How about some help

Any editing help you can give me on my additions to Gary Schwartz would be greatly appreciated. I am no master of words. I write like I talk. It is the best I can do. I have been told no one really talks like that. I am sorry but I do. I am not sophisticated. I am just a grunt puzzler with an enormous amount of curiousity about eldritch stuff. I am also a very slow learner. What the hell is a template? I am certaintly out of the computer loop.Kazuba (talk) 03:12, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Martinphi et al.

I'm not sure I agree with this. I think he's allowed his statement on his own user talk page, but I certainly don't know about or care about the huge volume of bureaucratic Wikipedia rules. I actually was surprised by the decision to indef Martinphi, because I have worked with him on a couple of articles to make it balanced. I did so because I was trying to find a way to get his favorite paranormal articles some semblance of NPOV. I think his obsession with SA (and vice versa) weren't very useful. Martin did it with a certain level of civility, which is nice, but in fact, he had an agenda. SA has an agenda (closer to my own), but does it with a higher level of uncivility than even I'm willing to undertake. Oh well. Anyways, we have lots of things to accomplish on this project, and I hope we can proceed without another huge kerfuffle with regards to pseudoscience.

For future reference: Miscellany for deletion. I rather suspect that the community would just shrug at that statement, though. - Eldereft (cont.) 18:37, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm not too bothered about the content of the page (I think it's silly, etc), but I thought it was standard to replace the text of a banned user with that notice. However, I've placed the banner at the top for now. I think there was a pretty recent MfD anyway. I'm only semi-interested in this policy stuff. Thanks for your notes.

I wasn't too interested in this matter from the start. But what did this have to do with User:jossi? I noticed that Martin made some sort of comment about it. OrangeMarlin ^{Talk• Contributions} 18:51, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Hnh, I never knew that - thanks. - Eldereft (cont.) 13:24, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Eh? I missed the Jossi link. Apart from the odd interaction I only know him from his Register fame (shh, OM) Verbal chat 13:28, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

User page deletion

I was just testing creating a user profile - and inadvertently created an undesirable information trail in the edit history, and page deletion seemed the only way to get rid of it. Wish I could have deleted this information without external (admin) help. For sure will stay w/ Wikipedia ;) T.pienn (talk) 23:32, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
