Thank you for the words of encouragement. Erechtheus (talk) 21:52, 30 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the gentlemanly/womanly manner in which you go about this web page and encourage quality in editing, e.g. The Snow Queen. I also liked your pointing out the article on cruft, which is something to be avoided and corrected.--Drboisclair (talk) 13:15, 1 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thank you, and a clarification of intent

edit

Thanks very much for your input re the discussion about WP:N as it relates to FOSS, and specifically NoteEdit. Just one clarification re your comment, "declining to improve an article on the grounds that it has inherent notability to a subset of Wikipedians isn't likely to help it, sorry." My apologies if that is how it came across, I decided not to work on the article itself because a) I'm not familiar enough with NoteEdit, and would certainly make mistakes, and more importantly b) I was hoping to encourage a wider discussion, and felt that an unchanged article would help focus attention on the process rather than on the individual quality of a single article. I hope that is a clearer explanation of my intent.

Best regards,

Aha! I'm sorry if I misinterpreted you. I sincerely hope NoteEdit is saved. Let me know if there's anything I can do. Aylad ['ɑɪlæd] 15:41, 9 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

RE: Main Page Talk

To me, it's blatant out and out trolling. But I've put it back for you. Regards,  GARDEN  14:25, 16 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Collapsed the trolling though, because that's obviously what it is. Left the feeding in plain sight though.  GARDEN  14:28, 16 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Handwritten note

edit

Ugh, sorry, forgot to uncheck the automatic templating box. Anyway, it's not really a good idea to have a duplicate copy of an article in article space; if you need to do some sandbox-type stuff, why not copy the article into your userspace sandbox? It could be confusing to have two articles that say the same thing in mainspace. Writ Keeper 13:22, 15 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

I meant to put it in Userspace. It's been a long time since I did much editing and I forgot the ropes. Sorry! Please delete the page immediately. Aylad ['ɑɪlæd] 13:24, 15 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
Nah, no worries. It's not the first time someone did that, and I bet it won't be the last. :) I'll stick a g7 on there too, to maybe get it fast-tracked a little bit. Thanks! Writ Keeper 13:26, 15 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
