User 2005 is stalk-reverting this page

He/she continues to remove my edit regarding GoldenPalace.com purchasing the sculpture of Suri Cruise's "poop"; which is noteworthy and a current event. I don't know why. Maybe he doesn't like Golden Palace. I could give a crap about Golden Palace, I'm just fascinated that a gallery would commission the work, an artist would create it, and then a silly casino website famous for buying crap (HA! CRAP!) would buy it for 10 grand. It's a hell of a lot more interesting than buying a sandwich that looks like Jesus. 2005 claims that there are enough entries about online auctions on the entry, which may or may not be the case (as that is an opinion, not a fact), but oddly I don't see user 2005 editing his/her poker entries for brevity. I think he/she has a grudge against Golden Palace. Maybe he/she lost their rent on the site. Don't know, don't care. It's an interesting entry. He/she should leave it alone. I'll just keep re-re-re-verting it if he/she doesn't find a new hobby. Weirdoactor 03:48, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I explained my reason for removing this bit of juvenile trivia. The fact Golden Palace does these auctions is noted in the article, with the most significant examples. Your obsession with this trivial poop thing has lead to you adding a bunch of irrelevant junk to the article as well as several childish statements. Please begin to edit in good faith. 2005 04:45, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Please begin to edit in good faith"? Physician, heal thyself. When you disagree with something, you delete it. That's not editing, that's censorship. Get over yourself. It's "wikipedia", not "2005edia". You are not the final arbiter of worthiness. It's a community, innit? Weirdoactor 11:44, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Streaker cuts no ice at bronze medal match Scottish man ejected after dancing on ice sheet; U.S. takes bronze, 8-6"

John Macdougall / AFP - Getty Images A streaker mimics a curler during the Britain vs USA match in the men's curling battle for bronze at the 2006 Turin Winter Olympic Games, in Pinerolo. The U.S. topped Britain, 8-6.

Updated: 10:42 a.m. ET Feb. 24, 2006 PINEROLO, Italy - Britain’s match against the United States for the men’s curling bronze medal was interrupted on Friday when a male streaker ran across the ice.

With poultry for a loin cloth, the man vaulted the barriers and danced up and down the side of the ice sheet for several minutes before being bundled away by bemused rink attendants.

The British team, skipped by David Murdoch, who were lagging the U.S. 6-2 in the sixth end, rested on their brooms, laughing, while the streaker jiggled past.

As armed police ejected the man, naked into the cold mountain air, he was heard to plead in a Scottish accent: “Please will someone bring me my clothes?”

The British team, made up of all Scots, went on to lose the game 8-6.

I removed the following because I couldn't verify them:

the company paid $10,000 US to another woman for putting the URL www.goldenpalace.com on her forehead. The woman did it to pay tuïtion for her son.

That's probably a duplicate; some versions of the first woman's story also mention the son's tuition.

When the newly elected Pope Benedict XVI addressed the crowd in St. Peter's Square on April 19, 2005, a large banner for GoldenPalace.com was unfurled across a portion of the crowd.

Only mentioned on Wikipedia mirrors. AxelBoldt 09:21, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

hhaa..

this casino is hilarious, if I were going to gamble online it would definately be with them... except I suppose I would have some reservations about the fact that they can afford to spend all this money on strange stuff... as for the woman who got her name changed for $15K and the tatoo lady for $10K... the tatoo lady got screwed :-( - Abscissa 03:10, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Golden Palace

I agree with the Tag that this page should be merged into the Golden Palce page, as it is fully detailed there already... Triponi 20:45, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to me like there should be a Golden Palace page, as there is a GoldenPalace.net, also — which appears to be the same company, but not a gambling site. I actually came to this artcile hoping there would be discussion on the distinction. --Jonathan Harford 21:12, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

GoldenPalace.com named monkey goldenpalace.com monkey!

.........yeah im not kidding, aparrently goldenpalace.com won an auction and they named the monkey after themselves.....respectivley —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.53.135.210 (talk) 14:33, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Past tense?

The article's lead refers to goldenpalace.com in the past tense - it "was" an online casino. Isn't it still in business? The Web site appears to be live. If it still exists, then the article should use the present tense; if it doesn't still exist, then the article should include information about when and how it shut down. 130.179.29.61 (talk) 15:30, 29 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
