User talk:Ched: Difference between revisions

Please note

I have moved my talk page to archives, and so the 4+ years of history from 2008 to 2012 can be found there (link). If there's a past discussion you want to view, you can find it there. Thank you.

Note 2

Also please note that this account is not very active as of mid-2012. If you wish to get in touch - you can stop by at User talk:Chedzilla and either post to that talk page - or email /that/ account. (due to security breaches in the Yahoo email system - I have changed the email to this account). My reasons for distancing myself from this (my administrative account) are two fold: 1) I wanted to get away from the HUGE watchlist I feel responsible to as an admin. 2) While there are a great number of "admins" that I truly admire and respect - the few bad apples that bring disrespect to the collective group have left me feeling frustrated and embarrassed to be a part of said group. I will still on occasion log in here if I feel my tools are needed to stop disruption, or to assist another good-faith editor in their efforts. In the end, I'd rather just work on articles - so if you're looking for me, I'm not retired, just changing directions. Stuff I'll likely be around: NASCAR, Movies, TV shows, Military History, literature, sci-fy, space, or just general copy-editing stuff/help. See ya out there. Thanks, Ched

Lead sentence.

2012 U.S. diplomatic missions attacks: On September 11, 2012, a series of protests started in response to a YouTube trailer of a film presented with the title Innocence of Muslims and considered blasphemous by many Muslims.

• Do some people actually believe that? Personally I'm sure glad I don't depend on Wikipedia for fact checking. — ChedZILLA 09:57, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

File:Katie Gallagher infobax image 2012.jpeg this one too. This one has a typo in the name that I fixed on Commons, so the Commons one won't "show through" after deletion. Name fixed in the article. Thanks. PumpkinSky talk 02:32, 16 September 2012 (UTC)

• The Shakespeare Insult Spout (beta version (Darwinbish's new template-in-progress)) has noticed your use of an opprobrious epithet and gone into payback action. For full effect, press the "here" link repeatedly. I'm sure you meant "drama whore" jocularly between friends, but it's a word with very poor history and associations on Wikipedia. Please be careful of the company you keep. Bishonen | talk 09:34, 16 September 2012 (UTC).

Don't call names, you yeasty clapper-clawed death-token!

Tears

I just ran across Template:Friendship Barnstar and read what you said about me. A tear formed in my Left eye. (My Right eye never cries in public). The fact that I was chopping onions for this evenings fish fry had nothing to do with it. TY. ```Buster Seven Talk 13:11, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
