Reverting correct changes
Please don't revert changes where it is obvious that they are correct (not the Dan Marino change, but the Vince Young change) to Wonderlic Test. SushiGeek 07:53, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Re:Zico
Thanks for the info on the "Japan Soccer League" name, I didn't know about it. But I have no idea why you have mentioned the "fully professional" thing. I'm aware of all that stuff, so what's your point? —Lesfer (talk/@) 21:07, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
No War
Yup Albatross2147 17:34, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
- Just for the record I didn't make the "contraversial" change either. Albatross2147 00:14, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

- Done! Ytny 02:24, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- OK, I stopped the Fabio Grosso heckler. Anyway, it looks from his contribs that he is from Sydney, Australia, and apart from the maybe 5-10% of Australians who are of Italian descent, everybody here including myself is very livid with the decision.Blnguyen | rant-line 07:13, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
Oh's nationality
No problem, I have ever thougt he was japanese because he born in Tokyo. Thanks. --Abrego 05:28, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Reply:Horacio Elizondo
I am sorry. I was editing and my browser crashed after I pressed submit. Oh well. The Fox Man of Fire 17:09, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
Is his religion that important? Please have a look.Blnguyen | rant-line 04:38, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, I'd realised that, but I'm wondering what you thought about it as you have edited many football bios?Blnguyen | rant-line 04:43, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
Horacio Elizondo
On the Horacio Elizondo article can you vote at the bottom to see whether we should keep Rooney's view on his decision in the article as I'm trying reach a consensus as soon as possible. Thanks. Englishrose 10:31, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi! Thanks for contributing to the 2006 FIFA World Cup controversies, your changes are most appreciated. Feel free to continue the drive to make this article neutral. I honestly believe that this article can become featured standard, so if you wish, please aid in these ambitions. Regards, MyNameIsNotBob 00:51, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for your thank you! It's a tricky article by its nature. Well done for all your good work too. --Guinnog 01:28, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
Patent nonsense/speedy deletions
The page Wikipedia:Patent nonsense explains what patent nonsense is and also gives some examples of what isn't patent nonsense. In the case of Simon Overall, the article was a hoax, but hoaxes aren't considered patent nonsense, nor are they speedy-deletable (see Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Non-criteria). I think the easiest way to take care of something like Simon Overall would be to use proposed deletion ("prod"). Ardric47 02:27, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

The Working Man's Barnstar | |
| Your tireless work on improving the 2006 FIFA World Cup controversies article is more than worthy of this barnstar - the level head you have shown in dealing with an issue which could have easily got out-of-hand was a lesson for us all. Well done! --Killfest2 07:17, 7 July 2006 (UTC) |
- And to think I was just coming to congratulate you on the same thing, as well as your efforts on Graham Poll and other Football related articles. Keep it up! Ansell 11:59, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Elizondo suggested text
Hey, if you have a chance I'd love if you could head over to Talk:Horacio Elizondo and take a look at the suggested text. Thanks! Vickser 18:17, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

90% of male celebrities on wikipedia with our external links, have excerpts and summaries of our original bio. Starting from model Steven Strait to Filipino actors Troy Montero, Richard Gurtierrez, etc. In particular information from our exclusive in-person interviews and profile with most of the male celebrities our link you removed. Since you removed our link, we might as well remove the information taken from our website. We are not asking to remove the information taken from our website in violation of the user's agreement, all we are asking is for a proper hyperlinked credit to mostbeautifulman.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiako (talk • contribs)
Images from players' articles
Why did you removed images from JNT players articles? This is fair use, source added, so where did you see "copyvio"? This type of images are using on very many football articles.--Repli cant 21:06, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- ОК, but even if they are all copyvios as you say, they are in use on many Wikipedia pages and nobody had objection, so why you decided to delete images just from JNT pages? If these images are in use on many other pages, that's acceptably de facto, don't you think so? --Repli cant 16:35, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

My Uploads
I saw several other images with the same format as the ones I uploaded with the same license, so I figured, hey, it must be the license for these images. Sorry if I caused any trouble. --*kate speak 14:43, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
Image Copyrights for KingPenguin
Several of my older contributions do need the sources added to them, which I unfortunately will not be able to do due to a vacation I will be on for two weeks. I will point out that at least the portraits did not come from news or club sites but rather a third site, which I believe is digilander.it . My images will probably mostly be deleted and I may be unable to edit by the time I get back, but please have some mercy for I will not be able to access the internet for two weeks or more. KingPenguin 13:46, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
What exactly was your objection to the fair use rationale I put on the image? How is this not the organisation using the photo for promotional purposes, it is a benefits of membership page, ie, direct recruitment. Ansell 04:59, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi
The actual newspaper "the Guardian" as sold in newspaper form is completely different to a discussion on the internet, which this is. It is like the ABC TV in the United States putting up some topic for discussion on the internet which they do. It is quite another matter for the ABC to mention this on their main News Bulletin. These internet discussions are pretty informal. It is a way for people to let their guard down a bit, and have a bit of fun.
The language I used for "mind games" is a bit strong, I must admit. The Guardian itself is a reasonably serious newspaper. Reuters is a news service, which often sources its news from other newspapers, even the Guardian. It can make mistakes like anyone else. I also don't think there is anything special about the British mainstream press. It is no better/worse than other nations. The British tabloids - now that's another story...

Cutting articles in half - that is an artifact of browser Tabs, I am told. One misses it when correcting some vandal....Thanks ;0)Pliny 15:33, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi
Thanks for your note on my page. It appears you have done some more research about the British press. Wallie 20:27, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
Sorry!
I apologized for my wrong actions (CR pages). - Kursc
Hey -- I closed this. I just wanted to point out though, that you could have just done the move yourself without bothing with a debate, since 15th century in North American history doesn't already exist. If it did, though, a debate is appropriate, but more appropriate on Wikipedia:Requested moves than WP:AFD since you aren't seeking deletion, just renaming. Mangojuicetalk 16:55, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
