RE: Please adopt me
uSure, what do you need help on?Lihaas (talk) 04:28, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you! It's great to finally have a mentor. Is it official now by virtue of you accepting, or is there some kind of registration? I mostly just need someone who's willing to answer my many various questions as a new Wikipedian. Please take a look at my article that was just reviewed and rejected based on too much similarity to common law. And my article not containing enough info. I can prove that Maxims of Equity is no more justified in its existence. Apples and oranges, same circumstances, except my article contains less info right now.

User:Layman, Esq./Maxims of the common law
 * It can be its own article, no doubt. However its a stub of 3 sentences. It would need more substantial content. For example, DYK is a good barometer of article length. Would need about 3000 characters of content.Lihaas (talk) 02:49, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia editing should be less complex and more user friendly.
That may be easier said than done, but it's true, in my humble opinion. On this talk page, my humble opinion matters.

Adopt-a-user
Hello. This is a courtesy note to inform you that I have removed the "adopt me" template from your User page. You have not been active on Wikipedia for some time (July 2016). Its presence misleads others into thinking that you are still seeking to be adopted and to be guided by another editor under the Adopt-a-user scheme. Obviously, you are completely free to reinsert it if you return to active editing and want to seek adoption again. (Just 'undo' my edit in the history of your user page to put it back). For simple questions about editing, just ask any of us at The Teahouse. Regards from the UK, Nick Moyes (talk) 11:45, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
