[edit] Mail

You got some. nobs 21:38, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

You got an answer :-) --Ebralph 21:51, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

More mail. nobs 22:07, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

It is indeed a burning issue. And needs to palced in proper context. nobs 22:40, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Venona project

Please be advised there is an attempt to re-politicize the Venona project once again with dispute tags and criticicism attacking the government's case against 171 individuals named. Those name have been removed in good faith to the new Signifcance of Venona article where discussion and arguements should be properly heard. If the intent is to re-politicize Venona materials with criticism which may be unfair and unfounded of the government's case, then the previously reverted materials may have to be reinserted for balance, unless a resolution can be found. You input would be appreciated. nobs 00:16, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks :)

This is formerly 128.194.54.244. Thanks for the help. As you can probably tell, this is something I feel strongly about. I'm gonna figure out some way to say what I want in this article, and a few others, because I know that what I'm trying to say is the unbiased truth. If that means doing a little research on the obvious, then when I get the time, so be it. BQAggie2004 04:15, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Reverts

Don't tell me what I have time for. Going through a certain set of articles and making quick edits and reverts only ever takes me at most around an hour or so in any particular session I may be able to do in total whereas anything approaching a serious discussion can eat that much at once. I gave a reason already for the revert, in the edit summary. That you don't agree with that brief statement and have the ability to revert on your own part is fine, but there is no concrete expectation of having a particularly in-depth rationale at any one point in time for doing any such thing at this site. If I say I don't have time for it today, don't pester me about it. --TJive 04:49, September 1, 2005 (UTC)

Tell me when you bore of the game.
Heavens, what damage I have caused in not illimunating my full rationale exactly when you commanded me to; why users might occasionally be deprived of Dirk's personal argumentations for several hours at a time, for no good reason!
Sorry if I give a bit more consideration to my words than to believe this all a "game"; it's supposed to be about the content, not the process, and most definitely not Twister or Monopoly. I will probably post on the talk page Saturday (as specific as I may afford to be), but it is likely irrelevant at this point. Have fun at your own game but I'm afraid I'm not able to play one. --TJive 19:17, September 1, 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Translations

You wouldn't happen to be interested in the author that shaped most Germans' view of America more than any other? I'm talking of Karl May and since his works are no longer copyrighted I have started a translation. You can find what I have so far here. My problem is that I'm not a native speaker of English. I can comfortably switch to English with a second's notice, but when I have a German text in front of me and try to translate it to English I often commit germanisms. Your input in this project would be really appreciated...
