are so many actual "vandalisms" I have to fix that I should have simply used "error" or "corrected". Thanks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 20:08, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thank you for the message you left. Actually I have to confess it wasn't until this morning that I looked at your contribs and realized this wasn't the typical fly-by-night fancruft. Thanks for not taking that the wrong way. May I suggest adding a {{Underconstruction}} tag and/or providing more context as to notability in the edit summaries. That's an immediate big STOP sign vis-a-vis deletion when patrolling new pages. And sorry for causing you to lose sleep :) Cheers! §FreeRangeFrog 17:03, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One learns something new every day. I had no idea that there even was an {{Underconstruction}} tag available for wiki and it does seem that it would have been a good choice to use it. I do also realize that a Sally Jaye article is sort of a borderline in music wiki-dom. I thought I would put up an article, tweak it a bit with references and talk, and then let the chips fall as they may with regards to those who administer WP:MUSIC protocol. It seemed good enough to me for an addition to wiki but maybe a majority would not agree and I understand that. I just want to give it a chance. Thanks again.

Burma (Myanmar)

I've read some of the comments in the debate of its name and I do get the scale of the controversy so I am not going to push it for now, though I would prefer that there would be a guideline that would use the name above anywhere else in Wikipedia in reference to country so that there would be consistency in what to call it. (The name "Myanmar (Burma)" would not be preferable since the name "Myanmar" lost the debate so by default it also lost its precedence.)--23prootie (talk) 15:09, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually that is a good point... consistency in wikipedia. If there could be consensus throughout wikipedia that the term Burma(Myanmar) is going to be used whenever the country is mentioned then I could go for movement of this page to Burma(Myanmar) also. You'd still have the problem of not using the parentheses throughout this article as that would get cumbersome so Burma could be used within. Fyunck(click) (talk) 17:45, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Conventional long name

I'm going to butt out of this discussion but I would leave it as 'Union of Myanmar' if I may make the suggestion. The common name in English is 'Burma', but the conventional long name does not follow the same logic as the common name and it is arguable that 'Union of Myanmar' is more accurate than 'Union of Burma'. Still, the degree to which you want to pursue this is your call. --RegentsPark (My narrowboat) 21:05, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah... it's like I completely disagree with the opening line saying "officially Myanmar" but it's not worth the effort to argue the point. This one is poured out of the same mold. However I would say my choice is to let it change to Union of Myanmar not let it stay at Union of Myanmar. I think I may take your suggestion. Thanks.

Ladies #1 list

Hello Fyunck. No I'm not very competent about women (that is the least I can say) but for me your list is great because I will copy it in a private word document. Károly Mazák who made most of the pre WWI men rankings is truly competent about women too but unfortunately he doesn't write much in Wikipedia (as me for a while : you can note that I only see your message today that is 40 days after you wrote it and I don't know when I make my next really important edit in Wikipedia).

So sorry for not being able to help you

but thank you very much for the ladies article.Carlo Colussi (talk) 13:22, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Fyunck. I don't know how to upload an excel file. (pasted file saved)
Thanks! Fyunck(click) (talk) 08:25, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes about BRI-G (or GBR-G) and BRI-I (or GBR-I). Sometimes you have also BRI-A, A for Australasia. About women's rankings I indeed think there was none of them before the 1920's but I can be wrong. I can't answer you about Pastime. I just can say that Pastime or Lawn Tennis and Croquet classification of British players ranked almost exclusively players who toured in Great Britain (some European continental tournaments could be taken into account). Sorry for not giving you more accurate info. Carlo Colussi (talk) 11:31, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Editor

I was doing this to be better suited to display on all browsers, which the Australian Open already had a color scheme going on before I did it to all the others. The reason I did this blue for US is because that is the color associated with the tournament. I did Red for French and Green for Wimbledon. This will make it distinctive, so you know what page you are on! TennisAuthority 22:26, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but I don't really like it and I put up a discussion on the wiki tennis project page. Unless the color scheme is white or almost an off-white it looks unprofessional. I think other than the yellow on the one championship (which is way too bright) it makes the articles harder to read. The centering also looks weird. If the Australian open was the only one with a color scheme then maybe it is the only one that should be changed back to white? the French championship charts were especially hard on the eyes. Then again the French charts also need a re-write to get rid of the world hardcourt results since they do not belong there at all... but that will have to wait till I get back from a weeks vacation. I just wish you would discuss it in the talk page of the articles before making such a visible change. I only changed some of them back before I realized that you had done it to all the articles so I then put it up for discussion on the project page. Thanks Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:37, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You Won, It's DONE! I am OUT! TennisAuthority 19:56, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
please don't say I won, I wasn't in it for winning I just didn't like the look. If everyone agreed that your version looked better I would have had to say my eyes were in the wrong. I'm usually pretty conservative so less is best is what I gravitate towards. No bells and whistles for me. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:45, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Gump Stump (talk) 16:45, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'm not really fond of my hand-drawn image at all. BUT from what I have seen and read, the image it was replaced with is copyrighted and may one day incur the wrath of the owner. I sure hope not. Fyunck(click) (talk) 09:18, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re Global Warming talk

Hi Fyunck,
You're welcome - although I suspect my response (see here) may not very much please you. Whilst I'd love to agree with everybody(!), I simply have to agree that the post which was deleted was inappropriate (talk-pages do have guidelines which restrict certain types of comment). I hope you're not too disappointed with my response, but would remind you there's always other forms of dispute resolution if you want to take things further.
Kindest Regards, Muzhogg (talk) 23:18, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's ok.... I wouldn't have asked for a neutral 3rd party looksee if I was sure of myself, it would have been straight to a moderator. I would bet that 95% of those posts do not get purged from a talk page but with a very protective group of editors it seemed (and still does seem) a bit harsh to remove it. I like to read everyone's viewpoints on what should go and what should stay in an article but I will not pursue it as it's not even my fight. I just wanted to make sure someone wasn't getting pushed around too much on wiki. Thanks again. Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:32, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid you are too late - the cartel dominating all aspects of Global Warming is so firmly in control that they have already pushed all opposing views (and many good editors) out of Wikipedia. I have seen it happen over the years and can show you the evidence if you wish. The end result is that even the article on "Global Warming Controversy" or "Scientists opposed to Global Warming" are now written to discredit all opposing views. Nothing can be done about it, I've tried and any minute change is immediately deleted, reverted and the editor concerned is hounded and blocked. Regrettably this has brought Wikipedia into disrepute and the Global Warming articles are now simply pro-AGW propaganda. ~ Rameses (talk) 00:30, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Your desire that everybody should get a fair opportunity to contribute is very commendable - well done! And thanks for bringing the issue to our attention. Feel free to drop me a line if I can ever be of assistance around the place, All the best, -- Muzhogg (talk) 23:46, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removing Charts Again!

You know what I am talking about!TennisAuthority 11:35, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well shoot. Someone has now removed it. What I did was take your reverse chart and replaced the main page chart with it. That's the way it was originally, with newest on top. You're right, the sorting won't work with it but since they eliminated the reverse it's the only option. I'll keep an eye on it and go to mediation if necessary. I hope not though. My goodness you put in the time making new things around here. I know I don't always agree but I really applaud the effort. :-) Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:31, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
