[edit] Moving

I just moved my userpage to User:Siguy, but I don't know if I was allowed to do that. Is it possible for my username to be changed? TheOtherSiguy 01:53, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] proper use of speedy tags

You seem to have placed a speedy A7 tag -- db-spam (no assertion ofsignificance") on ""Mr Justice Goldring", who is asserted to be (and is) a member of the British House of Lords and a Commissioner of the Judicial Appointments Commission (If you're an American, this approx. equal to Justice of the Court of Appeals)). Perhaps your hand slipped. it did warrant a speedy,but as an almost empty duplicate of the real page at John Goldring DGG 23:24, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ugly images

Hi, I noticed you commenting on a few article pages where User:Acom has contributed images. I was wondering if you might like to examine all his image contributions as about half are similar in nature to that presented in Polar-ring galaxy. 132.205.44.134 23:25, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] YOO Towers image

Thanks for commenting on the image at FPC. Please elaborate on how you think the image should be fixed. I don't especially understand the comment 'crooked'. Thanks, Ynhockey (Talk) 22:15, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Well done...

Hi Siguy,
Gee you must be exceptionally talented if you're doing stuff like [1] etc whilst still in Primary school! I don't want to be rude or anything, but is that a result of your Asperger's? Just curious, --Fir0002 10:50, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Well, actually, I'm in middle school now. Heh, havn't updated my wikipedia profile in a while. I havn't updated that website, either. I'm trying to get a hold of a better domain name. TheOtherSiguy 15:20, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
OK fair enough :) --Fir0002 06:46, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Street Children article

Greetings, I have been trying to contact anyone interested in this article with regard to a better version. I've not had much success so far and hope you will reply. almudo (talk) 12:00, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

I reverted your edit because you rewrote the lead section in a type of point-of-view essay, not suitable for a NPOV encyclopedia. You should not replace a large section of an article. If you want to rewrite the article, you should rewrite the article as a sub-page of your user page and then have it peer reviewed, or discussed on the talk page of the article. Sorry.
