Welcome...

Hello Will2k and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

Good luck!



Gotten

RE: edit comment on http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Internet_Explorer&diff=0&oldid=4727132. Well... it is a word, it's just frequently misused: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~jlawler/aue/gotten.html. Best, DropDeadGorgias (talk) 14:38, Jul 19, 2004 (UTC)

I stand corrected. Still, "gotten" was not the appropriate term. Thanks for the great link --Will2k 19:11, Jul 20, 2004 (UTC)

Stylesheet

Wow! Nice stylesheet. Would you mind me using it? Oven Fresh 21:59, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)


VFD

Hey there, I noticed you added a {{vfd}} tag to Discothèque U2 (now moved to Discothèque (song)). Unfortunately, to VFD something takes a little more than that. Firstly, the preferred tag is {{subst:vfd}} so that there isn't excessive traffic on the template's part. And secondly, you have to edit the specific VFD page of the article you VFD, adding reasoning for why it should be deleted. Lastly, the current date's page on VFD should be edited to add your VFD to the list. Thanks! - Vague | Rant 13:33, Jan 25, 2005 (UTC)

Be careful with the Save-button! Took me some time to clean after the mess you made in this edit: [1]. jni 05:32, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Blame it on Wikipedia servers. I tried to submit that update a few times before it finally went through. I must have made a mistake trying to merge edits thanks to the delay. Little confused though. Was there anything that got lost between the edits?--Will2k 16:42, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)


Saving Private Ryan

That's fine. Good film. --Matt von Furrie 11:47, 21 May 2005 (UTC)Reply


Talk page vandalism

Reverting my spelling edit

Thanks for educating me in the correct use of "English". I thought wikipedia was a decent place but now I know it's mostly edited by Neo-Nazi Yanks determined to show the world who is boss. Knowledge is power I suppose (as long as it's American knowledge)

Funny to read since I'm not a Neo-Nazi, not an American, and certainly don't believe I or America is boss. If this is reference to Scepticism vs. Skepticism on Nostradamus, of course both are correct, but Sk... is used more often than Sc... in any English country. If Sc... is more correct, it should be discussed on the talk page first. Thanks for the laugh.--Will2k 18:20, Jun 14, 2005 (UTC)

Hello!

I am hoping that you could weigh in on an issue at the Talk:London, Ontario page regarding Bill Brady. An anon user keeps removing a simple bullet from the notable Londoners section concerning this notable Londoner, and I am trying to gather a concensus there to have him included. There has been substantial comment there already, but I am hoping that a few more people would offer an opinion. Thanks for your consideration in this matter.

Sure. I can weigh in.--Will2k 19:04, August 19, 2005 (UTC)

Explain to me how it's fair for HS to seek out and lobby others to support his point and build a "consensus" yet it is not legitimate for me to do so. Consensusbuilder--Consensusbuilder 06:07, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

You certainly could have. I looked at the facts and gave my opinon. I resent the implication that I've been "brainwashed" through some lobbying by HS. Read the above note again. He asked for an opinion since I am heavily involved in the article and know London well. I have given my personal opinion and consider the matter resolved. Please drop the matter and dedicate your time to bringing the article to FAC status instead. On a personal note, this whole issue enrages me greatly as I was the one who made the initial drive to make it a featured article and thanks to your unappreciated meddling and ill timing, I cannot see my goal accomplished. Could we at least get London FA and revisit the issue?--Will2k 03:48, August 23, 2005 (UTC)
