Cleaning up my attics

Hi, can you help compress User:Lenticel/Articles (compress the DYK's to simply state the date and the article name, I'll follow that format for newer DYK's), User:Lenticel/Barnstars (make them mini-barnstars) and User:Lenticel/Userboxes (make it more than one column to make it eat less space) Thanks --Lenticel ^(talk) 01:31, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing my attics!--Lenticel ^(talk) 22:03, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Reverting

Heh, I'm using Huggle and it's really easy to use.  Sunderland06  21:56, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

New humorous subpage

I was thinking of giving you something in return in fixing my pages so I think I'll simply give you an idea that would replace the WP:Screambox. I was thinking of Wikipick-up lines. It will be the community's help for those who gave so much of their time in Wikipedia that the chances of them getting mate is getting less than zero. Perhaps Keeper and you can formulate one on your user subpage. I'm not romantically successful so you're on your own here--Lenticel ^(talk) 10:08, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Well, it's very nice of you to want to return the favour, but actually I have never had a shortage of shit ideas in my head (the latest being a practical wake-up call to what doing harm to Wikipedia often looks like, at least in my opinion), nor do I have a shortage in girlfriends.

I'm not sure how thrilled I am to be automatically associated with Dorftrottel and his shit ideas:-). And, as far as the other issue mentioned, my wife is frigging hot. Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 18:26, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Yours too? But mine also has a great sense of humor. Dorftrottel (talk) 19:03, April 10, 2008

Absolutely. My wife laughs at me all the time....wait...is that what you meant? Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 21:45, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Sure. What else would I mean? It's the same old LSF cycle: she laughs at me, then I smack her in the mouth, then the fucking. She never complains. Dorftrottel (warn) 23:38, April 10, 2008

On Kmweber

Dorftrottel, could you please cease on making sarcastic references and/or replies to Kurt's regular self-nom oppositioning reason at RfA? This issue has been hashed and rehashed for nearly a year now in every relevant talk page and dispute resolution forum as to his standard replies for such RfAs. Kurt will not change his mind, and the community has agreed that his decision is to be respected in good faith and let bureaucrats judge the weight and validity of the opinion in determining consensus. Such poking at his comments is a distraction from the discussion of the user at hand. A personal request to consider, happy editing to you. Keegan^talk 06:31, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

No thanks. As long as RfA is a discussion, I will continue to express my opinion on the validity of other people's reasonings. Besides, my quipping comments may be viewed as a relief by some. Therefore, screw the rest who freely choose neither to assume good faith with me and my usually short comments nor to at least ignore them. Dorftrottel (troll) 06:39, April 10, 2008

Fair enough. Don't get me wrong, I do not assume ill intentions in your posting, and I do appreciate the point (not point, but a valid point). I don't expect Kurt to stop opposing with the same reply, nor do I reasonably expect that people will not continue to question it. I just thought I'd ask if you'd reassess the opposition to the opposition, and it's fine if you don't. Happy editing to you. Keegan^talk 07:00, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Ok, I appreciate it. Btw, I'm aware of my tendency to pass up chances not to comment. Dorftrottel (complain) 08:33, April 10, 2008

As has been confirmed in numerous RfC's, numerous complaints on AN/I, and an arbcom appeal Kurt has the right to to oppose people for whatever reason he choses to do so. His position is well known and the 'crats will apply the appropriate weight to his !votes. The constant harassment of him and others who share his opinion however, is (IMHO) unacceptable. I have seriously considered starting an RfC against people who mock him. His !votes only become disruptive because others make it a point to attack him. Simply ignore his vote and move on.Balloonman (talk) 18:02, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

As an FYI, I crossposted this to the RFA talk page. Because it is a concern surrounding not just you, but others.Balloonman (talk) 18:19, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Harassment? Please don't take this the wrong way, I'm all for using that word for as many and as trivial things as possible so as to decrease its value. But RfAs are discussions. Nobody is forced to participate in any RfA, but if and when someone chooses to do so, they will do it under the condition that others may comment on the validity of their comments and reasonings. Harassment is a far stretch. I'm not trolling his talk page or anything. So go ahead with that RfC drama, I wish you a good time, as that will be the sole potential benefit of it. Dorftrottel (complain) 19:02, April 10, 2008

Ah, cripes, dorf. Can't you just simply refrain from commenting on Kmweber's posts? Futile exertion of energy, IMO. Same as LGRdC. Not worth it. Just agree to disagree, stop posting everytime Kurt posts, and move on? I'm hopeful, but also realistic....Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 21:46, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Eek. Point taken. Please just don't mention those two in one posting again unless unavoidable. I know that Kurt basically has a good head on his shoulders and means and does no harm. May I occasionally post a "no comment" comment or will the drama-addicts abuse that for their purposes as well? Dorftrottel (warn) 23:41, April 10, 2008
