Making changes to archived discussions

I have reverted the change you made to an archived discussion. Please read the header, where it says "The following discussion is archived. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. --Orange Mike | Talk 14:13, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Varieties of the English language

Please cease to make changes in the article Blue to match your (and my) local variety of English. One of the principles of Wikipedia in English is that if an article on an international topic is begun in a particular variety of English, the article stays in that variety. Blue, like Orange (colour), happens to have been begun by a user of British spellings, and will stay that way. This policy, covered in WP:ENGVAR, is of long standing, and is unlikely to change. A mutual respect for the diversity of English use across this planet's six billion people is an underlying strength of this project; don't disrespect it. --Orange Mike | Talk 14:20, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi, the recent edit you made to No Limits has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

Calvin and Hobbes

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Calvin and Hobbes. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. The comic published 1992-02-16 is about the artistry of snowballs, not lemonade. Anomie 13:48, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

According to the official website, the lemonade comic was published on 1992-02-16. Inks.LWC (talk) 20:56, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
Really? Where? When I look at the official reprints site, I find this comic for 1992-02-16, with the lemonade comic at 1993-04-04. Further, when I look at page 449 of The Complete Calvin and Hobbes Book 2, I see the snowball comic with a date of February 16, 1992; and when I look at page 164 of Book 3, I see the lemonade comic with a date of April 4, 1993. Anomie 23:52, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
I was looking at the official site that was on the wikipedia page for Calvin & Hobbes - it must be an error on their website. Sorry that I passed on the incorrect information. Inks.LWC (talk) 09:00, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
No problem. Anomie 12:56, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

CSD and patent nonsens

Yo, Inks.LWC, thanks for helping out at WP:NEWPAGES. I think you may be using {{db-g1}} too liberally, as in this edit to Mass communication culture; the article is not nonsense, it is perfectly understandable English for the most part, though it is copypasted from another website and is not an appropriate Wikipedia article. If you're not completely sure that an article meets the criteria for speedy deletion, it might be best to use WP:PROD or take it to WP:AFD instead. See WP:G1, here or here for more info. Thanks for your work! Regards, Skomorokh 13:52, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Stretch

Movie very recent, that's why, Charlotte Gainsbourg got the prize for best actress at last Festival de cannes and Patrice Chereau was a former president of the festival. The page is very legitimate. Sincerly. User:District Nein10:08, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
