Greetings Arkansascajun, Per Wikipedia guidelines concerning external links, you should not link to a site that you maintain. Since you maintain the Yahoo group, you should not add it yourself. In addition, guidelines state that links to sites that require sign-in are to be avoided. Your site should not be linked to since it is not even viewable to non-members. I hope this clears things up for you.

I think you should also note that I saw a school bus conversion at Burning Man in 1995 that had a license plate that read "SKOOLIE", presumably because "SCHOOLIE" is 8 letters and wouldn't fit. So your claim that you were the first person to use the term on a yahoo group that was only formed in 2001 is impossible. 65.127.231.6 06:52, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

i have to challenge what you think you saw. you saw a license that said SCOOLIE not SKOOLIE.it was common for skoolie owners to block out the S and the H in SCHOOLBUS over the widshield to make it a COOLBUS i also challenge you to find any ealier use of the term skoolie on the internet than on our group. i will make our group openly viewable and have someone else place the link.

School buses have been plentiful at Burning Man for years, hundreds of them; Do you really think that you were the first person on the whole planet to spell it with a K, just because you can't find a reference to it on the Internet prior to your group in 2001? I have no problem with you claiming you have the largest skoolie Yahoo group, but you certainly were not the first person to use the term "Skoolie." 65.127.231.6 09:19, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Forget it, it isn't worth the trouble. Add whatever you want to the article. 65.127.231.6 09:27, 15 September 2006 (UTC) thanks i appreciate your benevolence. but just for the record. the commonly used term for schoolbus conversions used prior to our use was SCOOLIE. i coined SKOOLIE because when i googled SCOOLIE i got a bunch of porn sites about school girls with no panties on. in deference to you i removed that claim from our link.however i would really like you to find some earlier reference using SKOOLIE as the descriptor for a converted school bus. i would be the first to dessiminate that info. after all SOMEONE was the first person on the planet to use it. no?[reply]

want proof dipshit ? note the date. now show your proof you saw it in 1995 ..... https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Skoolie/info

you seem to be confused about one site in particular. www.skoolie.net is a site i have been part of for years, and there is no-one making a profit there. There are zero advertisements or banners. You could make an argument that messages posted in the classified/wish list section are technically advertisements, however all content is posted in regards to individuals selling their own conversion projects. It costs no money to join skoolie.net. People have offered to donate money to steve, the administrator/creator of the site, and he refuses to accept any contributions. this is not entirely true. the owners of skoolie.net sell webmaster services on thier site useing skoolie.net as a skills reference.

it's no surprise that you are a long time member of skoolie.net. it's rather obvious that you are just trying to suppress schoolbusconversionuts. i would also say that the members of schoolbusconversionuts raised enough money to buy arkie a new computer when his was damaged by lightening. he also refused to accept any donations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.120.129.49 (talk) 14:55, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

GEE heres an update you seem to have convieniently forgotten to post. the owners of skoolie.net are now soliciting donations to keep the webpage up.
