Good work on Metropolitan Museum of Art!

You've done some exemplary work on the different departments of the Met, Docether, which is why I suggest that you add some inline citations to make your effort worthwile! Citations are one of the requirements for an article to become a featured article, you see, and I'm sure that with decent-sized sections on the history and architecture of the museum Metropolitan Museum of Art would easily be FA material. I imagine you must be rather put out by that monster edit, though! HAM 19:11, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your positive comments on the cover image I uploaded and thank you for starting the article.Justin Foote 23:51, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks re Francis Henry Taylor

While deprodding the article I must have assumed good faith by the original editor! :-) Thanks for spotting that it was lifted from Columbia. --Mereda 14:00, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Portal:Current events/Middle East

just as a little reminder regarding the revert you did to Portal:Current events/Middle East, don't forget to warn the vandal. also don't rush to warn him now, i have allready done it.--JWJW ^Talk Long Live Esperanza! :) 18:50, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism on Samuel Bellamy page

Hi, when you revert vandalism, like you did at the Samuel Bellamy page, it's also a good idea to warn the vandals, which will hopefully get them to stop and become useful contributors. You can see the warnings and more about them at Wikipedia:Vandalism. Thanks! --AW 21:53, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Oops!

Sorry about messing up the old-style spelling of "Gally" on the Samuel Bellamy page. I'll leave it alone from now on. It's great that you actually look at contemporary records while writing on pirate topics; too few people do that. Pirate Dan 16:04, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Because of your work on the Samuel Bellamy page, you are invited to participate in WikiProject Piracy, a new project page. --Pirate Dan 22:08, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Trailer for bioshock

I'd of left it in really. I spent quite a bit of time doing that (not realising someone had already done it on the talk page :) ). How come Portal ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_%28computer_game%29 ) can have extensive trailer talk and not Bioshock? Both are as good as each other.

yeah I understand. Thanks :) Daveuk07 17:50, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

New York City Demographics

I would like to have a discussion. I would like you to check out two articles. A New York Times op-ed on Census data from 2001. It was written by Orlando Patterson, a Harvard University sociologist. It is called "Race by the Numbers". The second presents data very different from what is on Wikipedia reguarding the ethnic make up of New York City. That article is called "The 'White' Lie" and appeared in the NY Post a week ago.

The Times article is available from any database of the Times. Rock2003

Black figure pottery

Thanks for your kind words, but I fear you're being overly generous. I wont have the time/inclination to do much on WP in the future, you seem to be interested in the subject of Greek pots - you ought to have a crack at it. The whole subject is badly hampered by the lack of bored graduate students in the field, someone needs to step into the breech. Twospoonfuls 19:48, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Euphronios

Hi. Thanks for your thorough editing job on the updated Euphronios article. I can't believe how sloppy I appear to have been... Also, there seems to be problem with keyboards B and V. Keep up the good work! athinaios (talk) 11:50, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Update on Henry Cejudo talk page

I found the disconnect between what you had found and what it said elsewhere.. I agree the Times could have said it better, but it was Cejudo's brother (who is nationally ranked as well), who was 150-0 and won four titles at Maryvale. SirFozzie (talk) 16:17, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

GA reassessment of Idi Amin

I have conducted a reassessment of the above article as part of the GA Sweeps process. I have found some concerns with the artcile which you can see at Talk:Idi Amin/GA1. I have placed the article on hold whilst these are fixed. Thanks. Jezhotwells (talk) 17:14, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
