page removal

I'd like your input on the deletion idea here Talk:Christopher_Knight. I'm leaning to removing the 3 pages in question as way off topic. Thanks, Frater C.U.G. 23:54, 9 Jul 2005 (CDT)

[edit]

re: your note

I read the "how to contribute" and the tutorial before I attempted to mess with anything -- I just process stuff like that *really* slowly, unfortunately, so I'm making lots of mistakes. I'm used to working with pen on paper and I'm easily intimidated by brackets and the like :-). I hope to be up to speed on getting stuff to look good very soon. I friended you on lj btw -- I'm karma_sue.

[edit]

(note to self -- tilda)

"Please don't take what I said as criticism."

Oh, it's cool, sorry if I sounded defensive. I appreciate your comments, and the more I explore the site the more astounded I am by 1. the idea itself, 2. the way it's growing, 3. the amount of work you have done and continue to do, and 4. the encouraging attitude/tone of the other editors and the "approachable" feel of the tutorials. This is just an amazing site. I have been a geographically isolated Thelemite for over a decade now, and on top of that I'm a geek about spelling and grammar and a crappy ceremonial magickian, so I'm excited to finally be able to put what I *am* good at in service to the promulgation of the Law and the Order, since long-distance grammar Nazis are not in high demand in most bodies in my geographical area. ;-p

Karma

woohoo, I remembered!

Hey Ash -- I can't find your comment now, but you said something about using some specific place to leave messages. I wasn't clear if you were referring to this discussion page, so you would receive notice, or somewhere else. Please let me know if this is the right place for you to get notification of messages. Obviously no rush :)

Yeah, this is the place :)

Regarding the religion article... I guess it just seems to me that given the intense scrutiny that topic has been under, perhaps some warning and discussion about the change you intended to make would have been useful. I am not all pissed off about it, and your explanation made sense, but I just had wished that the explanation could have been found in the discussion page of the article, rather than having to pry it forth from you. FWIW, YMMV.

You're right, it would have been better of me. I guess I didn't because at the time, there was almost no activity on the site at all. I had started to believe that none of the original authors were paying attention at all. I was obviously in error, and won't make that mistake again.

Hey thanks for the award and the honor of the Order of Udjat!

You've totally earned them. You are now qualified to induct members into the Order.

Thanks for the corrections brother, I've kept them in mind for future edits. :) Jachin 15:16, 19 Jul 2005 (CDT)

The Wicca article -- if I'm reading the history thing right (and I may not be), you wrote/imported that article? The citations fell off and it's screaming for them imho. Advice? Karma 03:52, 26 Dec 2005 (CST)

Yeah, I did a straight import, although the refences must have fell off. By all means go pick them up from the Wikipedia article...be sure to go the the history version that coresponds to the date of the import. Thanks for keeping an eye open...you're doing great work. Fr. Ash 23:29, 27 Dec 2005 (CST)

Ok, cool. Now I have to go figure out what a history version mumble import is. Loving the technology lol Karma 13:25, 28 Dec 2005 (CST)Karma

-You do realize that GFDL is not compatible with trying to maintain control of distribution/modification of an article, don't you?
+----
-Adding material to the Wiki does not negate the original copyright, which is still held by the author. BUT, once released under GFDL, nothing can prevent anyone from reproducing the article, nor can you prevent the removal of the copyright notice by others. The only requirement of the GFDL is that the source be cited with a link.

-There is no way you can include Sabazius' work here without relinquishing his control of the work, and only he can give permission to do that. Do make sure he understands that regardless of notice, if the works remain here they can be legally copied under the GFDL into ''Wikipedia'', ''Free Enclyclopedia of Thelema'', ''Sourceryforge'', and probably many other locations, as long as they use the GFDL... --[[User:Aleph|Aleph]] 15:34, 31 May 2005 (CDT)
+== re: your note ==
-Of course, you actually have to delete them to protect them. Anything in the history is fair game under GFDL. I can see what my brother means about you not discussing things, even when an attempt is made. Oh, well, more work for you, I guess. --[[User:Aleph|Aleph]] 17:07, 31 May 2005 (CDT)
