Windchimes

• What's the deal with not calling them Claire's wind chimes? I must have missed something. Most items are So-and-so's such-and-such.--Hardvice (talk) 00:04, 1 February 2007 (EST)
  • Oh, well, that was sort of arbitrary. I was actually going through the wanted pages list earlier today, and there was only one "Claire's wind chimes", but like 4 "wind chimes", so I just changed the one to fit the majority. I guess a redirect would work. ... I think I may have also been thinking that we would eventually call it "The Haitian's wind chime", but that's not really an important point. Yeah, go ahead and change it back to "Claire's wind chimes" or whatever, that's fine. I don't usually have my brain turned on correctly at work, what with my students around me and all. And yes, I really did find a kid peeing in the sink today. I kid you not. - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 00:09, 1 February 2007 (EST)
  • Either way. I was just wondering if I missed another knock-down, drag-em-out.--Hardvice (talk) 00:17, 1 February 2007 (EST)
    • I considered "Loretta Lynn's wind chimes", but that just sounded dirty. - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 00:18, 1 February 2007 (EST)

Heroes/Herpes

I told you they were perilously close together. My new arch-nemesis: the world-famous template {{image-screenshit}}. I must catch myself typing that at least once a day.--Hardvice (talk) 18:08, 1 February 2007 (EST)

LOL - I remember you mentioned that .... Shoulda heeded your warning ... Even better, my son sometimes crawls on my lap when I'm typing, and bangs on the keyboard (btw, I blame him for all my typos). Well, once, I kid you not, he spelled a certain euphamism for the female genetalia. Mmm, that's my boy, that's my boy. — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 18:23, 1 February 2007 (EST)

Theories Subpages

OK, I got Template:Theories changed so we can point links to the subpages. I set up options for Theories:Miscellaneous, Theories:People, Theories:Items, and Theories:Events, but it's super easy to add others. The only difficult part is we'll have to go back to each page that uses the {{theories}} template and add page= to direct the link to the appropriate subpage. There are only 51, so it shouldn't be too bad. Then, all we have to do is move theories to the appropriate subpage and change Theories to be more of a gateway (perhaps set up Portal:Theories and just redirect Theories to it, even.)--Hardvice (talk) 01:51, 4 February 2007 (EST)

Yeah, I just noticed that. Great idea. Question: what if, down the road, somebody puts in "miscellaneous" instead of "misc", or "event" instead of "events" - does it throw everything off? Also, what would you like me to do? — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 01:56, 4 February 2007 (EST)
