Milk and cookies!
 -- [midnight comet]  [talk]  18:13, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Aw, thanks MC! I had a tough day, milk and cookies was just wanted I needed. :) Javért  &#124;  Talk 03:41, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
 * How's school treating you, buddy? The V-Man  (Said · Done) 14:32, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Pretty good. I've had a massive amount of homework, but that's to be expected. :) Et tu? Javért  &#124;  Talk 19:17, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Still got a couple of weeks before class. Get my fancy breathing machine Friday, so I'll stop feeling dead all the time. The V-Man  (Said · Done) 01:24, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
 * That's good news, I hope that it helps you be able to sleep better. You've been a pain lately. :-p. Javért  &#124;  Talk 01:36, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

I have not! I demand evidence in the form of diffs! The V-Man (Said · Done) 01:41, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Uh, no diffs yet.. uh.. remember that one time, the other day, when you said that stuff? That's what I mean. :) Javért  &#124;  Talk 01:42, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Wait, I say stuff? Who authorized that?! The V-Man  (Said · Done) 01:47, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

I don't now how to source...
The information exists concerning the Curtis article. Google it and it has been a problem in Jamie Lee Curtis's life. Could perhaps site it for me? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.159.230.55 (talk • contribs)
 * Yeah, I've done so. I apologise if my comment seemed crass or rude. However, I don't really think it belongs in the first paragraph, as it is mentioned later on in the article. But as long as it is sourced, I suppose it is okay. Regards, <font style="color:#4682b4">Javért  &#124;  <font style="color:#50C878">Talk 06:48, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Not to be overly critical, but it seems odd to me that you didn't call this anon out for inserting the completely unsourced claim that she was a heroin addict, which I've just removed. That's a far cry from the post-surgical morphine dependency she acknowledge in the relevant cited articles, unless I've missed something. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 00:37, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Weird
Want to know something weird. I've been editing for about half-an-hour subconsciously without even thinking about it. I can't even remember what I did! Anyway, that's not what I came here for, I was going to ask you this:

Is there any way, now that that old edit counter is down, to check you edit average per day. I'm really obsessed with it, I need to know!!

Well, happy Pakistani Defense Day! <font color="Green" face="High Tower Text">Lord Spongefrog, <font color="blue" face="High Tower Text">(I am a flesh-eating robot) 20:56, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Did you know...
Hello! I noticed that you've been reviewing a lot of nominations at the DYK suggestions page. Thank you for your help, and I hope you will continue to contribute! As you know, you don't need to be an administrator to review hooks or to move hooks to Preparation area, so your help is more than welcome.

You may already be familiar with the DYK rules by now, but in case you aren't, you can check out the official rules and the Additional Rules. You may also want to look into some useful tools that can allow you to review nominations more quickly: the Cut & Paste character counter is a helpful JavaScript to calculate the length of hooks, and DYKcheck is a script you can install on your own Wikipedia account for more heavy-duty verifying.

The best way to learn is by doing, but here is also a quick reference of the things to check for each hook you review:

Thanks again for your help! I look forward to continuing to work with you at DYK, and if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask me or anyone else at DYK. Now get to reviewing some noms!  Dylan 620  (contribs, logs)help us! 12:48, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

No cute kittens, but welcome anyway :)
Message me regarding: "Looking for a new challenge. :)" There is so much to do, working on rescuing articles is only one facet. Building up membership, tagging articles for deletion, newsletter 2, technical issues, creating awards, etc. {| style="border: 4px solid #CC0000; padding: 6px; width: 80%; min-width: 700px; background: #FFFAF0; line-height: 20px; cellpading=30" align=center Hi,, welcome to the Article Rescue Squadron! We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying and rescuing articles that have been tagged for deletion. Every day hundreds of articles are deleted, many rightfully so. But many concern notable subjects and are poorly written, ergo fixable and should not be deleted. We try to help these articles quickly improve and address the concerns of why they are proposed for deletion. This covers a lot of ground and your help is appreciated!
 * colspan="2" |


 * Hehe, thank you for the kind welcome. Please let me know how I can help in regards to the different facets of ARS. While rescuing articles is the main reason I joined, I'm also interested in working on the newsletter, building membership and working on awards. Let me know. Regards, <font style="color:#4682b4">Javért  &#124;  <font style="color:#50C878">Talk 22:12, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, that is wonderful.
 * We need to add content to WP:ARSN the newsletter.
 * Look at the first newsletter for ideas, and be bold.
 * If you have any ideas of new features, let me know.
 * I was thinking of an inclusionist/deletionist debate between two prominent editors. We already have a featured editor we interviewed. Maybe you can interview a brand spanking new newbie editor, to include in the newsletter.
 * User_talk:Benjiboi said he would do a motto contest for ARS, announced in the newsletter. Asking him about this, or maybe let him know you started it and run with it on the newsletter page, since Ben seems distracted lately.
 * User:A Nobody wanted to do a rescue contest, announced in the newsletter. Based on Article rescue contest, the first one, for the discussion, see Wikipedia_talk:Article_Rescue_Squadron open the hidden section up.
 * Building membership: I go through AfDs and see if editors who keep are members already, it is okay if you invite someone who already is a member. Whenever you feel it is appropriate, add  to an editors page.   We have a shortage of admins, and veteran editors, so if you have any in mind, give them the template. If you have any ideas how to recruit, let me or the ARS know.
 * Awards: we have editor number 300 coming up quickly, and it would be great if there to be an award for this member. Look at existing templates on the main page for inspiration.
 * BE BOLD. let me know if you have any ideas.
 * thanks for your interest. Let me know if any of this interests you. Ikip (talk) 05:56, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Let me thoroughly read over everything that you've provided and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I'm a college student so my time during the week (M-Th) is very limited, so I don't want to bite off too much. All that you have suggested so far seems interesting, but after researching everything I'll pick the two things that I think that I can help the most with and dive full force into that. Again, thanks for the kind welcome and information. :) Regards, <font style="color:#4682b4">Javért   &#124;  <font style="color:#50C878">Talk 06:02, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

 * "This user continues to edit, despite your block"

Well now I am embarrassed :) But happy to, as I wrote above, we need more editors like you. Welcome aboard, once again. Ikip (talk) 06:03, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

Corotoman
Javert, I just authored a start article for Corotoman, a colonial plantation in Virginia. What could I do to make it more worthy of the Did you know? honor? Thanks! --Caponer (talk) 04:35, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Let me read the article and then review your hooks and I'll get back with you in a few minutes. :) Regards, <font style="color:#4682b4">Javért  &#124;  <font style="color:#50C878">Talk 04:37, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
 * You're the best, Javert! I look forward to receiving your thoughts and suggestions! --Caponer (talk) 04:44, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
 * First of all, the article is quite interesting and everything checks out fine for DYK (length, date, etc.). However, neither hook is very eye catching. The first one is the better of the two, but still doesn't really *grab* the reader. How about something along the lines of "Did you know...that in 1729, when his plantation Corotoman was destroyed, Robert Carter I lamented in his diary about the total destruction of his wine cellar?" To me, that's a tad catchier as you wonder, "why wasn't he upset about the plantation?" What are your thoughts? <font style="color:#4682b4">Javért  &#124;  <font style="color:#50C878">Talk 04:47, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Javert, thank you for taking the time to read and comment on the article. Your suggestion for the hook reads terrificly and I had actually thought about using that fact, but was working on the wording. You absolutely nailed it. Thank you again for all your contributions to Wikipedia! --Caponer (talk) 04:53, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Aw, thank you for your kind words. :) I made pretty much the same comment at the article's nomination at T:TDYK, if you'd like to make a comment there also. Regards, <font style="color:#4682b4">Javért  &#124;  <font style="color:#50C878">Talk 04:56, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

igloo
Hi Javert, and thanks for your interest in igloo. Before using the program, please read the following information carefully - failure to do so may result in your test access being revoked.

igloo is a JavaScript-powered, browser-based anti-vandalism tool, which means you do not have to download or install anything on your computer and it will work on multiple operating systems. However, it does mean that the performance relies on that of your browser and it may operate more slowly than downloaded programs. You must have either Mozilla Firefox 3+ or Google Chrome to use igloo, as it is currently incompatible with other browsers.

igloo relies on a system called iglooNet to assist you in finding and reverting vandalism. It is this system that transforms the program from a pretty version of recent changes to an actual anti-vandalism tool. Naturally, this is beyond the power of a client-side program, and igloo will regularly communicate with an external, non-Wikimedia server. Because of things like server logs, and the iglooNet abuse tracker, this may allow your IP address to be attached to your username - something which is otherwise impossible on Wikipedia. If you do not want this to happen, you MUST NOT USE IGLOO.

If you decide that you do want to test igloo, please keep in mind that it not wholly stable, and you may experience problems where it performs an invalid edit, or other unwanted action. If this happens, fix any mistakes you've made, apologise to anyone you've offended, and let me know. I don't take any responsibility for your use of the program - if you aren't willing to fix any errors, don't use it.

igloo is already quite powerful. The following is a simple guide to using the program:
 * The igloo interface is similar to that of other software, including huggle. Recent changes appear on the left, and diffs appear on the right.
 * igloo sorts diffs based on iglooNet data so that edits most likely to be vandalism are displayed first. You can press spacebar to view the top diff, or click on any diff to view it directly.
 * When you find vandalism, press 'Q' or click the revert button to revert the change, and issue a warning to the user. igloo automatically issues the correct warning. It will ignore existing warnings that are more than 5 days old, and restart from the beginning.
 * The iglooNet assertion system tags clean and dirty edits with colour coding - if it suspects an edit is vandalism, it will be flagged as red, and if it believes it to be clean, it will tag it green.
 * At any time, you can re-review diffs you have already seen by pressing backspace to move through the diff history.

If you have any questions, comments, suggestions or other feedback, I'd love to know. If you hate it, and won't be using it again, please let me know why - and I'll remove you from the test whitelist. If you now try and use igloo, you should find that it will allow you to use the program. Thanks, and good luck! A le_Jrb <sup style="color:blue;">talk 09:02, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Hey, thanks for the comment :). I have to say, I find it hard to think of something to write (normally I browse BBC news), so it was quite nice for me when this article came up, and I've done some fencing myself, not quite to his standards though, lol.

Also, I've been trying to branch out into new areas and such.

My machine is working well, but it will take some time to recover my sleep debt. I kind of look like Darth Vader with it on. :-) Glad to see you branching into new areas, being bold.

Pro alcohol POV IP back

Hi, you helped with some rollbacks on this person's spamming that I reported at ANI. The IP is back, and perhaps being a bit more subtle, but I think his/her additions continue to be inappropriate. I've just been rolling stuff back without warnings. I guess I should start warning and report at AIV, but I need to run now. Can you give a second opinion on his/her behavior? Thanks! Katr67 (talk) 23:47, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, just checking his latest few contribs it isn't as bad as last time. It's turning into more of a content dispute than vandalism (I agree that his edits are still POV, but now it's more than just simple vandalism), tho, perhaps attempting to open up a dialogue with him would be a good idea.
