You've now met the "Regulus Marzo" sockpuppet
Just for your information: your recent rv on the article List of members of the ASEAN was on a particularly annoying user who has been blocked many times...under many names. Go here to view some of his previous handles. As you can see they are all very similar naming patterns. Admin Kusma is very aware of this particular sock and has assisted me before in dealing with him. Former sysop, NSLE is also familiar with this user and, like Kusma, was very helpfull in taking care of him prior to his losing his admin status. I thought I would give you a heads-up on this just in case you come across any Regulus socks in the future. Cheers and take care! !!!! Anger22 13:39, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

WinBot
Hi. I just visited your User:WinBot page to see who the bot operator was. When I was there I noticed that the emergency shut off button appears to overlap the statement "This user account is a bot operated by Winhunter." so that when you click on your user name it tries to shut down the bot. Luckily I don't have administrator permissions, so it doesn't seem to have caused any damage this time. You may wish to change the page layout though in case an administrator shuts your bot down by accident. Road Wizard 13:26, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

H5N1 vandalism
Would you object to my replacing your comments on User talk:163.1.215.56 with a somewhat gentler test1 message? WP:DBTN and all that... Waitak 13:33, 13 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for a quick and gracious response. Done (w subst) as recommended. Waitak 13:43, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

RfA thank you

My RfA
Hi, I would like to express my gratitude for your participation at my recent RfA. The final vote was 68/21/3 and resulted in me becoming an admin!

For those of you who supported my RfA, I highly appreciate your kind words and your trust in me. For those who opposed - many of you expressed valid concerns regarding my activity here; I will make an effort in addressing them as time goes on while at the same time using my admin tools appropriately. So, salamat, gracias, merci, ありがとう, спасибо, धन्यवाद, 多謝, agyamanak unay, شكرًا, cảm ơn, 감사합니다, mahalo, ขอบคุณครับ, go raibh maith agat, dziękuję, ευχαριστώ, Danke, תודה, mulţumesc, გმადლობთ, etc.! If you need any help, feel free to contact me. PS: I took the company car (pictured left) out for a spin, and well... it's not quite how I pictured it. --Chris S. 23:53, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Don't worry
I just restructured the talk page, didn't remove anything. Was a mess. Sijo Ripa 09:23, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

My RfA
Hi Winhunter, I just wanted to say thanks for choosing not to give me an oppose. As i'm sure you can appreciate i wasn't too happy with 8 Opposes (inc. 2 strongs) within an hour of nomination just wanted to let you known it meant a lot Thanks :) --Deon555|talk 06:37, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Sorry! I do apologize for my mistake. Wrong tab, won't happen again. laddiebuck 07:14, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Moses 2
I've removed your tagging of User:Moses 2 (talk • contribs) as a General Tojo socket puppet. Moses 2's contributions do not fit GT's modus operandi in my honest opinion. See Requests_for_arbitration for known examples. --  Netsnipe  (Talk)  16:00, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for reverting the blanking of my page by a vandal :D  Martinp23   14:01, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Self block
Yes, I assure you, an error! I was trying to shorten a proper block. Thanks for observing. Tyrenius 14:17, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Cranbury School
Does a "Blue Ribbon" award count as notability for a school? Cranbury School got one from the U.S. Government. WhisperToMe 16:09, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Also, keep in mind Cranbury School is, in and of itself, a school district (a local government much like a city or a county, etc.) - It's not unreasonable to ask to merge school articles into the parent district (e.g. a non-notable Los Angeles school into Los Angeles USD's page) - But Cranbury School IS the district - there's nowhere to merge the page!

Soviet Union Anthem
Sorry I hadn't noticed the rest of the article was deleted in my edit. I think there was a conflict with a vandalizer before my edit so that's why it happened. Sorry once more. --85.240.233.84 12:49, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
You're quick! Thanks for reverting the vandalism on my talk page. Even though I was at my computer editing at the time, you got it before I even knew it was there. :) --Ed (Edgar181) 13:23, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm confused as to why you labeled that edit as vandalism - the station website bears out the slogan change. Lambertman 18:19, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Mission Critical
I moved 'Mission Critical' the description of a game to 'Mission Critical(game)'. meatclerk 04:41, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

please do not "unicodify" (convert from html entities to literal unicode) stuff in the ASCII range
if stuff in the ascii range is in the form of entities then its probabablly that way for a good reason, please leave it alone (example of breakage caused by such a conversion

Admin elections
I don't understand, how is it that Wikipedia determines you do not become an admin even with more support that opposition? --HResearcher 09:48, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
