On the BOHS article
Why did you remove the "Prominent Alumni" section? From what I read on your userpage, you never have even come in close proximity to Southern California, so what business do you have editing BOHS's page?

Popups
When using popups to revert, please make sure that you fully revert vandalism. Sometimes a vandal makes several consecutive edits, so it's important to revert all of these edits, not just one (see ). -- Curps 18:30, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 03:00, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Esperanza!
Welcome, Shizane, to Esperanza, the Wikipedia member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles.

I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Celestianpower, and guided by the Advisory Committee comprised of JoanneB, FireFox and Titoxd. The next set of elections will be in April, we will keep you updated about the results. Because you are a new member, you are not able to vote in these elections, but you will be more than welcome to take part in the elections in June.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Celestianpower by email or talk page or the Esperanza talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an IRC Tutorial. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!

VandalProof
Well it could be a bug, but first check to make sure you are logging in using the following steps:


 * 1) Open VandalProof
 * 2) Wait for page to load
 * 3) Set your username using File -> Set username
 * 4) Click the logging into Wikipedia link under option 2 on the "Your log-in request failed" message
 * 5) Log in with your Wikipedia username and password

Let me know if this isn't the problem. As for why I didn't leave a message, There is a bug in the auto-welcome function, so I need to leave a message manually. Since there were a lot of people requesting use, I just skipped it ;-) Prodego  talk  18:17, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Thank you

Baklava vandal
I've blocked your vandal for a 24 hour period. Thanks for the alert. -- Longhair 04:51, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Re: Thanks!
Any time. As far as I can tell you did nothing to him other than warn him, so why did he vandalize your page? You've got to wonder sometimes what these people are thinking. -- RattleMan 07:49, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to be a bitch
I decided to delete some of my infromation on my user page due to privacy concerns. I don't think that gives you the right to revert it!!! --Julien Deveraux 04:53, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

My apologies for being so terse in my online communication ...do you happen to know why wiki deleted some images i uploaded eons ago for articles I had written? i'm really upset that they did that b/c i can't get those back

Wikibreak
I hope you have a nice wikibreak, and that real life manages to not be too stressful! -- Nataly a 10:42, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
for watching my back :) --Geneb1955 Talk/ CVU 02:48, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

My RfA
, thank you for participating in my RfA. Unfortunately, a great number of oppose voters felt that I lacked experience, and a consensus was not reached (the final tally was 30/28/10). Perhaps I will try again in another few months when I have a few more edits under my belt. If I do, I hope I can count on your support. Thanks again!

My RfA
I know that you opposed my RfA but it passed anyway, and I hope I can show you that your fear was unwarranted.-- Kim van der Linde at venus 07:18, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

My Thanks
I wanted to drop a brief note on your talk page (one admittedly not written to you only, but nevertheless truly meant) to thank you for your vote in my Request for Adminship, which concluded this evening. Even though it was unsuccessful, it did make clear to me some areas in which I can improve my contributions to Wikipedia, both in terms of the areas in which I can participate and the manner in which I can participate. I do plan on, at some point in the future (although, I think, not the near future), attempting the process again, and I hope you will consider participating in that voting process as well. If you wish in the future to offer any constructive criticism to me, or if I may assist you with anything, I hope you will not hesitate to contact me. Thanks again. &mdash; WCityMike (T  &dArr; plz reply HERE (why?) &dArr;  04:24, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

My RFA
, thank you for participating in my RfA. It passed with an amazingly unopposed 77/0/1. Thanks for the support everybody! If you see me doing anything wrong, want to ask me something, or just want to yell in my general direction, leave me a note on my talk page. I promise to try and knock out Wikipedia's problems wherever I may find them!

Hey there
Thanks for commenting on my RfA...it was greatly appreciated! --Osbus 21:46, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

"Vandalism"
...

Do you even read summaries? Wikistress +10 for me! I removed it because - I AM DAMNED REPEATING THIS THE FOURTH TIME - it's like saying on the banana article that "some people add bananas to their cakes and bring them to weddings. Bananas are said to be delicious!" or on the Sun article that "many people tend to lay on beaches and tan themselves on the sun." ARGH. Caaptaain Caav.. OBVIOUS! Jesus Christ, Wikipedia needs less conservatism.. how stupid it is to mention that there "is clan-gaming among Counter-Strike players" like there isn't in any other online-game out there in that manner? Do articles like firearm have to exclusively mention how a projectile kills, and explain that how greatly a gun can be used in warfare, when it's just not obvious enough for the reader to look up on that information seperately? On the banana thing, you do know why it is too obvious to be included regarding cakes and sweets? Because it is mentioned that it is edible food, so is it mentioend that Counter-Strike: Source is an online videogame. --84.249.252.211 01:29, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Articles_for_deletion/Silicon_Optix
I added some justification for passing WP:CORP on this article. I'd appreciate it if you would be willing to take a another look at the article. Thanks, ---J.S (t|c) 17:34, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
