Your VandalProof Application

Dear Masterjamie/Archive 1,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.1 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is Sorry minimum requirement is 250 mainspace edits. Please try again when you have more experience. Thank you . Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. - Glen ^T_C (Stollery) 19:31, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Armenia

I am sorry but you have many mistakes in your article of Turkey. 60% of Turkey is rightfully Armenia.And Mount Ararat is An Armenian Mountain. Please revise your article

Vandal warnings

Thank you very much for leaving warning messages on vandals' talk pages. It makes it much easier to block the deserving if they've been properly warned first. Please remember though to use {{subst:test1}}, e.g., intead of just {{test1}}.

It looks like you're using some extra tools in your vandal fight. I don't know if they have help for leaving warning messages, but you might want to look at my warning toolbox. It helps you to quickly and easily leave an appropriate message with just a click or two.

Keep up the good fight. --Kbh3^rdtalk 16:00, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

My apologies

In response to your message here, that IP address is my school's. Some student must have made the edit while researching a project, but I don't know who. I apologize for his/her actions.

I don't know if Wikipedia displays the IP of edits, but if it does, I'm writing this from home, not school, as leaving this message would be against school rules.

Subst

When using template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. --Cyde Weys 01:33, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Stress?

Perfectly percolated coffee, Esperanza's own blend.

I hope you're feeling better soon. Let me know if I can help you with anything admin-related. :) --Fang Aili ^說嗎? 03:28, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Thank you so much, after taking a brief wikibreak, I'm better now. -- Masterjamie 21:51, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Groovy. :) --Fang Aili ^說嗎? 14:39, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Thankyou

Thankyou for the welcome Masterjamie. I am glad you introduced me to Wikipedia as it has helped me to learn more. Now I have joined I will contribute on the subjects that have not been done. (Mum) Little-Miss-Scare-All 15:13, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Your edit to Dog

Your recent edit to Dog was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept my humble creator's apologies – if you bring it to the attention of the bot's owner, we may be able to improve its behavior. Click here for frequently asked questions about the bot and this warning. // Tawkerbot2 23:48, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

I have reported this false positive here. -- Masterjamie 00:01, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Don't feel bad, it's just a robot. You did the right thing. Mak (talk) 00:02, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, what triggered it was the fact that it was all lowercase replacement, the bot should have got the original vandalism which makes it even odder, anyways, I've stricken the warnings, I hope thats ok, sorry about the message -- Tawker 06:16, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Don't worry Tawker, You're forgiven :) -- Masterjamie 11:26, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update

As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower ^háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
