Steak sauce[edit]Hi there, Although I agree with your moving of the material from brown sauce into steak sauce, I'd appreciate it if you could note that the material has been moved (or taken from another article in the summary). Thank you. Fourohfour 17:54, 16 April 2007 (UTC) Signpost updated for April 16th, 2007.[edit]removed: this is just too inconvenient for the table of contents. Microwave gun[edit]We should start that article as it seems to brought up alot recently. what do you say? or if not add a paragraph about it on the microwave article. User:Maverick423 If It Looks Good Nuke It 21:30, 17 April 2007 (UTC) Heh that would be fun =) something like this user has fiddled with EM weapons on his spare time =P. but well as soon as i get home if not tommarow i'll start working on this. what should we call this anyway?

As I was creating it, I was trying to keep track of all of the necessary wiki formatting, but as it was my first page, knew I was falling short. I appreciate your help in this, particularly since I really needed someone to lend a hand to the necessary formatting. Much thanks! Pinotgrigio 09:26, 14 May 2007 (UTC) You helped choose Ludwig van Beethoven as this week's WP:ACID winner[edit]

We just released our test CD, which received a surprising amount of press coverage - this indicates that there is a lot of interest in what we're doing. Please help to make the next release even better! Let me know what you're interested in, or if you want some guidance. If you prefer, just take a look at the FAQ page and get started. Thanks! Walkerma 02:19, 1 May 2007 (UTC) Hi, sorry i came back after a while and read your really long reply, the 2nd last one near the end with the equation. Thanks for it, though it was abeit confusing. Thanks.100110100 05:57, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
User trouble[edit]Hi I wasn't sure who to go to but you seemed like the right person :P someone keeps removing links from the coilgun section and they claim that the links are broken or contain explicit content even though they do not. This normally wouldn't be a big deal but it's been going on for a long time (check out the history) there was even a RfC at one point and it was decided that the links should stay in but the user seems to be ignoring that. His name is TTLLOGIC. Sorry to bug you for something so trivial but I just hate it when good information is left out of an article :D especially since information on coil guns is pretty scarce even on the internet.Wonkothe31337 04:15, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
heylo there!! ;-)[edit]Dear Mac Davis, Hello, it's RR! You might remember me from August 2006, when someone tried to delete a whole bhambhoozles of Halo articles. ;-) Well, most of those articles I believe have been deleted, and I've drifted away from Wikipedia in disgust of other AfDs...but, erhm, I've come back, and...whas'up, m'man? ;-) BTW, there is a Halo Wikia: http://halo.wikia.com . If you're interested, I'm sure that your contributions would be most invaluable there! ;-) Cheers, RelentlessRecusant 11:57, 6 May 2007 (UTC) Signpost updated for May 7th, 2007.[edit]

Ralbot 06:24, 8 May 2007 (UTC) Orphaned fair use image (Image:Breeshrine.jpg)[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Breeshrine.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy). 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. BetacommandBot 19:13, 11 May 2007 (UTC) Squid[edit]Sorry about that, I must have made the edit right as Kurini made his/hers. Wildthing61476 19:40, 11 May 2007 (UTC) References[edit]Yes, I will make this... Felipe Chicago Midway Airport[edit]Hey Mac Davis- In order to get KMDW to GA Status, Zeus1234 has requested I provide a fair-use rationale for the picture of Flight 1248. I don't know what that is...do you? Sox23 01:12, 14 May 2007 (UTC) (by the way, I didn't want to delete that info I just did so MDW would pass and finally become the GA I know it is)
Garrett A. Morgan[edit]Hello, I see that you have played a part in recent changes at Garrett A. Morgan. I ask you to please have a look at the Talk page for this article. I have been at pains for months to undo edits which fly in the face of well-documented facts, and I fear that, recently, you have ended up in the midst of this fray. I am a researcher, historian, and admirer of Morgan, who has spent many years working with Mr. Morgan's papers; I only seek to have his entry reflect the facts as they are, follow NPOV, and to link to any and all relevant pages which reference them, but I have been inundated by folks who just want to use Morgan to blow their own horns. I can't keep up. If you agree that what I have tried to maintain here is reasonably accurate, please protect this page; I can't keep up with the mix of reverts and vandalism, and am at my wit's end. Clevelander96 01:59, 14 May 2007 (UTC) I've asked Clevelander for further details. - Mgm|(talk) 07:55, 14 May 2007 (UTC) Hello, and many thanks for your reply -- I have responded to your request for details on my own Talk page. Clevelander96 08:25, 14 May 2007 (UTC) Orphaned non-free image (Image:Dave "Phoenix" Farrell.png)[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Dave "Phoenix" Farrell.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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.

The user has received no warnings since their last block in April. Please try warning them before reporting them to AIV. Waggers 10:05, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
Re:Hello[edit]Hello again CattleGirl, I see you've made your way to becoming an administrator! *high five* Anyway, I've come here because I noticed constant revisions while I was monitoring the #vandalism-en-wp IRC channel on User_talk:Dfjng. I peeked back in the history and noticed that you added a block notice and the phrase "Please note that continuous reversions of this page may result in the page being protected." This is definitely what is happening, as you can see. User:DarkSaber2k and User:Stephenb may be making quesitonable amounts of reversions that are mucking up my vandal hunting spaces. We've got much better things for them to do than revert a blocked user's talk page! Thanks, [Mac Δαvιs] ❖ 10:21, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
Tagging of Unicorn gallery[edit]I recently removed a speedy delete tag that you had placed on Unicorn gallery. I do not think that Unicorn gallery fits any of the speedy deletion criteria because it clearly has context - staing that it is an art gallery in a specific city is enough context for an editor to find more info. it also has sources cited. This is clearly not a speedy at this point, try AfD if you think it should be deleted. DES (talk) 18:40, 15 May 2007 (UTC) Tintern Abbey Move[edit]You look like an experienced editor, so I am surprised that you moved the article "Tintern Abbey (poem)" to "Lines Composed a Few Miles above Tintern Abbey, on Revisiting the Banks of the Wye during a Tour. July 13, 1798". Have you seen Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names)? Dave Runger 08:36, 18 May 2007 (UTC) Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Quicksilverscreenshot.png[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Quicksilverscreenshot.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 14:19, 21 January 2008 (UTC) Admin Coaching Re-confirmation[edit]Hello, previously you expressed interest in participating in the Wikipedia:Admin coaching project. We are currently conducting a reconfirmation drive to give coaches the opportunity to update their information and capacity to participate in the project. Please visit Wikipedia:Admin coaching/Status to update your status. Also, please remember to update your capacity (5th table variable) in the form of a fraction (eg. 2/3 means you are currently coaching 2 students, and could accept 1 more student). Thank you.

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Ralbot (talk) 23:16, 19 March 2008 (UTC) "Why do you insist on blanking?"[edit]You ask, "why do you insist on continually blanking your talk page?" I am not the only person using this IP address to contribute to Wikipedia, although I am the most prolific. (This is also not the only IP address I have contributed from.) If I perceive a message on the IP address's talk page as having been intended for me, once I have read it (and replied if appropriate), I delete it so as not to confuse others using the same IP address. Even if I registered and therefore had my own private talk page, I would still delete old content from it, as I see no reason for it to persist. According to the relevant guideline (look under "Discussion page vandalism"), blanking one's own talk page is "specifically not prohibited". --207.176.159.90 (talk) 22:43, 24 March 2008 (UTC) Signpost updated for March 24th, 2008.[edit]

Bright Eyes[edit]Hello, Was it you who deleted all (well, most) of the past contributors from the list on the bright eyes page? i feel tempted to revert it, because it is widely-known that bright eyes as a band, is a collective and selective, ever-changing line-up of artists who work/have worked with Conor. All of these artists (the ones with notable refs at least) would be appalled to read that their name had been wiped from the article about a band they were once apart of. I suppose this may exclude the (majority of) artists who only played on one track, but there are several notable and reoccuring artists featured in bright eyes that have been omitted. If this was not you, sorry for ranting on your Talk. Do you agree that this list should be reverted, if not modified/condensed? Thanks. Corythepaperboy (talk) 07:02, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
Re: Bright Eyes[edit]Sorry for mistaking you, the history of that site is confusing and im still quite new to this. Thanks for agreeing to weed through the list of contributors.
