Hillsong

On your user page, when you say Hillsong is your favourite band, shouldn't that link to Hillsong United instead of Hillsong? Tallrichard2 19:15, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it should! Thanks- CattleGirl ^{talk | sign!} 22:18, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks :)

Hi... Thanks for closing that RfA (beat me to it), I suspect the user's age (at this stage unknown) might be a factor in some of the strange stuff going on. Orderinchaos 08:50, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and congrats on your adminship too :) I've only been one a month or two longer (11 March) Orderinchaos 08:51, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

You're welcome... I saw the RFA and scrambled for the templates, really! Thanks, and congratulations to you as well! I could have sworn you were already an admin... CattleGirl ^{talk | sign!} 08:53, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Carried Away

I want the opinion of a more experienced editor on this one, and I've dug through the WP: pages, but have turned up nothing: When an article says that God did something, such as answered a prayer, caused a church to grow, name your kid something, etc. is this encyclopedic? the article I'm looking at is Carried Away. Now, I'm working on citing this article as well, and I know my sources will say that the band believed God gave them such a name, but does this mean it belongs in wikipedi? This is not the first instance I've come accross of this.RichieRich 03:16, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello again, Tallrichard! How are you?

I think in this case, the best thing to do is add the source that says the girls believe that God led them to name their band Carried Away. After all, if they have said this, then it can be well sourced- where id we said "God did lead them to name their band" then it can't really- whereas they and I might believe it, as humans we have no definite proof! So yes, in answering your question I think the best thing to do would be to add a source saying something like "they believe that God led them to name their band", as this is probably the only statement we can support with proof.

Haha, I like your userpage, too- same here... the whole hours a day on Wikipedia thing I never predicted! :) Cheers- CattleGirl ^{talk | sign!} 09:24, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Oh, thanks for the smile! :) Sorry I replied a little late, but internet access has (very unfortunately) been limited... thanks again, God bless- CattleGirl ^{talk | sign!} 22:15, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!

Hi CattleGirl,
Thanks for that, I'm really glad you like them! Where abouts do you come from that you recognize my photos? I see you've got my hereford pic on your userpage... Anyway thanks for that and wishing me well in Year 12 - exams in two weeks and I'm a little stressed to be honest! --Fir0002 11:41, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

You're welcome- they really are good! I'm Melbourne based, but hang around the Metung/Lakes Entrance area whenever I can! The Hereford picture is good too (I just spent a week hanging around with Hereford and Charolais bulls, so I thought it was fitting when an IP user added it to my talk page!)

You're doing well, to be editing wiki and studying! :) Hope your exams go well- CattleGirl ^{talk | sign!} 22:18, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Romney Sheep article

Hi Cattle Girl, how is your winter going? (Summer for us). The Romnmey sheep article seems to have weathered a month without taking much punishment from new editors than you and me. Thanks again for all your help on it. I may take a stab at some more wool-related articles at some point. Keep me posted on how your Romneys are doing. Best, Sawyer12477 15:41, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
