[edit] Edits concerning NSD

Brucevdk. I am not sure what you had intended to say with the sentence "NSD was developed." on the NSD article you updated recently. Please update/clarify. Thanks -- enyc Enyc 22:36, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean. These were the changes I made, I never modified the content of the article I just converted external links into references and added a disambiguation link to the Nassi-Shneiderman diagram article. The changes you're talking about were made by an anonymous user (User:80.126.124.36) after my own, see this change log. --Bruce 13:25, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] animated GIF image

Hello,

I noticed you removed the animated GIF image from Franklin D. Roosevelt which someone else recently added from Wikipedia Commons, and was wondering why? JGHowes talk - 04:45, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

I removed it because of 2 reasons: 1) I'm not very fond of animated GIF images and 2) it wasn't near anything relevant. I looked it up and the image was added by User:Alex:Dan on February 16, 2007 (see user contributions, see article diff) along with many other animated GIFs to other articles.
I have to admit that my reasons for removing the image are quite subjective/personal, if you strongly feel like the image should be put back into the article you're obviously free to do so. I'm not aware of any policy/guideline recommending against using animated GIFs representing fragments of movies. If you do add it back, I request that you verify the reason as mentioned on the image description page. Notice that the original caption was "Roosevelt signing war declaration against Japan in 1941".
I'm wondering though, why did you feel the need to contact me about this issue? --Bruce 08:12, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, Bruce, for the info. I have no strong feelings one way or the other about that particular gif, I was just wondfering if there's some Wikipedia policy or guideline about animated gifs I'm not aware of, and figured you'd know. I refrain from reverting an established editor without discussing it first, hence my post on your Talk page. Cheers, JGHowes talk - 03:38, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
Excellent, glad to be of service. --Bruce 11:27, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
