[edit] The President (novel)

Hi Carre! I was wondering if I could impose on you as an MoS guru. A few of us have been helping some student editors in their class effort to get a bucketful of articles up to FA (or as close as possible), and the above article is now pretty close. Is there any chance you could cast your eye over it for MoS compliance? I don't imagine there's much to find, given that it's been copyedited by Awadewit and Mike Christie, but a fresh pair of eyes would be great if you don't mind. All the best, EyeSerenetalk 08:07, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Carre, I noticed you'd looked it over. Much appreciated! EyeSerenetalk 09:28, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Battle of the Gebora

Although aware of this plan when he took command, Mendizabal chose to ignore the instructions upon arriving on the north bank of the Guadiana on 5 February. Can you tell me why Mendizabal did this?--82.140.57.254 (talk) 15:55, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: AWB accessdate changes

I try to correct all I can relating to the accessdate tag in one go - do you have examples of things I've missed. Thanks Rjwilmsi (talk) 06:45, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Shwmai!

Just dropping by to see how you are ;) EyeSerenetalk 08:19, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm glad to hear everything's OK. We've lost some good editors recently (hopefully not permanently), and things were starting to look a bit grim ;) You've got the right attitude though - when a hobby starts to feel like work, it's time to do something else! I'm fine too, though mildly burned out after the WP:MMM and WP:FAT stuff.
When you return, if you feel like something new, think you could help out, and have the time, I'd like to invite you on to the FA-Team. I did originally suggest your name to Mike Christie but then withdrew it as I wasn't sure if you were still here. See what you think anyway...
Regards, EyeSerenetalk 14:51, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
PS 'Shwmai!' (roughly pronounced "shoe-my") is the Welsh equivalent of 'Alright mate!' It's one of the first phrases I picked up when we moved down here ;)
Lol - it was a surprise to me too! Thanks Carre, and I'm glad to see you on the case at Albuera! EyeSerenetalk 10:48, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
