== Original welcome message ==

Hello Daniel, welcome to Wikipedia! 

There are lots of resources around to help guide you. try:

:::Well, it is sort of a to-do list.  Basically, the program looked for broken links that were named very similar to existing articles.  Read [[User:Daniel Quinlan/redirects]] for more information.  A bunch of people have been helping out.  Thousands of broken links (one way or another) have been fixed by now.  [[User:Daniel Quinlan|Daniel Quinlan]] 12:30, Nov 16, 2003 (UTC)

== AKFD trolling? ==


⏎
(RE: AKFD) - you really think AxelBoldt was trolling? Or just that that was the result? [[User:MyRedDice|Martin]] 00:31, 18 Nov 2003 (UTC)

: I think the original page was possibly trolling, although perhaps the intent was something else, who knows, maybe moving some questionable material off of another page and hoping for a deletion, who knows now.  The best trolling turns out like this.  Very expensive and time consuming.  My plan is to merge the information into [[anti-gay slogan]] (which seems like a better location than [[homophobic hate speech]] in retrospect) and then move <u>all</u> of the discussion into a series of numbered articles, probably [[Talk:anti-gay slogan/Archive-AKFD-1]] or something like that.

== Province table ==

I disagree with you about removing the province tables. I find them intensely convenient for navigating between provinces and I think it's unwieldy to present them on a separate page only. I find your reason for removing it rather dogmatic. - [[User:Montrealais|Montr&eacute;alais]] 06:31, 18 Nov 2003 (UTC)

: The information is not needed and the presentation is large and clunky.  I don't think that's dogmatic at all.  We don't need to clutter up every article with tables of links to related articles.  [[User:Daniel Quinlan|Daniel Quinlan]] 12:16, Nov 18, 2003 (UTC)
