Thank you
Mmmm, donut. I guess I'm predictable, huh? — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 21:04, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Nothing wrong with being predictable, so long as the work you do is high quality.. (After all, if people see articles about Balzac, most of them will assume I wrote 'em.) Cheers. Scartol  •  Tok  13:41, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

Dear Scar, who would've thought it, almost four years ago this spring, relatively new to this project and with absolutely no idea what I was getting myself into, I was looking around for folks to help me improve I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, and I happened upon your talk page with a quote from the great Dr. Angelou. Then I asked for your assistance, which you freely and generously gave, plus lots more in mentorship and support. And here we are, coming to kind of a full circle. I know you're busy, but I ask for your assistance again. I've finally gotten her article comprehensive enough, I believe, and it needs some copyediting before I submit it to FAC. I know it's a long, complicated thing, but I think it's a wonder to behold, especially when you consider where it was when we started. I even made a list of what I think potential copyeditors should consider, on the article's talk page:. Thanks, and I appreciate your contributions here and everywhere else you frequent.

 * Christine, it's been truly excellent working with you as well, and I do so look forward to seeing the article on Ms. Angelou achieve the coveted FA status. Alas, my schedule these days is so very full that I simply must say no to some things, even those things I would love to take on.


 * I wish you the best of luck, and please let me know when you reach your goal — as I have no doubt you shall. Good luck! Scartol  •  Tok  17:56, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
 * You know it! And sweetie, I could never be mad at you!  I understand about busyness; I don't have nearly the time to devote to WP as I used to (although I have a few hours opening up).  I was able to complete the MA article only because Spring Break was last week.  No worries, though, someone gave me a referral to someone who may be able to assist.

 * I see that Ryan has not checked in yet. I hope that you will wait a few more days before you look for someone else because I've seen his work and he is really good.  I see several places that perhaps could be written differently, but I am no expert and still hope that Ryan will have a go at it.  Gandydancer (talk) 23:35, 21 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, I see that too. I'm in no hurry, especially this week.  I'll say more on your talk page, so as to not muck-up Scartol's talk page. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 20:01, 22 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Please feel free to muck this space up however you like. No one else (myself included) is using it much these days. 8) Good luck! Scartol  •  Tok  11:11, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
