Welcome back

Good to see a 2005 old-timer back in the project, and doing well in real life. If you need any help getting used to the website again let me know, as a lot has changed. Thanks Jaranda/Secret 21:50, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Ditto that; I don't recall seeing you around the first time, but it's good that you've come back. — Hex (❝?!❞) 14:15, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Fancy that!

	A baby hedgehog for you!
	Hey Ryan! No need to be jealous - here's an adorable baby hedgehog! And yeah, hi! I can't believe it's been so long - so much has changed! I keep meaning to get back on here, but just never seem to get around to it... How's your life these days? Up to anything exciting? —Celestianpower 16:05, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Periodic Table Bugbear!

Hi Acetic Acid,

                       Sorry to bother you over something so incendental as this but I was wondering if someone could please correct a slight error to the Misplaced Pages Periodic Table.  These pages are a wonderful resource I regularly enjoy using, however every time I visit the front page displaying the table I notice that several 'other non-metal' elements are incorrectly coloured as 'halogens'. Would it please be possible to resolve this nerdy bugbear of mine?!
                                Yours over-enthusiastically,  Dameon (6 October 2014). 88.144.199.216 (talk) 22:14, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

Happy Birthday Acetic Acid

introducing myself, and question

Hello, thanks for checking in and leaving a message a while ago.
I'm learning how this works in advance of needing help as I move slowly along (pls delete this if wrong). If I have a question about an edit, do I leave messages on my own talk page and tag you or post on your talk page? I only know you and one other contributor as you guys wrote on my talk page.
Thanks!

Proposed deletion of File:Essjay 666.gif

The file File:Essjay 666.gif has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
