I'm not sure what you're talking about, but please stop threatening to ban me. Perhaps you need to look at my conversation with riana_dzasta as you may be talking about something that's been cleared up already. Or maybe the drugs are just affecting your brain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.216.188.161 (talk • contribs) 17:23, December 1, 2006 (UTC)

I am refering to this[1], please do not vandalize pages. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 01:26, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for noticing. You should assume good faith; while my choices may not all be correct I'm trying to improve this source of public knowledge, like most everyone else here. 71.216.188.161 01:37, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

We should both assume good faith, you are very right. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 01:49, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Apologies for that little situation. I'm not even sure where the anon found the banned template, but I think he understands now. The edit to your page was most definitely vandalism, the ohter one I'm not so sure about. Confusing, it all is. riana_dzasta 16:04, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I have a few guesses at how the anon found the banned template, but I will assume good faith instead. hehe. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 16:23, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

D'oh! riana_dzasta 18:14, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

lol, Wikipedia makes me laugh more than any other website. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 18:30, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: Royal Theatre (Victoria)

Thanks for the pic Ryan. No hurry with the other one(s), perhaps when You do go there, then take several pics (see Vancouver International Airport), and remember a bird view photo is a must ;-) . Also if You like then put them straight to commons? Again thanks, feydey 17:22, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Ya I should put them on commons instead. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 17:26, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Orion_Nebula_-_Hubble_2006_mosaic_18000.jpg

FYI, a Commons user repeatedly tagged the Orion images as "non-commercial", based on the default terms associated with ESA Hubble images; he didn't seem to accept the argument that ESA's website says it's copyright-free. Since the tag would have qualified it for speedy deletion, I moved it to Deletion requests to get the question more deliberate consideration. --Davepape 17:43, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I have given my opinion on this, thanks for saving such a valuable image from speedy deletion. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 17:57, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

D'oh - sorry about the missing colon. Strange that it didn't show up when I hit preview. --Davepape 01:23, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Adminship

Hey HighInBC, just thought I'd drop in and congratulate you on your successful RfA - that's not somewhere I tend to visit much but if I'd known you were up for adminship I'd have added my support to the long list. Although I've mostly encountered you at FPC I've also seen your name in my watchlist doing all sorts of good work elsewhere. Congrats again and happy mopping, --YFB ¿ 06:56, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, I have avoided major catastrophe so far. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 09:02, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: Christ Church Cathedral (Victoria)

Those Christ Church photos were very nice, thanks! —mwalle

Thanks. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 01:25, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: Fandemonium

How do you provide a verifiable reference when all the newspapers and TV stations in the area have completely incompetent web departments and can't keep track of an article on their websites for more than a couple weeks? I can provide scans of the paper editions. Ogredude 19:02, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Post the Name of the paper, the date, the name of the article, the author of the article. Put these in the AfD and in the Wikipedia article as references. You cannot post a scan on wikipedia as that would violate copyight laws. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 19:04, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

puzzled by your interpretation of weasel words

I know full well of WP:Weasel words - half way down the page there is the example "Many people say..." - it's a direct correlation - i removed the need for citation because the presence of both the 'many' and the is contradictory (one cannot provide a proper citation for 'many sci-fi books use ___') - if you feel that the citation is more important then remove the soft 'many' --Danlibbo 00:01, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Verifiability is very important in a featured article, or any article. I agree the word many should be removed. The whole sentence seems a bit out of place. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 00:02, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

cool - sentence sans 'many' it is --Danlibbo 00:07, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
