DYK redux

Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article Kasabach-Merritt syndrome, which you recently nominated, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Thanks for your contributions! ++Lar: t/c 21:56, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Queen's University

It's called for. The main person who disagrees with me JaysCyYoung, is friends with User:Tykell. Evidence. That's meat puppetry. Before that he'd never contributed to the Queen's U article. And today a new user, LeftCoast (talk · contribs) suddenly pops up just to comment there. That is also meat puppetry. I rest my case. Ardenn 00:49, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I put it there because I wanted to let them all know I'm on to them, and so the "overseeing admin" is also aware. Ardenn 00:53, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm hoping it'll help prevent a rush of "new users" commenting on just the one article. Ardenn 00:53, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I did put it on their talk pages as well. I appreciate that. I did list it on RFC. Ardenn 00:56, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

With comments like this I can't reason with the guy. Ardenn 01:43, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm feeling a little frustrated over the attacks, so I apprecaite the level-headed help. Ardenn 02:09, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm honoured

I'm really touched that someone found my vandalism reversion so effective (read annoying) that he took the trouble to create a vandal account & vandalize my user page! I only wish he had thought of a more creative name (I mean "Srikeit is a loser" is so lame) ;D. But thanks for warning him. It's nice to know there's someone out there to watch your back.

Cheers

Thank you very much

Your message: Dear Bhadaniji, thank you for your help and quick consideration to my trivial concerns when you have been dealing with far greater problems. I hope that the threatening e-mail problem has resolved itself. Many thanks again -- Samir

Thank you!

Hey there, Samir — and Thank you so much for your support on my recent Nomination for Adminship. It succeeded with a final tally of 85/11/6 and I am now an administrator. Don't hesitate to ask for help if you need it. Bastique▼^parler_voir 22:46, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RfA thanks

Thanks

Samir/Archive 4, thank you you so much for validating my RfA! I am grateful for all the supportive comments, and have taken both the positive and constructive on board. If I can ever make any improvements or help out in any way, please let me know, ditto if you see me stumble! Thanks again for your much appreciated support.

Samir, appreciate all your support recently. Nice one, Deizio talk 23:18, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

DYK

Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article Schatzki ring, which you recently nominated, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

--Cactus.man ✍ 17:10, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think this is normal, but here goes

You're probably a busy guy and get a lot of messages - you seem to be a very diligent contributor with a lot of subject knowledge. This is pretty unusual but I saw your "did you know" article, and accordingly I was wondering if you could e-doctor me, if that's a valid phrase.

After swallowing, usually some large mouthful of meat, I sometimes feel my throat seize up. This goes on for a couple of hours, and in that time I'm unable to swallow. Anything. Food, liquids, saliva. It's irritating and pretty disgusting. It's ruined evenings for me. It's probably happened six or seven times over the past three years. I went to the hospital to see if they knew what was going on; bear in mind this wasn't during a spasm (which is what I've come to call it). They made me swallow some disgusting white viscous crap and x-rayed me. They found nothing. I had a sneaking suspicion of their imbecility.

So - as an altruistic gastroenterologist, what can you tell me, if anything? I'd be indebted to you for any help. Thankyou, Seegoon 20:57, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sukh's RFA - Thanks!

Thank you for your vote on my RfA. Unfortunately there was no consensus reached at 43 support, 18 oppose and 8 neutral. I've just found out that there is a feature in "my preferences" that forces me to use edit summaries. I've now got it enabled :) Thanks again. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 15:44, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My RFA

Thank you, Samir (The Scope), for voting in my RFA. It closed with a final result of 75/1/0. Now that I am an administrator here, I will continue to improve this encyclopedia, using my new tools to revert vandalism, block persistent vandals, protect pages that have been vandalized intensively, and close AFD discussions. Any questions? Please contact me by adding a new section on my talk page. Again, thanks to all of you who participated!!! -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 23:16, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank-you

The count is in, and now I join the crew who wield the mops and pails.

Thanks for your support! I pledge to serve both you and Jimbo Wales.

If you have anything you need, then please don't think to hesitate.

For I am the very model of a grateful admin designate!

Scleroderma

I added to the renal section of scleroderma. Nothing spectacular... but a few more of the basics are there. Nephron T|C 00:10, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merci beaucoup!

Thank you, Samir/Archive 4!
Thank you for voting for my recent RfA, which passed (to my extreme surprise and shock) with a total tally of 66/15/2. For that, I would like to thank you and offer a helping hand in any admin-related tasks that may be required -- it's as simple as leaving a message on my talkpage. Thanks again! -→Buchanan-Hermit ™/!? 22:20, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for taking care of the vandalism on my userpage. Carbine has taken a liking to mine and a couple others in his time here. Tijuana Brass^E@ 07:24, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alex Romano

I'm not crazy about the entry either, but the channel's homepage lists him, which is a pretty solid source. Too bad I can't find him in IMDB. AFD it if you still find it too sketchy after my rewrite. :) - Mgm|^(talk) 09:53, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Userpage reversion

Yay! Thanks! (That makes it TWO vandalisms in one day. Though I wouldn't really call the second vandalism. It was more like a lack of experience.) --M1ss1ontom a rs2k4 | T | C | @ 23:38, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

LOL ;). I left him a message essentially telling him to explain his actions, since it looked to me like he was simply blanking the criticisms section. --M1ss1ontom a rs2k4 | T | C | @ 23:48, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edited article for deletion

I have just done a major cleanup and have made it say that it is a health fraud right after the first name.

My commiserations. I too was shocked and chagrined at the results. Your withdrawal was very classy in my opinion -- Samir धर्म 03:58, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your Oppose Vote

Thank you for your input. I realise how mainspace edits may be most appreciated. I will work more specifically in Wikipedia: and main from now on I guess! :) ~LinuxeristFile:Tux-linux logo.svg E/L/T 10:31, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your recent vote on my RFA, regardless of how you voted. I appreciate all votes. I am going to wait until I have more edits in all namespaces. (And also improve answering impossible questions ;). Hopefully one day I will be more sucessful than it was looking, once I meet most user's voting standards.

Congratulations

Samir, You cannot prove or disprove that I am the assistant of Jimbo Wales. These acts of "vandalism" have been a test on the integrity of the Wikipedia system and you abilities. I congratulate you on your fast response. Thank you.

Lol! That is the wierdest comment I have read. Let's see how much I can find out about this guy. This says that he is from Denton, Texas. This says that the IP is Electric Lightwave Inc. based in Vancouver. Probably more tools could tell more about you. - Aksi_great (talk) 20:42, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

All is well (except my internet bill). Don't ignore the patients for too long. And don't sign the patient reports with ~~~~ :) - Aksi_great (talk) 20:47, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It has taken a toll on my personal life. I once wrote ~~~~ at the end of one e-mail and quite often do it while posting scraps on Orkut. Using it freely here → -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 21:04, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think there are some points on "Are you a wikiholic?" test for doing that. Wikiholic scores seems to have gone out of fashion. There are some really nice questions there like "Do you search for an edit button on normal pages." I thought that question was silly until one day I actually did that! - Aksi_great (talk) 21:19, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

Hi! Its been a long time we communicated. How are you? I have an exam shortly, so a bit less active. Just happened to see your question in India Quiz right now and hit it. I saw you had some DYKs lately. Sorry was not around to read the article, though u requested. Are you keeping abreast of this?--Dwaipayan (talk) 20:11, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Samir, There was not need to revert the changes that I had made to the Nehru Article. There is credible information that Nehru died of Syphillis, a sexually transmitted diseases. The reference that I had cited was from a credible source, not just some random blog. Please don't shy away from the reality of some Indian politicians.

Blnguyen's RfA

File:Atlanticpuffin4.jpg

Hello Samir. Thank you for your support at request for adminship and your gracious statement in my Editor review was also highly influential, as it was quoted by many RfA participants and strongly contributed to the overwhelming and flattering result of (160/1/0) was in large part, and leaves me in a position of having to live up to a high standard of community expectation. If you need help with admin related tasks, feel free to ask me - and of course, if I make any procedural mistakes, feel free to point them out. Of course, I look forward to working with you in the future. Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 06:15, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Drumstick (fruit) revert

Thanks for the revert. No idea why is was pointing to Sierra Leone music, but it's obviously not correct. Waitak 05:25, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Now if I can just find somebody in Hong Kong who'll sell me the leaves so that I can try them... you can buy the drumsticks here, but I can't find the leaves for the life of me. Waitak 05:48, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
