The thingy

Hi! :)

Thanks for adding a new article. Please, though, categorize your articles when you create them; while there are those of us who will go through and clean-up the uncategorized articles, you know your subject better than we do.

For a list of categories, go here: Special:Categories. To add a category to your article, type two open brackets, then "category:" followed by the category you want. Just add two closed brackets and you're done! You can add as many categories as you feel are appropriate. Thanks!

The Sexual intercourse Memorial Hall of Protected Articles that Need Categorizing

sexual intercourse Done.
USS Samuel Gompers (AD-37) -> please change category to cat:United States Navy Auxiliary Ships and cat:Destroyer Tenders. For that matter, I don't know why it's protected...?

Note to whoever else watches this page...

Somebody else needs to help clean up Special:Uncategorizedpages or it will get out of hand eventually. Once I've asked people to categorize their own pages nicely, I get less willing to clean up after them. Aziraphale 12:15, 10 August 2007 (EDT)

• Well it seems as if you have withdrawn from the project, so I will need to find someone else to help with all of this now. I was in hopes of cooperation and help with the categories, needed pages, etc. If you no longer have the time, or desire to help with this, do you have any suggestions as to others who have the technical wiki knowledge to do it? --şŷŝôρ-₮K^{Ṣρёаќǃ} 01:51, 11 August 2007 (EDT)

I've withdrawn? Check my history TK, I was categorizing *today*. There aren't as many articles to be categorized. I've also contributed to the conversations in your sandbox. Not HUGELY, but I've been keeping up. Yeah, I've been lazy about doing the US -> United States. Assuming the pace around here continues to be what it has been, I imagine they'll be there this weekend or next week when I get around to them. ;) I'm sorry if you feel my level of commitment is unacceptable. You're right, I'm not terribly "committed." THIS IS MY HOBBY. That said, when the mood strikes me I'm happy to contribute my labors to the things I want to do.

If you want to take my irritation with Ed Poor telling me, essentially, that his big britches don't warrant doing the little things that are being asked of all editors (and I'd like to point out that ASchlafly considered it a faux pas when he forgot to categorize an article) for a withdrawal, that's your business. Barring a banning, I'll continue to contribute at my own pace. Sometimes it's a trickle, sometimes it isn't.

Lastly, I've got no relationship with any other editors, here or on any other related site - to give you an idea, YOU have received almost all the non-editing communication I've done here, and you know that ain't been much. So no, I can't recommend anyone else.

okay, I lied, NOW lastly - if I seem particularly irritated, my mother pulls this same crap. I make a reasonable statement that sets (in my opinion, at least) a reasonable limit on my personal boundaries, and I get the melodrama. "ooOOOoooohhhh, you're with-DRAAAAAWWWwwwwwin'. *back of hand to forehead* I think ah have th' VAY-puhs!" Aziraphale 02:59, 11 August 2007 (EDT) <-frankly my dear...

• Wow....--şŷŝôρ-₮K^{Ṣρёаќǃ} 04:43, 11 August 2007 (EDT)

• Ahhhh, so da boys made it to you place, I see.....--şŷŝôρ-₮K^{Ṣρёаќǃ} 20:54, 16 August 2007 (EDT)

I'm trying hard to ignore the fact that, in some circles, "the boys" is an anatomical reference... Aziraphale 20:57, 16 August 2007 (EDT) <-trying, but failing

The whatchamaclit thingy of bad templates
