War aims
Hi there! The term the "war aims" of a government is a common expression in English. If you type "war aims" into google you will see 4,150,000 results! The war aims of Hitler, etc etc. One of the first results is a book called "War Aims in the Second World War: The War Aims of the Key Belligerents 1939-1945" sold in the USA.
Nevertheless I'm happy with belligerent, and it is also a common term, so let's leave it at that.
I'm currently looking at notable citations which are needed for this para - shouldn't be difficult as they are all bone fide facts. Andy Andysoh (talk) 23:04, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
Reviving Libertarianism (disambiguation)
Per this discussion - User_talk:MrKIA11#Deletion_of_Libertarianism_disambiguation_without_fair_warning - he said I should mention reviving this and adding Libertarian socialism if it wasn't there already. Please read thread and reply there. Thanks. CarolMooreDC (talk) 16:33, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Minarchism merger
Good call on this one. I suggest you redirect all the discussions to a village pump section, to deal with this issue collectively, otherwise there will be discussions scattered all over. --JokerXtreme (talk) 13:36, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

Sorry
Sorry about that earlier comment, I was a bit brash. Actually, I most appreciate the majority of your edits to the article The Thriving Cult of Greed and Power. I also appreciate the polite and kind demeanor in which you have conducted yourself. Cheers, -- Cirt (talk) 20:20, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
Copylinks
It is probably okay and "in good faith" to discuss sources and leave the links on the talk page, for purposes of proposing referencing, etc. Not as big a deal as, say, leaving those links up active to be displayed, in main-article-space. -- Cirt (talk) 02:36, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks, I'm not trying to get myself in trouble or anything, I'm just gonna slap the issue on a noticeboard and forget about it. I expect they'll just delete the intermediate revisions that contain the links. MutantPlatypus (talk) 02:39, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
- Really, no need to go that far. You've probably done more than enough already by just removing the links. -- Cirt (talk) 02:40, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
- Oops! Too late. Well, the most harm it could do is waste 2 minutes of an admin's time, and 5 minutes of mine. MutantPlatypus (talk) 02:43, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
- No worries, -- Cirt (talk) 03:40, 14 March 2010 (UTC
- lawls, the things that are notable enough for Wikipedia... Double lawls: I just realized you're an admin. MutantPlatypus (talk) 00:04, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
- Um, thanks, I guess. -- Cirt (talk) 00:04, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Confused about an edit to Ludlow Massacre
Hi, i wonder if you could explain the {{rp|42}} in this edit to Ludlow Massacre?
I don't know what it represents, and i think it may cause confusion to readers. thanks, Richard Myers (talk) 03:02, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
