New name

So you changed your handle. Congratulations. But why did you have to pick one so damn lame? Rock out. --Cuchullain 22:31, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

As far as I know, you can't. Ask your welcome committe guy or an administrator.--Cuchullain 22:36, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Man, that sucks more than I thought--Cuchullain 22:37, 11 December 2005 (UTC).

Yeah, they have Wikipedia in a bunch of languages now.--Cuchullain 22:42, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Manx English

Doug, if you could, edit the Manx English article according to Wikipedia:Guide to layout and the Wikipedia:Manual of Style, or put a wikify or cleanup tag on it. Otherwise people are likely to rip it apart.--Cuchullain 05:07, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Florida

Doug, join the Wikipedians in Florida by putting this on your user page (edit to see it, leave out the 1st colon). TheLateDentarthurdent

UNF User box

Hey Doug, I added 2 new userboxes to your page for when you get back from your trip. I created the UNF one, that's how awesome I am. Anyway, I'll talk to ya later, I doubt you'll get this till you get back from Europe.--Cúchullain ^t/c 19:06, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Check it out

Hi Bill, Doug here. Was just browsing and noticed that Plotinus is a page protected from vandalism!!! Presumably by modern Gnostic and Neoplatonists... Anyway, thought I'd say hi in your own milieu. TheLateDentarthurdent 19:57, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I seem to recall there's some dude with very strong opinions about Neoplatonism, Gnosticism and Plotinus. I don't know what his opinions are exactly, because his explanations on the talk page are really, really long. What did you think of my new University of North Florida userbox?--Cúchullain ^t/c 20:40, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Cleanup Template

My bot, Alphachimpbot, has just modified some of your cleanup templates. {{Cleanup|MONTH YEAR}} is not a valid template. Use {{Cleanup-date|MONTH YEAR}} instead. Just figured that I would tell you. --Alphachimp ^talk 17:02, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Thoth

Hey Doug, per your suggestion I moved Dje... whatever back to Thoth. As you said, it's way more familiar. Cheers!--Cúchullain ^t/c 04:18, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Remember

...when you make a significant change to an article, like removing a large chunk of text, include an edit summary so we know why you did what you did. DS 00:20, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

WP:CSB

Hey Doug, to join WikiProject Countering Systemic Bias, put your name here. The userbox is: {{User CSB}}.--Cúchullain ^t/c 18:43, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Shining Path

Doug, could you take a look at something for me? Descendall translated a quote for the Shining Path page, but he wants a second opinion about it. You can see it towards the bottom of the talk page here.--Cúchullain ^t/c 22:30, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Joe Simpson (manager)

I see you added a line to this article that says:

• Mr. Simpson is referenced on The Arcade Fire's album Neon Bible in the song "(Antichrist Television Blues)". [1]

May I ask how you know this? I checked the lyrics of the song and there' no "Joe Simpson" in them.[2] While it's possible to imagine that they are talking about this guy, we can't actually say that's what they mean unless we have some more proof. Do you know if the band has ever commented on it? -Will Beback · † · 06:33, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of What Goes Down Must Come Up

The article What Goes Down Must Come Up has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

A search for sources for this article reveals an insufficient amount of reliable coverage. This television episode fails Wikipedia's notability guidelines.

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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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. Neelix (talk) 19:34, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Konstantin Tsiolkovsky

Can you comment on your reason for removing Fyodorov's picture? The Russian article is much better than the English one, and it does include Fyodorov's picture. You can easily see that the picture is there even if you don't read Russian. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 19:24, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

Memory lane

Ah the salad days of Hancock's Razor. Can you believe User:Nickfl still exists?--Cúchullain ^t/c 21:08, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

Amusingly, his last edit was to Pineal gland in 2008, as seen here. Everything else was for ceramic glazes. TheLateDentarthurdent (talk) 15:46, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

That's really funny. It's too bad the old Wikinfo is no more, I think the Razor was still up on that as of a few years ago at least.--Cúchullain ^t/c 16:25, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Menkaure

Dear TheLateDentarthurdent, I have seen your September edit to Menkaure's article, where you added his name in hieroglyph, transliteration and translation. I would like to thank you for this well-meaning addition, however I had to remove it because this information is already in the article. I realise you might not have seen it (which is due to a problem with the design of the infobox). To see this information plus the other names of Menkaure in hieroglyphs, transliteration and translations, click on the [show] button on the right of "Royal Titulary" in the infobox. Voila!! This will work in all pharaoh articles, so you can now browse their names at will! Have fun! Iry-Hor (talk) 17:54, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

ǀXam language vowels

ǀXam language vowels

TheLateDentarthurdent hello, I just wanted to ask you about your edit on the ǀXam language. I see the consonants section, but can you also put the vowels? Do you still have the source that you got the info from? I know it was "The Khoesan Languages" by Rainer Vossen. If you could just find the source, then add a vowels section on the ǀXam language page, that would be great. Thanks, Fdomanico51997 Fdomanico51997 (talk) 03:32, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

Pronunciation of ankh

Hello. I've been looking over the ankh article recently in hopes of rewriting it, and I saw that you added a reconstruction of the word's pronunciation in this edit. I can't find a reference to the pronunciation of the word on the page of Allen 2013 that you added as a source to that sentence. I can't access the relevant page of Gardiner 1957 that was already in place as a source for that sentence. Do you remember where you found this reconstruction? The consonants are straightforward, but, as always with Egyptian, the vowels are harder to reconstruct. A. Parrot (talk) 01:25, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

User pig

Just a reminder that per WP:REDNOT you should never have red links to categories, so if you add language boxes to your user page, you should create any language categories that are needed ({{Category User iso-n}} is all that's required). Also, can I just check that you realise that pig is the ISO639 language code for the Pisabo language of Peru, and not eg pig Latin? Back in 2007 there was a consensus against User pig because of that confusion and the rarity of Pisabo, I've created the parent category in case you really did mean Pisabo, but not Category:User pig-3 as yet. Le Deluge (talk) 22:55, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Haha. No, I didn't mean Pisabo. I added that language tag as a joke many, many years ago when it did work for Pig Latin. I don't keep up my user page very well. TheLateDentarthurdent (talk) 15:09, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
