Well, we pulled it off!
The House and Senate are now back in Democratic control... I'm glad to see that Colorado elected a Democratic governor and the blue tide swept the gubernatorial races nationwide, well, except for California... Now it's off to Denver in 2008 with our first steps towards regaining the presidency! --Folksong 08:56, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

It's the beginning of something really great; a new chapter for history to record, and one which I anticipate to be one of America's finest. I think that one of the most critical points in this election cycle has been the fact that we haven't wavered in this fight. Through it all; Kerry's botched joke, GOP mud-slinging, the pundits slamming us, all of it was just another speed bump that we took with stride. We rocked the country on last night, and we're setting up for the future. Thanks for dropping by, Folksong. Editor19841 (talk) 02:14, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
Good to see you back!
I understand what you're going through.. it seems that Wikipedia is being "Freeped" by a bunch of conservatives who feel that the NPOV policies of Wikipedia aren't NPOV since they are not sympathetic enough to their conservative viewpoint, which they hold testamount to divine revelation. The good thing is that their edits aren't widely tolerated, but they do make the business of editing and improving articles much more difficult. --Folksong 03:14, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

You've got that all the way. Everything gets more complicated for the opposition when they go down, so they look for somebody or something to slam. It's something that we, both as Americans and as civil folks, have to just deal with and get past. I'd like to hope that these people (who lean so far to the right that the center is left in their POV) could learn their lessons eventually, but eventually is never soon enough. What are ya' gonna do? But hey, thanks again for all the support. Editor19841 (talk) 00:17, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Wow. Anyone who points out that your editing is clearly not NPOV is a stupid republican? Sorry to disappoint, but: I'm a staunch Democrat, read DailyKos and Billmon daily, am giddy after our win this past election day, and can't wait for 2008! I am also an academic and try to hold Wikipedia up to its own standards. Cutting and pasting article material directly from a politician's website is both plagiarism and not writing from a neutral point of view. Can you really claim otherwise?

An academic, huh? Than you should know better than to pick fights. I'm not interested in responding to idiotic claims and attacks on my character. You're putting words in my mouth, rather on my keyboard, and I'm not willing to participate in stupid banter with you or anyone. Sorry to inform you, that I too am a pretty staunch progressive and not a plagiarist. Go play with your friend on his pathetic little blog. Editor19841 (talk) 23:57, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
- FYI, academics pick fights all the time, especially over trivial details. Just read about nomenclature for naming plant species or some of the debates on whether Pluto should be called a planet, to name two off the cuff examples. But that is neither here nor there. If you aren't a plagiarist (and I'm willing to believe that you aren't) then you wrote the copy for Bill Ritter's personal website and shouldn't be editing his Wikipedia page (personal research, NPOV, etc.).

You're obviously a more sensible editor keen to the way we do things around here as opposed to your "anarchist liberal" buddy. I am not a plagiarist, a shill, etc. I will drop by the article as soon as I get the chance to re-write a perfectly good section that has been in question this whole time. FYI, I never wanted to participate, start or create any animosity here and feel that all this has been wrongfully dropped in my lap to deal with. Wrongful persecution and slander of my good name here on the 'pedia is a tough image to break; whereas the article could just be re-written as many times as we please. Academic or not, Democrat or not, bad manners aren't acceptable. Editor19841 (talk) 21:17, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
Hey
Glad to see you're back! Happy editing. --Ginkgo100 talk · e@ 04:16, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

The Religious Left, on the 'pedia
Thanks for noticing me. I can certainly support what I saw when I did a quick skim ... as long as it doesn't somehow link back to my ex ... Keesiewonder 00:00, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Ya' know, I probably never would have caught that little grammatical error had you not pointed it out, (and I'm a bit embarrassed) but thanks for taking care of that. As for the RL, I had a feeling that you would be into it. Thanks for dropping by and joining the crowd! Editor19841 (talk) 20:24, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Kurt Cobain - "People from Seattle"
The heading on Category:People from Seattle says:
The people listed below were born in, residents of, or otherwise closely associated with the city of Seattle, Washington, and its metropolitan area...
Cobain certainly qualifies under that definition. If you feel the category definition is faulty, it may be worth discussing it on the Category talk page. -- ChrisB 20:17, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

My negligence; sorry about that. Editor19841 (talk) 21:09, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Not that I disagree with the tag, but could you pop by Talk:Greg Nickels and provide some reasoning for the NPOV tag? :) Else it is wont to be removed. --Bobblehead 04:37, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Done. Thanks for stopping by. Editor19841 (talk) 19:18, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
New username
I have had my username changed from Chili14 because I wanted an age-neutral name, which was not what I had before. I am now known as CJ King. I hope life is treating you well.--CJ King 23:11, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
- I would not recommend changing your username unless you really need it. I changed it because I am not 14 years old and User:Chili is already here, so I came up with this. I don't think your username merits any change, it seems perfectly fine to me.--CJ King 02:34, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
Response
Cool new name; and I don't think I'll be changing mine anytime soon. See ya'. Editor19841 (talk) 19:20, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Just wanted to give you a heads up, dc Talk is on the AID page. It needs 4 votes by the 24th of this month. Please vote for it and Merry Christmas.--CJ King 04:04, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Response
I've been looking the article over lately... AID would be helpful. I'll drop by and give it my vote today! Thanks for dropping by. Editor19841 (talk) 19:19, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
