Proposed amendment
Hi Radek - I have proposed two more amendments to the East European mailing list case here; my apologies that I was so slow on this. Steve Smith (talk) 23:29, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

problem with your dyk hook
Hi, see here for a problem with your dyk hook. You need to add a source directly after the quote in the article. Otherwise, all is fine. Thanks, — mattisse  (Talk) 17:41, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Battle of Ciudad Juárez
I put a check on the DYK nomination but the last paragraph is lacking citations. Care to fix that real quick? Thanks Nice job in the article BTW Thelmadatter (talk) 01:49, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I kinda figured it was an oversight,which is why I went ahead and put the green check on it. Dont get discouraged about the amount of work that needs to be done... at least we will always have a hobby!!!! Man, its a job just to work on all the towns/cities that have municipality status (there are about 2500) never mind communities within municipalities! Anyway, I enjoy reading your articles about the Mexican Revolution. I need to understand this country's history better. Pop me a note when you complete one, I dont always see them on DYK or WP:MEXICOThelmadatter (talk) 14:36, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Now they're out to get Lesser of Two
Hey, thank you for helping out with the Embers (band) AfD. Well now the AfD has spilled over to Articles for deletion/Lesser of Two. Now, I could see a credible argument for AfD discussion of Embers, but Lesser of Two is a band with many more references and accomplishments. Please help. Thanks. noodle 03:28, 12 February 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Noodlesteve (talk • contribs)

Serafin Olarte
I linked him from Papantla and I'm going to try and write a decent article on this guy. If you know of any biographical sources that would be of great help. Nice article!radek (talk) 04:52, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I note that you have commented on the first phase of Requests for comment/Biographies of living people

As this RFC closes, there are two proposals being considered:
 * 1) Proposal to Close This RfC
 * 2) Alternate proposal to close this RFC: we don't need a whole new layer of bureaucracy

Your opinion on this is welcome. Okip  03:25, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

Mexican Revolution
I changed the template on the Mexican Revolution article because the one you had didn't exist (i.e., red link). I don't know if it was misspelled or deleted, but it wasn't there; that's why I said it was "dead". If you're trying to replace the other one with a more standard military-campaign template, I don't have any argument with that. However, I can't speak for others; I suspect they may deem it more political than military in nature. --RBBrittain (talk) 00:45, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, I understand. As I said before, if you've got a better template to go there I have no objection.  --RBBrittain (talk) 00:50, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
