While I realize its bot driven and has all the sincerity of a mass mailing I would like to say thanks. I just discovered this site and I'm almost ecstatic to be here. Finally an internet community that gets it.--[[User:Mitrebox|Mitrebox]] 15:31, 26 January 2008 (EST)

==Great Job==
 +
Nice job on [[CREDO Mobile]] Crocoite!--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 13:11, 3 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:More on this, just so your aware - due to some [[Talk:CREDO_Mobile|a question Fox brought up]] as to whether all the organizations were liberal or not, I redid the phrasing a bit [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=CREDO_Mobile&diff=next&oldid=384002] --<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 13:38, 3 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:Thanks Iduan. Your edit is appropriate. Since a liberal company has identified all their favorite groups, it is fair enough to identify them here on Conservapedia. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 13:41, 3 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
Thanks for those recent blocks!--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 00:32, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:Your welcome Andy. I'm not in the mood for their liberal games. ;-) --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 06:14, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
==Thanks==
 +
Wow, thanks for fixing "Tuscon" - eek, sorry about that!--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 20:33, 19 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:No problem. When I wikified it, I wondered why there was a red link, and found out that it was misspelled + it's now a wanted article. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 20:37, 19 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
==Contest 5==
 +
Hey Crocoite, as you were a participant in the last contest I'm just giving you the heads up that the [[Conservapedia:Contest5|draft of the point system for contest 5]] has been written, and we're using the talk page as a forum for any notes/complaints that any users may have. Thanks, --<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 20:23, 2 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
== Delete Notice ==
 +
 +
The way that delete notices work is that you discuss the matter on the appropriate page.  --[[User:GDewey|GDewey]] 19:03, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:I'm not discussing this with you. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 19:06, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
::WHy not?  THe delete notice was a genuine attempt to improve the site.  I cannot understand why you would not discuss.  --[[User:GDewey|GDewey]] 19:08, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:::Would you discuss it with me? --[[User:RedFive|RedFive]] 19:13, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
::::No. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 19:14, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:::::Aw, shoot... :( --[[User:RedFive|RedFive]] 19:19, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:How about me? Just kidding.(thought I'd put in my two cents) :P [[User:BethanyS|~BCS]]<sup>[[User talk:BethanyS|Talk2'''ME''']]</sup> 19:21, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:: ;-) --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 19:23, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
Was blocking him for a week ''really'' the best way to handle that situation? It certainly doesn't inspire me to offer constructive criticism in the future. --[[User:RedFive|RedFive]] 19:36, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:I'm not discussing this with you. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 19:39, 7 February 2008 (EST)
 +
::It wasn't ''constructive'' criticism; it was ''destructive'' criticism. [[User:BethanyS|~BCS]]<sup>[[User talk:BethanyS|Talk2'''ME''']]</sup> 19:40, 7 February 2008 (EST)

== Wow, Crocoite… ==

 +
…getting a bit unpleasant there, aren't you? --[[User:MakeTomorrow|<font color="#00ff00">Make</font><font color="#0000ff">Tomorrow</font>]] 15:59, 8 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:I'm not in the mood for liberal distractions. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 16:02, 8 February 2008 (EST)
 +
::Case in point. Distractions from what, might I ask? --[[User:MakeTomorrow|<font color="#00ff00">Make</font><font color="#0000ff">Tomorrow</font>]] 16:03, 8 February 2008 (EST)
 +
MakeTomorrow you're acting troll-ish, if the only thing you go on talk pages for is to tell users that they're "getting unpleasant" then you may end up with a block.--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 16:32, 8 February 2008 (EST)

 +
Great blocks!--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 20:56, 13 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:Thanks Andy! --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 21:03, 13 February 2008 (EST)
 +
::Hey you did all the hard work! Deleting pages while also blocking users! Excellent job!--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 21:07, 13 February 2008 (EST)
 +
<br>Thank you blocking Fliggle91. Nice job. -^_^- [[User:Kektklik|Fuzzy]] 00:01, 16 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:I just got back from the movies and I was ready to block a liberal, atheist vandal. Thanks for the reverts. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 00:03, 16 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
Nice kickoff entry!!!--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 20:48, 17 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:Thanks Andy! I made it right before I had to leave for a friends baptism. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 21:55, 17 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
== The Onion ==
 +
 +
Hey Crocoite - just to make sure, you know the Onion is a parody website right? Like that John thing didn't really happen ..--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 22:54, 17 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:Yes, I know [[The Onion]] is a parody website. I still like the example. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 23:14, 17 February 2008 (EST)
 +
::Ok that's fine, I just wanted to make sure you knew :D --<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 23:17, 17 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
== NPR ==
 +
 +
I noticed that awhile back you found some sources pointing out NPR's liberal bias. I've also heard NPR be accused of being elitist as well, such as that its listening population is significantly richer than the general population. I'm looking for sources for that and I was wondering if you had anything. Thanks! [[User:DanH|DanH]] 18:57, 18 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:Dan, I will glad to help you with sources after I finish a major article I'm doing for contest5. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 19:03, 18 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
Wow, what a great entry on [[National Institutes of Health]]!! unsigned by User:Aschlafly
 +
:Thanks Andy! --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 01:39, 19 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
==Post-contest==
 +
Many thanks, and I really appreciate all you did! We put our noses to the millstone and pounded out some great work - now to see how the scoring tallies :D [[Image:User Fox.png|10px]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 06:56, 21 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:To add - do you have a favourite page you would like nominated for Masterpiece? [[Image:User Fox.png|10px]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 07:00, 21 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
::Thanks Fox. I wish my News articles were worth more points but I was able to score big with that [[National Institutes of Health]] article.
 +
::Great teamwork Fox and you did an awesome job. No, my new articles aren't Masterpiece material. I think your [[Passover]] article does qualify for the Masterpiece award. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 09:28, 21 February 2008 (EST)
 +
==Delete==
 +
Hey Crocoite! Can you delete [[Holodomor denial]] for me? It's a copy of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial_of_the_Holodomor] (with minor variations in wording). Thanks, --<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 21:33, 22 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:Done. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 21:53, 22 February 2008 (EST)
 +
::ack, sorry to do this to you Crocoite - but the user who wrote the article now says that they were the ones who wrote it on wikipedia - and they just didn't know to put that note on the talk page, would you mind restoring it? Sorry,--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 11:22, 23 February 2008 (EST)
 +
:::Done. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 11:26, 23 February 2008 (EST)

== Swift-Boating ==
 +
 +
I really enjoyed your entry on [[Swift-Boating]], Crocoite!--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 23:54, 24 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:Thank you Andy! --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 23:59, 24 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
== Blocking ==
 +
 +
Crocoite, when I revert some vandalism could you at least give me a few minutes to add the block. You're taking all my fun away! :(  [[User:BrianCo|BrianCo]] 14:46, 28 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:I don't mean to take your fun away, but I think it is better to block them first, then revert the vandalism. That way you stop them from doing more damage and you or someone else can do the reverts. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 14:50, 28 February 2008 (EST)
 +
::A good point I suppose. My first instinct is to undo the bad and then dispense justice. I guess that's my first-aider training getting the better of me. [[User:BrianCo|BrianCo]] 15:25, 28 February 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
==St Davids Day==
 +
Any chance of a mention on the front page? Thanks, [[User:Koba|Koba]] 06:46, 1 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:Done. Thanks for the suggestion. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 07:12, 1 March 2008 (EST)
 +
::Diolch yn fawr, Crocoite [[User:Koba|Koba]] 07:14, 1 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
== Thanks for the welcome! ==
 +
 +
Cheers.-[[User:PhoenixWright|PhoenixWright]] 13:23, 3 March 2008 (EST)
 +
:Thanks especially for the edit counter link, I just paged through the Commandments and noted the 90% rule!  That will prove useful.-[[User:PhoenixWright|PhoenixWright]] 13:25, 3 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
::Your welcome. Happy editing. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 13:27, 3 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
== Short blocks ==
 +
 +
Crocoite, thanks for the short block on User:MJSvensson.  By the way, sometimes copying is of someone's ''own work'' on the other site, and that is acceptable.  Others may not be aware of our rules against copying from another wiki.  Is there any chance I should lift MJSvensson's block for a potential misunderstanding?--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 12:03, 4 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:I understand that sometimes it is ok to copy if it is their own work. I checked the IBM 5250 article and it was a direct copy from http://indopedia.org >[http://indopedia.org/index.php?title=IBM_5250 Indopedia - IBM 5250]. Indopedia says "Articles started before 24 Dec 2004 are outsourced from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, and occasionally developed by Indopedia authors."
 +
:I then checked the revision history and it appears this article was a direct copy from Wikipedia (cur) (last) 13:08, 12 Oct 2004 137.111.13.34 [http://indopedia.org/index.php?title=IBM_5250&action=history Revision history].
 +
:His IBM 3270 article appears to copy parts directly from Wikipedia.
 +
:Perhaps we can lift his block if he can substantiate these articles were his original work. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 12:16, 4 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
== E-mail ==
 +
 +
I sent you an e-mail.  Did you get it?  [[User:Philip J. Rayment|Philip J. Rayment]] 05:03, 5 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:Yes, I received your email and sent you a reply. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 08:39, 5 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
== categorize Swift-boating ==
 +
 +
Would you please categorize your article? I disagree with the contents and so recuse myself from editing the article. For what it's worth, I think you can absolutely make the case that the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth did a service to the country (and the case is amply made in the appropriate article), but the usage of the term "Swift-boating" is probably close to 100% as a derrogatory term.
 +
 +
Again, I'm not debating the merits of the Vets for Truth movement, but I think you're on the wrong foot in the article. Before responding, please note that I've done absolutely nothing to the article itself. Thanks, [[User:Aziraphale|Aziraphale]] 16:14, 6 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
==News item==
 +
Crocoite, I'm sure there's a US source but I just saw [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7282269.stm this] on the BBC web site.  [[User:BrianCo|BrianCo]] 18:41, 6 March 2008 (EST)
 +
 +
:Thanks for the update. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 18:42, 6 March 2008 (EST)
