Revision as of 02:15, 9 January 2018

Welcome to my Talk page. Please note the following-

I may not respond to any un-civil comments left here; in fact, I may summarily delete them. If you don't trust yourself to speak civilly, please feel free to chill out for a bit, and come back here when you feel you can speak to me civilly.
You may wish to consider whether a discussion would be more productive at a specific article's Talk page, where other editors will more easily be able to view the conversation and offer feedback.
Before starting a thread to discuss any removals of unsourced material from articles, please review WP:V and WP:BURDEN. I will expect any discussions to take those policies into consideration. Also, please note that I have already been the subject of an ANI discussion regarding my removal of uncited material; I will expect any discussions of such here to go beyond what was raised during that discussion.
Please be aware that just because something is handled a certain way elsewhere on Wikipedia does not mean it is okay for it to be repeated; it is possible the matter was handled improperly at the location being used as a precedent. For more information, see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS.

Thank you for your consideration and civility!

Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays

From Stave one of Dickens A Christmas Carol

Old Marley was as dead as a door-nail. Mind! I don’t mean to say that I know, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a door-nail. I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade. But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hands shall not disturb it, or the Country’s done for. You will therefore permit me to repeat, emphatically, that Marley was as dead as a door-nail.

So you see even Charles was looking for a reliable source :-) Thank you for your contributions to the 'pedia. ~ MarnetteD|Talk 00:53, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Marnette! Been another delightful (or sometimes "delightful") year working with you! Happy Holidays! DonIago (talk) 06:13, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!!! Being in VT, I'm pretty close to the GWN myself! Hope your weather is being more cooperative than mine! Happy Holidays! DonIago (talk) 06:12, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Re: National varieties of English (as pertinent to "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (film)" and installment/instalment)

Apologies for the edit! In all my North American ignorance, I've never in my life seen the elsewhere-standard spelling of instal(l)ment. The offending edit wasn't an attempt to impose my opinion of a 'superior' regional spelling standard on Wikipedia as a whole, but rather an attempt (born of unfamiliarity) to fix what I'd thought was simply a typographical error gone unspotted. Thank you for bringing the actual case to my attention.
