I will AfD it, but before I do, I would appreciate it if you pre-told me your vote and rationale, so we could try avoiding AfD. My position is, essentially, that chapters of fraternities, along with all other single-college student groups, are inherently NN. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 18:11, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am of the belief that if these groups can establish notability sufficient for any other article, they should be treated as any other article. That being said, I have refrained from voting at the AfD for MIT Assassins' Guild; while I am certain they are notable, I have no sources to back that belief up.

Hmm, according to the LARP page, the Guild popularized the assassin game; perhaps that is notable enough? Isopropyl 18:26, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think we're being ridiculous?

I'd have to say yes. Trying to follow through with consensus has made most of us look foolish and is becoming a public mockery; it's embarassing that it's come to this, especially now since the page is just a blank that doesn't want to redirect anymore. This is the kind of stigma that falls on a lot of DBZ-type articles, and I'm ashamed to have been aparty of it. Still, I want to follow through with proper Wikiquette and procedures, humiiating as it's turned out to be.

I apologize for bringing you into it and dragging you down along with me. I'm very sorry. Voice of Treason 20:11, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

After clearing my cache I should probably leave it well enough alone at this point. Redirect works now. Hopefully this article will stay out of trouble the rest of the day. Voice of Treason 21:46, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Amen. Looking forward to forgetting about that particular article. Isopropyl 22:54, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
File:Motherussia.jpg Hello Isopropyl, and thank you for your support at my request for adminship, which ended with an awe-inspiring 86/1/2 result. I plan to do much with my shiny new tools - but I'll start slow and learn the ropes at first. Please deluge me with assignments and requests - I enjoy helping out. For Mother Russia!! - raise a glass of C2 H5 OH! - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 05:37, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

These are different things and as such I think it isn't a good idea to merge. A Quiz league isn't a type of pub quiz, a lot of people do both, but they are quite distinct. Happy to discuss. Jw6aa 09:31, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am not really familiar with the subject, but the pre-merger diff of quiz league differed from pub quiz by a single paragraph, so I just merged it into the relevant section on league quizzes. I am not opposed to unmerging, but we should probably beef up the leage article a bit if we do. Thanks for bringing it up! Isopropyl 11:49, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ref Desk- IRC

I made a brief reply to your reference desk query- hope it helps! EVOCATIVEINTRIGUE TALKTOME | EMAILME | IMPROVEME 13:20, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the quick response! Isopropyl 13:24, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Art criticism question

No problem - hope my comments were some help! Grutness...wha? 01:21, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

3RR

Thanks for the note. I was somewhat concerned about that, but the reverts haven't been simple back-and-forth of two versions. In the last revert, I re-added the counterpoint section, but also restored another section to a version that had been sourced via the ref tag. In any case, I'm going to give it a rest and let others chime in for awhile. OhNoitsJamie Talk 02:10, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Repeats

Hey, I wasn't refering to you when I mentioned "repeating myself;" I was referring to the editors who keep reverting back to old versions with little regard for points or suggestions made in the discussion. OhNoitsJamie Talk 00:26, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Welcoming

Thanks a lot for your welcoming. --Tiglet 21:22, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alt. spellings

Hi- I've been trying to develop a fair, consistent way to deal with alternative spellings to help ease the Wikipedia Spelling Wars problem. (See end of this section: Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style#How_to_treat_spelling_conflicts_in_the_lead_paragraph.) In an article that has a word with various spellings and another word, my "or color..." solution might not be needed, but, we have to apply the same criteria to all articles, and try removing "or colour charge" from the "color charge" article and count the seconds until someone reverts you. I suggest we leave the "or" bit in all these articles.--Cultural Freedom 2006-07-16 08:59 (UTC)

Lace disambig

Yay, thanks for doing that merge! Really fast, too. :) --Galaxiaad 01:55, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No problem! :) Isopropyl 04:43, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
