Question

You edited the "Queen Elizabeth High School" page, editing a listing of Musicals produced there:

Could you please check it and see if it is still correct? There's some dispute as to whether an entry should be "Gigi" or "My Fair Lady". -- Doom 19:33, 4 June 2006 (UTC) (By the way: please create an account: it makes it much easier to keep track of who is doing what.)

Sago Mine disaster

I removed your merge tag on Sago Mine disaster. You didn't explain why there should be a merge on the talk page. Also, the Randal McCloy page you suggested be merged into Sago is huge. There is no room to put most of the information there into Sago. I also saw that this IP address has numerous warnings for vandalism, etc., so I am not taking you seriously. If I am wrong or you feel you have a good reason for merging, please discuss it on the Sago talk page. Thank you. Fanra 15:54, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

The fact that it needs to be explained to you why a person who has no claims to encyclopedic notability outside of surviving one notable event does not need an article separate from that event is disappointing enough. The Randal McCloy article may be large; the amount of encyclopedically notable information in it is not. But when I turned on the computer this morning, I was randomly assigned an IP address, and people who had that IP address before me had done stupid things with it, and you think that is all the reason you need to not take me seriously? Do you realize just how foolish that sounds? Imagine if the police were to take that attitude. "Well, we got a call from a payphone saying that there was a bank robbery and that a bystander who was shot during the getaway needs our help badly. But I see in the logs that we've had prank calls coming from that payphone before, so we're not going to take any calls from that phone seriously." As you suggested, I have posted an explanation of the merge proposal on the Sago talk page. But I urge you to get rid of your naive prejudice against IP users and start judging ideas on their own merits; unlike your current practice, that will reflect well upon you. -- 192.250.34.161 20:10, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Twinkie defense edits

Greetings. Your deletions from the Twinkie defense articles have been reversed again. Please use the article's talk pages to discuss material you feel doesn't apply to the article. Benjiboi 23:21, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Regards. Your reinsertion of non-Twinkie defense material into the Twinkie defense article has been reversed again. Please see my lengthy explanation on the talk page on why your material is misplaced and furthers misunderstanding rather than improving the article. -- 192.250.34.161 15:37, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your input on this matter. You have inspired me to dig up references and sources that I am glad to have read. And without your efforts the article would have limped along blissfully unfabulous. The original transcripts and documents from the trial don't yet seem to be archived online (except an archive of artists drawings) but I'm sure someone will add them as they appear.

Hi. I deleted a few references to a drug called "360otc" that was posted about in the articles for several headache medications. The additions sounded somewhat spam-like -- based on your history at Misplaced Pages I'd definitely give you the benefit of the doubt, but I really don't think the mention of the new headache drug belongs in each of the separate headache drug articles at this point. Thanks; Greg
