Don't go
Please. Wikipedia beats conneticut anyday. HawkerTyphoon 01:52, 25 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Have fun moving - twice in a couple months must really suck, but hopefully it's somewhere you can settle in. All the best - Guettarda 02:02, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Teke's RfA thanks
Thank you for your support of my RfA, which has passed with a final tally of 76/1/1. With this overwhelming show of support and approval I am honored to serve Wikipedia in the task charged to me and as outlined in my nomination. Happy editing to you! Teke ( talk ) 17:40, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Long-Overdue RfA Thanks from Alphachimp

 * I hope the move goes well!. alpha Chimp  laudare 01:11, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Pilot (House) Lead
You added a task to the Pilot (House) talk page saying that it was required that all FAs have at least three paragraphs for introduction sections to the article. This however untrue as the featured article criteria makes no mention of a requirement for three paragraphs. However, WP:LS does state that the length of the lead depends on the article's overall length. I'm not sure how to check how many "characters" are in the article. But I believe that the lead is at it's correct length. The Filmaker 04:48, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Martha Stewart
I am writing this message to ask you a simple question. Is or is not Martha Stewart a convicted criminal? I am aware that in this article it has been written that she has served jail time. It is to my understanding that one who serves jail time in the United States of America has to be convicted of a crime to do so. Solely on the topic of Martha's criminal history do I make these accusations. Understand that I am not being biased what so ever and that I do not wish to undermine Martha Stewart's credibility. Based strictly only upon the facts did I make this assumption. Thanks for your time.

 * You never answered the question my friend. I think that it is important to put the positive and negative facts about a person in their article. I think that many people would agree that in order to keep Wikipedia strong we need to stick with the facts. I have violated no policy by stating what is true. You on the other hand have replied to me with a disrespectful and sarcastic message. You have only hurt your own self-image along with those that you work with. I hope that the next message you send me will not contain any traces of immature or foolish antics.JebetheFaithful 04:53, 30 September 2006 (UTC)


 * If it is true and sincere, of course I will. I am glad that we are finally on a median. JebetheFaithful 05:11, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

My RfA

Orphaned fair use image (Image:UNavarra logo.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:UNavarra logo.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Nilfanion (talk) 16:01, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Re Caribbean stubs
To be honest, I'm not quite convinced. All six countries that make up the Greater Antilles already have their own stub types, and all but one of them (the Caymans) already have separate geo-stubs, too. The way things are working at the moment with the Stub-sorting, it's likely that just about every country will have its own separate stub type soon, even if the templates feed back into a larger category for now (for example Haiti-geo-stub still feeds into the Caribbean geography stubs category). So I'm not sure that splitting the antilles into greater and lesser would really be that useful. Grutness...wha?  23:30, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

User posting links to his own website
Thanks for the welcome. :)

I have discovered that a user calling himself Wacki has been posting links to his own website called logical science (dot) com. I note this is a clear violation of Wikipedia guidelines and have therefore removed the links and told Wacki on his talk page why they have been removed. There is clear proof that Wacki is the owner of this website in his Blogger profile. Just thought I would give the heads-up to what is going on in case he attempts to repost the links and an edit war ensues. Thanks --TheCenturion 18:31, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Edit counter
How do you get the edit counter on your page to work? I get to the tool and it says to save and then bypass my cache. Unfortuanetly, I have no idea what that means. Can you tell me a simple step-by-step way to do it? Am I supposed to copy and paste the text somewhere and go from there or do something else. Please message me when ever you have the time. Thanks. Nehrams2020 04:08, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Muchas gracias


Hey Dylan, thanks a lot for supporting me in my recent RfA. It succeeded, and I am very grateful to all of you. If you ever need help with anything, please don't hesitate to ask. Also, feel free point out any mistakes I make! Thanks again, &mdash; Khoikhoi 04:17, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

My RfA
Hey Slgrandson,

I just wanted to thank you for your support in my recent request for adminship, which passed unanimously with a final tally of 38/0/0. I appreciate your trust, and will do my best to uphold it. Don't hesitate to let me know if you ever need anything. — TKD::Talk 05:50, 21 October 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 15:44, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Inspector Gadget Article
Had a watch on the move page, noticed your entry. Not only did SlipKnotMask do the move, he immediately edited the redirect page with nonsense text so the move could not be undone. Seems like straightforward vandalism. You may want to put a vandalism notice on his talk page per Template:TestTemplates *Sparkhead  18:33, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Requests for adminship/Elonka
Thank you for participating in my recent RfA. Unfortunately consensus was not reached, and the nomination was not successful. However, I appreciate that you took the time to comment, and I did pay close attention to your thoughts, as I find it a valuable thing to understand how I am perceived by others in the Wikipedia community. Though the RfA was unsuccessful, I intend to continue contributing in a positive manner to Wikipedia, and if there is anything that I can do in the future to help further address your concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. --Elonka 09:54, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

To help you with your welcoming of new Esperanza members...
... TangoTango has kindly written up a script that once a week lists all of the new members to Esperanza. The list can be found at User:Tangotango/New members of Esperanza; it is updated once a week, and will show all of the new members since the last update. If you're not sure if everyone who joined the past week has been welcomed, that is a great place to check! I hope that helps you in your welcome, and thank you for making a point to greet new Esperanzians! -- Nataly a 18:41, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Universo HQ it's not a test!!!!
Please, why did you put the Universo HQ to be deleted? I was not finished when you did it. It's the best site to talk about brazilian comic books and has also a english version. Please, give one more look at the link and remove it or discuss with me. It's very unfair at this way....I'm here to be a wiki too...
 * I understand your cause—you're truly here to write articles for us—but, alas, the low Alexa ranking (per WP:WEB) caused me to send the page to WP:AFD. As always, feel free to discuss your views there or at the article's talk page. Good luck. --Slgr @ ndson (page - messages - contribs) 18:47, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Your comments against a vandal
I saw that you had posted your page in the Intervention page that Brainyshane640 was attacking you. I looked at the comments you made on his talk page, and I'd have to say that it doesn't look good the way you had made that threat. How can I accept you as an administrator in the future if you're going to up to people and make comments like that? I only speak out of concern here. :: Colin Keigher 18:44, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Re: Chess
Actually, I suck at chess, so you might want to challenge someone else. Sorry. :) --Core des at 19:17, 31 October 2006 (UTC)


 * How often do I have to make a step? :) NCurse work 11:17, 1 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Please, forgive me, but I can't play with you now, lot of works in Medicine project and I have to write an RfA nomination, so I'm really busy these days. Maybe later, I'll ask you to play. Anyway, thanks for the oppurtunity. NCurse work 18:14, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Your welcome message
was well received, however, I don't know if I deserve it. I listed my name under the people who want to join, but don't meet the req's. The page count thing says I only have 86. Are you sure I fit the bill?-- C hi  li  fix  04:01, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your edit to list of animated feature films
You've somehow noticed a recent film that I and everybody else had missed. :) Thanks. I noticed that your interests lie along this area. If you should ever come across another film which isn't on the list but should be (or on the other list that I maintain, list of stop-motion films), I would be grateful if you would add it in or inform me about it.  Thanks again. Esn 04:43, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Re: Grosvenor Grammar School
Posting on my page and all that about me vandalising is fine, but I have to inform you that I was away at the time and persons unknown within my household (*Sigh*) ie: my brither, logged in under my user and changed things on our school info page. This has happened before. I apologise and it will not happen again.

db-copyvio on Costa rica outward bound
Thanks for your diligence warning users for speedy delete articles, but I'm the one that put the db-copyvio on that page. I removed the warning from my talk page. ju66l3r 22:27, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Dalbury's RfA
My RfA passed with a tally of 71/1/0. Thank you very much for your support. I hope that my performance as an admin will not disappoint you. Please let me know if you see me doing anything inappropriate. -- Donald Albury 03:54, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Butler Area School District
School districts, like towns and cities, are automatically considered notable. I have therefore removed the prod from Butler Area School District and added categories and references to the article. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 20:40, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza

 * Hello Slgrandson. Thank you for welcoming me to Esperanza. I think I'll enjoy participating in this program very much; I wonder why I didn't join earlier though. Oh well, thank you again, and see you around! | A ndonic O  Talk 00:29, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Anthony.bradbury's RfA
I noticed you said something about RFA risks - what do you mean there? ST47 Talk 00:12, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Vinylic selenides
Not the greatest of articles, but certainly not a speedy deletion candidate. This wasn't called for.

RfA thanks
Thank you for voting in my RfA, I passed. I appreciate your input. Please keep an eye on me(if you want) to see if a screw up. HighInBC (Need help? Ask me) 16:45, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
