Hi Tom, just wanted to acknowledge the great work you've been doing within MilHist lately. I know I pestered you into doing a little reviewing to help with the backlog, but half a dozen thorough reviews in two days is more than I had a right to ask. And of course you've written some brilliant articles of your own. Keep up the good work—I promise you it's appreciated. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:09, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
Hey, thanks. And seriously no worries. I realised how annoying it was not to get reviews on my articles, so it seems only fair!! I'm cautious about reviewing because I can be very opinionated :P but so long as there are no complaints then all good. --Errant (chat!) 22:15, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
Opinionated is good when reviewing—there's no reason we can't ask questions and make suggestions, and most nominators are usually so happy you took the time to read their article that they're only too happy to listen to your suggestions, even if they're mad (the suggestions, that is, not the nominators! ;) ). HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:47, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
Heh, I think you have to be a bit mad to work here... --Errant (chat!) 22:52, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Double hyphen in signature

It's a small thing but it annoys me. Your bot signs its posts with a double hyphen (--). It should be using a dash (– or —). See Dash. Kendall-K1 (talk) 15:43, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

Talk about petty issues...this is almost laughable. —Theopolisme (talk) 15:48, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

I'm not a bot, I am a free man! --Demiurge1000 (talk) 17:43, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
Sorry, I didn't realize this was a sensitive subject. Kendall-K1 (talk) 01:36, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

From experience I've found that for recent events, PC is more suitable than semi-protection, since anons do add constructive content. I changed your semi-protection to PC1, but feel free to revert if vandalism becomes a major problem. -- King of 22:09, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

Nope, that makes a lot of sense :) --Errant (chat!) 22:42, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
