AUSC
Hi Guerillero. Just a quick note to say the committee (or those of us who are about) are actively discussing what to do about AUSC at the moment. I'd appreciate it if you could hold off stepping down for the time being? I'll keep you posted about what's going on. WormTT(talk) 07:32, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you for the note WTT. I will stay on. --In actu (Guerillero) | My Talk 15:07, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you, I do appreciate it. I'm sorry the committee has been quite so useless over the matter - we're debating what we should do with AUSC all together! WormTT(talk) 07:44, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
OA for Writing Course?
Hi Guerillero!
I am looking for two online ambassadors to help with a course I'm teaching in the Education program. More specifically, I'm hoping to find a few ambassadors who can review student proposals for possible edits and sources from July 25th to July 30 and then review article drafts from July 30 to August 11. I'm working on putting the full schedule up on the course page but those would be the main duties of the ambassadors involved. Think you'd be interested?

Thank you for removing the cruft from Inbound marketing. Business bullshit fills me with a certain kind of despair that prevents me from doing anything about it. Glad you aren't similarly afflicted. —Tom Morris (talk) 22:17, 7 July 2014 (UTC) |

Disambiguation link notification for July 21
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Washington College alumni, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sarah Connor. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Blocked user
Hi, I'm asking about one of your checkuser blocks, on SCIENCE_MEANS_REALITY. The user in question was affected by an ISP rangeblock and so had to have the account created by Nihiltres. Given that the ip was already blocked, how likely is it that the LTA diagnosis from the CU tool could be a mis-diagnosis? Sorry if the answer is obvious, but I'm unfamiliar with the tool and its results. The user admits to being a bit combative on IRC but feels the reason for blocking is false. Thanks --Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 16:07, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
- I am 100% sure that SMR is a LTA account. The message I received from him this morning closes all doubts. --In actu (Guerillero) | My Talk 20:36, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
Thanks
