Hi

I was here to get some help regarding StatusBot but found out you are having an operation. So I would just wish you a Speedy Recovery for now. Get Well Soon!  UzEE  13:11, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

  Speedy Delete - I mean, er, I hope you have a speedy recovery! :) CWii(Talk|Contribs) 20:57, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Thank you all. — E talk 12:35, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Two protections

Hi, both Jupiter and Bill Cosby have been seeing an extraordinarily high amount of vandalism for the entire past month, with essentially nothing good coming from the IPs: [1] [2]. Additionally, both have been protected before for much longer time periods. Would you please consider protecting these two for a longer time than 5 days? The Evil Spartan (talk) 13:09, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Both have been changed to 3 weeks. — E talk 13:13, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
Thank you. The Evil Spartan (talk) 13:15, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Back operation?

Sounds pretty awful. Hope you're back up in no time! :) All the best. ~ Riana 13:28, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I'll get there. Thanks for your support :) — E talk 13:32, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

  Done! Tell me what you think. And I hope you recover from your back surgery soon! Cheers, ChetblongT C 19:52, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

usurp request on de.WV

This is about your msg here: unfortunately that user E has made an edit already: contributions. So that will probably not work (since also E is a very general character it can even stand as shortname for my real name :-( ). Unfortunately that user has not activated email - how about writing on his talk page ?

We have a page where to request usurpations: v:de:Wikiversity:Benutzerkonto umbennen if you wanna try anyway. ----Erkan Yilmaz (talk ?, wiki blog) 09:21, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Besides this, perhaps the stewards might help you more: meta:Steward requests/Usurpation, ----Erkan Yilmaz (talk ?, wiki blog) 10:21, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Yep, I've been advised it is a bug in the system as crats/stewards cannot rename/usurp the accounts that have already been unified in the system. — E talk 04:04, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

HBC AIV helperbot5

The bot appears to have stopped working on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism/TB2 - it's no longer removing blocked reports. Thanks. Hersfold (t/a/c) 18:09, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Seems to be working now, might have been a problem with writing data to the servers. — E talk 04:01, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
