Here is where I will be manually archiving any DYK or ITN notices.


I edit some political articles; please read this before accusing me of bias.

My votes in the last four presidential elections: Clinton, Bush, Bush, Obama. I do not have a bias for (or against) any political party.


Thanks for removing that. FYI, discussion about it is still going on at both Talk:Abraham Lincoln and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation.  Glenfarclas  (talk) 10:59, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've made my views known. I'll let the discussion run its course now. UnitAnode 18:05, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WikiCup

Hey, if we lose, at least there'll be a WikiCup Recyclables! --William S. Saturn (talk) 06:32, 10 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Letterman

I spent hours making that list. Please don't delete it. The chart represents David Letterman's complete awards nomination history. It does not properly belong on his show's page, as you suggested, because the list represents Letterman's own individual achievements, and not that of his shows'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.169.55.70 (talk) 05:36, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Why don't you consider starting a list instead? The massive amount of text it adds to that page just isn't tenable, and such a list might actually be noteworthy. UnitAnode 05:38, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
"might actually be noteworthy." Oh, it might? Really? I had no idea! Thanks for nothing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.169.55.70 (talk) 09:11, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I tried to help you, by offering some suggestions. Starting a stand-alone list article is certainly one idea. UnitAnode 13:40, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

U.S. Grant

User:Cmguy777 has been trying for some time to improve this article to GA status (it just failed GA review), so I suspect the user is making some sizable changes to match the feedback. I realize your change was a good-faith reversion; it seems unlikely that user is actually vandalizing the page, no matter what the edit seems to indicate. It would be a great idea if user was better indicating intention though helpful edit summaries. BusterD (talk) 19:03, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Did I revert him? If I did, it was completely by accident. I was checking several "no edit summary" changes on my watchlist, and I must have pressed rollback by accident. UnitAnode 19:08, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No worries. If I'd seen a red-linked user who blanked an entire section, I'd have reverted without too much closer inspection myself. I've been watching the user's valiant efforts with this difficult material. BusterD (talk) 19:45, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

JamshidAwal

Hi there, may I know why you just went and changed my articl. You basically reverted my articel to what it was 10 secs ago after I made changes. Meanwhile I am chatting with Wikipedia Admin on how to improve this article??? --JamshidAwal (talk) 21:55, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

JamshidAwal, it is not your article. Once you hit that "Save page" button, it becomes the community's article and may be edited at will by anyone within common sense and basic guidelines. As it says below the "Save page" button, If you do not want your writing to be edited, used, and redistributed at will, then do not submit it here.

My appologies MuZemike I didn't mean to sound too harsh..it's just that I am honest to god exhausted trying to iprove this one little tiny article.. every day I check there's another John Doe tha has tagged or left a message.. But reste assured that I vigouroulsy try to improve it..allthough at this point I don't know what else I could possible change.. nonetheless I have engaged in a conversation with the Wikipedia Bio admins and the current version seems to be okay with them.. they are still reviewing it.. I would ask yo then to let them deal with this article.. we all know what happens when there are too many cooks in the kitchen..lol --JamshidAwal (talk) 22:04, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
