One by one, the guests arrive
The guests are coming through
The open-hearted many
The broken-hearted few

”

— Leonard Cohen, "The Guests"
based on a 13th-century Persian poem

Notice: If I have posted on your talk page, you may ping me and we will conclude the conversation there.

Welcome to my talk page. Please adhere to the talk page guidelines and particularly the following:

It is easiest to use the "Add topic" link at the top of a talk page and "[ reply ]" link following each post but you may edit this page directly if you follow the above-mentioned guidelines.

If you choose to edit the page directly, please observe the following in addition to anything else in the above-mentioned guidelines:

Please post your new topic at the bottom of this page.
Please sign and date your entry by inserting "~~~~" at the end.
Please specify a descriptive subject or headline for a new topic and separate subtopics by ===heading=== lines, if needed.
Please indent your posts with one more ":" than what you are replying to, i.e. begin with ":" if replying to an existing topic and "::" if replying to a reply.

Regarding replies and notifications:

I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or use the "[ subscribe ]" link by each thread heading,or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.
If I left you a message; please answer on the page where the message was left, using {{ping|Username}}, {{reply to|Username}} or {{u|Username}} in your response, or add {{talkback|Username}} or {{whisperback|Username}} to my talk page. If you leave me a message here, I will answer here on my talk page, notifying you in the same manner.
