Jewel move

edit

Hi, and welcome! No offense, but I believe your recent move from Jewel (singer) to Jewel Kilcher may not sit well with some of the editors of that page, since this practice of naming articles is somewhat controversial. If you make similar moves in the future you may wish to first leave a note on the talk page for a while. Deco 05:13, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I just moved it back. If you looked at the talk page, you'd see that we discussed it before. Always discuss moves before carrying them out unless it's obvious the article should be moved (such as in the case of misspellings). Jewel Kilcher is Jewel's full given name, but she goes simply by Jewel professionally. Peace :-)Frecklefoot | Talk 18:44, Jan 25, 2005 (UTC)

Madonna

edit

Why did you move Madonna to Madonna (disambiguation)? Wondering, -- Infrogmation 04:11, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Since the most common use of Madonna is for the singer, I wanted to move Madonna (entertainer) to Madonna and Madonna to Madonna (disambiguation). --KelisFan2K5 17:29, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Did you then go back and fix all of the double redirects which resulted? RickK 21:33, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)

Don't blank Wikipedia articles. RickK 21:33, Apr 9, 2005 (UTC)

Bomb (symbol)

edit

Might there be a better name for this — something that identifies it as an error message in a specific OS rather than a universal symbol? Do you know what Apple called it officially? Gazpacho 01:29, 3 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

I don't know the official name of the Bomb symbol :( --KelisFan2K5 01:39, 3 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

Are you really sure the Kristen font comes with Mac OS X? It's not on any of my macs here. See talk page, and [[1]]

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.
