Good job

edit

I read the changes made on Jesse James Garrett. Good job on making a succinct point and keeping the article NPOV. Thanks for finding the neutral ground. - Sleepnomore 14:54, August 16, 2005 (UTC)

Ajax Edits

edit

The edits you've done so far on Ajax are good, but could we possibly discuss these things before too many sweeping changes are made? I'm not trying to be a control freak, but considering the problems of the past, I thought discussion of the edits, at least a brief one, would help control the edit wars. - Sleepnomore 15:31, August 21, 2005 (UTC)

I'm happy to do this as much as possible, but I'm not sure that it's that extensible a solution to edit wars. For an instance like this, I didn't remove any info but the one line that said that it was impossible to produce gracefully-degraded options for some Ajax functionality (something that seems unlikely), and everything else was just a clean-up of existing information so as to prevent having to cross-reference within the article. (For example, what's the difference between the "con" part of Pros/Cons and the Criticism? Latency had ended up under criticism, whereas usability had ended up as a con. Seemed like an artificial division, so it made sense to combine 'em.) I guess I'm of the opinion that people should be able to edit as normal, but if people are looking to delete entire sections -- which is what started the edit war and led to the page lock -- then that should be discussed. That's more or less what people ask throughout Wikipedia... Jason 16:30, 21 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

Leaving Wikipedia

edit

As someone who I was formerly involved with a dispute, I thought you would like to know that I'm no longer editing on Wikipedia after yet another hotly contested debate over another article. In the mean time, you might want to know that the article was vandalized again yesterday and the work that was so carefully discussed previously was removed. Feel free to leave it how it is, or continue to fight it. I just thought you might want to know. Good luck with wikipedia. - Sleepnomore 20:50, August 28, 2005 (UTC)

Your removal of duplicate wikilinks is not necessarily correct See Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(links) --Sleepyhead 21:21, 30 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

I was following the "A link is repeated within the same screen -- 40 lines, perhaps" guideline from that page; all of the WikiLinks that I removed were overlinked by that criteria. And none of them enhanced the meaning or encouraged curiosity beyond the original WikiLinks, so it made sense to me. Jason t c 21:56, August 30, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your message, Jason. I appreciate that you took the time to let me know. No worries about writing in English either ;-)

Kind regards,
