Thanks to everyone

I'd like to thank everyone who, over the past couple weeks, sent emails or added a note here wishing me well. I am slowly recovering from a rather nasty bout of pneumonia and bronchitis, and will be back slowly, but I appreciate all the well wishes, and thank you all from the bottom of my heart. ArielGold 19:15, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Glad to have you back, dearest. :D GlassCobra 19:16, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Good to see your OK :) Tiddly-Tom 19:19, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You're both so quick! Thanks :) And hey, Tom, I owe you a giant thanks for all the help I see you've done for Daniella while I was ill. Thank you so very much for keeping a watch here, and for taking care of the issues that cropped up while I was out. I'm so thankful to have such wonderful Wiki-friends as you all, and I hope you know how much I appreciate all of you! ArielGold 19:21, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Ariel, welcome back. Sorry to hear you had pneumonia, I had it 3 years back and I know it completely winds ya! Hope you're feeling better now :) ~ Riana 00:53, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Great to see you back! Pneumonia and bronchitis... you don't do things halfway do you? -- Flyguy649 talk 05:31, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Good to be back, even if reduced activity a bit for now. Thank you all, Olive, Fozzie, Dreadstar, Kyoko, Riana, and Flyguy, for the warm wishes, I'm so glad to be able to sit up for a bit, frankly while languishing in bed all day may sound fun, after a few days, it does get old, lol. ~*Hugs for everyone*~ ArielGold 15:11, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! I'm really glad you're back. Sorry to hear that you were really sick. I once was sick for a couple of months a few years back, ii's not fun! :D Leamarie411x2 (talk) 19:48, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

Hello ArielGold, welcome back! I hope your Christmas and New Year were good. Do you like your new shiny rollback button? :) Best wishes. Acalamari 20:16, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Acalamari!! Thank you so much, aside from the pneumonia, I guess my holidays were without event, lol. What new button? lol. I don't see anything different! What did I miss while I was sick? ArielGold 20:18, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry to hear about your illness, I hope you feel better now. With new buttons, admins now have the ability to grant MediaWiki rollback to other users (see my user rights log). The feature is still under discussion (of course), and it was implemented during your break. You were granted rollback by LaraLove a week ago. You should see the blue "rollback" button in page histories, in contributions logs, and in diffs. Acalamari 20:27, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ahhh! Well that is interesting. I do recall reading the proposal for that a while back, so great to see it was implemented. Hopefully it works out well! Thank you so much for the well wishes, Acalamari! ArielGold 20:29, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome. :) Acalamari 20:31, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ariel, it's so great to see your smiling face around these parts again! Glad to hear you're ok, and happy to have you back! --MikeVitale 20:23, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is true, I live! ~*Giggle*~ Thanks Mike, great to see you as well! ArielGold 20:29, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Glad you've recovered from illness. RlevseTalk 21:39, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Welcome back; we've missed you (as I'm sure you've noticed), even though some of us (*cough* me *cough*) have not explicitly demonstrated it. Wishing you much joy, peace, and health, your most humble servant, Agüeybaná 00:55, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Woot! It's so lovely to see you back, but you missed all the drama! :P Either way, glad you're all better. :) Best, Keilanatalk 01:19, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So glad to hear you're back among the living. Rocketmaniac (talk) 05:15, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you all :) Keilana, you should be glad I missed that, lol. Thank you for your emails, they cheered me up when I read them! And Squid Guy, always wonderful to hear from you, as well as you, Rocket :) (And a big hug for R, too!) ArielGold 15:22, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, in a way, I was grateful you were sick, I was afraid you'd have a heart attack. :P Best, Keilanatalk 20:33, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

STS-122

Just so you know, before you are doing the same thing tonight. I'm gonna upload some pics of the ECO repair and the feedtrough connectors. And so good to see you online again. --TheDJ (talkcontribs) 21:11, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome, I hadn't planned on uploading anything tonight, so that is great that you'll be taking care of that! I'm still crossing my fingers for this mission! ArielGold 21:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yay

Mmm that is all. :) KnowledgeOfSelf | talk 00:58, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I vigorously second the motion! Get well soon. God Bless, Shir-El too 01:07, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It is soo good to have you back Ariel, I was so worried... -- Anonymous DissidentTalk 05:19, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome back! We missed you! Jmlk17 10:14, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I missed all of you too! Thank you so much for the warm wishes! I think I went through a bit of WP withdrawal, lol. I was having dreams about editing. Think this is a bad thing? ~*Giggle*~ ArielGold 15:23, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Interpretations of 2001: A Space Odyssey

Hi Ariel, I saw you on the adopters' page, and that you were willing to give an opinion on space-related issues. I have just added a lead section to the article on Interpretations of 2001: A Space Odyssey, which is in a pitiable state. IMHO, of course. I had tried earlier to do something about the Interpretation on the 2001 movie article, but was instantly reverted by two editors for OR and unsourced material. The new paragraphs are more acceptable I hope, but I wonder if you could look at them, and at my justification on the article talk pages. All I really want to say is that Clarke's book really cannot be ignored when seriously interpreting the movie. Thanks! Wwheaton (talk) 10:08, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wwheaton, unfortunately, I've neither read the book, nor seen the movie, so I'd probably be unable to offer any kind of input. My areas of interest are in Human Spaceflight, not in fiction, I'm sorry to say. The best I can offer is that the issue of original research is a valid one. While you may have interpretations, without reliable sources to verify the interpretations, they become personal opinions, and aren't encyclopedic. The best thing to do is to find books, or reliable news/media articles that discuss various interpretations, and use those as sources to explain the known interpretations that are out there, citing the sources, and not adding anything that may be considered original research, or adding anything that appears to take a "side" in the article. Keep in mind it is not an encyclopedia's function to analyze or offer opinion, but to simply summarize what already has been reported in other sources. I'm sorry I cannot be of more assistance with regards to the article, but I'm sure that there are others on the talk page who would be more than happy to offer their help with the page. Cheers, ArielGold 15:19, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

oh hai!

/me waves @ Ariel Still digging up from all that spam people sent you? :IМиша13 17:22, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A belated welcome back from me too. I'm so glad to hear you're doing better. *hugs* ~Eliz81(C) 23:03, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sad article needs your magic touch

I'm sorry to hear that you've been sick!! I hope you're feeling better!!

The article for Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_adams

lists only a few of his books, and those few aren't formatted correctly; when you have time, and are feeling up to it, do you think you could whip this article into shape?

Thanks!! xo

PS: There's a sort of listing of Adams' books at the bottom of this page

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogbert's_Clues_for_the_Clueless

Should this be included in his article?

More sad news that I hope is reversed. This is not a good thing. Keilana|Parlez ici 03:44, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
