Hi! you might be interested in helping Wikiproject North Dakota off the drawing board. -- AlexWCovington ( talk) 22:32, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
You may not remember this as it was a few days past, but you reverted a correction I made to the Star Trek page. On that page, discussing the animated series, I had changed the clause, "the liberal reuse of shots (pioneered by Jonnie 'Roy' White) and musical cues as well as occasional animation errors has detracted from the reputation of the series" to use the word "have." You reverted this change, asserting that the use of "as well as" required the verb to agree with the number of the precedent noun to "as well as," in this case the word "reuse."
I disagree. That is true only when "as well as" is being used as a preposition. Here, it is being used as a conjunction, synonymous to "and." I believe that, in such cases, the verb should agree with the compound plural noun that results. You would, I think, agree that if the sentence used the word "and," the verb "have" should be used.
If you have a citation to a style manual or English usage manual that supports your view, could you please leave me a note to that effect? Otherwise, I will be reinstating the change. Doug ( talk) 23:50, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

In your image of "equation editor" in Microsoft word 2007 the name is inappropriate. The image shows the new "Equation Builder" technology, while referring to it as the obsolete "equation editor". The old equation editor continues to be available in office products as an OLE control, while the new "equation builder" treats equations as part of regular formatting. 58.246.141.67 ( talk) 00:29, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
Hi. As you recently commented in the straw poll regarding the ongoing usage and trial of Pending changes, this is to notify you that there is an interim straw poll with regard to keeping the tool switched on or switching it off while improvements are worked on and due for release on November 9, 2010. This new poll is only in regard to this issue and sets no precedent for any future usage. Your input on this issue is greatly appreciated. Off2riorob ( talk) 23:39, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
