On enwiki, there has been some off-and-on debate about whether or not to use the 's, but the general consensus has been to not use it, for some time now. If the rules aren't specifically different on Simple I would say it would be better off following enwiki's pattern.

POV?

Hi, Nifky! Thank you for your help. Could you tell me why 'Powerfully Poisonous' is POV-ish? :D Maybe it sounds like I like poison or something...^^ Well thank you! I just thought venom wasn't simple enough, so I made it thus. Classical Esther 08:49, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Hey, I removed the 'powerfully' word in particular because I felt it was indicating a statement from a point of view, saying it's very poisonous without any proper explanation saying how poisonous it was, so I replaced it with venom, (or simply just poison would do). Thanks for reminding that venom wasn't simple enough, it wasn't at BE 850, so I'll just replace it to poison. Feel free to ask any questions if you're interested.

Hello, Nifky, you're probably tired of me spamming your page like this, but I just wanted to thank you for helping me out in numerous articles and being so civil and quick to respond to my questions. So...

Hello Nifky?, Classical Esther has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better.

Hi

Thank you for helping me on my article on Renaissance medicine. You seem to be a wonderful editor here. Congratulations on the barnstar, too! I hope I can get as good at fighting vandals as you are someday ;). Classical Esther 08:46, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

• Hehe, thanks... you should install WP:TWINKLE if you want to vandal fight more easily. After a bit of vandal edits you can go to any admin to request for rollback at WP:RFR. Nifky^{^} 08:56, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for the tip! I'm really clumsy with those kind of gadgets, but I installed Twinkle anyway just now. I won't keep you from fighting vandals by detaining you here with my boring remarks any longer, so to cut a long speech short, thanks again, and God bless!

Sorry for bothering you...

But thankyou for improving the article on Peanuts. I am sure I did not intend to make it a "POV", whatever that means, and anyway thankyou for correcting it! Best Regards, Miss Tilney (talk) 07:11, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Oh thanks. I think I've explained what POV means to your sister before, but anyway it stands for 'point of view', meaning that if I said 'peanuts are very tasty and nice' that would be a point of view compared to 'peanuts have a shell'. Anyway, that was not your intention so that's fine and you're welcome to ask any questions in the future. :P Nifky^{^} 07:14, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Great job, Nifky!

• Thanks Esther. :) You've also beaten me at rollbacking edits as well... Nifky^{^} 08:23, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Thankyou

Thankyou for telling me that, Nifky?. By the way, why do you have a question mark after your name? :) Just curious... Mella Mouse (talk) 08:31, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

• That's ok. I liked the question mark, made my username unique.. P Nifky^{^} 08:41, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
