In the interest of full disclosure...
Today, on the Rihanna discography featured list discussion, I was snarky with someone (you) on Wikipedia for the first time today because you told me not to be snarky for (truly) randomly using the word "idiot" in a post to describe a type of user but not anyone specific. I am sorry for throwing you shade online. I guess I was just really surprised since it was so innocuous in my eyes. I am very invested in articles related to the Caribbean. I will be extra extra extra careful to word things impeccably in future discussions. I understand that you are an administrator with amazing mighty administrator power. Please do not kick me off of Wikipedia for tossing the word "idiot" into a sentence relating to no specific user...please don't...I beg of you, dude. I absolutely assure you that I have no intention of harming or harassing anyone who wants to vandalize the Rihanna discography at their will. I will simply revert the vandalism and keep my opinions to myself. I promise. (mikomango (talk) 08:01, 1 December 2010 (UTC))

WikiProject East Asia Scope & Ratings
Hello. This message is to inform you that I have called for a reexamination of the scope document and the ratings system used by the project. The ratings system especially has run into problems and could benefit from a simplification and generalizations. The scope, too, could be reexamined to the same end. Please come to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject East Asia and discuss the matters so that we can reach a community consensus. I'd like to have it done before Christmas, so I can spend the break making any necessary changes. The importance discussion is at the top of the page. The scope discussion is at the bottom, but we can move them together if we need to.

Thank you,  S ven M anguard   Wha?  07:13, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

I need help adding an article about my father, the late actor Robert Dunham.
Hi Matthew,

I need help adding an article that had existed on wikipedia about my father, till yesterday. I had tried to add information and correct it, as well. Someone had posted misinformation about him, many years ago. I haven't had time to make corrections, till now. I run a fan site for him on Facebook and I did not realize that he had so many fans. My father was an American actor working in Japan, during the "Golde Age" of Cinema. He starred in many movies (about 15-20) but his most famous was Godzilla vs. Megalon, Mothra, The Green Slime, and Dogora, as well as other non sci-fi films. I'd like to email you the draft of the article, which I wrote myself. I have had to check and re-check facts because there was a lot of misinformation about my father's acting career. In addition, he wasn't only an actor ~ he was also a stunt man, a race car driver with Peter Brock of Brock Racing Enterprises, (which isn't even mentioned on Peter Brock's wiki site). I have a magazine article from "Grassroots Motor Sports" from 2005 about my father's race car driving career with Pete Brock. Plus, he was a family friend. All the other personal information is from me, since I am his daughter and would know more about my dad's career, than anyone else. Do you think you could help me with this article? I am not familar with all the ins and outs of putting in an article, such as adding italics for this and semi-colons for that.

In addition, when the wiki article was here before, I tried adding a pic and it would always give me an erroe message saying it was a fake jpg or something. Some of the pics I tried to download were pics that I own, myself.

If you could help me put this together, I would sincerely appreciate it. I have no clue what I am doing on here. I've tried to follow along with everything but it's too confusing. I'm not that computer saavy. Thank you. I will email you my copy.

Sincerely,
