In Need
Phaedriel, I am in need of a new userpage design. Thanks, --Alexanderbirkel (talk) 17:59, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

WTF!? I came here to ask why User:Rama's Arrow left wikipedia (He mentioned you) and see that you're inactive too! What is this world coming to!? Gosh, my friends list is getting much smaller... Hope you come back; you're a credit to the community. Does anyone else know why Rama's Arrow left? *Sigh* *Cry*... Spawn Man Review Me! 04:40, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank you
I plagiarized your thank you card design. It's nowhere near as classy as yours but hopefully fun: User:A. B./RfA thanks (haikus)

I hope you will return to Wikipedia -- "civility" is a buzzword around here but you raised the bar to WP:COURTESY and WP:GRACIOUS. -- A. B. (talk) 13:14, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Happy 2008!
Happy New Years!!!!!

I wish you and your friends and family a very happy new year. As we enter 2008, I also hand you anything you would like. Even if it's alcohol, which I'm not allowed to handle.

I've completed my first full year of holding this account (not editing, mind you; that's due to my three months of inactivity).

I've made many friends here in my first year, and you, since I am giving you this message, are one of them. I've gotten a much better view on Wikipedia, about everyone being able to edit, vandalism, etc.

Once again, I truly pray that you, your friends, and your family have an excellentè New Year! (Yes, my bad Español is starting to leak through my Englsh.)

Thanks for helping me around Wikipedia as a new editor, and have a great 2008!

Your friend, Jonathan talk \ contribs 00:29, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Little help here?
I noticed you're a real good user page designer, which is good because my userpage looks like random wikicode thrown together carelessly as an attempt to produce a userpage. Which, on retrospect, it probably was. So when you're ready, hit me up at my own talk page and we can get started. (That's the "discuss my greatness" link in my sig...I'm too egocentric for my own good. But not really. Wait...what?)  Two One Six Five Five  discuss my greatness 20:52, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

I need your help
Hello again! I need to see if we can get your help on an issue. We are trying to get the article about the Grammy awards in shape and myself and another editor are trying to decide if we should keep or get rid of the "records" section of the article. It is true that the section does not have a lot of focus. As you can see here the other editor is in favor of deleting it from the page. I myself feel that the section needs to remain. I feel that if people want to look up the information, they can go to the Grammy website and look up the information and confirm it with what we have included. Hypo feels that it seems more like original research. I feel that we both have merit, but we feel it would be best for us to have a third opinion. Can you ring in on this? I have always appreciated the way you look at thiese issues with fairness. Junebug52 03:39, 4 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, Phaedriel is on WikiBreak right now, so it's very likely she won't be able to help you... if you want, other administrators can look at it for you :) SirFozzie (talk) 03:40, 4 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you friend for your attention to this. I have submitted it to other admins as well. I wanted to get a few different views. Thank you again. Since you are an admin, maybe you could help us by taking a look and giving us your opinion? Junebug52 03:44, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Question
Periodically I revisit your user page because I usually come across something that I find interesting. This visit I noticed: "I moved to the most wonderful city in the United States, where I currently live and work." I have to admit I'm not particularly enthusiastic about US cities; I visit the US to catch up with friends and see the natural wonders, and where possible avoid the cities as much as possible. I'm interested to know which city you consider to be the most wonderful. (If you don't want to state it publicly, I believe my "E-mail this user" is in working order.) Meanwhile, Happy New Year!

Is she okay?
Does anyone know if she's okay? I'm a friend (that would prefer to stay anonymous), and I haven't heard from her for months and I'm very worried about her. I'm not trying to be nosy, and I don't need to know what she's up to; just a simple, "Yes, she's okay" or "No one knows" would suffice. 82.27.23.34 (talk) 16:15, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
 * No-one knows. I haven't heard from her in quite some time either. Will (talk) 16:40, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Hiya !
Hey Phaedriel, I know you are not around here right now, but I just want to thank you for the wonderful lay-out of your user page, which I gladly used for myself as well now :) I'm pretty new here and I don't know anything about all these codes you used, but I figured out how to edit it and work with it and I think my biography page looks pretty cool now. This is all thanks to you, so if you are ever coming back and you read this, feel free to check it out at User:AmandaPirato/Biography, thank you :) <font color="C154C1">Amanda <font color="Orange">T /<font color="Orange"> C 06:30, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Ashampoo
Wikipedia told me that you have deleted Ashampoo article on May 27, 2007. Why? Hallgrímskirkja (talk) 18:08, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Copyright violation. Page was basically a copy of http://www.download.com/Ashampoo/3260-20_4-61683.html . Also take a look at Notability (organizations and companies) - we will need several non-trivial unrelated sources writing about the company (newspapers, books, etc., not phonebook listings or company press releases) to keep an article on it. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 18:46, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Question about name preference
On your main page, you say "yes, I do have a Comanche name. But please, even if you're curious, I'd prefer not to be requested to say it. Some things, especially very intimate ones, are better left unsaid." Ok, I can respect that -- but I do have a question for you about it, if you do not mind my asking. (I will ask forgiveness in advance if I am overstepping any boundaries just by asking my meta question -- it is not my intent to challenge or insult your position, only to understand better.) My question is: is it common for Comanche (or all American-Indian) to treat their Indian name as intimate knowledge, or is this just your personal preference? That is, if I were to meet a different Comanche person, would it be forward of me to ask their Comanche name? If so, would that further extend to Cherokee, Hopi, etc., or is this mostly limited to Comanche mores?

Thank you very much. Oliepedia (talk) 18:17, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

The Prophet (Gibran)
Phaedriel, your contribution The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran at Wikisource was recently found to be copyrighted in the U.S. through the Stanford Copyright Renewal Database. It is in the public domain in Lebanon and the U.K. however. What I expect will happen is that your contribution will be moved to the Wikilivres website, whose server is also probably in a country where The Prophet is in the public domain. The proposed removal is being discussed at s:WS:COPYVIO. Discussions there can moved fairly quickly, so if the preceding link fails, you would need to check the archives for the discussion.

I regret your contribution isn't likely to remain at Wikisource. I've encountered your contributions there and have visited your user page there and here before, so allow me take the liberty of adding that since I had noticed (I'm not sure where) you had expressed an interest in the poet Lascelles Abercrombie while I was recently adding a text by him, An Essay Towards a Theory of Art, I wanted to suggest that you might enjoy that essay. 216.165.199.50 (talk) 06:40, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Nice Design!
Hello, I just wanted to say that I like your userpage and I like the layout of it. --Grrrlriot (talk) 01:59, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Poems by Katherine Mansfield
Dear Phaedriel,

This is the same user who notified you about the copyright status of The Prophet on Wikisource. I regret to tell you that your contibution Poems by Katherine Mansfield is also copyrighted in the United States and will probably have to be sent to Wikilivres as well. If you wish to intervene in any way, the discussion forum for the work is at s:WS:COPYVIO. The discussion is likely to be decided on and archived within two weeks. Again, sorry for the inconvenience a second time around. ResScholar 21:01, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

From your userpage: "But as long as I'm a member of Wikipedia, I will believe in Wikilove; and as long as my heart beats, I will continue to believe in Love. Now that, I do take seriously. And no member of our community, no matter how respected he is, will ever dissuade me... because I want to believe that Wikipedia can be a place for happy people."
