Anti-vandalism rant
editDear NorseOdin,
I can't help but notice that I have been accused of adding 'nonsense' to wikipedia, simply by virtue of having been allocated this IP address yesterday. When you are going to make accusations like that please investigate whether the subnet is owned by an enormous home ISP.
Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.134.109.166 (talk) 11:42, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

NorseOdin, Thanks for your contribs on the Bipolar talk page. I have noticed that many people have strong and conflicting opinions on many subjects which relate to Bipolar disorder. I think it might be good in these instances to present one side, then the other (hopefully achieving NPOV in the balance) and let the reader decide. If you'd like to write up some info to counter the marijuana section, I can help with some references. Drop me an email if you'd like to work on this together.

Klay Scott
editHey, just got you message, I am glad to be of help. I have updated the article with as much as I know and have gathered from across the net; unfortunately, info on Klay's life is a little hard to come across, given his reclusive & privte lifestyle. I have renamed the article to his current name because it's the one that nearly all of his fans, old and new, know him by. I am also almost dead certain that Scott Albert is his birth name, because his younger brother's name is Dan Albert, and he operate under the stage name of Level in a one-man EBM/Electronica band. Hopfully, you, me and whoever else who is familler with all of Klay & Co work's can over time build up more articles for their various projects. Avador 05:15, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
Someone who knows something
editMr. Norse Odin,
Sir, you should not correct the Air Force Academy article unless you happen to have first-hand knowledge of the school and its nicknames. You are permitted to call it "The Hill", "USAFA", maybe "The Zoo" even though no one refers to it as such, or "The Academy." Henceforth notwithstanding, it is never referred to as Colorado Springs. Therefore, since I am not a member of the COunter Vandalism (nrrrrrrrrrr) unit, and I do not have the ability to make changes without you changing them to falsities within a minute, you are the one who holds the key. You have the ability to help young students across the nation, nay the World, get their information correct on book reports, geographical analyzations, oral presentations, and personal projects. Consider the idea that someone added the information that we gained our independence from Alberta, Canada in 1974 while fighting the Battle of Baffin Bay. Some young teenager would use Wikipedia for a source and obviously get that wrong. You and I both know we gained our independence from Djibouti following the Boxer Rebellion. So thank you. And again...you hold the key. It's not a job, it's an adventure. In all seriousness, the Academy is NEVER referred to as Colorado Springs. Or even C-Springs or The Springs. Please make the necessary corrections. I know you will do the right thing. You hold the key. The space shuttle is made of lustrium. Bush again in '08. Slip the surly bonds of earth, Someone who knows something

Thank you - U.S. FAC
editHi,
Thank you for supporting the recent FAC of United States, but unfortunately it failed to pass. However, I hope you will vote again in the future. In the mean time, please accept this Mooncake as a token of my gratitude.--Ryz05 t 15:45, 11 June 2006 (UTC)Natural Burial AfD nomination
editAs you had commented on this article in the past I would ask that you please review my comments regarding your nomination for deletion for Mike Salisbury. I have not had the chance to reply to all of the Natural Burial articles that have been tagged for deletion but will do so shortly. Theses articles are notable however they are WORKS IN PROCESS and require additional research and referencing. I hope you will support this initiative, although they still need work I believe they make a reasonable contribution to the encyclopaedia.Eulogy4Afriend 15:37, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Ice Hockey August 2007 Newsletter

WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear NorseOdin! You are receiving this newsletter because you have signed up as a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey. The purpose of this newsletter is to update on the goings on of the project, as there have been major changes, and a lot of new recognized content in the past few weeks. If you are an inactive user, you probably won't recognize the new and improved state of the WikiProject! From the project, Maxim. New recognized content By Maxim
Article Improvement By Maxim Upon some discussion on the WikiProject talk page, the Article Improvement Drive page was revamped by Krm500 and Maxim. It was renamed Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey/Article Improvement, and it includes two section. The first section is called articles in dire need of improvement. It list articles, usually important, that are in very poor shape. The second section is called requested help. Users list an article they request help improving a certain article, which will facilitate collaboration, which is the aim of any WikiProject. There is one article currently listed there, Henrik Lundqvist, here. The goal is to at least get it to Good article status. Diacritics By Maxim In the past few weeks, there has been quite heated discussion about the use of diacritics in article name. The current guideline is using diacritics in the pages of articles of all player names which require them, but redirects are exempt. Task forces By Maxim This task force was initiated by Krm500. Its current goal is to improve Henrik Lundqvist to Good or Featured article status. It covers all Swedish clubs, leagues and competitions and associated articles, players and coaches that are Swedish, or have played/coached for a Swedish club, and arenas in Sweden. They plan to eventually operate as a sort of a sub-project, which will have its own articles for creation, ranking importance and quality of articles, and co-ordinate article improvement. Its current members are Krm500, Bamsefar75, and CLAES. This task force was initiated by Bsroiaadn. Its goal is to improve New Jersey Devils to Featured Topic status. Although it currently meets the required article count, the task force wishes to improve it further. Its area of coverage is very similar to the Sweden Ice Hockey task force. Its members are Bsroiaadn, JHMM13, FutureNJGov, Sportskido8, Michael Greiner, JRWalko, and Soxrock. Requested Images By Maxim

New recognized content By Maxim Especially due to the featured topic drive, there have been many new featured lists promoted concerning NHL awards. Here's the full list of all the 13 FL's promoted since the last newsletter.[1][2]
There have been no new good articles or featured articles. Maurice 'Rocket' Richard Trophy has been given A-Class status due to multiple issues raised at FLC.
Did You Know? By Maxim
Featured Topic Drive By Maxim Started by User:Scorpion0422, the aim of this drive is to make NHL awards a featured topic. A featured topic is basically a set of very high quality articles (good articles and featured articles/lists). In this case, the topic is NHL awards. Many users have helped, including Scorpion0422, Resolute, Serte, Hasek is the best, Maxim, Croat Canuck, Spike Wilbury, FutureNJGov, and T Rex/Dinosaur puppy. The progress has been very good; there are 12 featured lists promoted, and 2 good articles:
Check the project page if you are interested in helping out. Although it's closer to being done than not, there's still work to be done. The next topic that might be tackled is Stanley Cup, but this remains purely speculative and in discussion. |

Task forces We are working to create a new task force within the WikiProject to deal with topics related to the Pittsburgh Penguins. It hasn't been created yet; but it aims to expand articles based on former and current Pittsburgh Penguins players and articles. Good luck! New Administrators Currently 0 promoted admins! Be the first one at WP:RFA. Featured Topic Drive By Maxim The original featured topic drive, initiated by Scorpion0422, has concluded succesfully. National Hockey League awards is now a featured topic, with 24 articles in total. Of them, 20 are featured lists, one is a featured article, and the other three are trophy articles that were too short to become featured lists. Eight users signed up to help out, shown here. The next Featured Topic hasn't been decided upon, and the ideas and organization for it fell apart. If you have any ideas, don't hesitate to share them at WT:HOCKEY. Notes
