Hi Julie. I've got a little question for you! :) I've came across a request where the particular IP received various warnings for vandalism. Should I create the user, or not? Kind regards, Lourie Pieterse 18:09, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Hi Julie. I've got IRC yesterday and started to get the grip of it. Didn't see you on any of the channels. Would like to chat sometime with you. Kind regards, Lourie Pieterse 19:20, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
I've added some more information, taken from Simon Ward's recently published Chester: A History. This states that the Grosvenors bought the building in 1815 (earlier than is suggested in the Virtual Stroll). Simon Ward is one of Chester's senior archaeologists, and I accept that he is more likely to be authoritative than the author of the Virtual Stroll(!). Hope this expansion is OK by you. I think this article has further to go, but many thanks for starting it (and I hope my edits have not had an adverse effect on your DYK). Cheers. Peter I. Vardy ( talk) 16:43, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi Julie! I've done the flag and the Coats of Arms of the municipality of Herrera del Duque. The problem is that in the infobox, under the image of the coats of arms appears the text "Seal". This is a bug, a seal is something metallic that was used to mark the letters. I think that this infobox is made by someone from U.S. where they have another meaning for the word seal. They uses seals like a symbol, but a seal don't follow a heraldic rules. In Europe, we use coats of arms (blason in French, wappen in German, escudo in Spanish, escut in Catalan, brasao in Portugues...), we don't use seals, or the utility of the seals is very different here that in the U.S. See the article of United States, you will see the "seal" of U.S., but in Spain or United Kingdom we have coats of arms.

I've got "the geek mentality". I cannot stand to see a misstatement stand. I get lost in some of the details of the Wiki editing language, so it often takes three edits or so to get where I want.

Hi Maedin. I received your message. Congratulations on becoming an admin and thanks so much for the praise. I've been approached before about being an administrator. One of the bureaucrats asked me about it in the past. I considered it for a long time then and basically I decided I like what I do on Wikipedia too much to muddy up my days dealing with adminstration problems. I have a lot of projects going on, mostly through WP:ACTOR and some through WP:FILM that take up a great deal of my time. It seems and feels like I mostly run WP:ACTOR since we're not as organized as WP:FILM and that is often time consuming. I do admit there are times I wish I had the tools to block vandals, pre-teen sockpuppets and deal with those problems, but health-wise and mental health-wise, I do my best work behind the scenes. I do appreciate the thought and the confidence in me, but I must decline. I do hope that I can call on you if I run across persistent problems, though. Thanks so much.

Hi Maedin! Just saying hi; long time no see! How are the (not-so-new-anymore) tools treating you? Hopefully all is well and dandy! upstate NYer 21:19, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
Hello Upstate, thank you for stopping by, ;-) I've been really lax in keeping up with FPC, I know, :-/ As for the admin tools . . . wellllllllll . . . I've only blocked one IP, and found myself absolutely clueless as to how long I should block for, and couldn't find any guidance on it! Maybe I didn't look hard enough or maybe I was just supposed to use my judgement, but I went for 24 hours. I don't think that I'll be looking to do many more blocks, so you won't see me around at AIV! I've been working on the history merge list, I've done about 32 of those so far. Other than that, I haven't really got stuck into any other admin work, and my course has started so I have a lot less time. But I have high hopes that I'll get around to pushing the mop more in the near future. Hope things are well with you; it is a lovely time of year where you are, I hope you are getting time to enjoy it, in the middle of uni!

Hi Julie! I'm here to do a question to you. I don't know the external links rules in this wiki, but in the Spanish are not allowed comercial external links, and we only let a few external links, often only to official web pages. There are an user that try to add a external link into the Sitges's article in the Spanish wikipedia and I don't let him (well, not me, the rules don't let him and I apply the rules). The user "Topsitges" try to add one external link to a web page named "www.topsitges.com", and I think that this is spam. They explain me that in this wiki there are a lot of comercial links and not official links in the article of the municipality of Sitges, in Spain. Could you be so kind to revise the external links of this article, please? -- Xavigivax ( talk) 08:03, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi Maedin, Can you help me please? User 82.23.187.195 has been making hundreds(?) of vandalism attacks, changing heights by 1cm, date of birth by 1 day, etc. I have fixed 10ish over my very slow broadband link but there are simply too many.

Hi Julie! I'm here because I found a bug in a name of a town of the south of Spain. The correct name is "La Tahá" with acute, but the article's name actually is La Taha without the acute.

Hope I didn't come across as sneering. (To an Admin.?!) Apologies if I did. Hard to express in text only sometime.
Agree 1,000% about landlords! The story I could tell you about my ex-landlord and leaking taps! Sympathy! Kudos for being kind to your male friend, we are delicate creatures, with fragile egos ;-)). I was pretty sure you meant doing the dishes, (I speak Australian but manage to understand English, New Zealandish I have a little trouble with) but it seemed you were still running out of hot water too soon.
Water heating may help, info. wise. Try monitoring the valve leak and see if it gets worse. My last (obvious) suggestion would be for a plumber ($!) to check the incoming pressure is within specification, thought that won't make the water last any longer!. 220.101.28.25 ( talk) 15:50, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
Oh that's good. You didnt come across sarcastic either, well, maybe a little 'peeved' at all the 'helpful' males. ;-)) You are obviously not a prat!. I'd be careful about mentioning need for male companionship 'on-line' though. There are some very
'interesting'
characters here about! But if you happen to find a suitable male plumber, all the better! As for water heating, my direct experience is all with 'instant' heat types, which have their own list of problems, but they don't 'run out'! Your flats water system must have been designed for (or by?) a male bachelor, not for a young lady. Yes I thought that dripping water and
chipboard is NOT a good combination. Doesn't it have a 'drip tray' of some sort ? --

Hi Maedin! Just saying hi; long time no see! How are the (not-so-new-anymore) tools treating you? Hopefully all is well and dandy! upstate NYer 21:19, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
Hello Upstate, thank you for stopping by, ;-) I've been really lax in keeping up with FPC, I know, :-/ As for the admin tools . . . wellllllllll . . . I've only blocked one IP, and found myself absolutely clueless as to how long I should block for, and couldn't find any guidance on it! Maybe I didn't look hard enough or maybe I was just supposed to use my judgement, but I went for 24 hours. I don't think that I'll be looking to do many more blocks, so you won't see me around at AIV! I've been working on the history merge list, I've done about 32 of those so far. Other than that, I haven't really got stuck into any other admin work, and my course has started so I have a lot less time. But I have high hopes that I'll get around to pushing the mop more in the near future. Hope things are well with you; it is a lovely time of year where you are, I hope you are getting time to enjoy it, in the middle of uni!

Hi Julie! I'm here to do a question to you. I don't know the external links rules in this wiki, but in the Spanish are not allowed comercial external links, and we only let a few external links, often only to official web pages. There are an user that try to add a external link into the Sitges's article in the Spanish wikipedia and I don't let him (well, not me, the rules don't let him and I apply the rules). The user "Topsitges" try to add one external link to a web page named "www.topsitges.com", and I think that this is spam. They explain me that in this wiki there are a lot of comercial links and not official links in the article of the municipality of Sitges, in Spain. Could you be so kind to revise the external links of this article, please? -- Xavigivax ( talk) 08:03, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi Maedin, Can you help me please? User 82.23.187.195 has been making hundreds(?) of vandalism attacks, changing heights by 1cm, date of birth by 1 day, etc. I have fixed 10ish over my very slow broadband link but there are simply too many. The attacks are interleaved with occasional valid entries, but never anything of importance. Do you have tools to undo everything? Can you block him? or something? Regards Chienlit ( talk) 18:24, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi Julie! I'm here because I found a bug in a name of a town of the south of Spain. The correct name is "La Tahá" with acute, but the article's name actually is La Taha without the acute. I tried to move the article, but it says that the page already exist. The redirection is wrong. Regards! -- Xavigivax ( talk) 17:05, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

What would you say that is your specialty here in wikipedia? This may be a silly question, but I was just curious. - Woglinde 02 ( talk) 16:56, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
Hope I didn't come across as sneering. (To an Admin.?!) Apologies if I did. Hard to express in text only sometime.
Agree 1,000% about landlords! The story I could tell you about my ex-landlord and leaking taps! Sympathy! Kudos for being kind to your male friend, we are delicate creatures, with fragile egos ;-)). I was pretty sure you meant doing the dishes, (I speak Australian but manage to understand English, New Zealandish I have a little trouble with) but it seemed you were still running out of hot water too soon.
Water heating may help, info. wise. Try monitoring the valve leak and see if it gets worse. My last (obvious) suggestion would be for a plumber ($!) to check the incoming pressure is within specification, thought that won't make the water last any longer!. 220.101.28.25 ( talk) 15:50, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
Oh that's good. You didnt come across sarcastic either, well, maybe a little 'peeved' at all the 'helpful' males. ;-)) You are obviously not a prat!. I'd be careful about mentioning need for male companionship 'on-line' though. There are some very
'interesting'
characters here about! But if you happen to find a suitable male plumber, all the better! As for water heating, my direct experience is all with 'instant' heat types, which have their own list of problems, but they don't 'run out'! Your flats water system must have been designed for (or by?) a male bachelor, not for a young lady. Yes I thought that dripping water and
chipboard is NOT a good combination. Doesn't it have a 'drip tray' of some sort ? --
