The thing is... I don't mind edits... It's just you who is incapable of surviving criticism :) Rezo 16:20, 17 Nov 2004 (GMT)

1. But editing other articles in order to get an overall neutral and acceptable result is what a wiki is about. If you just want to show off without others eliminating errors -> Make a goddamn webpage on your own.

I will concede the second point though, although I might point out that it was Celdonia starting to throw insults around. Rezo 16:20, 17 Nov 2004 (GMT)

Thennat

Please try to avoid creating empty placeholder articles. Empty articles are harmful to NSwiki, as they have a tendency to confuse readers. Creating them is also pointless, as it doesn't result in any sort of "reservation" or "owning" the article title. -- Wilem Engelking 22:15, 11 Dec 2004 (GMT)

The thennat entry was a note to myself to get it going, and we actually had content until discussions stalled and we're waiting on the ACEPB CB proprietors to get onboard with the project. Moreover we're waiting on a few GUSTO projections to finish things off. I apologize if my stub of a placeholder annoys you but I hardly think it's "damaging the project." -- Galdago
There is a good reason why, in NSwiki, links to existing and non-existing articles look different - it saves the reader's time, as he can see immediately which articles are not yet written. Creating empty placeholders defeats this convenience. -- Wilem Engelking 14:23, 15 Dec 2004 (GMT)

Galdagan=Spanish?

Hope you don't mind, but I've rewritten completely the article about Spanish and took the liberty of adding Galdagan as a "widely regarded aperinian version of Spanish". I hope that's ok with you. If not, feel free to remove it from the article. Cheers.

--Hell Bovines

Okay, I changed the phrase. It now reads: "Galdago recognizes Galdagan as official language. Though a Spano-Italian amalgamation, the language is widely regarded to be the aperinian equivalent of Spanish." Is this ok with you? --Hell Bovines 05:10, 19 Dec 2004 (GMT)

Galdago (nation page)

In regards to your nation page: I have rendered the format of the previously titled "Introduction" section more conventional. You may want to create further sub-sections within the newly created "History" section, however if you feel even the slightest inclination not to, then ignore this last comment, and do as you wish. Yours sincerely, Rechze(talk) 15:00, 16 Dec 2004 (GMT)

It is really up to you, edits to your nation page really act more as suggestion that you can keep or discard. Especially in regard to nation pages, which I agree with you have a sense of belonging to their subject. Rechze(talk) 02:23, 19 Dec 2004 (GMT)

Please do not remove items from your User talk page. If you wish to clear it, please put the items in an archive, which is linked to from your user page. "

  • Archive rather than delete: When a talk page's content has become extremely large or the discussion of the issue in hand has simply died down and no one has a reasonable chance of adding to it. Then create a new page. (See Wikipedia:Wikipedia:How to start a page and Wikipedia:Wikipedia:How to archive a Talk page for details.) Place the page in a talk or wikipedia talk namespace. Give it an explanatory name. Often people simply add "archive" to the original name. Explain on the archive page where the text you plan to archive will come from and provide a link. Cut the relevant content from the original page and paste it into the new page. Replace the text on the original page with a link to the archive. An alternative is to summarise the discussion and provide a link to the version with the full text."

An example of an archive address, would be User_talk:Galdago/archive. Thank you, Rechze(talk) 09:38, 19 Dec 2004 (GMT)
