Tool-assistance improvement drive

Hi Ouzo. Since you're a Wikipedian and also a member of Bisqwit's site, I'd like to direct your attention to the tool-assisted speedrun article, which I would like to do an improvement drive for this weekend. I'll personally be editing it heavily to try to bring it up to the status of good article, but I'll need the help of good editors who know a lot about the phenomenon. It would be great if you could help out! The talk page contains some information that you could get started with. In case you're up for some editing, see you there! —Michiel Sikma, 06:36, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Howdy! In regards to the above page, I've reverted it to the current damage control page that the admin staff agreed to. If you check the history, you'll see that other admins have been reverting other well meaning messages, so please don't take it personally. Regards, CHAIRBOY (☎) 23:17, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Joe Francis

I notice that you reverted the removal of Joe Francis from the Jewish American film directors category. Am I to take this to mean you have found a reliable, citable source that states that he is Jewish? If not, you may want to reconcider your revert.Lkinkade 16:45, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Is he? It has always been on the article, so when it was removed by an anon, I took this as vandalism. My humble apologies if this isn't the case. --Ouzo 20:12, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

I honestly do not know. I don't see removing it as vandalism though. I am going to ask some others to see what they think. I don't like having any details in a potentially controversial articles that are not well cited, so my inclination is to remove it.Lkinkade 20:54, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Religious perspectives on dinosaurs

Hi - was editing there just now. Would appreciate you having another look over the new lead. Any comments just put them on its discusion page. I'll be back to find out what a speedrun is. SmithBlue 08:27, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Minneosta State Highway 101

Please keep this in mind when editing MN articles - Per WP:USRD All termini (in the infobox) starting directions are South and West and end directions are north and East. Thank you for helping. -- master_son^{Talk - Edits} 20:37, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh okay. I just figured the 'North End' would be, you know, ...north. --Ouzo 20:46, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Tom Baynard edit

Hi, Ouzo. Thanks for bringing me up to speed on the Tom Barnard edit that I reverted. I've removed the warning and apologized to Wikiitoo. Justin Eiler (talk) 23:44, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Rock Band

Hi dude I dont know how to do the messaging thing you did to me but I found a valid citation for the rock band entry I put on talk to discuss but dont remove as it seems valid to me —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thenextavailable (talk • contribs) 15:15, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

My Reason for Talking About Brierdale, Florida

The reason that I talk about Brierdale, Florida so much is because I want the entire world to know what goes down in Brierdale, Florida like the different genres of television series like the telenovelas and talk shows Brierdale, Florida produces every year and the crimes against innocent people that go down in the city every day. I just want the entire world to know about my fictional city so I could write more [storylines]] about what happens down there. So, I'm asking you, please let me talk about Brierdale, Florida again, please? Ericthebrainiac (talk) 20:10, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure why you're asking me, but Wikipedia is NOT the place for you to document your made-up soap operas and their settings. Join a Usenet group or create your own website for that stuff. And for God's sake, STOP LINKING EVERY OTHER WORD YOU TYPE. --Ouzo (talk) 20:30, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Repeatedly removing my discussion?

Hi, is there a reason you keep removing my discussion on the Xango article, other than that you disagree with it? Android 93 (talk) 14:02, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm not removing it, I'm putting it at the bottom of the page per WP:TALK. You can go there by clicking here. --Ouzo (talk) 14:24, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Your revert on rock band list

i dont see why youd revert something without explaining why you think the edit reduces the quality of the article. if youre doing it on someone elses behalf, id appreciate if youd let them speak for themselves. theres no reason to include the redundant information and theres no point in keeping the article in a quagmire. If people want to speak against the edit, they should use the talk page, and they need to actively contribute to the debate. you cant just post "i dont like it" once and then consider the case closed 142.106.63.213 (talk) 17:06, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Please keep this kind of discussion on the talk page. Oh, and quote me where i said "I don't like it" or anything resembling that. --Ouzo (talk) 23:15, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

What 142.106.63.213 said

What 142.106.63.213 said about just saying "I don't like it" on your page has just given me an awesome idea. Maybe next time I get a speedy deletion notice, I would like to put "I don't like it" in my talk page. Thank You! Ericthebrainiac (talk) 18:51, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Post on my talk page again and I'll have you reported. --Ouzo (talk) 23:01, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Ericthebrainiac

That is the best answer I received on my talk page. I shall give you some prize for that :D. Greetings. --Bolt (Talk) 19:46, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Louie Giglio

Thank you for your recent contributions. A recent edit of yours to the article Louie Giglio has an edit summary that seems to be unduly contentious. Please use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Thanks again for your contributions. Bwrs (talk) 21:38, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

"unduly contentious"? Don't strain yourself, buddy. --Ouzo (talk) 21:22, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

92 KQRS Morning Show

thanks for the encouragement. the material in the Barnard article was light on substance, style and references so I have been steadily researching and rewriting everything. I haven't listened in many years, but I figured the crew were still worthy of a decent wikiarticle. anyway, glad somebody noticed :D Ehren (talk) 23:51, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of 2009 in downloadable songs for the Rock Band series

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is 2009 in downloadable songs for the Rock Band series. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2009 in downloadable songs for the Rock Band series (2nd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:05, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Ouzo. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Ouzo~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

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.
