Thanks for the edits on Marjane Satrapi and tahdiq. Hope you got something from the Wikipedia:Bootcamp and will come back often. -- CQ 07:08, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Chicken with plums

Your chicken with plums article was deleted because it was a recipe and Wikipedia is not a cookbook. However, a large number of recipes exist at the Cookbook section of Wikibooks. You are welcome to add any such articles there. --May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|) 11:40, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Orthodox text editors

I noticed you added SlickEdit to the Orthodox text editors category. What, precisely, is an Orthodox text editor? I've never heard of it before. Was it meant as a joke? — Frecklefoot | Talk 12:21, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

No it's not a joke, although it's kinda funny. Actually i had just created the category and started filling it up with a few members, one of which SlickEdit. But every time i create a category (and these have been very few, hence my difficulties), i read the help and do what it says, but that's not quite enough, so i now just edited it (the category page, not the SlickEdit article) and added a link that explains what this is about. --Jerome Potts 01:56, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Ditto XEDIT et al. If you're going to advance this unusual "Orthodox editor" idea, I suggest you start by creating the article, not the category. The category won't last long without an article to back it up. Good luck with it — it's an interesting perspective. RossPatterson 02:00, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

The description in the category is simply a link to a definition on the Internet. I'm sorry, but the idea of "Orthodox text editors" seems to be an idea presented by one person, Dr. Nikolai Bezroukov. Unless it is widely used and known (which it is not), it shouldn't be added as a category to the 'pedia. Unless you can find further adoption of the term, I suggest you delete the category. It looks like a neologism that hasn't caught on. I agree with RossPatterson, you should create an article before a category. — Frecklefoot | Talk 11:38, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
i recently discovered the term in The Hessling Editor, was intrigued by it, read on it, and thought it might be interesting to create the category (and see what happens: how it develops/gets populated). i tend to agree with that it appears to be one person's idea; but i "grew up" on Xedit (the VM/CMS one), and the concept "talks to me" (but i am not an expert on text editors). If you find the presence of the category offensive or disruptive or what else, you may want to perform the clean-up (but i thank you for having pointed it out here first). However, if you do, you may also want to clean up the THE article, as well as any other article which carries the expression, for consistency (to save the next enthusiast such as myself the trouble of making a faux-pas). You may next want to "hunt down" mentions of "orthodox file managers" (same source). Who knows, the contributor (User:Kievite) who added to The Hessling Editor (on October 8, 2005) may disagree with the removal and put it back, this time a bit more complete (but i doubt it, since no edits since October 9, 2005). --Jerome Potts 07:34, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Ne me quitte pas

Hi Jerome:

I saw your note at Talk:Ne me quitte pas. Thanks.

I rarely stick in citation needed tags. My theory is that if every unsourced statement in Wikiland was tagged, the storage capacity needed would increase by 10%.

Cheers, Wanderer57 03:57, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Haha. That's funny, i consider meself Mister frugal, but you beat me on this one. Thanks. --Jerome Potts 04:21, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Me again. Re your note at "ne me quitte pas" -- "Compiling an exhaustive list is a lot of work, and i now wonder whether worthwhile. It soon starts resembling "My Way", where everyone in the world has sung it. Perhaps we should keep it down to the major ones?

Does Mireille Mathieu count as one of the "major ones"? Wanderer57 22:40, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
I'd be inclined to think so, but for the fact that i can't remember that version (and i grew up in France during *that* time), so, somehow, it didn't stick (well, i used to dislike Mireille Mathieu, think of a kid who wants to hear rock & roll who's stuck having to listen to Barry Manilow, or similar (Julio Iglesias and consort)). So perhaps it wasn't a major one after all. I can only imagine Ms Mathieu singing it with much gusto, as it usually was her style; i mean i don't suppose she sang it just to make a buck, while being bored to death in the process. So, i dunno: you tell us?
Actually, this question of "the major ones" opens up a can of worms (which i then didn't mean to do). Maybe what i meant was to propose that folks add whatever version they want included, without feeling obligated to be exhaustive about it by searching the world over for versions which we've never heard. --Jerome Potts 01:14, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Folks should add a version they want included, without feeling obligated to be exhaustive about it by searching for versions which we've never heard. Sounds like a plan.
Barry Manilow? Jerome, go to your room!

[edit] Conservative Radio, Conservative TV

These two have stated that liberals such as Congressman Kucinich are mentally ill, as indicated by Michael Savage's book Liberalism Is a Mental Disorder. Check out the article, and the book. 65.163.112.104 09:19, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, riiight. Sounds/looks stupid. Thankfully, i'm no customer of theirs. --Jerome Potts 05:41, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Singh

Thank you Mr. Potts for correcting the Singh article. I learned something new, now I will know how to quote another wiki article in the future.

Reagards,

Thanks for your message. Please find my reply on my user talk. WarBaCoN (talk) 16:53, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cielito Lindo

Hey there, i spotted you as a contributor to the Cielito Lindo article, and was wondering whether you would be interested in helping out with the new Malagueña Salerosa one.
Thanks? --Jerome Potts (talk) 07:21, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for the message. I do not know the first thing about Spanish, believe me. (I wish that I did!) I just happen to love that song, Cielito Lindo ... and when I found out that there was a Wikipedia article on it, I just went in and cleaned it up a little bit. Sorry --- but I would / could be of no use on the new article that you mentioned. Thanks for asking. Please reply back to me at my Talk Page, if you want to reply. Thanks. (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 06:17, 19 February 2008 (UTC))
Hi, I'm Uri Meir, would like to add another translation to the Malaguna Salerosa page, and could add background material. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Urimeir (talkcontribs) 08:18, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
Hi back. I don't own the page, no one does. So by all means go for it, but within the rules, of course (WP:V, etc.). Actually, when you say "translation", i assume you mean of the lyrics? Someone after me included the original lyrics + an English translation, but Wikipedia is not a lyrics repository, and so i just now removed them. --Jerome Potts (talk) 22:57, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] LessTif

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LessTif#cite_note-0

I've thought someone has joked there. Which the heck seems at glance a joke, hungary programmers or hungry programmers? Well, I linked it so that nobody like me shouldn't be blocked by like you.--82.149.79.21 (talk) 18:47, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

OK, next time, ask in the discussion page, rather than directly editing the article. Or better yet, conduct a bit of research first, like google "lesstif" "hungry programmers". --Jerome Potts (talk) 19:01, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
ya, seems far better.--82.149.79.21 (talk) 19:09, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] RfD

I nominated one of your redirects for deletion, see Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2008 April 29#ੱ → Polyethylene terephthalate. -- Prince Kassad (talk) 21:05, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Beer Looter Dude

A tag has been placed on Beer Looter Dude requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Ziggy Sawdust 18:26, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
