[edit] Welcome!

Hello CFLeon, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

[edit] Dinosaur articles

Hi CFLeon, I was working on Monoclonius today, and noticed it was in a lot better shape than when I had last left it a few days ago. Checking the edit history, I noticed your edits, which are quite welcome and of obvious high quality. Your edit history also shows a pattern of editing many dinosaur aticles. With that in mind, I thought I'd invite you to join Wikipedia:WikiProject_Dinosaurs, a project that develops the Wikipedia articles on dinosaurs. You're not on our modest list of members, but would be, I can see from your edits, a welcome addition. I hope you'll consider it, because you would be a big boon to our group. Take care, --Firsfron 01:57, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

Saw your name added to the list of members. Welcome. :) --Firsfron of Ronchester 04:06, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

- cool editing, amazing how the articles meld and grow really. I'm new to this too

[edit] Aku-Aku

FYI: Aku-Aku is by Thor Heyerdahl; you mistakenly added it to Ivan T. Sanderson. - DavidWBrooks 23:25, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the correction. My mistake. I misread my note about The Dynasty of Abu. [I usually do not have access to my print sources when I'm online.] CFLeon 23:33, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Beatles (Cartoon Series)

Thanks for the suggestion. I had a quick look at Google and found some interesting stuff. As we at Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles are always keen to get new input, could I ask if you would like to write the article? Please make your answer known at Talk:The Beatles. We also have a project, if you are inclined to become a member.LessHeard vanU 12:04, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] crocodilian.com

If you want to add alink to this generic crocodilians site, either do it on crocodylus or crocodylidae, or link to a page in the site that specifically discuss the Cuban Crocodile. Otehrwise, it is considered link spam. Circeus 01:15, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

You obviously have never been to the site, then. There are pages for each particular species. It is THE website for ANYTHING to do with Crocodilia. A bit poor on the evolution of the group, perhaps, but I challenge you to find any site that's better. CFLeon 01:25, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

I am not complaining about the site itself. I am merely observing that the page you link to has nothing to do specifically with the species you link from. Searching the site for an appropriate page to link to is not my duty, it's yours to do before linking. Circeus 02:09, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Have you even so much as read my comments above and Samir's under? Circeus 02:35, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Have the courtesy to answer my question, I asked first. WHAT DO YOU HAVE AGAINST THE SITE? Maybe they don't pay you scratch? CFLeon 02:59, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cuban Crocodile

Hey CFLeon, a couple of things,

I changed the crocodilian.com link to the Cuban Crocodile subpage.[1]
Probably not necessary to use a test template on User:Circeus's page; he's an administrator and a reasonable guy and it would be easy just to talk to sort things out.

Thanks and hope that the above meets with your approval -- Samir धर्म 01:39, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Please let me be more frank. Do not place warning templates on Circeus's page for removing spam. It is not the correct use for them. Instead, discuss the issue on talk pages. Thank you -- Samir धर्म 02:43, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

"a reasonable guy"? then why does he keep on showing bias against the link, to the point of following me and reverting the edits? Sounds more like either a personal bias or a conflict of financial interests to me. "Reasonable people" don't keep on reverting edits without the courtesy of reply.

To you, Samir: thanks for the direct link, but a couple of points:

I find all the time links on Wiki pages to the home page of a site. Thought it was the way Wiki did things, and I agree with this. I personally prefer to be directed to the home page of a site unless it's some general thing like Straight Dope. or Wiki itself. I have the homepage bookmarked, and I give the average reader enough credit to find things on their own once they find the site, especially when there's a Table of Contents. (You want "linkspam"? Try some of the entries which list every page on a site, even when there's several on the same site.)
The guy has just been rude to me personally. That's NOT "reasonable", and I respond in type.
Oh, and when did he ever talk about the deletions on a Talk page?
I'll keep on reverting his edits until Doomsday until he shows me some courtesy. CFLeon 02:59, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] James Madison DeWolf

James Madison DeWolf has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this person might not be notable enough for an article. Please review Wikipedia:Notability (people) for the relevant guidelines. If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" template, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod template, the article will not be deleted, but if an editor is still not satisfied that it meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. NickelShoe (Talk) 18:42, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

I think there's enough general interest in Custer's battalion to warrant the inclusion of bios of the officers and staff. Many are significant enough to be included in the popular Find-a-Grave website, including DeWolf. Scott Mingus 19:30, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Plate arrangement now on Stegosaurus

I stuck it on. Now to find some pix..Cas Liber 09:56, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Explain your accusation

I think you had better explain yourself on Talk:Malware, where it appears, judging from your edit summary, that you were alleging that I had an "economic conflict of interest". Please keep WP:NPA and WP:NLT in mind in your explanation. --FOo 07:02, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Luna 9

I saw your change about Luna 9 soft landing on the Soviet space program page. Both Luna 9 and List of space exploration milestones, 1957-1969 both say that Luna 9 soft-landed, so do you want to correct it on those pages (and explain the difference)? Thack you. Bubba73 (talk), 17:47, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stegosaurus

Hi CFLeon!

I'm planning to send Stegosaurus to Featured Article candidacy. The article failed its first nomination, but user:Casliber and I have been hard at work fixing stuff. As you're listed as a member of Wikipedia: WikiProject Dinosaurs, I figured I'd drop you a line and see if there was anything you thought should be added/removed/cited on the article before it is sent to FAC. We definitely want it to pass! :)

(Feel free to make any edits on the article itself, comment on the talk page, or leave a note on my talk page). Thanks for your time, Firsfron of Ronchester 19:26, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Amphibians and Reptiles Portal (P:AAR)

edit

The Amphibians and Reptiles Portal

I'm glad to announce that The Amphibians and Reptiles Portal (P:AAR) has been created and is ready for you to use. This portal covers any subjects related to amphibians, reptiles, herpetology, as well as WikiProject Amphibians and Reptiles.

Purposes of the portal

to act as the "main page" for editors interested in amphibians and reptiles. The portal page should contain all the common and useful links to relevant articles, lists, categories, as well as the project tasklist. As this portal is your tool, please feel free to organize, modify, or expand the Topics, Categories, Lists, and Tasklist sections of the portal as you see fit.
to recognize works of AAR editors via the "Selected Article of the Month" and "Selected Picture of the Month." You can participate in this process by nominating and voting for articles and pictures that you think deserve to be presented for each month. Selected articles and pictures receive a recognition messagebox on talk pages.
to lead potential AAR editors to WikiProject Amphibians and Reptiles as well as to educate general readers. Feel free to add more items for the "Did you know..." section.

Thank you for reading. If you have any questions, please leave them on the portal talk page or my user talk page. --Melanochromis

[edit] Dragon Tails

I understand your distress. First of all, I played only a small part in this matter- Publicola was the one who made the redirect and TexasAndroid was responsible for the protection of the article, I just closed the debate. However, I have dealt with this sort of thing plenty of times before, so there is no problem contacting me about it. The last version of the article on the webcomic before the reversion to a redirect can be seen here- it wasn't actually deleted. That said, it did not assert notability as is required per the appropriate guidelines, and so it was lucky to come to AfD at all- normally, it would just be speedy deleted under criteria A7. If you show me sources proving that the webcomic meets the notability guidelines for web content, I will talk to TexasAndroid for you, and arrange to have an article about the web comic placed at that title. However, until that time, any such article would be deleted/reverted on sight by any administrator. J Milburn 19:55, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] School Rumble ep 27

I'm curious about this. How'd you get a copy of it? I haven't seen it or heard mention of it from any of my usual anime sources. Feel free to email me if you think we need to discuss this off Wiki. BrokenSphere^{Msg me} 06:31, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

It may be a promo episode for 2nd Term. The source I got all my SR eps from doesn't have it and I can't find it online. If you, could you let me know? --BrokenSphere^{Msg me} 05:36, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hōei eruption of Mt. Fuji

You made a minor edit to Mount Fuji; but, as far as I know, your data is incorrect. If I'm the one who is misinformed, so much the better. This is how Wikipedia evolves. If your reference source is persuasive, I'll not only restore your edit -- I'll also modify Hōei eruption of Mount Fuji accordingly.

If volcanic eruptions are of interest to you, perhaps you'll want to scan the following:

FYI -- this is my first edit of 2008. Happy new year. --Ooperhoofd (talk) 17:14, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Whoops. I've discovered that the Hōei eruption of Mt. Fuji began on December 16, 1707 and ended on January 1, 1708 -- ergo, your edit was correct. You were quite right to catch this relatively trivial mistake; and my hat's off to you. Maybe I can apologize for my mistaken revert by sharing a link to a Shizuoka University web page which confirms that your edit was correct. As it happens, my 19th century French translation of a 17th century Japanese reference source was correct as well; but -- critically -- I misinterpreted the full meaning of a terse French sentence because I neglected to take into account its broader, extra-textual context....Click link for dates of Hōei eruption of Mt.
