Star Wars Wiki

Hey there. I have noticed your contributions to Star Wars articles, and I thought you might be interested in the Star Wars Wiki project. We could use new Star Wars contribs like yourself helping the cause. Take a look, and I hope to see you there. Cheers! --SparqMan 15:44, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

To help you with footnotes:Wikipedia:Citation templates, and Wikipedia:Citing sources. Most of the fields aren't necessary, just the main ones (author, URL, title, etc). --Mmx1 05:45, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Please help - inclusionism is "absurb" now

Sorry to bother you, but as an Inclusionist wikipedia things are getting desperate and I need to appeal to your for help. We are facing a situation where a deletionist admin is free to declare inclusionist arguments "absurd" and ignore them at will. If you don't agree with this situation, please share your opinion here.

Hi

adhd is not neuro

you just wrote in ECT talk: "ADHD is a neurological disorder..."

Have you read the recent discussion in the talk page of the ADHD article? Not even the DSM-IV claims that!

—Cesar Tort 03:34, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Not the point. Scuro's trying for the argument ad absurdum (or something like that in Latin). I'm showing how, at least structurally, how even "Minimal Brain Damage" can be safely put above. Don't worry too much about the contents - I didn't even so much as backcheck on Wikipedia when I scribbled that. --Kazuaki Shimazaki 03:45, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

The Great Mike Sparks Debate.

I just wanted to put in my tuppence worth in on the saga; alas, I cannot find an option to PM or find an email link. (OK, so I'm new here)

If you wouldn't mind, please drop me a line at <delete> (and then delete the email address from this page!)

Thanks much. Nicholas Noran 17:57, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

M113 vs. Stryker

Hello,

I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your tireless work on the Stryker controversy page. I'm a German, btw, and I can't understand why and how such an apparently flawed vehicle like the Stryker could ever make it into service and mass-production for the US Army. It's not even an American design. I needn't tell you all its flaws, you know them better than I - it's so ridiculous an IFV - and it would be a good joke if there weren't the millions of tax dollars gone to waste, and, even more important, the soldiers who had to lose their lives due to this inadequate, fundamentally flawed concept car. This is so sad. Anyway, keep up the good work.

To the Anon: Not really. I used to maintain it, but now I just leave it run by itself. It is surprising the negative points hadn't been all demolished by the zealous defenders of Stryker. Anyway, to be fair to the Stryker, there is one very positive thing about it: The soldiers really do seem to like it, even after factoring in the propaganda factor. So I guess they at least fought and died happy (their last thoughts were not "Oh the US Army gave us this Piece of Sh*t to ride in."). That in itself is a positive, given the importance of morale to a unit. --Kazuaki Shimazaki 09:53, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Alfa sub article

The part that is bullshit is that the adjustment they are referring to does not affect a PWR operationally. The power changes to meet demand almost instantaneously in a PWR.

Typo

I wanted to inform you of an unfortunate typo you appear to have made (here). I surely hope it was not intentional, but you called him "Dickhunter" instead of "Duckhunter." I just want you to know, so you can fix it and avoid saying something like that by accident. Regards. --Cheeser1 08:08, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Arrgh. Stupid mistake. Thanks for telling me. --Kazuaki Shimazaki 09:13, 18 October 2007 (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.
