Hello, since you commented in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of monarchs in the British Isles, I thought you might like to know that it is again up for discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of monarchs in the British Isles (2nd nomination). Regards, Angus McLellan (Talk) 11:40, 20 March 2008 (UTC) (P.S. Sorry to hear about your misfortunes on the road, and on wiki. Obviously the accident is a bigger deal, so I am very glad to hear that you didn't come off too badly. I hope your bike came out of it ok as well.}
Just take a step back for a while. Either start a new account or use your sock for a while. It will all blow over soon enough. A Rather Hot Donkey Named Bob ( talk) 14:39, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
T. Roosevelt said something similar -
The credit is never given to the critic or to the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or to the man who says he could have done the deed better. The credit always belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is covered with dust and sweat; who strives valiantly; who makes mistakes again and again; who knows great enthusiasms, great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, and who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement.
You are in my thoughts. - Epousesquecido ( talk) 15:45, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
but John, Ckatz, Qst, WJBScribe, even Ryan Postlethwaite... they're all reverting the anons and so forth because they care about you and respect you. Hope that helps... Hang in there. ++ Lar: t/ c 20:40, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Here's a free barnstar! I am feeling generous today and i'm giving you one just for fun! Hope you get better! Cream -- Cream ( talk) 19:42, 24 March 2008 (UTC) |
Thanks for your interest in coming and being a part of a conversation! - I'm going to host a chit chat at 00.00 UTC March 26th (which is probably tomorrow for most - it's 8.00pm east coast US) - it'd be great if you can come along, and I've created a new 'confirmed' participants section at the wiki page, which it would be great if you could pop over and sign, if you are indeed available! - I hope so, and I look forward to chatting tomorrow! best, Privatemusings ( talk) 02:12, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Hey, you're back. Just when I thought you had retired for good, looks like it was just a four day wikibreak. Nice to see you're back. Useight ( talk) 23:54, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Colleen Mccabe.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot ( talk) 12:29, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
See this, please. — TreasuryTag— t— c 13:12, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Just thought I'd let you know that there's a discussion about the above at the WikiProject, and I'm inviting all of the members to join in D B D 13:37, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Hello! I'm here to inform you that the Tzatziki Squad has begun a new collaboration, history of timekeeping devices. The goal for the article is Featured status. Please pitch in as much or as little as you can, we appreciate your help! Keilana| Parlez ici 21:15, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for expressing an interest in coming along to the next conversation - if you click above you'll see that we've confirmed a new date and time, and have also created a new 'confirmed participants' section (sorry about the extra hoops to jump through - but hopefully it'll help us figure out if 'everyone's here'!) - if you do happen to be free at the suggested time, that's great! - I'll create the 'room' about 30mins early, as usual, and please do pop in as soon as possible so we can iron out the inevitable technical problems in time for a prompt-ish start! thanks, and I look forward to chatting tomorrow! best, Privatemusings ( talk) 22:30, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Keep it quiet, or people will realize we're sockpuppets. Friday (talk) 19:55, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
Any clue what happened here? Metros ( talk) 12:43, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
This was canvassing, pure and simple. Also, please assume good faith in your edit summaries - I'm quite offended at your lack of it towards myself on this issue. Orderinchaos 13:42, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Marjorly. I would like to talk about rewriting the article "Howrse". It was first deleted, because "it is an article about a forum". Howrse is not a forum, but a computer game.Then, I saw that it was deleted again, because someone was sort of advertising the game. So, may I please rewrite the article? I have experience with writing articles about products or games (see Fly Fusion Pentop Computer, which was my first article.), without advertising them. I would be happy to write the article, since I know what Howrse is.-- Listen to your Princess, dear Wikipedians. ( talk) 21:06, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
Hi! Would you mind deleting my userpage history and just leaving the most recent version? Thank you! · Ty grrr... 16:23, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
When I tried to PM, IRC died on me. So I went ahead and did it with my best judgement at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Privatemusing_posting_for_banned_user. MBisanz talk 21:50, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
why do you continually revert the external link?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.253.90.43 ( talk) 22:18, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for your support in my RFA, that didn't quite make it and ended at 120/47/13. There was a ton of great advice there, that I'm going to go on. Maybe someday. If not, there are articles to write! Thanks for your support. Lawrence § t/ e 17:39, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
Wait-a-go for wheel-warring. Pray tell, what's the point in protecting a page if another admin's going to wade in and edit regardless? You should a) have contacted the protecting party first, and b) formed concensus on the talk page. I'm sorely tempted to go and revert your edit, but I'm not going to wheel-war myself. Edit even better - ignore the admins that have been dealing with it for the past eight hours, cut across them and unprotect. Well done you. Talk Islander 23:22, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for sorting out the Mark Speight article as I have been arguing the same point as you for some time but unfortunately no admin status for me was not very advantageous on my part! -- Energizer07 ( talk) 23:34, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
