Hi. I noticed you were interested in this, oh about 6 months ago, and I've just done some research - the problems on the [[Longest common subsequence]] page are still there - namely I think it needs to be merged with substring. I'm a bit unsure though so I was looking for a second opinion. If you're still interested please rejoin the discussion [[Talk:Longest-common subsequence problem#Sequence or string?|here]]. Thanks! —[[User:EatMyShortz|EatMyShortz]] 02:42, 15 February 2006 (UTC) |

:Unfortunately I'm a little busy right now, which is the reason I didn't dig through the mess in the first place. I'll research the subject and verify everyone's work when (I've deluded myself to think) I've got the spare time to do so. [[User:Gerbrant|Shinobu]] 03:21, 15 February 2006 (UTC) |

Revision as of 17:09, 21 April 2006
Hi everyone! Welcome to my talk page. Feel free to leave any comments, suggestions or discussions.
Zork
I noticed that you created a few nice Zork-related articles. I tried doing the same thing last year, using The Encyclopedia Frobozzica as my source (I actually copied the text instead of writing my own version) and those got deleted. If you want to create more, I'd suggest paraphrasing EF or writing your own versions, and sticking to the most important topics for now (such as Great Underground Empire or Quendor). -- BRIAN0918 11:27, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks Brian. Yes, I am aware of the copyvio thing - I've seen it happen before :/. Luckily, I have been using my own words, just using Encyclopedia Frobozzica as a guide on the facts. I have been meaning to create a Double Fannuci article, because that was hilarious. Unfortunately I think that would require a good deal of verbatim from EF. Also, the links to EF from the pages I created (Skull of Yoruk, Coconut of Quendor, Cubes of Foundation) are now broken [1]. That site was the best EF I've seen, with pictures and appendices (which are missing from the sourceforge version [2]) so I'm reluctant to redirect those links. —EatMyShortz 03:12, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- That site's not down, it moved to [3]. -- BRIAN0918 03:34, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Ahh awesome :D. Thanks for that, I will update those pages links. —EatMyShortz 07:18, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Myst and URU
You've contributed greatly to the Myst and URU pages and I'd like to thank you for doing such a great job. Thank you! ToriaURU 18:29, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Byford Dolphin
Thanks for your quick help at Byford Dolphin, I didn't really know what I was doing :) -- FP <talk><edits> 11:19, May 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Lol, thanks. I had just gone over to your user talk page to register a similar thanks... noting that we were both editing at the same time. I think we ended up with a pretty good product! —EatMyShortz 08:23, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
- Yay, the article made it on to Did you know? on the main page! -- FP <talk><edits> 10:52, May 13, 2005 (UTC)
- Awesome! Thanks for your help FP. Great article :D —EatMyShortz 13:57, 13 May 2005 (UTC)
Hi -- and also welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed Ayinyud's alternative proposal on the discussion page -- and well, I ran with it. Be Bold! So please drop over and look at the messes I've made. Below is my initial note on the discussion page.
- "I'll join in, but I think we all have to take some initiative to get this off the ground. The time constraints may be the main difficulty. After all, everyone here does have a real life, don't they? What if we took the info above, claimed a chapter, wrote from one of the listed characters or additional character's POV (I'll be Ethelynn, the new upstairs maid - Chapter 7, User:WBardwin/Chapter.), and then put it together and edit jointly for content and flow? Each character would tell about events before, the murder, and events after from their POV, then we would have different snapshots to work from. We could then jointly write the revelation of the murderer and the conclusion. Having the first chapter to work from would be important, however. How goes it. Gkhan?"
You said you would like Chapter 2. Do you have a character in mind? Please take a look! WBardwin 22:46, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
- all good points. Sequential writing would have been very good, but.... Gkhan has gotten discouraged from lack of feedback(see his/my talk pages) and our choices are to go forward in some fashion or abandon the project. I was brand new to the page, but, from looking at the dates of the comments here, (and with the passing of the original chapter dates) I decided to "be bold" and take initiative. My experience with Wiki tells me that unless people see something happening, they go find something else to do. And that seems to have happened here.
- Gkahn has provided a starting reference and Wikipedia (and novel writing) is about rewriting, rewriting, and rewriting anyway. Things will be disjointed, at first, but we need material to work from. Sequence and plot line can be debated on the discussion page, an outline created, and chapter sequence and/or parts of everyone's material can be shuffled if we choose to do so. That's one advantage of doing this in user space. We decide on a title, create a page for our novel (using the original space as the master page), and then transfer all (or parts) of our material (and relevant discussion to the talk page as well).
- I admit I'm at a stopping point because of the lack of info on the time of the murder (1st night or 2nd night?), and so I've rambled a bit about the daily life of my character. Some of that would go when decisions are made. I read, and reread Gkahn's chapter as I wrote, and I think reading all the chapters regularly would be a good practice. So, perhaps you could look at taking a character and creating a character profile, if nothing else? Who are these people, after all? Or you could take chapter 2, continue Christopher's point of view, and flesh out the plot outline. That would be very good. Gkahn's material, my chapter, and the beginnings of our third chapter (short, when I looked last) are on the project page for review. But Gkahn's reaction is right on - without feedback, this thing will go nowhere. Comments and other ideas are always welcome, as nothing is ever set is stone at Wiki! Please think about it.

Terminology and Quantum sort
You know, referring to a good-faith attempt to remove a hoax from the encyclopedia as "vandalism" is not the way to make a good impression. --Carnildo 30 June 2005 17:44 (UTC)
Hi. Your page title change and subsequent changes were completely incorrect. The ONLY title for this game is simply "9" and such "9 (computer game)" was the correct page title for the game. Though the game is frequently called "The Last Resort," this is not in any way, shape or form part of the legitimate title of the game, and wikipolicy is to have the page title reflect the actual subject name when possible. Please revert your changes as soon as possible. Thanks. Pacian 04:58, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
- I have copied your complaint to the article's talk page and replied there. Talk:9: The Last Resort —EatMyShortz 10:03, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
Tower of Hanoi Binary
I am glad you cleaned up the binary algorithm I dumped in there anonymously quite some time ago. I never got around to coming back to look at it, had nearly forgotten it, and you made it much more readable. Mezle 23:34, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
- Ahh, well thankyou. I guess that's what wiki's about isn't it? We all build on each other's knowledge. Because I wouldn't have been able to write it by myself, I just rewrote your explanation... so thanks! —EatMyShortz 02:29, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Emperor: Battle for Dune
Hi, I just noticed the work you did on the Dune (computer game) article. Good stuff! If you like, you should join the discussion at Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer and video games. We need good contributors like you! Cheers, Jacoplane 10:26, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
- Hey there. (I didn't do much to Dune (computer game) but actually, I just wrote the new full article Emperor: Battle for Dune - perhaps this is what you refer to). Well, thanks for your comment. I've added my name to the list and I'll help out where I can, since I try to anyway. For Wiki! —EatMyShortz 11:13, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for editing the Psychonauts article.--Karimi 17:41, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
Template:HealthWarning
The {{HealthWarning}} is not used anymore. The link from Wikipedia:General disclaimer to Wikipedia:Medical disclaimer is sufficient. JFW | T@lk 08:30, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
- Hmm... Okay. I didn't think it was too prominent, what with it being in tiny writing at the bottom underneath the article text but, guess I can't argue. —EatMyShortz 10:30, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
