Hey, I wanted to thank you for flagging the "Motley Moose" article for rescue. I hate to canvass, but I'm still fighting the article's deletion, and have made a variety of points that are being largely ignored by a few headsrong editors. If you still think the article's worth saving, and could saunter over to Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2009_February_28, I would appreciate it. If nothing else, I could use another eye on seeing if my own arguements are cogent for my work in the future as a member of the Article Rescue Squad. Cheers, mate!

Hey AN. I saw you made some changes to refs on pages I was watching. I was always taught ( and it seems that wiki agrees) that refs go outside of punctuation. It does say that they can be placed mid sentence but that if it's next to punctuation, it should be outside. Thanks for your time thought. From the looks of your userpage, I think we share a lot of the same opinions about wiki. It also looks like you're an asset to the wiki community. Keep it up.

They were very rude and aggressively, and if you meant to intimidate me you have failed, miserably. I have review the links provided and remain uninspired. The article is worthless in my honest opinion and in its current state and with the references available and what turns up in searches it will undeniably be deleted, that is all.

Hey iam aware of the upcoming movie but iam not sure why the fiction war is allowed in wikipedia. There is so much of articles in Robotech which does not have sources and the whole is messed up. So far no one is doing anything to improve those articles. Iam not sure if i have the time to rewrite the whole article. Hopefully someone who has time can do that. All iam doing is cutting down the articles and they can concentrate on main articles and characters. Btw don't you think that this sort of article should be added in Wikia and other places?. This sort of articles won't disappear. -- SkyWalker ( talk) 04:05, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

You may regret it. I was just posting this when you were posting your welcome. Know any fair top people we can write to? Best wishes! SoCoColl ( talk) 19:59, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
I see you're interested in RFA. If you like, let me know when you think you're ready, and I'll look through your contribs. If I like what I see, I'd be willing to give you a nom or co-nom, if you think that would help. - Dan Dank55 ( push to talk) 17:02, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Just so you know, you can link Wikia wikis using [[wikia:NAME:article]], where NAME is Anime, or Annex, or etc. Your links on your subpage aren't working because they have spaces in. Stifle ( talk) 22:01, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
You and editor:stifle mention "snow keep" at Template/Rescue. Does that have to do with WP:Snow?-- Buster7 ( talk) 00:36, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
Hello, I have read some of your comments on the GNG RFC, and I feel that I am a kindred spirit to your opposition to this "guideline." Although some have posted that articles are not deleted under the aegis of this "guideline," I have seen where they have been. I would oppose deleting it from the website as I am opposed to all censorship, but I would like it relegated to a style guideline that is characterized as the view of some editors.-- Drboisclair ( talk) 17:22, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
We have never spoken before, but I wanted to take a moment to say that I have seen your positive contributions to Wikipedia -- both in your personal messaging and in the well-considered statements you have posted in various discussions. I just wanted to take a moment to say "Thank you!" You are wonderful editor and a wonderful person. Pastor Theo ( talk) 13:17, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
Hello A Nobody, your ER has been open past the 30 day time limit, and has gained many reviews (the most currently at ER). Are you satisfied with those reviews? If so, I will have to archive your review nomination, if you are not let me know to give it some extra time.-- ₮RU CӨ 20:47, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
The page you mentioned has been moved to a new title without redirect and then deleted. Stifle ( talk) 14:49, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi there. Thanks for taking part in my editor review! I have replied to some of the questions you have raised. If you want to talk further about it, please feel free, otherwise, thanks again! -- Ged UK 21:07, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
I would also like to thank you for commenting at my Editor Review. I appreciate you taking time out of your day to review my contributions and give honest feedback. Firestorm Talk 01:17, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
Since you are a polite and thoughtful person, I welcome talk pages comments from you. But please do not continue to edit my userpages. Normally I welcome drama of this sort, but I today was looking for that section and it was missing.
Thanks in advance. I am presuming Ikip will understand this applies to him as well. / edg ☺ ☭ 15:43, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
Please do not keep information used to mock or disparage your colleagues in your userspace. Doing so is unconstructive and not conducive to a collegial editing environment. Keeping sections of pages to mock other editors is unacceptable per Wikipedia:User page ("What may I not have on my user page?...Material that can be viewed as attacking other editors, including the recording of perceived flaws" and "If the community lets you know that they would rather you delete some content from your user space, you should consider doing so — such content is only permitted with the consent of the community.") I shouldn't have to request an admin delete it or nominate it for deletion. For the same reason why I do not keep information used negatively against eidtors with whom I disagree in my userspace, I expect the same from you. Moreover, I have asked editors not to refer to my old username due to real world concerns, which DGG and Randomran can confirm really have happened. Sincerely, -- A Nobody My talk 17:00, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
As a note, I've protected that page for 12 hours. If you want to MfD it, talk to any active admin and they can remove the protection to send it to MfD. Otherwise, please just talk out your changes. Edgarde, I'd really prefer that you just remove the name and {{ NOINDEX}} the page. That seems to be the lowest impact solution. Protonk ( talk) 18:27, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for commenting on my editor review. :) At one stage a thought about starting a new account, but I thought, well I've made these mistakes so I'll try and repair them. Aaroncrick (Tassie Boy talk) 10:08, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
Sweeping deceptive behaviour under the rug and then closing the review once the comments began to tend negative is not the kind of behaviour that inspires belief in your good intentions. "Ignoring" another editor's edits and believing them to be not worthy of notice in your edit summaries is not good behaviour.— Kww( talk) 18:13, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
