{{Ivmbox|Hello, Ave Caesar. Voting in the ''']''' is open from Monday, 00:00, 21 November through Sunday, 23:59, 4 December to all unblocked users who have registered an account before Wednesday, 00:00, 28 October 2016 and have made at least 150 mainspace edits before Sunday, 00:00, 1 November 2016.
If you check the edit history of ] you will notice (other than you) that nobody has edited the page since last year. It might be a while before anyone speaks up over the fate of that article. I doubt anyone will object to the merging of LA Four with Reginald Denny... but we shall see. As far as I know, there is no time limit for merge requests. If you haven't already, I suggest reading over the ] article for more info and how to handle the merge. If you would like to handle the merge, I would recommend only deleting information that is redundant, and moving the rest to the new page. That will provide a base to work from, and perhaps some tibits of info to search for... although the info is mostly unsourced, it is probably somewhat accurate. As for finding suitable citations and copyediting for the new article, I would be willing to help with that. Just let me know. --] (]) 06:06, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

== Your revert ==

Hi,
why did you revert ? ].
Regards, ] (]) 18:52, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Now, you still haven't answered, and I don't have time to engage in a discussion that takes long. So I'm just going to repeat my edits one by one and then you can revert what you really mean to, I won't come back. Explanation for my edits (I'll copy it to the article talk, too):

1. "This use of a surname was a deliberate insult, since royalty do not normally use surnames." >> "This use of a surname was an anti-royalist statement ..." etc. Now, monarchy in France was abolished. He was not "royalty" any more. Hence, it was normal to refer to the boy by his name and surname, unless one didn't recognize the republic. In the same way, all the aristocrats, including many revolutionaries, had changed their names and their titles were not supposed to be used any longer. To say the opposite would be pro-royalist/pro-feudal POV.

2. Deletion of the last paragraph. - It depicts the same events that the next section depicts, so there is a duplication. It also depicts them from another, royalist POV, so it contradicts the next section. It describes cruelties that the next section disputes or refutes. It also includes rather wild and unusual claims such as the one that Simon led 8 year old Louis to prostitutes to contract venereal diseases!! So all in all, I think the article is better without it.

Regards, ] (]) 19:30, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

:OK, I see. I know any IP arouses suspicions, whatever the edit summary, although it shouldn't be like this. It's just that I'm too lazy to log in each time. But I guess I'm going to have to change that, because incidents like this are getting too frequent and it's pretty distracting. Anyway - happy editing! --] (]) 10:32, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

== Elizabeth of Russia ==

Hi Ave Caesar! I'm not removing the titular elements of the infobox, I'm just removing the unnecessary imperial title which is placed in the field "Name" (and she surely wasn't named "Empress Elizabeth"). Her title is written below her name. See for example ] - it is not "Queen Victoria" but simply "Victoria" because the title is placed below her name. I didn't notice that you reverted my edit so I edited the article again, sorry. ] (]) 12:50, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

"''Not sure if you're aware, but you shouldn't revert anymore on this article today per ].''" Point taken.

== Assessment revert ==

While the assessments are generally done by members only, I had just forgotten to log in when I made the edit. However, I think your revert may have been a little premature. If it does get downgraded by a non-member, a review of the article prior to a revert might be a better route to go. If this is contrary to policy, feel free to ignore this. Thanks! ] (]) 20:48, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
:I think you're right that it's wiser to do the review first. I gave it a once over and didn't really have a problem with B-class though. That coupled with the fact that members are usually the only ones who change the assessments led me to go ahead and revert it. Thanks for letting me know that was you though. --] (]) 20:50, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

:Hello Ave Caesar. I notice some tag removal happening at ] and I didn't notice any Talk page consensus for removal of the tags. If you believe that the article has POV issues or needs additional sources, it wouldn't hurt to say something on the Talk page. ] (]) 04:41, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi, Ave Caesar. I'm trying to represent the extension school very clearly on the page as they should be. I've found POV many times, specifically in the comparison of the Eli Whitney Program and Columbia citations. I've been personally attacked by Firstinline2009. He called me a troll. I've made, from what I understand, relevant and honest edits. Nobody gives reasons for strong reasons for changing my edits. I fear that the wikipage isn't accurate. Indeed, I'm new to wikipedia, but I'm getting ready to start a dispute about the page.{{unsigned|Extensiontf}}
:Yes, I agree that the article has many problems. However, you need to take this to the talk page. I am sure that First will start calming his language. You should, however, restrict your editing of an article in which you have a conflict of interest...This is true for all sides of this discussion. --] (]) 21:32, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

==User:PCPP==
There may be something wrong with his agenda, but I believe that he happens to be right on the matter of CIPFG. I feel that none have succeeded in demonstrating that this organisation is notable. None have advanced concrete arguments based on existing[REDACTED] policies and guidelines to keep this article. Even asdfg has suggested it may be notable for having organised the torch relay, but that tacitly admitted that it is not notable for itself. Notablity is not associative. ] (]) 13:07, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
:I think my argument is more so along the lines that the very fact that CIPFG is responsible for the torch relay as well as the investigation report from some time back makes it a notable organization. It passes ] by it and its efforts (ie the torch relay) being the primary subject of multiple sources. Anyway, this is a discussion better suited for the AfD. --] (]) 14:45, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

== move ==

Sorry, I'm new at this. I was reading over the discussion and it looked like there was a general agreement from both sides that the title of the article sucked and wasn't neutral and I thought this was a good solution. If people object to the title they can move it back but why don't we just hold off moving it and see if the move is generally acceptable to folks? ] (]) 16:36, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

==ExtensionTF==

I remember when I was warned of being blocked for removing or adding material to the site without discussing it on the talks page. Is there anything you can do to warn ExtensionTF who keeps adding this ridiculous addition about the Extension Studies degrees? The information he is posting was already made apparent in the aricle, yet he keeps adding it back on. Atleast a mention that he is treading on thin ice. Thanks.] (]) 21:17, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
:I gave him a formal 3RR warning concerning the addition of information that is already in the article. I don't feel strongly enough one way or the other about the inclusion of comparative material concerning how the school's program is or is not like that of Columbia or Yale. --] (]) 21:25, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi, there: ExtensionTF here. I felt like the Undergraduate degrees and Graduate degrees sections of the page (and certificates) did not represent the school precisely as they appear on the website or in the commencement book (and it's still ambiguous). All information that I provided, people can verify pretty easily. I'm actually the one who added the term Extension Studies in the first place. I agree, however, that the some of the diploma information, such as house affiliation, might be considered by some over-kill on information. Also, the people above told me that, "my comments weren't helping the extension school... and that i was obviously a troll (finishline!)." It's not too important who said what, but what I think is important is that I am not here to "help" the extension school or troll. I am here to represent it as adequately as possible, because that's the wiki (and right) thing to do. Anything else is non-wiki like. You might not like what the school represents. You can look at all my contributions and decide for yourself if you can verify the claims or not. I go to the extension school, indeed. But my claims are neutral and verifiable. I don't compare it to other schools because it's not the Harvard Extension Comparison page--it's the Harvard Extension School page. If anything was strongly out of place with my comments or articles, wikipedian's would call me on it. All I'm trying to do is be a good wikipedian. Call it what you will, but the idea behind wiki is as, jimbo whales might say, "trusting people." So don't trust me--go and make your claims--wikipedia will deal with you the way it deals with me. <small>—Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 23:28, 19 June 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
