Smash!
You've been squished by a whale!
Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know you did something really silly.
WP:#How egotistical power users (over)react.

- I LOL'd 'til my eyes watered when I found the "power users" link above. A dramatic production I watched recently seemed based on it. May have drawn on WP:DIVA as well. Further scene development likely done at meatball:goodbye. Movies can be so formulaic sometimes.
- Please do not bite the newcomers ColonelHenry. Don't be a WikiVampire. There's too much at stake.
"Once in a while
you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right" —Robert Hunter
My knowledge of— and experience with —Wikipedia's inner workings has increased exponentially since bumping into you last week. You inspired me to read up on guidelines and to better acquaint myself with it's tools and resources and to look more closely into the dynamics of the community. I also came to meditate on when and whether it's wise to take sharp points to heart.
'One to grow on' as they say. Hope spring brings new growth for you as well.
Thank You Colonel & Happy May Day,

- p.s. —Found 'Template:Colonel' while snoopin' about. Might make a handy addition to your arsenal. Whimsy may succeed where barbed words fail. --Kevjonesin (talk)
Plip!
Thank You! : }

Whack! You've been whacked with a wet trout. Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly. |
Thanks for expanding Adulterine castle from a redirect to an article page. Doing so quite fully addresses— and then some —my concerns about user accessibility. And earns you a side of {{chips}} to accompany your serving of {{trout}}.
The 'fish slap' itself is for helping to make a simple routine font edit into an extensive ordea... err... adventure. With a little extra wrist for lack of (expressed) remorse. However, once again, the new article looks to be off to a great start so enjoy your 'chips'. Hope I didn't add too much vinegar. ;-)
Upon reflection, 'silver linings' abound as the wiki has grown beyond either of our initial intentions. A boldfaced redirect term has grown into a free standing article and an oversight in the WP:MOS (specifically in MOS:BOLDFACE) has been corrected to account for WP:Redirect's WP:R#PLA section. A peculiar form of team work, perhaps, but I must admit it's also been an effective one. : }
