Hey, Administrators...
My user page doesn't display the proper notification that I'm blocked. Someone should fix that.

It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

Non Free Images in your User Space
Hey there Delta1989, thank you for your contributions! I am a bot alerting you that Non-free files are not allowed in the user or talk-space. I removed some images that I found on User talk:Delta1989/Archive 1. In the future, please refrain from adding fair-use images to your user-space drafts or your talk page. See a log of images removed today here, shutoff the bot here and report errors here. Thank you, -- DASHBot (talk) 04:54, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
 * That was added by another user; I merely archived my talk page. --Delta1989 (talk/contributions) 12:52, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Arbcom
Given that: Would you be interested in taking this case to arbcom? I can initiate the request if you wish. ♠  TomasBat   00:27, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Jpgordon wrote at his decline reason: "I've now blocked this account directly. Given that this is a block-evading alternate account of a user banned for abusive behavior, that was started immediately after that ban, ArbCom might be willing to take the non-abusive nature of this account under consideration; but the mere fact that you've gotten away with it for over two years doesn't make it OK."
 * You are still around.
 * You would? Thanks! I really appreciate your help. By the way, might I ask why you retired? --Delta1989 (talk/contributions) 01:30, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I retired because I wanted to concentrate more on some other stuff - like writing. But I'm planning to return to activity sometime soon. Regarding the arbcom request, remember that most probably we really won't get anywhere (the last request was unanimously declined), but we lose nothing with trying :) So I'll initiate the request when I have time. ♠  TomasBat   16:19, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks! It's worth a try. I do appreciate you coming out of retirement to help me! --Delta1989 (talk/contributions) 23:28, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

Community ban lifted
Seeing as you have edited for some time without problem, I see no reason for the ban to continue. No one has argued that you should remain banned and accordingly there is no justification for continuing it. I'm going to take your good behaviour under this username as an indication that any problematic editing as Defender 911 won't be repeated. WJBscribe (talk) 16:15, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

Defender 911
You are involved in a recently-filed request for arbitration. Please review the request at Arbitration/Requests and, if you wish to do so, enter your statement and any other material you wish to submit to the Arbitration Committee. Additionally, the following resources may be of use—
 * Arbitration/Requests;
 * Arbitration guide.

Thanks, ♠  TomasBat   01:08, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Just as an FYI... the ban has been lifted.--- Balloonman  NO! I'm Spartacus! 16:15, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the ban being lifted. I can't find the ArbCom case anywhere, though... --Delta1989 (talk/contributions) 17:24, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
 * As the ban was lifted, the ArbCom request was removed as it was no longer necessary. Here is the link to the latest version of the case, if you want. ♠  TomasBat   17:47, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the link, and the unblock is again appreciated. I'll do my best to be productive! --Delta1989 (talk/contributions) 23:10, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

Added template for SuggestBot
Hi,

Thanks for being one of SuggestBot's users! I hope you have found the bot's suggestions useful.

We are in the process of switching from our previous list-based signup process to using templates and userboxes, and I have therefore added the appropriate template to your user talk page. You should receive the first set of suggestions within a day, and since we'll be automating SuggestBot you will from then on continue to receive them regularly at the desired frequency.

We now also have a userbox that you can use to let others know you're using SuggestBot, and if you don't want to clutter your user talk page the bot can post to a sub-page in your userspace. More information about the userbox and usage of the template is available on User:SuggestBot/Getting Recommendations Regularly.

If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me on my user talk page. Thanks again, Nettrom (talk) 01:43, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Do you remember me?
Hi Defender :) It's been a long, long time and I just wanted to know if you were still around. Good luck :) :) :) ♠  TomasBat   03:23, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Gee, I'm surprised at how quick your reply was :) When I saw the "You have new messages (last change)" orange bar, I couldn't believe it :) My edits have sort of slackened too :) But I guess I'll always come back and edit every once and then. Hey, I'm really happy to talk to you again :) Remember when the block occurred, and then you came back and we went to Arbcom and everything was solved? It all seems so far away, so long ago... I was just checking my talk page archive and I'm kind of nostalgic :) Especially as lots of users I knew left long ago and I never heard of them again. Well, have a good life and may you have good luck wherever you go, ♠  TomasBat   03:50, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Wikimania 2012 bid, DC chapter & next meetup!

 * 1) At WikiXDC in January, User:Harej proposed that DC submit a bid to host Wikimania 2012. A bid and organizing committee is being formed and seeks additional volunteers to help. Please look at our bid page and sign up if you want to help out.  You can also signup for the bid team's email list.
 * 2) To support the Wikimania bid, more events like WikiXDC, and outreach activities like collaborations with the Smithsonian (ongoing) and National Archives, there also has been discussion of forming Wikimedia DC, as an official Wikimedia chapter.  You can express interest and contribute to chapter discussions on the Wikimedia DC Meta-Wiki pages.
 * 3) To discuss all this and meet up with special guest, Dutch Wikipedian User:Kim Bruning, there will be a meetup, Meetup/DC 16 this Tuesday at 7pm, at Capitol City Brewery, Metro Center. There will be a pre-meetup Wikimania team meeting at 6pm at the same location.

Apologies for the short notice for this meetup, but let's discuss when, where & what for DC Meetup #17. Also, if you haven't yet, please join wikimedia-dc mailing list to stay informed. Cheers, User:Aude (talk)
