I don't list my email because I don't like receiving spam, which is always a danger in forums like this. Give me a link to the info if you have one.Ramsquire 20:44, 3 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Club 33

Hi! My wife and I both contribute to laughingplace.com, considered to be the world's largest Disney fansite and bulletin board. The site has arranged occasional yearly meets through members who in turn are members of the club. As a result, we've gone to two breakfast meets, one of which featured Margaret Kerry as the guest speaker and which in turn inspired me to write the article on her. She was truly one of the nicest, kindest and most patient people I've ever met; it isn't often that one gets to meet a real Disney legend. I've seen the trophy room with its animatronic condors and its microphones in the lighting fixtures and I've even gotten to play the harpsichord. Unfortunately, it was in need of repair...but I can honestly say that I played the Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion themes on it. Quite an experience.  :) - Lucky 6.9 16:04, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Heck, we'll see you here! In fact, I'm writing to you from a hotel room just around the corner of the place and we're taking a paid tour tomorrow. First time ever and I've been coming to Disneyland for decades. It's called "A Walk in Walt's Footsteps" and will include some backstage peeks in the Enchanted Tiki Room and a look at the Club 33 lobby. Any info I glean from the tour will go in the corresponding Disneyland-related articles. Oh, and thanks for the compliment. I really appreciate it. Stay in touch and if I ever make it out to Hawaii, I'll let you know. Best, Lucky 6.9 06:47, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I enabled it... but I'll be replying on-wiki. I'm guessing its for the templates I added...? I don't know much about hawaii, just was born there (but family left for good when I was like a month, military). - Denny 19:55, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Patricia Saiki

Whoops. Thanks for catching this. I guess I got a little ahead of myself. --Ali'i 21:48, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No Problem... that sort of thing happens to me all the time. Good work on the article.--Dr who1975 23:28, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, look at the trivia I just added about Daniel Inouye.--Dr who1975 23:51, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Ads

I think this ad thing is spectacular. Just thought I'd say so. --Ali'i 15:49, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Feel free to use them on your own pages if you wish (follow the instructions at User:Qxz/Ads), or suggest your own, and I'll see what I can do – Qxz 17:19, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Robert William Wilcox

Hey There, You've got me thinking about Hawaii's congreesional history now and I wanted to see if you knew something. Was Robert William Wilcox the first polynesian to represent a state or Territory in the U.S. Congress... if he was... maybe you could work that in when you add Delegates to the list of Haweaii's representatives. Just curious. Let me know.--Dr who1975 20:22, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My user page

Thanks for the reverts. --TheParanoidOne 20:34, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ads

Sorry I had to remove your Community Portal post. Unfortunately I've been getting complaints because other users (not just yourself) have started suggesting they be used outside of userspace. One user even suggested they be placed above articles – a clearly inappropriate suggestion which has reflected badly on me despite me having no intention of doing that (indeed, not even knowing about the suggestion until just now). Please use them in userspace ONLY. Thanks – Qxz 12:13, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sinbad

Gracias and mahalo for adding the references to the Sinbad article. Maybe one of these days I'll get to be an administrator... :-) Thanks again. --Ali'i 18:41, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No prob! -- Zanimum 18:46, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Emo (slang)

Hey, thanks for actually bothering with the references in the emo article. It is important that the source not violate any copyright laws, and I had to revert your edit again because the Rolling Stone video was no longer available, but I'm sure you can find a better source. If you can't, I will attempt to help you . Thanks for your help with the article though. --Steevven1 (Talk) (Contribs) (Gallery) 14:49, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I will also ask that you stop being hostile. Nobody says it did not happen, but this is an encyclopedia. Reliable sources are required: policy clearly states that copyright-violating sources are not appropriate, nor is any content that is user-uploaded (i.e. self-published). Please keep this in mind.

Reduced to sprot, happy editing. — xaosflux Talk 03:16, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

user page cat link

Excellent, thank you! I couldn't figure out how to do that. Would you mind checking that recursive looping category on the BLPC page? I can't figure out how to lose it. - Denny 21:12, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AIV

To be horribly honest with you Ali'i, I removed you mainly because there hadn't been a final warning. I know many people disregard the guidelines with AIV and report users without Final Warnings, but I myself won't deviate from policey unless there are exceptional circumstances. Regards, SGGH 20:15, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Though don't take the above comment in the wrong contexts, because I can't really remember the circumstances! SGGH 20:16, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I check whether a final warning has been given, check the time that it was given and add 1 hour to get it into the time zone that contributions are listed on for me, then I check the user's recent contributions, and if there are contributions after the time of the final warning, I check to see if they were vandalism, and if they were then I implement the block, fairly simple really! See you around! SGGH 07:37, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No

I was being bold, and now that I look at the talk page, I see nothing that remotely contradicts my actions. They are incorrect to call "massacre" NPOV. --Golbez 18:04, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please discuss a questionable username with the user *first*

... before taking it to WP:RFCN, whatever your reason is for taking it there. Thanks! -- Ben TALK/HIST 04:39, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have to agree with Ben here. It is best to always invite the person with the name that concerns you into the conversation prior to taking it to RFCN. --Kukini hablame aqui 19:44, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The main reason is because it is considered appropriate behavior as clarified here:Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names. Best, --Kukini hablame aqui 21:47, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. I think that RFCN may actually be misnamed, but it really is relatively new and evolving. I actually do not like the way it is currently. Mahalo for all your good work on wikipedia! --Kukini hablame aqui 02:05, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ali'i, Cho was a famous playwright!

"Category:South Korean dramatists and playwrights" is an accurate description for Cho, Ali'i!

Why? Simple: He wrote Richard McBeef and Mr. Brownstone, which became well known after Cho's death.

You can read them here: http://newsbloggers.aol.com/2007/04/17/cho-seung-huis-plays/

WhisperToMe 15:45, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

But his plays are indeed notable. Have you noticed that they seemed relevant to people trying to figure out Cho's mental condition? The plays themselves alerted the teachers to the fact that something might be up with Cho.

It would be one thing if he was a killer who merely wrote plays on the side. But, the fact that he wrote plays that apparently revealed his mental condition and alerted teachers shows that he is notable for writing the plays, and therefore is a playwright.

Cow tipping

Thanks for letting me know. —Chowbok ☠ 17:40, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. Mahalo. --Ali'i 18:26, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
