[edit] Hi

I saw your one of your reports on WP:AIV... if you need protection for a page, it's better to ask here. Cheers! east.718 at 15:34, September 27, 2007

[edit] LH

Ah, OK. It was the 'presumably' that worried me! I've got the end of the prog on DVD, so I may get round to watching it this week. Cheers. 4u1e 19:10, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mistaken block

Hi Kelpin, I was informed of your post on ANI by another user, and I'd like to say that I'm perfectly willing to make a 1-second block of your account so that the block log will say that I made a mistake in blocking you way back when. I don't want to do it without your explicit permission, though, because I would rather not put anything on your block log unless you've said it's ok.

I'm sorry to hear that other editors have been using this block against you. So let me make it clear, both to you and to anyone else who reads this message: there is no evidence that you are a sockpuppet, and I made a mistake in blocking you. I'm very sorry for any problems it's caused you while editing Wikipedia. --Akhilleus (talk) 05:23, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi Kelpin, I did a 1-second block to indicate that I made a mistake in blocking you before. If anyone continues to hassle you about this, let me know, and I'll talk to them directly. --Akhilleus (talk) 16:07, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Near earth asteroid

No, the data is right - objects smaller than about 50 meters across explode in the upper atmosphere, often undetected - see Eastern Mediterranean Event for the most recent example I'm aware of. Cheers, WilyD 19:47, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Driver templates

Seem to have fixed it - I just went to template:F1 driver and cut the relevant line from the example given there. The only slight glitch was the the | character, which divides lines in the template, was at the other end of the line in the example than in Davidson's page. Not a major problem, but perhaps that was causing the problem (i.e. not having a | between the car number line and the next one?) Happy New Year! 4u1e (talk) 08:14, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Kelpin!

Thou hadst returned! Good to hear from you again buddy and thanks :-) - I hope your health problems have gotten better and I hope you're well, friend. Take care of yourself and happy editing! Scarian^{Call me Pat} 09:33, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
