This Talk Page

If you leave a message for me here, I will probably reply on your talk page unless you ask me not to do so,

Trying to follow discussions between users can be important, and it becomes so much easier to work out who said what to whom, when and why if those discussions are available in one place.

If I leave a message, or a reply to you on your User talk page, I will reflect that here to keep the record of our discussions less fragmented.

Thank You for your time!

I just wanted to say thank you, for checking up what people write and for fixing the bugs, fixing the bitchings and the malicious comments.

You made my day! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.13.160.120 (talk • contribs) 21:08, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Why "briefly"?

I was glad to see you back to editing. Your vacations have been much longer than people in my part of the world usually have! --Ghirla ^-трёп- 14:25, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi Ghirla, nice to hear from you. "Briefly", because I am having an extended break due to many real life issues that require my dedicated time. I still keep an eye on matters here though, especially my watchlist and larger issues such as the now current ArbCom elections. It's important to me to express my views on these matters, hence my brief return. Although I am not contributing much (or anything) at the moment I am still committed to WP and will return to productive status soon, most likely in the new year.

Best wishes. --Cactus.man ✍ 15:03, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

OK, I wish you good luck with you real life and hope you will be back soon. And merry Christmas in case I won't see you until then. --Ghirla ^-трёп- 15:06, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for that, see you in the new year ... or around the ArbCom pages :) --Cactus.man ✍ 15:10, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Your pictures of the Old Course at St Andrews

Hello, can you upload them to Commons? I'd like to use them in de:Old Course. -- ulim, 22:54, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi ulim, thanks for your message. The photos are already on Commons:

Hope that helps. --Cactus.man ✍ 02:23, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes, thank you very much. The images weren't in the Golf category tree, that's why I didn't find them on Commons. Could have found them by name, though... guess I was sleeping :)

I categorized them now. --ulim, 17:15, 8. December 2006 (UTC)

A Smile on My Face

Hi Greg, I just dropped by to say thanks for your work on the WikiWorld cartoon strips, great stuff and long may it continue. I look forward to regular postings in the Signpost to add some colour, humour and a welcome smile to the site. I enjoyed the strips you've done so far very much indeed, (the veangeful pet skunk image is my personal highlight so far). It's a wonderful idea for Wikipedia, keep up the good work. Best wishes. --Cactus.man ✍ 13:04, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, Cactus.man. Since I've built up a small stockpile of comics (as you've seen), I'm planning to present a mix of new and existing comics in the Signpost for the first few weeks, just to get things rolling. I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying the project. --Greg Williams 13:22, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Gertrude Peabody Residence Hall

I had a page posted under Gertrude Peabody Residence Hall and it was taken down. I read that you might be able to provide me with the text of the page. I don't know at this point if I will repost in some fashion... mostly likely not since it doesn't meet the critera... however I was wondering if there was a way to get the text posted somehow so I can keep a copy for historical purposes. They deleted it before I had a chance to do so. I read on here that you might be able to assist in that way. Could you kindly let me know. Thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 155.247.83.61 (talk • contribs) 02:13, 8 January 2007 (UTC).

Thanks for your message re the above deleted article. I see it was deleted after an AfD and there were concerns raised about copyright violations. In such circumstances it is not appropriate to have copies of the material residing in user space. I would be happy to email you the text for your own records, and to work on if you wish to repost the article in an improved fashion without copyright infringements. Bear in mind that an article reposted which is a "substantially identical copy" of the deleted article will be liable to be speedily deleted under criteria G4. Another option for you would be to request undeletion at Deletion Review, although looking at the article history and the comments at the AfD, I doubt if this would be successful. I hope this helps, and let me know if you wish me to email the text. --Cactus.man ✍ 18:30, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
