*Your comment [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:TTN#Farscape_Redirects here] is erroneous and wrong-headed. Are you suggesting that Wikipedia policies be ignored simply because, as a fan of the series, you like the episode articles?

:Everything eventually leads back to our policies and guidelines, and none of the complaints even come close to being based from their standpoints. Do not even pretend that you cannot improve the articles because of me. You could easily work in a sandbox, or just apply the sources and go from there. As I said, you only need the level of the first episode, which would take ten minutes if it is easy as you claim. I suggest that you head over to TV.com and Wikia if you would like to continue to write about the episodes. [[User:TTN|TTN]] 19:30, 14 November 2007 (UTC) |

Farscape
Hey, thanks for pitching in with the Farscape synopsis! Was wondering when we would get some folks to help out with those so it's much appreciated. Considering the sheer volumn of work needed, don't worry about the lack of wiki links - I'm sure some busy body will eventually put them in. Heck, none of the episode articles existed a month ago until I created them LOL Welcome aboard. RoyBatty42 02:17, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Organizing members list on Myanmar Wikiproject
Hello! Would you like to have your say on how the members list on the Myanmar Wikiproject should be organized? You can participate here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Myanmar (Burma)/Members. Thanks and good day. --Hintha 02:25, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry to see you leave, the project hasn't always been like this. Someday it won't be. :( You'll be welcome back anytime. Chris 05:13, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
- I also hope you will wish to rejoin us soon at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Myanmar (Burma). I appreciated your contributions.SimonBillenness 07:13, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Inle lake leg rowing
Do you have a ref on the weeds being origin of leg rowing? Women navigate sitting down in hyacinth choked channels without much problem. I have heard other reasons for stand up rowing, the reason not being weeds, but about fishing, which is practiced mostly by men, and the two types of nets that they use have to be manipulated standing. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kanbawsa (talk • contribs) 03:12, 25 February 2007 (UTC).
I'm confused
Is there any reason you removed my apology regarding the edits I made to The Langoliers? Typically, removing content from other users on your talk page is frowned upon by the Wikipedia community. Sarc37 16:50, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- Re:your message. Oh, sorry about that. Like I said, I was confused. I apologize again. :) Sarc37 17:20, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- No need to apologize!QuizzicalBee 18:22, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Category change on COCP article
I'm not sure why you recently added combined oral contraceptive pill to Category:Human reproduction. I've proposed removing it (along with a number of other articles) at Category talk:Human reproduction. I would appreciate any comments you may have. Lyrl Talk C 15:14, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
- I responded at Category talk:Human reproduction. Lyrl Talk C 18:09, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Farscape
Saw that you were doing to some work on the synopsis of first season Farscape episodes. Always welcome, but the area that really needs attention are the later seasons, many don't have any last time I looked after creating them. Not sure how you came to the episodes, but there is a page for List of Farscape episodes if you wanted a jumping off point. RoyBatty42 10:55, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi. I've been doing the later seasons, but couldn't remember where I stopped, so I started at the beginning with the thought of editing what I've already done, but then got sidetracked by editing some of the earlier ones that I didn't do. I'll make my way to the later ones, shortly. The real question is, how long is too long for each synopsis? :-) QuizzicalBee 14:32, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
- Personally, I feel that each synopsis should only run about 4 or 5 SHORT paragraphs, each covering the "acts" of the episode. The links at the bottom, especially for Farscapeworld.com, can usually give someone more in depth episode information. RoyBatty42 23:48, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Another thing to keep an eye out for if you can: David Kemper's wikilinks. Seems there is a drummer named David Kemper. Hence, all the old entries on Farscape related pages that are presently [[David Kemper]] need to be replaced with [[David Kemper (writer)|David Kemper]] so it is article, which I had to create. RoyBatty42 22:00, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
I wish I had seen the unanswered questions sections earlier and could have warned you off. Something like that falls under heading Wikipedia:No original research and it seems that someone has already noticed it and has been blanking it out. Sorry, I know how frustrating it is to watch material get dumped (I'm currently in a debate about something I put up for an article that a admin is calling copyright violation). The only way you could get something like that up, of course, is to find a site that also lists them. You can check at farscapeworld.com (which is actually run by a friend of mine), snurcher's guide or the like. But on the other hand, it's still debatable whether something like that is encyclopedic. PS - Going to the Scaper Con next November? RoyBatty42 17:30, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
FYI - it is supposed to be the last one they will put on and certainly the last they will get so many of the stars for, it you are into that sort of thing. A friend who I turned on to Farscape last year lives only a mile from the convention center. RoyBatty42 18:50, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Unending
Hello... thanks for adding the notes re: actor/character motivation to "Unending". You may have noticed that I've added citation requests. Please don't interpret it as a challenge of the material's accuracy; instead, I think that your edit adds useful out-of-universe information to the article. I'd like to see citations so that the text doesn't get deleted by someone in the future. Thanks again. --Ckatzchatspy 03:00, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
An Award
Congratulations! You are hereby awarded the NightFalcon’s award for having a “Z” in your name while at the same time managing to do lots of great work here on Wikipedia! Feel free to give it to anyone else who is doing lots of good work while still having a “Z” in their name! NightFalcon90909 |
Vincent Chin
Dude, do you have a REAL source for what you're saying when you get that far off NPOV? Cite your source or remove your comments. I'm putting too much serious work on the page to have it vandalized by some ranter. There are severe contradictions between the court record and the Asian American articles (none has ever mentioned the 1989 hearing) and you're not helping! MMetro 21:29, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for showing me my way around these talk pages. Not sure how to keep a thread coherent, but a little bit of trivia for the next time you do see the film. Comparing my notes of the shot travelling down Woodward with old city directories, I found that Vincent grew up next to the KFC that seen in the movie. That's all gone, now, but the McDonald's became a Coney Island-- the planters and phone booth are still there. I'll try to get pictures put up, sometime. MMetro 11:08, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
Farscape
No problem. It feels like all I have to do is sit back and keep hitting enter :P. Matthew 17:58, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Wiley Protocol
I noticed that you made some edits to this article a while back. Because I'm COI with Wiley, I've agreed not to edit, only discuss, but our only editor, WLU, seems to be COI too and I'm not getting anywhere with him. Would you consider lending a hand to this article? It needs it. By the way, I grew up in Pennsylvania. Neil Raden 04:33, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Neil. I don't know where your talk page is, so I am replying on my own talk page. I don't know enough about the Wiley Protocol to edit it. My edits were mainly pretty minor.QuizzicalBee 02:22, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Sebacean
A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Sebacean, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. Gavin Collins 20:50, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Farscape episodes
Please do not bring those back until it is shown that they can reach even as far as the first episode's condition. The first episode barely establishes notability as it is, so you're going to have to put in some work for the non-special episodes to become decent. As for consensus, only WP:ILIKEIT comments have been given for reasons to keep, so consensus is found in policies and guidelines. TTN 18:22, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
