Is that a Cactus in your pocket or are you just happy to not see me?
Whenever you can update that friggin' NYC 2600 website of yours then I can be happy. :)

I also am currently trying to set up a project, I am slightly set back due to router failure but I will be back on track in a day or two. I will show it off next meeting.

P.S. Boo.

NYC2600
I couldn't help but notice that you generously linked to Wikimedia New York City on the NYC2600 website. Do you think it might make sense for Wikimedia New York City to do a meetup in conjunction with NYC2600 sometime? How large are the usual meetings you have — and is to the group open to the relatively non-technical people (such as myself) who form a large proportion of Wikipedians/Wikimedians? Also, how aware are you of other NYC-area groups that Wikimedia New York City might be able to collaborate with — I know just a little about Columbia Free Culture, but that's it. Thanks for your help.--Pharos 19:33, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Regarding an early post of yours asking if anyone was in contact with or could contact Star Trek Phase 2 producers
Hi Rob T.

Regarding an earlier post asking if anyone was in contact with Star Trek New Voyages: Phase 2 producers, well, now you are. :-)

I am pretty new to using Wikipedia for anything other than searches, but am always available to chime in on the talk section of the STP2 articles, or via our website's contact link. Thanks for your efforts in keeping the page about us non-defaced and accurate!

Re: We Are the World
Thanks for choosing to record the article. I believe 'Kragen' is pronounced 'Kray - Gin', with the 'G' being pronounced the same way it is on 'Git', as opposed to 'Ginger'. It's a hard 'G', not a soft 'G'. His surname is spoken at 4:39 here if you are still unsure. Thanks again for choosing the article! :)  Pyrrhus 16 ''' 13:30, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Greetings
Hello, Mr. Firefly. Any relation to Rufus? But, please! I tell you my name is Abie. Abie the fish man. I am not this Roscoe Chandler you speak of. I'm a simple fish peddler from Czechoslovakia. And I have the birth mark to prove it!--Abie the Fish Peddler (talk) 22:16, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:46, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

It would be interesting what you would say to the merge and the delete discussion. And possibly it could help to contact other people that they should help also. )-: Merry Xmas --Soenke Rahn (talk) 07:18, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

A spoken version of introduction of article (Steinway & Sons)
Hi Rob T Firefly,

I have for a long time been thinking of how to get a spoken version of the introduction of the article Steinway & Sons. The article is about the famous and very prestigious piano brand Steinway & Sons. The article is long and got music files, a video file and many pictures. In the music world there are many blind people and I think they should have the opportunity to hear the introduction of this article about the world's most famous piano company. My native language is not English so therefore I have been looking for someone to help me. I have heard you speaking File:George Washington's Farewell Address.ogg and I must say that I think your way of speaking very, very good.

I would like to ask you if you please would help my by making a file with a spoken version of the introduction of the article Steinway & Sons?

Yours sincerely, ANCJensen (talk) 03:40, 13 July 2011 (UTC).

 * Dear Rob, I too hope, that you will create an audio file containing a spoken version of the introduction of the Steinway & Sons article. It would be amazing. --Peoplefromarizona (talk) 15:45, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

Your invitation to participate in a Wikimedia-approved survey in online behavior.
Hello, my name is Michael Tsikerdekis, currently involved as a student in full time academic research at Masaryk University. I am writing to you to kindly invite you to participate in an online survey about interface and online collaboration on Wikipedia. The survey has been reviewed and approved by the Wikimedia Foundation Research Committee.

I am contacting you because you were randomly selected from a list of active editors. The survey should take about 7 to 10 minutes to complete, and it is very straightforward.

'''Wikipedia is an open project by nature. Let’s create new knowledge for everyone!''' :-)

To take part in the survey please follow the link: tsikerdekis.wuwcorp.com/pr/survey/?user=30563777 (HTTPS).

Best Regards, --Michael Tsikerdekis (talk) 11:41, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

PS: The results from the research will become available online for everyone and will be published in an open access journal. As a thank you for your efforts and participation in Wikipedia Research you will receive a Research Participation Barnstar after the end of the study.

Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. — Mr. V (t – c)   01:25, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
