Don't worry, I didn't think it was personal or bad or anything. Are you planning to run the RfA gauntlet sometime soon? Deacon of Pndapetzim (Talk) 03:48, 16 March 2008 (UTC) I'd be happy to help you out or give you specific advice any time you need it. Regards, Deacon of Pndapetzim (Talk) 20:14, 16 March 2008 (UTC) Good Night - Good night, and I am sorry for what I said above. I was a little frustrated, and I felt like the hidden note in the article was immature. Cheers, Glacier Wolf 02:41, 17 March 2008 (UTC) Reply Yes, there are a number of User Warnings. To simplify this, some JS Tools are used. One of them is known as WP:TWINKLE. The one I use is called Huggle. Choose which one works best for you. :) Also, you can report users to Administrators Intervention against Vandalism if they are disruptive, and you warn them past the final warning (Level 4). For more information, please see WP:CVU or WP:CUV. Cheers, Glacier Wolf 03:01, 17 March 2008 (UTC) If you need Huggle, I can email the program to you. Just send me a message to glacierwolf3@gmail.com. Cheers, Glacier Wolf 03:08, 17 March 2008 (UTC) Y Done. When you save the program, you have to rename the file to huggle.zip, so that it will work correctly. OK? Cheers, Glacier Wolf 03:18, 17 March 2008 (UTC) Re:Personal Attack Because you don't retain material in either this page or an archive, it took a bit to review what happened. This edit by GlacierWolf was indeed highly in violation of WP:NPA and WP:CIV, but it's good to see he has apologized. I should add that such hidden text is generally not used, though as far as I'm aware there is no rule against it. I'll keep my eye of the Pythagoras page and monitor for issues of vandalism and if necessary protection.

No problem. They were working their way through multiple articles, vandalizing as they went, but looks like things are pretty well cleaned-up at this point. If you want, I could also semi-protect your userpage to prevent this kind of thing from happening again? That'll still let you and other good-faith contributors make any necessary tweaks, but will keep off the anons. --Elonka 16:09, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Done.  :) --Elonka 17:36, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Block

If they only come here to vandalise, then I think it needs to be "thank you and goodbye!" There was a bit too much knowledge of finding their way around for it to be a neophyte and purely genuine errors. If they think it too tough, they can request an unblocking. cheers. Kbthompson (talk) 18:07, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for reverting vandalism on my talk page and reporting the vandal. swaq 18:33, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

about 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup

1, so you were there, big deal, are you the ref or an official with any sort of authority? i dont think so. for the record i was watching it live on tv, so i obviously had a better view than you did. 2, the ref called it a save, i dont contest that the us won the cup or that the ref's ruling (or non-call) has legal power, but morally the us didnt win it fair and square 3, so leaving the story out altogether is "non-biased", i suppose? 4, dont slap a vandalism sticker on me jus coz you dont like what i said. i just want to argue for my case, that ppl should know the whole story, be it un-american —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.226.239.106 (talk) 19:49, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

You're very welcome. :) --Candy156sweet (talk) 20:43, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

My rfa thanks

Oh snap, the DEA is an admin

I would like to thank you for your participation in my recent RfA, which I'm very glad to say was successful at 81/7/0. Some of the very best that Wikipedia has to offer came out to support or oppose me and the kind words from all the editors has really given me confidence to be an admin and I can't wait to start. I will take the advice of the opposes and not jump into any content disputes immediately. As well, I will try to add more content myself. Anyways, in thanks for participating in my RfA, here's your very own personal humanoid robot. Enjoy! --ÐeadΣyeДrrow (Talk - Contribs) 13:58, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

redirect on Yucca Mountain page

I was attempting to clear the redirect for capitalization -- for some reacon typing "yucca mountain" (all lower case) in the search window was redicting to an old version of the Yucca Mountain page which did not contain recent edits. Since you restored the redirect, it doesn't seem to do any redirecting at all, when "yucca mountain" is typed in the search window, the user just ends up sitting on the redirect page, going nowhere. Perhaps a server synchronization problem that is keeping the old version of the Yucca Mountain page cached somewhere? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.158.145.67 (talk) 19:08, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Wikiproject Freemasonry

Dear Twaz, Just to let you know, I have just listed myself on the Wikiproject of freemasonry. I have been a member since 93', in both York and Scottish Rite. And, very active in both bodies up until my ordination as a Hindu priest. I am a member of Sun set lodge in Santa Monica California. If I can help in any way with the project...please let me know.Govinda Ramanuja dasa USA (talk) 06:19, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Thank You

wikiproject Freemasonry

Just to let you know, I have just listed myself on the Wikiproject of freemasonry. If you can please reply back. Thanks.Govinda Ramanuja dasa USA (talk) 06:58, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Are you in any way a professional editor...like I am? I'm a newspaper and magazine editor and the capitalizations are incorrect. Any editor will tell you the same. So, I'd appreciate you changing them back. Or, I can do it myself.

Thanks so much. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.161.135.117 (talk) 22:06, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Cranbrook/Canadian Rockies International Airport

Whoops, you reverted to a bad version. I typed in an extra 1 for the movements giving 112,818 which should have been 12,818. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather Have a gorilla 07:39, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Adoption & Wikiquette alerts

Hi. I'm sorry to have been such an inactive adopter recently. I offer as excuse the fact that an erstwhile adoptee has been dominating my on-Wiki time, and I've had real world concerns like sick kids. I see that you're currently the subject of a thread at Wikipedia:Wikiquette_alerts#User:Twaz. I wish that you had drawn it to my attention earlier so that I could try to help. I'll start digging into things when I have an hour to spare. Is there any specific issue that it would be most helpful for me to address first? Cheers, Bovlb (talk) 23:24, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

I've made a few comments. I suspect that you won't like everything I had to say, as I think you may have put a foot wrong here and there, but please bear with me.

By the way, you seem to be transcluding your archive page onto this talk page which makes for a rather odd effect at the right-hand side, and disrupts the use of section editing. It appears to be caused by this fragment "{{User talk:Twaz/Archives/Archive#1/", but I'm not sure what you intended here. Bovlb (talk) 07:21, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Your Signature

Hi there. Following my comment on Wikipedia:Wikiquette alerts I notice that your signature bears no resemblance to your name. While it's not required, WP:SIG does suggest that "it is common practice for a signature to resemble to some degree the username it represents" and it does make it easier to remember which user one is actually communicating with! If you would rather be known as InvisibleDiplomat, that username is available, and you could easily have your username changed to that. See Wikipedia:Changing username for more information. -- JediLofty ^{User ¦ Talk} 12:58, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
