I am glad that you check by on occasion see the progress made. However, if there is one thing I might not be able to do, it is to specify the time when people eat dinner. The only thing I have found was a travel guide that says eat before 20,00 hours or prepare for the dinner from hell. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 21:46, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
- I'm working a bit more on what you said, I hope I haven't missed anything else. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 01:26, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- One more thing, about the template issue, it was reverted. I am not sure where this style method is from, but I noticed this also on Japan, an article about a country that is Featured. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 22:22, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for coming back and changing the vote. I should have known about people going away for the holidays, but I am glad you are enjoying the article. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 18:59, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism
Thanks! Though anyone can remove vandalism promptly with a high speed connection, Firefox, and WP:TWINKLE :) BlueAg09 (Talk) 02:37, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Not much edit warring going now - that means you did a great job in writing the article! I'm going to sign out in a few minutes - hopefully there won't be much vandalism overnight. BlueAg09 (Talk) 03:03, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Merry Christmas to you too! BlueAg09 (Talk) 03:11, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for everything. Not much edit warring going on right now. I think this one went smoother...then again, people are reading the article and what is written versus complaining, "Well, that can't be right. I'm an engineer. Those people are idiots who wrote this." All-in-all, it makes for a pleasant holiday season. Merry Christmas! — BQZip01 — talk 04:07, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Gotta admire creativity at least. Hell, given my last experience, I wouldn't mind someone replacing the entire page with GO LONGHORNS!!! At least that is easy to revert and there needs to be little discussion. Anyway, back to watching the page! — BQZip01 — talk 04:19, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

I've added citations after the quotes as you suggested (thanks for linking to that "When to cite" page; it's useful stuff). Could you perhaps reconsider your assessment of the article? Thanks for your review. CloudNine (talk) 15:17, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Have you had a chance to revisit this FAC yet ? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:13, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- I've now merged the sections (your only remaining request). Could you perhaps reconsider your assessment of the article? CloudNine (talk) 13:01, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
Happy Holidays
I assume I can say Merry Christmas to you. Have a happy new year. 2007 has been incredible for A&M wikipedia pages. I am hoping everything is going well for you. best of luck for next year Oldag07 (talk) 20:07, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
Ian Svenonius FAC
First off, thanks for your comments at the Ian Svenonius FAC. I wanted to ask you if there was anything else I could do to earn your support vote for the article. Not that staying neutral is a bad thing, but I'd like to see everyone completely satisfied that the article is up to spec before/if it gets promoted. Either way, thanks for taking the time to help me improve the article. Drewcifer (talk) 01:46, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
Successful FAC
Thank you for providing comments on how to to improve the article at the successful FA nomination of Vasa (ship). Happy holidays and all that!
Thriving Cult
Thanks for the copyedits! Much appreciated. Cirt (talk) 05:24, 30 December 2007 (UTC).
- Just to keep you updated, I addressed all of your points from the FAC page, except for: Many, many sentences in the article read "So and so stated that...." Can you try to work on some of these to vary them a little? That will make the article read better. -- I will try to work on this one too, but I just wanted to let you know I addressed your other points. Cirt (talk) 07:22, 30 December 2007 (UTC).
- Please see the FAC page. I believe I have addressed this last point of yours, I hope, to your satisfaction. Cirt (talk) 10:48, 2 January 2008 (UTC).
- Again, nice copyedits, thank you! Cirt (talk) 03:07, 3 January 2008 (UTC).

I'm finding it hard to understand why your excellent Jim Bowie article hasn't already gathered enough support to sail through its FA nomination. Where are all those red-blooded Americans who remember the Alamo when you need them? :-)
Do you think it might be time to ask Tony if he'd be prepared to take another look and maybe support it now? --Malleus Fatuorum (talk) 20:08, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
- The article says that Bowie considered himself a colonel, and so outranked Travis, but it doesn't say what rank Travis held in the army. --Malleus Fatuorum (talk) 20:16, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Mentoring the New Kid
La Grande Merci, Madame! I noted that the Acadia article missing a bit of attribution, so I tried to add one. The code-usage of wikidom may come to me with time. My next project is to enter a biography for Nicolas Denys. This is complicated, seeing as how so many sources (including Denys' writings!) are contradictory. It will be a bit sparse, since I will just not talk about any fact not corroborated or outright contradicted. I'm looking at other biographies in the 'pedia for style. Again,my great thanks! I want to be just like you if I grow up! LTC David J. Cormier (talk) 19:49, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
The Denys article is in the Wikipedia. It is much easier to deal with someone whose life has a beginning, middle and end. Best of luck with the Bowie article! I don't envy you having to unentangle myth and innuendo. LTC David J. Cormier (talk) 04:30, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Bowie
Hi Karanacs; yes, I will gladly take a look. As I recall you've reviewed at least two or three of mine, and I need to return the favour, so feel free to nudge me again if you have something else up for FA that you would like me to look at. I will head over to it now, but if real life intervenes I may not get to post anything till tomorrow. Thanks for the note. Mike Christie (talk) 20:47, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Campus of TAMU
First off, happy new year. next. I am trying to update the Campus of Texas A&M University page. I have a rough draft done, and I would like someone to look over it before I post it. Oldag07 (talk) 19:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Uh oh
Well, I've decided to apply to join the dark side. As a user with whom I have interacted, I would appreciate your input on my nomination. This is not a request for support, though any support would be appreciated, but simply a request for feedback. — BQZip01 — talk 03:32, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
Z retired again
Z retired again. [1] I had suggested in AN that such be enforced by a one year block, but nobody answered the suggestion. -- SEWilco (talk) 16:02, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks!
Thanks for the Barnstar. I enjoy doing the tagging and assessments, so you'll probably see me on your watchlist in the coming weeks (on Texas and Food and Drink). I want to retire that back log of unassessed articles on TX this month, and then see what else can be done on the project. I am curious, which articles did you create that I tagged?
Again, thanks for the pat on the back! Jacksinterweb (talk) 17:50, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for your review of this article some time ago. DrKiernan has done quite a thorough copyedit for this article (separate from the League of Copyeditors) and (after my response to his suggestions) was satisfied to support the nomination. I was wondering whether you could look over the article again and check whether your concerns have been fixed. Whenever you're free, no rush:) Thanks again, PeterSymonds | talk 23:17, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
At the end of December you left comments on my FAC and i was wondering whether you'd be willing to see if i have met your suggestions as much as possible and whether you feel you are now able to support this nomination. Seddon69 (talk) 00:05, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
Bowie map
I think it might confuse people -- it is quite hard to read. I suggest leaving it for now, and let's get the article through FAC. I may be able to create a map for you -- take a look at User:Mike_Christie/Anglo-Saxon_research_resources#Maps for some maps I've created. If you think something like that could help, I'd be happy to put one together for you -- maybe one that duplicates the key information on the old map. Anyway, it can wait till after FAC.

Armenian Forgeries
The page which you have tagged for speedy deletion clearly does not belong in wikipedia, but speedy does not apply. I have removed your tag and replaced it with a {{prod}}, which will lead to automatic deletion in five days if no further action is taken. I will watch, and ask you to do so; if the prod tag is removed then the page can go to AfD. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 21:22, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Please do not think that I was criticising you - I had no such intention. But if I delete as speedy an article which does not come under speedy criteria, the author has a cast-iron case for restoration regardless of the merits of the article. This way I hope to make it quick, clean and permanent. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 21:30, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- I must agree with you on this one, hopefully someone will re-edit the article to make it match wikipedia standards. Arsenic99 (talk) 22:16, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Armenian forgeries
Sorry about the Article deletion comment I made on Armenian Forgeries talk page. You're right about it. I later noticed that it didn't meet wikipedia policies and that it was indeed a lot of copying going on. However, I think the main reason for people to do this is because, the Armenian Genocide article is like on total lockdown by Armenophile wikipedians who delete anything that might hint that the Armenian genocide theory is not a proven event but a debated one that historians like Dr. Gunter Lewy (Ottoman History), Dr. Bernard Lewis (Islamic History), Dr. Stanford Shaw (Ottoman history), Dr. Justin McCarthy (demographic expert; Balkans expert), and Dr. Norman Stone (WWI historian) and many others all have disagreed about calling those events in the 1900s genocide. I remember when there were some people that did try and edit that main article but usually ended up failing in edit wars. I'm sure you've heard of the wikiality phrase, well this is one of the major cases of it. But thank you for pointing out that the article in question (Armenian forgeries) needed greater revision, or perhaps deletion. There are sources in that article that are extremely biased and I always wonder why great wikipedians don't ever notice it, perhaps its just too deep a subject for average wikipedians to tell who's biased and who isn't. Arsenic99 (talk) 02:43, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
A note of thanks
Thank you, Karanacs, for your support during this unpleasant incident. I am deeply grateful, and hope to return from a week of travel with renewed energy and enthusiasm for Wiki. Best, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:57, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
GA review of Spanish Texas
I've reviewed Spanish Texas, and it's an excellent article! Just a few small quibbles in the prose, which I've detailed on the talk page. I've put the nomination on hold for seven days to give folks a chance to address them. Thanks for a great article! Ealdgyth | Talk 18:53, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Mashantucket Pequot
In your edits to the Mashantucket Pequot article, you removed the following: Since Foxwoods opening, the Mashantucket Pequot have used the casino's revenue to continue expanding their [[reservation]], which currently is about 1,800 acres (7 km²).{{fact}}
Was that deletion intentional or was it (as I am inclined to assume) just collateral damage in the process of improving adjacent text? --Orlady (talk) 16:38, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for your reply. When I added those fact tags a couple of days ago, I thought it possible that the tags would get the attention of someone with direct (local) knowledge of the situation and access to reliable non-Internet information sources. --Orlady (talk) 19:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Vampire is now featured!
Hi Karanacs (talk) ! I will look up the page number tomorrow, and put it in. Anderson is pretty adamant on issues of genicide towards the Native Americans - he claims millions were killed through disease, war, et al. I appreciate your help in identifying sections which need citation - you are an extremely skilled editor, and any article you work on is the better for it. Speaking of that, I posted some new articles recently that could benefit from your review - Isa-tai, Dohäsan, Satanta, and Koitsenko ANY editing help you could give would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! JohninMaryland (talk) 23:06, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
2007 Hawaii Bowl FAC
Greetings. You recently reviewed the 2007 Hawaii Bowl. You wrote
The game recap section is full of very short paragraphs. Can they be better merged so that they flow?
Should I merge the paragraphs together or add more information to each paragraph? On another FA on a specific game, the person made each score a paragraph. Please respond on my talkpage. Thanks, PGPirate 18:08, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
- Greetings. I merged some paragraphs together, so the article flows better. I don't know what is wrong with some of the references date. I have looked at them all. If you get a chance, could you possibly read over the article again and give your support:). If needed, please respond on my talkpage. Thanks, PGPirate 03:03, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Nancy Reagan
Hi. I am new to Wikipedia and am having some trouble with some of the editors on the Nancy Reagan article. As you identified here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Nancy_Reagan/archive2 "Nancy Reagan is like royalty?????", also your comments regarding the layout no making sense), many of the items are written in a Non NPOV.
I have cited many sources and offered many solutions to minor details in the article to improve it's viewpoint (on the Nancy Reagan discussion page), but four editors in particular (Users: Happyme22, Wasted_Time_R, SandyGeorgia, and Tvoz) have consistently teamed together in support of each other's actions and edits in moving this article forward to FA status while giving little or no validity to any contrary opinions., despite multiple reasonable requests and many many reliable cited sources.
I have begun the appeal process but the same three editors acted in the same way, and I don't know how to move forward to make the changes necessary. Can you PLEASE PLEASE review my comments on the Nancy Reagan discussion page and PLEASE PLEASE help?
Thank you in advance so very much for your cooperation.

Rabi David Stern
Hi! I'm just wondering the focus on the David E. Stern article. I don't dispute the general nature of your nobility question, but it seems like energies could be better spent. Synagogues and rabbis don't have general and school newspapers to validate their actions. Couldn't this been seen as references from the net leads to an inherent bias against certain subjects? What is "notable" is different in different communities. Within the Jewish world, he is notable. I know you are just editing for the benefit of Wikipedia. I just see this as pushing out smaller articles for no real reason other than the majority, not familiar with the topics, can. So, I'm just wondering why the focus here (and I presume eventually on the rest of the so-so notable, hard to validate using web resources, hard to quantify what is notable in the Reform Jewish religious world rabbis throughout Texas that have articles.) There are only a few people who spend their time writing useful articles on Reform Jewish subjects. I'd hate to see them - like me - discouraged when their efforts are declared "not notable" by others and shunted aside. I appreciate your time. JerseyRabbi (talk) 22:35, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Help!
Hi Karanacs (talk) ! I could use your skills in editing my new article Robert Neighbors. He is famous in Texas history for being the first Indian Agent to actually learn the Comanche language and culture, and travel to the Comancheria while they were still free. He ended up being murdered for protecting them after some of them surrendered and were helpless on reservations. I would greatly appreciate your seeing if I moderated my language sufficiently - I tried! But the article needs your magic touch! Also, I am writing articles on the German-Indian Treaty, the Quaker Peace Policy, and the trial of Satanta and Big Tree for the Warren Wagon Train Raid - any thoughts on what I should call that article? Again, your help is always GREATLY appreciated. JohninMaryland (talk) 17:11, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

- Hi Karanacs (talk) ! I really appreciate your help, and your kind words on the articles. Your help is enormously appreciated, because you really improve the articles. I am a good researcher and fair writer - you are an EXCELLENT writer in addition to being a good researcher yourself! I hope if you have a chance, you will look at the Neighbors Expedition article I posted today. You will love the fact that Indian champion Neighbors best friend was no other than champion Indian fighter "Rip" Ford of the Rangers, and Neighbors took him with him on his famous expedition to El Paso! Incredibly, Neighbors reported to the military - and he was the FIRST MAN TO MEASURE THE DISANCE! - that El Paso was 598 miles from Austin, and that is EXACTLY what it is measured at today! And we use the same road Neighbors recommended in 1849! The article could really benefit from your "magic touch," if you have a chance...Thanks again, and you will really enjoy the articles coming up on the first trial of Indian Chiefs, the Quaker Peace Policy, Old Owl, and more. Take care! JohninMaryland (talk) 22:26, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Karanacs or Karen?
Hi -- I see from your talk page that your name is Karen; do you have a preference for what people call you? I'd naturally use Karen since I know that's your name, but I don't know you well enough to know if you'd rather people just used Karanacs. (I did see DrKiernan using "Karen" but then I thought perhaps you and he know each other well.) Thanks for the review on Aldfrith, by the way; I am still in your debt to the tune of several reviews, so please nudge me if you have something you'd like me to look at -- I don't always notice everything that's at FAC. Mike Christie (talk) 11:08, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
- "Karen" it is then, with an occasional "Princess of the World" thrown in, perhaps when I'm asking for a favour. Thanks for the support at Aldfrith! Mike Christie (talk) 18:05, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
Peake
No problem, but if you look at articles created by myself and User:PKM in particular, you will see our subject matter makes us committed to good galleries, and overcoming the unjustified prejudices against them that many WP editors have. Johnbod (talk) 18:47, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
- Same here. I wasn't getting spirited myself (I think), but we knew that some people don't like galleries and went in predisposed to fight our ground. Actually, I don't agree with galleries for the big artists, because there's plenty of written material available to make the pictures sit well in the main text of the articles. But for minor artists like this, I regard the pictures (with their home gallery notes) as references for themselves.
- I daresay it seems odd to do an article on such a lowly painter when there are so many great masters whose articles are inadequate, but this one (like John de Critz, Paul van Somer I, William Scrots, John Chamberlain (letter writer) and several others) came about from my urge to fill in the red links on the FARs of James I of England, Elizabeth I of England, and the FA of Anne of Denmark I worked on, which is a sort of trickle-down approach to filling in the encyclopedia. Many thanks for your careful reading and interest. qp10qp (talk) 19:13, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes - I'm actually very pleased someone was putting the no-gallery position very fully and reasonably, especially as we seem to have got a clear pro-gallery concensus, including some eminent editors. That's not to say most article galleries aren't pretty poor for the reasons you say - poor, unexplained selection, and under-captioning. Personally I have used galleries in my "big artist" articles, like Raphael and Rembrandt. Johnbod (talk) 20:39, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

- You're very welcome, Karanacs, and the League of Copyeditors thanks you for your service to this country. They would come to personally pin your coat with a shiny badge of honor for lending your support, but they're too busy hunting down Osama Bin Laden and his maniacal half-brother Dr. No in the Temple of Doom. I would do it in their stead, but I've got a class at 3:00. (XD Lol). Thanks for your advice and support; the Pentagon has decided not to kill you and erase your family's memory.--Pericles of AthensTalk 19:41, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
- Also, you said that all the info of your previous long list of objections was moved to the talk page for Giovanni Villani, but I don't see it there. Did you move it someplace else?--Pericles of AthensTalk 19:48, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

- With a bit of humor, I have responded to your concerns once more on the FAC page after doing some major edits to the article.--Pericles of AthensTalk 22:08, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- GIANTS WON THE SUPERBOWL. You still here? You contacted me on my talk page and I have since responded to your concerns on the FAC page for Villani's article. Cheers.--Pericles of AthensTalk 03:15, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Preuss School FAC
Hey. You recently commented on the Preuss School FAC. It took me until today to respond, I had a pretty long week. At any rate, I have now done so and would like you to take a look. A few specific notes: For the numbers on late-buses I cited a reference from the school website as I had little other choice in the matter, however, looking at other school-FAs, I think it is reasonable to assume information like this from the school is reliable. As for Classic Cars for Classic Kids, I think the information may be somewhat detailed, but with references supporting it and to ensure avoidance of a stubby paragraph, I think it is fair weight. Now for the big complaint on the course requirements: I really can not find an online reference. I believe I still have a physical course guide, but do you think I should cite it? At any rate, thanks for helping out and sorry for clogging your talk page with this, but sans the FAC there is nothing else to be done. Warm regards, SorryGuy Talk 20:41, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
Tyrone Wheatley FAC
Glad to see you are following along because I added something to the article today that I want you to give me feedback on. What do you think about the highlights?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 22:02, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- The FAC was closed before I could get your response to my efforts. I would greatly appreciate it if you would comment on my progress on your interests so that I can prepare the article for renomination.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 18:41, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
FA-Team and first mission (MMM)
Dear Karanacs,
Many thanks for volunteering to join the FA-Team. We now have a first mission, to help the Murder, Madness and Mayhem WikiProject improve twelve articles towards featured article status. These articles are really interesting, and the person in charge of WP:MMM is enthusiastic about our support, so this mission should be a real pleasure. Please watchlist the mission page and the WikiProject page as well as some (or all) of the twelve articles. The students contributing to these articles are all new to Wikipedia, so please be ultra-friendly towards them.
The coordinator for this mission is Wrad (talk), who may suggest further ways in which you can help. I will provide back-up. In particular, it might be useful for you to indicate which of the twelve articles interest you most (or which ones you are watchlisting) on the mission page.
Thanks again for joining in. I think this will be a lot of fun for all of us, and hopefully we can make it fun for the students too and create a few more featured articles between now and April. Geometry guy 21:51, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Dispatch
Hey, good for doing up that second dispatch for the Signpost. As a week can pass quickly, I suppose we need some regular way of making sure somebody is writing something. Marskell (talk) 19:44, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
