Thank you! Jaxl 6 July 2005 13:57 (UTC)
[edit] VfD:List of Navigational...yadda yadda
Thanks for casting a Delete vote. That article is useless. Redwolf24 04:42, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
No problem. I couldn't have agreed with you more on that. Jaxl 15:56, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Vandalism
I've blocked the vandal as per request. FearÉIREANN\(caint) 23:10, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
- (I responded on your talk page). Jaxl 23:15, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
I'm not an admin. You can report him at Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress, and an admin will probably block him for you. But he's already been blocked, I see. ‡ Jarlaxle 00:02, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] My RfA
Thanks Jaxl for the Support vote. I'll steer the AdminShip well :) Redwolf24 20:15, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
- Glad to support you. I know you'll do well. Jaxl 20:17, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] The Offspring's EP Baghdad
Hello, Jaxl. When you add an infobox to The Offspring's EP Baghdad, which is recently in the "Needs infobox" section from Template:Album, here are the album cover sources: [1] and [2]. It is a hard to find release, though. -- Mike Garcia | talk 22:21, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
- (I responded on your talk page). Jaxl 22:27, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
- Yeah, I got your answer. Maybe I'll complete the personnel section of the EP, in-case you don't know anything about it. -- Mike Garcia | talk 22:31, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] SF team talk page
Could you reply to my proposal on the Star Fox team talk page? Thanks. Thunderbrand 17:22, July 28, 2005 (UTC)
- Done. Jaxl 17:33, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks!
Thank you for the support in my RfA! Thunderbrand 15:21, July 31, 2005 (UTC)
- Sure thing. You're more than qualified for the job. :) Jaxl 15:28, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Exterminate!???
Thanks for exterminating vandalism on my user page! --Cool Cat My Talk 01:57, 2 August 2005 (UTC)

- No problem. :) Jaxl 02:03, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] SF series talk page
Heh, I have another proposal for ya! Well, your the only other person who helps out at the Star Fox articles who is pretty active. Anyway, please see the Talk:Star Fox series page for my proposal. By the way, I probably won't be able to see the response until late tonight cause I will be busy, so don't bother waiting if you intended to do that. Also, thanks for filling out the "weapons" section of Star Fox: Assault page that I couldn't find info for! Thunderbrand 18:10, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] SF Adv.
Luckily I have some time to check Wikipedia. So yeah, it really needs overhauled. A couple months ago I was looking at it and it was a little too detailed, like you said about it as a walkthrough. So whenever you want, go ahead and fix it up! Thunderbrand 19:45, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks a lot. I'll get to it as soon as I can. Jaxl | talk 19:47, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- It looks and sounds 100% better now. Good work! Thunderbrand 20:43, August 4, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Vandal whacking stick
(Moved award to user page). --Jaxl
Ok. Are you an admin? Howabout1 Talk to me! 02:37, August 6, 2005 (UTC)
Ok. Happy editing. I was looking for an admin to ask a question of, but I found another. Howabout1 Talk to me! 02:41, August 6, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks
Thank you for the recognition, it's very much appreciated. I see you beat me to the revert yourself a few times :) Nufy8 23:19, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Much apreciation
I would like to thank you personally for removing the vandalism on my user page. It is good to know that there are people on Wikipedia that you can depend on to remove vandalism for no reason. You are truly a capital member of the Wikipedia public! I salute you! Joizashmo 04:18, August 9, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Ruffian
A litte while ago an article was created called Ruffian (Star Fox). I don't see a reason to have this article, so I was thinking of VfD'ing it or maybe redirecting it to List of minor characters in the Star Fox series. What do you think? Thunderbrand 04:03, August 10, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Le barnstar!
(Moved award to user page). --Jaxl
This is the first barnstar I ever awarded someone. You deserve it! --Award from Thunderbrand.
[edit] Rent-a-Husband
I saw your vote on Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/Rent-a-Husband and agree it looked bad, but Rent-a-Husband is a real movie that stars Brooke Shields, Maria Grazia Cucinotta and Chevy Chase. I rewrote the article into a stub, so you might want to take another look. DS1953 02:13, August 12, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] A Request
Hello, Jaxl. I was wondering if you could look at my user page. I'm not certain if I should add my dislike of Southerns and my religious and political affiliations. I also complain about mom branding me a slut. Another teen Wikipedian responded but I'd like a second opinion. If you like, feel free to add pictures of cats and/or Dustin Hoffman or the record holder picture on the article for the song Mrs. Robinson. I'll be busy over the weekend, so I'll see your reply on Monday. Thank you and good-bye.--HistoricalPisces 17:23, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Template:Album
You found the length of the Kinks album... where? that kind of thing isn't on AMG. gren グレン 05:34, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Francis B. Sayre
Francis B. Sayre wasn't an "academic." He was a professional diplomat. You might consider changing the "stub" classification you assigned to him to reflect that. User:Cuppysfriend 15 AUG 2005
- Okay, here's kind of a "never mind:" FBS did teach at Harvard Law School and at Williams College and served as assistant to the president of Williams during his early career. I guess that makes him technically an academic, but the classification is still slightly off the mark in my opinion. I think "bio-stub" is better, but I'm sorry I jumped the gun in making my comment. User:Cuppysfriend 15 AUG 2005, a few minutes later.
- The real solution to the problem is for someone (probably me) to expand the FBS article. He was an important person in his own right and not just because he married President Woodrow Wilson's daughter. I have several Wiki projects going right now, but maybe I can get to FBS in due course. User:Cuppysfriend 16 AUG 2005
- Yes, Sayre was definitely a native-born American. He was born in South Bethlehem, PA.

[edit] In case you're wondering...
...why you don't have to revert Xbox 360 every other minute anymore, I blocked the IP for 24 hours. Nice work on RC patrolling, btw, hope to see you apply for adminship once you got three months here (you might stand a chance even now, but three months is the safer option). -- grm_wnr Esc 20:04, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Puppetry
Jaxl, I just gave User:209.150.74.25 a 'sock' on their User page, after it changed my vote on Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Parker Law Firm for a second time to which it provocatively added "(wanna shoot for #3 there puppet man?)". I hope this is not out of order. Alf 02:21, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
- I just glanced at the VFD (ugh, what a mess). Doesn't seem to be out of order, if that guy keeps messing with your vote. Jaxl | talk 02:27, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

- Thanks, I just had a 'moment' and afterwards thought I might have overstepped the line, no worries. Alf 02:32, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] RFA Thanks
Thanks for supporting my adminship. :) Coffee 08:55, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Population cycle
I have rewritten the population cycle article. I would be grateful if you could take a look at it. Capitalistroadster 11:20, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Scimitar's RfA
Thanks for supporting my adminship request. If you have any concerns/questions over my edits, or just feel like ranting at me because I've done something particularly silly, make sure you let me know! All the best.--Scimitar parley 14:49, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Esperanza
Hello, I'm trying to show some people off my friends list a new society, somewhat similar to WP:KC, Esperanza. Its still in its early stages but nonetheless I'd appreciate it were you to join. Redwolf24 (talk) 06:25, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you...
...for reverting the minor vandalism to my User page. I appreciate the help. --Calton | Talk 01:08, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Double Vote
Yes, it was !!! Im so sorry. I did not realize that I had done that. The thing is, I changed my signature, so when I was browsing the votes, I did not recognise it in its 'common' state, so I voted again. My deepest apologies.
[edit] Long Island Wikipedians
Whatsup? I noticed you're one of the few LIers on WP, if you ever want to hang out, let me know. I've never actually met another Wikipedian...I live in Floral Park...if you want to meet up sometime let me know. Paul 19:53, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks, I appreciate the offer. I have to say, though, I'll probably be really busy for the next few months (I have to start taking SAT prep stuff, work as a student advisor, etc.), so it's most likely that I won't have much free time, but who knows, maybe I'll run into you someday! Jaxl | talk 03:28, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] RfA
I was surprised when I learned Rx StrangeLove was not an admin, and then I realized you aren't one either. As I told him, the rollback button, along with the blocking feature, would greatly aid in the already fine job you do on RC patrol. The only problem I see is that you're fairly new to Wikipedia, as there are many RfA voters who have a strict limit of 3 months in order to support. I'd be more than happy to nominate you once you've reached 3 months, unless you feel like risking it now. Either way, get back to me and tell me what you think. Nufy8 05:31, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

- Just be sure to remind me, as I am forgetful :). Nufy8 15:07, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] How do you make sandwiches without bread?
For any confused onlookers: I had accidentally speedy tagged an article aboout making sandwiches without bread after it had been deleted, therefore creating it again. I am now kicking myself over it. -- Jaxl
Why not add a paragraph on the sandwich article and describe this? Sounds pleasant, quiet, and symmetrical. paul klenk 01:33, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
- Shucks, I have all of this baloney and nothing in the breadbox. paul klenk
