Your revert of my edit to Mantan Moreland
Hello, ... you reverted my edit to  as "vandalism" ... did you even bother to look at the two versions of the article, or did you just look at the change comparison? If you think that a bunch of titles and dates all smushed together in a single paragraph is "better" than a bulleted list, well, that's your opinion, with which I happen to disagree (especially since there are no articles to which any of the titles could be linked), but I really don't care enough about this article to get into a revert-war with you ... Happy Editing! &mdash; 22:30, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

- Hello, again ... just a ping to note that my IP address has changed again ... since you don't have email enabled, I guess I'll have to point you here to find pix of your humble friend and narrator on my websites, or here for my Tale of Woe and Grief ... and you'll see why I no longer edit Wikipedia with that account (except for userboxes on my User page, because it still comes up on the first page of Google search results for my name. :-) Happy Editing! &mdash; 04:07, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Tortoise FPC
Hi Thanks for your vote on my FPC of the leopard tortoise. You mentioned something about adjusting curves and stuff to reduce the harsh flash effects. Seeing that you are a graphics designer, could you please help me out with some editing?

Wikipedia Ambassador Program in Houston
Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you're listed as a Wikipedian from Houston. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors from the Houston area, to help with Wikipedia assignments at Texas Southern University. Classes at TSU will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester, and the role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).

If you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone in Houston who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page. Thanks!--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 20:03, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
