Coldwater
Thanks for your note. The disambiguation page is about the term "Coldwater", not "Cold Water". It seems trivial, but the sole purpose of a disambiguation page is to guide people to the correct page when an article has an incorrect link. My thinking is that song or book titles (if I remember correctly what I deleted) that are "Cold Water" will not be mis-linked as Coldwater and should not therefore be competing for attention on the dab page with more likely hits. If you have found articles that link to Coldwater but are meant to be "Cold Water [something]", then certainly you could restore those links.--Ken Gallager (talk) 12:40, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Looking into it further, I see that Cold Water redirects to Coldwater. I will restore the items I deleted and make it clearer that both terms are covered.  Thanks again for getting in touch. --Ken Gallager (talk) 12:48, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Your rollback request
I reviewed your rollback request. Although you don't have many edits or reverts, the ones I reviewed seemed okay, and you seem to recognize vandalism correctly. As such, I've granted your account rollback. Just remember that rolblack should be used to revert vandalism, and that misuse of the tool, either by using it to revert edits you disagree with or to revert-war with other users, can lead to it being removed...sometimes without warning. For practice you may wish to see New admin school/Rollback.

Thank you also for the good wishes. :) Yes, my day so far has been a pleasant one. I hope your day is equally as nice. Acalamari 22:24, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Klashnekoff.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Klashnekoff.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 11:10, 28 September 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 11:10, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Conflict of interest template change
Hello ReformatMe, I honestly am not sure what you were trying to do at the COI guideline, but the reason for the template at the top is because WP:CONFLICT redirects to the COI guideline and someone trying to get to WP:EC or WP:DR might end up at COI by mistake. I don't know why you were changing the template informing people of the redirect, but I wanted to explain why it's there. Thanks! --  At am a  頭 21:54, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
 * No worries, by the time I left this message you had fixed it back so my message wasn't even necessary. For another editor (one with a bad edit history or a newbie) I might have left a template warning about experimenting but you're an established editor with a good record and I assumed you had a good reason for what you did. Thanks for getting back to me! --  At am a  頭 22:00, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Worcestershierre, Warwickshierre, and Everyshierre
Hello ! A non-British user seems to be attempting to  suggest that the Brits are not  pronouncing  their own British  place names  correctly,  and appears to  believe that  it  is a policy of Wikipedia to  instruct  the Brits, through  the use of the IPA, how British English  should be pronounced. He/she also seems to be of the  opinion that it is Wikipedia policy to regard British English by default as a rhotic  language, which it is not. Some British Wikipedians are trying to avoid an edit conflict and have requested my support. I have added my comments to the debate the non-British user has  has started in  defence of his/her multiple, WP:BOLD? changes to IPA pronunciations of British place names. As a professional linguist I accord every version  of English  its own particular merits and  my  position here strictly concerns the way in  which  the IPA is interpreted and applied in the Wikipedia, and how the current policy may need to be changed through a truly representative consensus. If you would like to  help  resolve this issue,  please see User talk:Kudpung and User talk:Lfh to  get  the background. Maybe you could then chime in with your views on the subject at Wikipedia talk:IPA for English. Thanks. --Kudpung (talk) 18:56, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

Adopt-a-typo
Dear Reformat, I am a member of the typo team, and have only been actively editing for a few months. However, when I joined the typo team there seemed to be a need for a collection of adopted typos. Therefore, I have started the adopt-a-typo project. However, I could still use some help getting it off the ground, and any ideas or corrections are welcome.

File source problem with File:Nannibalestrini.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Nannibalestrini.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
