[edit] Thanks

Thanks for protecting the Marcus Aurelius article, particularly as I placed the request to protect it against anonymous IPs being anonymous myself (217.24.19.163). I'm active on Serbo-Croatian wiki, and it so just happened that I was comparing the article on Marcus Aurelius on sh Wikipedia with the one on English Wiki when I noticed that the article was under frequent attack here. Have no idea why a text on a Roman emperor who's been dead for almost 2000 years would matter so much to someone, but there you go ;-) Thanks again, and I've now registered here under the same username I use on the Serbo-Croatian Wiki, just to be on the safe side. --Igorwindsor 20:26, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Scottish national identity

Thanks for the semi, much appreciated. Out of interest, is there any alternative to semi-protection in cases like this (other than just allowing the vandalism and watchlisting)? Obviously it's not ideal to have the page semi-protected for the long term but I suspect this user will be pretty persistent in coming back if the protection is lifted. --YFB ¿ 22:14, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Report vandals to WP:AIV, after warning them. --Majorly 22:18, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WP:AIV

What on earth just happened? I think the database just hiccupped a bit. I removed two blocked vandals and AIV turns into a disambiguation page? ViridaeTalk 00:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Hehe I have no clue... --Majorly 00:20, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you

Thank you for supporting me in my RfA. My nomination succeeded and it's an honor to join the admin ranks. Thanks again and see you around! =) -- Gogo Dodo 05:07, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Delete

Hi, how do you request an image be deleted? I uploaded under wrong name, as it changed my name to selected file name before I spotted it. I have re-uploaded to correct name. ‎ Image:Wikipics 003.jpg is incorrect file that can be deleted.

Keith D 09:43, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Done. --Majorly 12:50, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
Thanks Keith D 13:13, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Even more interesting, [1]. Yay 35 edits! Nishkid64 22:05, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] どもありがとうございます!

Title says "Domo Arigato Gozaimasu!"; "Thank You Very Much!"

Sir, thank you so much for heeding my message and changing your vote! If I had a list of best friends made on the Internet, I would have added you there! Again, thank you!! --Denatsu-yama 00:27, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Please be sure to look at this diff, and add this shocking link to your oppose vote, since someone removed it. --Denatsu-yama 00:30, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
I added the link, you being trolling or not, that is disgraceful. --Majorly 00:36, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Xwrits

I'm sorry, but two days is not nearly enough time to wait to close an RfA, especially since it is not quite a runaway yet. youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 19:09, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Nevermind. Me read good one day :) youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 19:11, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Request for admiship

I accept. :) Do you want to list it or do you want me? Cbrown1023 00:46, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I did. Good luck! --Majorly 00:50, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
Thanks, and thanks for the nom! Cbrown1023 00:52, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
I don't really think that that oppose was justified, but what can you do? That is just his opinion... plus it goes against policy. :( It's okay, it's only one. Cbrown1023 21:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you for voting

Thank you for voting in my RfA which at 51/20/6 unfortunately did not achieve consensus. In closing the nomination, Essjay remarked that it was one of the better discussed RfAs seen recently and I would like to thank you and all others who chose to vote for making it as such. It was extremely humbling to see the large number of support votes, and the number of oppose votes and comments will help me to become stronger. I hope to run again for adminship soon. Thank you all once more. Wikiwoohoo 19:36, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your revert

Why did you revert my changes to User:American Brit? He said on his talk page that he's happy to have the help. It's not that big a deal, but you should know that "me and my mother" is most definitely not acceptable in that context. As a general rule of thumb, you should see what the sentence looks like without the "and so-and-so" part. "Me moved to Charleston, West Virginia" is absolutely incorrect. A sentence like "he gave a gift to me and my mother" is acceptable, because "he gave a gift to me" makes sense and "he gave a gift to I" does not. Hope that clears it up.

Additionally, your revert returned a lot of other mistakes to the page. There's no such thing as a "Babtist", and "homosexual" is not capitalized.

I am, of course, not going to get into an edit war over a user's page, but I wanted to let you know that none of the changes you made were correct. Kafziel Talk 18:43, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Ah sorry about that, it's just me being stupid... :) --Majorly 18:47, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Ha ha ha, I see. Good to know it was just confusion. Thanks for the reverted revert. :) Kafziel Talk 19:01, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My RFA

- Hello Majorly! I want to thank you for taking time to comment in my recent request for adminship. Though it didn't succeed, I value everyone's opinion, and hope to use the descriptions of the neutral and oppose votes to improve. TeckWizTalkContribs@ 22:23, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bad Budgiekiller

Hey, I noticed that you corrected my poor edit here, to correct your user name. Apologies for that! Cheers... Budgiekiller 22:34, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
