I have already admitted that I am embarrassed of that edit which came in the spur of the moment without much thought. Mr. Sanger has an idea and I respect that idea. Again, I am most embarrassed by my comments. Nobleeagle (Talk) 06:52, 24 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Article creation

Hi there. I just saw you created Fascism what is it, and I'm slightly puzzled. We already have Fascism, which seems to be a decent article, so I wasn't sure why you created this one. (Also, the name seems to go against our standard manual of style. --Bfigura ^(talk) 22:15, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, someone's gone and redirected it to Fascism. --Bfigura ^(talk) 22:16, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Fascism: What is it (pamphlet)

The article Fascism: What is it (pamphlet) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Trotsky wrote a lot of pamphlets; I can't find any reliable sources discussing this one or any other indication it's notable.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Prezbo (talk) 01:59, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Parthian vs Parting Shot

Hi,

Noticed you had contributed to the Wiki page on this, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthian_shot and thought I should mention that it pops up in Chapter 25 of John Ringo's 'The Last Centurion':

"The Kurds weren't going to be much help. They were raid fighters. Hit hard and run. In fact, the Parthians (Persians) were the guys who gave us the term "Parthian Shot." That is, hit somebody, run away and keep shooting at them as you run away. (Very difficult to do with a bow over your shoulder on a running horse by the way.) Getting the last word in as you leave the room is a Parthian Shot not a Parting Shot. (Yeah, I know, how many pet peeves . . . )"

Not sure if it's significant, but thought you should know. Thanks Deb —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.30.98.51 (talk) 12:02, 21 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File:Entrance-cee4 cec4-1.jpg & File:Entrance-cee4 cec4-2.jpg

I had to tag both of them for deletion and remove them from the Hinton/Entrance Airport article. Both are screenshots from some flight sim and so are not free. In the case of that airport, like a living person, there is a reasonable expectation that a free image could be obtained. By the way if those were from Microsoft Flight Simulator X I would also question the accuracy. I've seen that on a friends and there are multiple airports that look nothing like the real thing. Enter CBW, waits for audience applause, not a sausage. 17:05, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:BenTremblay-2010-1.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:BenTremblay-2010-1.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless ... Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:36, 6 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh-woops, I missed this. I'm sad; my bad. --BenTremblay (talk) 04:48, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Jasper Airport

I don't see that there ever was an image at Jasper Airport. I doubt that we would have spoken as I didn't start this job until 1978. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 04:19, 22 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OK. You may have talked with some of my co-workers who have been here forever. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 05:31, 22 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry being thick tonight. The terminal will have changed since you were here. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 06:08, 22 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How to /not/ start a new page!

As a rule, you can't link from main space into user space. To start a new page but have it reviewed before publication, try WP:AfC: just put {{subst:submit}} at the top of the page and someone will come by and review it. (You can also look for an appropriate WikiProject and ask there, maybe WP:WikiProject Buddhism or WP:WikiProject Japan.)

Sorry, I was going to post this to your talk page, but I got distracted IRL :)
