Welcome to my talk page.

I am glad to hear from you. Working with Wikipedians is an exciting opportunity to learn, engage, and grow in wisdom and truth. I welcome your questions, ideas and concerns. Please note:

  • I seldom copy threads between talk pages, but sometimes watch others' talk pages, in case it bothers you.
  • I move discusions quickly to my archives.
  • I welcome private e-mails.
  • I sometimes talk using my normal voice, and sometimes in a high, silly voice.


This page has three ironclad rules:

File:Executive-ape.jpg
Rule One: No anonymous messages. Leave a user signature, a nickname (if.not.logged.in), or nothing at all.
Rule Two: Be civil. WP's many freedoms do not include personal attacks.
Rule Three: Don't make trouble. It wastes everyone's time and leads to a bad end.


Those are the rules. Please follow them.

The Wiki brah saga

Paul, I can't thank you enough for weighing in on this. Yours was one of the most insightful letters I've ever seen on my talk page. There really is a certain level of mediocrity disguised as fairness, that is to say, every shred of information is sacred to some. I have always been bold in how I edit...and I've been dragged across the coals more times than I care to count. Now we have this gentleman, and I have to tell you, I can't deal with him alone anymore. I felt bad a couple of months back during a situation with a similar user. Drove me nuts until he admitted his condition and I promised myself to tread lightly should a similar user arise. This poor "Wiki brah" wretch is screaming for attention, but he's doing it in the worst possible way. If he's a cocaine-snorting, butt-banging playboy, I'm a hard-boiled egg. One way or another, this has to stop both now and in the future and it'll take users with real cojones to make it happen. Thanks again for your support and for your kind words. - Lucky 6.9 16:20, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

GOOD stuff on WB's page, by the way. Almost forgot to thank you for telling it like it is. I'd appreciate your weighing in further over on the RfC. If you can make your case even half as eloquently as you did on that talk page, this'll get the attention of every arbitrator on the site. - Lucky 6.9 16:30, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Tree sitter extractor

Liquefaction of the tree sitter extractor article appears incomplete. Did you forget to complete the VfD process? Thanks -- Kjkolb 11:04, September 5, 2005 (UTC)

No more copters...?

Somehow, I get the feeling that you aren't too crushed about that article going away, Paul.  :) Here's another slightly, um, distinctive user that is way overdue for an RfC in my opinion: User:Ddespie@san.rr.com. My work account is on Road Runner, so I'm familiar with the suffix...he's supposedly in San Diego...but the account is invalid, the guy makes strange, half-true or patently untrue articles about "kiddie" subjects and has never responded to a single user. Wanna take a peek and see if this individual is worth an RfC? Thanks. - Lucky 6.9 03:37, 6 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Wish I knew where that utility was. Last time something like this happened, I damn near quit the site for good. We determined that User:B-Movie Bandit was a bot because of the shifting proxies, consistent editing style and total lack of response. This guy, OTOH, is no bot. - Lucky 6.9 03:57, 6 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Paul, you rock. I looked at the contribs but not at the namespaces. Off I go... - Lucky 6.9 04:06, 6 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, and he's edited within the last few minutes. I'm giving him one more chance to respond. Each and every one of his edits except one have been to the main space. Some OK, some not so OK. Just too weird. - Lucky 6.9 04:12, 6 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Re: How do you make sandwiches without bread?

Are you joking around? Because I'm not too sure what you mean by that (I didn't make that article in the first place, I just tagged it for speedy). Jaxl | talk 01:45, 7 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Heh...Ask Smart Guy if he knows...he made it, after all. (I knew that tagging mistake would come back to bite me, but I didn't know it would come so soon...) Jaxl | talk 01:51, 7 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
And, just fyi, coeliacs (who can't eat wheat products) will often use lettuce in place of bread, often in a wrap-style. So it isn't impossible. -Tim Rhymeless (Er...let's shimmy) 00:02, 8 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Nycbuginvasion.jpg

Hi, I see you uploaded Image:Nycbuginvasion.jpg. Please go back and add copyright tags for the image so that it doesn't get deleted. Thanks. -GregAsche (talk) 02:33, September 8, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your prompt response Paul, I have added the GFDL tag to the image, and for future reference when uploading images, a list of copyright tags is available at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. -GregAsche (talk) 02:56, September 8, 2005 (UTC)

RE:RE:Ifd

Images have an unknown source..::Imdaking::. Tlk | E-M 02:47:04, 2005-09-08 (UTC)

RE:Help

I suppose I could at the moment..::Imdaking::. Tlk | E-M 02:52:43, 2005-09-08 (UTC)

What do you have so far?.::Imdaking::. Tlk | E-M 02:55:46, 2005-09-08 (UTC)
So, you must not see anything... The Images you uploaded have no source info.(where you got it from). All you have is a dicription of the page.

Hmm...interesting messages immediately above.  :) I'll have to take a look-see at the regs regarding images. I've never really become involved with them so I don't know how much of a help I can be. - Lucky 6.9 03:14, 8 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
