[edit] Happy 4th of July!

Dear Sharon,
I wish you the best 4th of July you have ever had,
and that you enjoy living in your country
as much as I love living in mine.   —  $PЯINGrαgђ 

D'oh! I never realised that both versions of this are a bit messed up! (The first one is the one I give to people who live in the US.) —  $PЯINGrαgђ  17:29, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Map of Egypt restored

11-July-2007: The ID "User:Lanternix" (notified) was logged as overwriting an unsourced map image onto a map of Egypt developed by the American CIA, on 19-May-2007 at 1:09 a.m, which has been restored (after 52 days). Map image: Image:Egypt-region-map-cities.gif (view older versions to compare). -Wikid77 06:54, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unusual Adoption Request

Hi! Im an English teacher in Toluca Mexico (west of Mexico City). My Advanced B classes will be contributing to Wikipedia as the focus of their English course for Fall 2007. I am looking for people who would like to mentor my students (who will be working in groups) as they do the following assignments: Edit and article (adding a citation), writing a stub with a citation, translating an English language article for Spanish Wikipedia and for the final project, writing a full article for English Wiki (they can expand on the stub mentioned previously). What I would like to do is put a list of "mentors/adopters" on my talk page as a kind of short cut for my students, who have limited time to get things done. The semester begings Aug 6, but the real Wikipedia work wont begin until the beginning of Sept. If you would like to add your name to my list, please go to my talk page and add it there, perhaps with a short introduction, if you like.

Thank you!

[edit] Surprise!

Jim Carrey has visited you! Jim "somehow" promotes WikiLove and wants you to be happy today, and hopefully he has managed to make your day better. Spread the WikiLove by giving something friendly to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Come on now, go and make someone happy today, or Jim will hug you till you choke, dear Ayelie! :) Happy editing! - Phaedriel - 11:56, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Giving the day to her a day was my idea first (but on her birthday was actually hers, but Cliff should really get most if not all of the credit by finding the poem and image (which, more than coiincidentally, you gave to him). Will (talk) 20:35, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you! :)

Thank you for your beautiful words and warm wishes on my birthday, dear friend! I took a well-deserved one-day wikibreak and spent it with my family and my friends... and actually had a beer after months of forced abstinence! :) Of course, there's no way I'd forget about you, so I saved a great, tasty piece of chocolate cake just for you - but sorry, no beer left! Again, thank you so much for taking the time to wish me well, and have a wonderful day, dear Ayelie! Love, Phaedriel - 08:57, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Sweet Ayelie, thank you so much for coming out of your semi-retirement just to wish this new friend of yours (who surely is much older than you! ;) a happy birthday - and in a very real sense, for sharing that wonderful painting with me! :) Although we talk much less than I'd wish, just knowing you're out there is like watching a shiny, beautiful star in a dark sky. Shine on, always, my dear A! xxx, Sharon
