Heroin

What are we supposed to see on the Mitch Hedberg talk page? --The Grza 21:30, Apr 2, 2005 (UTC)

I was going to ask the author for some confirmation of Mitch Hedberg's heroin use, but the Chicago Sun-Times did the trick. Sorry for spreading confusion! --Omphaloscope 21:34, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Tina Howe

Hi! That "Tina Howe" article is greatly lacking content. Can you add any more to it? Single-sentence nanostubs are speedy deletion candidates. Take care. - Lucky 6.9 04:06, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)

WOW

Haha that is freakin' sweet. I've unfortunately slowed my particpation on Wikipedia, but I still love the site. You're in fact probably the first *Internet* person that I know in real life. The snow is still sticking even up here - it looks unblievable. The trip home wasn't good (3 in the backseat+being in the middle = cramps) but the tournament was really cool. How did you do?--<font color="green">Etaonish</font> 15:12, 4 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The New York Times

The New York Times is a self-described liberal newspaper: http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9D01E7D8173DF936A15754C0A9629C8B63. That is an article from its public editor answering the question. I added the political line. 206.15.101.253 20:46, 3 March 2006 (UTC)Ed

Joan

Not sure why you added the Maxwell's Silver Hammer reference; it was already in there, but I guess it adds emphasis
