Irony
editNot to worry. It's ironic that there are more incorrect uses of "irony" in WIkipedia than there are correct uses. Or not :) - Nunh-huh 11:30, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
I've added a few general references to the Comet Lodge Cemetery article. I think these are enough to address your notability concern; I've removed the tag, but if you think there is still an issue, feel free to restore it. Quoting from the Heather MacIntosh article, "The graveyard, initially serving Georgetown when it was first created in the 1890s, is the final resting place for a number of early residents, some of whom were influential in the development of the city." - Jmabel | Talk 03:11, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the remarks on my page. Besides the references I added, if you follow up the Commons link on that page you will find quite a few photos. And if you do a web search, you will find quite a bit - including from people on both sides of certain disputes - but unfortunately mostly on blogs rather than anything citable. - Jmabel | Talk 09:27, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
Re Peter Donnelly
editYou're very welcome. I'm (at least partly) a gnome at heart. Rms125a@hotmail.com (talk) 18:18, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
Relationship
editHey, I clicked on your link at the Fawcett article and it doesn't lead to a news site. (I put "Farrah Fawcett" in the search bar that appears at the Dell page and it doesn't bring anything up.)
Fawcett's 1979 separation from Lee Majors was precipitated by her development of feelings for O'Neal, and the two began a relationship then. Was your edit because the two didn't live together as "Domestic partners" (as the section reads) until her divorce finally went through? If that's the case, I'd love to get a good ref for it, and if you've got one, I'd like to read it. Could you re-check the link and correct it there? Thanks, Abrazame (talk) 22:42, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
- Incidentally, I meant to indicate in my revert there that I recognize your edit was in good faith, so no hard feelings. Abrazame (talk) 22:45, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
- No problem on the change, weird about the link as I tested it prior to insertion. I made the change because there was a discrepancy between the info box (stated 1979) and actual article (1982) and went looking to see what was correct. I found a recent interview with Ryan O'Neal on MSNBC that cited the date 1982 and used that as my source. I will add my citation to the date 1982 following that claim in the article and leave 1979 in the box and trust you to read the article and decide for yourself. To be honest, I care less about me being right than the article not contradicting itself, it makes Wiki look bad. Thank you for contacting me about this, it is muchly appreciated.
Log In Problems
editI am having log in issues?
edit{{helpme}} About a month ago, for no apparent reason, as I had made no changes in my Wiki preferences or web browser options, whenever I tried to log in I would enter OneHappyHusky and my password, but the second I hit 'enter' my user name automatically and unprompted changed to onehappyhusky and I receive the error message:
Login error - There is no user by the name "onehappyhusky". User names are case sensitive. Please check your spelling, or use the link below to create a new user account.
I am able to log in using the Secure Server, however, despite clicking the box "Remember me for (up to) 30 Days" I am logged out whenever I navigate away from the site or shut down my computer.
I did seek help via a live chat with a representative, however, he had not previously heard of others experiencing my problems and suggested I clear my cache and verify my web browser it set to accept cookies. I did both and still continue to have these problems.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Laura

- It would be helpful to know which operation system (and version) you are using, which browser (and version) you are using, and any add-ons you have installed for that browser. You can get the operating system and browser information from http://www.thismachine.info/
- I can't think of anything in particular off-hand. Check if you perhaps saved your username and password for Wikipedia but the username was saved in all lowercase. —C45207 | Talk 09:28, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
- There doesn't seem to be anything in your monobook.js or vector.js Josh Parris 09:50, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
- I think that it is likely your browser has the incorrect username stored up somewhere. If it's Internet Explorer, you can clear such things under "Tools", "Internet Options", then the "Content" tab, and the "Autocomplete" button - you could clear the forms, if that won't cause you problems with other sites that you visit. In Firefox, it is under "Tools", "Clear private data". You may have another system that records form data; I will cancel this help request for now - please could you try to clear locally stored information, and if you still have problems, please use a further {{helpme}}.

- Thanks for letting me know that it's fixed! Chzz ► 18:30, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
Vito Rizutto
editHello, I thought I'd let you know that I reverted the edit you made to Nicolo Rizzuto, as Mr. Rizutto's son Vito has not been released from prison yet (his release is expected in 2012). Thanks - CETTALK 00:20, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
