[edit] Thanks!

Haven't had a chance to fully familiarise myself with all the tags yet; just using basic Wiki stuff. Thanks for the welcome, and hopefully you'll see me around a lot. Guybrush 01:30, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Lawrence Miles

There is a reply for you at User talk:Paul A#Thanks for the edit!.

[edit] "Doctor who?" John Bowman

Are you sure that he calls himself that? I know Chang Lee signed John Smith on the Seventh Doctor's medical history sheet, but I can't remember when the Eighth Doctor calls himself Bowman. -khaosworks 03:35, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Yes; either he or Grace introduces him as such at the party for the unveiling of the Berylium clock. I'm pretty sure it was him... Guybrush 04:44, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Hellboy and the Cthulhu Mythos

Hello. I just took a look at the References to the Cthulhu Mythos article and noticed something. Don't you think the description about Hellboy which you added there doesn't really belong to the article? It is valid, but it talks about the premise of Hellboy's stories as a whole, yet it gets distant of the article's scope, which is the Cthulhu Mythos. This doesn't really happen with the other entries. I guess regarding Hellboy, further info about it can be found on its article.

I am familiar with some of the comics, and I've read a story where Lovecraft is indeed mentioned, so it's indeed true, but I think that entry should have more about "Hellboy and the Mythos" and less about just "Hellboy". I was actually thinking about adding that entry to the article, but you beat me to it. =P

Carry on.--Kaonashi 03:39, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing that out; I thought it might be justified explaining his origins, but on a second reading you're right, it does deviate from the purpose quite a bit. I'll cut it down. Guybrush 03:52, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

It looks better now. Thanks for understanding. =] --Kaonashi 04:20, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

No problem. I like to think I don't often go too far, but it's nice to know people will reign me in if I do. ;) Guybrush 04:02, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] The Great Mouse Detective

We would appreciate your insights into the topic currently being discussed at Talk:The Great Mouse Detective. --Paul A 07:17, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Crowded House

Remember to mark your edits as minor when, but only when, they genuinely are (see Wikipedia:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one, or vice versa, is condsidered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that an edit of a page that is spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'.

BTW, have you checked out Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board or Wikipedia:WikiProject Melbourne yet? :) pfctdayelise 13:21, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up; I've been marking most things I've done as minor, and it seems many of them aren't! I have checked out the Melbourne project, though not found anything I can contribute much to yet; the noticeboard is a new one, I'll check it out. -- Guybrush 14:16, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] 7.30 Report

Please justify your removal of the old logo rather than just deciding to remove it. Evolver of Borg 21:08, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for pulling me up on that; I've outlined my reasons on Talk:The 7.30 Report for discussion before I remove it again. Let me know what you think. -- Guybrush 10:49, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Page Redesign

I, Mollsmolyneux, have redesigned the List of incomplete Doctor Who serials page. To view it please Click Here. Please leave any comments you have about the page on My Talk Page and tell me if you think I should put the page on. -- Mollsmolyneux 12:51, 12 Nov 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Meetup in March

I see that you are listed as a participant in the WikiProject Melbourne. If you are a Melbourne resident I would appreciate your views on the suggested Meetup in March . Please give some indication of your interest, or otherwise, in the idea. Even a simple "No thanks" with your user name would be welcome and assist in assessing the level of support for a meetup. Thank you.. Cuddy Wifter 06:30, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Red Dwarf

Barrington it is also an obscure reference to Red Dwarf

Obscure that might be a bit of a understatement. Whispering 03:33, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
