About the articles itself; did you liked 'em. One of them is about the History of Iran, you know, the one from the Bavand Dynasty. The other is about Dirus Rijkers, the naval hero.

I have added some references to the Pier Gerlofs Donia article that I have used in the past and are relevant to information mentioned in this article.
Are you sure about the ancestoral line Haring Donia to the Galama family. My genealogy research indicates that Haring was related to the Galama family through the marriage of his granddaughter Trijn to Gale Yges Galama. Of course it is possible that Haring Donia could have a Galama grandparent, I just have not found info to support this.. if you have this info I would love to see it.... as Haring Donia is my Great Great...grandparent and I am a decendant of Pier Gerlof Donias sister Tijdt.
Thanks a lot! I'll give you some sources within a few days! It is great to have a decendant of the great Donian and Galama-families on this site! I find it highly intersting to hear his; the ancestor-related thing. And I feel flatterned to hear your compliments. -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 15:24, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.
A few features that you might find helpful:
Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
We've developed a variety of guidelines for article structure and content, template use, categorization, and other issues that you may find useful.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Carom 20:29, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Dorus-1-.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 17:27, 17 April 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. howcheng {chat} 17:27, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

If you are using Firefox, right-click and pick "This Frame" and then View Frame Info.

Hello. While we appreciate that you seem to be enjoying yourself, it's of concern that you appear to be mainly using Wikipedia for social networking activities rather than improving encyclopedia articles. Please understand that Wikipedia is not a blog, webspace provider, or social networking site. If you continue your activities in this fashion, you may be subject to censure from the community. Thank you. --Geniac 15:57, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
As far as I can tell, the article you wrote did not get included on todays Did You Know (DYK) section. If it did, the administrator that updated it would have notified you and left a template on your talk page notifying you. First off, it is bad form, to include articles you created in the DYK/Next Update page, put it on the templates talk page where proposals are viewed and slected by administrators. Also, make sure your article meets the DYK requirements. Third of all, I reccomend removing the DYK tag from your userpage until the article actually gets shown! Good luck. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 17:57, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
I have a little bit of experience with the DYK section, i have had several articles featured there. Your "hook" as it is called was WAY too long. I shortened it so that the readers could get the main idea of what he was really known for.

Hi, after I asked you above to not add your article to the Next Update, you went and did it again. Please refrain from doing so. For one thing, it is considered bad form to move your own articles to the Next Update, especially because you're new to DYK. I'll admit to doing that myself, but I've been doing DYK for a while so I'm a trusted user. Also, there are a number of other articles in the queue before yours, so we are going to spotlight those first. Lastly, after having looked at Arumer Black Heap, I noticed that the article has no references, so there's no way it can be featured on DYK right now. Please add sources to the article and please be patient -- assuming it meets all the criteria, it will be picked. Regards, howcheng {chat} 16:45, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
My friend, DYK is about patience. If you created the article well, and have a good hook, it will eventually get there. If you would like an second opinion about a hook, feel free to let me know. However, please do not re-add your own DYK to the next update. I, even though I am an administrator and could add mine to anywhere I want, choose not to because of the obvious conflict of interest. IF you have any questions, please feel free to let me know. Thanks! -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 17:09, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Better source request for Image:Dorus-1-.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Dorus-1-.jpg. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talkpage. Thank you. howcheng {chat} 16:14, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello H.O. You are an ethusiastic contributor, but in this historical article you have made a number of edits containing assumptions for which there is no proof (e.g. we do not know for sure that the helmet and sword kept in Fryslân actually belonged to Pier. In addition, we do not know his actual height or weight (The height you suggest is highly unlikely, since the tallest man alive today is only 2,36 m and all men of such extreme size and weight suffer from health problems that make them of little use in battle). And we cannot say for a fact that he lifted a horse, that is just legend). You should therefore rewrite these things in terms of assumptions and not as factual claims (for the latter citations would be required). Have you asked the Fries Museum for the actual weight of the sword, or are you just guessing? Most sources give 6.6 kg as weight (Swords were not as heavy as you might think and a sword weighing 24 kg would be useless in battle even for a very strong man).
(Paaskynen 12:13, 25 April 2007 (UTC))
Well, lets say it's 7 kg, okay, thats' also what the Fries Museum says. I went there, 'cause I live in the Netherlands myself, an I went there once. That is more reliable and realistic. And the height of this man is just a guess, and needs to be brought up as a guess, not like a fact. The horse-lifting legend needs to be kept, but not as a fact, but a legend. So I'll rearrange these things, allmost all of 'em, from facts into assunptions\legends. Thanks for telling me, and I'll think twice before adding assuntions and legends as being facts. Thanks for telling me, and goodbye.
In the two images you provide of Piers he is not wielding a zweihander. In the painting he is wielding a much smaller sword and the statue shows a sword design inconsistent with all other scholarship on swords of that era. I assume that the sculptor has taken considerable artistic license, as the statue is clearly highly stylized. Is there any evidence that the sword in the Frisian museum is not a bearing sword[1]. The consensus amongst the Historical Europeans Swordsmanship community is that such swords were purely decorative. As such you must provide references to that particular sword actually being used in battle. Mercutio.Wilder 17:47, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
Well, he did used a 2,15 meter long sword in battle. It is not particulary known if this sword is a Zweihander; it could be another type 'o blade. But I wasn't the one who added the Zweihander-type balde on the articles-page in first instant; someone else did. If he would have said longsword, for example, I would have putten Piers' name on that page; is just a must to have that man mentioned on the page, for wielding suvh an enormous blade of a type which is Zweihander, or at least something very similiar to it. -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 18:17, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi there, I was wondering why you removed the copyedit tag from Touch the Clouds. I think it is a good article but it needs alot of work on grammer, sentence structure and tone, all things that WP:LoCE can and will do if the tag is there to put it on their list. I think I am correct that perhaps English is not your first language and it might be difficult to see the things that need to be changed. This is not a criticism of you or the article, it is just a way to improve it. you can continue to add more information and then let someone from LoCE go over it to improve the language, but the tag does need to be there.

I see you filed an AfD, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bleach (anime series), for a duplicate copy of the Bleach (manga) page. While this was better than just leaving it to sit, a more efficient course of action would be to have simply replaced the page with a redirect to the existing article on the subject instead of making everyone wait a week.
I would be willing to fix this and redirect the page now, but I thought it would be better to get your agreement first. Would you be willing to withdraw the AfD so that the page can be redirected instead? If so, just say so either here or on my talk page or at the AfD itself. I'll deal with the closing templates, redirection, and the off chance of taking bureaucratic flak for not going exactly by the book. --tjstrftalk 07:56, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

I have added some references to the Pier Gerlofs Donia article that I have used in the past and are relevant to information mentioned in this article.
Are you sure about the ancestoral line Haring Donia to the Galama family. My genealogy research indicates that Haring was related to the Galama family through the marriage of his granddaughter Trijn to Gale Yges Galama. Of course it is possible that Haring Donia could have a Galama grandparent, I just have not found info to support this.. if you have this info I would love to see it.... as Haring Donia is my Great Great...grandparent and I am a decendant of Pier Gerlof Donias sister Tijdt.
By the way great article on Ygo III Galama. I put the article in on Ygo Gales Galama sometime ago, now he is not so lonely.
Thanks a lot! I'll give you some sources within a few days! It is great to have a decendant of the great Donian and Galama-families on this site! I find it highly intersting to hear his; the ancestor-related thing. And I feel flatterned to hear your compliments. -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 15:24, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Haggawaga - Oegawagga
Sorry to point out the obvious but seems to me your article on Ygo III Galama is coming under a bit of scrutiny because of some obvious errors/inaccuracies that you should fix asap before others do.
1. Genealogy research indicates Ygo died in Antioch in 1099 (which was 'after' the siege of Antioch I believe) but he certainly did not die in circa 1198 (your article: born 1139, died at age 59) which was well after the first crusade.
2. The references you have quoted appear to be cut and paste from Ygo Gales Galama article, those references do not mention Ygo III Galama only Ygo Gales Galama. Langenberg Genealogy and Holkema Genealogy refers to Ygo III Galama as Ygo Joukes Galama and only mentions his death and burial in 1099 at Antioch.
3. I am very suspect about the ancestory of Pier Gerlofs Donia and Haring Harinxma to Ygo III Galama ... I do not think they are related. You should fix this on your Pier Gerlofs Donia article as well.
Sorry about the bad news but if its not accurate its not worth recording. Like I said, if in doubt leave it out.

Fair use rationale for Image:Grutte Pier as been seen in Floris (serie).JPG[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Grutte Pier as been seen in Floris (serie).JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ilse@ 13:19, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
I smiled when I found out that I was of Frisian ancestry, but other users might not find it so funny. I suggest that you remove the userbox from the other userpages where you put it in order not to bother people. If you like to play jokes on other users, a better way is to leave a message on the user talk page saying: "I hereby appoint you king of the Frisians!" and adding the userbox. Cheers!

I'm afraid I can't block anyone. I'm not an admin. It does look like they have vandalized your page, which means you should leave a warning, possible starting with {{subst:uw-upv1}} and moving up through uw-upv4 on their talk page. If they continue vandalizing after being warned, report it to WP:AIV. What you shouldn't be doing is logging out and leaving inappropriate messages on their talk page and vandalizing their user page in retaliation. --OnoremDil 09:25, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
Another note after looking through your contributions. You appear to be editing quite a few other people's user pages. It's my experience that most people do not like that. The vandalism on your own userpage might be happening partly because of that. I suggest you stay away from other user pages completely for a while and see if that helps. --OnoremDil 09:46, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

It just doesn't make any sense, this thing! I've done a lot of good things for this site. I've expanded many biography article, created lot, (even one DYK- article), and improved a lot also. Ands I've uploaded\created many images for the illustration of many articles. I don't think, you help wikipedia by banning\blocking a good contributor, because I am now forced to quit my good work. I know, I sometimes did small vandalism, but nothing major, nor worse enough to block a man from editing for it. So please, consider to take a closer look at my activities in the past, and all the good things did, not only the bad ones. I've worked with many editors who can say nothing than good about me as an editor\contributor (and some might say the opposite). Please, think about it. Greetings,

If an article is nominated for articles for deletion, please follow the rules regarding it. This means do not get a bunch of friends where you work to log on and vote keep. This is known as meatpuppetry. Similarly, do not create alternate accounts to pad the votes. It will be found it. This is known as sockpupperty. I know that your article creation is in good faith which is why I am going to bat here for you. Please do not let me down. If you have any questions ASK before you do it.

Please, in the future, be more careful changing userbox templates as you did to Template:user Dutch-ancestry2 (then named Template:user Dutch, whose redirect I just changed to Template:user Dutch-ancestry). Saying that one is of Dutch ancestry is not necessarily saying that you are proud of it (which I am indifferent on), and certainly not that one is a nationalist (which I personally consider an insult). I only noticed the changes today, and I can imagine there are plenty of other people in my situation, so I changed the redirect to a more neutral template.
I personally think this isn't right. Other templates also mention users to be proud of ther ancestry. And I don't see any point in don't be proud. That isn't nationalism, no even radical patriotism; its pride. Thats my opinion. -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 12:50, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

You might search on google, but I'm not sure what you'll find. I can tell you, that I took the picture of the rebel Supriata myself. It was in the summer of 1967, that I saw him in Indonesia when on a trip to land (I was a sailorman and worked with the engine of a transport-ship). Indonesia than was allready independant for over 10 years (oficially since 1949), and so he wasn't a rebel back than. He looked older han he was, around 55 years old, but you could see he lived trough tough life. He agreed with me taking a picture of him. Its not the only one; I believe, I might have some pictures of which I'm standing next to Supriata. Does that provide enough information for the moment. I am the number one specialist about him on this wikipedia, I suppose, although my knowledge of Indonesian history itself might be less great. e image itself is higly styled; I'm not sure, but maybe its oiginally in colour.

I am just a bit curious why you cite anderson and there is not single mention of him in that book - and you do not specifically identify place of birth. To me it suggests lack of reasonable third party sources - I dont care whether you claim to be an expert on him or whatever - it verges on lack of reliable sources when I cannot find anything in the ref that you claim has something on him. If I were you - I would be very very careful what you say next - as so far it is not adding up to sustain the article - I would strongly suggest that you need something other than your personal experience - or 'number one specialist'. If you have any good sense you find something that actually names the person. SatuSuro 14:15, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
Can't you tell us? You tell us you are the 'expert' and you contributed to 90% + of the article's information and provided the two references. [2]. Merbabu 14:23, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
It was a long time ago, so I don't now much right now. I'm getting older. But I did not add those refernces, I believe. As I told you, my account is also used by others, and I think someone else might have edited and contributed nonsense to the article. All I know, is that he was a former rebel. I went on shore, of the ship I worked as an engineer, and visisted a small town, a bit more inland. I can't give you an exact location right now; I must search for that. I know, that heir was a man in his mid fifty's when I met him, and that he was called Supriata, and enormously respected by the town folks. He agreed to be pictured by me, with my captains' camera, because I saw that the man was important, or at least used to be famous somedays. Thats how I got the picture. The text?

I'll search for it, Merbabu, I'll give 'em in a few more days. -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 05:47, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

You must provide references or your articles will be deleted. I have warned you about your account. The compromised account thing is not going to work any more. I have tried as much as I can to help you but being abrasive and disruptive then blaiming it on somebody else using the account is not going to cut it. Work with the people who are requesting references and if you keep claiming that "my grandson" or soembody else used my account, we will have no other choice than to block you. I really dont want to do that because I know you write good artices however you MUST be able to work collaborativley. Thanks! -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 14:39, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
Okay, I'll work things out. You're completely right about this. -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 18:24, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
I'm curious how this image is being released under the GFDL when the source you provided shows that it comes from contactpakistan.com whose copyright policies do not appear to release images or text under the GFDL. I have marked this image for speedy deletion. --OnoremDil 10:57, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Image:State-funeral of Dorus Rijkers, 1928.JPG[edit]
This picture is of an event that only happened 80 years ago. How is it that it could be public domain as life of the author plus 100 years? Please provide appropriate licensing information. A source for the picture must also be provided. I have listed this image at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. --OnoremDil 11:19, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
lieing about image copyrights in serious. If you do not know ASK! I know they are confusing but it it serious. I have deleted the one copyrighted infringement and would like you to provide a link to where you got the picture of dorus rijkers state funeral from. Thanks. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 11:28, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
I have not tagged this image yet, but it also concerns me. This image needs a source, and the author + 100 years is only applicable if the artist died within a couple years of painting it.
I'm not going to go through the rest of your uploads at the moment, but please go back and check to make sure you have provided a valid source and licensing image for these pictures. --OnoremDil 11:33, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
It is beliueved that Melano Supriatna is a hoax article. I know you have written several valid articles in the past so I am wondering if you may have spelled his name wrong? Please tell us where you got this information. Word of mouth, stories you have heard from others or pesronal experiences do not qualify as appropriate references because they are all orignial research. If you cannot provide reliable sources, the article will most likley be deleted. When I start writing an article, the FIRST thing I do is make sure i have a source to write from. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 12:04, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Chris, at what point to we stop pretending the AGF? Haggawaga - Oegawagga gave two authoritative books as sources; but we have shown this was bogus editing. I think we are beyond pretending AGF here. His edit is knowingly false. He then deliberately mislead us over the last 24 hours. Interesting that this article as been edited by editors that check user confirms as one. Ocking Jayat Mayaj is another apparently bogus article with the same 'gang' all editing. What's going on? Merbabu 12:26, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Next time you create an article without references, or we find that you created an article with false references, or you upload copyrighted material as being in the public domain you will be blocked. I do not want to have to do this but these acteions are VERY disruptive and damaging to this project. It takes large amounts of time to be sorting these issues out, time that could be best used elsewhere. Thanks -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 12:39, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with Image:Dorus-1-.jpg[edit]
Image Copyright problem
Thank you for uploading Image:Dorus-1-.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. PLease provide the source for this image. Gnangarra 13:27, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
I see you didn't have that much to do with this one. Do you think it is just more User:Murlock nonsense? He uses the same references you used for the Melano, at least one of which is false. Merbabu 13:48, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
I don't know User:Murlock that well. Considering his blocking, he doesn't seem a good editor. His talk page is protected, as I've seen while trying to contact him. Unprotect the thing, and send him a message. He seems to know more; He claims t be related to the man himself!. But my opinion; its a hoax. I'd say; keep. For now... -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 21:29, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
So you think it is a hoax, but we should keep it. hmmm. Merbabu 01:11, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
...and you did actually start it which suggests a connection with Murlock. The historys of these two hoaxes that you were 'both' involved with are extremely similar. Merbabu 08:04, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
Never mind. Redirect 'em both to Indonesian National Revolution, instead of just deleting 'em. And considercontacting Murlock himself, okay? I am not in the position to decide to keep articles or to delete 'em. I think, I'd better leave that to the admins. Understood? I just don't want to say "Go ahead, delete it", and it seems to be veriable after all, or "Well, keep it", and it shows up t be nonsense. So, I ain't touchin' this one! In my personal opinion, however, I advice to tell the articles original creators first. -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 08:49, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
The point is you were the 'original creator'. Merbabu 08:53, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
Oh. I just redirect it, because I thaught it was nonsense having a redlink to a non-excisting person. In any case, it would have been an insult to the man himself having a vandalising youngster claiming to be related to him. So I redirected it to an article I than was more sure about its truthfulness. Still, I wasn't he creator of an article; I was the creator of an redirect; he later created the article of he man he is related to (according to him). Te events he mentioned in the article, seemed to be realistic, but nonetheless, the man can't be verified to have excisted. Same goes for my article (not much more than vague claimes and an old picture). I now accerpt any choices you make. Whether o delete or to keep it; its all up to you. -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 09:02, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

I've noticed the sources you have provided to General Sayed Shirazi do not support the information in the article - only the bit about the hotel is mentioned. Could you please provide additional sources. As you of course know, everything in wikipedia must be verified by reliable sources. Merbabu 03:22, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
PS, I've now removed that Google reference too. Merbabu 03:53, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
I have blocked you for 24 hours for continuing to upload copyrighted images. I gave you a warning, asked you to not do it again and said that if you did you would recieve a block. Please before you upload any more images, ASK if they are copyrighted. This will require you to provide a source and any information about it. Thanks. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 18:25, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Sorry for re-uploading the image; I wasn't doing good. But I thaught the man should have an article with an image. For as far I'm aware, no copeyright was given. I wasat first uncertain at uploading, and when I did, it was deleted with reason.

Did you hear it, your artickle: Melano Supriatna is nominated for delition and well it doesn't look to good. You do not have a single source and neither Melano Supriatna nor Supriata is to find on google, don't know what you're gonna do about this but I'd better put some sources if I was you. The Honorable Kermanshahi 17:19, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
It is to find on google, but you then find nonsense. Their seem to be loads of people by this name or last name. I don't like to see this one deleted, but rather prefer a redirection here. I shall see what I can do, but don't intend to give myself any false hope (I now know how the deletion policy is around here!). Anyway, thanks for telling me something I (sadly) allready knew. -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 19:41, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
Alright. :-) As you might already know, this is an encyclopedia, and we must adhere to our NPOV policy. Now that we've set this straight, there are many sentences in both articles that violate this policy and are written in a biased tone. Yes, I know he might be considered a legend, but writing that someone is a legend without citing reliable (and neutral) references is considered bias and even original research. Also you can't say that "he was given a funeral that was so grand that it resembled a state funeral in size and style."; it's not a fact. You might rephrase it as "People attending the funeral described it as grand, with some comparing to a state funeral." Other sentences like "In the waters where he served, he saved such large number of people with such effectiveness that the survival statistics increased dramatically," "At the end of his career, although he remained active, his role became more symbolic in nature," "Dorus Rijkers had become a national hero and was by far the most popular Dutchman of those years," and "To have wielded such a weapon he must have been a man of unusual stature and physical strength" are not neutral. While the facts might be true, they are not confirmed and verified by any sources. Also, the articles have lots of praise but very few, or even no, criticisms.

Oh gosh, dear, you'll kill me for taking four days to get back to you! I swear, with the RL stuff that left me little time to edit, and the wiki-stuff I had to attend to, time just slipped through my fingers like sand... will you forgive me... please? ;) I didn't want to leave your question unanswered, because it was a beautiful compliment in itself; no, I don't consider myself an artist, and tho I draw in pencil every now and then, I'm not really good at it. The fact that you believed me to be one is perhaps the most beautiful mistake I've been subject of in a long, long time... but I'll never claim to be something I'm not. Again, thank you for the charming message, and I hope we talk more - your friendly sig is known to me, and nothing would please me more than seeing interacting with mine often ;) Have a beautiful day! Love, Phaedriel - 09:09, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
Well, that lovely answer sure was worth waiting for over four days', Phaedriel! I would have waited for a month, when I would have knew that this would be your answer. Your writing style, though, and the wonderful way your user-page looked, made me believe that you were an artist. This way, I am certainly not feeling sorryt for my mistake! -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 10:45, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
So, i have done alot of assuming good faith on your part recently however good faith does not mean turining my back on innapropriate activity. My actions have come under scrutiny for this. This is a request from me that you do not repeat your controversial behavior. Being you were warned, it would no longer be considered good faith. Please feel free to contribute however you MUST and i mean MUST include a reliable source for ANY new articles that you create. The next time we find a source that is used falsley, you will be blocked. This is not to scare you, or give you paranoia, however to remind you to think carefully about what you do. before I write any article, I make sure I have at least 2 reliable sources. I often buy books, search books.google.com and other areas for reliable sources. Thanks and good luck. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 14:27, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
