Re: Formerly LAR
That's a bit confusing. I assume you are not User:Lar, correct? Viriditas (talk) 21:55, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

I am not. LAR was my old username (my initials, actually, thus the caps) and I kept it in my signature for continuity when I changed to Grapplequip. However, now that you bring it up, the time during which it may have been necessary has come and gone. I'll just sign as Grapplequip from now on.--Grapplequip (talk) 22:04, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry if I wasn't clear. When one searches for User:LAR, they are pointed to User:Lar. Try it yourself in the search box. Viriditas (talk) 22:56, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

Righto. I looked him up. Thanks for pointing it out. Change made.--Grapplequip (talk) 23:35, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

Housefly on English wikipedia
Hi Toto Azéro,

On the English wikipedia, your bot ZéroBot added housefly to Category:Colonial American generals. I have no idea why, but you can see the diff here: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Housefly&diff=453587797&oldid=453585599. I tried to leave a note on this on the bot's talk page, but was prevented for some reason. Wanted to let you know in case the bot starts to run amok.--Grapplequip (d) 3 octobre 2011 à 02:10 (CEST) (moved from frwiki)
 * Hi ! Hum : you're in fact making a mistake : my bot just put the category (which was already present in the previous revision) above the interwiki-links. So my bot didn't add any category to this article ;-) Regards, Toto Azéro Follow the guide ! 16:34, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Invite to the African Destubathon
Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most geography, wildlife and women articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 55 African countries, so should be enjoyable! Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African wildlife articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance. If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing any article related to a topic you often work on, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Might be a good way to work on fleshing out articles you've long been meaning to target and get rewarded for it! Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 04:55, 13 October 2016 (UTC)
