Hello, Bakanov, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

If you are interested in Russia-related themes, you may want to check out the Russia Portal, particularly the Portal:Russia/New article announcements and Portal:Russia/Russia-related Wikipedia notice board. You may even want to add these boards to your watchlist.
Again, welcome! -- Ghirla -трёп- 17:34, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
Just joining the welcomes. Also, similar to the Russia portal, there is a Ukraine portal, if you are interested. It also has a new article announcement board which is useful to add to your watchlist if you are interested in Ukrainian topics as well. -- Irpen 18:44, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
Category:Aspergian Wikipedians which you have included on your user page has been proposed for deletion you can comment at Wikipedia:Categories for deletion#Category:Wikipedians by mental condition.

Dear Bakanov,
Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.2 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that for security reasons, VandalProof's creator requires it's users to have made 250 edits to articles, which you have not. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. - Gl e n T C (Stollery) 21:15, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Is there a reason for your revert of my edits to WP:LTA? I've been attempting to clear it up steadily as it's currently in a poor state. 68.39.174.238 17:00, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
Hi there
Thanks for this catch. I confess to be completely ignorant about footy but the vandalism here over the past couple of days has been considerable and I've had difficulty finding "good" reverts. There are at least 3 IP addresses and 2 registered users playing games here (the IP are not the same organisations). It's on my watch list too - hope the day is good for you - cheers -- Nigel ( Talk) 11:29, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for joining! Glad to have you here! Don't hesitate to contact me if you have questions. Thisthema n 05:26, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Hi, Bakanov, thank you for applying for VandalProof. I am happy to announce that you are now authorized for use, so if you haven't already, simply download VandalProof from our main page and install it, and you're all set!

Please join the VandalProof user category by adding either: {{ User:Vishwin60/Userbox/VandalProof}} (which will add this user box) or [[Category:Wikipedians using VandalProof]] to your user page.
If you have any queries, please feel free to contact me or post a message on VandalProof's talk page. Welcome to our team! - Glen 03:06, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Hi, regarding your revert of the question asked at Wikipedia:Reference desk/Miscellaneous ( [1]) - why is this marked as vandalism? It is in allcaps, which is annoying, but it's entirely possible that it's a legitimate query. Ziggurat 11:52, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
What I have added to wikipedia concerning the entry Regina, is completely factual and intended to assist the reader. It is a fact that the city Regina rhymes with "vagina". This is a common mistake for people talking about our city, and the clarification is useful to the reader. Please reinsert my addition.
Retrieved from " http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:NigelR"
For some reason the IPA pronunciation comes across as gibberish. One cannot see how to pronounce Regina properly. I have checked this on several computers, including the computer available at the City of Regina, and the IPA does not show up properly. That is why I think the rhyming is more helpful to the readers.
I have done no such thing, I did not even look at the page, let alone edit it. You have made a mistake, I believe. I have left all positive contributions to Wiki, but how did my ISP number turn up, as I didnt even go on that page?
It wasn't an experiment; I think the change was correct: 'elementary' means that something is an elemental part of the whole under discussion. The original version was thus wrong (the cited concepts are elementary with respect to one time pads). I suspect the original author meant non-trivial but I prefer the less-convoluted hard-to-do. Encyclopedias should be concise and elegant but usually not fancyful.
Can you look at this one - Leonard Susskind. Think I'm getting the reverts right but he is giving me grief and placing warnings on my page!! Cheers -- Nigel ( Talk) 12:54, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
Hello, I noticed that you have edited the Wikipedia:Hangman page. Unfortunately, for the time being, the Wikipedia Hangman page is inactive. But, you may be interested to know that there is an international Hangman tournament which you can join if you like. We would love to have you! Ian Manka Talk to me! 03:06, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
I've noticed no one's wished you a happy birthday (sorry if I am mistaken), so here you go (also, I just barely joined the Committee, so this is the earliest I could give it to you)!

This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 21:17, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
You may be interested in User:Audacity/Userboxes/WSPQ, which is a replacement for the old Political Chart userbox. The new userbox takes the two variables (economic and personal freedom), calculates which political alignment they place you into (Statist, Libertarian, Liberal, Centrist, or Conservative), and links your userpage to the appropriate category.
Please reply to User talk:Audacity, as I will not be watching your talk page. Λυδαcιτγ 07:37, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day ( see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 01:50, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
