Black and Red Angus

[edit]

Thanks for looking at those articles and removing that merge! I would have done it myself, but i did want more opinions, and considering that you too own/work on a stud farm, I agree with you when you say that 3 people in the business is more than enough! Oh and thanks for saying that you'd clean up the black angus page! CattleGirl 07:32, 17 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I like the idea of consensus, but I worry sometimes that wikipedia is turning in to one big bureaucracy. It seems like the "elders" all want to have a big thorough discussion before any articles get changed. If all we do is talk about it nothing will ever get done! I'd much rather fix an article so somebody else can work on it more or even expand on it. I try to check the talk pages to make sure it's not an issue, but otherwise I'm going to shoot first and ask questions later.Dukemeiser 04:00, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Conservative

[edit]

Just thought I'd mention that some of your link repairs on conservative/conservatism should be Conservative Party (UK). Ian3055 20:14, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Probably true. I was using the links on the disambiguation page for replacement which doesn't list the UK Party. Maybe it should?Dukemeiser 23:02, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that Peter T. King thing. My mistake, I'll be sure to watch out for things like that. Fifty7 18:03, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Disambiguation Talk Request

[edit]

This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 21:49, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

United States

[edit]

You didn't happen to come to the United States recently on a cattle tour did you? Dukemeiser 01:49, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't, but I think one of my friends might have, she won a prize which involved cattle tours... CattleGirl talk | e@ | review me! 03:06, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Our farm recently hosted a group of Angus cattlemen and women from Australia (sponsored by Genex) and I would be interested to know if you knew anyone that went. Recognize anyone? You can email me at tony 'at' hooverangus 'dot' com if you know anyone. That would be really neat! Thanks- Dukemeiser 03:22, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I do, and I replied to your e-mail address. CattleGirl talk | e@ | review me! 06:46, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification?

[edit]

Hi! I've been editing the cattle article, but I was wondering if I could have some clarification over something... Heifer. Is a heifer a cow after she has had her first or second calf? I've asked some people I know and everyone says something different, and on the talk page of cattle I posted a message for clarification, but that's the one I'm not sure of... so yeah if you could put in what you know that would be great. Thanks- CattleGirl talk | e@ | review me! 08:13, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Romanticism, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Victorian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

[edit]

I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day (see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 02:21, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

[edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
