Thanks

Thanks for the support. This is seriously driving me up the wall. I didn't want it to become anything big, that's why I didn't feel the need to report it in the first place, I just went to explain to the user that what s/he was doing was disrespectful, but that obviously didn't work. And now I'm the one who needs to work on their Wiki etiquette? — Status {talkcontribs  23:44, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Re: Loud

I can't help but think you have failed Loud just because I commented on the prose of E=MC2, even though you said you were "willing to wait" for the GOCE. Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 01:30, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Oh, I did. I don't deny what I do, but you are wrong on one part. I did not fail the article because of your rude and ungrateful comment and/or behavior, but because I have waited one month, and it still does not meet the criteria. What I did do because of your comments, is decide that I will not continue waiting, which I have been doing as a favor (they are supposed to close within 1-2 weeks). So no, I failed because you nominated an under-prepared article, I closed the nomination now, yes, because of your hypocritical comments. Last thing, you do not notice this, but several other reviewers do, you are, forgive me, a hot-headed kid who thinks they are smart beyond their years. You still don't understand basic criteria, and act as though you know all of the above, when from the look of Loud, you clearly don't. I have done nothing but give you help and advice until now, and you, dear Calvin, have done nothing for me in return. The least you can do, is not be disrespectful and rude, and go rambling about your GAN on my own work-page.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 01:37, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
Well, I'm sorry that you felt I was being rude and disrespectful, that wasn't my intention and never would be. I was literally saying it as it is and was surprised and confused at the differences between what you told me to do and what you have done. You know I value your thoughts and opinions on things, and that you have been really good to me on here, which I have been very appreciative of. I don't think something like this should come between us, I didn't mean for or expect some comments about prose to be this much of a problem. Btw, for you to say to say I am "a hot-headed kid who thinks they are smart beyond their years" makes me think you have been talking about me and that you have had this opinion of me for some time? And I think it's a bit unfair of you to say I have done nothing for you in return, I did, after all, review 14 of your GANs. Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 01:49, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
I have not thought this for some time, but I know some editors have. After this though, that's what it appeared to me. Understand Aaron, you barge into an already uncomfortable review, and start listing your issues with Loud that don't even have merit. It honestly just felt like you were trying to fault me with stuff (you were as a matter of fact, accusing me of being a hypocrite). I obviously do not want to not have a friendship with you anymore (I am not Legolas), but I felt pretty slapped from this. Yes Calvin, you reviewed 14 articles (I never asked you to) of your favorite singer (not what I'd call labored reading). Anyway, let's honestly drop it and move on, I don't enjoy Wiki drama.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 01:53, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
Well, it makes me feel a bit...I don't know what word I am looking for, that you think that of me, I would have thought that you would have thought differently considering that you, out of anyone on here, most probably knows me the most, you can tell from conversations with people on here what sort of person they are, and I don't think that is how I have come across, and it saddens me to think that people think that of me, and even more so that people have been talking about me in that way behind my back, when they don't even know me. If they have a problem with me, they need to say it me directly. I only commented on the review because I didn't understand why you told me to remove things which you have included, that is all, it just surprised me when I saw it. And I know I didn't have to review them, but I did, and I (unknowingly) got in pretty deep shit for it! lol. And it's not just articles on here that are too long that I get bored reading, it's anything in life, if I find something to go on longer than it needs to, I lose interest, so don't take that personally. Anyway, it's late here, it's 3am. Bye. Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 02:07, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
I think that after this, you can at least take my word for it. I do not think that of you, and grew very fondly of you, I consider you really close here. So don't think that. I was just explaining to you how you were coming across, that's all. Not to worry Aaron, all is forgotten and forgiven :) Have a good sleep buddy.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 02:12, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

A last-minute attempt at diplomacy

As you are obviously well aware I have requested a formal re-assessment of Endgame. However, it appears that thus far, the only activity consists of you and I at each others throats. If you are open to the idea, I would like to close the formal re-assessment, and with it, the animosity between us. I will start from scratch and re-post Endgame at the GA nomination to await another editor to objectively review the article and go by that. Ultimately, I would like to put this dispute in the past, but I will not back down from continued hostility.

IF (AND ONLY IF) my assessment of your behavior as dismissive/neglectful/whatever was mistaken, than I apologize for escalating the issue by asking for a formal re-assessment. If my assessment of your actions was correct then I stand by my actions. That being said, I can't know your motives for a fact, so I suppose I must give you the benefit of the doubt, but ultimately you can take what you wish from that.

I await your opinion--L1A1 FAL (talk) 04:04, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

OK, I will leave the discussion page open. If you don't mind though, I would like to add a notation on there that you and I have reached an understanding, so there is not any over-reaction to the argument. Regards, --L1A1 FAL (talk) 04:44, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

"Against All Odds"

Indeed its massive. I was thinking how to get that one to FAC. Anyway, what do you mean by split? --Efe (talk) 04:55, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

I actually didn't get it at first because you said you wanted to split the page. That could mean moving part of it to another single page. Yep. Reviewing. --Efe (talk) 05:00, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
Fine with me, but I don't think if I can keep up with your pace. I actually intend to bring that one to FAC and skip with GAN. --Efe (talk) 05:06, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
But I cannot assure you when that would happen. As you can see, I have some three on queue. Also, this one entails scourging the whole internet world partly because I don't have copies of books that mention the song, the movie, etc. But I can see some at Google Books, so that would be of great help. --Efe (talk) 05:58, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
Oh, that's nice. Hope that's available in the Philippines. --Efe (talk) 12:05, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
I am reading the article using my phone, but I can't edit there, too laborious. I will revisit my previous comments, and start from there. Thank you. --Efe (talk) 14:17, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Where

are you going for a month?! Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 22:20, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Going to another state. To the mountains in New Jersey :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 23:21, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
Ooh, for a holiday? Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 23:24, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
Nope. I just need to leave my hometown, you know? I had some crazy personal issues like a month ago it was just a really horrible experience. So I need to go away, on like a getaway lol. I'm going to be there like 3 weeks to relax. I'm going with a few friends :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 01:15, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Cool. Road trip?! Or flying? haa. Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 01:17, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Hello

Hello, I see you are a member of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Britney Spears and I am inviting you to join a discussion at Talk:Till the World Ends#Tracklistings. about the track listing format on the Britney articles. I would appreciate some opinions. Thanks Nicholas (talk) 00:58, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Britney singles

Hey, could you comment here? BTW, when are you leaving? :P Xwomanizerx (talk) 02:39, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Commented :) I believe my last day here will be Sunday, but I will already be far less active by Thursday. I'll be back by mid-October. Going to the New Jersey mountains. I'm going on like a program (no, not rehab lol.). I've gone through a lot of tough personal stuff, and haven't really been happy :(. Its an opportunity to go on like a personal journey and get away from everything I know here. I need to get away for a while. I'll be back though 100%! MC's discography is not finished yet :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 04:30, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi

Yes I did. I already posted a thread at the Graphics lab :) Where are you going? Wait, I can see that you're going to NJ? And, personal issues. I hope they're not that serious! Sure, I will help. What do you want me to do for you? Novice7 (talk) 04:22, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Oh my God! Dear Jesus! That's really really terrible! I can't believe it. Yes, you need to go and get relief from all the stress. I don't know if you're religious, but if so, pray. I'm sure it'll give you peace :) I'll of course look after MC discography and the pending GANs and FAC. I'll try my very best too. Tbh, I could see that something was bothering since last week (?) I wanted to ask you, but then didn't want to interfere in your personal issues :) Novice7 (talk) 04:51, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Your review

Thanks for reviewing Star of Love for me, you're right it was in haste and after looking through several other nominations I realised this pretty quickly. I realise I should have just withdrawn the nomination, just forgot >.< Apologies for wasting your time. I have now tagged the article re: the points you made so hopefully someone else will show an interest in the future - I'll stick to improving other articles! =) Nikthestoned 08:17, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

No problem :) If you need any tips or have any questions, please feel free to ask. Note, I will be gone as of next week for a full month, so any assistance needed would have to be before Sunday.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 11:41, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

I

..read about what happened to you. I hoped you would have spoken to me about it. We could have shared secrets. Whatever happened was really pathetic I guess. Hope you feel rejuvenated after your trip and don't worry. Life teaches you valuable lessons and maybe this was one of them and I'm sure this will actually make you strong. I don't have any of you in FB also to keep in touch. If possible, send me a mail from your id. I can link you up. Don't worry about MC. I have finished working on the draft and will paste it in your sandbox. (I just wish Rossrs wouldn't have disappeared). You are coming back though right? — Legolas (talk2me) 13:06, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Yes Nat. You could've shared with any of us :) I'm a Hindu (I follow Hinduism) *peace* Definitely, God is there. Without him, nobody can survive in this world. I grew up very religious--you know, temples, prayers etc.--and I always pray out loud when I'm in any trouble. Almighty has never failed me. He was and continues to be there for me :) I know both MC and WH are very very religious. Also, whenever I feel down, I listen to The Preacher's Wife soundtrack. The album praises God and that's all we need :) Take time out, and while at NJ concentrate on "getting some much needed rest" lol like MC working on Charmbracelet :D And I totally agree with you: All religions are the same. "We are all striving to be closer to God, we just do it in different methods". Novice7 (talk) 13:13, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Hey Avi. Thanks a lot for your kind words buddy :) Well, I know your busy so I didn't want to burden anyone. I would really love to chat with you on Email or Facebook, I'm sure we can exchange experiences; I'll send you a link to my FB page, and then you'll have my email as well, so mail me back so I'll have yours as well. Yes well, its been something in progress, but its come to the point where I really need to focus on myself. My mind has just been so polluted and stressed lately, I don't sleep at night anymore :( Of course I'm coming back! I should be back by mid-October, leaving by Sunday. I'll miss you guys very much, and thanks a lot for the support and help with MC :) I guess we'll forget about him!--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 13:15, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Thanks you Mags :) Yes, that is definitely what I'll be doing! I've had my Glitter, and now off to Capri for CB :D I totally agree, at the end of the day, we are all the same :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 13:15, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
My mail id is there in my userpage. Send me a link, I'll hook ya up, lol. And as I said, don't worry. Wherever you are, remember your friends are always here and you can find them whenever you need them. (Am I going too gay?) Mags I don;t know, any seaside or riverside place always attracts me to the divine. You won't believe, I'm at Puri now Mags. — Legolas (talk2me) 13:18, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
I just mailed you :) Thanks a lot guys! It really means the world to me, you don't even know! Lol, not at all :) I think that's just you becoming a big softy and not knowing how to deal with it :D--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 13:20, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
@Legolas: You did get a bit cheesy (LOL, JUST KIDDING) Omg, you're at Puri? Very cool. Okay, I just finished my prayers, that's why I sound preachy lol. The chants you here at temples, Legolas, when I hear them I feel like I'm in heaven. God looking after me :)
@Nathan: We're all here to help Nathan :) Although you're going to record CB, I'd really love to see a TEOM :D Take care and don't lose hope in God :) Novice7 (talk) 13:25, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Sorry maybe, I am rude, but happened Nath? You are my close Wikipedia friend, and I would like to know, however, I will not be mad, if you mind not telling. I can understand nothing from the dialogue, sorry :/ ! Tomica1111 • Question Existing? 13:31, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

@Mags: Lol, he's evolving from Rude Boy status to big softy :) Yup, that is what I hope to accomplish! A big comeback :) Emotionally, mentally and physically!
@Tommy: Hey Tommy, no not at all, of course I'll tell you :) Basically, I've been going through a lot of personal issues, I had a horrible experience about a month back, and since then, my mental and emotional state of being has been in decline. I've been depressed and sad, and I really need to get away. I'm going across the US, to a mountainous region, and am going to go for a month and focus on myself, and letting out all the negativity. Its like a small journey, a self cleansing :) I really need it. I haven't been sleeping at night for a while now :(--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 13:36, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Nathan, I send you a mail. Basically did you consult any doc regarding the insomnia? — Legolas (talk2me) 13:42, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Ouuuh ... I am deeply sorry :(. I hope you get better and come again here with more power and positive energy, and also with everything good in your life. Forget about Wikipedia, but not forget about us, cause we gonna miss you around here until October :) ! And btw sorry for bothering you about "Disturbia" Live performance picture and "Rehab" screenshot, we all will get by. ;) ! Greetings and have a nice trip ! Tomica1111 • Question Existing? 13:46, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Yup I responded. Yes, I have. Well, I already have high-blood pressure (yeah, this young) so with anxiety too, its left me with insomnia. I was going in for a sleep study next week, but postponed it until I return (hopefully I won't need it anymore). That's why, this is really a body/mind/soul thing for me. Thanks Tom, well, I still have a few more days, so I will get you a nice ass screen-shot :) As for the photo, I could not find any free ones :(--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 13:48, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
No problem, just be cool. And you are too young, I think when you comeback you should just get the party started and Drink to DeatH :P. Lol kidding. Tomica1111 • Question Existing? 13:52, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Nat I accepted you on FB. Tom how old are you ma'dear? — Legolas (talk2me) 14:10, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
I am eighteen, will be nineteen on 11 November :)! Going to university, first year on 15 September. You?:) Tomica1111 • Question Existing? 14:18, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
I recently became 27 and I'm happily married for the past one year. :) He he I'm much older than all you guys round here. — Legolas (talk2me) 14:20, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Lol, I saw your picture on your Wiki page and I thought you are like 20 or something, you look young, or maybe the pic is old :) ! Interesting ... Tomica1111 • Question Existing? 14:22, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Gotcha :) I am 20. Avi, you may be older than a handful of us, but that is nothing in comparison to the Brian/Malleus group, and let's not forget Kevin. They are all 40+ (Brian is a senior!)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 14:24, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Nat, I think he means among music editors. Most of the music editors (including me) are teenagers lol. Novice7 (talk) 14:27, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Shhh, I'm trying to make him feel not so old :P Yeah I know, but we have many older editors in the biography/insects (WTF? lol) sections :).--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 14:29, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Nahh Tom, I just look young, people have said that to me before also. Nathan, nothing compares to User:Moni3, she's 83 and going on strong. Love her like crazy. :) — Legolas (talk2me) 14:33, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Lol 83 AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHA ! My grandma that is actually 74, and she doesn't know to say computer (компјутер in Macedonian) xD ! Novice how old are U?:) Tomica1111 • Question Existing? 14:34, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
83! I feel so proud of her :) Novice7 (talk) 14:36, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Don't be fooled by her age. Her tongue is sharper than a butcher's knife and so is her English and prose quality. I respect her with all my heart and she is one of my five inspirations in Wikipedia. — Legolas (talk2me) 14:42, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
No, no ... Don't get me wrong, I also feel proud of her and respect. I saw she has 17 FA. That's great. I was just making comparison with my grandma that has no idea about technology. Tomica1111 • Question Existing? 14:44, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Ha ha Tom, I understood. Actually not many people will understand most of her comments, but they are just beyond witty. Anyhoo, looks like Nathan dropped off. Take care buddy and here's to hoping you meet a fine mountain lassey (or lad?) — Legolas (talk2me) 14:58, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Scans

Hey Nathan! I just wanted to let you know that you don't have to scan "Genie in a Bottle" for me. I already got the scan from another user :) Novice7 (talk) 12:56, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

Cool. The scans I need are: All Whitney songs (except "Exhale", "I'm Your Baby Tonight", "I Will Always Love You", "Saving All My Love for You" and "Greatest Love of All"), Toni Braxton's "You're Makin' Me High", "Let It Flow" and "Un-Break My Heart". Thanks, Novice7 (talk) 13:03, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
Thank you. Yeah, Spiceitup08 and I are gonna share "Genie in a Bottle". I hope it works out between us lol. I'll also be completing each article (including MC's) bit by bit. Novice7 (talk) 13:07, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
Lol. Let's see. I've had no luck with Candy, but much with you :) and Calvin and Tommy have had no luck together lol. Maybe? Hehe. I'm gotta get all these damn reviews up so I can either pass them or fail them by Sunday :D, and I also want to finish "LB" and "NTF" before I go. Busy, busy!--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 13:32, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
What have I had no luck with? Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 13:36, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
Lol. Collaborations. I had no luck with a user Candy, and you and Tommy hit a rough patch as well.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 13:37, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
Ohh. Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 13:39, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
Mhmmmm. Don't be getting paranoid now :P--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 13:42, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
I'm nottttttttt! Why would you think that? lol. I wasn't expecting you to say that, so openly. Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 13:49, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

Got the scans! Thanks heaps Nat! Novice7 (talk) 04:19, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
