I like the format of your user page, so much that I added a favorites section to mine. I even used a couple of the userboxes on your page as well. I just wanted to thank you for the ideas, it look like you put a lot of work into yours. I think the quotes section is a good idea, I might want to do that for mine too. Thanks for the excellent example. Oh, by the way, for your favorite movies you have the Shrek movies listed twice. Thanks again. -- Nehrams2020 05:33, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Please assume good faith when dealing with other editors. See Wikipedia:Assume good faith for the guidelines on this. Happy editing!
Do Not abuse your VandalProof Privileges. It is not Obvious that 70.59.119.37 was vandalising. I could tell why the user removed removed that paragraph even before his last edit with an explanation (and was considering removing it myself). Their are very few editors who are willing to remove content in the name of improvement. Not all IP addresses are Vandalism. Please Discuss these edits with the user and remember the 3RR. You will lose your VandalProof Privileges if you cannot handle it. There is a reason only Admins are automatically giving rollback privileges.
I doubt a Vandal would use the edit summary (rv to Mairi). He/She Obviously Knows what he is doing. Sometimes less is more and we need people who are willing to put their foot in and say this information does not add to this article.
It is unfortunate that This user left it until the last edit to actually explain why He she Did what he did (→Trivia - RV to Mairi, Only picking 2 different areas and not mentioning the rest of the world) so In retrospect it Obviously is not vandalism, However I recognized the Deletion was Good Faith right away. There is no excuse for you to revert twice. That line the user deleted was just recently added and was under Trivia. We don't need Everything in Every Article. I personally wouldn't have deleted it but you have to respect other users Ideas about Wikipedia-- E-Bod 00:58, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
Please be careful about reverting edits. Especially reverting edits which themselves are reverts of actual vandalism. There's a troll on Stephen K. Hayes who has tried many times to insert the unverified claim that Heyes only trained in Japan for 3 weeks. The edit you reverted was a fix of his latest attempt. -- Rustedshuriken 23:57, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
Surely you agree the idea of Cascadia is a weed-fueled hippy pipe dream! Outside of the geographical/climatic continuity, they have no coherent political motives with which to further their ridiculous idea.
The link Christopher Reeve was an asshole should be allowed on the Christopher Reeve page because it makes the artical more NPOV by offering criticism to Christopher. And if the line "He is the subject of popular jokes, such as "What is the opposite of Christopher Reeve? Christopher Walken!" there should be a link to the Maddox article.
Um, excuse me. I'm not vandalizing anything and stuff. I've been watching both Gackt and Matsumoto Hitoshi as they are both left-handed and you pulled 'em out. I've been watching these guys for over a year now. So don't remove 'em cuz' it's already been proven. I suggest you watch YouTube with videos of Downtown (in Katakana) and prove me wrong there, pal.
BENSON IS A MISGUIDED WIKIPEDIAN. BENSON VANDALIZED A PAGE BECAUSE HE HAS NO SUPERVISION... ALTHOUGH BENSON DOES HAVE SUPER VISION. HELP! BENSON... I MEAN ANONYMOUS USER 12:13, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
Hey, I have a question. I could be honestly mistaken, but there seems to be a user named 216.244.12.76 who (appears) to be going through The Twilight Zone episode articles and deleting sections of them (for example, the "Themes" section). I have made these articles a small personal project of mine (to expand and improve them). I also created the new Wiki Category: Category: The Twilight Zone Actors. Can you assist me in investigating this? Please? Thank you. User:ProfessorPaul ProfessorPaul 21:30, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for responding to my "good faith enquiry." I ask you for 2 reasons: 1. You were the first person to enter anything on 216.244.12.76's talk page. 2. I have received no response from 216.244.12.76--he appears to be deleting whole categories in The Twilight Zone episode articles--and (I am sorry, but) I suspect vandalism.
The categories he is deleting are "Themes" of Twilight Zone episodes (like "death personified" or "man's identity" or "aliens invade Earth"); the "Themes" category lists other episodes where the theme is revisited. It is (in my view) a very helpful and legitimate category to have in the brief articles (I did not invent the category; but I was expanding and adding to them--to make them more useful).
Anyway--I do not mean to be accusatory, but 216.244.12.76 may be committing vandalism. As I have stated--I left 216.244.12.76 a message on his/her talk page; I have received no response.
yeah my freind didn't believe it would get changed back in less then a minute... he lost the bet
Thanks for the advice on the SBTB:TNC episode box. That'll probably make it a WHOOOOle lot easier. Eyeball kid 17:26, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
I would like to let you know that I have fixed your slightly malformed RfA page, which you also posted at the bottom of the WP:RFA page instead of at the top. Lucky that it was fixed quickly, because many editors around here will not support any malformed RfA. — Mets501 ( talk) 00:53, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
I closed your RfA due to a consensus not to promote and a WP:SNOW situation (everything that useful has been said already). Please read the oppose votes and take not of the reasons so that you know what to improve on so that you can pass your next RfA. Voice-of-All 19:10, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
Yes ok but I have checked up on the article and it is legitamate. People can then add detail once the article exists. What is the point in deleting it if it is worthy and if it contributres the expanding wikipedia! Sorry I am trying to help!
let me guess its the case error - it needs to be "Roberto Abraham" ?
hi yes don't worry mate -of course there are too many twats on the Internet who do write dodgy and pathetic articles which need to be deleted but I am good. thanks.
Well, obviously the first place to start is the main project page. They have a to do list that could be of some assistance. I would suggest that you bookmark the list of stub types as it is probably the most useful page in the whole project. In partiuclar, what I do is as follows:
(A much better description of this process is listed here)
I hope that helps some, and if you have any more questions, let me know or leave a messsage on the Project's talk page. Have a great day and happy editing! Amalas =^_^= 20:28, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Also, to officially "join" you can add this: {{User wikipedia/WikiProject Stub sorting participants}} to your user page. Amalas =^_^= 20:30, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
I'll try to use Preview more often, but Adolf Hitler is a long article and thus may be pretty clumsy to edit. — Rickyrab | Talk 16:46, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
