Avi, I'm sorry to hear you've withdrawn your arbcom candidacy. You would have had my support. -- MPerel ( talk | contrib) 18:25, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
I can see the logic of placing bookmakers as practicioners of outcomes of games of chance, as being appropriate in the context of actuaries' development as a profession. You seem to delete such references. Why? Many professions have evolved from different backgrounds, and the reference to mathematicians' involvement in chance outcomes seems to be proof that gambling practicioners preceeded the actuarial professionals. Tayana 03:00, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
Your response does not refute comment in context, but introduces "statistics" . Please explain clearly why I should not revert? Tayana 00:42, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
--- The use of statistics is universal in most disciplines and is irrevelant to the current discussion. Here we are talking about chance outcomes; of life expectancy or winning an event. Bookmakers(directly) along with acturies(or their employers) have a finincial interest in the outcome of chance events. Accordingly the comparison is relevant. Tayana 00:58, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Islamic extremist terrorism. KazakhPol 04:00, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
I'm being disingenuous? Correct me if I'm wrong: It seems you're trying to insert a prominent accusation that Khalidi denies Israel's right to exist, based solely on a statement saying that one has to understand from the Palestinians' perspective that they've been under occupation since 1948. Then you're wanting to say he's an anti-Zionist, apparently based on no more information. Can you explain these accusations? I'm not being disingenuous; I don't think it's appropriate. The bias here, incidentally, is in the implication that Khalidi is entirely opposed to Israel's existance. Of course, that would turn Khalidi into an extremist. I'm no expert on Khalidi, but I don't think he is such an extremist, or that there is any justification for trying to label him as such, or even that his critics really suggest or have evidence that that's what he is.

Hi,
You have put yourself as interested in helping out at WikiProject on user warnings. We are now at a stage where we are creating the new templates and are wondering if you are still interested? If so please visit the overview page and choose a warning type you wish to work on. There is a base template available here, which you can copy and use to get you started. Have a look through the redirects and see what old templates are affected and incorporate them into the the new system. Anyway, any questions please don't hesitate to give me a shout. Regards Khukri ( talk . contribs) 08:39, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
Reverted, yes, but it is still in the history and needs to be expunged. -- Avi 13:22, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for the consideration you gave to my RfA. To be chosen as an administrator requires a high level of confidence by a broad section of the community. Although I received a great deal of support, at this time I do not hold the level of confidence required, and the RfA did not pass. You were one of the oppose votes, and raised concerns. I am more than willing to discuss those concerns with you if you are interested. Please let me know. Sincerely, -- BostonMA talk 03:33, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
I can't say we are happy with each other, but my 3RR report ended up with no blocks but warnings all around from Dmcdevit, and there is talk on the talkpage and no reverting (except once by Mackan who blundered in not having followed the 3RR page and was immediately and rather harshly blocked for 3 days, but he'll be back.) Anyway, you could leave it protected for a while (it is, I believe, the right version to protect) while we talk, or you could go ahead and unprotect now. Either way. I don't think anyone is going to be fast to revert.
I am lazy now to provide diffs, but really the talk page, starting with SlimVirgin's "Reverting" subhead shows the shift to discussion. Jd2718 03:37, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your [ [1]], which I've just accepted. I'd be grateful if you'd check my answers and let me know whether I've overlooked anything. If not, please would you post the nomination for discussion.
Thanks again. Jakew 16:31, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
An editor has asked for a deletion review of MSM-07 Z'Gok. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Moreschi Deletion! 21:34, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
Avi ... I finally talked to a Mohel, and sounded like he does frenectomies about as often as might be expected in a US Hospital circ. He does them for the same problem, that is the newly (post circ) tightened shaft skin now pulls on the glans via the frenulum. Quick flick of the nail. "It looks better." "The penis may not heal properly otherwise" ... that was his main concern.
Sorry, lots of inflammatory language, but what do you think about this [ [2]]? Is Periah a "religous requirement"? Would Milah be sufficient? Isn't there a religous concern about doing harm?
We should cover this issue in the Topic.
We should also discuss the high rate of UTI infection that has been found post traditional ceremonies.
I assume you don't have a frenulum, because that's the only case where I could personally discount accounts of sexual harm from circ related frenectomies.
You know I think on average circs may not effect male sensation (in a net negative way). Cases of phimosis and frenulum breve and poor hygiene ... maybe 30% of uncirced guys have relatively poor sexual response. That might equal the guys that lost or suffered significant damage to their frenulums.
I think it's always bad for women. TipPt 04:48, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
An editor has asked for a deletion review of 123 Pleasant Street. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review.
I think that it is good that you get notice. Would it be alright if everone who participated in AfD's, DR or edited this article also got notice, or is that only appropriate for the Admin? Edivorce 17:22, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
I am not suggesting inviting disinterested persons to the debate. I want to provided notice to editors who's work has been destroyed. That is not canvassing. It is fundamental fairness. Would you please reconsider. Edivorce 18:44, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
An editor has asked for a deletion review of Dino Maamria. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Robotforaday 15:40, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
You know I'm honest, strong, and persistant. Please help me properly (cited and up front in the article) inform readers about the sexual implications of frenectomy. I won't push the UTI stuff, or mention the Bris. TipPt 00:36, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
for the "canvassing" warning. MrEguy 01:39, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Sorry that I accidentally reverted your addition as well, I'll be more careful next time. I also wanted to thank you for immediately assuming good faith in your correction of my mistake! // Laughing Man 05:24, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
How did you come to delete on this? -- badlydrawnjeff talk 13:41, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
I also see you speedy deleted Big John Bates. A7 is for articles that fail to assert notability - this article claimed that "Big John Bates is also the first Rock and roll band to add a Burlesque group - the Voodoo Dollz - to create a live touring show...he first revivalists to take burlesque on the road, playing clubs throughout Europe and North America. Although they are a Canadian group (from Vancouver), much information on them has been featured on Europe's VH1 and America's A&E_Network. National TV shows in many countries have also featured BJB's sexy cross of music and dance." Please undelete. -- badlydrawnjeff talk 13:47, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello! I need the above article kept as is because the List of IHMS alumni Paring Bol-anon are ALL priests while the other one has people who ARE NOT priests, did not become priests, are lay (staff and faculty), are out of the priesthood. Please undo. Thank you again! -- Ate Pinay ( talk• email) 16:50, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for your support on my RfA, which closed favorably this morning, as well as for the kind comment that accompanied your !vote. I appreciate the confidence the community has placed in me and am looking forward to my new responsibilities. Please let me know if ever you have any comments or suggestions, especially as I am learning how to use the tools. Best regards, Newyorkbrad 18:38, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Now,can you please help me make the List of people of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Seminary as the one with the the priests + the private and public sector while the List of IHMS alumni Paring Bol-anon has ONLY ALL PRIESTS with no public and private sector. Thank you. I don't know how to return the favor...-- Ate Pinay ( talk• email) 18:42, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Hey! Thank you. You gave me the idea. I really did not think about that. Thank you so much!!! Enjoy the rest of the weekend! -- Ate Pinay ( talk• email) 20:02, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
I noticed you gave me a warning about vandalism to Huntley, Illinois. Please tell me what vandalism you are refering to. If it's about the Pacific Islander status, the information is true, may be off by a little bit, but I just was tired of the area being marked
when there are actually Pacific Islanders living in town. I will try to get an exact figure. The other thing was just a spelling error I fixed.
Additionally, I am a regular user with a real login, however I often forget to login. Please don't assume that I'm committed to vandalizing Wikipedia simply because I have a IP registered to NIU. I know about those people who were told by their professor to vandalize Wikipedia, but please don't assume that I am one of them. I love Wikipedia and I hate vandals and I even revert vandalism myself under this IP address. I also make great contributions to Wikipedia and I'd appreciate it if you would remove the warning status for something that is completely NOT vandalism. Thanks. 131.156.238.75 02:53, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi Avraham, I'm simply wondering if you've seen my repeated question about the Folke Bernadotte page. I'VE ASKED YOU NOW FOUR TMES, each politely, if you'd be willing to unblock the page. An entire week has gone by, with you continuing to edit daily. I'm not really sure what you're doing, but it comes across as not entirely civil. DO YOU NOT HAVE A POLICY OF RESPONDING TO QUESTIONS? If you would please respond, I'll be happy not to ask again tomorrow. Thanks, Mackan79 16:42, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
All the BMA citations link to a blank in references. The website page is http://www.bma.org.uk/ap.nsf/Content/malecircumcision2006?OpenDocument&Highlight=2,circumcision
Can you fix it? TipPt 17:43, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
Avi,
As you've doubtless seen, I've withdrawn. I've received many great comments, including some really good advice. I've thought about some of the comments left my those who opposed, and I found myself in agreement with some. Some more experience in other parts of Wikipedia would not be a bad idea. So I'm going to take some time and digest it all. I think I'll try again in future.
Anyway, thanks for your nomination. It means a lot, and it's given me the opportunity to learn a great deal. Regards, Jakew 18:12, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
Please know that I'm very careful with your references coding, and respect the amount of work completed!
Thank you for fixing the BMA again, but I think a revert made it bad again. See line 472 [6]? If it was my fault, sorry, and I'll try to make sure it doesn't happen again.
Don't you think we need to put this sentence into [7] at line 232:

Lander’s, in researching neonatal circumcision without anesthesia, found that without exception, newborns in this study who did not receive an anesthetic suffered great distress during and following the circumcision, and they were exposed to unnecessary risk. Two of 11 newborns in the study who received no local anesthetic had potentially dangerous episodes within minutes of the procedure. One newborn lost muscle tone, stopped breathing several times and vomited. The other choked and stopped breathing briefly. [8] TipPt 02:55, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
I'm wondering why you removed all the redlinks on the List of summer camps page (and possible other incomplete lists)? Is this a new Wikipedia policy I am unaware of? Redlinks serve a useful function; they allow people to add names of institutions or people who need to be written up later, they capture information worth following up on by experienced Wikipedians, and they allow unsourced additions to be vetted. There are dozens of camp names that may or may not re-appear as bluelinks on that page someday. So I'm wondering under whose authority you decided to delete these additions? Thanks!
