Picture of the day

The sedge warbler (Acrocephalus schoenobaenus) is a passerine bird in the Acrocephalidae family, the reed warblers. It is a medium-sized warbler with a brown, streaked back and wings and a distinct pale supercilium. Sedge warblers are migratory, crossing the Sahara to get from their European and Asian breeding grounds to spend winter in Africa. The male's song is composed of chattering phrases and can include mimicry of other species. The species is mostly insectivorous. This sedge warbler was photographed in Otmoor RSPB reserve in Oxfordshire, England.Photograph credit: Charles J. Sharp

Thanks

Thank you, helpful admin! --Dweller 11:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A fuller list of articles the vandal is interested in can be seen through the contribs of one of the longer lasting socks: Special:Contributions/Rufus_May_Day Susannah Hoffs? I had a HUGE crush on her 20 odd years ago, lol. --Dweller 11:59, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ooh, yeah. "Walk Like an Egyptian" was a favourite video, if not entirely convinced by the pop-rocky sound. Thanks for the pointer, I'm not sure about one of the articles they created on a "famous" rancher, might need further investigation.... Cheers! :) Bubba hotep 12:38, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New one. Special:Contributions/Meiji_Canis --Dweller 14:56, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I missed blocking that one by a matter of minutes. My activities are a bit erratic today, sorry. :) I see they have turned their attention to the Grey Wolf now. A very strange obsession they have going there. Bubba hotep 14:59, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're a star. --Dweller 15:07, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shucks. Blushes Just doin' my job... my, there are a lot of other wolves out there, though. Bubba hotep 15:23, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And I see you've caught another ~~fish~~wolf in your net. --Dweller 15:38, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, one that wasn't blocked earlier, I think. Or was it a new one? Bubba hotep 15:39, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New, I think. How long does it take before someone gets tired of not achieving anything. --Dweller 15:40, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We'll soon find out... :) Bubba hotep 15:42, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's that guy... Grand Noble as usual!

You wrote: after your notability continues to grow, someone else will inevitably come along and write an article about you. Well therein lies the query. I know that just because somebody else writes a Wiki article about my music group, that does not mean the page will STAY up. So really, what can I do career-wise... that when the WikiMods read my new page, in a few months or whatever, that somebody ELSE wrote about me.. What needs to be on that page so they'll see it as "notable" and "keep-worthy?" If I've (1) done tons of concerts along-side large underground acts and (2) put out multiple albums... what if I (3) get reviewed/interviewed in a Hip Hop magazine or website? Will that alone make my page important? I know I probably sound like a broken record homie, and I'm sorry. But here's my reasoning: I want to know what's the smallest action I could do that would solidify my WikiPage... SO THAT I will now go out and fulfill it. You see what I mean? I feel like I can't really fix my Wikipedia situation because I don't have a goal to work towards. You have really helped a lot man. Hope you can provide some more answers for me.

Sorry, Chris. I will have a look at this question tomorrow. Bubba hotep 22:01, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

25 or 6 to 4

This being a very cryptic title for a song, the speculation regarding its meaning has always been associated with it. That is why the speculation is ADMITTED in the text of the meaning. The speculation has always been part of the nature and personality of the song. This is why it is included in the Wik page. Those who have followed Chicago over the years understand this, and that is why we are managing this page. Please trust us to do our job. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 142.150.49.51 (talk) 21:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

I'd rather you managed the page with proper references. If there is a reliable source which states this speculation, then by all means add it, but until then it can stay out. The point of Wikipedia is that you don't have to have "followed something for years" to trust what is written on the page. And phrases like "that is why we are managing this page" makes it sound like nobody else can edit it. I'm sorry, that goes against what Wikipedia is about. Bubba hotep 22:00, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The page has already been edited and is longstanding. You and your anonymous friend don't seem to understand this. Allow others to become involved besides yourselves, and do not eliminate the contributions of those that precede you.
