Hi. Concerning your edits to that page, you did remove some "strange stuff", but you also removed some probably correct information. Also, you added unnesecary material, which is probably needs verification, and contains grammatical errors. I am currently unable to fix these errors, because it is hard to tell what information you added should be in the article and what shouldn't, and the same goes for the info you removed. I will tag the page for cleanup. Please be more careful only to remove incorrect info and not add any unnesecary info in the future. I will also attempt to fix some of it if possible. Thanks. -- [[User:AstroHurricane001/ASTRO|<font color="blue">A</font>]][[User:AstroHurricane001|<font color="Purple">stroHurricane00</font>]][[User:AstroHurricane001/WikiProject Dinotopia|<font color="red">1</font>]]<sup><font color="blue">([[User_talk:AstroHurricane001|T]]+[[Special:Contributions/AstroHurricane001|C]]+[[User:AstroHurricane001/Userboxes|U]])</font></sup> 21:50, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

== Per your mouse question... ==

You might want to read [[WP:NAME]]. [[User:VanTucky|VanTucky]] 22:48, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

:I'm not sure if the policy page addresses this (as it pretty obvious if you search around names of articles)...but just like a print encylopedia, Wikipedia capitalizes the first word of every title. That is an established part of naming convention. The part people can't agree on is when to cap the following words. Only in a name? never? the arguments go on forever. But for the first word, capitalizing is pretty much accepted across the board. [[User:VanTucky|VanTucky]] 00:34, 16 May 2007 (UTC)


== Regarding Alexander Campbell ==

According to the book <u>A Molly Maguire Story</u> by author Patrick Campbell (descendant of Campbell's brother James), Campbell was known as "Alec" all his life. Also, you reverted the date of birth -- I error in the side of avoiding edit wars, so I'll let you add it back. You can check with the above mentioned source and use that as a reference.

( http://www.amazon.com/Molly-Maguire-Story-Patrick-Campbell/dp/0681828757 )

As a secondary reference, which you can view via Google Booksearch, see:

http://books.google.com/books?id=TcFbvuJbey8C&q=%22Alec+Campbell%22+Molly&dq=%22Alec+Campbell%22+Molly&pgis=1

Admittedly, many other books refer to the man as Alex; I gave more weight to the first reference above due to the family connection of the author. While I would not assume it to be authoritative due to potential bias with regard to many other aspects of the Alexander Campbell story, in the case of his diminutive name, I believe the family connection of the author to non-controversially lend credence to the claim that the name was "Alec". (Alex is the normal diminutive for Alexander, which might explain why so many other texts refer to him as such.)

(While the issue of Alex vs. Alec is irrelevant at present, since the article currently avoids diminutives, it may become relevant again if someone adds the fact that the current name of the [[Jim Thorpe, PA]] division of The [[Ancient Order of Hibernians]] is named "The Alec Campbell, Mauch Chunk Division of Jim Thorpe, Pa."[http://www.aohdiv1.com/articles/AOH_coal_miners.htm])

Well, for your information, I wrote it. hence the copyright is MINE. I am a journalist who specialises in history articles and this article is factually correct and all my own work.

Signing 'You're welcome' does not answer my concern.

Sorry, but I STILL don't understand why you felt a fully researched article, with plenty of historical facts and figures, wasn't suitable for Wikipedia. I suppose my question is why?
:We don't want text lifted from somewhere else; it wasn't written like an encyclopedia article, looked like a copyvio and lacked the reliable references required. The link you provided is dead as well. We would of course appreciate an article on the subject provided it is [[WP:N|notable]], has [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] and is [[WP:MOS|encyclopedic]].

== Dino the Machine ==

I am not quite sure why you have reverted back to the information I deleted on Canada Mens National Soccer Team page. The information that is on there is old and not even correct.

== Your reversion on Derby County F.C. ==

Hi, yesterday you attempted to revert some vandalism on [[Derby County F.C.]] but actually succeeded in putting the vandalism back in - see [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Derby_County_F.C.&curid=4721303&diff=161993049&oldid=161993024 diff]. It's likely that you were involved in an edit conflict with the bot which reverted the vandalism immediately before your edit.

ArbCom elections are now open!

[edit]

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.
