RfA thanksJust wanted to say thanks for supporting me! Please find your thank you card here, should you wish to see it. I'm honored to have received your support. All the best, ~Eliz81(C) 02:23, 24 November 2007 (UTC) And more thanksHey GlassCobra, I know you don't like those template messages, so I'll just thank you with simple text. Your support means a lot to me. Let me know if I can be of help with any admin-related stuff (though I think it's going to take me a while to get up to speed with it all!). - Kathryn NicDhàna ♫♦♫ 01:45, 25 November 2007 (UTC) Thanks againAbout the south park edit, I've never seen a morning like this in my 2+ years at Wikipedia.

Skyman vandalismNo problem! Thanks for catching it first. NawlinWiki (talk) 18:44, 27 November 2007 (UTC) Deletion reviewAn editor has asked for a deletion review of Yankee go home. Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. 64.178.96.168 (talk) 21:45, 27 November 2007 (UTC) AfD nomination of Cinq-OThank youFor the congratulations. :) Acalamari 00:27, 29 November 2007 (UTC) ProseHey, GlassCobra - sorry to disturb you :p. I don't exactly understand what prose is and how to use it in articles. Would you mind clarifying for me? Thanks :) — NovaDog — (contribs) 01:10, 29 November 2007 (UTC) Ugh, I'm burnt out already. Good night :) — NovaDog — (contribs) 02:46, 29 November 2007 (UTC) Re: Can I Have It like That"Like" can be treated as a preposition and conjunction. WP:NAME#Album and song titles and band names says to uncapitalise them. Why do you prefer capitals? I heard that Americans are more likely to capitalise letters than British spellers.

Also, I didn't even realise this until now but thanks for reverting the vandalism on my userpage!

I am presently going to undergo admin coaching in preparation for a second candidacy somewhere down the line. I hope to see your continued support in the future. Regards, —Scott5114↗ 07:30, 29 November 2007 (UTC) My RfAHey. You recently opposed my failed RfA, commenting that you felt that I needed more variety in my edits. While I could agree that I do not have a wealth of edits, I feel as though I do have variety in my editing. At any rate, I was wondering what sort of areas you would like to see me work in? Thanks. SorryGuy 03:28, 30 November 2007 (UTC) ThanksThank you for handling that. I've since learned the features. Not that I'm a Wayne Static fan, but we do have to keep everything up to standard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.86.148.177 (talk) 03:30, 30 November 2007 (UTC) RFA thanks
U/PHi. Please could you delete my user page for me? Also please respond on this page - which I will be watching - as I wish for my talk page not to be used. Thank you! Harris Morgan 22:53, 30 November 2007 (UTC).

I am new and need some helpI have created my first article, it is on Mary Styles Harris, and I am feeling a little confused. There are some problems with my references and I can't figure out how to link my article to others. I would appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you Jaymes10 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jaymes10 (talk • contribs) Any good hate mail?Oh, the usual. "Why did you delete my article about left-handed monkey wrenches? The world needs to know and you are in a conspiracy to keep it from them!!" "I am too notable, how dare you suggest I'm not? I was like totally the most liked person in my Grade 9 class!" "joe is so a big poo hed, i know him personaly, leve my articel alon you ashole". The detritus that clings to people who do new page patrol. What about yourself? Accounting4Taste:talk 17:25, 1 December 2007 (UTC) 76.189.82.146Thanks for that. I don't think I've even added anything to the DH page, just corrected spelling, grammar, punctuation and vocabulary. Therequiembellishere 21:56, 1 December 2007 (UTC) Block of BeautifulamazingalmostcompletleyfabulousHi, GlassCobra. I am confused. Why did you block Beautifulamazingalmostcompletleyfabulous (talk · contribs · email) with account creation disabled? I noticed as I was browsing Special:Ipblocklist that the auto block feature blocked another account. Also, why block the account in the first place? The account name is, indeed, long, but it is not a particularly confusing or random username - I, for one, could easily remember and associate it with a particular editor. --Iamunknown 01:23, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
Schools and deletionHey, GlassCobra. I was just wondering, how big/hot is the topic of deletion of schools, school boards, and the like? Thanks in advance, — NovaDog — (contribs) 03:14, 2 December 2007 (UTC) AdoptionHello, I am quite new in Wikipedia and would like to be adopted.--Idontknow610 14:32, 2 December 2007 (UTC) RE: YakyakyakI did, but it was just so pretty! =) I'd seen other users have it in the past, and I decided, yeah, I do that, so let's add it! I added in the mouse=over that I was inspired by its use on your page. нмŵוτнτ 17:15, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
ThanksThanks for closing the Bondstars MfD so quick!--Phoenix-wiki (talk · contribs) 20:43, 2 December 2007 (UTC) Thanks for saving the article that I placed the hang-on for. I've notice that you've been dropping in to check up on the article, so I wanted to let you know that I will be able to work on it further, however not today. I will try to find some reliable third-party sources in the near future, hopefully tomorrow or Tuesday. Thank you once again and happy editing! Icestorm815 21:13, 2 December 2007 (UTC) I think I fixed the template so that it shouldn't add userpages to the indef blocked templates category (and I also moved it to the "uw" namespace). By the way, could you semi-protect Template:Uw-uhblock like all the other uw templates. For some reason it's the only one that's fully protected. I think this is a mistake.--Avant Guard 21:37, 2 December 2007 (UTC) George W Bush DUIIs there a problem with using this term?--Dr who1975 17:23, 3 December 2007 (UTC) Revolution motherThanks, yeah, I found it. This editor and I have a long, long history. His article was speedied eight times and I took it to RfD, where it was deleted and salted under every variant spelling available (by the closing admin). He appealed to me for help; I said I would try, although there wasn't much hope that anything would work. He decided that that meant I was writing the article for him and shepherding it through deletion review, and I disabused him of that notion. I told him where to read up about what to do and left him to it. Now, weeks later, he's back with a bunch of MySpace links that he thinks are going to get him somewhere. I assessed them all for him a few minutes ago. Unfortunately, it's given me the idea that the lead singer may actually have some notability (he's also a pro skateboarder), and any article under that name hasn't been salted... If you have anything to offer, you'd be very, very welcome. The editor's attitude has changed a bit, I think (a bit too late for the salt process, though) and I'm trying to help, but this is not my milieu and I may be lacking knowledge that someone younger can offer (I loathe his kind of music). Suggestions gratefully received. Accounting4Taste:talk 22:37, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
Comments about Ybor City, Tampa, FloridaHi, a friend told me you had offered to help with a few concerns I (as well as a few other editors) have with the Ybor City, Tampa, Florida article. We have tried to address this issues politely via the talk page, but we haven't (asof yet) had our concerns handled in a mature, rational manner. I posted my concerns about the article and its WP:OWNer on Talk:Ybor City, Tampa, Florida#My concerns with this article. I know it's a bit tl;dr, but would you mind having a look? I'd appreciate any input! Thanks :) - Eulerskunk ♫ 22:51, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
Please talk to User:81.159.104.55He started out as a good editor, but "subtlety" (they apparently don't know the meaning of the word) added vandalism to the Ali Abdullah Saleh page here. After a brief argument, he did a minor incsult, but this is absolutely unacceptable and extremely childish. Therequiembellishere 00:37, 4 December 2007 (UTC) Signpost updated for December 3rd, 2007.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy).

Music2611 -- 13:24, 5 December 2007 (UTC) AdviceHello, GlassCobra. I'm coming to you with a question because I know you have far more experience on Wikipedia than I do. I do new page patrol quite often, and a few days ago a speedy deletion tag was placed on an article called The Stupid Show. The user who created it has now recreated it in another article called The Super Stupid Stuff Show, but this time has indicated that the article will be developed in the following week. Is it appropriate to nominate it for speedy deletion again? Thanks, — Yavoh 03:26, 6 December 2007 (UTC) CompassHi Glass, I updated it like you asked but felt a little uneasy as marking people out as "Authoritarian" etc. I could not find any better articles except Left-wing politics, Right-wing politics and Centrism, and used this for both the economic measure and the social measure. If you have better ideas, let me know. --sony-youthpléigh 21:22, 6 December 2007 (UTC) sigIs this better? I dorftrottel I talk I 07:33, December 7, 2007 WP:NOR protectionWould you consider unprotecting the page, possibly with a proviso against edit warring over the dispute tag? Vassyana has made some reasonable suggestions that seem to have general consensus, and I accidentally edited the page today before remembering and reverting myself. — Carl (CBM · talk) 00:03, 8 December 2007 (UTC) EpicFlame blockI just noticed that User:EpicFlame was indef blocked by you a couple of weeks back. Is there any chance you can explain the rationale to me? On the surface, it appears that he has been blocked without warning. The block log says that he was blocked for harassment, but I can't find any evidence of harassment (I note, however, that there were edits after the block was placed that are clearly inappropriate). -- Mark Chovain 03:29, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
There's also a topic about this at WP:ANI#EpicFlame block. EVula // talk // ☯ // 08:44, 10 December 2007 (UTC) Thanks a whole lot!Hey GlassCobra, thanks a lot. I am DoctorRob1234. I was wondering how to ask an administrator to block someone. can you plEs tell me? thanks. Anyway, thanks 4 stopping me from accidentally vandilizing anyone with a block attempt. A new user, Doctorrob1234 19:09, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
ThanksThanks for reverting vandalism to my user page. Since you marked User:Plaingets as a sockpuppet, I thought you may want to know that User:Cf35 and User:Cf37 also used the same signature vandalism, and may very well be sockpuppets of the same vandal too. Again thanks! --Nehwyn (talk) 08:45, 11 December 2007 (UTC) ThanksThanks for rescuing my user page from the vandal yesterday Brookie :) - he's in the building somewhere!

Special thanks go to Epbr123 for nominating me and Pedro for the offer of help.
I am honoured by the trust placed in me by the community. I hope to repay this by the wise use of the tools, which I intend to use gradually. Mop & bucket is on the Christmas list - honest.
