Not to be rude, but why did you remove my welcome? I don't really care, but some editors don't care for it when people blank their talk page. Just curious. Thanks. --LV ^{(Dark Mark)} 02:18, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I removed it because it was a form letter. Quatloo 02:21, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, sorry. I'll try and do better. --LV ^{(Dark Mark)} 02:30, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there, Quatloo. I have no idea what your name means, but I had noticed this edit of yours. I had seen no one had officially welcomed you, so I thought I'd do the honors. It's not a common letter to have a user name start with, "Q". I see you're interested in Perl. Did you know that the dude who developed Perl had cornea surgery? I learned that a few years ago. He used to have the pictures from his surgery on his website, but like I said, it was years ago and may have changed it since then. I really hope you enjoy your time here. I see you are also interested in peak oil. That's a touchy subject for some, so I would suggest peeking at WP:NPOV if you haven't already. Rockford Files, eh? That's a little before my time, but I sure do like James Garner. I saw you signed up right before Christmas, so if you celebrate, I hope WP turns out to be a great gift for you. If you don't celebrate, I hope WP turns out to be a great gift for you. Yep, either way, Wikipedia can be a wonderful thing. Well, this wasn't a form letter, but it was rather long. Sorry for that. See you around, my friend. --LV ^{(Dark Mark)} 02:30, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also, when you try to talk to someone, you should post on their talk page, not their user page. When you post to the talk page, you get a little orange banner saying you have a message. You don't get that when you post to the main user page. Just a little word of advice. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. That's how we learn. Cheers. --LV ^{(Dark Mark)} 02:33, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed your work on some American colleges and universities. If you see a copyright violation, you should simply type {{copyvio|WEBSITE IT'S PLAGERISED FROM}}, and it will automatically put a copyright warning on the page. this is better than simply blanking the article, because it allows Admins to go through and delete plagerised or libelous material from the history. Thanks. Keep up the good work. --LV ^{(Dark Mark)} 02:39, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Admit you are a rabbit. Jerkcity

The result of the AfD was to delete and merge, but the result has been not much more than a delete. Surely something can be done to keep all sides happy? Gretnagod 01:02, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your swift response but we go back to the original problem that Death List is not a Dead Pool as member do not make selections, they just keep the committee updated on the latest health of the chosen 50. But the whole problem is bigger than me or you can deal with, so thanks for your help and I'll see what I can do elsewhere. Gretnagod 01:12, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

True comment! But the definition of Dead Pool is a bit too unspecific for my tastes. I presume if the Death List was to get a lot more recognition in the main stream media its credentials as an entry would be reconsidered? Gretnagod 01:16, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't want to drag this out, and I agree with most of what you said, but a lot of entries are completely inane - look at the Simpsons-related Can't sleep, clown will eat me. That's a pure waste of space and that's still there. I might as well sit down and catalogue every phrase made in cartoon, nay broadcasting, history and add them as entries.
