Your userpage
Hi. Is this edit vandalism? I wasn't sure so I didn't revert it. AstroHurricane001 17:54, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, btw or he might have read your name in many languages subpage. AstroHurricane001 00:38, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Hello, Reywas92. Thanks for your 'correct edit' on my user-home page. Though your intentions were good, Wikipedia frowns upon a user editing another user's page. PS- glad ya noticed my 2007 Predictions. GoodDay 23:14, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Reywas92, could you please remove that 'New Messages' notifier. For some reason, it directs back to my page. GoodDay 23:51, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Hope you don't think I'm grouchy. GoodDay 20:43, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- After reviewing my page, I found your minor-edits were correct (so I re-added the comma). In future, feel free to make any grammar/spelling corrections you wish (where ever I post). Believe me my spelling is very questionable. PS- please, though you haven't done so, don't add any diacritics. GoodDay 21:00, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
- Hello, I've learned the 'joke' bar, directs to any 'personal pages' not just mine. I'd though I was a random 'joke' victim. Sorry to have bothered you about the joke bar. GoodDay 18:24, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Where you live
That's funny that you live in fishers you know why?my grandparents live there! My cousins also live nearby (I forget exactly which town). My mom grew up there before moving to Flushing, MI, where I currently live. Small world isn't it? but I wouldn't want to paint it...(steve wright) --tennisman sign here! 22:28, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- My cousins are James, Harrison, and Helen Willman, and they are 14 year old twins and (I believe(I haven't seen them in awhile)) a 13-year-old. I doubt that you know them (they have odd parents) but if you do that would be hilarious. --tennisman sign here! 22:54, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- Yes it would. Oh well. Life goes on. --tennisman sign here! 22:57, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
Autograph books
Hello {R92}
I have been called "curt" before. I don't mean to be, but I like to just get to the point. If I sound like a jerk just let me know, because it's not on purpose.
I've got a lot of subpages, some with groovy signatures and everything. I'm not averse to having fun, or building community. B. J. Fogg has shown what we all knew anyway: Making things fun via quasi-random positive feedback is what makes sites like Flickr and MySpace thrive when ties to improving the site. Emphasis original: Improving the site.
The autograph books in the longer term do not do that. They are just too easy, a quasi-viral meme that will grow rapidly in some sectors of the community. It's easy to make and participate in the "get lots of signatures" race, which means that: 1) Placing ever-larger numbers of sigs in other people's books to get them to sign yours will happen, leading to B) Ever-greater dilution of the value of an individual signature. Can you close your eyes and name ten of the twenty people who've signed yours? In very short order the "fun-nes" of this will be killed off by its own success, but the practice will probably stagger on, replicating itself in neophytes for ages.
If I asked you to request deletion of your autograph page via {{db}} would you consider it? I'll even be your wiki-slave and clean up and add references to one article of your choice in exchange.
Happy Wikipedia Day!
On January 15, 2007, Wikipedia turned six-years-old. According to statistics, Wikipedia has around 1,500,000 articles and Wikipedians have made 104,000,000 edits. The millionth article was Jordanhill railway station, created on March 2, 2006.
Wikipedia has moved from an Alexa rank of 20 to a rank of 12 having already briefly visited rank 8 (current rank). Happy editing!
Motto of the day template
Recently you reverted {{Motd}} back to bold italics. However, I expressed my concerns here that bold italics might not be such a good idea. Could you open a discussion on Wikipedia talk:Motto of the day expressing your view, so that others may have a say in the matter? I had another idea, which I expressed here, that you may want to look at. --Tewy 02:25, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- Scratch that; I'll open a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Motto of the day#Text rendering (again). Feel free to participate. --Tewy 02:33, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
Regarding the Yellow Box at the Top of the Page
We have a saying on Wikipedia. I know it's on the Internet, probably in Wikipedia - that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again. :) .V. (talk) 22:23, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for the barnstar. I love trivia pages - they're fun. But sometimes they oversimplify things, so that's why I put the wikilinks in, so people can find more information on the topics. RinkWorks is a fun site for trivia and humour of that kind. I also have some trivia files I collected a few years ago - I'm not sure where I got most of it from and I'm not sure how accurate some of the files are (with the exception of scrabble trivia), but they're fun to read. If you want them just give me a shout by e-mail and I'll send them as attachments. Graham87 01:22, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks again, you've got mail. I didn't contribute much to getting Asperger Syndrome featured - though I did see through two featured article reviews of it. I mostly do copyediting there and cleanup of vandalism, linkspam and original research. That's what I do on most Wikipedia articles - I'm a bit of a perfectionist so I don't work on many articles. I love working on Wikipedia - it's good for learning new things and it has made me more confident with writing. Graham87 02:51, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Message you left on my talk page
Eh???? Rmkf1982 | Talk 21:58, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
- Oh right - sorry. Looked at the watchlist and must have got mixed up, thought you were trying to tell me something. Tried getting that page protected yesterday but was told there wasn't enough activity / vandalism on it to warrant it. thanks. Rmkf1982 | Talk 22:15, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
Hi. This page has been vandalised again by User talk:205.202.195.116 and I see you have already issued a final warning. --BlackJack | talk page 22:13, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Super bowl edits
The Baltimore Colts won Superbowl V as confirmed with Superbowl. Please don't experiment with the edits like you did here. Thank you. Real96 03:51, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
- I was confused, as they lost Super Bowl III. Reywas92TalkSigs 02:20, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
- But, they won Superbowl V. There was a lot of vandalism during that time period (at a fast pace, too), and it was hard to differentiate between the vandalism edits. No hard feelings. Real96 03:25, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Pi
Thank you for telling me your score on my Userpage under the pi section. I thought nobody was ever going to. And by the way, I'm reading a book titled A History of Pi. Very similar books (:
Well, I guess they're the same book then.

You made an edit to the British National Party article earlier. Your edit came during a period when an anonymous editor was making dozens of changes, all of which have been reverted, though yours was left in. I have since removed your edit because you gave given no grounds for making them. The page is highly controversial and there is a lively debate on the associated talk page. Please look at the debate before considering whether to reinstate your edits and give reasons for them that we can discuss. Personally, I found most of the changes you made unwarranted, other editors might not agree, but given the nature of the article it would be a good idea to discuss major changes like this before making them. Emeraude 12:45, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
My apologies - I completely misread the log and thought you had changed large chunks of text. I now see you only changed date formats. Apologies again. Emeraude

Thank you for your edit to Holiday World!
Thank you so much for coming in as an outsider and editing the page. An unbiased standpoint can really help out sometimes. I was going to drop it anyway and stop watching it, but I'm glad it's fixed now. Thanks again! --pIrish 15:49, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
Someone could still link to it, so I think it ought to remain as a dab page. -- Prove It (talk) 18:42, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
I noticed that you have been reverting edits to Morocco (Epcot) involving adding unhelpful maps and flags. All 11 of the Epcot country articles have been vandalized like that but with the respectful flags. I presume the same person is doing it, but it has been done by different IPs, one in a completely different range. The person must think he's helping but he isn't. He can't really be blocked, and reverting all 11 is getting annoying. What do you suggest? Thanks! Reywas92Talk 20:46, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- True. Just revert on the spot. -- FayssalF - Wiki me up ® 19:15, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Can changes be discussed on the talk page BEFORE they are implemented? As somebody pointed out, every change to the template itself effects hundreds of articles. CovenantD 01:42, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
