[edit] March 08, 2007: Help Me
initially signed up under the username:egalite.
i've been associated with the egalite as a username (not wiki) and as an email address since '97.
the password is not working and there is no email address associated with the username:egalite.
you'll see the IP addresses for username:paradoxos and username:egalite for an MTA dial-up server.
additionally, i added some information that is particular to alaska, but was deleted.
egalite would be my preferred username if i could get it back.
there really is a lot of information to go through before i am ready to make contributions.
i'll try to be thoughtful, courteous, respectful and smart.
though, i am merely human and i am merely male.
thank you for allowing me the opportunity to collaborate.

I am not here to riddle, joke, or play. I am here to do the best I possibly can. Wikipedia is a collaboration of the most important kind. Let me reiterate, Wikipedia is serious and Wikipedia is no joke. Respect my only good intentions. This is the first revert, and I will use all three. Paradoxos 07:54, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
- If you can't remember the password, and you have no e-mail, there is no way of recovering the password (short of the developers fixing it, but they refused to do that). Sorry. John Reaves (talk) 08:00, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, if you want the name Egalite, you could request a usurpation at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations. John Reaves (talk) 08:03, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for a most appropriate response. Paradoxos 08:07, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
as long as the cherished username:egalite is safe on Wikipedia, i am in no rush. again, thank you. Paradoxos 08:13, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
- Well, actually, anyone that wants it can request it. John Reaves (talk) 08:16, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] An Automated Message from HagermanBot
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button

- I don't need another mother. Mistakes are made, spelling, grammar, citations, or forgetting to sign posts on talk pages. Now, get over it MOM.

I am by no means an expert in anything copyright but I'll see what I can do to help. Mykll42 17:56, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
There are a few pages on copyright violation, like WP:COPYVIO. Is the infringing material an article, part of an article, or an image/other media? --Transfinite (Talk / Contribs) 20:15, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Comment on Talk:Soylent Green
FYI, five tildes will put only the date/time, three will put only your username, and four will put both. From your comment "(Apparently, somebody hates me)", it's not clear if you were already aware of this. If you are, then w/e. Cheers, RealGrouchy 02:52, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Requests for page protection
Paradoxos, the proper venue for page protection is WP:RFPP. Regards, Iamunknown 03:08, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
