Welcome to a peaceful weekend

Hi all, for the next 5 days, I'm requesting that this page be considered closed for renovations during The Great Misplaced Pages Dramaout. Go read up on it, it sounds fun.

I'll not be answering questions related to big picture policy, people you are mad about, things you're mad at me about, etc. I'm just gonna go write some articles. And I'm hopeful that the bug will infect you too. If you're mad about something of incredible meta importance, I recommend sleeping on it for a few days. There's nothing that I can help with which is likely to be urgent, and I think we'll all have clearer heads for solving longterm problems in the project if we just edit articles for a few days.

Usually, this is not the right page for many of the concerns that are raised here anyway, although I don't mind getting a steady sampling of what is going on. But not during the Dramaout. If you want to comment here, please be sure it's about article improvement on an article that I'm actually seen working on currently.

I haven't actually checked on who invented this idea, but I love it.--Jimbo Wales (talk) 00:20, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

I might be breaking the Dramaout rules by posting to your talk page, haha, but User:Jayron32 created the Dramaout, inspired at AN/I. User:Berean Hunter and I collaborated on this template (he actually stole my drama image, but did it nicely), which may be of vital importance to your talk page. This is a list of contributions that were done specifically by editors who chose to stay out of contentious areas for the five day period. This has to be an annual event at the very least. Law type! snype? 13:04, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
Correction: I am the inventor of this idea. See http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Misplaced Pages:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=prev&oldid=301449733 Jayron32 admits that he invented the title of the drive because it sounds better. Others may respond to this comment but I will refrain from further comment in order to concentrate on the 5 day campaign. Best of luck. User F203 (talk) 14:49, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for helping Mr Siegel with his identity problem. I'm afraid I offered my help without knowing exactly what should be done, but I found you and SqueakBox had already done something about it before I could fumble around with it. Btw, I hope I wasn't too presumptive to assume you'd be too busy to look at something like that. Clearly, I was wrong. :D Eaglizard (talk) 10:30, 18 July 2009 (UTC) PS: I sure hope the comment previous to mine is meant as a joke, tho I doubt it was. Still, you don't any manners! Classic stuff.
