message: "We already have Wikipedia:WikiProject The KLF, Wikipedia:WikiProject Pink Floyd, Wikipedia:WikiProject The Beatles" was used as a keep argument, but comparing Tenacious D to The Beatles or even Pink Floyd is quite ridiculous.

Talk:Selma, Virginia

message: Using Google Earth, I was tracing a route through the Selma area along interstate 64, and I noticed that every street in Selma had an oval route number shield with numbers in the 1000-1011 range, in addition to local street names (e.g. Route 1003 is also Donovan St, Route 1007 is also 14th Street).  The shield shape is the same one used for state highways. Why are all Selma streets marked as if they are state highways?  If Selma is unincorporated, I can figure that all rights-of-way are technically highways, and state or federal or county highways, but every single street in the hamlet?

Talk:Dutch rabbit

message: Firstly, I've never really looked into editing Wikipedia so I have no idea what I'm doing right now, sorry for anything I screw up. I'd just like to point out a couple problems with this article. First there is some conflicting information. From the second paragraph: "Although the name suggests that the Dutch rabbit is from the Netherlands, it was actually developed in England." and from the "Appearance" section further down: "The Dutch rabbit originated in Holland, near the birthplace of the Netherland Dwarf."
Looking into this I found a slightly more concerning problem. The first source (http://www.greenpatchrabbits.com/) has no information whatsoever about...well, anything. It appears to be a broken search engine.
I'd love to fix this but I'm way out of my element here. Thought I'd just try to let you guys know about it in the hopes that somebody more suited can correct the problems. I hope I've gone about this in the correct manner, and I apologize if I've not.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.10.60.14 (talk) 23:51, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: If by "tails" you mean the part of their physical structure at the end of their spines, then most likely your tail-less rabbit had its tail chewed off in the nestbox. This is called "over-grooming" and occurs when the mother excessively cleans the kit. Sometimes they also remove ears, or legs.

Talk:I Guess I'll Have to Change My Plan

message: It's actually well known that the original version of this song was written as "I love to lie awake in bed" at Brant Lake Camp in the 1920s where Arthur Schwartz was a counselor along with  Lorenz Hart and other future stars of the musical comedy world. His son Jonathan can provide dates and other data.
The original lyric:
I love to lie awake in bed
Right after taps, I pull the flaps* above my head
and let the stars shine on my pillow
o what a light the moonbeams shed
I feel so happy I could cry
and tears are born right in the corn-er of my eye
to be at home with Ma was never like this
I could live forever like this
I love to lie awake a while
and go to sleep with a smile
