Medieval cuisineHi Peter, I am so glad to meet you and receive your message in my talk page. The article medieval cuisine is such a good article that i decided to translate it in the first sight :) Thank you and anyone else who has contributed to this article. The only problem is that i can't cope with links since we don't have 1.815.000 article ^_^ I have to create a lot of new stubs too xD Well, Let me know if you need help from Turkish Wikipedia, or whatever. I am active day and night as long as i am not at school. Greetings from Turkey, ad Turkish wikipedia. P.S. By the way, how can we make it FA in Hebrew Wikipedia as well? :D It look very good and references are enough, I am sure they will give featured status to that article. (I am trying to make turkish verison a FA) But my problem is that I don't understand Hebrew... Even a letter of it =) It would be cool having it Featured in 6 languages.. English, africaans, chinese, possibly swedish, turkish and hebrew :) --Ozculer 17:05, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
ComicsJust noticed your comments over at the comics page. You made a lot of good points. I know we fell out before, but if I put some work into the article at some point over the next week or two, would you be prepared to chip in with thoughts on any progress and stuff? I noticed the wiki-break template, so if you haven't got the time, fair play. Steve block Talk 11:00, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
I have warned you about civility elsewhere, now I am giving a warning on your talk page. Please treat other people's opinion with at least a minimum of respect. Telling other editors to stop "Butting in" is very rude and a violation of WP:OWN, they are not your articles to tell people to stay away from. Blanking ongoing(within an hour of most recent response) talk page discussions that you don't like with the edit summary of "archived waste-of-time discussion" is very rude and downright dismissive of the opinions of others. Just recently you made this post: "Getting a fucking pat on the head at the end of it all isn't exactly a good way of smoothing things over". Every time I have any criticism of this type of behavior you get even more upset and rude, and you attack me by bringing up very old content disputes I have been in that are not even behaviorally related. Please get along better with other Peter, if you want a place to write articles where others cannot edit, get a word processor. (H) 15:07, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
DYK--Yomanganitalk 00:02, 8 June 2007 (UTC) June 2007 Wikiproject Food and Drink NewsletterWikiProject Food and Drink Newsletter June 2007 MedCabHey, Pete! I'm mediating your case at MedCab. H has agreed to join, and said he thinks it's great if the dispute could be resolved through mediation. However, I'm going to request if you would provide us with some specific diffs and a briefer statement, that's more to the point, with only specific incidents listed, that'd be better. Please list this in the "Incident summary" section. Thanks! Cool Bluetalk to me 01:46, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Inca CuisineI think that your name is Peter, so Hello Peter; some weeks ago you posted that you would like to work about the "Inca cuisine" article. I really don't know if this could be fusioned within the Peruvian cuisine. However, the Inca and the pre-Inca cuisine, it seems to me that they deserve their own article or a least a big section; anyway, I would like to collaborate together to bring about a strong content in relation to this subjects. Let me know what do you think. John Manuel-22:33, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Wikistalking is a frowned-upon activity. Too bad you're not taking H's good advice. Larry Dunn 00:50, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
I'd like to have you look at the Medieval age section of the article if you have time as well as the rest. I respect your opinion. I was going to put it up for FA, but I am not happy with a couple sections that do not have citations that are prior to my edits. Thanks, hope you are well.--Christopher Tanner, CCC 02:45, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Regarding Vasa (ship)From a recent edit summary: removed confusing Tangeberg reference padding; the section is based on Soop and fully referencable through that source. Well, fair enough. But I don't think Vasa (ship) is as well referenced as it should be. Could you perhaps add more inline references, pointing out which portions of the Soop work are the basis for the claims in that section? There is only one reference, plus a generic Soop source ref in that whole section, which is a bit on the thin side. The referencing in the rest of the article could also be improved, with a lot of unsourced claims and only a few generic book references. I'm trying to gradually improve it, but any help would be appreciated. :) Henrik 21:03, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

A small requestHi Peter! First of all, I'm not sure whether this is the preferred way of communication on Wikipedia, I'm a fairly new user. I write to you because I've listened to your spoken audio file for Leo Tolstoy, and was wondering if you could please do another one for the novel The Brothers Karamazov. If you don't have the time to do that, or any other reason, I'd still appreciate if you could tell me which syllable to stress in "Karamazov". I plan on reading the book and don't want to pronounce the name all wrong all the time in my head. :-) Thank you for your time! Greetings, busfahrer Estophobia vs RussophobiaHi, Peter! You votedfor deletion of the article Estophobia. Are not the same arguments applicable to Russophobia?--Mbuk 06:40, 14 July 2007 (UTC) Response: Life isn't a video gameI'm sure you meant no harm by doing it, but please don't add categories like Category:Super Smash Bros. items to articles like food or baseball bat. Categories should be properly relevant to an article, and sorting articles about common, everyday topics under extremely specific categories isn't the way to organize an encyclopedia.

Harrison Ford Importance ratingI noticed that you changed the Harrison Ford importance rating. I believe he should be a Category:Mid-importance_Chicago_articles based on the WP:CHICAGO Official importance scale that you can see on this category page. Do you not feel that he falls into the category of individuals that had (B) a prominent national and/or international role that had a large impact on non-Chicagoans and but had a limited role as a Chicagoans. I feel it is fairly clear that this accurately describes Harrison and his role to the Chicago project. I will revert you change and await comment if you disagree. Please respond to my talk page.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 19:23, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
LegumesNo, the 1% occurrence of legumes in medieval cookbooks is not relevant to the issue, considering the fact that other foods that the article (cabbage, turnips) appear with similar frequency, and some foods with an assumedly higher status (cherries, grapes, damsons) appear much less often. The fact that these foods are listed in cookbooks for the upper class is significant, but the frequency is much less so (it implies consumption, but does not necessarily correlate with consumption amounts) --Doc 16:04, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
August 2007 Wikiproject Food and Drink NewsletterWikiProject Food and Drink Newsletter August 2007 smoking and diaper rashReally, not much offends me, but if you are trying to imply that the odors of smoking are similar to that of the fecal matter being wiped from the child's buttocks in the painting you added, I must take flagrant exception. —freak(talk) 18:42, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
I did read the section and I see nothing that would mitigate the inclusion of that painting. Maybe you can find pictures of "classical Mayan pottery" depicting smoking, as stated in the section. —freak(talk) 19:04, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. master sonT - C 16:44, 5 August 2007 (UTC) I've joined itDear peter, i am starting to think you have not read the talk-page as i have written several thousands of characters onto it. Do not get me wrong, i see you have worked very hard on the article and brought it to a readable standard, close to FA-class indeed. I feel there is not an earth-shattering need to add in this factoid, but i neither feel there is an earth-shattering need to remove it either. And as i deem the article has not reached such a huge size that it would be kludged to read, then i do feel such a factoid should be added and that refusing such a revision is clearly against the spirit of wikipedia. If you want to write a FA-class article you should be ready to edit in whatever meets the joint threshold, and as i am not the only editor to propose this addition and it is not against any wikipedia policy I think that level of content is met. I've done some reviewing of fa-proposals and i feel that imho the most fa-valued articles are the ones that have reached their quality "in the spirit of wikipedia" as i'd put it. My main argument is that the Vasa is so much more than simply a wreck and archaeological project, it's part of the zeitgeist of that time and therefore non archaeologically related topics could be covered as well. In addition I'd like to point out that the Finnish wikipedia did feature this fact, and the Finnish wikipedia is the most rigorously control-edited wikipedia i know of (and i'm editing on five wikipedias.). If you say the factoid is only known in Finland, then i just think that is yet another reason to add it onto the English one. Gillis 10:56, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Common phrasesHey, whatever happened to my life-work? I put so much effort in there to make it more 'useful', more 'interesting', and to make more people say 'I like it', and now its gone! Ouch, to see that it took two more AfD's and two DRV's... Anyway, I've been away for some time -- is it true that sense and sensibility are becoming en vogue on Wikipedia or was this just a fortunate incident? — mark ✎ 07:21, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

SmokingPeter. While I appreciate what your trying to do with your revisions of the smokers page, please do not change them back again. The dangers of smoking are clearly disputed (it is known fact to be grossly over stated at the least). If you want more information regarding the figures, theres plenty of information on the FORCES international website. I'll give you a few links to check out. http://www.forces.org/research/files/400000.htm http://www.forces.org/evidence/pharma/pdf/fedspharm.pdf The language in the article is extremely biased in favor of anti tobacco. It needs to be revised (even well further than the small edits I made) in order to be considered a neutral article as many of the figures listed are disputed. (I am adding a neutrality disputed tag to it). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Naacats (talk • contribs) 21:05, 23 September 2007 (UTC) Naacats 21:09, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
So your basing your entire argument on one source? No I have not read Smoke although I intend to shortly. It's not just the small edits I made thats in dispute, but the entire tone of the article. Its clearly biased, and supports many facts that are simply not true (500,000 deaths per year? Your insane.) If the line I'm editing is supposed to be a quotation from Smoke it does not appear that way - it appears as if your presenting that line of information as undisputed fact.
