thanks for the re-formatting of references dude!!!Grandia01 17:11, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello Aude, it seems we disagree with with who carried out the attack of 9/11. No credible evidence, to date, has been shown to the public that the 19 hijackers carried out the attack. What happened is that the US rushed into accusing these 19 hijackers and the media just followed them. If there is evidence, please show me. Do not show me journalistic articels, show me evidence, pls. I suggest you read: WP:NOT and WP:TIGER.
We must struggle to be neutral. If you live inside the United States, I understand that this is difficult to live with, but the non-US world (or at least Europe) is not subject to your propaganda, therefore, we share different views and opinions from you. Thanks, SeiteNichGefunden.
First of all, sory for putting my message on your user page and not here. Second, it seems we are both reverting the Organizers of the September 11 ,2001 page. I would like to solve this disagreement. Once again, no evidence has ever been presented of the alleged hijackers. If you find some evidence and put it in the references, I will appreciate. However, writing "The US govt accused" seems more neutral from my point of view. What do you think?
Let me point out that what is happening is that, after the attacks, the US government accused these 19 hijackers. But no evidence was ever given. What has happened is that the media has always presented this to us as if it is an obvious thing. If someone, like me, shows up asking for evidence, I understand that seems "ridiculous". But we must be neutral.
Thanks for your time, SeiteNichtGefunden. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SeiteNichtGefunden (talk • contribs) 10:14, 7 May 2007.

I don't know if you want me to edit the article or pass corrections to you. I do have a really impressive and rare image of the architect's model of the never-built East River World Trade Center which I would like to add. patsw 20:25, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
I have often seen the word "complex" used to describe the World Trade Center. This word seems to me to be a Wikipedia-created neologism to describe something that should have a more precise antecedent -- each usage should explicitly refer to (a) the two towers, (b) only the property owned by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, or (c) the Lower Manhattan development area (i.e., the area designated for construction of office towers in the 1970's and 1980's and given tax abatements).
(c) would include some neighboring buildings damaged by the 9/11 attacks such as the Deutsche Bank Building and 7 World Trade Center, not owned by the PA. However, 90 West Street was damaged in the attacks but was not part of the 1970's-era development. While One Liberty Plaza, also adjacent to the World Trade Center, was part of the area development plan and had only minor damage to its windows. So "complex" lacks a clear meaning to me and to readers. patsw 12:02, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Wow...that is pretty good....nice work Aude.--MONGO 22:22, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Aude,
That's certainly understandable. You're certainly more then welcome to join WP:CRIME (which includes criminology-related topics) of cource, although I would understand if time restrictions prevent you from doing so at this time. I do appreciate your reply and I hope I havn't taken too much of your time. MadMax 07:07, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
Do you want to ask Mongo? I'm sorry for being a bit touchy the other day; some of the Volcano Project editors (who've not yet helped out) were saying some things that seemed to question motives at FAR, so I was probably being overly sensitive. The article is in very good shape except for cites, so we could use Mongo's help, if he's interested. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:05, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello. Aude, you might want to warn vandals after you revert their edits. You may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace quite useful for this purpose. Regards, Anas talk? 16:06, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
That was one of the fastest, if not the fastest creation--->peer review--->FA processes I have ever seen...don't forget to add:

Hi there - did I do something wrong with the speedy G6 that you removed from this article? I thought G6 covered a pointless dab page fairly well - or have I missed something? Thanks, EliminatorJR Talk 17:42, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Re: Ronald Reagan FAC photos
I think it's easier if I talk to you here rather than clogging up the FAC page. My goal of a perfect image for the "Death" section of Ronald Reagan's page, as well as on the Death and state funeral of Ronald Reagan article, was one of Nancy Reagan (shown from the front) bent over her husband's casket saying her last goodbyes. The only pics I can find are fair use, plus many of the images on Commons are from the same high school website.
I like the idea of eliminating the stamp picture on the Reagan article and closing up the white space (it sounds like you know how to do that--I don't). If you could do that, it would be much appreciated. That leaves the fair use Image:REAGAN1996.jpg, the one of the Reagan's on their anniversary in 2000 (important pic -- one of, if not the, last known pic of Ronald Reagan), and I can added back the one photo of Mrs. Reagan saying her last goodbyes, making three fair use images. I think that's better than five.
Thanks so much with your helping out. Best, Happyme22 01:54, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
Since you mentioned it in my RFA, I thought I'd let you know - I got a job with Food and Water Watch in Washington after getting fired from Wal-Mart. So now I finally have a job that puts my college degree to work. I like it. On my personal site, I mention the move in April and May. So yeah, I'm pretty pleased.

Hopefully, I've addressed your comments concerning the nomination of Providence, Rhode Island for FA status. When you get a moment, I'd appreciate your input concerning revised article. Thanks.--Loodog 04:17, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
After discussion with Raul, he agreed to let me nominate again immediately. As such, here it is. Again, I'd appreciate as much feedback as you can give.--Loodog 14:19, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
I'd really like to add pictures to the WTC Popular Culture page.
So TV Screenshots are not allowed? Because I know TONS on TV shots on wikipedia, dose that mean we have to remove them all?
The pictures where just off of Youtube Videos or MTV Music Videos. Some I even took myself. Are those against the rules?
I have already started addressing some of the issues I had raised on the talk page, including regarding density. You may find some of the needed sources already in the Manhattan article. Please let me know if there is anything in particular that I can help with to improve the article; There's no reason we couldn't split up some of the outstanding issues, get them done more quickly and avoid duplicate effort. Alansohn 16:38, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Sorry I'm kinda slow, your reply is a little complicated.
So basicly if I post the images telling Where I got it from (Youtube), when it was made(1998), who owns the Show (Viacom), then its ok?
I mean if my images arent allowed, dosnt that mean all the images like for example, Episode pictures from the Simpsons arent allowed.
I really want to include these images, so memory of the World Trade Center dosnt fade away. So for future generations who look at the page and realize how big the Twin Towers where in pop culture, listing just dosnt do justice. I'm sure many people would love to see images of the Twin Towers in cartoons and television shows.
They'e just meant for that specific page, thats all we are useing them for anyways. Plus I think the pictures make a great additon to the page, making it more vibrant. There has to be someway to add those screens. :)
EDIT: Ok I subbimited my Problem to Wikipedia talk:Non-free content, hopefully they approve it.
Hey Aude, how did you initially update this page when you created the US gov't portal? I'm looking to do it, but hurting for ideas. Thanks.--Chaser - T 02:42, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
You undid my edits to the September 11, 2001 attacks page, when all I added were the words "allegedly," "reportedly," etc., in appropriate places. I submit that these edits were done in the interest of the "neutral point of view" espoused by Wikipedia's guidelines. I will take this matter up with Wikipedia staff, and I will win on the basis of the neutral point of view, if you continue to vandalize my edits.
The facts in question have not been proven in court of law, and are thus only "allegations." For you to deny this fact is ridiculous. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ultimist (talk • contribs)
I will take this matter up with Wikipedia in due time. And to correct you on a point... DNA of the "alleged" hijackers was "allegedly" identified. Unless you have personally seen this DNA and have testified in court about it, stop making ridiculous assumptions about what is fact, and what is not. The fact is, no court of law has convicted either the 19 men or Osama bin Laden of the "alleged" crimes. And in case you don't know, that is the standard we follow in the United States. The accusations are nothing more than allegations. No proof has been presented, Osama bin Laden and the others have not had their day in court.
That they are allegations is not a matter of "consensus." It is a matter of fact. The "reliable sources" are nothing more than news articles and the highly controversial 9/11 Commission report. No one with even grade-school intelligence accepts the 9/11 Commission's versions of events. And all each "reliable source" does is ALLEGE something. Editing the accusatory statements to include "alleged" does NOT defy the consensus. It just clarifies that these are allegations, and NOT convictions in a court of law.
Are you suggesting to me that if the "consensus" on Elvis Presley was that he is still alive, Wikipedia's article on him would state that he is alive? Ridiculous. Stupid. Asinine. I'll leave the article as-is for now. I'm not going to give you what you want, which is to stifle independent voices. But it isn't over, not by a long shot. 9/11 truth will prevail, and traitors such as yourself will be dealt with appropriately. Interpret that however you wish, bub. If you represent the mean intellect level of Wikipedia's admin's, it is no wonder Wikipedia is fast becoming the most ridiculous and inaccurate "reference" on the net.
If you truly wish to involve Wikipedia in the 9/11 coverup, and the implications and consequences that entails, by all means have your way. The truth will have its day eventually, and you're not going to be very happy.
If you would like the 9/11 Truth movement to target Wikipedia, with 1000's of us signing up and editing all sorts of pages relentlessly, making it impossible for you to pinpoint any individual... then keep up your criminal censorship, traitor.
Oh, and you had better look a little closer at some of those videos of bin Laden... Get new glasses or something, because the most important video to which you refer is NOT EVEN HIM!
I had to add this: "virtually all mainstream sources concur that Al Qaeda was responsible for 9/11" --- WTF? Are you joking? MY GOD. You are accepting the mainstream media's account? Do yourself a favor, kiddo, and don't quit high school after all. You obviously need more education than you received previously in those remedial classes. "Mainstream media sources agree" is your idea of verifiability, of reliable sources? LOL!
Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Washington, D.C., you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. --AW 16:35, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
Hi Aude, could you please review Talk:Hurricane Katrina#HoppinHill. You blocked this user back in May for the same thing he's doing now - 3RR violation by re-introducing his POV. Could you please comment (either on his content, or his conduct)? Thanks. – Chacor 17:50, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
You say: Please stop edit warring, and respect the three revert rule.
I say: I have not violated the three revert rule. (I did months ago when I didn't know about it.) Chacar violated the three edit rule yesterday. How is he/she immune?
You say: The Hurricane Katrina article has been developed through extensive discussion on the talk page, reaching a consensus for the present version of the introduction. Please respect the consensus and work with others on the talk page.
I say: New information continues to be released constantly. The current article is outdated and needed revamping. H. Katrina was less than 2 years ago, and new information continues to arrive, and will continue to do so for years.
You say: There are also numerous subarticles that discuss specific aspects of Hurricane Katrina in more depth, which may be more appropriate places to talk about Federal government involvement and responsibility. Though, WP:NPOV applies in the subarticles too. If you continue to disregard consensus and keep edit warring, you may be blocked from editing. Please stop.
I say: How do I gain consensus? I have been using the talk page. And I back up my additions with facts. And again, I have not violated the three-edit rule in a 24 period (other than months ago). The rules of wikipedia say: "If you don't want your work edited mercilessly, don't contribute." I don't mind my work being edited! I don't even mind it being deleted; I'll just put it back. But I don't understand my wiki editing rights being threatened as I am breaking no rules, using the talk page, not ever using "revert" and honestly trying to work within the system.

Ok, this guy BetacommandBot, brang like all my picutres back to life saying its ok to use them.
Plus I read the image uploads page, and they all meet requirements, look yourself, each image has everything you need to know about them.

Hi Aude. First off, I want to start by saying that I don't want to get into an argument with you, I don't want to create any harsh feelings between us, I respect you and your adminship, and I think you get the point. I do, however, feel that I have the right to argue against the tag which you placed on Image:Nancy Reagan RRPL debate April 2007.jpg for two reasons. (1.) I know that the image is not a free-use one, the kind that Wikipedia prefers, but it definitely worth having. I know that you displayed a few examples of somewhat recent pics of Mrs. Reagan, but what I was looking for when search for photos of her was something very recent, as to say something in 2007. We have a picture of her from the funeral in 2004, now I wanted something recent. The pics you listed for me were from 2005, so we would have one from '04 then from '05--I was looking for something more recent, which leads me to the second point. (2.) Recent (2007) free-use pictures of Mrs. Reagan are hard to come by, and I don't know if there's any at all. That's why I'm hoping that fair-use will please be allowed in this case, for 2007 pictures of Nancy Reagan are very rare, if there are any. I hope to give readers a look at Mrs. Reagan right now, something that will not happen if this photo is not allowed to stay.
This is my reasoning which I will also post on the image page. Best, Happyme22 05:48, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
Aude, I believe I've addressed your latest comments on Providence's FAC. Let me know if there's anything else. Thanks.--Loodog 22:34, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the help--Langloisrg 01:05, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Hi Aude, I saw from the Wikiproject Geography that you are interested in geography, so I was wondering if you could help me out. I read a WWII German eastern front soldier's memoirs and he described a geographic feature on the steppe he called a Rachel. He described it as a sort of depression in the ground, totally unexpected, deep enough often to hide a company and vehicles in. I got the idea that it was kind of like a cliff lined pass that randomly occurs in the steppe. I have no idea though, so I was wondering if you had ever heard of anything like it? the book is "Blood Red Snow" by Gunter Koschoreck.
--Jadger 07:24, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
alright, thanks for looking into it anyways. I'm not a geography specialist, but this has definitely picqued my curiosity... I always thought Steppes were flat land, with very little features. I wonder what it could be, hmmm.

Hi Aude. You are off to such a great start on the article W. Gene Corley that it may qualify to appear on Wikipedia's Main Page under the Did you know... section. Appearing on the Main Page may help bring publicity and assistance to the article. However, there is a five day from article creation window for Did you know... nominations. Before five days pass from the date the article was created and if you haven't already done so, please consider nominating the article to appear on the Main Page by posting a nomination at Did you know suggestions. If you do nominate the article for DYK, please cross out the article name on the "Good" articles proposed by bot list. Again, great job on the article. -- Jreferee (Talk) 18:32, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
