:Thank you so much for the approval! I must admit it was long waiting but totally worth it. Now I will try to get another [[StarCraft|article]] approved... :) ([[User:Chunbum Park|Chunbum Park]] 20:20, 25 April 2011 (UTC))


You can find some more information about our collaboration groups if you follow this link [[CZ:Workgroups]].You can always ask me on my talk page or others about how to proceed or any other question you might have.
::Well done, Bruce!  I see absolutely nothing lacking in the approval mechanics.  You've earned your approval rating ;) [[User:D. Matt Innis|D. Matt Innis]] 02:13, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Hey Bruce, cheers for the heads-up on the romanisation topic on the forums. :) I see you're a poet and author...cool! I love to write, but I'm not sure my writings pass muster.--[[User:Yim Kai-mun|Yim Kai-mun]] 02:01, 8 April 2007 (CDT)


== Caliphate ==
Bruce, will you send me an email address so I can show you what Soleiman sent.  I'm at Anthony_Sebastian@msn.com.  Thanks.  [[User:Anthony.Sebastian|Anthony.Sebastian]] 22:34, 28 April 2011 (CDT)
 
My Oxford Dictionary gives the form without the 'h' too, but Wikipedia spells it with an 'h' in its articles on both Caliph & Caliphate, so it's probably just an alternative transcription. Unfortunately there's so far no Arabic at [[CZ:International]]. [[User:Ro Thorpe|Ro Thorpe]] 10:46, 25 February 2008 (CST)
 
Of course I only noticed the final ‘h’ – I blame the pesky italics… I googled around a bit, and it would seem that 'khilafah' is indeed the –ate version, as you suggested. As for which page to use, I think it’s better to use the addressee’s talk page, as it announces ‘you have new messages’. Nice talking to you - [[User:Ro Thorpe|Ro Thorpe]] 16:45, 25 February 2008 (CST)
 
==Gonzales==
Check out Gonzales now.  I think I fixed it by editing the page.  Sometimes the categories do not take after the metadata pages is changed until a minor edit to the article page helps resolves the categories.  I'm not sure why that is the case. [[User:Chris Day|Chris Day]] 13:17, 5 May 2008 (CDT)
:Bruce, nice job slogging through all those abc changes. [[User:Chris Day|Chris Day]] 17:14, 5 May 2008 (CDT)
 
== Townes Van Zandt ==
As a poet, I am sure you would love some of the lyrics of [[Townes Van Zandt]].  He was much more a poet and not such a good singer.  Check out some lyrics on the web.  The likes of Willy Nelson, John Prime, Lyle Lovett, EmmyLou Harris and many others have covered his tunes.
 
Look for these lyrics for a few good samples:
* Flyin' Shoes (covered by Lyle Lovett, who sang it at Townes' funeral)
* Tecumseh Valley (crushing dispare)
* Pancho and Lefty (made famous by Willie Nelson)
* When He Offers His Hand (Gospel)
* White Freight Liner Blues
* No Place to Fall (wife and I love to play this one)
* If I Needed You (covered by several people)
 
Here's ''Maria'', really depressing:
 
*Artist: Townes Van Zandt
*Album: No Deeper Blue
*By townes van zandt
 
*I stood in line and left my name
*Took about six hours or so
*Well, the man just grinned like it was all a game
*Said they'd let me know
*I put in my time till the pocono line
*Shut down two years ago
*I was staying at the mission till I met marie
*Now I can't stay there no more
 
*Fella 'cross town said he's lookin' for a man
*To move some old cars around
*Maybe me and marie could find a burned-out
*Van and do a little settlin' down
*Aw, but I'm just dreamin', I ain't got no ride
*And the junkyard's a pretty good ways
*That job's about a half week old besides
*It'd be gone now anyway
 
*Unemployment said I got no more checks
*And they showed me to the hall
*My brother died in georgia some time ago
*I got no one left to call
*Summer wasn't bad below the bridge
*A little short on food that's all
*Now I gotta get marie some kind of coat
*We're headed down into fall
 
*I used to play the mouth harp pretty good
*Hustled up a little dough
*But I got drunk and I woke up rolled
*A couple of months ago
*They got my harp and they got my dollar
*Them low life so and so's
*Harps cost money and I ain't got it
*It's my own fault I suppose
 
*The pocono's down but the chesapeak's runnin'
*Two freights everyday
*If it was just me I'd be headed south
*But marie can't catch no train
*She's got some pain and she thinks it's a baby
*Says we gotta wait and see
*In my heart I know it's a little boy
*Hope he don't end up like me
 
*Well, the man's still grinnin' says he lost my file
*I gotta stand in line again
*I want to kill him but I just say no
*I had enough of that line my friend
*I head back to the bridge, its getting kinda cold
*I'm feelin' too low down to lie
*I guess I'll just tell marie the truth
*Hope she don't break down and cry
 
*Marie she didn't wake up this morning
*She didn't even try
*She just rolled over and went to heaven
*My little boy safe inside
*I laid them in the sun where somebody'd find them
*Caught a chesapeak on the fly
*Marie will know I'm headed south
*So's to meet me by and by
 
*Marie will know I'm headed south
*So to meet me by and by
 
(It doesnt have quite the same feel without the music and tempo)

:: I like to say that it is funny that no one expects George Clooney or John Wayne to have written the movie dialog, but the general public just assumes the singer or least his band, must have written the lyrics. [[User:David E. Volk|David E. Volk]] 12:57, 7 May 2008 (CDT)
 
== OK, what am I missing that you are fixing? ==
 
:-)  Seriously, I'm apparently doing something wrong with formatting, but it looks as if you are either inserting or deleting a blank line...I think. [[User:Howard C. Berkowitz|Howard C. Berkowitz]] 13:41, 7 May 2008 (CDT)

HUBO is due for final Approval today
