Indo-European theory

I agree that the Indo-European theory is unrealistic in many respects, and sometimes I find it hard to beleive: but to take it down, somebody needs to come up with a theory that can explain all the common words and linguistic features. (Decius)

Blocked Onion

Hi there, yes as a policy, Wikipedia will block open proxy servers and the TOR Onion routers because they have been such a popular ways for vandals to avoid blocks and cause problems. You'll have to use a more "nailed down" IP address to login. Thanks. Fuzheado | Talk 23:55, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

No problem, I figured as much. Cheers ;) --DB0 12:00, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

Articles on bands

Hello there, Db0. The formatting changes you have been making to articles on bands is a bit off from what we generally use. While I do find your efforts to be made in good faith, it simply is not the best way of formatting the articles. Adding wikified years to Discographies is redundant, since those are already inwikied within the Biography section. The order we use for band members is "Name - role", also. If you have comments or questions, feel free to contact me. --Sn0wflake 19:51, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

We do have something along those lines, but unfortunately it doesn't get nearly as much exposure as it would be necessary. As a result, I and Spearhead (the only other editor that actually cares) end up doing a lot of format fixing. However, your idea does seem plausible, so I am going to see wether I can come up with a project to deal more consistently with this matter. Thank you for the input and comprehension. --Sn0wflake 20:42, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
