Organ of St. Mary the Virgin, Ewell

Many thanks for your message on my talk page. Any more information you have on this organ to boost the article would, I'm sure, be very useful. If I can be any assistance, do not hesitate to ask. Mdcollins1984 00:57, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Churches in Brighton

Hi Vox - hope you are well. Good work on the church pix, especially interior views of St Bartholomew's; I tried to get some 2 weeks ago when I was doing my New England Quarter photography, but it was closed and locked at that time. Just to let you know, the link you entered on the project page didn't work, so I have adjusted it slightly - it should now work correctly. Cheers, Matt.

Thanks.--Vox Humana 8' 20:03, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Renaming of articles

Hi Vox. I've noticed you often rename articles from "St. Xxxxx's Church" to "Church of Xxxxx", sometimes citing a "Naming policy". Could you point me to this naming policy as I can't find it? Thanks, A bit iffy 12:05, 4 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Hi Vox: I'm afraid I agree with A bit iffy that your changes seem a bit odd; I note your response to him that you recall an admin person told you this was the case, but I can't see it anywhere as policy, and in general Wikipedia adopts the local practice which, I would suggest, is "St. Xxxxx's Church", especially outside the U.S. If there is a policy, I suggest the opposite is true - see St. Mary's Church, St. Andrew's Church and St. Peter's Church for examples. What do you think? Carbonix 10:15, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I've just reverted your name changes for two churches in Nottingham, and now noticed this discussion; despite your excellent work on some articles (eg Brighton churches) I do think you've ridden rather roughshod over most people's naming approach! Can I suggest you do no more renaming of church articles unless a consensus as you seem to be advocating is/has been agreed. Thanks - keep up the other good work, however!

Wikipedia Organ Project

Hi there. With your user name and editing record, you look like someone who might be interested in this project. We already have some other organ stops participating (a 16' Cor Anglais and Double Diapason) so we could do with some softer stops for balance! No problem if you're not interested, but thought I'd mention it. I'll now go and read about the Ewell organ... Best wishes, Bencherlite 13:49, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Will do. BTW, as for Vox Humana being a soft stop, you should hear my mother's recording of César Franck's Fantaisie in A - the Vox Humana dominates whenever the pedal reed (an Ophicleide on 15-inch wind) doesn't! --Vox Humana 8' 19:57, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User page vandalism

That was my account, but it wasn't me personally. You'll have to take my word for it on that, like I took your word that when you said you'd apologise, you would. Still waiting...Gary Kirk [Talk] 16:14, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What? I didn't apologise? Ah well, sorry for that. Apologies were intended!--Vox Humana 8' 19:43, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, by the way, Mr Hacker, I'm no vandal - that was someone who, like you did to Gary, hacked my account. As for Capuses/Campae, I realise I was wrong. I was working on poor advice. Mind you, I still haven't surrendered over the train station debate - I have merely ordered a temporary ceasefire. Plus, as soon as I have enough money, I will be joining S.P.U.C..--Vox Humana 8' 19:54, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Surrey wikiproject

Hi, I saw your message on my Talk Page today about the Surrey Wikiproject, the page you linked to however is a new page, as the correct link should have been Wikipedia:WikiProject_Surrey. Also, why put up a "Surrey shield" image when the Surrey article itself already has a coat-of-arm image?

That's because the main image wouldn't load - Firefox kept telling me it contained errors so couldn't be displayed.--Vox Humana 8' 13:00, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What exactly does this project do? ipridian 23:01, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Richard, Thanks for your message on my talk page. I'm fairly busy at the mo, and generally only correcting errors rather than doing massive edits/contributions, but will keep an eye on the project and add any articles as I come across them. Cheers, --Leigh 11:46, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. Thats for the message, I have been thinking about doing some more work on the local area on wikipedia so I'll join your project. I live in Merstham, so I might start there. --Renski 11:45, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hia. I grew up in Sanderstead in South Croydon, Surrey. When I'm next there I'll try to remember to take a few photos. Parmesan 18:52, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Richard. I am sorry I haven't replied earlier, have been very busy lately. My first stay in Surrey was at Godstone Green, Surrey, a very pretty village, and I was at a agricultural holiday camp there, all this was over fifty years ago. Yes, people did that in those days, stayed in a camp to earn pocket money while they were with like-minded young people, in its way quite a lively group and enjoyable. Have been in the Croydon and Wimbledon area ever since, not exactly Surrey these days, as you know. Yes, I love Surrey, until a couple of years ago used to go out with the East Surrey Ramblers, mostly in the Surrey area. Had to give it up for health reasons though. If there is anything I can help you with, do let me know. Sorry about the late reply. Dieter Simon 21:26, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Vox Humana 8'

You said: "You had some doubts as to unblocking me - well, here's further evidence for why you were wrong. I have now started Wikipedia:WikiProject Surrey and its associated portal, Portal:Surrey. I am determined to keep making positive contributions to Wikipedia and will continue to do so for as long as I can."

That's great news! --Yamla 16:06, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Churches of Brighton

Hi Vox,
I have constructed a new table of significant churches in Brighton, which (once it is a bit more complete) I intend to migrate into the Churches of Brighton article. The main purpose at this stage is to give us, and anybody else who wants to work on Brighton church articles, an idea of what needs to be done. The table is currently on one of my userpage subpages: see here (ignore the other table about APTIS tickets!! :)) Let me know what you think, and especially if there are any important churches I've missed out. (There are several more RC I need to add, and the order is a bit random at the moment.) Hassocks5489 15:26, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Check your user page...

Hey Vox, I think somebody has vandalised your user page ... you might want to check the picture and re-upload the one that used to be there.

By the way, check here for current progress on St Nicholas Church in Btn. Cheers, Hassocks5489 12:29, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tire

I don't have the energy or interest to revert it back, but your move of Tire was not consistent with WP:MOS#National_varieties_of_English. Some might get pretty cranky about such changes. (John User:Jwy talk) 04:38, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You were correct in changing the spelling on the Motorcycle page, but changing the spelling on the Tire page and moving it was not. You would have known this if you had read the talk pages before editing. NHammen 15:52, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I moved it back to tire. Don't do that, there have been lengthy discussions about it, please don't ignore them. Especially when childish anti-American invective is your motivation. Adam Bishop 19:33, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Do not change "tire" to "tyre" on the titles of articles. Moving them is against Wiki policy
Please read all the guidelines contained in Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English that include the following:
Stay with established spelling.
Follow the dialect of the first contributor.
These articles have been in the American dialect for a long time, and there is no clear reason to change them. You should not change the spelling used in an article from one variant to another, and there is no compelling reason to do so. Other editors are justified in reverting such changes.CZmarlin 23:08, 6 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
In the case of the changes you made to the Toyo Tire & Rubber Company article, you did not even look up the official name of the company on their web pages: their name is spelled with "TIRE" CZmarlin 04:12, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'd made it perfectly clear: I made a blanket find-and-replace on the article, then corrected links as necessary. However, that does not mean that this is right - everyone who has any sense knows full well that "tire" is a mis-spelling - also, don't you think that, given they were invented in Britain, they should be named with the British spelling?--Vox Humana 8' 22:16, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The Wikipedia Manual clearly states: Follow the dialect of the first contributor. Moreover, you should know that writing that "everyone who has any sense knows full well that "tire" is a mis-spelling" is clearly a very biased and an unfortunate point of view. You need to learn to respect various forms, languages, and dialects. Because a Scottish veterinarian is recognized as the inventor of the inflatable bicycle tyre/tire, should all these articles on this topic (as well as company names) be using Scots language and dialect? CZmarlin 00:08, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No, just use straight British English, except where company names demand the American spelling - these will have been registered as trademarks and should be respected as such. However, as the inventor of the tyre was a citizen of the United Kingdom, not the USA, it stands to reason that the main text should use British spellings.--Vox Humana 8' 14:24, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Charles Macpherson

Hello there. I'm not a frequent contributor to Wikipedia but I've added quite a few links to CPDL (or ChoralWiki). I noticed that you'd edited the article on St Paul's Cathedral and I wondered if you know anything more about Dr. Charles Macpherson, organist 1916-1927. I have been searching the web for any info on him but to no avail. I believe that he wrote an evening service (Magnificat and Nunc dimittis) in A or C for 3 treble parts. I'm sorry if you've got no idea what I'm talking about! Perhaps you could ask your mother as you mentioned that she is an organist? Many thanks. --Bobnotts 13:54, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]


England is a country

Thank you for your keen interest in this three month old user talk page issue. Why it matters, I'm not sure, but please refer to this page and to the definition of "country" to see that just because it is not a sovereign state doesn't automatically disqualified it from being called a country. However, I believe that you'll find the entire point moot because if you go back far enough into the debate as it relates to my interaction with young Patrick, you'll see that it stems from him wrongly assuming that I had asserted England's "country-ness", when in fact I had merely listed it among places I had visited. HokieRNB 19:35, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Vox Humana 8', someone here knows what really happened to England. - PatricknoddyTALK (reply here)|HISTORY 11:15, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Brighton Expansion

Sure, I support this. - PatricknoddyTALK (reply here)|HISTORY 21:14, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Richard; I'll compose a fuller reply to your proposal tomorrow, time permitting, but in principle I would say a "qualified yes". I still think that there should be a separate BAH (sub-)project, as the scope of the Brighton and Hove sphere of articles is just too wide to cope with in any other way - just think of all the church articles we still have to do! :) - but I agree that it would make sense to have something dedicated to Sussex as well. I saw your recently-founded Wikiproject Surrey; something along those lines for Sussex would get my support, although I would still be happier to see some separation of the BAH project rather than full integration.

One thing I will say about Sussex articles generally is that the Crawley article needs serious attention. There is potentially so much to write about and refer to - really, its scope almost matches that of Brighton - and yet there is hardly anything there! I would like to dedicate some time to improving it, although I am trying to juggle Brighton stuff, spoken articles, my railway ticket articles and project, uploading images, contributing to WP:DYK and doing other fairly important things such as going to work (!). Maybe a Sussex WikiProject would help give that vague aim some structure...

Actually, this has turned into a full reply! Anyway, I'll watch out for what other people have said as well. (PS. I have taken a lot more photos of Brighton churches - not uploaded yet, though. Many of the Brighton-based (as opposed to Hove-based) churches here have been covered. I have started writing St. Martin's today.) Hassocks5489 22:19, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A resounding "No" to an expansion of the Brighton project in that way, but a resounding "yes" to an entirely separate wikiproject Sussex, which I would happily join. Brighton is no longer part of Sussex technically anyway. Fork me 12:15, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just read your reply on my userpage. I can see your point, but still feel that WP:Sussex and WP:Brighton should be entirely different entities. Sure they could link to each other, that would benefit both, but Brighton is no longer a sub unit of Sussex, so its project shouldn't be either. Fork me 16:15, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I really think that if this discussion is actually going to mean anything it needs to take place openly on the discussion page of WP:Brighton, as opposed to lots of conversations across individuals userpages. Fork me 14:21, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your lovely hometown...

Ha ha - I thought you might notice these two contributions!! I managed to achieve three things in one day with a journey up the Mole Valley Line on 17th March: once a month on a Saturday, I go up to Bromley to visit a fellow railway-ticket-collecting friend, to discuss latest developments, pick up his latest "spares" to look through at home, and so on, so I did that in the afternoon; I needed to buy a ticket from the self-service machine at Belmont, pretty much the only Southern station I needed one from for my collection since the new machines were rolled out in 2004/2005; and, perhaps most importantly, I needed to visit a number of stations to get pix for Wikipedia. It was a case of jumping off one train, rushing around doing the necessary and getting on the next, so I only spent 8 minutes at Leatherhead! I have been doing this sort of thing (mainly for tickets rather than photos) for the last 10 years or so, and I must have visited Leatherhead station about 20 times, but only once have I ventured into the town centre. I have been up Box Hill about 12 times, though (I've just noticed - no photo in that article!!!). Incidentally, you asked about my camera: it's quite an old, non-SLR digital model: a Nikon Coolpix E2500, probably about 4-5 years old now. My Dad passed it to me when he upgraded to this. I never used to do much photography until I went digital; now, I carry the camera with me at all times, even to and from work. Hassocks5489 12:16, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

E-mail

Hey Vox, just letting you know I e-mailed you. If you don't want to talk about the things I mentioned, that's fine, obviously, it is none of my business if you don't want it to be. If you aren't going to reply, please message or e-mail me, just so I don't spam you, thinking you haven't got the message. Thanks. I look forward to your reply. J Milburn 00:24, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, your recent edits to Richard Dawkins have been reverted as they could be seen to be defamatory or potentially libellous. Take a look at our welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Joe D (t) 16:32, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And "scumbag" isn't defamatory vandalism? The term "anti-religious" has been discussed before. If you think the phrasing is accurate and notable enough to go in the introduction perhaps you should discuss it on the talk page first, and provide references showing who uses the term. Joe D (t) 16:41, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You want to reference that "extremist" comment if you want it to stay. And even if you do find anything, you can only go as far as to say "Source X has LABELLED Richard Dawkins an extremist", not "Richard Dawkins IS an extremist". See here. - Zeibura S. Kathau (Info | Talk) 16:42, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your comments on Persian Poet Gal's talk page.

Read the top of her userpage. I will quote for you:

I doubt she wants to be bothered by matters as trivial as userpage vandalism, however. Gary Kirk [Talk] 15:39, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

César Franck

The use of consensus doesn't apply when a clearcut violation of a Wikipedia policy occurs. Even should editors agree to overlook the "Do Not Use" guidelines spelled out in WP:EL, that doesn't make it permissible. Your use of a sock User:EccentricRichard in lieu of User:Vox Humana 8' to do a third revert must be avoided to remain in good standing. JGHowes talk - 19:56, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WikiProject Sussex

I note that right now you are the one and only member of the project listed above. As you know, the average project is supposed to be a collaborative effort, meaning more than one person is involved. Right now, the project page is a potential candidate for deletion based on its having only one member. I have added it to the Project Directory's European page anyway, but really think you might want to read the WikiProject Guide for a little help in maybe getting word of the project out. Setting up a banner is probably one of the best and quickest ways to do so. If you want any help in setting it up, please feel free to let me know on my talk page (my watchlist is huge, so I might not see your response on it) by and I'll do what I can to help. Thank you.

Sockpuppetry

I may be wrong, but it appears to me you think sockpuppetry is a good thing. I doubt it. Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Vox Humana 8' --Tagishsimon (talk)

You have used socks to evade 3RR to support a link to your own website, and in furtherance of your opinion as to what a user may or may not put on their user page. Neither of those things has anything to do with vandalism, and in any event use use of socks fatally undermines your argument, even were vandalism an issue. You are using socks to circumvent policy (the link to your website) and, I presume, to avoid scrutiny from other editors. Those are clearly against [Wikipedia:Sock puppetry|policy]. Per that policy, I see no legitimate uses of multiple accounts in your actions. I think you should reconsider your approach. --Tagishsimon (talk)
It clearly is a matter of opinion, since my opinion (and come to that Andy's) is not the same as yours or other editors. In this instance, the problem is with your inability to see that others might hold a different opinion to you, and that your opinion is not objective truth. And even if there were no other opinion than that the paragraph violated policy a) that does not amount to vandalism, so much as it amounts to a violation of policy and b) there is no excuse whatsoever for using sockpuppets to fight vandalism or policy breaches. I'm sure you were taught that two wrongs do not a right make. Stop analysing Andy's perceived errors and put some more thought into the possibility that you might be wrong. --Tagishsimon (talk)

WP Sussex

Hi Richard. Thanks for founding the WikiProject, which I have joined. I can do bits and pieces on it. Would be best to drop me a note if there is anything you see as a priority, otherwise I might forget to contribute. Itsmejudith 08:11, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Same for me; I have also taken the liberty of correcting Itsmejudith's username on the page (I think she inserted 5 tildes instead of 4, producing a timestamp instead of her username!). As you probably know by now, my specialities are church articles, transport stuff (especially rail) and photos, but I can turn my hand to most things, especially with the resources of Brighton library and history centre at my disposal (ha ha!). One big priority will be to improve the Crawley article beyond its current dismal state: this is a town of significant local importance and some national relevance, so a much better article is needed. I have plans, but they will take a long time to implement, what with everything else!! Hassocks5489 11:39, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have added myself too - and set up the template to be added to article talk pages. I've also introduced a few links to the project from likely looking places, eg Sussex and East Sussex portals, which I hope will bring more editors to the project. DuncanHill 11:50, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Church of St. Mary & St. Nicholas, Leatherhead

Please read WP:NOT. Wikipedia is not repository of images. While inclusion of (free) images is highly encouraged, Wikipedia articles should not become mere galleries. Wikipedia is an enciclopedia, and as such images only accompany/illustrate text. Therefore, it's a common and encouraged practice that images that cannot be fit into an article are moved over to Commons. This way Wikipedia is still an encyclopedia and not an image depository, and no information is lost: it's merely just a click away. I hope you will understand this and will end the revert war on commons and will not revert my removal of huge gallery on Church of St. Mary & St. Nicholas, Leatherhead. Renata 15:49, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Easy now

I think it's great that you're tagging nonnotable articles for deletion, but you're going to get somebody wanting to cram a Tuba Magna somewhere with edit summaries like this one. Just a friendly note! -- But|seriously|folks  03:17, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not someplace small, that's for sure! When I was in college, I tinkered a little with a certain large organ in Philadelphia. Not THE large organ in Philadelphia; #2. Cheers! -- But|seriously|folks  03:23, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It's this one. We used to hang out in the air chests. The larger one could easily seat 25 people for dinner, which I have heard was done once as a fundraiser, but that might be one of those urban legends. I wish I could have played it properly, but I'm not that sort of keyboard player. Still, I got quite a rush running through what little I know of Bach's Toccata and Fuge in D Minor on the thing. It's now MIDI capable as well! The Father Willis Organ is a good deal older and looks quite impressive. I'm glad these old instruments are still around. They certainly don't make them like they used to! -- But|seriously|folks  03:37, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Iwhack

I didn't remove your tag since I'm not sure it's notable, but I am curious what part you consider a "hoax"? I can play the game on my computer, and since it is JavaScript, not Flash, I see no reason it couldn't be played on an Iphone. It even appears that it may be specifically sized to fit the Iphone (I don't have one, so I can't be sure). So where's the hoax? Seattlenow 17:56, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why are you trying to delete my page?

Why have you attempted to delete my listing? Just because you don't find it relevant to you does not mean it is not relevant to others. I personally do not care about churches in England (which seems to be your forte). Nevertheless, I am not deleting your listings. Please do me the same consideration.--Lockamy 07:51, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Um, I do know a little bit about organs. But, how do I join a wikiproject. I'd love to help with that and a few others too. If you could be so kind, reply on my talk page. Thank you. 4M4 17:30, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That is done. Now is there anything else I should do. Or do I wait for something to happen? (If I have to wait for something, what is it). See, I've never joined a WikiProject. I've seen some though. And, I am not a newbie on Wikipedia either. 4M4 19:12, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I never really noticed that section of a WikiProject. 4M4 19:48, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

From the Editors

Welcome to the August edition of the U2 WikiProject Newsletter. As you may have noticed, we are now doing themed newsletters. This one (if you haven't already guessed) is How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb. Every month the newsletter will have a different theme. There will also be a special edition when the new album is released. Also thanks to Neranei for some of the U2 news.

New Members

We have two new members since the start of the month! They are Vero444 and MC Snowy. We now have 38 members!

The Album

More info from the album page here.

Corrections

Last month's newsletter incorrectly stated that there were 34 members. This should've been 36. Also, under the "U2 News" section, line 3, instead of saying most recent single it should've said most recent song (this has since been corrected). The editors sincerely apologize for any misunderstandings this may have caused. The correct version of the July newsletter can be found here.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

All members of the U2 Wikiproject please note that voting for the next collaboration of the fortnight starts on THE 12TH OF AUGUST. Please visit the collaboration department for more details.

Lesbian background and Marriage of Ms. Cornwell

I believe you deleted my well-sourced edit on Ms. Cornwell's Lesbian relationship and subsequent marriage. All the statements are true and sourced in court records and the Boston Globe. I am unsure of why you consider this vandelism? 68.100.92.224 02:10, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Angmering, etc

Hello — thanks for your note on my talk page. I'm not actually from Angmering myself, although I did pick it as my username because I went to school there (I'm from just down the road in Clapham). Sadly I am exiled to Norwich these days (I'll go back to Sussex someday though!), but if there's anything I can do to help out with the project I'll try and chip in.

Did You Know?

On front cover of All That You Can't Leave Behind is a very subtle Biblical reference. In the background J 33-3 can be seen. This is a reference to verse 33 of chapter 3 of the book of Jeremiah: "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and hidden things which you have not known."
