Just a quick note to say I haven't forgotten, and am still working through the article whittling what isn't needed down. I have to add some info on the band's Momentary Lapse tour, and I think then the touring section will be in some kind of order. I'm not quite certain what to do regarding the 'band's' post-Live8 concerts. What do you think? Parrot of Doom 20:54, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
I've sourced most, but maybe not all, of the missing facts in the article. You might like to take a look when you have time. Ohconfucius ¡digame! 09:55, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for all your hard work on my report and for submitting it. I know you have limited time and I appreciate that you spent some if it in helping me. My intention is not to monopolize any more of my advisers' time. I hope the era of lengthy posts is over! (I guess we wait for an outcome from arbcom now?) Regards, — mattisse ( Talk) 18:33, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi SilkTork! I just wanted to let you know that unfortunately, my internet conection has gone down at home - which is where I do most of my Wiki editing from. It should be up and running again by Tuesday or Wednesday next week at the latest, I would've thought. I will be checking in between now and then as often as I can but just be aware that I might not be able to respond to any comments that you or Cbben leave on the GA talk page or edits that you make to the article as quickly as I normally would. As I say, this should only last until early next week (hopefully) but I just wanted to give you the heads up. -- Kohoutek1138 ( talk) 12:52, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
I made some changes to the article two weeks ago, and there has been no response. No one else is swooping out of the ether to help with this article, and I'm going to be away from wikipedia for a few weeks starting on Tuesday. Let me know what's up. Thegreatdr ( talk) 03:32, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
Thanks! BTW, I removed the change of the software notability article from historical to in use. The current version isn't usable which is why it was rejected. There is active discussion on fixing it on the discussion page there. Miami33139 ( talk) 19:33, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi, SilkTork. I look at Pink Floyd and choice Mr. Tambourine Man, which has passed :-) But I could be punished for this, as Bix Beiderbecke looks likely to be real work. :-/ -- Philcha ( talk) 19:43, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi, I think that the split should wait, not the merge. The article has been merged for quite a long while (after some back-and-forth) and its combined size is really not huge enough to need a split. I don't see that the inclusion of Madonna's cover upsets the summary style (as you noted) or the formatting overall... her cover version (a #1 UK hit) is certainly a part of the song's history. Common sense (to me, at least) is to keep the versions together. Because of the number of people interested in the topic of where to place notable cover versions, I'm suggesting it stay as it was (merged)... or at the very least open a discussion on American Pie's own Talk Page before making such a huge change. - eo ( talk) 12:09, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
Since you decided to usurp the title of Vice-chancellor and redirect it to the disambiguation page, I hope you intend to pitch in and fix the 1,400 or so other articles that contain links to that title and now all need to be individually reviewed and retargeted. -- R'n'B ( call me Russ) 10:53, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
I replied to your concerns, it's totally my fault. Thanks Secret account 00:40, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
Silktork, I've now put this article up for peer review. Thought you might be interested, since you were so involved in its improvement. Thanks. -- Christine ( talk) 19:51, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
Hello again, trust you're well. Was wondering if you'd be interested in GA reviewing HMS Belfast. Have not yet nominated it. Regards, -- IxK85 ( talk) 11:19, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask any of the project coordinators or any other experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome, and we are looking forward to seeing you around! - MBK 004 02:20, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Adnams.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk) 07:20, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
Emailed reply with love and hugs. -- Joopercoopers ( talk) 02:28, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:Graham Greene.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. - Jayanta Nath ( Talk| Contrb) 08:41, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
