[edit] Thank you

Thank you for the words of encouragement. Erechtheus (talk) 21:52, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for the gentlemanly/womanly manner in which you go about this web page and encourage quality in editing, e.g. The Snow Queen. I also liked your pointing out the article on cruft, which is something to be avoided and corrected.--Drboisclair (talk) 13:15, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you, and a clarification of intent

Thanks very much for your input re the discussion about WP:N as it relates to FOSS, and specifically NoteEdit. Just one clarification re your comment, "declining to improve an article on the grounds that it has inherent notability to a subset of Wikipedians isn't likely to help it, sorry." My apologies if that is how it came across, I decided not to work on the article itself because a) I'm not familiar enough with NoteEdit, and would certainly make mistakes, and more importantly b) I was hoping to encourage a wider discussion, and felt that an unchanged article would help focus attention on the process rather than on the individual quality of a single article. I hope that is a clearer explanation of my intent.

Best regards,

Aha! I'm sorry if I misinterpreted you. I sincerely hope NoteEdit is saved. Let me know if there's anything I can do. Aylad ['ɑɪlæd] 15:41, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Thought you might want to know Otto Soemarwoto is at DYK: could never have done it without your help! I'm an Editorofthewiki^{[citation needed]} 23:37, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

That's awesome, thanks for the heads up. I never would have done anything had you not started events in motion. Best, Aylad ['ɑɪlæd] 04:11, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
