[edit] Requested

Take a look here: Earl De La Warr and see if your fella is on there. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Peerage have done a great job setting up a framework for lords and ladies. :) The name Thomas de la Warr itself should probably be a disambiguation page... jengod 22:38, Apr 22, 2004 (UTC)

  • Seems like the one I want is Thomas la Warr, 5th baron. But the sources I find generally have his year of death as 1427. Rhymeless 03:54, 23 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Dominican Revolutionary Party

If these guys are a notable party, I will gladly write a short article based on the current text after the current article is deleted. Just drop me a note on my talk page to confirm. Isomorphic 01:45, 5 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] WP:VfD

Sorry, but I accidentally overwrote your comment on Creeping crud during an edit conflict. I dug your comment up from history, though, and put it at MediaWiki:VfD-Creeping Crud; please let me know if I mucked it up further. Again, my apologies. - jredmond 05:20, 22 May 2004 (UTC)

  • Not exactly something I'm terribly worried about, honestly. But thanks for letting me know. Rhymeless 05:30, 22 May 2004 (UTC)
    • No problem. It's been speedy-deleted anyway, so it's a moot point at best. - jredmond 05:44, 22 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Ideological assumption

Thanks for catching the father/mother thing! Guess I shouldn't type on zero sleep. -Seth Mahoney 04:14, Jun 8, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Oh Yeah!

I was just reverting to what seemed to me to be a stable version. This was the version that existed prior to the anon's nonsense additions. If you think that what you included is appropriate, I have no problem with your reverting my reversion. RickK 20:52, Jun 13, 2004 (UTC)

Greetings. I noticed you created an article on "Robert Macklin", but gave his name in the article itself as "Roger Macklin". Which is it? Cheers JackofOz 10:51, 16 Jun 2004 (UTC)

  • Oh, damn. It's Roger. Thanks for catching that. Cripes, that means it's time to go to sleep XD Rhymeless 11:01, 16 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Thanks, and sweet dreams. JackofOz 11:05, 16 Jun 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Lake Maracaibo/1964

Can you please tell me what's going on at Lake Maracaibo/1964 and how it's even remotely encyclopedic? I was just about to delete it as patent nonsense until I saw that you were the creator, so I've given it some time, but it really doesn't belong here. RickK 05:31, Jun 19, 2004 (UTC)

  • Someone else left it on there, and I wasn't sure what to do with it, go with whatever is procedure. I tried searching, I couldn't find a source. Rhymeless 06:07, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Wikilinks added

Hi! I was wondering about your edit on Stanislav Petrov, adding wikilinks to the phrases "nuclear holocost" "counterattack" and "false alarm". Are you planning to write articles on those topics, or do you think that we need someone else to do so? Also, I notice you linked the second appearance of the phrase "nuclear weapon", already linked earlier in the article. Usually, linking on the first appearance of such a phrase in the text of an article is considered sufficent; no need to link each occurance. Cheers, -- Infrogmation 07:07, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)

  • Soz, missed that it was the second occurrence of "nuclear weapon". Yes, I do plan to do articles on those topics if possible, although "nuclear holocaust" may be a bit beyond my expertise. Rhymeless 07:17, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Cool. Sometimes its a ballancing act to decide between too many wikilinks and too few. I was wondering about a couple of those; sorry if I sounded harsh. From what I've seen, your edits look good. Thanks for the reply, Cheers, -- Infrogmation 07:24, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Actually, I definately understand why you flagged on it. I'd gone to the article hoping to add something, and then saw that there wasn't all that much for me to do. Thanks though. Rhymeless 07:37, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)
