I'm contacting three editors who have recently contributed to Paeonia (plant)
A contributor sent in two images for Commons. They are claimed to be Paeonia tomentosa, but I do not know the field well enough to know. I see that Paeonia tomentosa is a redlink, perhaps the existence of image will prompt someone to start the article.
I just looked at your list of spoof names. There are at present 54, which is truly impressive. No-one has ever tried to impersonate me. What am I doing wrong? Apart from fully protecting my userpage, of course.-- Anthony Bradbury "talk" 20:48, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello Acalamari, it's nice to meet you! :)
We are a metal magazine that regularly conducts interviews with many metal bands and reviews albums submitted by labels.
Without promoting our magazine, we have added information on some bands (As gathered form press releases or interviews) and links to the reviews of albums. We have not, and this is important, said anything that promotes our site, our magazine or our staff (we haven't even created a page for our magazine, as we don't deem it necessary) but only provide links to our magazine's reviews and interviews. It should be noted that Metal Blast is absolutely legitimate, as can be seen from both the interviews and the fact that the labels themselves send the pre-releases of the albums, demonstrating our objectivity and legitimacy.
Right now we are victims of some deletions and edits by another user, arguing that our account violates the conflicts of interests rules; a review of these rules, however, shows that this is not the case, as it complies with both http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:CONFLICT#Citing_yourself and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:SELFPUB#Self-published_and_questionable_sources_as_sources_on_themselves
I would really appreciate if you could clarify this point; we are very happy being able to contribute our little grain of sand to Wikipedia, and wish to continue to be able to do so.
Thank you for your help! :) MetalBlastZine ( talk) 00:17, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello Acalamari, Sorry to intrude on your time, but could I just ask for your opinion on the edit-warring which had recently happened on the above article? Way over a year ago editors (myself included) agreed that the result of this battle was best described as "Inconclusive - both sides claimed victory". This was also based on the fact that the US commander at the battle had also stated that the battle was a "draw". However over the past few days a contributor, without even a user page, is edit warring and insisting on the battle being described as: "US Victory". I have tried, via starting his Talk page, to explain that Wikipedia operates by consensus; but this seems to have no effect and he seems to be pushing his own POV via some questionable sources. Do you think there is reason for a block in this case? With best regards, David, David J Johnson ( talk) 12:57, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I am not a registered Wikipedia 'editor'. I have no wish (now) ever to become one. I understand that you among others are capable of revoking a Rollback Right. I candidly do not understand very much about Wikipedia. Bearing that in mind, I invite you to consider the dialogue I have recently had with WIDR who exercised his Rollback Right over my sincere attempt to slightly CORRECT two issues in the Arthur Hugh Clough ARTICLE. In my view WIDR has exercised his Rollback Right arbitrarily, and without regard for what I sincerely attempted from the outset to show was my rightful corrections. 1. an illiterate use of the non-word "need'st" in a quoted peom couplet by Clough. 2. a clafification that Clough was being Ironic, and to say his work was Satiric was too vague a characterisation. I understand that you may be the first English-speaker in the list. I understand that WIDR may be not a native-speaker of English. I have given up writing back to WIDR. I ask you to review her/his Rollback Right or his/her usage of that Right in this particular case. I understand that Widr has some accolades against Vandalism. I was not being a Vandal. I now doubt that Wird was the Article's AUTHOR. I believe he/she simply exercised a one-button arbitrary Rollback Right WITHOUT ANY REGARD FOR THE MERIT OF THE SUGGESTED CORRECTIONS. I should have preferred to tell Widr that I was asking for a review of her/his Rollback Right with a view to it being REVOKED, however I have signed off from his own Widr TALK Page irrevocably (with a parting jest [not a parthian shot] ). I believe that Widr needs a "Caution" at least on this seeming attempt at anti-Vandal Rollbacks. I am certain that the correct usage as used by Clough was "needst" - don't look in Wiki-anywhere to satisfy yourself. Can you correct the Article ?? : I shall not. Apart from sending you this, I shall never again touch another Wiki-anything page. Please see - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Widr Thank you JM 180.200.184.97 ( talk) 12:32, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
Thank you kindly, Acalamari. My LAST rhetorical question to you is HOW will the true "Author[s]" of the original Article ever know what I wrote absolutely pointlessly to Widr, since you appear to agree that Widr was Not the Owner/Author - just an unthinking button-pusher ... Yes, perhaps that IS rather Rude, but Wikipedia claims to encourage 'bold editing' and to give would-be-editors an assumption of Innocence and of Good-Faith; and yet MY attempt simply gets TRASHED by a one-button unthinking vandal-trawler, and MOREOVER my elaborative futher comments that were ASKED FOR by Widr are evidently UTTERLY IRRELEVANT TO Widr and so to Wikipedia Thanks again, Acalamari. Ave atque Vale JM 180.200.185.138 ( talk) 07:17, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
I am sorry but I simply do Not understand. What is presently recorded in the TALK pages might be useful to the 'real' Author[s]. There is still the one ERROR restored by Widr in the 'reverted' page. There is a 'too-prolix' mess of confusion which doesn't adequately differentiate between Satire and Irony; that is, in Clough's supposedly literary criticim / poetry analysis. The Article speculates idly about G. Robertson's (Q.C.) usage of the Clough couplet. These are extra aspects I canvassed with Widr, eveidently UTTERLY POINTLESSLY since all he/she can do is BOMB an attempted edit on a technicality, which I have as a novice contributor, ABSOLUTELY NO understanding about. If anything the "signature" which you have kindly led me to, appears to serve potentially as a footnote leading to my original TALK input. I simply do Not understand, and I have wasted my time, and yours. I regret that. I do not care tuppence what people might imagine, IF those people take no account of this simple fact: to me Widr is an anti-Vandal stormtrooper who disregards Wikipedia's own assertions about its respecting people's Good-Faith. I reiterate, I shall not touch another Wiki-anything anywhere. I appreciate that you have tried to help me, but I remain of the view that Widr is IN EFFECT a Vandal herself/himself. How very exquisitely IRONIC !!! JM 180.200.185.138 ( talk) 08:16, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
Hey Acalamari
I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).
So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.
What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.
The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.

Hello? Is this how you post a message to someone's talk page? :-) To my surprise, I received an email from you via Wikipedia, but I'm sorry, I have no idea what you're talking about. If I have a "talk page," it's news to me. I don't know what it's for, how to access it, how to use it or how to change it. Nor did I ever put "welcome" on it, because that would mean I'm aware I have such a page. If I created said talk page, it must have been inadvertent. I've certainly never used (nor was even aware I had it), and am not likely to ever use it.
Likewise, I have no idea what a "watchlist" is or what you mean by a "redlinked" page, or why I might have one.
I probably registered for Wikipedia two-and-a-half years ago in order to edit some horribly written page that was important to me for some reason (a topic I'm passionate about, etc), so I couldn't bear to see the poor or inaccurate writing... but TBH I rarely sign in to edit-- much too busy! (Not that I would ever want to lose the privilege.) I happened to edit a page today because it's a favorite topic of mine with current events that I've been following closely, and it needed updating and more accuracy. I thought I would just make a quick edit and addition or two, but you know how it is...once you get into it, you end up straightening out the whole thing! (There were several dead links.)
As it is, on another page, I just noticed a complaint about relying on primary sources too much along with a request for secondary or tertiary sources-- so, since I didn't know about that rule, no doubt some happy editor will be delighted to post the same complaint to the page I cleaned up today. (Which would make no sense to me...although I understand the prohibition on self-promotion, I'm a researcher as well as editor, so at all times, primary sources, not secondary or tertiary, are the best ones by far.)
BTW, it would be great if there were simple instructions somewhere for things like "How to post a message to someone else's talk page." After stumbling around for a while, I eventually found your talk page (I think?), but it took me more than an hour to figure out how to get into this message place-- the "Edit" tab is not intuitive because the last thing I'd want to do is edit this page; I only wanted to respond to the email from you and your text said I could post a message for you here. So I didn't want to click on the "Edit" tab in case I inadvertently changed something of yours w/o realizing it. A "Post a message" or "Talk to this User" tab would be nice. Nor did I find any helpful instructions about how to reply to an email/talk page message in any of the gazillion pages of info on talk pages, either--in fact, there were so many of them, it was incredibly confusing, and a real turn-off. You guys do this all the time? Wow, my hat's off to you. :-)
I'd like to stay a registered Wikipedia editor because I'm a good writer, editor, and fact-checker, and I enjoy the opportunity to fix an intolerable grammar mistake, correct a wrong fact, or overhaul a badly written or badly organized page now and then. But a talk page I do not need. If you're an administrator, would you be kind enough to delete my talk page for me? And if you know how I would delete my email address, which apparently is optional, I'd really appreciate it if you could let me know that, too. Thanks! Best wishes Lisa Spenser ( talk) 00:59, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
Hi Acalamari, thanks for your reply to the message above...it explained a lot. No wonder I was so confused! (I was a little worried there, wondering if I'd created a talk page saying 'Welcome' in my sleep or something.) Thank you for the info and links; I will look into it all and try to catch up as time allows. BTW, I understand what you mean by a redlinked page, but not a redlinked talk page. Are you saying that the opportunity for a talk page was auto-generated when I registered to become an editor, but then stayed redlinked because I never officially created the talk page myself? I see that you've been a Wikipedia editor and administrator for a long time, but if I may make a suggestion... I think it would be helpful (and a lot less confusing) if you were to tell folks straightaway in your initial note that you created the page on which you're messaging them! My guess is that if you have to create someone's talk page for him or her, then "Welcome to the Wikipedia editing community" would probably not be inappropriate regardless of how long the editor has been "on" (by which you apparently mean "registered as an editor"). The message that probably would have felt much clearer to me is something like, "Hi, Lisa Spenser, I'm Acalamari, a Wikipedia editing administrator, and I just wanted to introduce myself. Although you've been editing Wikipedia for a couple of years, I noticed that you didn't have a "user talk page" -- a handy feature allowing editors ("users") to communicate with each other -- so I've taken the liberty of creating your talk page for you. If I can ever answer any questions for you, please let me know... here's how you get to my talk page and leave me a message: (etc.). In the meantime, if you're not already familiar with these features, here are some links to user info that you may find useful. Regards (or whatever)...."
All that said, thanks again for clearing up the confusion and for the directions to the user features. Not only did I not know where to find those; I wasn't even aware that I would want to know about them. (The old "Not only do I not know the answers; I don't even know the questions I'm supposed to be asking" scenario.) I will try to become more familiar with user features and terms.

I have been using Twinkle for reverting vandalism, and I am interested in getting rollback permissions so that I can use Huggle. I have over 700 mainspace edits, and, while I'm not sure how to get an exact count, I'm sure I've made well over 100 pure vandalism reverts. I posted a request at Wikipedia:Requests_for_permissions/Rollback#User:Ahecht on June 28th, but that page is backlogged and my request has been sitting unreviewed for over a week. I'll admit that I choose to contact you only because you were listed first alphabetically at Category:Wikipedia administrators willing to grant rollback requests, but I was hoping you'd be able to review my request. Thanks in advance! -- Ahecht ( talk) 20:37, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
I don't usually post to my own talk page in this manner - especially not with something as trivial as this - but does my userpage look okay?

Hello Acalamari, Sorry to trouble you, but can I please ask for your advice/action on the above unregistered IP user? They have made several changes to the Zodiac Killer article by blanking the "unknown" sections of the info box and constantly inserting duplicate information on the Robert Graysmith article. Additionally, they have reverted all comments, by other editors, on their Talk page requesting they abide by Wikipedia conventions in their edits. Whilst I accept they can revert comments on their Talk page, it is all from editors trying to maintain Wikipedia standards. Of course, the last thing I want to do is to edit war, but these contributions without explanation are becoming tiresome. Best regard, David, David J Johnson ( talk) 22:17, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Hello Acalamari,
Its nice to see that an admin with workloads and busy real life takes time out to solve the problems of newcomers. I wanted to give you a barnstar for that but it would fall way short.
Now to a few problems,
There are a few album arts which violate the 300 pixel thumb rule of non-free fair use images. I uploaded low-resolution ones of them and asked the larger versions to be deleted in the teahouse. An Admin did delete one of them but two remained, I notified him after uploading the new ones but my reminder was to no avail. I waited for 3 weeks, so now I want you to please delete the earlier versions if you don't mind. My explanation is available at 23 Use of Cover art. Please a look at these I've added some more.

Hi Acalamari. I write you about User talk:SCHUYLER. This user creates several hoax about a venezuelan boy named Cesar David Yedra Garcia. This is a cross wiki problem. Cesar D. Garcia is a page deleted in Spanish, and Italian. This user uses some ip conexions to create articles like Cesar Yedra, deleted many times here, in spanish, italian, german, french, and other Wikimedia projects. If you search on the web, there is a biography in iMDB.com, and other websites like Wikia.com, and all these pages are Hoaxes created by the same user. If you need more information about this problem you can contact me at my spanish talk's user. Then, I suggest you to delete Cesar D. Garcia, and to ban this user, if local policies allow it.

Hi!
As you are the first admin enlisted in Category:Wikipedia administrators willing to grant rollback requests i am approaching you. I wish to remove my rollback rights. Thanks in advance. §§ Dharmadhyaksha§§ { T/ C} 04:48, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Would you be interested in commenting at my FAC for Aaliyah (album)? Any support or critical comments would be appreciated. If not, no need to reply. Dan56 ( talk) 04:01, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
I would like to request rollback on the English Wikipedia. This is my first request for any tools. I was randomly selected for reviewer based on my edit history. I hope I am suitable for such a request to deter the ever growing vandalism of the project. Thank you.-- Amadscientist ( talk) 03:21, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
Many thanks for blocking user Rapeisnotacrime who made edits on the Ted Bundy article. However, this person seems to have re-appeared under another objectional user name - Sensuallntracourse and re-inserting the same duplicate information. Can I please ask you to take another look and take appropiate action. With best regards, David J Johnson ( talk) 13:37, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

Hi there; a question. I do not see any wikipedia policy laid down on this question. If we have an editor who is blocked, requests an unblock, and is given the three standard questions, if he does not give an answer how long would you feel we should wait before declining as not answered?-- Anthony Bradbury "talk" 16:33, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

I'm contacting three editors who have recently contributed to Paeonia (plant)
A contributor sent in two images for Commons. They are claimed to be Paeonia tomentosa, but I do not know the field well enough to know. I see that Paeonia tomentosa is a redlink, perhaps the existence of image will prompt someone to start the article.
I just looked at your list of spoof names. There are at present 54, which is truly impressive. No-one has ever tried to impersonate me. What am I doing wrong? Apart from fully protecting my userpage, of course.-- Anthony Bradbury "talk" 20:48, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

Hello Acalamari, it's nice to meet you! :)
We are a metal magazine that regularly conducts interviews with many metal bands and reviews albums submitted by labels.
Without promoting our magazine, we have added information on some bands (As gathered form press releases or interviews) and links to the reviews of albums. We have not, and this is important, said anything that promotes our site, our magazine or our staff (we haven't even created a page for our magazine, as we don't deem it necessary) but only provide links to our magazine's reviews and interviews. It should be noted that Metal Blast is absolutely legitimate, as can be seen from both the interviews and the fact that the labels themselves send the pre-releases of the albums, demonstrating our objectivity and legitimacy.
Right now we are victims of some deletions and edits by another user, arguing that our account violates the conflicts of interests rules; a review of these rules, however, shows that this is not the case, as it complies with both http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:CONFLICT#Citing_yourself and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:SELFPUB#Self-published_and_questionable_sources_as_sources_on_themselves
I would really appreciate if you could clarify this point; we are very happy being able to contribute our little grain of sand to Wikipedia, and wish to continue to be able to do so.
Thank you for your help! :) MetalBlastZine ( talk) 00:17, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi Acalamari ! I made a mistake creating this article -> Jay Btech (BteCh) instead of his correct name Jay Btesh (BteSh). Of course, I remade the correct wiki (and redirect page).

Hello Acalamari, Sorry to intrude on your time, but could I just ask for your opinion on the edit-warring which had recently happened on the above article? Way over a year ago editors (myself included) agreed that the result of this battle was best described as "Inconclusive - both sides claimed victory". This was also based on the fact that the US commander at the battle had also stated that the battle was a "draw". However over the past few days a contributor, without even a user page, is edit warring and insisting on the battle being described as: "US Victory". I have tried, via starting his Talk page, to explain that Wikipedia operates by consensus; but this seems to have no effect and he seems to be pushing his own POV via some questionable sources. Do you think there is reason for a block in this case? With best regards, David, David J Johnson ( talk) 12:57, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
You've been busy! You have my gratitude for this edit, although I have no idea what it's all about. Was the vandal making a strange list for the bottom of the image page, or what? – PAINE ELLSWORTH CLIMAX! 20:12, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I am not a registered Wikipedia 'editor'. I have no wish (now) ever to become one. I understand that you among others are capable of revoking a Rollback Right. I candidly do not understand very much about Wikipedia. Bearing that in mind, I invite you to consider the dialogue I have recently had with WIDR who exercised his Rollback Right over my sincere attempt to slightly CORRECT two issues in the Arthur Hugh Clough ARTICLE. In my view WIDR has exercised his Rollback Right arbitrarily, and without regard for what I sincerely attempted from the outset to show was my rightful corrections. 1. an illiterate use of the non-word "need'st" in a quoted peom couplet by Clough. 2. a clafification that Clough was being Ironic, and to say his work was Satiric was too vague a characterisation. I understand that you may be the first English-speaker in the list. I understand that WIDR may be not a native-speaker of English. I have given up writing back to WIDR. I ask you to review her/his Rollback Right or his/her usage of that Right in this particular case. I understand that Widr has some accolades against Vandalism. I was not being a Vandal. I now doubt that Wird was the Article's AUTHOR. I believe he/she simply exercised a one-button arbitrary Rollback Right WITHOUT ANY REGARD FOR THE MERIT OF THE SUGGESTED CORRECTIONS. I should have preferred to tell Widr that I was asking for a review of her/his Rollback Right with a view to it being REVOKED, however I have signed off from his own Widr TALK Page irrevocably (with a parting jest [not a parthian shot] ). I believe that Widr needs a "Caution" at least on this seeming attempt at anti-Vandal Rollbacks. I am certain that the correct usage as used by Clough was "needst" - don't look in Wiki-anywhere to satisfy yourself. Can you correct the Article ?? : I shall not. Apart from sending you this, I shall never again touch another Wiki-anything page. Please see - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Widr Thank you JM 180.200.184.97 ( talk) 12:32, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
Thank you kindly, Acalamari. My LAST rhetorical question to you is HOW will the true "Author[s]" of the original Article ever know what I wrote absolutely pointlessly to Widr, since you appear to agree that Widr was Not the Owner/Author - just an unthinking button-pusher ... Yes, perhaps that IS rather Rude, but Wikipedia claims to encourage 'bold editing' and to give would-be-editors an assumption of Innocence and of Good-Faith; and yet MY attempt simply gets TRASHED by a one-button unthinking vandal-trawler, and MOREOVER my elaborative futher comments that were ASKED FOR by Widr are evidently UTTERLY IRRELEVANT TO Widr and so to Wikipedia Thanks again, Acalamari. Ave atque Vale JM 180.200.185.138 ( talk) 07:17, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
I am sorry but I simply do Not understand. What is presently recorded in the TALK pages might be useful to the 'real' Author[s]. There is still the one ERROR restored by Widr in the 'reverted' page. There is a 'too-prolix' mess of confusion which doesn't adequately differentiate between Satire and Irony; that is, in Clough's supposedly literary criticim / poetry analysis. The Article speculates idly about G. Robertson's (Q.C.) usage of the Clough couplet. These are extra aspects I canvassed with Widr, eveidently UTTERLY POINTLESSLY since all he/she can do is BOMB an attempted edit on a technicality, which I have as a novice contributor, ABSOLUTELY NO understanding about. If anything the "signature" which you have kindly led me to, appears to serve potentially as a footnote leading to my original TALK input. I simply do Not understand, and I have wasted my time, and yours. I regret that. I do not care tuppence what people might imagine, IF those people take no account of this simple fact: to me Widr is an anti-Vandal stormtrooper who disregards Wikipedia's own assertions about its respecting people's Good-Faith. I reiterate, I shall not touch another Wiki-anything anywhere. I appreciate that you have tried to help me, but I remain of the view that Widr is IN EFFECT a Vandal herself/himself. How very exquisitely IRONIC !!! JM 180.200.185.138 ( talk) 08:16, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
Hey Acalamari
I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).
So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.
What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.
The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.

Hello? Is this how you post a message to someone's talk page? :-) To my surprise, I received an email from you via Wikipedia, but I'm sorry, I have no idea what you're talking about. If I have a "talk page," it's news to me. I don't know what it's for, how to access it, how to use it or how to change it. Nor did I ever put "welcome" on it, because that would mean I'm aware I have such a page. If I created said talk page, it must have been inadvertent. I've certainly never used (nor was even aware I had it), and am not likely to ever use it.
Likewise, I have no idea what a "watchlist" is or what you mean by a "redlinked" page, or why I might have one.
I probably registered for Wikipedia two-and-a-half years ago in order to edit some horribly written page that was important to me for some reason (a topic I'm passionate about, etc), so I couldn't bear to see the poor or inaccurate writing... but TBH I rarely sign in to edit-- much too busy! (Not that I would ever want to lose the privilege.) I happened to edit a page today because it's a favorite topic of mine with current events that I've been following closely, and it needed updating and more accuracy. I thought I would just make a quick edit and addition or two, but you know how it is...once you get into it, you end up straightening out the whole thing! (There were several dead links.)
As it is, on another page, I just noticed a complaint about relying on primary sources too much along with a request for secondary or tertiary sources-- so, since I didn't know about that rule, no doubt some happy editor will be delighted to post the same complaint to the page I cleaned up today. (Which would make no sense to me...although I understand the prohibition on self-promotion, I'm a researcher as well as editor, so at all times, primary sources, not secondary or tertiary, are the best ones by far.)
BTW, it would be great if there were simple instructions somewhere for things like "How to post a message to someone else's talk page." After stumbling around for a while, I eventually found your talk page (I think?), but it took me more than an hour to figure out how to get into this message place-- the "Edit" tab is not intuitive because the last thing I'd want to do is edit this page; I only wanted to respond to the email from you and your text said I could post a message for you here. So I didn't want to click on the "Edit" tab in case I inadvertently changed something of yours w/o realizing it. A "Post a message" or "Talk to this User" tab would be nice. Nor did I find any helpful instructions about how to reply to an email/talk page message in any of the gazillion pages of info on talk pages, either--in fact, there were so many of them, it was incredibly confusing, and a real turn-off. You guys do this all the time? Wow, my hat's off to you. :-)
I'd like to stay a registered Wikipedia editor because I'm a good writer, editor, and fact-checker, and I enjoy the opportunity to fix an intolerable grammar mistake, correct a wrong fact, or overhaul a badly written or badly organized page now and then. But a talk page I do not need. If you're an administrator, would you be kind enough to delete my talk page for me? And if you know how I would delete my email address, which apparently is optional, I'd really appreciate it if you could let me know that, too. Thanks! Best wishes Lisa Spenser ( talk) 00:59, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
Hi Acalamari, thanks for your reply to the message above...it explained a lot. No wonder I was so confused! (I was a little worried there, wondering if I'd created a talk page saying 'Welcome' in my sleep or something.) Thank you for the info and links; I will look into it all and try to catch up as time allows. BTW, I understand what you mean by a redlinked page, but not a redlinked talk page. Are you saying that the opportunity for a talk page was auto-generated when I registered to become an editor, but then stayed redlinked because I never officially created the talk page myself? I see that you've been a Wikipedia editor and administrator for a long time, but if I may make a suggestion... I think it would be helpful (and a lot less confusing) if you were to tell folks straightaway in your initial note that you created the page on which you're messaging them! My guess is that if you have to create someone's talk page for him or her, then "Welcome to the Wikipedia editing community" would probably not be inappropriate regardless of how long the editor has been "on" (by which you apparently mean "registered as an editor"). The message that probably would have felt much clearer to me is something like, "Hi, Lisa Spenser, I'm Acalamari, a Wikipedia editing administrator, and I just wanted to introduce myself. Although you've been editing Wikipedia for a couple of years, I noticed that you didn't have a "user talk page" -- a handy feature allowing editors ("users") to communicate with each other -- so I've taken the liberty of creating your talk page for you. If I can ever answer any questions for you, please let me know... here's how you get to my talk page and leave me a message: (etc.). In the meantime, if you're not already familiar with these features, here are some links to user info that you may find useful. Regards (or whatever)...."
All that said, thanks again for clearing up the confusion and for the directions to the user features. Not only did I not know where to find those; I wasn't even aware that I would want to know about them. (The old "Not only do I not know the answers; I don't even know the questions I'm supposed to be asking" scenario.) I will try to become more familiar with user features and terms.

I have been using Twinkle for reverting vandalism, and I am interested in getting rollback permissions so that I can use Huggle. I have over 700 mainspace edits, and, while I'm not sure how to get an exact count, I'm sure I've made well over 100 pure vandalism reverts. I posted a request at Wikipedia:Requests_for_permissions/Rollback#User:Ahecht on June 28th, but that page is backlogged and my request has been sitting unreviewed for over a week. I'll admit that I choose to contact you only because you were listed first alphabetically at Category:Wikipedia administrators willing to grant rollback requests, but I was hoping you'd be able to review my request. Thanks in advance! -- Ahecht ( talk) 20:37, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
I don't usually post to my own talk page in this manner - especially not with something as trivial as this - but does my userpage look okay?

Hello Acalamari, Sorry to trouble you, but can I please ask for your advice/action on the above unregistered IP user? They have made several changes to the Zodiac Killer article by blanking the "unknown" sections of the info box and constantly inserting duplicate information on the Robert Graysmith article. Additionally, they have reverted all comments, by other editors, on their Talk page requesting they abide by Wikipedia conventions in their edits. Whilst I accept they can revert comments on their Talk page, it is all from editors trying to maintain Wikipedia standards. Of course, the last thing I want to do is to edit war, but these contributions without explanation are becoming tiresome. Best regard, David, David J Johnson ( talk) 22:17, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Hello Acalamari,
Its nice to see that an admin with workloads and busy real life takes time out to solve the problems of newcomers. I wanted to give you a barnstar for that but it would fall way short.
Now to a few problems,
There are a few album arts which violate the 300 pixel thumb rule of non-free fair use images. I uploaded low-resolution ones of them and asked the larger versions to be deleted in the teahouse. An Admin did delete one of them but two remained, I notified him after uploading the new ones but my reminder was to no avail. I waited for 3 weeks, so now I want you to please delete the earlier versions if you don't mind. My explanation is available at 23 Use of Cover art. Please a look at these I've added some more.

Hi Acalamari. I write you about User talk:SCHUYLER. This user creates several hoax about a venezuelan boy named Cesar David Yedra Garcia. This is a cross wiki problem. Cesar D. Garcia is a page deleted in Spanish, and Italian. This user uses some ip conexions to create articles like Cesar Yedra, deleted many times here, in spanish, italian, german, french, and other Wikimedia projects. If you search on the web, there is a biography in iMDB.com, and other websites like Wikia.com, and all these pages are Hoaxes created by the same user. If you need more information about this problem you can contact me at my spanish talk's user. Then, I suggest you to delete Cesar D. Garcia, and to ban this user, if local policies allow it.
