The term 'brick' is clearly a reference to, well, a brick of heroin. Have you seen the film? The article was wrong, a brick does not and never has referred to a dose of heroin. Have reverted the article again, please leave it as is, unless you would like to improve the wording of the edit. Jakob Reznik ( talk) 00:46, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

I see that you were one of the participants in the recent AfD on the article Christianity and Judaism. That AfD recommended (in a snowball result) that the article be merged into Judeo-Christian. However, since the AfD concerns have been raised, most notably
Having contacted the closing admin, his advice was to open a new discussion at Talk:Christianity and Judaism, advertise the discussion widely, and if a new consensus can be reached in that discussion [his emphasis], then per WP:CCC the new consensus should be followed, rather than the AfD decision, without the need for a DRV or a new AfD. Concerns about the proposed merge have also been expressed by Slrubenstein ( talk · contribs), LisaLiel ( talk · contribs) and SkyWriter ( talk · contribs). This post is therefore to let you know that that discussion is underway, at Talk:Christianity and Judaism#Overly speedy deletion, with a view to perhaps setting aside the AfD decision. Of course, some significant issues were raised in the AfD about the article in its present form, so the best way forward is a question that needs some thought. Please feel welcome to come and participate! Jheald ( talk) 07:50, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
Deletion process updateJust to let you know that there has been a recent update to the criteria for relisting AFDs. You can see the full details at WP:RELIST. The main update is that relisting an AFD a second time should only be done in exceptional circumstances. I'm letting you know because you have recently been active in relisting AFDs.

Alert bot / Wikiproject PhysicsHello Legoktm, could you add WikiProject Physics to the AlertBot list? (Page: WikiProject Physics; Banner: Physics) They originally requested the bot, so I'd like to have them in the test phase. -- B. Wolterding ( talk) 18:23, 5 October 2008 (UTC) AfC scriptHi, you mentioned you might look into writing a script to help us with the AfC submissions. Well, it seems we are sticking with this new process so perhaps you could look into this when you have time? Thanks, MSGJ 16:11, 6 October 2008 (UTC) How to acesses a deleted pageDo you know how a non-adminsitrator could get acsess to a deleted page. Could I please see the archives to the dark channel page?

Article Alert BotJust wanted to drop by and leave a note: the Article Alert Bot is working excellently. Thanks much for the tool: it saves loads of time. Lazulilasher ( talk) 23:03, 11 October 2008 (UTC) Wikicookie
Need help with cite-format (article almost ready for another FAC)Hi. I hope you don't mind me dropping in uninvited. I found you at the Citation cleanup project. You see, the article on Sitakunda Upazila failed an FAC mostly because of cite-format issues (inconsistent format, missing bits of information etc.). I have fixed all the issues raised, but, I feel, an expert hand may be needed to fix further problems. Would you take a look? Please? I, of course will be there to provide any clarification or information necessary. Aditya( talk • contribs) 13:42, 21 October 2008 (UTC) Cite Ref NameHi Legoktm, The new reference style on the Nathan F Cobb Shipwreck article is much more aesthetic and organized looking. With me being a "noob" in the Wikipedia domain, I was wondering if you have a link or a template to that particular reference style? Thanks. Sammyknoxg ( talk) 19:12, 21 October 2008 (UTC)Sammyknoxg Lego 4 botA bot that checks weekly for broken links sounds like a great idea. Would it be possible for the bot to check all pages that have been tagged by WP:ROBO weekly? (Feel free to reply here.) - Dan Dank55 ( send/receive) 20:23, 24 October 2008 (UTC) John Bot IIThank you for your continued tagging efforts, keep it up! CWii( Talk| Contribs) 18:36, 25 October 2008 (UTC) Self-service subscriptions for ArticleAlertbotHello Legoktm, here's a new version of the bot [1]. There are some wording changes, and the bot may now more often request pages from the live wiki (in connection with GA nominations). But the main change is that the self-service subscription system is now implemented. At the beginning of each bot run, the bot will download subscriptions from ‹The template Category link is being considered for merging.› Category:ArticleAlertbot subscriptions. These are added to the alertsubscr table; they can be identified as having the "auto_subscription" field set to 1. Existing, manually configured subscriptions will not be modified. This step is included in AlertsBatch, but can also be called individually as org.toolserver.alertbot.SubscriptionBatch. Project can then subscribe to the article alerts by placing a template, User:ArticleAlertbot/Subscription, onto their project page. This will move the project page to ‹The template Category link is being considered for merging.› Category:ArticleAlertbot subscriptions, from where the bot will download its subscriptions. At the moment, I have put the subscription template onto one test page, Wikipedia:ArticleAlertbot test page. But once everything works there, we can roll it out to more projects very easily - supposing that we consider the bot stable, of course. -- B. Wolterding ( talk) 11:01, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
B.Wolterding tells me that since WP:PHYS was part of the test phase bot will ignore the subscription template for now, and that I should ask you to make AAB not ignore the template when you are ready. So... if/when you don't need to ignore the template, could you make AAB not ignore it? Thanks. Headbomb { ταλκ – WP Physics: PotW} 09:19, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

I know what I'm doingHi! Regarding this edit, I have moved this wizard-bypass option to the "advanced uses" page as it seemed more appropriate there. Let me know what you think, please. MSGJ 13:08, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Oct 30Hi Legoktm, I noticed that ArticleAlertbot didn't edit this night - is there anything to see in AlertsBatch.log what the reason was? -- B. Wolterding ( talk) 08:51, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
