Thanks for adding info to the Casualties page...each story should be told. --The Cunctator
- I didn't even know about the Vegas loss till I scanned the list today. Figured since I live in Vegas I should take it upon myself to add it. ---Jagged
All we need is for a few more people to do that, just pick their hometown and find the casualties. (Depressing in one way, uplifting in another.) --The Cunctator
I just wanted to thank you again for your commitment...I guess I shouldn't be disappointed that you're just about the only other person to be doing this. I'm trying to figure out ways to improve the site and promote it, and convince our fellow Wikipedians to add entries. I really think that's the most important part of the site. --The Cunctator
United States Congress
Ah, much better for United States Congress. I just caught that someone only put in one state and I was too busy getting the others written up to worry about making it pretty. ---Jagged (on DanKeshet/Talk)
- You did the hard work of filling in the numbers of reps. All I did was shift 'em about. :) Good work both of you on the S11 pages. I'm simply amazed... --DanKeshet
Stock Exchange
Hi Jagged. I don't mean to step on your toes moving the stock exchange page where it was; but please see naming conventions. --Larry Sanger (also currently, temporarily, in Vegas!)
No problem, I caught that afterwards but got distracted from changing it at the time. ---Jagged
MGM Grand
I reverted your renovation change The Signature at MGM Grand, May 2006| since this is not really a renovation to the MGM Grand. As I understand it, this is a different hotel/timeshare run by MGM Mirage. I also expect that The signature's article may be sent to AfD unless it is improved since it does not appear noteable as it currently exists. Vegaswikian 03:08, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
- I guess it depends on the reasoning for the "renovations" attribute. The Signature is being built on MGM Grand property. - Jagged 04:40, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
MGM Mirage Template
Thanks for you work so far on the MGM Mirage template, but with these type of templates we try to make them as small as possible so that is why I removed the line breaks under Nevada. I hope you understand. --Ben 00:44, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
Bot Anschluss
Oops! My bad on that: have you fixed them all already, or should I go back and double-check? I believe the problem here was having used membership in a subcat of Category:California, which in the wild and woolly manner of the category "system", obviously re-includes some Las Vegan categories and articles at some depth or other. I should really have used Category:Buildings and structures in California instead, to be more conservative, which I'd double-checked, as I generally try to do, for only containing relevant sub-cats: not sure why I ended up using the broader category. Sorry for the inconvenience. Alai 04:07, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
Navy ship disambiguations
Thanks for disambiguating Manus. I've got a list of easily confused Navy terms, mostly geographical, but I don't know how to scan articles and make changes. If you'd like to have the list, I'd be pleased to email it to you. Right now it's an Excel workbook. Lou Sander 13:27, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
"Disambiguation link repair - You can help!"
You changed Lee Hall to Lee Hall with this edit summary. But Lee Hall, VA is not a disambiguation page, but a redirect. What was the point of these edits? --NE2 23:21, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
- Please don't do that without a better reason (such as turning Lee Hall, VA into a disambiguation page) for the reasons described at Wikipedia:Redirect#Don't fix links to redirects that aren't broken. Thank you. --NE2 23:30, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
WikiProject Disambiguation Talk Request
This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 22:15, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
"Commonweal" is not "Commonwealth"
I reverted your "correction" in the Starship Troopers (novel) plot summary. The two terms, while related, are not synonomous; and it was correct as it stood.--Orange Mike 02:29, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
Categories
Just wondering what purpose is served by removing the space between the colon and category name. - Dudesleeper 10:33, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
- Apologies. Apparently I clicked the talk page of the wrong user. The edit was made by a bot. - Dudesleeper 22:26, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
why redirect "Witch's wheel" to "ceder's point"?
this is a famous ride world wide (I've done it both in Norway and Israel) and thus I would think it deserves it's own article.. why did you merge it ? --Acidburn24m 23:26, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia:WikiProject Treaties
Thanks for contributing to the List of treaties article. I would appreciate any other contributions you might have pertaining to treaties in general. If you want, please sign your name at Wikipedia:WikiProject Treaties if you are interested in writing treaty articles, editing them, etc. If not, thanks anyway for your help. Later.

Your old user and talk pages
I've have merged all the deleted history from Jagged and Talk:Jagged (which are now actual articles), to User:Jagged and User talk:Jagged. Hope you don't mind. Graham87 06:17, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
WikiProject Colorado
The year 2011 has brought many changes to the State of Colorado. We have a new Governor and other state officers, two new U.S. Representatives, many new state legislators, and a new Mayor of Denver. WikiProject Colorado is updating many Colorado articles. Many Colorado places, people, and organizations need new articles. Portal:Colorado needs new featured articles.
Can you help us? Please see our list of some requested articles. If you wish, you may join WikiProject Colorado at Wikipedia:WikiProject Colorado/Members. If you have any questions, please leave me a message at User talk:Buaidh or e-mail me at Special:EmailUser/Buaidh. Thanks for any help you can provide.
Don't forget the Wikipedia 10th Anniversary event in Boulder tomorrow. Yours aye, Buaidh 21:53, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:22, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
Disambiguation link fixing one-day contest
I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day (see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 02:31, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

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.
