However, this gave me an idea for a new essay which could replace this one: Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not Calvinball. PSWG1920 (talk) 04:04, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

FFXIII dispute

Hi, I just wanted to extend an olive branch and apologize if you found me in any way insulting in my talk comments. I hope that if we butt heads again in the future we can resolve our problems in a more civil discussion rather than edit warring. KhalfaniKhaldun 08:51, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Cheers, I agree. Edit warring usually isn't my style; don't know what got into me. Peace! - Chardish (talk) 19:01, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Constituent/Representative chart

It appears your image File:Constituents per Member of Congress.png demonstrates U.S. population / (representatives + senators). Especially since its only use is at United States congressional apportionment, shouldn't it just calculate U.S. population divided by representatives only? Senators aren't apportioned by population, so their inclusion just skews the data. For instance, the 2000 number should be closer to 650,000 than 525,000. -Rrius (talk) 06:06, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

If you can think of a more appropriate page for inclusion of the image I created, I'd be interested in seeing it. The page does mostly discuss the size of the House (and debates thereof); I don't know of any ongoing debates to amend the size of the Senate. I would disagree, though, that the inclusion of senators skews the data; the chart is intended to illustrate a trend, and certainly the number of U.S. citizens per senator has increased as well! - Chardish (talk) 06:16, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

I was never saying it should be transcluded elsewhere. I was saying that since it was about apportionment of representatives, it should show the ratio of people to representatives, which is more staggering than the ratio of people to (representatives+senators). In addition, the size of the Senate has changed during the 210 years covered by the chart at a different rate of increase from either the House or U.S. population. The meaning and importance of the data as presented is therefore hard to understand. -Rrius (talk) 01:32, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

I noticed the chart has been replaced with another, similar chart, in line with your suggestions. Can you think of a better place for the chart I created? Cheers. - Chardish (talk) 03:31, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, I only noticed this now. Perhaps, relabeled, it would make sense at Electoral College (United States)? -Rrius (talk) 02:26, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Next time...

I can see you're a self-declared "deletionist" and all, which implies a certain level of knowledge of the ins and outs. So perhaps you could try to contact the major authors of the articles you AfD? Like this one for instance? Maury Markowitz (talk) 01:14, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Apologies if offense was taken; none was intended. I mark AfD nominations as such in my edit summary, and I assume that page authors keep pages they're interested in on their watchlists, and thus would be notified that way. Cheers! - Chardish (talk) 03:30, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Suggested changes to Monty Hall problem

You are invited to join the discussion at talk:Monty Hall problem#Changes suggested by JeffJor, Martin Hogbin, and Glkanter. Rick Block (talk) 04:09, 3 December 2009 (UTC) (Using {{Please see}})

Consistent with your comments, could you please indicate your preference at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Monty_Hall_problem#Summary_of_opinions . Thank you. Glkanter (talk) 05:27, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

No. Issues on Wikipedia are resolved through consensus-building, not voting. Voting is not a substitute for the consensus process. Cheers. - Chardish (talk) 06:17, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

As I was selecting my wording for the above request, that very issue came to mind. Thanks for your input! Glkanter (talk) 09:25, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Gameofthronesintertitle.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Gameofthronesintertitle.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 04:58, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
