Gaius Baltars Affiliation

Don't be such a humorless drone. We can keep the affiliation section in the arrticle but lets put his affiliation as himself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.166.115.120 (talk) 18:31, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

About renaming pages (the recent Impatience/Induction Death Note episode thing)

Actually, there is a Move button at the top of every page. This allows you to move one article to another name. So before the other article had been created, we could have moved the previous named article to the new name, but now we'll have to just get one of them deleted. In the future, please discuss on the talk page (in this case, the talk page of the List of Episodes page, since not everyone watches the individual episodes) and wait for input from other editors before making extreme moves like creating a new page when it might be possible to just rename the old one. Thanks! Nique talk

Justice episode

I think that writing a summary based on the manga is a bad idea. There are significant differences in plot detail between the anime and the manga from what I can tell. The major events are all the same, but look at how fast the last couple of episodes have been - they are skipping over a lot of dialogue. The events surrounding the Shinigami who came to get back his notebook were also very different (ep 29 I think). etc etc. --Darkbane 03:16, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

I must have misunderstood then. Sorry. The edit was extensive, but in the end, you weren't adding anything new were you. ^_^ --Darkbane 11:19, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

June 2008

Please remember to mark your edits as minor if (and only if) they genuinely are minor edits (see Help:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearranging of text without modifying content should be flagged as a 'minor edit.' Thank you. --EEMIV (talk) 15:52, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

The Matrix

I don't agree with your recent deletion of the section on The Matrix page and would be grateful if you would see my rationale at the talk page. "Shameless promotion" or not, Wikipedia invariably helps to promote new fim releases. The interests of promotion should not by themselves disqualify the subsection in question.Rachel0898 (talk) 17:57, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Minarchism

Please base your contributions on reliable, published sources. An pseudonymous blog doesn't count. http://www.strike-the-root.com/51/weebies/weebies7.html See WP:V.   Will Beback  talk  07:05, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Ayn Rand

Hey there--could I ask that you please stop feeding the IP troll, as it is only encouraging him and not accomplishing anything useful. Also please remember that Talk pages are not general discussion forums. Lastly, could I ask you to indent your responses per WP:INDENT? It will make them easier to keep track of. Thanks.

Dark City (1998 film) ‎

I've reverted your edits to the lead section of Dark City (1998 film) which substantially changed the factual accuracy of the history of the film, failing to note the stated difference between the mixed reviews it received during its initial release and the positive reviews it received much later. It appears you did not even read the subsequent paragraph. Please feel free to use the talk page to explain why your edit should be reinstated, and make sure to cite a reliable source in your defense. Thanks. Viriditas (talk) 01:48, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Recent changes at Libertarianism article

This article has had a contentious history (better now) and some of the material in here is the result of much discussion. I'm sure that you have some good ideas. And yes, the article does need a lot of work. But the approach of re-writing half of the article (including mass deletions) during one night and without prior discussion is too much by a mile. Please slow down and talk more. Sincerely, North8000 (talk) 10:26, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

you have good ideas. Take the most important change 1st, make a section in discussion 24 hr before your edit. some will challenge, others will support. my guess is most if not all of your edits will stand. apologies for the laborious process we have been reduced to using because of the edit warring here. Darkstar1st (talk) 08:01, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

Hey, you can help-me ? Gurabidon (talk) 03:29, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

what is the next edit you have in mind? maybe we could discuss a few ideas here. Darkstar1st (talk) 08:12, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

i take back my earlier advice about you going slow and discussing the edits first, you seem to have a firm grasp of guidelines and will not be reverted again by me. Darkstar1st (talk) 09:21, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

I still say go slow, and am butting heads with you on a few items, but I'm happy that you are there. :-) North8000 (talk) 12:44, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

paradox of toil advanced as case of fallacy of composition

Regarding this edit of yours [1], did you, um, like, actually check before characterizing that sentence as "BS" and deleting it? Results of Googling on both expressions: [2]. An author introducing the concept advances the paradox of toil as a case ("example") of the fallacy of composition. You may dispute that is such an example, but the article is about what people have said on the subject. Do I need to footnote every statement the author makes? Exactly what would satisfy you, here?
