Thank you
Thank you for the words of encouragement. Erechtheus (talk) 21:52, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the gentlemanly/womanly manner in which you go about this web page and encourage quality in editing, e.g. The Snow Queen. I also liked your pointing out the article on cruft, which is something to be avoided and corrected.--Drboisclair (talk) 13:15, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, and a clarification of intent
Thanks very much for your input re the discussion about WP:N as it relates to FOSS, and specifically NoteEdit. Just one clarification re your comment, "declining to improve an article on the grounds that it has inherent notability to a subset of Wikipedians isn't likely to help it, sorry." My apologies if that is how it came across, I decided not to work on the article itself because a) I'm not familiar enough with NoteEdit, and would certainly make mistakes, and more importantly b) I was hoping to encourage a wider discussion, and felt that an unchanged article would help focus attention on the process rather than on the individual quality of a single article. I hope that is a clearer explanation of my intent.

Best regards,

 * Aha! I'm sorry if I misinterpreted you. I sincerely hope NoteEdit is saved. Let me know if there's anything I can do. Aylad ['ɑɪlæd] 15:41, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

 * That's awesome, thanks for the heads up. I never would have done anything had you not started events in motion. Best, Aylad ['ɑɪlæd] 04:11, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

RE: Main Page Talk
To me, it's blatant out and out trolling. But I've put it back for you. Regards, GARDEN  14:25, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Collapsed the trolling though, because that's obviously what it is. Left the feeding in plain sight though.  GARDEN  14:28, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

no
Hello. Would you mind if I stole your "no" userbox? (e • nn • en!) 23:08, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Be my guest. :) Aylad ['ɑɪlæd] 20:47, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Handwritten note
Ugh, sorry, forgot to uncheck the automatic templating box. Anyway, it's not really a good idea to have a duplicate copy of an article in article space; if you need to do some sandbox-type stuff, why not copy the article into your userspace sandbox? It could be confusing to have two articles that say the same thing in mainspace. Writ Keeper &#9863;&#9812; 13:22, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I meant to put it in Userspace. It's been a long time since I did much editing and I forgot the ropes.  Sorry!  Please delete the page immediately.  Aylad ['ɑɪlæd] 13:24, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Nah, no worries. It's not the first time someone did that, and I bet it won't be the last. :) I'll stick a g7 on there too, to maybe get it fast-tracked a little bit. Thanks! Writ Keeper &#9863;&#9812; 13:26, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
