== [[2005 Atlantic hurricane season]], [[User:Stirling Newberry|Stirling Newberry]], [[WP:VIP]] and reverts ==

Stirling's persisting with it, so I offered to go through [[Wikipedia:Requests for mediation|mediation]] to settle this. Since you're still on IRC (I assume), you might want to ask a third party for a neutral take? -- [[User:NSLE|NSLE]] <sub>([[User_talk:NSLE|Communicate!]])</sub> <sup><[[Special:Contributions/NSLE|Contribs]]></sup> 06:25, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

== Re: Signature ==

Hey there: Not sure how to handle my signature. Its gotten a little complex and I saw the User: Merovingian had done something similar to what I have. You mentioned "substing the template," which I am not sure what that means. Also, when the signature is placed in the Raw Sig part of my preferences page, then it leaves this bulky long string on the page, that makes further editing difficult for other users. (Personally, I don't like when other users have these really long complicated signature tags on the AfD pages and elsewhere, as it makes editing difficult). Any suggestions on how to substring it?{{User:Gaff/Sig}} 07:43, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

Hi Titoxd, I've just recnetly started patroling recent changes reverting vadalism and I'm just wondering sense we both warned the same user for vandalism what the " test4, and test5, blocked" mean if anything at all?

==Why did you revert my edit?==
The article you reverted was wrong -- it was even internally inconsistent. I was just trying to correct it! Chern classes don't depend on a Riemannian structure on the base manifold. In fact, they have little to do with a Riemannian structure at all. Furthermore, the equation F=dA was totally wrong. The entire example was a non-sequitur.

You want your encyclopedia to be as good as it can be? Then please stand aside. I have no time to deal with drones. {{unsigned|151.204.6.171|05:08, 1 November 2005 (UTC)}}

:Sorry about that, but the equations have been checked in the past before by [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Mathematics|WikiProject Mathematics]], and if the article is :indeed incorrect, please mention that in their talk page. The modification seemed too different, that's all.

::The articles were basically the same! I was just conveying the information correctly. Please go and re-read them. Thanks. (The equation F=dA is wrong, or at the very
::least misleading. At least, it doesn't agree with the linked reference, which '''I''' wrote -- partly.)

:::The only linked reference is for a book by Jurgen Jost ... are you Jurgen Jost? and in what sense did you write it "partly"? The book lists no co-authors. (Great book, by the way, I like it) [[User:Linas|linas]] 06:38, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

::Anyway, it wasn't the equations I was objecting to per se. It was the fact that Chern classes have nothing to do with a Riemannian structure. (I could say more
::but I would be wasting my time.) Anyway, I'm a math instructor who works in the field, so I actually do know what I'm talking about.

:::Hi anonymous. Thanks for your edits to [[Chern class]]. However, please try to avoid being rude when others attempt to engage you in conversation (the remark about "drones" is uncalled-for).

== Little typo on your user page ==

Second paragraph.

"...TitoXD and is always glad to copyedit the articles he reads to correct grammar mistakes and other conventions."

The 'and' doesn't fit.

And thanks for the speedy deletion!

: Thanks for noticing it! It actually was an intentional typo to check if anyone read my user page. Since someone does, I don't need it anymore. :) [[User:Titoxd|Tito]]<font color="#008000">[[Wikipedia:Esperanza|xd]]</font><sup>([[User_talk:Titoxd|?!?]])</sup> 22:37, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

== My Apologies...==
...concerning my comments towards your reverting of my James Roosevelt, Sr. edits, I received your message at an inconvenient time and I shouldn't have been so crass. Because you have an eye for organization, I was wondering if you would be so kind as to assist me with ideas for reorganizing the [[Hampshire County, West Virginia]] article. It's gotten a bit too large and I feel it could be organized a bit better and more in-line with Wikipedian format. I would like to retain the information and sections, just in a different way. Let me know if you would like to be of any help! --[[User:Caponer|Caponer]] 00:00, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Hello, I want to thank you for your support of my RfA. I hope I see you around Wikipedia soon. Best, [[User:Johntex|Johntex]]\<sup>[[User_talk:Johntex|talk]]</sup> 00:19, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

== Nice to know the system still works ==

Hello, Doctor. For the record, I'm not a bot, and I review every single edit I revert, I only have a tool that makes the process faster, the rollback given to Wikipedia administrators. But don't worry, I wasn't insulted. However, other users might not appreciate similar comments, so I still recommend you listen to Linas's advice. Titoxd(?!?) 21:07, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

:Anyway, I was rude to you as Linas pointed out. But your revert came too quickly, in my opinion. To me it was clearly the work of an automated tool (a "bot"). Using such tools can be a double-edged sword. Thankfully, there was a thoughtful human at the other end in this case.

:On the other hand, I would like to thank you for your thoughtfulness. I believe that my submission was entirely true to the spirit of Wikipedia. I was providing a clear and concise formulation of the Chern class. My alterations to the page would never have made it through were it not for you and Chris Matthews of Wikimath.

== An other one ==

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps "My friend is dead, what can I do?" The operator says "Calm down, I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There's a silence, then a shot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says "OK now what?"

::Thanks for the barnstar, not entirly sure I deserve it lol. Journalist did the same thing to my page for me and I just did what he did. I appreciate it all the same though so here's an other joke.'''''Caution this joke is XXX'''''. (I had to put that in just incase it offends ya :-D)
*A couple are going through some tough times, so they agree that the woman will walk the streets for a night and see if she can make some money. Her husband drops her off on a corner in a rough area of town and drives off. Thee next morning, he picks her up and finds her with her hair all messed up, make-up smudged and obviously needing a lot of rest. She climbs in the car and excitedly says, "Look honey, I made $50.50." Which of the jerks gave you the fifty cents?? All of them" she says.

== A nice metaphor about a [[ziggurat]] ==

Titoxd,

Wikipedia is a kind of vast, towering [[ziggurat]], the hub of a bustling city. It is unfathomably large, and, like a ziggurat, it was built a long time ago by wise and ancient priests who dispensed wisdom to the community at large. (I'm going somewhere with this [[metaphor]], so stick with me.)

I am very new here. Metaphorically, I am a small child running in the street, feet caked with dust, squinting into the sun at the temple's apex. From this perspective, Wikipedia is a very daunting thing.

Your gestures of kindness were both unexpected and heartwarming. You are -- here the metaphor fails me -- a nice priest at the ziggurat who has given me some [[lapis lazuli]] beads and told me to buy something nice at the village market.

Like the ziggurats of ancient times, this metaphor has become a terrible ruin. And like the ziggurats, archaeologists will look back on this metaphor and wonder, "What were they thinking?" So allow me to conclude by saying, thank you for taking the time to be nice. Your grace has made Wikipedia a little less daunting.

Written in thanks,

[[User:Caroline Sanford|Caroline Sanford]] 06:02, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

PS. Happily, this means I have achieved another of my life's goals, "To write metaphors about things that are like ziggurats."
