User Page fix

Thank you for your assistance. You made it look easy.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 17:25, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

It's no problem. I've had a little experience with tables (just look at my userpage), so I kind of knew what to look for. I'm still at a loss why it decided to format itself that way, though. Congrats on all those stars, by the way! Happy editing! Hersfold 17:30, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

regarding your rejection of my submitted article

I requested that a Peer Review process be initiated for SCO-Linux controversies and you rejected my request without explanation. Please advise further. Thanks. 69.140.164.142 08:02, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

I rejected your request because the Articles for Creation process is intended for the creation of articles for Misplaced Pages. Since I did not see a peer review template on the talk page of the article, I assumed you had not read the procedure at WP:PR and moved on to other submissions. Since you've come to ask about it, I will open the peer review now, but please be aware that I will not be involved in this peer review process and will not relay any messages regarding it. If you intend to continue contributing in this manner, I would highly suggest opening an account to allow you to participate more easily in these processes. Due to the volume of requests we receive daily and the amount of backlogged requests we still have to review, WP:AFC really cannot continue to create project pages such as this one. It's also not the most reliable of systems, because you risk a long delay between your request and the creation of the page, as well as getting a reviewer who doesn't really know what you're trying to do, both of which happened in this case, for which I do apologize. Thank you for seeking me out about this, and again, please strongly consider making an account. Hersfold 12:22, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply. Just as an aside--I added the {{peer review}} template to the page in question twice but both times it was removed by other users. Sorry about the misunderstanding. 69.140.164.142 17:20, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Ah, alright then. Good luck with the review. Hersfold 17:23, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

I want to leave you a message.

I am a bit new to this I am Lovetheirsish2Lovetheirish2 04:49, 8 July 2007 (UTC). and you sent me a message after I said something to Irishaye. Just to let you know I was advised by my friend about the article on "me” is full of incorrect and libelous made up stories. So I went ahead to correct it. Moreover I wrote to Wiki.com to help me take care of this, have not heard from them as of today. I am sorry to offend anyone, however I feel like my life is being made fun of, Do you know how that feels?

Please advice and help if you can Lovetheirish2 04:49, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

AFC Backlog Drive!

WikiProject AFC is holding a one month long assessment drive!
The goal of this drive is to eliminate the backlog of unreviewed articles. The drive is running from July 15, 2007 – August 15, 2007.

Awards to be won range from delicacies such as the WikiCookie to barnstars.
There is a backlog of more than one year, so start reviewing articles! Visit the drive's page and help out!

This drive was organized by GrooveDog in an attempt to terminate that nasty backlog..

DC Meetup notice

Greetings. There is going to be a Washington DC Misplaced Pages meetup on next Saturday, July 21st at 5pm in DC. Since you are listed in Category:Wikipedians_in_Maryland, I thought I'd invite you to come. I'm sorry about the short notice for the meeting. Hopefully we'll do somewhat better in that regard next time. If you can't come but want to make sure that you are informed of future meetings be sure to list yourself under "but let me know about future events", and if you don't want to get any future direct notices \(like this one\), you can list yourself under "I'm not interested in attending any others either" on the DC meetup page.--Gmaxwell 00:27, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the invite, but I won't be able to attend. I just saw the message today due to a extended trip and need some time to catch up from it. I would like to be kept advised of future such events, though. Thanks again. Hersfold 03:57, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply (and the ping, I'm normally good about that sort of thing but I missed your reply.). You should go list yourself in the "Nope but" part of the meetup page, that way we will be sure not to miss inviting you next time. --Gmaxwell 04:04, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

I just posted the reply a few minutes ago - I just like to leave pings as a sort of insurance. Thanks, I'll go list myself there before I forget. See you then, perhaps! Hersfold 04:06, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:New_Richmond_Tornado

GA holds are for no more than seven days. This article needs to be checked to see if issues were addressed bringing the article up to standards. If so, it needs to be listed. If not, it needs to be removed from GAC. Regards, LaraLove 04:49, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I thought that another reviewer re-checked for hold status candidates - I've been away for the last 10 days, so haven't been able to check up on things. I'll look it over as soon as I get a chance tomorrow, thanks for the heads-up. Hersfold 03:57, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Sorry!

Sorry to publicdomain-ify your image, I forgot that I can't actually release someone else's work! Sorry again! =P GrooveDog (talk) 03:00, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

It's no problem, it's not like it was copyrighted or anything. Thanks for fixing it, though. :-) Hersfold 03:04, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

That barnstar looks great. Thanks for designing it! GrooveDog (talk) 14:45, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Five-A Barnstar Template

is based entirely on your image AFC-Barnstar-2.png.

I'm going to add it to the BarnStar/Awards wikipedia pages as a template. First though, if you can replace it with a "sharper" version with no compression artifacts it would make for a better image. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 16:51, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
