Your talk page

Please do not blank your talk page when the messages are no longer needed - this is seen by some as an attempt to cover up complaints or vandal warnings against you, and it makes it very hard to find any information from the page. Please archive your talk page when it gets too long, using the move method. Thanks. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 14:41, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:St Mary Virgin.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:St Mary Virgin.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:42, 7 February 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

St Paul's Cathedral, Melbourne

Hello Sean, I am a member of the congregation at St Paul's Cathedral, Melbourne. Thank you for adding the service times to the article. However, I have changed the word Mass to Eucharist, as I think it is more helpful to use the terms that are used in the Cathedral's official publications. While some of us at the Cathedral are Anglo-Catholic and refer to it as the Mass in private, it's not common usage among most of the people there. Claudine C. (talk) 11:49, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

D&D wiki project consensus

A call to all members of the D&D wiki project. We are currently having a major dispute that needs to be settled by all members of the D&D wiki project. The dispute is as follows. 1. Should we put disambiguation tags on D&D articles preemptively or should we wait until there is an article conflict with some other Wikipedia article. Vote on preemptive or wait.

2. What should we label these tags? Example "child's play (module)", or "child's play (adventure)" and at this point we are taking all suggestions.

Ptosis (breasts)

Please come to the Talk page for discussion, rather than reinstating your edits. There are no sources provided, and some of the content goes outside the scope of the article. Thank you. Joie de Vivre ^T 11:51, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi, there. I don't want you to feel unwelcome at an article because of me. That's not a situation I want to perpetuate. I am used to editing articles where people edit pretty aggressively. If you want to expand on the topic of breast ptosis, you should feel free to do so. The main problem I was having is that ptosis was being presented as though it were a deformity that required surgical "correction". Just be mindful of WP:NPOV. I will make a greater effort to communicate on the Talk page with you. OK? Joie de Vivre ^T 03:43, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

• It IS a deformity, or rather a medical problem that "can" require surgical correction. All the women close to me in my life have been big women (BBWs), and if they had large breasts they all suffered from this problem as they got older. It seems that the bigger the boobs the greater the chance for ptosis as women mature into middle-age. Most women with large or very large breasts will suffer from this problem, what is bizzare is the young women that suffer from this condition. It is a medical problem that is more harm to their self-image then to their health, but is still a problem.--Lord Balin 10:08, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

P.S. - About the images: you uploaded two or three different breast photos, and claimed you took them yourself. Do you work in photography? They were photos of different women and appeared to have been taken in different settings with different cameras. Did you really take all of those photos yourself? Joie de Vivre ^T 03:46, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

• One picture I took as a photograph of my wife, the other was of an old gf I used to date several years ago, then I had a drawing.But thats OK, I'm going to stick to my history and my Catholic subjects.--Lord Balin 10:00, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for getting back to me. In case you decide to edit the article again...

My opinion is that breast ptosis is not a deformity; it happens to all female bodies with breasts that protrude, as they age. A cleft palate is a deformity. Scoliosis is a deformity. Breast ptosis is a natural part of aging and is no more a "deformity" than wrinkles or grey hair. The individual may personally be displeased with it and may wish to go about body modification for their own purposes, but their own psychological desire for breasts that do not droop does not make the condition in every instance a "deformity" that "requires correction". The condition does not "require" correction outside of their mind, and the "suffering" is psychological in nature.

The two earlier examples do actually require intervention. Cleft palate can interfere with the ability to eat and speak. Scoliosis can interfere with mobility and cause painful degeneration of the spine. These are actual deformities which require correction. Ptotic breasts do not "require" mastopexy any more than small ones "require" implants.

Again, if you want to do anything to the article, please don't let me stop you. All I ask is that you talk about mastopexy as an option, not something that ptotic breasts require. Joie de Vivre ^T 12:49, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk page guidelines

Please do not edit your previous comments after someone has replied to them, as you did in this edit. That is discouraged at WP:TPG; where it says "Changing or deleting comments after someone replied is likely to cause problems, because it will put the reply in a different context."

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice

Hi,

As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.

We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.

You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

WikiProject: Dungeons & Dragons

Hi! I’ve been working on a lot of ‘’Dungeons & Dragons’’ articles lately and saw that you were a member of WikiProject Dungeons & Dragons), and am inviting you to rejoin Wikipedia’s D&D group. I've been hard at work removing tags placed inappropriately on D&D articles, as well as modifying articles to remove tags that were placed legitimately. In addition, I have been compiling related articles together so that the articles are longer, making it easier to remove tags and to have short articles on lesser topics by just putting it into another appropriate article (links to such compiled articles can be found on my userpage). Check out the project here , and ask any questions that you may have here. Thank you for your time. Drilnoth (talk) 20:27, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

The article is coming along fine, keep going. I'm just trying to help things along by following Wiki policy and guidelines. Happy editing. Truthanado (talk) 03:52, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

BTW, for future reference, if you want to create an article and work on it for awhile without being interrupted by others, you can use a personal sandbox. When you have it to where it's ready for others, then just copy and paste it into a regular Wiki page. Truthanado (talk) 03:58, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

I would be very happy to get some input on a simple problem for the article Jesuit Missions of Chiquitos. Basically the question is: What was the reason for the expulsion of the Jesuits from Spanish America in 1767? Was it: The conflicts in Europe between the Jesuits and the ruling powers (France, Spain, Portugal,...). A power struggle in South America with Portugal and Spain where the Jesuits ran a quasi-independent state in-between the Spanish and Portuguese realms. Another reason or a combination of the above.

Regarding your edits to Salton Sea, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thank you. I noticed you made a couple of edits trying to get the movie title in italics. The answer is to put the markup outside of the wikilink brackets. It has been fixed. Happy editing. S.
