==VANDALISM SECTION -- PLEASE PLACE YOUR VANDALISM BELOW== Dioch~ Happy new year, its not just you, complexes and domestic restraints run deep. I do not mind spreading the message that truth has a value, but whilst Wikipedia usurps my own litarary devices in this aim, I am left naked, shivering more chatter, no it is not my drug, but I will grant you if you dont mind being prostrate the licence to infuriate my unborn biographers. I have not yet banked profit by my words, so I guess a little humility in vocabualry ok. No spell checker, I own two, but need the practice. My hunger is aside from finding the Holbourn/Pett/Dudley link establshing one last family. I wish it were in Cymru, yet Kent holds me to this day for at least the last 7 years, before I returned from Bristol. I have travelled wide across the UK, Europe and Soviet Union, but hold one vision, an anachronism, if you please... white witch of Norway in the south of France?..Cathar Viking cross, being your umble servant... UK still OK, Norway home. PS I am not back, I am not dixieladye, and it wont get any beter: faedra, all the best.... (I knew she'd take the bait. User:Deb 12:32, 1 Jan 2005 (UTC)) Hey Rox's Mum, I am a fellow wikipedia addict. Love Ben

Hello there, Welcome, newcomers to the 'pedia! I hope you like the place and decide to wikipedians. If you need any questions answered about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or drop me a user talk:maveric149. BTW, you have been pretty [http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/special:contributions&theuser=Deb busy] with some British history artilces - Good work! Cheers! --user:maveric149 Hi Deb, just a note to say I'm quite chuffed about how well the Royal naming rules stuff is working. I have come across a few new 'royal' pages and it seems to to be working a dream, with everything fitting it well and names and titles fitting the one clear pattern. The two of us should patt each other on the back for a job well done. (And of course, immediately having written this, I'll find some monstrous problem cropping up! Hopefully not. ''Slán leat'' (gaelic for 'goodbye to you' ) User:Jtdirl 20:29 Feb 11, 2003 (UTC) Yeah. To think I have not been called a 'phoney', an 'asshole' etc in ''days''. I'm in mourning for DW. (But not ''too'' much!) But I still have the delight of having Two16 to hurl insults about and throw tantrums. I think the new royal names consensus will work. So far ''no-one'' has rejected the idea, or even had major doubts, just qualifications or 'what ifs?' I have been going through some articles, adopting them to fit the rules. User:Jtdirl 22:29 Feb 1, 2003 (UTC)
==Thank for improving my English== Hi Deb I'm hoping someone to correct the formular, "English" is now good there due to your modification, but it may be deleted soon since the formular was wrong ! Thank you so much again. Trieu ==Diwrnod Da!== Sorry if it seems I have overlooked your helpful comments, I appreciate the feedback from the wikicommunity, and have noted your work on my items in the history logs. I futher note you have a work in print. I need to be a little more guarded about copyright problems that may arise from my contributions here. I am selectivly editing my items to remove any personalised references, and will have to remove some content. If objections to this process are raised I may object that my own copyright has been infringed, if the good wikifairy can not help. Please feel free to comment on anything you feel is a must for reworking. All the best, and diolch. User:Faedra 10:52, 22 Jun 2004 (UTC) ---- See also User:Deb/Talk archive. == ideas? == I notice that you reguarly edit articles on opera topics and wondered whether you had any suggestions for: Wikipedia:WikiProject Opera. TIA. -- User:Viajero 09:53, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC) ==Thanks== Deb, I've seen your commentary in several places here and there recently, and I just wanted to thank you for the time you take to make Wikipedia a kinder and more helpful place. I'm sure you don't get enough appreciation for it, and it occurred to me that perhaps a very brief note would be welcome. Thanks again and please do keep up the excellent work, User:Jwrosenzweig 17:46, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC) ==Anne Kirkbride== Thanks for the addition! I didn't know her voice was due to the smoking. It had been like that for as long as I remember. Even on the flashbacks, when she was in love with Mike and Ken found out, her voice was like that, and she couldn't have even been 30 yet. Anyway, thanks again! :D User:TheCustomOfLife 18:36, Jun 26, 2004 (UTC) :I completely forgot about that! Okay, added. User:TheCustomOfLife 18:47, Jun 26, 2004 (UTC) Question: Was Jerry Booth one of Deirdre's boyfriends? I know he wanted to date her and that he had bad luck with her and Mavis. Then the actor died. User:TheCustomOfLife 21:15, Jun 26, 2004 (UTC) :Deirdre worked for Len after Ray left the country, because Len and Ray were in a business venture at the time, and it put both Deirdre and Len in a weird position to have him skip off to Holland. User:TheCustomOfLife 16:25, Jun 27, 2004 (UTC) Nah, I'm pretty sure she worked there because of Ray. Originally, Deirdre was supposed to marry Billy Walker but the actor left the country (ironic, eh?). They switched all the storylines rather abruptly so she married Ray. User:TheCustomOfLife 16:31, Jun 27, 2004 (UTC) :I only started watching in 1995. My grandmother is from Birkenhead, and her friends knew a lot about the show so I got interested. Then, four years ago, CBC went digital and I haven't seen it since. I bought the DVDs and the books (40 Years, the Corrie novels), though. User:TheCustomOfLife 16:38, Jun 27, 2004 (UTC) ---- == Gary Pullman == I can usually find books and authors rather easily, using web based catalogs of national libraries such as the Library of Congress, and of course commercial resources such as Amazon (US but also in other countries) in order to add some basic bibliographical info (place of publication, publisher, date of publication, ISBN and sometimes other elements when olde books are involved) to any article about a book. But this time I was stumped by "Gary Pullman". Are you sure it is the correct spelling for his name? User:AlainV 06:54, 1 Jul 2004 (UTC) == Monica Bellucci == I'm a little confused. You've made an edit to a page, where you changed Italian actors and actresses to Italian actors and actresses. Er, why? :o) — User:OwenBlacker 20:17, Jul 9, 2004 (UTC) : Sorry it's taken me so long to reply to your question on Monica Bellucci - I was away on holiday. I changed it so that she would be listed under "B" instead of "M". User:Deb 10:07, 18 Jul 2004 (UTC) :: Aaaah, now I understand! Thanks for letting me know. Sorry about ''my'' delay; I've been avoiding Wikipedia whilst I concentrated on writing [http://www.stand.org.uk/StandEvidenceToHomeOfficeOnDraftBill.doc a response to the Home Office's ID card propsals] for [http://www.stand.org.uk Stand.org.uk], which has taken ''all'' my not-work time over the last fortnight. Thanks again for the clarification. — User:OwenBlacker 21:48, Jul 20, 2004 (UTC) == Hedd Wyn == Do you think it would be better if Hedd Wyn was classified among the Hs in his categories, rather than the Ws? It's not as if "Hedd Wyn" is a forename-surname pair, after all. User:Marnanel 03:02, 15 Jul 2004 (UTC) == user page unprotected == I have unprotected your user page along with several other user pages that do not have a history of vandalism. Wikipedia:Protected page Wikipedia talk:protected page does not permit user pages to be protected unless a history of vandalism justifies protection. User:UninvitedCompany 20:00, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC) :You're mistaken on both counts. My user page ''has'' previously been amended by other users without my consent. And there is no policy which says that user pages cannot be protected; the policy states only that user ''talk'' pages should not be protected. User:Deb 20:06, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC) == Thanks == Hi Deb, Thanks for tweaking the Farey piece. As an editor in my day job I know its a thankless task. Meanwhile I have e-mailed the URL of your book review site to the publisher I am involved with. We have a number of Welsh-interest non-fiction books in the list. User:Apwoolrich 17:58, 24 Jul 2004 (UTC) :Thanks for yours. Its good to know there are others interested in the same things. I have just emailed a contact at the DNB office to ask if the orginal DNB will be put on line in public domain once the Oxford DNB comes out in September. The new work has both the old text and the updated stuff together, so users can compare and contrast. I hope this will not mean they will be able to get another 73 years copyright on the original stuff. The CD of the DNB makes its easy to get a text on a PC, and I would have thought everything pre 1923 is fair game for further use. The new one is available for a fee of course, which is quite steep for the independent scholar. :My local library has a copy of the microfiche ''British Biographical Index'' and its easy to get printouts of individual pages, once on paper but now in PDF format. :I am currently rejigging the layout of the Encyclopadias page to make it more logical and be the means for adding stuff about C19 ones I know about. Hopefully others will be able to slot more in. I feel the Dictionary page should be ordered in the same sort of format. The Architecture page is very similar to what I have done. The only problem I am having is that for every new encyclopaedia entry, I generate several pages about personalitis for which there are no articles. And then have to write them!
Thank you for cleaning up Roger Dudley who is a personage of great interest to many, but who is difficult to write about due to the lack of corroborating facts. I have fixed the link to his father Henry Sutton Dudley, and re instated the para: Yet it was in 1586, four years earlier, that the Reverend Cotton Mather of Boston wrote: "Thomas Dudley's father was Captain Roger Dudley, -- slain in the wars, when -- his son, and one only daughter were very young". This is important to indicate that some historical inaccuracy seems to exist, and has been repeated on the page Thomas Dudley, a good article by another user. User:Faedra ==Ena== I can't wait until I can get screenshots from my DVDs. I have a shot from when the Corrie cast went to Australia in 1966, and Violet Carson was wearing the most exquisite hairdo. Very pretty and very different from Ena. Thanks for the cleanup on the articles! User:TheCustomOfLife 15:10, Jul 29, 2004 (UTC) :That would be nice to see. I'm jealous. And yeah, Ken Barlow would be more boring. :There are nice little snippets of interviews from the Australia trip, and Doris Speed seems to have the same stick up her bum that Annie Walker did. Arthur Leslie seems to be such a nice man. Patricia Phoenix had a nice laugh. But that hairdo on Violet Carson! I don't want to say it was like a '60s beehive, but it was very high, and she was very well made-up. But then they went to shots of the motorcade driving through Adelaide, I think it was, and she was in hairnet and jacket costume. User:TheCustomOfLife 16:55, Jul 29, 2004 (UTC) ::I started a stub on Margot Bryant but couldn't write much. Do you have anything about Margot the person? I already wrote something on Minnie Caldwell. User:TheCustomOfLife 19:17, Jul 29, 2004 (UTC) == Re Swansea article == Hi, is my memory failing me, or have my notes in Talk:Swansea, regarding the inclusion of Swansea Insitute students in the student population, been deleted? I think my name would have been down as either Tom or Pomegranate. :It doesn't seem like there have been any edits to that page since my last one in March 2004 (see history page), so maybe your comment was on the talk page for some other related article. It's not easy to reply to you, because you don't seem to have a user name, so I have to hope you read this. User:Deb 11:38, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC) Don't worry, I've been checking back regularly...I figured it out, I was confusing the discussion page with the history page, where I had noted my addition. Time-wasting newbie error, apologies. User: Pomegranate 17:40, 31 Jul 2004 (UTC) Hi!!! Nice to received from you message. Honestly it is my username, my real name is Veronika. But I am glad that my user name is the same as your real:-))) Nice to meet you anyway. --User:Debora 16:24, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC) == Hello Deborah == Thanks for cleaning up my it on Audrey Munson.

We must share a common interst in the history of the bods Maclellan, Thanks for jumping in at the deep end again! Work is ongoing and I will try to fit the jigsaw together. At least I know its not time waisted, and someone out their is trying to work it out as well! Cheers, Im a bit out of my depth with these lads, so your patience will be appreciated.... do keep watching the Maclellan pages.. All the best User:Faedra == Transportee(s) == N Transportees; 04:44:59 . . Deb (Talk) (Transportees moved to Transportee) Thanks. User:Orthogonal 10:01, 1 Aug 2004 (UTC) == Nesebâr == No offence taken. However, I began a rewrite of the article on this town at Nesebâr because I believe that is the correct transcription from the Bulgarian Cyrilic alphabet, even if it only gets 1000 Google hits. Nessebur which you give as the most common English spelling only gets 6000 as opposed to Nessebar with 60,000, which is currently a redirect. The Bulgarian 'ъ' is a schwa which corresponds roughly to the 'a' in English 'about' or 'o' in 'harmony', and is usually transcribed as 'â'. Nesebâr isn't the most common spelling encountered in English language tourist literature because the authors of such material are just looking for a simple phonetic representation, which either an 'a' or a 'u', along with a double 's' do well. If we are striving for encyclopedic accuracy though we should have Nesebâr as the main article with common spellings as redirects. This is also the spelling I encountered most on signs and bus timetables in the area itself. — User:Trilobite 16:58, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC) ==Betty Driver== I figured that I wanted to have a bit of information on Betty Turpin in Betty Driver (actress's range), but I wanted to go more in-depth on the character herself in Betty Turpin, with a redirect at Betty Williams as necessary. Can you start Betty Turpin for me? You seem to know more about Corrie than I do. User:TheCustomOfLife 01:43, Aug 5, 2004 (UTC) ==Music, music, music== Hi Deb Thanks for your note. You have done great work in standardising the format of the Year in Music pages (among all your other great work). I would like to hear your thoughts on how various cross-linking pages should work. If we list Music-Lyric-Book credits in the "Musical theater" section of each Year in Music should we repeat them in the List of Musicals page? My own thoughts are that the List of Musicals might serve as a starting page e.g. The Maid of the Mountains London 1917, Broadway 1918, London revival 1921, London revival 1930, London revival 1942, London revival 1971. The year would link to the Year In Music page where the credits for film or stage productions could be found. Cheers John Rogers I think you are correct. The title of a musical is the best starting point. But many entries would be classified as stubs. Should we forget the list of musicals and years in musicals and create individual pages regardless? Cheers John Rogers ==Anne Kirkbride== I've added pictures to Anne Kirkbride, among others. Check the other Corrie-related pages to see the screencaps I've finally been allowed to procure, thanks to my new computer! User:TheCustomOfLife 16:31, Aug 8, 2004 (UTC) :Well, since they were released in the United States, I am allowed to make fair use screencaptures of the material. I don't think it works the same way in Britain, but the material I have was legitimately released for purchase in America. :I've also added lots of captures from ''Another World'', which were aired on SOAPnet. User:TheCustomOfLife 17:39, Aug 8, 2004 (UTC) == How Do You? == Deb, You had a kind word for my attempt at a disambig page for the two John McLean's--the one who was the Supreme Court justice is from my hometown. How do you put the comments like your "Nice try" that show up on the history page? Ave! User:PedanticallySpeaking 18:17, 11 Aug 2004 (UTC) == My User Name == Deb, Thanks for the help. My user name is the name of my award-winning column in my high school newspaper. My fellow students never seemed able to pronounce it, however, adding an extra "n" into it, making it "Pendantically," as if it were a jewelry column. Ave! User:PedanticallySpeaking 15:25, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC) == Another Question == I was contemplating what to put up on my profile page. I'm thinking most of it will be listing my interests (U.S. Supreme Court, movies and television, Ohio history, among others). Glad to know someone is interested in me. Another question for you. Is there an easy way to generate the vertical bar? I've been cutting and pasting it in since the way I remembered from my days using DOS and BASICA of using alternate and typing in the ASCII code number doesn't seem to work anymore. Ave atque vale! User:PedanticallySpeaking 13:13, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC) == Vertical Bar == I posted a question on the help section and Meelar replied. It's on the backslash key just above "enter." On mine, that looks like an elongated "colon" but sure enough shift-backslash produces the vertical bar. Thanks for your help. Ave! User:PedanticallySpeaking 17:30, Aug 13, 2004 (UTC) == Chuvashs == Hi! Chuvashs are the nation, so using Chuvashs for article name is more logical. Why you deleted items about Tatars, Islam and Miggle Ages? --User:Untifler 12:27, 25 Aug 2004 (UTC) == Wallace Breem == Saw from your edit comment on Eagle in the Snow that you have met Wallace Breem. I wish I had! I am collecting some biographical notes about him at: http://www.cary.demon.co.uk/breem/ (from which I distilled the Wikipedia Wallace Breem entry) – anything you can add/correct/suggest for the notes would be very welcome! User:Mfc 11:58, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC) OK, thanks anyway :-) (skeleton :-)) User:Mfc == List of architects == Hi Deb. I noticed you removed a number of architectural firms from the List of architects citing "removing refs to computer architecture" [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=List_of_architects&diff=5551980&oldid=5541366]. In fact, these are true architectural firms and not related to Computer architecture. If there has been an error, I am going to reverse the modification. --User:Junesix 04:10, Sep 1, 2004 (UTC) *Hi Deb. Thanks for the comment. Maybe something like a separate List of architecture firms would be appropriate? --User:Junesix 15:33, Sep 1, 2004 (UTC) ==Reverse sexism== Good evening, Deb. I always, always appreciate that I don't know how busy people on Wikipedia may be, but if you have the time, it would be great if you could describe your more specific objections to having an article on the concept "reverse sexism". I mean, I suppose you don't just object to the state of the article when you listed it (and of course not to the absurd stub it has recently become, courtesy of Anthony), but to having an article at all? I'm not sure how I feel about that. I agree that "reverse sexism" is an illogical concept, and frequently an abusive one, but well, then, don't you think there should be an article anlysing/unmasking it? I've voted Neutral about deleting it, and I've undertaken to clean it up some. (And also, having wasted people's time by being drawn into an unprofitable argument with Anthony, I've vowed to shut up.) But I keep feeling that you probably had more reasons than you expressed, and that they might change my mind for me. (Maybe you thought they were obvious. :-)) Anyway, if you do have the time and the inclination, a bit more input from you in the discussion would be very welcome. Best wishes, User:Bishonen 22:20, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC) == Vandalism == Someone with IP 213.76.29.20 keeps deleting the Linux and Unix articles. User:Daviis == Administrator status == I was looking at the voting for administrator status and contemplated nominating myself but thought before I did so I should get someone else's opinion about whether I've made enough of a contribution to be worthy of the designation. Any thought? Ave! User:PedanticallySpeaking 19:36, Sep 20, 2004 (UTC) My dear Deb,
One of the frustrations in writing these articles is how rarely I get any feedback on them. Even one I put up on peer review got only a single comment. If I put myself forward for administrator, perhaps then I could find out if anyone's reading my stuff and whether its any good. So I would be most grateful for a nomination. Ave atque vale! User:66.213.119.98 19:46, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC) :*That last comment was me, somehow I got logged out. User:PedanticallySpeaking 19:47, Sep 20, 2004 (UTC) So no news is good news, eh? Well, I'd still be grateful for the nomination. Ave atque vale! User:PedanticallySpeaking 19:58, Sep 20, 2004 (UTC) ==Wilson, Keppel and Betty== Hi, Wilson, Keppel and Betty has been on my to do list for a while.

I've posted an explanation of frequent edits on Wikipedia:Requests for adminship. Ave! User:PedanticallySpeaking 18:40, Sep 22, 2004 (UTC) == Wales Meets Ohio == My dear Deb:
When I saw you were from Wales, I'd meant to drop you a note about the British food store we have right here in Ohio of all places. The proprietor is a nice fellow from Cwmgwrach, Wales, which I managed to find on my A-Z road atlas, has a store in Huber Heights, Ohio, just north of Dayton. I learned about the store because I'm a big fan of As Time Goes By, which the local PBS station runs, and he advertises on the show. He's got a site: [http://www.wisechoiceuk.com]. When I was in his store one question I asked was how to say "Plaid Cmyru", which I encountered from watching Prime Minister's Questions on C-SPAN; that was one of several things I learned from my visit to his shop. Ave atque vale! User:PedanticallySpeaking 21:06, Sep 23, 2004 (UTC) == NPOV: Drum {and | &} bugle corps == Hi Deb: You NPOV'd Drum & bugle corps a few days ago for a contributor. Unfortunately the page is a Frankenstein edit... Drum and bugle corps existed previously with significantly different content, and introduces quite a nasty disagreement in views. I hope to resolve this tomorrow by some redirection, renaming and disambiguation, if you could pass your eye over Drum and bugle corps and the two disambig articles tomorrow (Wed 29/9) evening once I've dealt with them tomorrow for NPOV going ''both'' ways, I'd appreciate! Best wishes, and thanks in advance. User:MattJ 23:27, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC) Due to "circumstances beyond my control" -- didn't get to do the edit. I hate servers crashing. :-( It'll happen in the next few days I guess. Thanks for the response. User:62.255.64.5 21:37, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC) == A Second Look == Deb,
After much tribulation--this computer and the Wikipedia servers kept crashing--I've finished the article on the Model State Emergency Health Powers Act. It has a good bibliography and many web-links for more information. I wonder if you could cast an eye over it and see what you think. Ave atque vale! User:PedanticallySpeaking 16:27, Sep 30, 2004 (UTC) == Official invitation == Hi! This is a message to let you know that there is now a UK-specific Wikipedia community page at Wikipedia:UK wikipedians' notice board. It would be great if you could come and get involved! -- User:Francs2000 | User talk:Francs2000 22:58, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC) == recent speedy deletion == Your deletion of Paula Kelly doesn't seem to conform to the WP:CSD. The information is factual, and verifiable. If you question its inclusion, you need to follow up with a Wikipedia:Votes for deletion submission. Other recent deletions seem questionable as well. You might want to brush up on the guidelines, to avoid any problems. -- User:Netoholic User talk:Netoholic 20:44, 2004 Oct 3 (UTC) :Looking at the Special:Whatlinkshere/Paula Kelly should be enough to show not only the relevance and context for the article, but also offers a way to fix the "offending" terms (see Paula Kelly). Keep in mind that there are very specific definitions for CSDs, which is why inclusion debates go to VFD. Please keep that in mind when evaluating future deletions. Thanks for talking. -- User:Netoholic User talk:Netoholic 21:23, 2004 Oct 3 (UTC) ==On Madame de Lafayette== Hi. Firstly I must thank you for reverting some changes on Madame de La Fayette, an article which I wrote and which I have no idea there was a duplicate article. After realizing that the existing article was almost ''ad verbatim'' taken from the 1911 Encyclopedia Brittanica, I think I have to make a certain request concerning the article. Is it possible to excise the 1911 EB extracts from the article and revert completely back to my article? Despite the high claims of Wikipedia on the 1911 EB I must admit I'm no total fan of the edition, especially the arch language and the sometimes POV tone used (after all it's written nearly 1 century ago). I also think it much better for Wikipedia's repute not to rely to much on past EB, despite its copyright having expired. I have gone through remaining and I must say I don't agree with a lot of them. For instance: :After the birth of her two sons her husband disappeared so effectually that it was long supposed that he died about 1660, though he really lived until 1683. is problematic (supposed to be dead by who?). What does "contracted an intimacy" mean, in 21st century language? And the remaining criticism is outdated (the readings offered are all late 19th century) and often POV. I'm certainly not of the idea of "more is better" always in Wikipedia. What do you think? User:Mandel 22:08, Oct 3, 2004 (UTC) ==Soap couple history article== While they would not be deemed a supercouple per se, I would really love to write a Ken and Deirdre Barlow article on par with what I wrote in Cliff and Nina Warner. Would you help me to start it? User:TheCustomOfLife 15:59, Oct 6, 2004 (UTC) :But this is different...this would focus on the two together. User:TheCustomOfLife 21:56, Oct 6, 2004 (UTC) At the very least, could you take a stab at summarizing the Ken/Deirdre/Mike triangle under "most controversial storylines" in the Corrie article?

User:MirvUser talk:Mirv Special:Emailuser/Mirv 22:17, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC) ::It means "God save the Queen." The literal translation is; Dio = God, vi = you Salve = save, and Regina = Queen.

I decided to unprotect because the history shows that your page has ''never'' actually been vandalized. I think any isolated instances can be reverted without serious harm; if vandalism does become a serious problem for you in the future, perhaps we could reconsider the question. --User:Michael Snow 22:32, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC) :As I've said on the Protection page Talk page, it's nobody else's business whether my pages are protected or not.

Since you insist on having your user page protected, I have reprotected it now, and hopefully we can leave it that way pending a resolution to the general question. I still do not see any vandalism in its history, only a couple messages that were erroneously left on the user page rather than your user talk page.

I know it's the same person because the vandalism's often identical, even though it comes from different IP addresses. Checking up on the address' activities, there were vandal attacks over a period of about 6 months and hardly any (if any) good edits.

Some time ago I wrote an article entitled "Leonora". You moved it to Leonora, Western Australia and made Leonora a disambiguation page. However your entry "Leonora is a girl's name" will never have a link and could be argued against from the "wikipedia is not a dictionary" point of view; and your link to "original name of, and name of character from, Fidelio" appears to be incorrect, since the article on Fidelio refers only to "Leonore" not "Leonora". I left it as a disambig page for a couple of weeks to see if any other links got added, but they haven't. I have now converted Leonora into a redirect to the Leonora, Western Australia. User:Drew Devereux 02:20, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC) ---- My comment that it will "never have a link" was poorly expressed. What I meant was that Wikipedia does not, and is unlikely ever to, have an article on Leonora in the sense of a girl's name; therefore the entry "Leonora is a girls' name" will never be wikified to point to an article. Granted Leonora, Western Australia is a very minor and largely unknown town, but I still find it a little difficult to accept that people who search for "Leonora" on Wikipedia are more likely to have have intended "Leonore" than what they actually typed. And regardless of their intentions, "... Fidelio, in which the heroine is named Leonora" is a false statement. Since I'm pretty new around here, I'll leave the final decision to you. If you revert to a disambig page, I won't argue. But if you do revert, I think the Leonore/Leonora issue should be addressed. Something like "The name ''Leonora'' may be confused with ''Leonore'', the original title of Beethoven's opera, Fidelio" would do the job.

I recognize that you are a prolific contributer yourself, but I was hoping that you might translate some of my articals for me. Or maybe direct me to someone who might like to translate? Arwel Perry offered yorself as someone who might be able to assit me... or know someone who would want to increase the Welsh Wikipedia by translating good articals. Though I do not yet know Welsh enough to write in it, I do want to contribute to Welsh Wikipedia, even if indirectly. Any help you might be able to give will be greatly appreciated! User:Drachenfyre ==Denholm Elliott== Hi, Deb. Way back in Jan 2003 you wrote the initial Denholm Elliott article. The claim that he was gay is now being debated, so I was wondering if you could remember where you got this info from? Thanks! User:Jihg 08:47, Apr 6, 2005 (UTC) ==65.39.159.10== Thank you for blocking 65.39.159.10. Great help --User:Bucephalus 17:43, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC) :Oh dear, these "naming conventions"! Thanks anyway User:Peter Shearan 05:25, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC) == El Salon Mexico; == My apologies — I didn't realise that I'd overridden your edits. The History shows that we were three minutes apart, so I don't see how it could have been an edit conflict, yet I was completely unaware of what you'd done. User:Mel Etitis (Μελ_Ετητης)">User talk:Mel Etitis 18:21, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC) ==Holman Fred Stephens== Hello Deb In much the same vein as one of the comments above I cannot quite see why you moved the article entitled Colonel H.F. Stephens to Holman Fred Stephens. As a fan of Col Stephens (and although I knew his full names) I know he would never be recognised as such within the context of his railways (see Colonel Stephens Railways article). In fact his whole life was tied up with "his" railways, and I was about to merge his name with the much longer (and in some cases inaccurate!) article on them when I came across your redirect. Indeed, if the new article were re-entitled Colonel Stephens and his railways it would make much more logical sense: we could then include his full name within the biographical details which need doing anyway. User:Peter Shearan 12:17, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Chocolate chips == I'd be happy to feature this in DYK, but it's still stubby. Could you please expand it first? User:MacGyverMagic|User talk:MacGyverMagic 11:48, Apr 13, 2005 (UTC) ==MJ Coldwell== Deb, why did you move this article from Major James Coldwell to James Coldwell? As the article says, he was commonly known as MJ, not James. User:Ground Zero 21:15, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC) :Thanks muchly. But don't be so hard on yourself, being a Corrie fan makes you alright in my books. User:Ground Zero 21:21, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC) ==Hello, yourself== Thanks for the note. I've had a wiki account for months and months and months, but um, it's only now that I have dared make a real live edit to a page that is not a sandbox :) User:Telsa 17:07, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC) And yes, that's me (wince). Haven't touched that page though. Whilst I know you're there, can I ask a quick question? I have just got side-tracked following links, and ended up reading an argument about "frequent edits", which some people seem to consider a bad thing. Is what I have been doing to the Swansea page (a series of changes one/a group at a time) a bad thing? I have read about 20 pages on wikipedia policy and almost-policy today trying to find out, but I can't find anything about it. I'm not trying to get my edit count up; it's just old habit so that if any single change is a problem, it can be removed singly. Erm. Only perhaps wikipedia doesn't work that way? User:Telsa 17:30, 1 May 2005 (UTC) Phew, thanks! Ymlaen, 'te, and onto the further splendours of Swansea... User:Telsa 17:44, 1 May 2005 (UTC) == Hi Deb! == Hey, Long time no see. I hadn't seen you around. I was worried you had gone. Don't know how long I'll be on, but I have been bitten by the wikipedia bug and 'tis a hard bug to shed! Hopefully I'll be around for the long haul. I am already getting my teeth into it. Even spending 'all nighters' :( I was working last night on Papal Tiara til the wee hours. BTW I've nominated it for as a featured article candidate. I'd welcome your views. So what have you been up to? I've realised that kicking wikipedia is like kicking smoking. I haven't the willpower to do both!!! Lots of love, Fear''ÉIREANN''">User:Jtdirl 19:12, 2 May 2005 (UTC) == Possible impostor == I've been doing some impostor hunting lately, seeing as how we've had a rash of them lately and all, and you got the following hits: . Of course, this may be nothing, but I thought I would let you know. – User:ClockworkSoulUser talk:ClockworkSoul 04:43, 11 May 2005 (UTC) == Quick advice? == Hey, I want to make a major proposal — to replace AD/BC with CE/BCE. I am not asking if you agree (though of course I appreciate your views) but I wonder if you have any idea how I should make this proposal? There has been a long debate on the Jesus page, and my explanation for my proposal is very very long. It affects many pages, not just Jesus. And my proposal is I think too long to put on all the relevant talk pages. Is there any convention? Thanks, User:Slrubenstein | User talk:Slrubenstein 20:54, 15 May 2005 (UTC) == User:Bastard on Wheels == Please block. User:Sjakkalle 12:42, 26 May 2005 (UTC) == Removal of blank category only pages. == I disagreed with your "''It's not a good idea to create pages consisting of a template and no content. These will be deleted.''". I think it is a good idea, as the incomplete page then appears in more places and thus more people will see it and increase the chance of people editing. User:Blob 15:21, 28 May 2005 (UTC) ==Misspelling and Miscategorization of Adolph Wagner== To place the entry for Adolph Wagner under Adolf is certainly wrong, it is ill-advised and makes research more difficult; I wonder why it was done, and apparently without checking the facts? The German "ph" in names does not mutate into, or is ever transliterated into, "f", in proper names. It is not a general rule, neither in English nor in Wikipedia (I don't see an entry on "Fotografy". In this case, it is especially counter-productive, because the name exists in both spellings. Adolph Wagner always spelled his name the correct way, in all letters, in all publications. And finally, there actually exists an economist (of minor importance, but still) by the name of Adolf Wagner. I hope someone can revert this. User:Clossius 11:01, 29 May 2005 (UTC) ==Photographs of Siegfried Sassoon== Deb please review the talk page on the above subject. User:Wjbean 18:45, 2005 Jun 2 (UTC) ==Welsh people section?== Hi again. I've been plodding through the "What links here" stuff for Welsh and trying to disambiguate a lot of links. Looks like you're doing exactly the same at the same time. I was wondering about some of the remaining ones. It's easy to redirect some links to Welsh language or Wales, but I was starting to wonder whether it was worth creating some sort of category or page for Welsh people, too, for the pages where the links aren't really relevant to the language or the place..? --User:Telsa 00:13, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC) :Well, I have now found a whole heap of other places to send them: Welsh mythology, Welsh literature, Welsh poetry, Culture of Wales and the rest, which is helping. I don't know much about how to make categories, and Welsh and Wales already seem to suffer from a lot of "Welsh something" and "Something of Wales" articles which aren't heavily linked-to and overlap as it is. When I saw the Welsh people article (pre-redirect) I did think of actually giving it some content. If that helps, I could do that. Or does the removal of the redirect mean you're working on that? Failing that, I start to think that unwiki'ing Welsh where there's no useful link might be simplest, although not the ideal solution! --User:Telsa 16:22, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC) ::Eep. I'll see what I can do :) --User:Telsa 16:45, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Deb



Deb can mean: *deb (file format), Debian's package format *A debutante, a young lady entering high society particularly at a ball *Deb, a shortened form of Deborah *Eugene Debs

Deb



It's mildly irritating how we've gone from a simple setup to one with a bunch of redirects and extra edits to update all the links... --User:Joy *Redirects are gone now: all links updated. When writing references, the following options are now available: ** .deb ''(same as before: so nobody is forced to change anything nor type differently from now on)'' ** deb (file format) ''(note the pipe, which shortcuts this one to just "deb")'' ** deb (file format) ::— User:Danakil 10:27, Aug 31, 2004 (UTC) : No, that's not the problem, I don't dislike redirects, I dislike the idea that caused them to be made the way they were made. We now have a whole disambiguation page where we could easily have a normal page for the only actual useful "deb" on the list, and a deb (disambiguation) for the rest (none of which are actually ever linked). It's boggling that nobody actually noticed this before doing all the work... --User:Joy
