see my talk page for my reply. Bebop 19:20, 19 July 2005 (UTC) Also, I eventually reviewed the fact that I had been intending for a couple of days to move my suggestions that had become moot (due to people making edits to the article language in question without any consideration of my text suggestions) to my talk page or just to remove them period because they stay in the History file anyway, and the page had gotten too long. The page had a length warning on it. So I moved the entire text suggestions section I originally authored and initiated off the page just now, providing a link to it and also putting it in my talk page for further comments. But it is irrelevant because the suggestions were ignored and not discussed and there are new matters needing discussion; the page is not a watermelon racism page; it is an article on watermelons. Someone has added new edits reclassifying the plant as a veggie, so I have begun a new section to help clarify if they were correct or not. If you still wish to discuss usage of "Americans" improperly to mean one race (as any kindergartener is taught not to do), my user talk page beckons, but I can assure you I neither subconsciously nor consciously ever make such a mistake normally, other than in the odd situation where I made en masse text changes to several sentences at once on a different point (removing comments about Southerners being mocked by Northerners of both races for Southern food preferences) from the same sentence and didn't see what it had done to the one sentence.

- Thanks for your reply at my page and your offer of future collaboration; I appreciate it, and sorry for my concern over people's possible perception of my edit goof. I will improve my editing care after this. Bebop 05:21, 20 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

MINUSTAH article

edit

Thank you for adding a lot of sources and information to the MINUSTAH article I wrote. I wrote it in the hopes that just this thing would happen. Information is power.Billy P 21:17, 1 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

I"m pretty sure I didn't edit that article, but I have put a lot of information into various related articles. There's an article on my user page you might be interested in. I'm not sure we've even edited any articles in common, that would be a nice button to have: compare contributions/contributions to the same articles... Good to meet you though.
