Great to hear from you!

Thanks for your nice comments. My user page is a mess compared to most. The people who are good are user pages are the ones I met in Esperanza while it was still going. User:Tachikoma (Kyoko), User:EditoratLarge, User:Randfan. They are all helpful and considerate Wikipedians. You might be able to make a new user box for people who still use rotary dial telephones - I wouldn't know how.

I agree with you that Omnipotence is too limited in its scope. I took the liberty of alerting User:Itaqallah, who edits pages on Islam in case he can help it reflect the Muslim view of omnipotence better. I think, for example, that although Muslims believe they worship the same God as Christians, they do not allot a gender to God. Itaqallah has been working hard on trying to bring Islam to good article status. If you wanted to pass by that article and make a comment on how informative it is for people from a different background, it could be helpful. User:Badbilltucker in the Religion project seems to be a good person who has got a lot done in a short time.

My pleasure. I added a sentence on Taoism to Omnipotence, see what you think.Itsmejudith 13:06, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Omnipotence

Hi Teardrop. I don't like removing stuff, so I should give you a day to ref your Omnipotence contributions properly, but it really reads like OR at the moment. NBeale 17:37, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Candy

Just curious, how was my revert back to a previously correct version not correct? You edited my correct version for what? An extra space? Sardonicone 22:50, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. I was just a trite confused.Sardonicone 12:03, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: User talk:213.220.233.230

Don't worry, I don't think the IP got blocked and if it was the case, I think you can log in anyway. See the policy [1] if I'm wrong. Happy editing. - Myanw 12:15, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hinduism template

Hi, I notice that you have been adding the Hinduism sidebar to a lot of pages. Please note that in some cases it is disrupting the page layouts. Most of the pages already have a Hinduism horizontal bar at the bottom. Can you please discuss your proposed changes on the talk pages for individual articles before continue to add the template on more pages? Thanks! Buddhipriya 20:26, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Use of external web links as references

Hello. I notice that you added material to the Kundalini page [2] by referring to a web site that is not a WP:RS as it does not cite any reliable sources. For information on link policies in general please see WP:EL. The claims made were WP:FRINGE in nature, and as such need much stronger citations. Do you have access to any books on the subject published by recognized academic sources that can be used to provide reference on the subject? Buddhipriya 23:20, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Institute for Consciousness Research

Hi! I just wanted to check that you had permission to use copyrighted material from the organization's website at Institute for Consciousness Research. Sci girl 04:23, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Onechectomy

I saw you are in the Animal Rights WP and was wondering if you are against Declawing animals or Onychectomy? The userbox is located at {{User:PatPeter/User nocatdeclaw}}

User:PatPeter/User nocatdeclaw

So just copy the title as you are viewing and put it with the {{ }} and w/o the [[ ]] to your userpage. -PatPeter 18:36, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes you can add your user page to this CAT by copying this code [[Category:Wikipedians against the onychectomy of animals]] as you see it. -PatPeter 21:32, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mitochondria

Hi there. I'm still worried about that section on food preservatives. I've outlined my concerns on the talk page. Tim Vickers 16:14, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Shiva Shakti.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Shiva Shakti.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 18:07, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

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.
