Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions; here are a few good links (even though I know you've been around for quite some time ^_^):

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to see the help pages, add a question to the village pump, or ask me on my Talk page.

Happy Wiki-ing!

HMS Victory

edit

The status of HMS Victory came straight from the Royal Navy's website, see http://www.royal-navy.mod.uk/static/pages/3512.html

I did that 7 months ago. :P Simply put, if anything it didn't belong in the header. I moved them lower in the article. A reference saying that these are their codenames would be extremely useful, though. I didn't remove them, I just took them out of the intro where they didn't belong. Someone else removed them, in this edit summary: "(cur) (last) 22:08, Jan 26, 2005 4.47.234.98 (these change as soon as anyone finds out about them, anyway)" So it probably doesn't make sense to put them back, unless you can cite a reference. --Golbez 17:46, May 5, 2005 (UTC)

Hi - it looks like a not very pleasant "vanity article" - not by the woman herself, but by someone who has a grudge against her. Someone else has already tagged this for speedy deletion, so it won't be long before it's removed. If you find any other articles that look dubious, then you can either list it for speedy deletion if it meets the criteria on this page, or if not, you can list it on Wikipedia:Votes for deletion. Thanks for pointing it out! Grutness...wha? 07:24, 30 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

Cyril Suk article

edit

In response to your question about the article I wote on the tennis player Cyril Suk, the reason I was able to get it to that length in only two edits is because I'd already written articles about his sister Helena Sukova and mother Vera Sukova, so much of the info was already on hand. The info came from three main sources:

ATP tennis profile on Cyril Suk - http://www.atptennis.com/en/players/playerprofiles/default2.asp?playernumber=S329

WTA tennis profile on Helena Sukova - http://www.wtatour.com/players/playerprofiles/playerbio.asp?PlayerID=190110

Website about Vera and Helena Sukova and family - http://www.sukova.org/

All info was reformatted by me and written in my own words. I hope that addresses your concerns. (203.120.68.68)

Van Statten

Why isn't he a villain? He was the bad guy - capturing the Doctor and the Dalek, torturing both, willing to sacrifice his men... even though he was a bit helpless at the end and had a slight change of heart, he was definitely sharing the villain spot with the Dalek. --khaosworks 13:02, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)

Doctor Who edits

edit

I simply clean up edits - I am a bit more ruthless than most when it comes to Doctor Who, but that's because I want to have the articles to a particular standard, and most times I do give reasons for reversions and edits. If you have any issues with those reversions you are more than welcome to take your reasons to talk and let the other editors chime in on them. If you want me to clarify my edits, you are also more than welcome to ask me and I will do my best to explain them. --khaosworks 08:21, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

Daleks hovering as kneeling

edit

You don't need a license. What you need to do is back up your edits with evidence. If you can point to me a clear piece of on screen evidence that says that the Daleks are hovering around him in worship, please do. Take that to the Talk:Dalek page. --khaosworks 16:57, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

You can't argue from contra-evidence because there could be any number of explanations. They could have been simply guarding him (higher ground is tactically better). They could have been invisibly recharging from him. The production team could have thought it simply looked cool. Point is, you don't know for sure, and it is fallacious to phrase it as definitive when that is the case. If you still want to discuss it, take it to Talk:Dalek, and we can see what the others think about it. --khaosworks 17:09, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

Left/right/bold/italic

edit

You had it almost perfect; check the difference. I do stuff like that all the time, so I was pretty sure what to look for. Joyous (talk) 18:21, August 5, 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I retagged the above image as "no license" because, although you may have created it yourself, it's clearly a derivative work. Please provide a suitable justification for each article in which it's used under the Non-free content criteria within seven days. --Tony Sidaway 00:49, 8 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
