Quick note - feel free to delete when done reading

Note that the replace list is actually updated daily - sometimes many times a day - to fix problems and add new words. These problems can be important.

Please check for a new version each and every time you use AWB. Add a bookmark to the top of your favorites. That will ensure you always have the best, most complete, bug-free version. Or you can get the same exact version I'm using at that second by using Subversion. You get to see how I work, change, and develop the list, edit by edit, since it shows you the differences between versions. All old versions of the list can be shown so you can see the progress the list has made. If you need any help setting this up, it's actually really easy, I'd be glad to help you out.

Download the latest releases all the time from the project page. Please update right now. Several problems have been found and fixed, and many many words have now been added.
Current version as of this message: 0.0.4.9 --mboverload @

Hi Yank: I had to go away for a few days, but I'm back. I just edited a piece called Henry Orenstien (a poker player and an philanthropist. I hope that is alright. I happened it by accident and saw too many errors that I couldn't let go. BudBud {{talk}} 01:25, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cross-namespace redirects

Wow

Your support is really stacking up - even before your request is formally filed. Congratulations! =) (PS: You might want to look at Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/Yanksox. I bet it'll give you a smile.) Srose (talk) 16:35, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your upcoming RfA

Hi there! Shall I go ahead and remove my co-nomination? I got Crzrussian's e-mail, and I'll be happy to, but seeing as it's your RfA, I'll just wait for your word. Cheers and good luck! hoopydink^{Conas tá tú?} 20:29, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My nom wasn't adding particularly much, so I removed it; it certainly will be better for me simply to support, and I'll happily do so. Btw (and I hope you'll not mind my noting this on your talk page), I laughed quite heartily upon receiving your e-mail advising me to check my e-mail (I did, to be sure, gather what you meant...). :) Joe 01:34, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey I was wondering why you called your actions on that AfD "completely unacceptable". You did absolutely nothing wrong, and I can't help but think that deferring to W. Marsh will only harm your RfA. I, and other users supported you on that AfD and you were victorious. AdamBiswanger1 03:18, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"adding opinion accidentally removed"

Whoops. Funny I didn't get an edit conflict; oh, well, at least you noticed it. Thanks for fixing it for me! fuddlemark (befuddle me!) 14:32, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your RfA

Hey Yanksox,

Since our respective RfAs were listed within hours of each other, it looks like we'll be neighbors for the next week or so on the RfA board. I just wanted to say g'luck on your RfA. Take care. :) --Firsfron of Ronchester 17:39, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Now we're really neighbors. ;) OK, I won't waste your time any further... --Firsfron of Ronchester 18:00, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Silly! That's baking sugar, not washing sugar. The brown stuff is what I use on all my whites!--Firsfron of Ronchester 18:05, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Weekly AWB spellcheck changes - 0.0.8 and uberness

^{You are getting this weekly update because you are signed up on the spamlist for updates about mboverload's magical automatic typofixing settings for AWB}

Good news, I now have a new, fancy, professional wikipedia project page (READ EVERY LINE ITS A REQUIREMENT!!!) and an easy shortcut: [WP:RETF]. I have added every g word and EVERY variation of each word. No, I'm not kidding. I used the dictionary to look for every possible variation. Took FOREVER. =)
I have a cool new logo, too!
Bill Gates has offered me $1.3 million in venture capital. I'll be taking him up on that offer.
Important notice: It has been brought to my attention that several users were unable to open the zip files because they were "corrupted". They weren't corrupted, just using a compression style different than the crappy extractor built in to XP uses. From now all all releases will be checked against the XP extractor. Sorry guys.
Don't worry about the download size - it doesn't mean anything. It's the extracted size that matters.
Tell your buddies.
0.0.8 is out - go update now.
John Connor thinks RegExTypoFix is the precursor to Skynet. Unfortunately for him, mboverload can dodge bullets...and molecules of tear gas.

"Animal cookies" AfD

FYI... I changed your AfD on "Animal Cookies" to a speedy delete (it was deleted). It was a non-notable, unsigned band. -- Gogo Dodo 00:03, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

which team?
