hi, i need help
Hi, I want to do a biography on my band Rage Addicts, I'm very new to wikipedia, and the editing, what is proper and what isnt, My page was deleted, it said that if we want a bio written, it needs to be done by an editor so that it may be neutral, which is great, i was wondering if i can have help with this, it'd really be great if you could help, I started writing it, but was deleted =[, so i read a bit on the policies, and was wondering again if you could assist me, thanks so much

Content disputes
Please do not refer content disputes to ANI - that is the wrong venue, and it only frustrates the editor when he gets shuttled around. Thanks - KillerChihuahua ?!?Advice 10:54, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Noted your opinion. To me, it read more like a complaint about user behaviour, which is not the same thing at all. A le_Jrb talk  18:36, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I shall, of course, endeavour to check more carefully in the future. A le_Jrb talk  18:40, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I appreciate your taking the extra care in this - as I said, it can only be frustrating for the editor seeking help. Thanks much! KillerChihuahua ?!?Advice 21:58, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Igloo and future rename
Hello Ale jrb. On October 27, I am going to be renamed to "Meaghan". Just letting you know in advance so you know to update the igloo whitelist. If you want, you can add "Meaghan" before the 27th and just remove "Midnight Comet" after the rename. Cheers, -- [midnight comet]  [talk]  23:08, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Handled, cheers. A le_Jrb talk  08:17, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

Probable vandalism
User:Midnight Comet just let me know that igloo has been marking my vandalism cleanup efforts as probable vandalism. Is this something I have to fix on my end or is it just a glitch I don't have to worry about? Thanks! --NellieBly (talk) 23:56, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey. This implies that your edits have been reverted as vandalism by someone using igloo, and you have not yet expired from the system. I shall remove you. :) A le_Jrb talk  17:33, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
