Movie Infobox

Hi Karajou - I hope you can help me. I have beeen adding the movie infobox to a few films (the Ghibli ones) and seem to have picked up a slight problem. It seems to create a wikilink for the language of the film, although it is not a link in the infobox itself. The problem is, is that for the Ghibli films I have used this on, I have used "Japanese; English" as the language, but this has now created a page under "wanted items" called "Japanese; English". Unfortunately, I do not know how to edit (or find!) the infobox to change this. Please could you help? Thank you. --KotomiT^nandeyanen? 09:51, 11 March 2009 (EDT)

Instead of "Japanese; English", we could use just "Japanese" in keeping with the films' country of origin. Karajou 09:57, 11 March 2009 (EDT)

Ok, I will make the changes. Thank you! --KotomiT^nandeyanen? 10:10, 11 March 2009 (EDT)

Superb block

Censorship

You remove a direct quote from Jefferson, you should acknowledge that Jefferson would have thought you an evil, controlling, manipulative group of scum. And Jesus would too.

Not censorship; I removed an uncited source which may or may not have been Jefferson; either way, you have no knowledge at all of Jefferson because you have never read him. so take a walk to your nearest library and bone up. This include the Bible as well. Karajou 14:01, 28 March 2009 (EDT)

User Krishna obviously has never read the bible or he might have thought twice about his edit to the Christianity page. Kaylee19892 14:42, 29 March 2009 (EDT)

Science is a process of falsification, and if it's "maddening" to you that this site shows how false evolution is, you shouldn't have a problem with it. "Great" you are not; have a nice day. Karajou 12:15, 6 May 2009 (EDT)

Reply from TheBluejay

I do believe that the Guardian newspaper (a national one, with a liberal outlook) conducted a few a while ago, and I'm reasonably certain that YouGov did one as well. This is excluding many local, regional and online polls, but the overwhelming impression over here is that America is regarded in a more positive light since the election of Obama.

Well, what you included was your "impressions" to the edits you posted, which were removed. Please put in the sources they came from. Karajou 13:14, 7 May 2009 (EDT)

IP Block and Editing When Logged Out

Hi.

When I've been automatically logged out, I've noticed that some pages still offer the edit option to me. When I clicked it, it stated (luckily) that the IP and anonymous editing (to my own talk page) were blocked by you.

I'm wondering if this is a potential "loophole" or security issue (in light of recent vandalism events) and we should disallow undregistered edits through some other mechanism than IP-blocking?

speedy delete

Oh, good, I see you're on: speedy delete this Nonlineardog? It appears to be an article about a household pet, unless I'm missing something. JacobB 16:18, 1 October 2009 (EDT)

Ha, looks like it's already been done. NEvermind!

It's very likely that the household pet he was describing is the smarter of the two. Probably the only one holding down a real job, too. Karajou 16:21, 1 October 2009 (EDT)

For the FBI whinner

If it doesn't concern you, then it's none of your business; if it does concern you, then you must be shaking in your boots. But it's obvious that you are indeed shaking in your boots to some degree - possibly wearing out the leather - so to assuage that little problem I invite you to call your nearest FBI field office; it should be in the government blue pages of your phone book. If they "spill their guts," then make sure you call your local TV reporter so you can enjoy your 15 minutes of fame. Maybe ask them if you can do the weather report[3][4]. Have a nice day!

Cartoons

I'm a big fan of cartoons (newspaper and online) and I've been pretty impressed by yours so far -- definitely better than some of the junk I read. Are you planning to keep this up as a weekly thing? Will it always be political? If you're ever short on ideas or time and want a "guest artist" I could try my hand at it, though I can't draw to save my life. Maybe other admins would contribute too if there's need -- I bet Andy could come up with a good one! --MarkGall 00:48, 12 November 2009 (EST)

I'm going to try to do at least one a week. It'll be a mix of politics, science, or whatever else comes to mind. Karajou 02:09, 12 November 2009 (EST)

For TrishaD, aka AnthonyW, SammyN, ChadJ2

Here's what I think of your proposal to overthrow ASchlafly relative to your complaints of relativity: contact your relatives in the Relativity Security Force, have them lock and load their anti-matter ray guns and set the stun switch to all persons named "Andy" within the city limits of Oppenheimer, New Jersey, and fire away. This should freeze all would-be dictators within the time frame it takes for light to go from one end of the galaxy and back, according to Einstein's general (not special) theory of relativity, with a needed addendum by Dr. Myrick Von Higginheimer. And don't forget to wear your special neon-green alien conqueror battle suit with the inviso-switch in the left cuff. It's needed to get away from Space Ghost. Have a nice day.

Block?

I was looking at the Parliament article and noticed that you had reverted an edit by a user named GaiusR. It appears that what they added was factual and I could see nothing wrong with it. I then saw that you had blocked the user and I am just enquiring as to why this might be, unless there is something else I have missed. DWiggins 19:56, 15 November 2009 (EST)

Gaius was blocked because he is a well known vandal. ameda 20:19, 15 November 2009 (EST)

For CarlJ aka Belinda

If'n yer buddy is on death row for vandalizing Conservapedia, all I can say is that a little time spent in the hot seat will probably do him some good. Maybe it'll contribute to popping the Orville Reddenbocker's he stole from the local Kroger. Oh, by the way...Andy does rule. Have a nice day! Karajou 16:52, 19 November 2009 (EST)

Touch of help

Seeing as you are an administrator, I need some help regarding an article I am writing. There is a typo an grammatical error in the articles title, but I can't change that on my own. The article is :http://conservapedia.com/Manfred_von_richtofen . The name should read Manfred Von Richthofen Any help you could give would be much appreciated. --JasonN 16:30, 16 December 2009 (EST)

OK I fixed it RJJensen 17:56, 16 December 2009 (EST)

Hate to make trouble, but it seems to be pretty universally agreed on other websites that the "v" ought to be lowercase, even in titles... --JimR 18:02, 16 December 2009 (EST)

Ohrdruf, not Ordruf.

Please correct the image name and the image description from Ordruf to Ohrdruf. Though minor, it still is important to use the correct spelling.

Ann Coulter

Karajou, have you looked at the source of the description in this article that you reverted? Coulter specifically said the arguments were were "fun". And even leaving accuracy aside for a moment, which is a less strange description: Saying she "fondly recollects arguing" or that she remembers her family enjoyed arguing to entertain themselves? Or do you hear overtones that are being presented over and above that they were a talkative family? Please advise. VargasMilan 00:14, 2 January 2010 (EST)

I had thought of that a few minutes ago, and I've come to the conclusion that you are correct, and I was wrong. If you please, revert it back you your edit. Karajou 00:20, 2 January 2010 (EST)

I will. Thank you. VargasMilan 00:29, 2 January 2010 (EST)

Why'd you revert my edits to the Exodus article?

I added a section about foreshadowing of the Exodus earlier in Genesis, and you removed it all.? - Glenn

Because it wasn't properly sourced, and you've written it in a way which suggests that it was done by a third-grader. Try again. Karajou 15:07, 7 January 2010 (EST)

I can bite the bullet about third grade writing style, however the sourcing doesnt make sense, how much better sourcing can you get, "Genesis 15:13 says.. ". Which is proper intext citation for a Biblical book. Does conservapedia have a specific format for citing Bible verses so that in the future I can know? Thanks - Glenn.

I believed I've fixed it. I think it's an important contribution to the article, as the article itself says that it's based mainly on the Exodus account, and most preaching links Genesis 15 with the Exodus. - Glenn

You did fix it. And it reads much better. The idea is to take your writing first to the sandbox on this site, or to Microsoft Word (or similar program) and write it and re-write and re-write and re-write until it reads the way you want it to read when you submit it to a college professor; this site [5] should help in that manner. Karajou 15:44, 7 January 2010 (EST)

Evolution cartoon

Hi Mr Karajou, Sir! Your evolution cartoon is excellent, it perfectly sums what a huge amount of Americans think about evolution. I've printed it out and put it up at work, it's sure getting a lot of laughs! DwayneD 13:24, 18 January 2010 (EST)

Yeah, nice art work. --Ed Poor ^Talk 14:01, 4 February 2010 (EST)

K. Freigedank question

Hi Karajou, I've just read the page on K. Freigedank, and noticed that you wrote the sentence, "The word itself, freigedank, is German for free thought or free-thinker, which in its English annotation is used as a byword for atheism." I've been researching Wagner for the last couple of months, and have never run across anything that mentions this (though Wagner was without question an atheist when he wrote Judentum). Can you remember where you might have seen this connotation of the pseudonym mentioned? JDWpianist 18:25, 4 February 2010 (EST)

I saw it in a page similar to this [6], and decided to look it up. The introduction to Wagner's work Das Judenthum in der Musik [7] contains his introduction to the work and his admission that he deliberately chose that name: "For this reason I had signed the article with a pseudonym, deliberately cognisable as such: K. Freigedank [i.e. "K. Freethought"]." Karajou 18:34, 4 February 2010 (EST)

Thanks for the links. I meant though, where did you read that "Freigedank" had the connotation of atheism? Or are you referring instead to the English usage of "Freethinker"? The page itself didn't make that clear. JDWpianist 18:43, 4 February 2010 (EST)

The term "freethinker" is often used today in the English-speaking world to describe those adhering to atheistic principles. But, and I think you may be correct in implying it, the usage may have been different in central Europe over a century ago. Which means that we'll have to look up a German-English dictionary written about Wagner's time to get the correct meaning. Karajou 18:48, 4 February 2010 (EST)

Quite a tall order! But I might be able to find one at the Austrian National Library. I'll also ask my good friend who's a Germanist. My impression from research is that the pseudonym was referencing his siding with the revolutionaries in the Dresden Uprising -- he wrote Judentum (and many other articles) in Swiss exile after the revolution failed, and by all accounts the pseudonym was immediately recognized by everyone who knew the composer. I'm now quite curious to find out why. JDWpianist 18:59, 4 February 2010 (EST)

It's very possible that according to what Wagner wrote in the above link that he was referring to himself as a "freethinker" due to his own hatred of Judaism, which extended to his belief that Jews dominated music back then, and he wanted to be "free" of that. Karajou 21:40, 4 February 2010 (EST)
