Editing My Post[edit]This is getting out of hand. Why are you editing my post on your poll? You actually said that you designed the internet and I have repeatedly told you not to edit my posts. Please stop now. AngryParsley 21:56, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC) PKK[edit]Why do you insist on adding the "timeline" when it obviously doesn't work properly yet? Stereotek 12:21, 2 May 2005 (UTC)
Categories on user pages[edit]Would you mind deactivating the categories on your user pages? In particular, User:Coolcat/P142 has a number of "live" categories that result in your page appearing in lists of articles. Categories can easily be deactivated by dropping a bracket or by adding a colon in front of the word "category". Thanks, -Willmcw 09:53, May 3, 2005 (UTC)
Hello Coolcat. I have just been to the Armenian Genocide Talk Page. It is quite a long page and I have not read all of it, but I find it unusual that your comments are littered throughout. You must be very passionate about your beliefs. How did you form these beliefs? What evidence did you use? If you are very passionate that an entire nation are manking up the idea that their ancestors were murdered, raped, and tortured, then you must either have some evidence to the contrary or a personal/patriotic motive. I would be very interested to hear what you have to say. --User:Drchessman 08:53, 4 May 2005 (unsigned/uncategorised)
You seem to be having a little trouble with this page. Templates may not be the best route by which to build a table. Some users may be irate. I don't have a strong opinion, but I have technical skills and I can preserve the content before the use of templates falls under attack. Would you like me to help? — Xiong熊talk* 01:32, 2005 May 5 (UTC) Picture of the day[edit]Thank you for your help on my attempt to create a "Picture of the day." I know...I didn't know what I was doing. Dbraceyrules 03:20, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
Categories at RfA[edit]I removed the subheds because (1) they are counter to the long-established style of the page; and (2) they explode the size of the TOC and make the individuals hard to find among the visual spam. -- Cecropia | explains it all ® 20:56, 7 May 2005 (UTC) Spelling[edit]Hi! I see you created a model on commons: "Millitary Insignia". But shouldn't it be rather spelled "Military Insignia" (only one "l" at "Military")? Med 23:00, 7 May 2005 (UTC) {{GenericCountryStub}}[edit]Hi Coolcat - just found out about these. They would be great - if not for one tiny little detail. They automatically assume that all countries have geo-stub categories. They don't - only about 1/3 of countries do, for the simple reason that for many small countries, it is easier to group countries together into one category. Because of this, if people start using your new template, a lot of stubs are going to end up uncategorised (and therefore out of reach of casual editors). Unless all countries get separate geo-stub categories (which would mean that some countries would have a category with only one or two stubs), it's probably going to cause more trouble than it's worth. Sorry, because in principle it's a good idea - it's just that reality has fallen a bit short this time! Grutness|hello? 06:07, 8 May 2005 (UTC)
Original Research[edit]Coolcat, a lot of your work is appreciated in Star trek but it borders on Original Research. Adding ranks that have never appeared in the show, anda re simply based on the theories of fans, is not justifible. Your recent article on the Comparative Ranks and Insignia of Star Trek bears serious looking as to source material. Also, I had to remove your admiral insignia from Ranks and insignia of Starfleet sicne I think you'll agree the insignia you put on the page never actually appeared in Star Trek. Please take a look at what you're doing and remember the rules of "No original research". I appreciate most of your work and would ahte to see some of your articles get deleted. -Husnock 03:25, 9 May 2005 (UTC)
en:wikipedia --> commons:wikipedia Is there a fast way to transfer images like so? I got most of my NATO ranks at en, want to move them to commons. I knowA I can simply reupload but thats very time consuming... :( For such a transfer do you know anybody who could help? Thanks Cat chi? 17:00, 8 May 2005 (UTC)
I just started typing give me a break. Cat chi? 22:07, 9 May 2005 (UTC)
Support for FAC[edit]Come and show your support at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Ranks and Insignia of Starfleet. Thanks! -Husnock 07:18, 11 May 2005 (UTC) Rank insignia[edit]I like what you are doing with the NATO rank pages. However, I do feel what fits nicely on one page might not suit another, and that your replacements on British Army officer rank insignia and British Army enlisted rank insignia (which I reverted) and perhaps also the U.S. Army officer rank insignia (& Enlisted) pages, were not as aesthetically pleasing (ok that's POV) but more to the point, they were not best fitted in the page layout. They were also confusing when they said there was no officer designate or student officer equivalent. There may be no distinctive insignia in each case, but, aside from OF(D) in the U.S forces. Where they obviously exist should it not read no insignia instead?. The pages in question are or should evolve into more description including prose, than the comparative pages (excellent though these are) and can present the same stored pictures in a different way to suit the article. Incidentally, I am trying to get an image of a coductor's insignia (the highest WO1 in the Brit Army). It's bascially the same but in a wreath not unlike the WO2 Quartermaser. kind regards Dainamo 23:14, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
Although I don't see what was incomprehensible about the original layout, you have won me over on the point about, when necessary, only having to change just one source of data on a template to effect the changes across a number of pages. I have thereore reinserted the NATO template, but I have also re jigged the page as a whole to avoid large gaps and imbalance. Dainamo 11:43, 14 May 2005 (UTC) Starfleet Insignia[edit]I know you did very good images at that page, and I commend you for them. However, I wish to tell you on what I am doing and why. Instead of using many little images to create the pips, I am making just one graphic for use with the rank. That will reduce the need of having many images to be used. I am doing this, since this was one of the complaints at the FAC for this article. I wanted to address the concern, and also might get that person and others on board for support of the article. I hope you are not upset at what I am doing, but I hope you understand what I am doing.

Hi Coolcat. I would like to work together to push for Star Trek to be a featured article. However, I feel that the article as it stands is a mess and requires a complete rewrite. The information presented is fine, but it seems to be lacking certain information and links. Please help by contributing your opinions to Talk:Star Trek. Thanks. -- AllyUnion (talk) 22:57, 17 May 2005 (UTC) Image Changes[edit]Please stop reverting Zscouts new images on Ranks and insignia of Starfleet. Your method of pics "side by side" does not appear well on all browsers and causes spacing problems. Many people have complained about it. A single pic for each rank will solve the problem. Please g with te system and not against it. Thanks. -Husnock 02:08, 18 May 2005 (UTC) Death threat?[edit]. . .

I noticed you moved USS Voyager (Star Trek) to USS Voyager (NCC-74656). I personally feel that the former (Star Trek) is the better title, which is why I moved the article there from Starship Voyager last year. I propose moving it back to "(Star Trek)"; if you have any comments, please drop by the discussion page. Thanks! — Knowledge Seeker দ 07:20, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
Your ST Images[edit]Thank you very much for the recent images and additions to the Star Trek article. They look really good. Thanks as well for beating me to the punch in splitting up the LTJG pictures. That was on the do list plate. I see you continue, however, to change the spacing of the rank pics and revert to your previous version of multiple pics, side by side, instead of a single pic for each rank. This has been beat to death on the discussion page and a very large number of people wanted a single picture for the ranks rather than multiple pics side by side which is your method. According to statements, it caused wraparound problems and was an issue with the browser that is used in Great Britain. ZScout fixed the problem, people then said the pictures looked better, so there really is no reason for you to keep going back to the old pictures you had. I ask you please to stop doing this. Your changes will only be reverted by ZScout, myself, and others. Thanks for your understanding. -Husnock 18:50, 25 May 2005 (UTC) Battle for FAC[edit]The battle has begun again to make Starfleet ranks and insignia into a featured article. Your efforts and time are much appreciated, even if head butting has occurred every once and awhile. Your support would be most welcome! Thanks. -Husnock 18:46, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
We are under havy attack at the FAC page. People have resorted to name calling again. They now propose to break up the article, get rid of the tables, and one writer is again challenging the image sources while another states he will advocate to delete the article. How low can people go? In any event, thanks for your support. -Husnock 20:43, 30 May 2005 (UTC) Military badges on Commons[edit]Hi!
