SEMI-RETIRED
This user is no longer very active on Wikipedia.

I am now semi-retired, and most likely will take a very long time to respond to any queries, as I do not show up here often.

Oh, you archived. Oops, I thought you said "India", LOL, I feel so embarrassed. :D See, that shows ya that I don't pay close attention to stuff. You probably don't care, but oh well, I'll tell you anyway: I finished my exams yesterday and couldn't be happier. Yay. :) Well, I've never been to Indiana, but I do hear that they got some good food there, not sure, just heard. Yes, send me a message or IM me. If I come up with something, I'll let you know. Before I forget, have a safe trip and you call me when you get there. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 22:56, 5 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Phil Collins

edit

I don't suppose you could work on this article? Currently it's not even GA worthy, let alone FA standard. So much of it is unsourced. It will have to be delisted if it doesn't get some TLC :( — R2 16:31, 10 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Agree, something to work on over the summer I expect. However, since there are GA sweeps underway, it wouldn't surprise me if FA sweeps come soon as well ... — R2 20:27, 10 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Im out

edit

hi dear. Im hospitalised for the last few days due to an accident. I just logged in through my brother's laptop to ask a favour. Please can you watchlist the Gaga articles untill Wednesday? I'll be discharged by then. I guess you know the amount of crappy additions that goes in these articles (bio + songs + album + tour). Just for these few days only. Please. :( --Legolas (talk2me) 00:39, 13 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Newsday

edit

Hello, I saw via your talk page that you have full access to the Newsday archive? I am working mostly on Long Island related articles, and was hoping to see a few articles that I can only get to the abstract on. The articles are: LIVING IN / Rural Selden Putting on a New Face (May. 24, 1998), In the Middle of It All in Centereach / Affordable houses, plenty of playmates, Wal-Mart (Dec. 7, 1997), Centereach Changing Place, Changing People Series (Dec. 15, 1985), CORAM Lower prices, friendly neighbors make a first-time buyer's dream Series (Apr. 29, 1989). Any help you could lend or suggest would be great. Thanks. --Neighborhoodpalmreader (talk) 16:21, 5 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Re:Hi

Hey hey hey. I'm absolutely fine! And kudos on you that you are doing these wonderful things in your life! How's everything coming along with the chica? About Madonna wikiproject it seems that I am the only one who is concerned at all about the state of the articles they are in. People are randomly adding shit in the articles. Prolific editors like Bookkeeper are only concerned with the biography article only. Hence, yeah it is kinda stressing me out! But oh well, I love doing it!! --Legolas (talk2me) 03:30, 11 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well well well. Looks like somebody remembered me! How very fortunate I am. It's good to see you back here. Hope everything is fine with your chica! Madonna and Lady Gaga articles are as exhaustive as they can be. Well nothing new with me. I am planning to shift to New York probably. ~~ 07:35, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
Job related purposes. That would also mean that my time here on Wikipedia is totally gone. Wonder what would happen to the Madonna wikiproject. One question. Why did you decided to retire from here. I appreciate your work in Detective Conan, but you could shift between both. Like I do between Wikipedia nad pulsemusic. --Legolas (talk2me) 08:23, 17 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

A favour?

heya, how are you? i came across you whilst editing some of the phil collins articles and also noticed on your userpage that you (like me) are a big fan and like working on his stuff. i have been working on the Phil Collins discography and just wondered if you would take a looky if you had a chance? suggest some improvements and help me out with some music video director sources maybe? any help would be wicked :) Mister sparky (talk) 23:09, 3 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Re: Hey

I've been doing good, how 'bout yourself? Yeah, it's been a long while. But, I knew that. ;) That sucks. I'm gonna miss you. Man, we never got to work on those song articles. Oh well. I haven't worked on a song article for quite sometime, so. I've been good, staying active here, and dealing with school. All is good, really. I hope you're doing good. I'm really gonna miss ya, but the outside life is calling, it's understandable. :) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 16:54, 17 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Merger proposal

edit

You are receiving this because you have commented on either Autogynephilia, Homosexual transsexual, or Blanchard, Bailey, and Lawrence theory in the past two years; all such commenters have received this notice. It has been proposed to merge these three articles to eliminate WP:Redundancy, WP:UNDUE, WP:POV, and to keep the focus on the specific Blanchardian theory of M2F transsexuality (in contrast to Transsexual sexuality, which would be to focus on the subject in general). Please feel free to comment on the proposal at Talk:Autogynephilia#Merger proposal. -- 70.57.222.103 (talk) 20:04, 8 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject Good Articles Recruitment Centre

edit
 
Hello! Now, some of you might have already received a similar message a little while ago regarding the Recruitment Centre, so if you have, there is no need to read the rest of this. This message is directed to users who have reviewed over 15 Good article nominations and are not part of WikiProject Good articles (the first message I sent out went to only WikiProject members).

So for those who haven't heard about the Recruitment Centre yet, you may be wondering why there is a Good article icon with a bunch of stars around it (to the right). The answer? WikiProject Good articles will be launching a Recruitment Centre very soon! The centre will allow all users to be taught how to review Good article nominations by experts just like you! However, in order for the Recruitment Centre to open in the first place, we need some volunteers:

  • Recruiters: The main task of a recruiter is to teach users that have never reviewed a Good article nomination how to review one. To become a recruiter, all you have to do is meet this criteria. If we don't get at least 5-10 recruiters to start off with (at the time this message was sent out, 2 recruiters have volunteered), the Recruitment Centre will not open. If interested, make sure you meet the criteria, read the process and add your name to the list of recruiters. (One of the great things about being a recruiter is that there is no set requirement of what must be taught and when. Instead, all the content found in the process section is a guideline of the main points that should be addressed during a recruitment session...you can also take an entire different approach if you wish!) If you think you will not have the time to recruit any users at this time but are still interested in becoming a recruiter, you can still add your name to the list of recruiters but just fill in the "Status" parameter with "Not Available".
  • Co-Director: The current Director for the centre is me (Dom497). Another user that would be willing to help with some of the tasks would be helpful. Tasks include making sure recruiters are doing what they should be (teaching!), making sure all recruitments are archived correctly, updating pages as needed, answering any questions, and distributing the feedback form. If interested, please contact me (Dom497).
  • Nominators, please read this: If you are not interested in becoming a recruiter, you can still help. In some cases a nominator may have an issue with an "inexperienced" editor (the recruitee) reviewing one of their nominations. To minimize the chances of this happening, if you are fine with a recruitee reviewing one of your nominations under the supervision of the recruiter, please add your name to the list at the bottom of this page. By adding your name to this list, chances are that your nomination will be reviewed more quickly as the recruitee will be asked to choose a nomination from the list of nominators that are OK with them reviewing the article.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to seeing this program bring new reviewers to the Good article community and all the positive things it will bring along.

A message will be sent out to all recruiters regarding the date when the Recruitment Centre will open when it is determined. The message will also contain some further details to clarify things that may be a bit confusing.--Dom497 (talk)

New Updates & Messages For Active Participants in the Marvel Comics work group

  • Current message (25/1/2020)

Greetings to you all & a great weekend. I took the iniative to send this mass message to you all because I observed from the article on Elders of the Universe that certain key members of the Elders of the Universe have no article of theirs and most glaring is that of Gilpertpedon/The Runner. I believe subject has become notable enough for a stand alone article & it would be a great idea for someone in possession of a picture of the runner which is their own work (as to avoid image copyright violations) to begin the article. Then the rest of us contribute to the article’s development.Celestina007 (talk) 14:38, 25 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
