I am a relapsed wikiaddict, please don't bother posting the Welcome to Wikipedia! message here.

And here I was...excited to give you one of those...in that case, may I ask what your interests are instead? :-) --HappyCamper 14:19, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Well, I guess so. I like to help people out. You might have some fun here: Wikipedia:Sandbox/Word Association. I bet you haven't seen that before. --HappyCamper 14:25, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

A new member? Hmm...well, hard to say. I'd say, maybe one every 15 seconds? Check out Special:Log/newusers if you're interested. --HappyCamper 17:26, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] MK Dons

Firstly, apologies for the extremely late reply. Been offline for a long time.

The Dons have just as much of a right to exist as, say, FC United.

If they'd set up as a new club and were working their way up the leagues, I'd agree completely, but they didn't. They bought an existing club, moved it and renamed it without giving a thought to its supporters. How is fair that Wimbledon fans had to start from scratch while MKD got their league position. It really should have been the other way round, then no-one would have had a problem with it.

Kicking the Dons around is totally against the spirit of football. I am not suggesting that franchising is a good thing for football, but surely being mean to someone just because you don't like some part of his or her history is spiteful.

Which individual(s) have I been mean to? All I said was that I was strongly opposed to the club. And kicking a team you don't like around is completely within the spirit of football, as I should know having been a Manchester United fan for over 20 years. I have to ask: if you were supporting MKD home and away for the next 10 years, spending a ridiculous amount on them out of loyalty, and the owners decided to move to Dublin as they felt a football league franchise would be a success over there (assuming for the sake of argument that the plane fare every fortnight would be too expensive), how would you feel? This is why so many football fans want MK Dons to fail - we'd hate to see it happen to our clubs. That said, your attendances are getting impressive, especially considering how the team are doing, so it looks like you'll be around for a while yet. Just wish you'd done things differently, that's all.

[edit] Call for consensus on fan site list on Andy Murray page

Hello El Jefe,

You've probably noticed my (probably foolhardy) attempt to resolve the edit war on the Andy Murray page regarding fansites. The protagonists do not look about to resolve it among themselves, so I'd appreciate it if you and other regular editors could express your views on this part of the page, so that we can stop the war going forward, or at least block a protagonist who persists in it. Please come to the talk page here

The questions I've put are:

Please can I have the opinions of those who regularly edit this site:

1.Should there be a list of fansites?

2.Should it be ordered

a) alphabetically

b) by site's popularity or quality

c) by some other factor

3. If by popularity/quality how to judge this?
