Flash Remembrance

Antoine Howard, one of the greatest players streetball has ever seen. He showed that streetball goes way beyond just AND1, but into the city. May he forever be remembered all over the world as one of the greatest players of all time, and one of the fastest, and trickiest too. This is for you Flash.

Paul Hunter Remembrance

Paul Hunter played snooker with a smile on his face, was an ultimate gentleman, and could have gone on as far as he would have liked. Our thoughts at this time go to his wife and children, and we all hope they get through this difficult period. This is for Paul. Millm0w 07:54, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I know. It is shocking. He always seemed to me whenever I watched him like he had the world at his fingertips and everything going for him. He always seemed in control. I saw a world champion in him. Such a shame. Such a great guy. Its amazing how it can all change in a year. Comiserations to his family. Ernst Stavro Blofeld 19:25, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Stay cool" :-)

From Talk:Snooker:

That's hardly 'very lucrative'. Skinnyweed 08:48, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm fed up with Skinnyweed, first you risrespect Paul Hunter, and now you show your obvious middle-classness with a stupid comment like that. I'm allfor free speech and all, but you're are full of it. Millm0w 10:48, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Please see WP:ATTACK, WP:CIVIL, WP:EQ, WP:COOL, and WP:FAITH, and don't respond to trolling if you can help it (see WP:TROLL); it just encourages them. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 15:59, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Am I still the winner?

I thought I'd recieve some notification in the mail or something, but alas, nothing has arrived. Please reply soon.Communist47 18:52, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RE: the personal attack king

Errr...huh? I was the one who removed abuse that was added to your userpage by Communist47. However, with regards to your edit history, and this last comment at me;

This is your last warning. If you continue to make personal attacks, you will be blocked for disruption. ShakingSpirit ^talk 11:39, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well hi to you, Andrew

HI I REALLY LIKE YOUR WORK ON WIKPIEDIA I HOPE YOU ARE LEIKE HAVING A GOOD TIME KTHXBYECYAL8T3R

Please use the edit summary feature; helps distinguish good edits from vandalism

I have noticed that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks! — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 20:01, 19 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Can a source by your own knowldge?

Hi Millm0w, you posted this question on Wikipedia talk:Citing sources and the answer is an affirmative no. Please see WP:CITE#Why sources should be cited. In a nutshell, if you don't cite a source, people won't believe you! However, your article Antoine Howard shouldn't be too difficult to reference; if there's a book, newspaper article, or reliable web site out there about him, you can use that to cite your article. Feel free to contact me on my talk page if you want to know how to do that. Best, Fbv65e del / ☑t / ☛c || 05:32, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Nice!

I'm glad to hear that :-) Regards, Jogers (talk) 19:34, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I hope you don't mind

I fixed up a lot of your New York State of Mind stub. There were a lot of spelling issues and not a lot of structure. --UnFan 20:02, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I just saw the edit history of your Antoine Howard page. Its tragic.

But it gave me an idea, that might amuse you: let's create a page for edit wars; it would be kind of a history of an important aspect of Wikipedia both for future reference and now. We could detail your war as an example to start, and once its nicely established invite others we've scouted out as having interesting or tragic stories. All the references would be within Wikipedia, quotes from discussion pages, edit logs, etc. And daughter pages, such as The Antoine Howard edit war page where more specificity could be applied could be added. As a student of information maybe you're interested but maybe don't broadcast the idea till its established. Anyway I'd be interested in going for it; and it might also be an opportunity to keep something of the memory of Flash going. Erase this message and write me at my user page if you're up for it, my man. Run any ball lately?Klasovsky 17:47, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
