As Thoreau once said, morons love to quote philosophers.

I don't know where this came from...It popped somewhere out of the depths of my brain. It's quite possible that I thought of it, but I may have read it somewhere... Another option is replacing philosophers with Wikipedians, but then I though "Why have it be Thoreau?"Christoph Jenkins 00:15, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

When in Wikipedia, do as the Wikipedians do.

Taken from "When in Rome, do as the Romans do," but I have a suspicion that this might have already been taken. bibliomaniac15 05:31, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Another TM based motto. For some reason the second link isn't working... --The preceding comment was signed by User:Sp3000 (talk•contribs) 05:26, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

• There is nothing wrong with the second link. It is because it links to the page it is already on, i.e. this one, that does not show up. Anyway, Support. Simply south 13:29, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

It's unfair

• Sorry for leaving it unexplained. I meant that it was unfair (to Wikipedia) to have fair use images on one's user page (kind of a pun). S.D. ¿п? § 12:35, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

• Comment. Maybe it would be clearer as It's un-fair. --sthomson06 (Talk) 19:52, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
