Oh, by all means submit the DYK, and I suppose the port and the authority are more or less synonymous, functionally. -- Mr Accountable ( talk) 17:17, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

No, no, as per an earlier comment, I am still working on manufacturing solid stubs and starts for areas of wikiundercoverage like Ministries of Kenya, and the article looks very good. And, I like the infobox. I googled the dry port a few days ago, I didn't really find anything, I'll look for it later.... Today is the Super Bowl, its the end of football, by 11 tonight Boston time, the gestalt will have shifted to college basketball, March madness and bracketology; and then there's baseball and the days of summer. Sports is such a great metaphor for international conflict, don't know what I'd do without it. Take care. -- Mr Accountable ( talk) 17:46, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Boston's like Busan, Massachusetts is deeply forested. As for the national hearings, I've heard being in court's a lot of work, the whole nation is now in a courtroom, I think it takes forbearance and resolution. -- Mr Accountable ( talk) 18:34, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Cool, both of us on the front page together! Your fried spiders are front page news! WOW the snow here today is amazing!! Its snowing hard and there i slike a foot of snow. Its very rare to get snow on the south caost, common up north but winters are usually very mild here. The winter scene outside looks awesome!! Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 10:14, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

AH the sun is shining intensively now as it often does in the snow and it is quickly melting!! You might want to keep a tally of your DYKs at Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of DYKs. I must have had at least 50 DYKs since I started on here but I'm not even on the list! Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 12:29, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

It's snowing here now near Narragansett Bay. It's always 10 F colder 50 miles|80 km northwest and the snow never turns to rain. Please see North Atlantic Drift. -- Mr Accountable ( talk) 14:29, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

As a participant in the Battle of Phnom Penh Commercial Bank, you may appreciate this; a few hours ago I looked at CSD and saw Chander Mohan, a one sentence article. I wrote the article and then thought to write a news article, which is now at Portal:Current events 3 Feb. Would that have scored some points in the cup? Congratulations on the DYKs. -- Mr Accountable ( talk) 14:14, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

I'll have to join Netflix for a month and rent that movie Fiza. -- Mr Accountable ( talk) 14:50, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the spelling fixes. I'm not sure how they keep sneaking into every bit of substantial article writing I do, but luckily some people can fix it. I've reinstated the word netto and linked it in the article for ease of reading. There were in fact some facts I knew to be true, but which weren't reliably sourceable, or facts I suspected were outdated, so if Barnett ever does another interview, I'm ready to update. :) - Mgm| ^(talk) 10:53, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

• I actually wanted to write this a long time ago. I'm glad I waited for the guy to become more interesting and extensively documented. - Mgm| ^(talk) 10:56, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm not in the Wikicup as far as I know. - Mgm| ^(talk) 10:56, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

• I'm not getting it. The article got just 782 hits on DYK day. Why Asa Butterfield got over twice that much hits I'll never know. Apparently, the number of chocolate lovers is smaller than I thought. - Mgm| ^(talk) 11:50, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
• Yes, the lowest common denominator gets me every time (I'm just surprised Asa Butterfield didn't receive similarly low hits). It especially annoys me when it concerns television... Too much bad tv gets made because the general public is too stupid to watch something that requires them to think. Luckily for me the Dutch version of The Mole defies explanation and is still going strong after 9 years despite this. I'm working on finding a last few bits of factoids. When I'm positive I've got everything in there, I'll nominate Louis for GA. - Mgm| ^(talk) 12:11, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
• I've just undone a copy-paste move someone did recently to put Louis on the main page for the name. Now, I'm not entirely sure what we should be doing based on the naming conventions, but I don't think either person is better known or more important than the other to make the decision to move unilaterally. I'm offline in about 4 hours and will be inactive for at least 3 hours after that time. Could you keep an eye on it and keep the newbies on their toes if anything happens in my absence? (Your opinion on the naming is appreciated too) - Mgm| ^(talk) 10:02, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Super. -- Mr Accountable ( talk) 19:14, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

A friendly good evening to you Paxse. Its been rather a few weeks since I've contacted you so I wanted to ask you how many Cambodian political party logos and platforms have you found? If you have some of that then where will you show all those platforms and logos of Cambodian political parties on Wikipedia so I can use all of that to make articles on those parties. If its possible what would be useful is to give me some third party sources on the activities of these parties like from Cambodian newspapers if you could translate them from Cambodian into English for me.

I want to let you know that I think the previous week I found the website of the party I did the article on the party called the Society of Justice Party. So I wondered if you know of any websites you could give me of Cambodian political parties like [ Khmer Anti-Poverty Party], [ Hang Dara Democratic Movement Party], [ Khmer National Party], [ Khmer Improvement Party] and any other Cambodian political parties you know of I could make articles on.

Please reply soon, thanks from a far away friend. Political Dweeb ( talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 20:06, 6 February 2009 (UTC).

Couple of things though; please note that you must make it known you are in the WikiCup when nominating FAs, FLs, FPos, FPs, and FSs. This is to lower the possibility of bias. We're also changing the way you get to the next round. Now, the top two from each round get through, along with ten wildcards. This means that even if you're not in the top two you can still get into Round 2, so even if you're in the group of death you can still go through. Hopefully this will be fairer for all. We've also unfortunately had our first withdrawal - Truco has left the Cup. Best wishes for him in the future.

There could appear soon some border town categories for Southeast Asian nations, along the lines of the series of Southern Africa border crossing categories viz Category:Zambia-Zimbabwe border crossings.

My request for a good pin map of Cambodia has been granted, my good friend NordNordWest has created a higher quality svg map File:Cambodia location map.svg. I practically begged him to make it a priority as the old one didn't meet SPECTRE's seal of approval. Looks good I think. I've also obtained some new images of Cambodia by asking a flickr user to change the license on sleected images, we now have some nices images of Takeo rice fields and Kampong Cham.

I note that you wrote a message on the board of one of the participants in a school project wherein students are collaboratively creating new articles. One editor in particular, ( andy), has taken it upon himself to nominate almost all of these creations for deletion. I'd like to invite you to check out the discussions of the following pages: Islam and civil rights, Hinduism and science, Buddhism and the body, Taoism and death, Jewish clothing, and Christianity in Haiti. I think that in most cases deletion is unnecessary as the articles can be salvaged with further editing. These are all articles hat have just been created in the past few days.

No problem, she's doing fine - just had her 15th birthday in fact. It was a hell of a shock and made the family rethink a lot of priorities (hence the long wikibreak). She still has to take meds and have tests and what-have-you, but so far, so good! Thanks for being concerned. Cheers, Paxse ( talk) 17:43, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Since you're a big help over at WP:ACC (where I'm a newbie), I was wondering if you could lend me a little help. I have automatic welcoming by SQLBot-Hello ( talk · contribs) enabled, but after 7 accounts that I have created at ACC, I've had to welcome all of them manually. I have my signature for the automatic welcoming set to my Wikipedia sig, and I have User:Malinaccier/Welcome set as the welcoming template. → Dyl @ n 620 20:21, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Can you please tell me how to make a new page for something. I really was wondering why Wikipedia removed the pages of Tanaka Koki, Taguchi Junnosuke, Ueda Tatsuya and Nakamaru Yuichi.
