Another Washington Metro fanatic? *grin* Well, I left this comment on the Talk for List of Washington Metro stations but wanted to put it here too. What ideas do you have for a standard format for Metro station listings? BTW, nice touch mentioning the lights. I always liked being able to see the next train before it left Gallery Place. :) --Golbez 03:01, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

I just made a large addition to the Wikipedia:Wikiproject Station page, maybe you'd like to check it out and give comment? --Golbez 05:26, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Regarding your changes to The Book of Mozilla - do you have any reference that it was specifically meant as a parody of the Book of Revelations? I could not find any such reference. --moeffju 09:41, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

I'm not sure whether the revelations reference should be kept if there is no real reason for it. It might just as well be a parody of any other prophecy etc. --Moeffju 03:59, 23 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Well, 1) it was not so pretty clear to me and 2) there are prophecies outside the bible too. How about just saying it's a parody of a prophetic text, without naming one? --Moeffju 00:39, 25 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Convinced. Feel free to delete discussion here. --Moeffju 01:11, 25 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Hello Meelar. See my response to your comment on my User Page. I'm not inclined to move it, but if someone else wants to, I wouldn't mind, but I would post my rationale in the Talk. Regards, Cecropia 04:49, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Furore furor

Furore is the commonly used British spelling, although the OED also lists furor. Average Earthman 10:14, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Adminship

Thanks for your support and your vote... and after all, what's really in a name? --Hcheney 22:59, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)


I just made some (hopefully final) changes to the idea for station naming format; could you look at Wikipedia:Naming convention (stations) and share any ideas or problems? Then we can try to think of something for rail lines. PS - Just a personal note, but do you think this is all within Wikipedia's scope? Not that I'm gonna stop ;) just wanted your opinion. Thanks! --Golbez 01:11, 23 Mar 2004 (UTC)


Thank you from Conradrock

Thanks for the nice note - the only problem I'm having right now is my usual problem - not going to bed when I need to.

Thanks though, I look forward to helping out a much as I can.

Indefinite ban

The only other way I can see around it is to protect the page indefinitely, or else delete it. RickK | Talk 05:05, 25 Mar 2004 (UTC)


Thanks for your vote on Rfa -- the support is greatly appreciated. Hajor 00:52, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)


Hey, I'm the user that started the page on Pamela W. Burton. Just came across Wikipedia tonight, and added stuff about Dave Garroway. Didn't realize this was out here. I thought you could add anything you wanted - so I put my mom on there.... and myself, but I may be important enough to stay on, who knows? Remove me if you'd like. It's Joshua Roberts.

Addressing constant vandalism

Couldn't we support a change in the software that would that prevent anonymous users from editing certain pages that are high vandalism tagets? Cecropia 03:43, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)
