 * What? Additional accounts? The last username left was taken (talk) 07:31, 31 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, User:(Abuse of our Username policy) was created from your computer a few days ago. Wikipedia's policies don't allow users to operate more than one account except in very narrowly defined cases. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 17:09, 1 November 2010 (UTC)


 * According to what, CheckUser? The last username left was taken (talk) 12:55, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Hello, The last username left was taken; I am not a checkuser but, the Checkuser you are addressing here left This link on your talk page to the policy page that explains the use of multiple accounts.  Cheers.  Mlpearc   powwow  15:05, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I am aware of the multiple account policy. However, I was confused about the existence of the account. The last username left was taken (talk) 22:38, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, according to technical evidence from checkuser. I'll ask again; why are you creating multiple accounts? Hers fold  (t/a/c) 15:36, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Several of the IP addresses that I edit from are shared between multiple people, it's possible that one of them created it. The last username left was taken (talk) 22:38, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Black Falcon /User page edits
Hi! I edited your user page to remove a few categories which did not belong (including two mainspace categories), and I did not read your editnotice until after I had already clicked "Save". So, I just wanted to let you know about this edit. Cheers, -- Black Falcon (talk) 01:14, 8 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Thank you for pointing out your edit. It is not a good idea to edit someones user space without first discussing it with the user. Mlpearc   powwow  01:22, 8 November 2010 (UTC)


 * In my experience, most editors do not mind such minor changes. However, I did not realize that you do, and so please accept my apologies.
 * Now, as to the substance of my edit: please remove your user page from Category:Logic and Category:Profanity. According to the categorization guideline, user pages should not be placed in content categories. Thank you, -- Black Falcon (talk) 01:28, 8 November 2010 (UTC)


 * This Editor dose not mind someone bringing something to my attention. As far as the Categories they are within userboxes. Mlpearc   powwow  01:32, 8 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Actually, if you'll look more closely, they are appended after userboxes which you (I assume) substituted into your user page. As for your edit summary: I understood, I will not edit your user space anymore. Thank you, -- Black Falcon (talk) 01:38, 8 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Apologies accepted. Good Day. Mlpearc   powwow  01:46, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Removal of cn tag from a BLP
This edit is confusing. I'm asking for a source for information in a WP:BLP. You've removed the request for a source with the comment, "Don't see the need for this "Now"?." I do not understand what you are trying to say. - SummerPhD (talk) 15:47, 19 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Both Grant and Tori's pages are approx. 5 years old and now you need references to "Where they were born" ? It just seems a little late to request that. If this is a requirement for "All" BLP pages then I stand corrected. The pages are well established. Mlpearc   powwow  15:53, 19 November 2010 (UTC)


 * It doesn't matter how old the pages are or when the info was added. Any info in any article can be challenged if not supported by a cite to a reliable source. While this is especially true for controversial information about living people, it is not limited to them. - SummerPhD (talk) 20:38, 19 November 2010 (UTC)


 * If you feel that having a reference there is needed then there is nothing else I need to say. Cheers Mlpearc   powwow  21:32, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

GOCE / Drive – Final push
Greetings GOCE Backlog elimination drive participant, We are now coming up to the last few days of the drive, the last for 2010. Currently, it looks like we will achieve our target for reducing the backlog by 10%, however, we still have huge numbers for 2009. We have 55 participants in this drive. If everyone just clears 2 articles each, we will reduce the backlog by a further 110 articles. If everyone can just do 3 articles, we will hit 165. If you have yet to work on any articles and have rollover words, remember that you do need to copyedit at least a couple of articles in this drive for your previous rollover to be valid for the next drive. There are many very small articles that will take less than 5-10 minutes to copyedit. Use CatScan to find them. Let's all concentrate our firepower on the first three months of 2009 as we approach the end of this final drive for the year. Thank you once again for participating, and see you at the finish line! – SMasters (talk) 04:05, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Chalmers Goodlin edit errors
Hello Mlpearc. Thank you for you welcome. Because I'm new I don't understand why my edit is getting re-edited and why my references are not being accepted as verifiable. This is the message I got from TNXMan.

Please do not add unsourced content, as you did to Chalmers Goodlin. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. TNXMan 18:42, 4 January 2011 (UTC).

I'd contact TNXMan but don't know how yet and you invited me to ask questions. I appreciate that.

If you would look at the Chalmers Goodlin wiki page edit you will see that I am referencing quotes from Chalmers Goodlin himself. The statements made about Goodlin's life that I edited out are fantasy from the movie The Right Stuff and Chuck Yeager's opinion of why Goodlin did not get to break the sound barrier in the X-1. The quotes I use are from Goodlin's own mouth and are historically accurate.

I would appreciate your assistance on this. I don't want to be blocked by TNXMan for trying to edit historically inaccurate statements. Just because the statements I edited out came from a book or movie does not make them accurate.

Thank you for your time and help on this. Burnelli1 Burnelli1 (talk) 22:48, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Turning Ten
Mlpearc I also copied your Southern California clock and posted it on my user page if this is o.k. with you? please advise.

On Saturday January 15, 2011, Wikipedia will turn 10 years and people all over the globe will be celebrating Wikipedia on that day. No event is currently planned for Orange County Wikipedians, so I am leaving a message with some of the currently involved editors listed in "Wikipedians in Orange County, California" & "Wikipedians in Southern California" to see if we might want to meet on that day, lunch, dinner, group photo or other ideas welcomed? I will start a "Turning Ten" discussion thread on my Talk page to see if any interest can be planned for and determined.

Deletion criteria
You tagged User:Mlpearc/Valentino (1951) [a redirect from your userspace to Valentino (1951 film) ] for speedy deletion under criterion R2, a redirect from the book namespace to any other namespace or from mainspace to any of several namespaces. I've deleted the page, but under criterion U1 (deletion requested by own user) — in the future, please don't tag pages in your own userspace for R2 deletion. I'm not complaining at you: it's simply that an admin might decline the speedy simply because that criterion doesn't apply and because the admin doesn't observe that you requested deletion in your own userspace. Simply tagging for U1 speedy deletion will be more certain of getting the page deleted. Nyttend (talk) 05:06, 9 January 2011 (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) 19:31, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:33, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
