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)
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)
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)
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)
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.

Even more interesting, [1]. Yay 35 edits! Nishkid64 22:05, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
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)
Your input is requested
Your input would be appreciated at this Request for Comments. Kelly Martin (talk) 15:33, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

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)

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)
- Thanks, and thanks for the nom! Cbrown1023 00:52, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
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)

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)
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) |
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)
Thanks for the welcoming!

Persian Gulf
Hello This article you have protected has been protected since November 18 and the discussions have stopped at November 22 it has been protected for a while. If you took off the protect i think it would be appropriate. Nareklm 06:59, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
Re: WP:RFPP
I got a little confused with this edit of yours. Was it moved from elsewhere? --Majorly (Talk) 23:11, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
- If you mean IGN then yes, I moved the request from WP:AIV, where the original poster had mistakenly flagged it. I have an abominably slow connection tonight - it is taking about a minute for each edit to get through. The post was deleted from AIV by the time I managed to return there. Regards, (aeropagitica) 23:57, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
RfA thanks
 |
Thank you for participating in my RfA. I decided to end it; more time is needed, and I probably need a bit more experience. From here, I think I'll look at community discussion, AfD and the like. I will try to improve in the areas of concern, and thanks to everyone who supplied feedback. -- Selmo (talk) 06:17, 17 December 2006 (UTC) |
WP:UW
Hi,
You have put yourself as interested in helping out atWikiProject on user warnings. We are now at a stage where we are creating the new templates and are wondering if you are still interested? If so please visit the overview page and choose a warning type you wish to work on. There is a base template available here, which you can copy and use to get you started. Have a look through the redirects and see what old templates are affected and incorporate them into the the new system. Anyway, any questions please don't hesitate to give me a shout. Regards Khukri (talk . contribs) 08:51, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
Come on guys...
It is important to keep a cool head, especially when responding to comments against you or your edits. Personal attacks and disruptive comments only escalate a situation; please keep calm and remember that preventive administrative action can be taken against other parties if necessary. Attacking another user back can only satisfy trolls or anger contributors and leads to general bad feeling. Please try to remain civil with your comments. Thanks! — FireFox (talk) 22:28, 17 December 2006
RfA thanks!
 |
Thank you so much, Majorly, for your gracious support in my RfA (48/1/0)! I am very happy that you trust me with this great honor and privilege. If at any time you think that I need to step back and take a deep breath or just want to talk, please contact me. Happy editing! Cbrown1023 03:27, 18 December 2006 (UTC) |  |
50 Cent aka a Snitch
I was looking at the history of 50 Cent when I saw a vandal moved the page to 50 Cent aka a Snitch a few days ago and you reverted back. Next time please delete the vandal move redirect and block him indef. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup 21:28, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- Whoops, guess I forgot to do that :) Thanks for reminding me! --Majorly (Talk) 17:42, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Action Zone Wrestling
Majorly, as the AfD for this was started by a sock of a banned user, can you please revert the deletion? I was in the process of contacting the fed for sources when the deletion occurred and then I was forced to take a break from here because of the sock's behaviour. The fed is definitely worth an entry on WP and I claim any noted rules such as notability and verifiability to be over ruled by WP:IAR in this case. I am still waiting for a reply to an email I sent to the fed in question, and I am about to go into their forum to seek some sources. But I need the article back as a reference. Curse of Fenric 21:03, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
- Majorly is currently on wikibreak and may not reply for some time. If you want an article undeleted or you think that the process of deletion went incorrectly, you could try asking on deletion review. Tra (Talk) 23:22, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks, Tra - I'll try that. Curse of Fenric 08:55, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Action Zone Wrestling on deletion review
An editor has asked for a deletion review of Action Zone Wrestling. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Curse of Fenric 09:12, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Victor Celorio delete?
I think you mis-read the discussion. Several votes changed from delete to keep after the requested evidence of notability was added to the article. What's the point of asking for it if it's not going to be recognized? Dicklyon 21:58, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
- It seemed the consensus was to delete. If you want, you can take it to deletion review. Thanks. --Majorly (Talk) 22:03, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
OK, thanks. Done. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dicklyon (talk • contribs).

(Im big on TV shows, mainly Lost and Big Brother). Thanks again! --Lewisjg 00:38, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Palestinian exodus
The Palestinian exodus article, which seems to have been locked by you, has been locked for over a month. Is there any intention of unlocking it so it can be edited once again? Thanks, --Doron 01:45, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
Are you a part-time female?
Are there two Alex9891 users in England? This one looks a bit like you. She's your age. But she's hundreds of miles from you. Strange coincidence. -- Daniel Brandt 66.142.91.225 02:35, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
- Looks nothing like me actually. I've actually come across her before. Thanks for informing me of your "search" though, sir. --Majorly (Talk) 09:26, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

My Request for Adminship
Thanks for your support on my successful Request for Adminship (final result 78 Support /0 Oppose / 1 Neutral) I have now been entrusted with the mop, bucket and keys. I will be slowly acclimating myself to my new tools over the next months. I am humbled by your kind support and would certainly welcome any feedback on my actions. Please do not hesitate to contact me. Once again, many thanks and happy new year! All the best, Asteriontalk 16:07, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
Good Faith?
You reverted a good faith edit from the Paris Hilton page? It looked like major vandalism to me. Lots of text had been removed. The User who vandalized the page has vandalized it before. I would have removed the vandalism myself, but I don't know how to revert pages yet. Acalamari 18:48, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
- Text was certainly moved about, and the image was changed but I don't think it was vandalism. By the way, check WP:RV for how to revert. Thanks. --Majorly (Talk) 19:00, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks; reverting pages was simpler than I thought, but that doesn't mean to say I'm about to start reverting pages whenever I like. Acalamari 19:25, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
Well done
Good move re Brandt, SqueakBox 19:27, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
- About brandt, I made a comment just as you closed the AFD. I felt It should have been included anyway even after the afd was closed, if nothing else but to say my piece. I felt since I had started replying before the close, I should be able to have at least added what I wrote. Thanks --Brian(view my history)/(How am I doing?) 20:00, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
T:DYK/N
Hey, can you add the credit lines of the two noms you moved to the next update page? I think I might do the update shortly if you don't but am not sure who to credit. thanks! (you can reply here) ++Lar: t/c 21:11, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
Disagreements
Good morning (GMT time); as you may remember we had a little disagreement on my talk page a while ago and I was just letting you know that I take away no hard feelings from it at all.
In fact, I respect you in being so up-front about my incompetence in leaving my Wikipedia account open while a trouble-maker was about! User:Daveydweeb suggests I invest in a Whacking stick :) So in summary - I bear no resentment towards you, and cheers for correcting my mistake with your strict but civil words.
I hope you bear no ill-feelings towards me in return.
Cheers and regards,
Anthonycfc (talk • email • tools) 10:57, Friday December 29, 2006 (UTC)
WikiProject BBC Sitcoms
Recently, you said you would be interested in joining a WikiProject on BBC Sitcoms. This project is now active and if you would like to help with it please express your interest on the project talk page, if not please remove your name from the list of participants section on the project main page. I have thought that every month or so we should concentrate on one project, I have yet to think of one for January. If you are interested please leave an idea for what sitcom would be best, on the project talk page. Thankyou Mollsmolyneux 16:19, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
