I've tried to answer some of your questions over in Talk:Brian_D._Mitchell , can you take a look?
Also, is it alright with you if I borrow your template 'Welcomeg' for me talk page with a few modifications? Cheers Wombat24 ( talk) 22:59, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
Hello. Another editor much expanded the already too long plot summary at Fiddler on the Roof. I have reverted. If you think the other editor did anything useful, please leave a note at the Fiddler talk page, and we can discuss what ought to be added, if anything, but we need to try to make the plot summaries in these musicals articles as efficient as we can; readers of the encyclopedia need a short summary that they can get through easily. All the best, -- Ssilvers ( talk) 13:38, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi Girlwithgreeneyes,
I notice that you've been doing some great work regarding CHERUB and Henderson's Boys. Please consider joining the CHERUB and Henderson's Boys task force, an effort to improve Wikipedia's coverage of CHERUB and Henderson's Boys. If you would like to participate please pop over to the project page where you can join the project and see an open list of tasks that you can help with. Thank you for your time. |

Thanks for your input on Classic book. I thought you'd like to know that Mr. Twain's quote is there in the 'Quotes' section, right before 'References'. I might need to tweak the names and make the font a little bigger. Shearonink ( talk) 23:20, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
That's not you, is it? In noticing the striking similarity between our usernames (I just changed mine, I'm keeping the old sig for a couple weeks), I thought I'd check out your userpage. And the pic is fantastic, I'd love to "swipe" it for myself. A 'course, if that's you, I wouldn't really feel right about it. Just curious. Nosleep ( Talk · Contribs) 01:56, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

Can you please tell me how to convert the bare urls on Alexander McQueen (brand) without having to through them one by one? Reqluce ( talk) 22:50, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
I just noticed that you left a message on the page re "experimenting". I don't think this new editor is experimenting. I think it's a young person editting. The same editor made similarly simple edits to Sistine Chapel ceiling. I would rather encourage than shoo away, if possible. He will almost certainly show up on the Leonardo da Vinci pages!

I noticed the prank you put on Jimbo's user page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scientific Alan 2 ( talk • contribs) 02:21, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi,
I made the original alteration as a reflection that although LW&W was written first, Lewis wrote the Magician's Nephew as a prequel and intended it to be the first book read in the series.
From the page you linked:
In the 2005 Harper Collins adult editions of the books, the publisher cites this letter to assert Lewis' preference for the numbering they adopted by including this notice on the copyright page:
Although The Magician's Nephew was written several years after C. S. Lewis first began The Chronicles of Narnia, he wanted it to be read as the first book in the series. Harper Collins is happy to present these books in the order which Professor Lewis preferred.
The "publisher's alteration" you cite is the intention of the author.

I thought the whole book was an advert. You probably know far more than I on silverware so it is good that you reverted my edit to include useful information.-- Canoe1967 ( talk) 23:20, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
I agree. I came across some very stale merge tags on two articles earlier. I don't think they need merge at all. They were tagged, one person agreed, then they were too lazy to merge them. I may just go rem the tags to clear merge backlog.-- Canoe1967 ( talk) 00:10, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi!
My name is Victor and I'm a storyteller with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. I'm chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who make and use Wikipedia have so much to share. I found your username from the Highbeam application list.
I'd very much like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project, or if you know anyone with whom I should speak.
Thank you for your time,
Victor Grigas
