User talk:Rufous

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!

Shader fix coopertion...

I noticed your note on Talk:Shader. In case you forgot to add it to your watchlist, I wanted to drop a line to let you know I could support the review. MaxDZ8 18:10, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Revert

Please justify your revert at Pwn. I fail to understand your justification, as you've added a mass of non-MOS HTML code to the article. Also, what problems was there with the content of the addition? Please leave me a message so we can understand each other's intentions. Thanks! --Shadow Puppet 21:06, 20 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That was a mistake, sorry. I was reverting the change back to un-curled quotes and hadn't noticed your addition to the text. Rufous 15:14, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Justify again

Please, put a message when you remove a link, so we know why this link is bad for you. Boole

404 error tutorial link

That link is superfluous imho, and serves nothing but ad impressions for the site who have rehashed the apache docs anyway. -- Jon Dowland 09:50, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yoshi's Island

Thank you, your re-write is great, it puts forth both positive and negative critical views and mentions the lack of commerical success. Hope you don't mind, I made some small edits to give proof that the information is true. 156.34.222.92 15:22, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Gattling Gun and batteries

Our towed Vulcan used 2 Sears Die-Hard batteries mounted under the gunner's seat. we also had a 1.5kW generator and we could slave the gun to the prime mover (HMMWV) if we needed to. Hope that helps. L0b0t 00:38, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

About a revision

Sorry about missing that on the Pwn page. -Niarbeht 21:31, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kwahoon

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Kwahoon, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Kwahoon. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Undo revision 102924745 by 74.106.221.56 (talk) -- this is an encyclopedia. Try to avoid "might"s)

What I added happened to be true. Should I restate it as a definate, seeing how the only occurance of the word 'might' was in the description of the edit? You tend to be a pretty useless mod if you don't actually read what an article says. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.106.221.56 (talk) 23:00, 30 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]

What you added was pure speculation and not a useful addition to the article. Rufous 23:41, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
