Your GA nomination of Parallel computing

The article Parallel computing you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold. It hasn't failed because it's basically a good article, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Parallel computing for things needed to be addressed. Blair - Speak to me 01:50, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Very good work expanding the history section of the Parallel computing article. Raul654 (talk) 20:21, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Book cover image is not invalid "fair use" image

It is book cover. Check License : 'Non-free book cover' if this bookcover must delete, then harrpy porter book cover need delete too. Manacpowers (talk) 21:49, 15 January 2008 (UTC) Sorry, we weren't able to suggest any articles for you. Something is probably wrong on our end.

Request for semi-protect of my talk page

Over the past few months, some random IPs (likely belonging to the same person) have been using my talk page for chatter, and sometimes posting very bizzare things. I repeatedly clean up my talk page by deleting these, warning the IPs not to post the bizzare chatter on my talk page, but it still continues. I believe that it would be best that my talk page be semi-protected for at least six months. It becomes increasingly annoying cleaning up my talk page. MVillani1985 (talk) 08:25, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Done. Only for 1 month. --BorgQueen (talk) 11:39, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Ok, thanks. Hopefully by then the anonymous IPs will find something else to do. MVillani1985 (talk) 22:02, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

When adding entries to "next update", could you please make sure to also fill in the credits at the bottom of the page? Thanks--Carabinieri (talk) 14:32, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Misplaced Pages better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 01:28, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi

DYK note

Hey. When choosing hooks for the next update, try to start with the dates closest to expiration before doing ones on the 20th or so. The backlog's rather mild right now so it's not a big deal, at least you're helping out :) Wizardman 04:17, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

I am aware of that guideline. But, as you said, the backlog is not so much now, and I am picking more interesting ones. Why don't you participate in moving articles to the update yourself then, if you have different taste/opinions. Cheers. --BorgQueen (talk) 04:20, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Greetings. I'm wondering if you would consider giving me the DYK messagebox for helping substantially expand Mosque of Omar? Or is that only for the creator/nom? Fishing for compliments, yours truly, HG | Talk 06:52, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Ah, ok. Tee hee. You got one. --BorgQueen (talk) 06:59, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Copyvio on main page.

Just to let you know that I have deleted Image:Victoriatown Map.jpg from Misplaced Pages, and have subsequently removed it from the main page as it was an obvious copyvio from Google Maps. I have also removed it from Victoriatown for the same reason. Regards. Woody (talk) 20:01, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Can you block this sock ip 124.87.134.96?

Hi, BorgQueen, I come across here as you're active. I've been dealing with a long persistent sock ip users's near vandalism. The user has been registered to Japanese Soft Bank network, and his vandalism on Misplaced Pages:Requests for checkuser/Case/Amazonfire fourth times with two ip addresses. As the consequence, the ip user has been banned from editing for 2 weeks. Per their same writing style and interest (ex, manhwa and yujacha), even thought the network host is different, I believe the user is using an open proxy or in a different place like internet cafe.

I believe the user evades his sanction again (many 5~6 times?) Can you look into his contributions and block him? Thanks.. --Appletrees (talk) 15:07, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

I just wanted you to block the sock ip user, but I think this time, the user switches to Amazonfire (talk · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki) whom I strongly believe the sock of the same user.

DYK talk page

Could it be made clear on the DYK talk page whether new nominations are supposed to be added at the top or bottom of each day's section, or doesn't it matter? Mjroots (talk) 23:04, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't really matter, in my view. --BorgQueen (talk) 04:49, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

DYK Next update clearing

When you clear the next update, would you please copy the contents from Template:Did you know/Next update/Clear? Little things like the full set of bullets are a great timesaver! Royalbroil 14:46, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

I always do that; please see this latest "clear" --BorgQueen (talk) 14:50, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Are you copying the entire template though? I miss the astericks/bullets on the bottom, so I added them! It's not a big deal, merely a nice convenience. I've been concentrating on contributing content lately rather than updating DYK since DYK has been well covered. It's very nice to see that contributors have been verifying entries early. Royalbroil 14:59, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

• As a side note, your activity in updating DYK frequently is totally awesome. You certainly deserve special admin Scooby snacks-preferably some "free use" ones but they happen to be out of stock ATM. :) Agne/ 16:37, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

DYK tags on articles/userpages

Who is responsible for tagging DYK articles when they appear on the main page? The new set hasn't been tagged yet. I can do it if anyone can do it, but one of them is my work, and that might not look right... Horologium (talk) 17:51, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Actually, the admin who updates the DYK page is supposed to do it. Ask him if he is willing to do it, but if he refuses someone else has to do the tagging. --BorgQueen (talk) 17:58, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I have notified Keilana. Horologium (talk) 18:07, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Satoru Kobayashi (director)

Thanks for the DYK, BorgQueen (I promise that will be the last Japanese erotic cinema nominee from me for a while ;) -- I thought this director's accomplishment was of enough significance to warrant a second JEC DYK within a week). One possible problem though. I don't see it on the main page or in any of the DYK archives... It seems to have vanished from DYK history somehow... Dekkappai (talk) 18:52, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, BorgQueen. Right-- I'm well aware of the pink film problem too, and try to be delicate about the subject with Japanese friends. My (Korean) wife, knowing my interest in the subject, tut-tuts, "People won't respect you if they know you're interested in those movies!" But, to my thinking, Japan is the only country that has really made a cinematic artform out of the erotic film genre. That should be cause of some sort of pride, though I do understand the embarrassment the subject can produce on their part too... Cheers! Dekkappai (talk) 19:52, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

DYK

Thanks for using my fact about Music Macro Language in DYK. One thing, though — could it be altered to not refer to MML as a markup language? As you'll see if you read the lead paragraph to markup language, it doesn't fit the definition, though it actually gets confused with Music Markup Language quite frequently.

I'd like to be able to help out a bit more, unfortunately my time's a bit limited ATM, and I may not be able to do much for the next couple of weeks. I'll try to pitch in when I can though.

Tweaking of Killing Time DYK hook

Yo, while I appreciate the need for DYK hook's to be concise and to the point, your removal of "operatic tenor" from Paul Feyerabend's careers pretty much undermines the novelty of the hook - the point is that the fellow must have lead a pretty interesting life (and thus have a compelling biography) if he was a Nazi officer, operatic tenor and a notorious philosopher with a vigourous sex life. Might you consider restoring it? скоморохъ 05:52, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

You have a point. I restored it, and removed the sex life part instead, which isn't really crucial. --BorgQueen (talk) 06:02, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Are you a Cali/Aussie Cab drinker?

:) Those grapes tend to be more ripe and will have less pyrazines with the fruit essentially drowning out any bell notes. I'm glad you find that hook interesting. :) I'm a little more partial to the 1st because I was surprised to find out that one of the world's greatest wine grapes was an accident that only happened a little over 300 ago. :p Agne/ 07:53, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Yes, actually, almost all (if not all) Cab I drank were from there, I think. Nice insight. And, you see, many of the greatest discoveries in history were accidents... Mother Nature has a sense of humor. :-D --BorgQueen (talk) 07:56, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Revert

Your revert of this should not have been done in the way it was done, I understand where I went wrong, but you are not supposed to revert using rollback unless it was vandalism, you should have used undo. ~ Dreamy 17:50, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Actually, I did think it was a vandalism. It has been a target of vandalism before, that is why it is semi-protected, if you haven't noticed. Updating the clock without simultaneously updating the DYK can lead to serious disruption of the process. Can you explain why you made such edit with the edit summary "Updated it"? It doesn't make much sense. --BorgQueen (talk) 18:05, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

You see, I hadn't read the template properly before I edited it, and I made the mistake of updating what I though was just the time, not the clock for the next update, it was a genuine mistake, and as you said, it is semi-protected, I am obviously able to edit it, and I would consider myself an experienced user. I am sorry for my inconvenience, and I hope you noticed that I did not revert you, I explained, and asked for an explanation. Again, truly sorry. The only real reason that I knew of the pages' existence is that I have contributed to the DYK before, see here for proof of that. ~ Dreamy 20:27, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

WP:DYKA credit cookie

Hi BorgQueen, regarding this DYK credit, I'd like to point out that the article 2008 Lincolnshire earthquake was substantially expanded (doubled in length) by my work when the content of 2008 Market Rasen earthquake, which I created, was merged by Dhartung into 2008 Lincolnshire earthquake, and the Significance section and the quoted DYK fact came from my edits before the merger.

I've never had the pleasure of a DYK credit cookie, and I'd love to have one from you if you have any spares. :) - Neparis (talk) 01:18, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Sweet

Tastiest cookie ever! Thanks. Neparis (talk) 01:46, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

DYK

Hi, since you're moving entries at the moment, just wondering if there's any reason the John McCauley one is getting passed by? Not a huge deal but if it doesn't get up I'd like to know for next time - length had been questioned but that's sorted now... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 11:07, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Picture, too - many thanks. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 21:41, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Can you peek at the article and decide if the quotes functions in the references should be deleted. The arguments for both sides are on the talk page. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 01:06, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
