About you're participation in the BUPC
The BUPC has full support for MfD, so we'll finish out the round in my sandbox if you wish to continue, this will be the final round, and I have preserved the archive in my sandbox too as an archive. Notify me if you wish to continue. My sandbox is located at User:Kkrouni/Sandbox--Kkrouni/こかるに/Ккроуни/ΚκρΩυνι 16:56, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- I'll continue that's alright. I'm still in as long as my name appears in your sandbox right? Lradrama 19:56, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Severus caption edit
I think the part about Snape 'protecting' the students is a bit much, esp. when we consider that his true nature isn't really revealed until the end. I am not saying he is a dick, but he does seem rather above being all protective of the students. That's what drove the revert. No offense as to your editing skills was intended. I appreciate you coming to me right away and asking me about it. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 20:03, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- OK, thanks for the reply, no worries at all. Yes, as I made the edit, I was thinking about the same issue as yourself, but I couldn't find another 'suitable' word other than 'protecting'. Shielding might have been better looking back now, but as you said, that indicates a revelation we discover near the end. Happy editing! Lradrama 20:19, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Greetings
Thanks for your help! I appreciate it! TAZ44 16:20, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
You're welcome
Will (aka Wimt) has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy editing!
Smile at others by adding {{Smile}} to their talk page with a friendly message.
Have a smile back in return :-) You're very welcome for the revert! Will (aka Wimt) 17:30, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Another thanks
Thanks for the suggestion to create account. I'm actually a "lapsed" editor (Arcturus) who just happens to be passing by.
Cheers. 82.3.72.233 17:56, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
- We seem to have some user boxes in common (User:Arcturus). Why not try the 'Real Lancashire' userbox? Incidentally, I'm off now, but keep an eye on Pablo Picasso. There's a concerted attempt to vandalise it. 82.3.72.233 18:05, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Characters in The Belgariad
The reason I deleated that section was simply because those characters do not appear in the Belgariad, they appear in the squeul series the Mallereon. So I saw no point in them being there.Wild ste 13:01, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

| Thank you for showing your support for me in my recent RfA. Unfortunately, I was unable to earn the required consensus and did not succeed. I do hope to put in another request in a few months, once I have improved upon the concerns addressed by the rest of the participants. Your expressed trust in me will definitely help me reach that goal. Thank you again, and happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 01:31, 5 September 2007 (UTC) | ||
- You're very welcome! I hope you are successful next time. If you take on board the points raised by voters on this RfA, I'm sure you'll do much better next time around. Lradrama 08:40, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Heya. You commented here, and I wanted to let you know I moved the discussion to WP:RFD where it belongs. Just a courtesy notice. --UsaSatsui 16:04, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Confused
I just received a comment from you out of the blue on how to edit pages and whatnot on Wikipedia when I've been doing so for a while. Did I suddenly do something wrong, or was this because the other night I was braindead tired when trying to write something on a discussion page and took three tries to sign my name at the end and be logged in at the same time? ;D Sleepsong 04:51, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
- Hello there, yes, I see you have been editing Wikipedia for a while, but I also noticed you hadn't had your talkpage started. And the good old welcome message is a great way to start it! It gives great pointers that are really useful to everyone. Anybody who has contributed well to this website and is without any discussions, I provide them with a welcome template. I hope that's OK! Happy editing! Lradrama 13:28, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi Lradrama, I was wondering if you could at some point review the Malaysian article for us. If you can, that would be be very greatful, thanks. (Discussion PR) Davnel03 18:40, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Dramarama
Hello. Thanks for the message. Yes, the US schools do need doing too, but I'd run out of energy by the time I'd worked my way through the UK ones. Might be a couple missing there too - or did Webber Douglas merge with Central? I dunno, but they're categorised together now, so maybe. Don't know if you're active in the theatre project or not, but it'd be good to get your opinion on this if you have a spare moment - don't seem to be too many theatre people around at the moment. DionysosProteus 22:48, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- You're welcome. Yes it looks like an interesting discussion and I've posted a comment, although I'll probably post more as things progress! I've joined the Wikiproject fully actually - it's one of three I'm involved in, so my time is getting increasingly divided! BTW, as yet I'm unsure about the Douglas school. I know Central kind of merged with the University of London, which means students can have accomodation and such like from that university, but I'm as yet unsure about the Douglas bit. It'll need research. I haven't found anything in Central's prospectus on that, but I'll probably need to have another thorough read through! Happy editing! Lradrama 18:27, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

The now-traditional RFA thank-spam
Dear Lradrama,
Thank you for your participation in my RFA, which closed successfully with 83 supports, 1 oppose, and 0 neutrals. No matter if you voted (I mean, "!voted") support or oppose, I thank you for taking the time to drop by. I'm new, remember, so if you have any suggestions feel free to inform me of them, and if I do anything wrong, feel free to add to the permanent chorus of disapproval on my talk page. Special thanks to WaltonOne and Dihydrogen Monoxide for nominating me.

Maybe, only adding a personal note: that talking to you was long overdue, my friend; and you reminded me of my fault in not dropping by and visiting you before, with your kind and beautiful gesture to me. I'm joyed that this modest gift has made your day at least a little better, for a wonderful person like you deserves all the happiness we can give you.

Samulili RfA
Hey, Lradrama. Thanks for replying to my comment at Samulili's RfA. In retrospect, I wish that I had worded my comment less dramatically. At any rate, I wanted to post here to thank you for engaging in discussion! I am of the opinion that RfA too closely resembles a vote and also that such a system is not a good thing. Anyways, I enjoy discussion on RfA's whenever one arises, so thanks for discussing! --Iamunknown 05:36, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
- You're very welcome! Yes, I hate it when people leave discussion points and don't participate, so I was happy to share my views. Don't worry about the wording, we all do it like that, and go on to endure the afterthought! Do you have any views on what RfA should be like? A sort of test maybe rather than a cummunity vote?

Vandalism warning for User:69.177.178.105
Is a vandalism warning really justified here? The user removed their own question a few minutes after posting it, and moved it to a different Village pump page. The edit summary may have been incorrect, but a vandalism warning seems kind of bitey to me. --Onorem♠Dil 16:50, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
- On recent changes patrol, one often goes rather fast and mistakes are common unfortunately. From what I saw, this IP undid a revision by a Bot which signed an unsigned comment, and that is usually considered vandalism by some people. It appears you looked into the situation deeper than I did. :-) Lradrama 16:52, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
To Lradrama or anyone else you can help, I am the accused. Is it ok, that I post this here? This response is not an attempt at vandalizing your site. I'm sorry if I've done something wrong. I have no idea what I did wrong. I had a question that I was hoping to have answered. If I was unfairly accused then I expect an apology. If I have done something wrong then please clarify. Thank you.
- Hello and thankyou for not being abusive or anything and offering to discuss the matter politely. I respect you very much for that. You did nothing wrong. It was my mistake. I thought because you removed a comment from the Village Pump you were a vandal deleting posts. I thus reverted it. I should've looked into it more because it appears it was your own post that you movd to a better place, am I correct? Sorry about that. Lradrama 16:19, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
You know, I don't remember. I remember doing that somewhere, but am not sure if that was the place. Where was the original that you found deleted? 69.177.178.105 22:21, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
You've been loved by OneCoolKid

Hey there! OneCoolKid has loved you by placing a heart icon in the top-right corner of your userpage. Don't worry, it's not vandalism, but simply a small way to spread the WikiLove. If you don't really like it, feel free to revert it and make it go away, and no hard feelings; after all, it's just a small token of appreciation. If you like it, just add your name here, but again, there's no need to feel upset if you don't. Love and best wishes, OneCoolKid 14:08, 6 October 2007 (UTC) |

My recent RfA
I am sorry you felt it necessary to oppose my recent RfA, which did not succeed. I will attempt to get more experience in the main namespace and the Wikipedia namespace and will try again for RfA in two month's time. I hope I will have satisfied your concerns by then, but if not, please comment as you feel you should. You also voiced concerns about how my bot was so great but I didn't have that many edits. While this is true, if I had taken the time I put into my bot and put it into other areas of Wikipedia, I would have more edits which would put me up around that of other administrators passing RfA. My bot has over 40k edits, which, due to the nature of bots, could be considered mine. Thanks for participating in my RfA. -- Cobi(t|c|b|cn) 07:24, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
- Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be a very successful administrator before long. I'm sorry if you were left feeling down by what I voted, I really am. Just address the issues that were left on your RfA by the participants and you will be successful. Happy editing. Lradrama 17:15, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

No worries
Don't worry - I don't think anyone is thinking badly of you! Part of the nature of Wikipedia is that people contribute as and when they can, and often go AWOL for a while. It's not a job, after all. Do let me know when you want help or advice - I tend not to be very organised, so I can need reminding! Cheers. 4u1e 17:24, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
- Thankyou! It's just that you get into doing different things here and there and as a result, one's attention gets diverted. When I get some breathing space, I'll be back at that article, no worries. Many thanks, Lradrama 09:08, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Censorship
I would appreciate it if you didn’t take it upon yourself to decide what Jimbo can’t be allowed to read. As you can see, Swatjester himself put my alert back in as well as his thoughful response). I had to resort to e-mail Jimbo a link to the discussion page history to ensure he gets the information. I’m curious now, did Jimbo ask you to do this service for him or did you just undertake that by yourself? Greg L (my talk) 18:57, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
- Greg, I think you're misreading something. Your comments weren't removed. Some random vandal's comments were removed (a regular practice on Jimbo's talk page). ⇒ SWATJester Denny Crane. 23:28, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
- I think the database was lagging behind a bit when he checked the diff. It's happened before to me. Thankfully most of the rollback tools, twinkle or otherwise, prevent this. 13:56, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
- P.S. I think I saw another occurrence of a discussion topic disappearing. If I start to scroll before the page has fully loaded, it seems to abort the rest of the download. I'm not sure; in this latest case, when I let go of the mouse, the page fully loaded. Regardless, the history file clearly shows that your edit was most proper and had nothing to do with what I wrote. I am terribly sorry for inconveniencing you. Greg L (my talk) 03:08, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
Welcome!
Hi Lradrama,
I guess me making a small error (why I had to edit a page a 2nd time) triggered you to create my discussion page with the "Welcome!" message. Actually I'm having the account for some time and - while I know your intentions to place it there are good - it feels kind of weird to me to get this copy&paste message. Just wanted to inform you. --Mpeylo 20:36, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
- I was only being friendly when providing you with the welcome message, I wasn't patronising you in any fashion. Most users, including myself, get a nice welcoming message such as this when we first start out, and I make it common practice to distribute them to newer users, or those who haven't been talked to by anyone yet. That's all. It's just a nice welcome into the community, with some helpful tips on how to become a great 'Wikipedian'. :-) Lradrama 15:29, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
