Revert on Aaron Sorkin
You may not have noticed, but I was reverting a blocked editor who was blocked after a discussion on ANI for 3RR on that very page. For your reference: Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents. -MBK004 01:54, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Just to let you know: the Yugoslav Wars page was not touched by me personally, I left my account running on another station and someone has "abused it", I swear my life that I did not blank those pages. How can I prove my innocence. Evlekis (talk) 20:34, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Articles for deletion nomination of Canon XL-2
I have nominated Canon XL-2, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Canon DV 012. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Ejfetters (talk) 01:12, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 22:04, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

current vandalism on Penis Envy
the vandalism you are dealing with on the article Penis Envy is coming from 4chan. You need to lock it until they become disinterested.

There is a request for page protection in now; hopefully that should help. Thanks --madkayaker (talk) 17:19, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Bot?
Are you just some sort of bot that is programmed to revert anonymous IP edits? If I don't get a reply (which is more than likely knowing you lot) then I know I'm right. Besides, I fail to see why you don't get that I can just change my IP as many times as I wish. Oh, and rangeblock won't work either, because my range is too big for you admins to be allowed to block. Any questions? 86.164.128.83 (talk) 00:09, 30 November 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.163.157.94 (talk)

No, I am not a bot. And your edits were not constructive. --madkayaker (talk) 00:22, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Newington
Hi. I have recently added factual information regarding Newington in Swale, Kent, UK. Why did you remove this? Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.142.166.237 (talk) 06:43, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Hello. I apologize for removing the information as quickly as I did; the reason I did so was that there were no citations for the information added. If you can provide citations for the facts added, they will be much less likely to be removed in the future. This isn't to discourage you from editing the page; I believe that you could add good, factual information; however original research without a source cannot be put into an article. Thanks, and feel free to ask me if you have any other questions. --madkayaker (talk) 07:34, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

EDIT CCFC pages
I have taken out the tongue in cheek ref from the below (no harm intended there just trying to highlight the silliness of superstition)

However, there IS much talk about RED being a lucky colour amongst cardiff fans and this referenced by Wales largest online media outlet(run by trinity mirror) so can the remaining bit below please be reinstated?

Much has been made of red being a lucky colour given Cardiff's record breaking run of 10 home games as red is percieved to be a bold, positive colour in the far east - a market Tan believes he can grow Cardiff City's fanbase. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.207.71.160 (talk) 23:47, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

I was right your wrong — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.7.183.72 (talk) 22:06, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

I noticed you leaving an external links warning on an IP's talk page, I am attempting to monitor recent edits for vandalism and inappropriate materiel, however, I'm quite new, where do I find formats for various warnings? --Interrexconsul (talk) 05:24, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the earlier help with warning formats, I noticed that you and several other editors use anti-vandalism tools such as HG, are these tools easy to use? And, if so, might you direct me to one as well as to a guide on how to use it? --Interrexconsul (talk) 18:47, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

If you find any problem with a feature that is supposed to work perfectly, please let us know. Some features are not ready yet, it is listed in known problems on Huggle3 beta page, you don't need to report these - we know it! So, that's it. Have fun testing and please let us know about any problems, either using bugzilla @ http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/ or. Please respond to my talk page, I am not going to watch your talk page.

Huggle 3 beta is out - and we need more feedback!
Hey madkayaker, how are you? I am Petrb, one of huggle developers, and you are currently subscribed as a beta tester of huggle on meta (Huggle/Members. You may not have noticed, but this week I released first beta precompiled installers for ubuntu and microsoft windows! Huggle/Huggle3_Beta has all the links you need. So if you can, please download it, test it and report all bugs that is really what we need now. Don't forgot that as it's just a beta it's unstable and there are some known issues. Be carefull! Thank you for helping us with huggle Petrb (talk) 16:22, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

We need your help testing latest huggle
Hello,

I am sending you this message because you listed yourself on Huggle/Members as a beta tester. We desperately need attention of testers, because since we resolved all release blockers, we are ready to release first official version of huggle 3! Before that happens, it would be nice if you could test it so that we can make sure there are no issues with it. You can download it packaged for your operating system (see Huggle/Huggle3_Beta) or you can of course build it yourself, see https://github.com/huggle/huggle3-qt-lx for that. Don't forget to use always latest version, there is no auto-update message for beta versions!

Should you find any issue, please report it to wikimedia bugzilla, that is a central place for huggle bugs, where we look at them. That is i mportant, if you find a bug and won't report it, we can't fix it. Thank you for your work on this, if you have any questions, please send me a message on my talk page, I won't be looking for responses here. Thanks, Petrb (talk) 15:14, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

New huggle 3.1 is going to be released soon
Hi madkayaker, we are to release a new major version of huggle, but we did receive almost no feedback from our beta testing team, which you are a part of (see https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Huggle/Members). It would be of a great help if you could download it (if you have windows, all you need to do is getting http://tools.wmflabs.org/huggle/files/huggle3.1.0beta.exe and putting it to a folder where you have installed huggle) and test it. You can always get a help with making it @ !

Major changes:
 * Multisite support - you can now log in to unlimited number of wikis in 1 huggle session and get a huge queue of all edits made to these wikis. This is good for smaller projects which gets overlooked often.
 * Ranged diffs - you can select multiple revisions and get a huge diff that display all changes done to them.
 * Fixes of most of bug reports we had so far

In case you found a bug, please report it to bugzilla: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?product=Huggle&list_id=147663 thank you! Petrb (talk) 10:11, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

Huggle message
Hey madkayaker! You are receiving this message because you are subscribed at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Huggle/Members#Beta_testers

I have recently launched a new downloads for beta testers that contains nightly builds of huggle, eg. versions that are built every day from our master branch and contains latest huggle. These builds are currently provided only for Windows and Ubuntu. You can find them here: http://huggle.wmflabs.org/builds/

Please keep in mind that these don't have any automatic updates and if you download and start using nightly build, you will need to update it yourself! So don't get yourself to running old version, it's possible to install both stable and nightly huggle, which is what I suggest.

Keep the bug reports coming to phabricator: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/create/?projects=Huggle Many thanks! Petrb (talk) 09:59, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

Penn Mutual update
Hi, I made an update to Wikipedia for Penn Mutual, but received a message that I left inappropriate content on Jeff Carter's wikipedia. I'm not sure who Jeff Carter is and I did not update his page. My content add was Penn Mutual's updated mission statement that helps digital users better understand Penn Mutual's goals.
