Hi! Just wanted to say I thought your recent edits to Calvin and Hobbes were well done. Nice job! Alanyst 02:39, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Lasertag
Thanks for catching my careless typing. - Stephanie Daugherty (Triona) - Talk - Comment - 04:07, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
I agree pictures would be nice. Going to be difficult to accomplish that though, at least of indoor lasertag (which is probably more prevelant). The lighting used doesn't lend itself to easy photography, not to mention that the arenas themselves could probably be classified as "creative works" and therefore under copyright. I'll see what I can figure out - I don't have a camera currently that performs with almost no visible light. - Stephanie Daugherty (Triona) - Talk - Comment - 07:48, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Substituting templates
Hi. I just had an edit collision with you while dropping a note on an anonymous user's talk page. I just thought I'd let you know that it's suggested that you use subst: with user warning templates. Thanks for helping out with the vandals! -- Zwilson 06:47, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
Reformed vandal
I'd Like To Say I'm sorry for any disruptions caused, ps. the kenny chesney dude. yours sincerely sorry. a mike jones fan. tchau bicha, voce e muito viado.
revert again
could you recall me how to revert the last change of an article ? the one you fixed (art. of confeder.) has again been vandalized — MFH:Talk 15:00, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
Warnings
Sorry i forgot about that i will do it from now on ILovePlankton 02:36, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
AID
Moe
That's OK. I think you can justifiably prod a character if you think he's non notable, but as there's a few fictional characters named Moe and as the article had no content I think a disambiguation page would do it. CanadianCaesar The Republic Restored 04:57, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
RfC on john o
1. You forgot to sign the RfC.
2. In order to have the RfC "certified", you will need to get another signature to it within 48 hours from the first signature. I assume that someone else also tried to reason with john o about the tags. Please get them to sign also.
3. See my summary of the case in the RfC. (-: Robert McClenon 00:30, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- I've posted a note on John oh's talk page about our deletion process. AGF, this editor may have just needed to have this VERY CLEARY spelled out to them, but this seems as more of a process issue, then of a true vandalism issue, thus my prior delisting on AIV. Due to their history, I'd probally support short term blocks if they breach WP:1RR regarding removal of xfd notices in the future now, as diruptive editing. xaosflux Talk/CVU 14:24, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
- Hopefully that talk note was all it took, and they didnt jsut go on wikibreak :) xaosflux Talk/CVU 02:00, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
My RFA
Thanks for participating in my RfA. It passed with a final tally of 98/13/10, just two short of making WP:100. If you need my help with anything, don't hesitate to ask. |

Calvin and Hobbes - Important Disucssion
Would you mind coming down to the Calvin and Hobbes talk page to disucss whether or not we should keep fan sites in the links? There seems to be someone who think we should not. Thank you! Mjg0503 00:09, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
RFC on John oh
I regret to advise you that the RFC you filed on John oh was not certified by two or more users within 48 hours of its creation, and as a result it has been deleted. Stifle 23:19, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Homosexual interpretations of Batman
Noticed your comments on this were unrelated to the reason for deletion. I do not dispute the quality of the material, only its improper fork from its legitimate place. I would be grateful for your thoughts on this matter. Haiduc 04:00, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Taylor Lea Thomas
Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that the article on Taylor Lea Thomas has undergone significant changes as you will see and will continue to improve with time. I appreciate you reading the article in the first place. We are trying all we can to make the article better suited for Wikipedia because Ms. Thomas has accomplished a lot and has received many awards and press for it and therefore, appropriate for this medium. I hope that you will soon see this for yourself and opt instead to keep the article. Thank you kindly. Peter Sanders 14:15, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your tips
That was my first deletion. LeoO3 03:47, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for voting on my RfA. It passed with a consensus to promote of 45/7/1. To those of you concerned about the fact that I am a relative newcomer, I encourage you to poke me with a sharp stick if I make a mistake.

My RfA recently closed and it was a success, passing at 84-02-00. I would like to thank you for taking the time to weigh in and on your subsequent support.

Just to let you know, the immature user was imitating you on his user talk page. I'm not sure if that's allowed or not, but I thought I'd tell you. Philc 0780 21:27, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Villain article
I was told that I could edit pages as long as the edits made a reasonable amount of sense, and that this was a place for people to share their knowledge. Well, I told them that if people are going to edit my new section while I'm, while I'm trying to expand it then I should be able to revert it while I'm finding sources for my names so I don't see why I should have to stand for this because I enjoy, making reasonable edits to Wikipedia and I've been accused of vandalism in the past when I was just trying to add to articles and if my writing is of poor quality, then just say so and give me the benefit of the doubt regarding vandalism and trolling because just because I'm not the best writer doesn't make me a troll or a vandal and I told, I told them that I'm just trying to expand Wikipedia especially on a former featured article like villain, but then they called me a troll, and just because I don't write very well or very important things doesn't make me a troll, what happened to don't bite the newcomers and benefit of the doubt? And I received a message calling my contributions worthless and saying I'm harassing the other editors when I just thought that it wasn't right to blank out new sections just because some person or other doens't find it interesting, well not everything on Wikipedia has to be interesting, it jsut has to be factual and my list while incomplete is quite accurate, so I don't see why I'm being called a troll and a vandal and a harrasser of respected editors when I have done nothing malicious, an I don't understand why Wikipedia as such mixed messages in the guidelines such as Be Bold and now I am being ostracized as a troll, when perhaps the real problem is that my writing is poor perhaps? That's certainly possible, but I am not a troll so continue to eliminate my contributions if you feel it is necessary but do not be so rash as to assume I'm a troll, because if I'm banned from reading Wikipedia because my motives are being called into question by strangers, I'll never improve my contributions if I get banned so soon after learning to edit the pages and I don't see how the Wikipedia community has ever expanded so greatly when newcomers are treated like so, so I certainly hope that I am an unlucky and isolated case, and if not I could write a letter to the Wikipedia staff to complain about their treatment of newcomers, and dissuade people from joining the editing community and suffering similiar abuses.
Sorry for the long message but when I receive such harsh accusations as trolling and harassment from various users (not just you) I feel the need to defend myself before I receive the banhammer. 70.171.59.231 04:38, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
...for tagging the Talk page of Wenzeled, I missed it. It was not deleted "without discussion" mind, there was a short-lived AfD here Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wenzeled, note the references to other and previous incarnations. The article has been deleted by four separate admins as an attack. Just zis Guy you know? 12:18, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the barnstar
I just noticed it. I try to do the homework on the AfD's, because it seems a lot of people vote in a knee jerk fashion, or have some point they're trying to make. I also try to be polite to the newcomers, even when they're being really obtuse about why their newly minted word or religion doesn't make the cut. Fan1967 04:50, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
RE: Indentation
Yes, I do that sometimes in long discussions. Although I see that I should have done it at C&H because the previous user had not signed his comment. Thanks for pointing that out for me. - Mike (talk) 02:28, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
Attack on my talk page
Thanks for removing the attack on my user page from 69.112.108.167 (talk · contribs · count). Based on the fact that he signed his name here [1], he's [name deleted], who usually signs in as: Sevenlinefeatures (talk · contribs · count). He's the writer, director, producer, cinematographer, actor, editor of The Long Island Project, an extremely low-budget indy movie that is going through an AfD right now. Based on the timing, he may have been unhappy about a response I gave, thats now on the AfD's talk page. Since there's no indication the movie actually has any real release (their promotional websites are on geocities and myspace), the article's almost certainly going to be deleted. I guess he's not happy about it. Fan1967 15:37, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
Name Deletion
Note that I've deleted my name from the last post, do not put it back up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sevenlinefeatures (talk • contribs)
Warning you gave me
You just warned me not to include links to "private sites" here on Wikipedia. As you well know Feezo, there are thousands of links to private websites on Wikipedia. They belong here because they are relevant (under the heading "External sites". As long as such links exist to other sites, please do not suggest that my link should not be on that page and at the same time leave the other links to other site there.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.98.103.108 (talk • contribs)
American Flight 191, etc.
He's also doing it to various baseball sites, such as Union Association and some other leagues, and who knows what all else. Someone else had deleted it earlier, and I followed suit when he re-added it. However, I only deleted it from the Flight 191 site, as a "test", and apparently he took the bait. I would say you could go ahead and submit it. It's obviously an anonymous user and it looks like spam. These guys just keep popping up, like bad pennies. Wahkeenah 04:19, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- Oops, sorry, it looks like he has not added it back a third time yet, my reversion is the latest entry. I would say if he does it again, "The third time's the charm", and then you could go ahead and submit it. Wahkeenah 04:21, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza
Hi Feezo. Thank you for the welcome to Esperanza. I wanted to join Esperanza because I like the positiveness of it. I would like to work with newcomers to help build the Wikipedia community and if theres anyway to integrate these efforts into Esperanza I am more than willing to help out for the cause. I will look at Esperanza's current programs and see what I can do. Waikiki!!! ^_^ --User:ElectricEye (talk) 14:19, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update
As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.
As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.
Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
Looking at your recent contributions you are around but not particularly active, so I wanted to check if you are you still interested in receiving admin coaching? Petros471 11:48, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry for my slow reply. As you're at the top of the list, I don't think it's fair to remove you completely, but you aren't really active enough at the moment to benefit from the program. So I'm going to move your request to the 'held' section on Wikipedia:Esperanza/Programs/Coaching box (not in the actual box). When you feel you are able to spend more time on Wikipedia, just add yourself to the 'Unassigned' section of the box, and you'll be assigned coaches as soon as possible.

Congratulations!
Just noticed that you passed the 2,000 edit mark! Congrats, and nice work you've done on Calvin and Hobbes for all this time! - Mike (Trick or treat) 18:57, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks, glad you like the new sig! When I check my edit count sometimes I check the edit counts of some other users I came accross around here early on to see where I stand in comparison. Just happened to type yours in this time, and I saw an exact "2,000" as your count. That was the first time I'd seen such a round number, so I thought I'd just leave you a note on your talk page. Probably I'll pass 2,000 in a few weeks as well. - Mike (Trick or treat) 19:30, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
Sig
I guess I can't win with my sig. Somebody asked me to change the one you liked on my editor review and now since I've chaged it I've been asked to change it again on my talk page! It's only a temporary sig, so I think I'll leave it as it is for now, as I don't find this new one to be that distracting when editing the page. I guess I'll have to lay off on the fancy sigs in the future though... - Mike | trick or treat 00:57, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
Admin coaching - October 30 - Held requests
As it's been a while since you signed up for admin coaching, I am just checking that you still wish to receive it. Leave a note on my talk page, and I'll assign you some of our free coaches. Let me know (on my talk page) if you have any questions. Cheers, Highway Grammar Enforcer! 23:22, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
Admin coaching - November 1
Your coaches are HighwayCello and Natalya. Exactly what form the admin coaching takes is up to you and the coaches to decide, but a general piece of advice I give is to set up a user subpage (for example User:EXAMPLE/Admin coaching) to keep coaching discussion together. That prevents things getting split up over three talk pages, which can get confusing! Let me know on my talk page if you have any questions. Cheers, Highway Grammar Enforcer! 17:02, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
- User:Feezo/Admin coaching has been created to host your coaching. Cheers, Highway Grammar Enforcer! 22:50, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Article about Wikipedia Users
Hello,
I am a freelance writer working on an article about the wide array of people who make Wikipedia their life, their passion, their pastime. Wikipedia “addicts” if you will. I'm also looking at all the "behind the scenes" goings on at Wikipedia that the average reader of the site never knows about. I intend on focusing a little on several of the unofficial Wikipedia organizations that members are a part of such as Esperenza et al. As such, I would like to speak to you about your experience with the Admin Coaching program. If you are interested in participating, please email me at brianwrites@gmail.com.
