He is a gay french politician. That is 'constructive' and true. Would you be happier if I added more supporting links? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.108.38.27 (talk) 15:43, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- I would be happier if that information was in a personal life section with sources. please sign talk pages with four tides (~). TheMagikCow (talk) 15:45, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
Hello,
please read my summary thoroughly, I DID provide an explanation, since the paragraph was the same, I feel it would be strenuous to keep repeating year.
Attentively, happy holidays --84.90.219.128 (talk) 17:19, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
- I have read your summary. I still feel that that date was necessary as you must give the date of all awards.

C679 22:46, 26 December 2014 (UTC)Why GAN?
Why did you nominate cattle for GA? It is far from ready and unless you are ready to personally do a bunch of work, it's a quickfail as it sits. I won't oppose the GAN if you are ready to do the work, but it's a LOT of work. Aside from the existing cn tags, there is a lot of stuff not sourced, the article is really disorganized and is missing some important material about cattle.

Project tagging
Hey, appreciate the project tagging you are doing on livestock articles, but IMHO the lists of animal breeds, particularly the "by nation" ones, are going to be "low" importance for WikiPRoject Agriculture. (They may, in some cases, be higher for individual animal projects, but not for WP:FARM.) Montanabw(talk) 20:00, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for the advice. I will change the by nation ones but keep the total lists as mid/high? TheMagikCow (talk) 20:14, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
- I think it kind of depends. For WP:Agriculture/Livestock, I'd say no; individual animal articles might be mid to high (cattle, chicken, goat, etc.) but not breed lists. But for the individual animal projects, (cattle, sheep, goats, etc.) I'd say yes, mid-to-high. For example, List of horse breeds (which is one I've worked on for years) is "high" for WikiProject Equine but not even listed for WP:FARM. Donkeys are mid. Generally there is a "list" class parameter that beats the stub/start/etc. one. Hope this helps! Montanabw(talk) 21:56, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

Warnings
I did not remove any warnings. I havn't edited in ages. Why do I have all this bad rep on my profile?! I will never be a respected person now. Please remove it. It wasnt me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.2.172.185 (talk) 16:26, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
- Hello. If you did not remove warnings please create an account to avoid this trouble. Also a fee of the admins were vandals. I have added a shared ip tag on you page. TheMagikCow (talk) 16:34, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
- I don't know where you got that from, but it's the kind of rumour that is totally false and one that we should not propogate. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 16:57, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
- I'm also curious to know why you created this page. If you are confused about anything, don't hesitate to drop me a line on my talk page - I'm actually very helpful :) Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 17:40, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
- I got those facts from one of the numerous vandalism pages. I can't find the exact one from a quick search but it was one that I have read many times. TheMagikCow (talk) 18:03, 7 January 2015 (UTC)
- Not a fact - a rumour. Some years ago at Wikimania in Haifa, Israel, our famous owners, the Wikimedia Foundation, got some statistics terribly wrong - as they often do - and published some mention of such a claim in a flyer it distributed at the conference. The wrong information was quickly withdrawn. I rewrote the CVU pages a couple of years ago because the project had been taken over by some over enthusiastic very young people. Go figure - and I would be very grateful if you could point me to the page so that I can go and remove any misleading information. The last thing we want Wikipedia to be is a schoolyard full of immature tittle-tattle. Anyway, thanks for keeping an eye on that IP - they're at it again and if they continue I may have to block them. Keep up the good anti vandalism work and if you need any help with anything don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 20:11, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

Hello, you have on several occasions restored information on an IP user page that he or she has him/herself removed. Please be aware that the IP's right to blank is permissible in accordance with WP:BLANKING. It does not mean the warning is rescinded, it is simply taken that the editor has acknowledged the notification which in turn can be retrieved via history. Note that editors can create archives for themselves when which it is absolutely necessary to empty the contents of the talk page, and they can continue to use their talk page after they are banned. Other editors however feeling they can violate this need to remember that they are bound by WP:3RR. Thank you. --Boy Seeks Girl Tonight (talk) 19:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
