editWelcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Shankill Butchers has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

- No, considering the context of the article, "henchmen" would fit well.
- Apologies for my mislabeling your edits. On Wikipedia, we come across sarcastic vandals daily, and since I didn't thoroughly read through the context of the article, I assumed your edit was unconstructive (excuse the cold term).
- Please, please tell me if it ever happens again - I would really like feedback on my work. :)
- Thanks!
LaPianista! «talk» has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Cheers, and Happy editing!
Smile at others by adding {{subst:Smile}} to their talk page with a friendly message.

Query
editHi Manormadman, two things. Firstly there is a query on Talk:Bruce Goldsmith that you might be able to help on. Also a tip, you only need single square brackets for external links, double is only needed for internal links to other wikipedia articles. Cheers WereSpielChequers 15:53, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of C-84 confidential
editPlease refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as C-84 confidential, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion (
{{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

- I was notified by Manormadman today that he was not responsible for the article in question and I had a sysop go back and check. Manormadman was right, I put it on the wrong user's page. I apologize for the mistaken notice. Abashedly, TransporterMan (TALK) 20:45, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
Paragliding
editPlease immediately self revert on Paragliding. While you may not have been following the previous discussion, as the admin deciding on whether or not to protect the article, I stated that no edits are to be made that are any more than fixing typos or adding wikilinks. Your edits change the meaning of the section. Note that I even think your edits are good edits, but at this moment, the article needs to be treated basically like it is fully protected with regards to content.

Paragliding and paraglider
editToward your mentioned matter:
- Paragliding is the activity of gliding a kite; then such kite is a paraglider. All paragliders are kites of the gliding-kite kite sort.
There is still the kite, it is just that the resistive set or anchor is moving by force of gravity freely through the fluid; such attraction on the payload/anchor/resistive set couples with the wing set via a tether set. A gliding kite is still a kite. Some kites not set in glide are not paragliders.Joefaust (talk) 22:21, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
We'll have to agree to disagree, Joe. I maintain that paragliding is the activity of flying a paraglider; and that a paraglider is not a kite. A paraglider -- the whole aircraft, including its lines, harness and pilot -- is not tethered to anything. Manormadman (talk) 14:44, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
