Budapest

Thank you for looking at the article, but I know it's still far from GA material. It needs expansion, more references etc. Gregorik (talk) 16:15, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

My concern at this time is that the article is a bit bloated with pictures and heavily weighted in some areas while lacking in others. If there is anything I can do to help you improve the article, please let me know. Alan.ca (talk) 15:02, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Well I'm afraid you didn't help by removing a huge chunk of carefully researched material. The pictures need to go, true, but not the text. Excuse me. Gregorik (talk) 23:57, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

• Keep in mind that a good Feature Article is informative and reads well. In working on the Wikiproject City I often find that large lists inside of an article lower the article quality. I know there is a guidline about lists, if you would like I can try and look it up for you? In the mean time, to get some ideas about what a Featured Article looks like you may wish to visit the project's FA article list.

OK, no problem. I'll continue writing Budapest when I find the time. Gregorik (talk) 18:16, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

I speak not good English, sorry.I speak German and Hungarian. You deleted my Pictures from the Budapest side, because the old pictures was better(you opinion).But i deleted last not the old pictures, i created pictures gallery. Now resettle some pictures, but i handle not on the old version. And what the problem the photo gallery? Not too long, and this is low in the Article, and the pictures is informative(link-->Hungarian Academy, etc) and beauty!

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking me, but I think you may be commenting on my removal of pictures from the article. Image clutter can reduce the readability of an article. Please be sure when you are including photographs that you are maintaining a good balance of text to image ratio. As well, photographs that are not referenced by the text should not be in the article at all. Thank you for taking the time to write your concerns in a foreign language.

Vandalism

There was vandalism to your user page and I reverted it back to the way it was before the vandalism. Nhl4hamilton (talk) 02:14, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Thank you my friend, I have been busy with work lately and probably would have missed it for quite some time. Alan.ca (talk) 02:32, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

No problem. Nhl4hamilton (talk) 07:07, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Wikimedia Canada

I think I'll pass, but thanks for the offer. GoodDay (talk) 21:00, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm just content with what I'm doing. PS- I've already turned down an Administrator nomination. GoodDay (talk) 21:11, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

Good

Rent to own

I thought you’d like to know that I’ve just filed over at COI/N regarding all the reverts over at Rent to own. —Wulf (talk) 07:44, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Budapest people articles

You seem to have created two - Budapest/famous people and List of people from Budapest. The latter seems to be the correct name for such a page, so should the former exist? One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 23:05, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

I mainly created that page to serve as a means of reducing the clutter of content in the main Budapest article. I agree with your proposal to merge, as such, I have tagged the Budapest/famous people article for merge. If you have time to do the works, I fully support your decision to merge it with List of people from Budapest. Alan.ca (talk) 14:21, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi, since you have interacted with this user before, please add your evidence to this page in order for this person to be topic banned or community banned. miranda 02:59, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

• Thank you for taking on the project Miranda. I haven't had any contact with Justin as I resolved the issue by ignoring his behavior. He wasn't my worst experience on Misplaced Pages, but it does seem that he has had issues with other editors. I added my two cents to your notebook page, but I am not really interested in pursuing any kind of ban for him. Alan.ca (talk) 03:10, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
