Excellent edit edit

  That was an outstanding edit on civic virtue, especially the addition of the Oath of the Horatii on the page. Keep up the good work. I plan to major in history, by the way. Dbraceyrules 19:44, 21 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

  • Actually, User:Ihcoyc is responsible for the absolutely brilliant expansion of civic virtue, including the Horatii. As much as I love ancient Roman history and mythology, my edits on that page were confined to a small, modest section on later times, regarding schools, prison and boy scouts; User:Ihcoyc also outdid me in that section by talking about specific textbooks.

Rami Nuri and Gopal Das edit

Thanks for tidying up this mess I created. I've now rather shamefacedly changed my vote on Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Rami Nuri, please see my (pathetic) reasoning. In future I vow to be far more cautious in listing things for deletion. Flowerparty talk 01:17, 25 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

  • I think it was a perfectly understandable mistake, especially because I've never even heard of this religion until today. Never heard of Xenu until I came to Wikipedia either, but I thought it was a good analogy. CanadianCaesar 01:40, 25 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

Matrix Character Names addition on 7/29/05 edit

Hi, CC. That was indeed, in my opinion, a good addition to add to the names pages legitimacy and appropriateness. It's been hard to find an outside reference that concerns itself with something that's "just a movie". Spencerian 04:31, 30 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

    • This template, Template:Test4, to be exact. Maybe the "test" part explains it... CanadianCaesar 04:20, 1 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

          • According to the history of your talk page no one has posted a test4 on here. That was why I was wondering if you were logged out. Evil MonkeyHello 04:24, 1 August 2005 (UTC)Reply
            • I understand why you asked that, I hope I didn't come across as being snarky or anything. I appreciate your thoughts. False alarm, probably? CanadianCaesar 04:26, 1 August 2005 (UTC)Reply
              • It just seems very strange that you would get a new messages header when you didn't get new messages. On what page did you see it? I'm wondering because sometimes people go and create fake new messages headers on pages. But otherwise, yes it will be a false alarm. :-) Evil MonkeyHello 04:29, 1 August 2005 (UTC)Reply
                • You solved the mystery. I checked the edit history for the Aug 1 VfD pages, and a new message header was faked and reverted. Thanks! CanadianCaesar 04:34, 1 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

Charter edit

Hey there, CC. I hope you have been able to enjoy the long weekend. I think your contributions have been great and I hope you keep them up. We definitely have our work cut out for us on the Charter articles as there is much more to cover. Admittedly, I'm not as well versed in sections 24 and 3 as I would like so I can't speak too much to whether there are any errors or omissions. I hope to look into those sometime in the next while and I'll see what more I can add. All the best! -- PullUpYourSocks 22:12, 1 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

R. v. Morgentaler edit

Thanks. It's not my best writing but it's a really interesting case. I appreciate all the fix-ups and I hope to get a bit of time later to clean it up more myself. --PullUpYourSocks 23:15, 8 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

R. v. Oakes edit

In theory, judgements likely fall under Crown Copyright. However, realistically, it seems improbable that they would or could ever be enforced. Neither the courts or parliament have really said much on the matter, so it's not very certain. For safe I'd treat them as copyrighted. Having written a large portion of the Oakes article I'm little embarassed to find that I may have copied from the judgement. I usually try my best to explain things in my own words. If I don't fix it before, I'd appreciate any changes you could do. Cheers! --PullUpYourSocks 13:28, 11 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

I did a little research on the copyright of court decisions. As far as the Supreme Court decisions go, they are freely reproduceable. I've put details in the Crown copyright#In Canada article. Basically, anyone can reproduce it so long as due diligence to ensure accuracy is exercised, which, given the amount of peer review going on, should make it easy, and that it is not mistaken for official versions of the document, which by virtue of being on wikipedia makes that abundantly clear as well. --PullUpYourSocks 21:11, 12 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

User:Agriculture edit

Tony, I think I broke the WP:POINT rule when editing Agriculture's user page, with a snide edit summary. I feel really bad about it and, for what it's worth, have apologized. Can you block me for 24 hours? CanadianCaesar 01:07, 18 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

No, because I'm confident that you'll do your best to avoid doing it again so there'd be no point blocking a potentially productive editor.

Thanks for the message you left on my talk page. I don't know who I've pissed off, but I'm glad that it wasn't me who got blocked/banned by mistake. When I saw the vandalism on MONGO's page and followed the link from the vandal to Hamster Sandwich. it just took me to what I thought was my user page. Then I became very confused.

Re:ECK master edit

I see you've rearranged the ECK master article, and I was wondering, besides the order, what do you think of the article overall? What else is it needing? I've been looking at some books and was thinking about a section on how to become an ECK master; I was also thinking of a "Critique of the ECK master concept" section, since I've drawn some inspiration from the Xenu article. Anything else? CanadianCaesar 02:12, 28 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

I thought "wow, this is some wild stuff!". I'd like to see more content generally; eckankar, and esp eck master's are extremely interesting to a guy like me who researches obscure faiths for fun. If there is to be more criticism (and is it really needed? C'mon, one of em lives on Venus!

Supreme Court of Canada Copyright Violations edit

Hello. Please read the appropriate copyright pages before marking a page as a copyright violation. I've reverted your changes on Michel Bastarache, Ian Binnie, Louis LeBel and Marie Deschamps. See the SCC copyright page [1] for more information. ♠ SG →Talk 17:55, 16 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

  • Yeah, well, PUYS and I reverted them back, he agrees it's a copyvio. Besides, why do you support copying and pasting? Do you enjoy hurting Wikipedia? CanadianCaesar 00:58, 18 October 2005 (UTC)Reply
    • How can it be a copyright violation when the SCC states that it isn't? Wikipedia is about quality, yes, but when there is no quality to fill an area, quantity must substitute. How can more information be hurting Wikipedia? Please review the copyright terms of the SCC carefully. ♠ SG →Talk 01:30, 18 October 2005 (UTC) — Also, you haven't provided any proof of copyvio, while I have actually given you a link to the SCC themselves which states it isn't in violation. ♠ SG →Talk 01:36, 18 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Speedy Delete edit

An article about a non-noatable cat is not an unreasonable thing to have listed as {{db-bio}}. I relisted the article for speedy, but typed out {{db|non-notable story about somebody's cat}}. This takes more time, however, and just prolongs a process. The article will obviously end up being deleted, but on AfD it will require lots more effort that would be better spent elsewhere. Storys about cats are still somewhat like bios. Even you voted delete!Gaff ταλκ 02:19, 22 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

One hand clapping (phrase) edit

Philosophy stub? Really?

It's a deal! edit

I'd most certainly be willing to team up on an article. Section 2 would be my pick. It's one of the most interesting sections, and is likely a popular one to the average reader. Section 11, though extremely important to the administration of justice, is largely procedural and can be kind of dry in parts, so it wouldn't be my first choice. But in all, I think focusing on Charter articles over case articles is prefered as they are more challenging and require more information from a broader variety of sources. If we are agreed to work on section 2, perhaps we can divide our efforts between the headings, I will leave it up to you to decide who does what, I'm entirely flexible. But one word warning, over the next few weeks I may get tied up with other obligations so my effort and contribution may be a bit spotty for the next short while. -PullUpYourSocks 14:37, 4 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

I'll try to do some work on it here and there over the next week or so, maybe nothing substantial until the latter half of the month, but if you want to start on the other parts I'll be more than happy to review it and give you some input where I can.

Difference of Gaussian Categorization edit

Wow, 2 minutes after I created the article, you had it categorized. My friend and I were discussing as to whether or not you used some kind of bot or update script to aid in this lightning-fast turnaround. At first I thought that Difference of Guassian was not really an algorithm but upon further thought, I believe that it is both a wavelet, and an algorithm utilizing convolution with that wavelet. Please tell us how you did this so fast! - 06:55, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Moving articles on afd edit

When you move an article that's on afd, could you please create a redirect from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/OldTitle to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NewTitle instead of moving the afd discussion? My bot can account for redirected afd discussions automatically, but it can't detect moved ones, and there isn't really an easy way to make it do so. —Cryptic (talk) 15:46, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

D'oh, sorry, I was hoping that wouldn't have been a problem. I tried creating the redirect first, but for some reason it kept showing up on my screen as a red link, as if it wouldn't save. So I tried something else. Guess I lost patience. CanadianCaesar 21:46, 18 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Operation Anthropoid edit

Ave Caesar! I was not correcting your grammar;) my grammar is terrible. I thought it that - it had no sence in introduction - because it could be mentioned in the next part of the article (context) or in "see also". I know it sounds strangely - but Czech resistance is more complicated to say, that Czech resistance killed Heydrich. For example when Czech resistance (living in Prague) realized, that Gabcik and Kubis are going to kill Heydrich, they made an effort to stop them. Your article about the Czech resistance is very interesting, but there should be some kind of classification - home resistance - "foreign" resistance. Because most of the Czechs who wanted to fight - moved to England or Russia, because it was clear that it will be almost not possible to fight Nazis in the country with so many Germans living in it.

Yes, I noticed you lurking in the law articles. I must say, I'm impressed by the recent work on section 12. Well done. It looks like it may only be a matter of time before we have all the Charter basics and case law down. Both those cases you refer are really interesting and worth writing on. In fact, was told on good authority not long ago that the Burns case is considered by some to be one of the most well written Charter decisions of the last 5 years or so.

Canadian Charter vs Act vs Bill edit

I disagree about removing the disambiguation re Charter. I know from personal experience that most people are notr aware of the difference between the Canadian Human Rights Act and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and have never heard of the Canadian Bill of Rights. When they read about the Charter, they think they are reading abouit the Act and vice versa, and that is one reason why Canadians don't understand their human rights.

  • Please sign your comments on my talk page (~~~~). But anyway, disambiguation is for articles that would otherwise have the same name. The Canadian Bill of Rights has never been known as the Canadian Charter of Rights, and if anyone has ever thought that there was only one bill of rights, they can read the article and the see also section and discover more. If they start out by reading about the Charter, that's the best place to start since that's the constitutional document anyway. CanadianCaesar The Republic Restored 21:32, 31 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
    • Sorry about forgetting to sign. I still disagree. While I'll conceed the Bill may be ignored since few poeple have heard of it, many people think that "Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms" and "Canadian Human Rights Act" are synonyms, and that the Charter applies to the private sector and is enforced by the Canadian Human Rights Commission. If they were looking for their human rights in the workplace, they wouldn't know they were reading the wrong article until they got to the end, and recognize the link to the Canadian Human Rights Act.Wuzzy 22:03, 31 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

I was quite surprised to se that films that have been considered the greatest ever had been moved. If you had read through the archives you would have seen that the article had been moved in the opposite direction not too long ago after discussion.

Uva religious movements website edit

I noticed that you used the UVa religious movements website as a reference for Harold Klemp. However individual entries of this large website were written by students and hence the website is of greatly varying quality. And in some cases, like Sai Baba completely wrong with regards to the facts. I hope you can find other better references. Andries 01:22, 15 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

As far as I can tell, what I cited from that website in ECK master was substatiated from the book I read by Ford Johnson. As for Klemp, pretty much all I got from that website was the "Westernizing" thing, which I can't recall for sure but I think that might be true. If you have any reason to doubt, please let me know. But have you tried looking this stuff up? I could quote extensively from blogs or copy and paste from the main Eckankar websites like several others are doing, but citing university websites is pretty good and at least I'm trying to expand/rewrite these nanostubs and copyvios. CanadianCaesar The Republic Restored 21:11, 16 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for doing serious research at this subject. What I meant to say is that the UVa website seems to be a reputable source when in fact it is doubtful because of above stated reasons. The student who wrote the article about Eckankar may have been very accurate or not. Some articles written by students at that website are lousy and factually incorrect. If you know the subject well, you may be able to assess the quality of the article. I cannot do that because I do not know the subject well enough. Andries 21:29, 16 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Requesting admin action (nicely) edit

Hello there, I see you're on-line; some time ago articles were created called Rami Nuri and Gopal Das. These were full of nonsense and hoaxes, but I merged what was valid into a new article and redirected them both. Problem: Anons either reverted the redirects to restore the nonsense or merged the nonsense into the new article. It was seriously compromising the integrity of the encyclopedia. So I asked Zscout nicely and he protected the redirects. Months have passed and all of that nonsense has ceased. I now believe the time has come for the redirects to be unprotected, both because nothing in the wiki world should be protected forever and because if someone moves the main article, they wouldn't be able to fix the double redirects. Thanks, CanadianCaesar The Republic Restored 06:53, 21 January 2006 (UTC)Reply
