User talk:Rrobot

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope that I don't seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy for the following reason: as it contains the word robot. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?

I'd appreciate learning your views, for instance, your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.

There are several options available to you:
 * We can talk about it, here.
 * You can abandon the contributions made under this name and create a new account that meets our username policy and addresses the concern(s) noted above.
 * Or, if you want to keep your contributions history under a new name, then you should visit Changing username and follow the instructions there.

If we can't resolve this on our own, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process. 217.39.11.37 (talk) 16:54, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Sorry -- I have no idea how to answer you other than to edit this page. I am a totally harmless person who chose rrobot as a name because my boss has a "Forbidden Planet" Robbie Robot doll in his office, and created the e-mail address "rrobot" at our not-for-profit company for sending around humorous messages. I am a living, breathing, person, not a robot; in the spirit of my boss's Robbie doll, I sometimes use that moniker when I want to be anonymous on the Internet. I'd prefer not to change it if I don't have to, but if it's really bothering the Wikipedia Powers That Be, I will. I have contributed to very few articles, mostly on musical topics, since that's my specialty.

Ah, thanks for catching my mistake in the Erich Kunzel article. My copy-pasting skills aren't what they once were. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 03:20, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Henry Heimlich, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Wilmington (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 14:18, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Try researching more, maybe starting from |0/Whoopi-Goldberg/. Materialscientist (talk) 14:26, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * If you can't find a NYT articles it implies they've made a mistake, withdrew the article and removed archives to reduce the confusion. I can't think of any serious (enough for NYT) conspiracy theory on this issue. I'm lacking time and proper sources to be more certain. Materialscientist (talk) 22:37, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
