Little helper aptly named as bearer of gifts. Cappuccino with gingerbread perfect match. MONGO hunger abated...that's a good thing! Happy Saint Lucia's Day to you too mighty Bishzilla!--MONGO 16:01, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Our conflict

Hi MONGO,

I want to try to relax our tightened relations. I don't like to be on bad terms with people even over internet. I think our debate went too personal once in a while. I don't think it's good for neither both of us, nor for aspiration of Misplaced Pages. I apologize. Since, I guess at least part of your objection to my edits might be due to misinterpretation of my motives, and possibly viewing me as an advocate for some repulsive behavior/people, which I'm definitely not, I added some information about myself and why I have currently been editing only these certain topics on my user page for anyone who might be questioning my good faith. Please, check it out. I don't want anyone to take me for as something I'm not. I also added some material as an attempt to answer one of the questions you asked on AWA talk page and to show that my views are not coming out from nowhere. Sincerely, ViperFace (talk) 20:27, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

You have been mostly writing from a very strong POV on the subject in question. As I mentioned before, modest proposals that are well balanced might work but your history of editing does not reflect that . I'm extremely busy in real life so not able to engage on that topic much now anyway.--MONGO 20:32, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Murder of Kylie Maybury

Hi Would you be interesting in helping to expand Murder of Kylie Maybury? I feel Kylie deserves better than the meagre article she has at the moment. Paul Austin (talk) 05:40, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

Nadolig hapus

Martinevans123 ... wishes you and yours:

"Nadolig Llawen a Blwyddyn Newydd Dda"


May the true spirit of Christmas bless you with warmth and peace!

Thank you very much Martin and Merry Christmas to you too!--MONGO 01:23, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

Nollaig shona duit
Best christmas and new year. Another year down, and so much more to write. Thanks for all your contribuitions and being part of the community. Hope January is at least resonabally tolerable for you. Ceoil (talk) 23:51, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for remembering me and I wish you all the same. Happy holidays!--MONGO 07:33, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

Raynolds

I'd gotten the Jerry Thompson source for a completely different reason, but it looked like you could use it. Please format the source appropriately to your style if there's any problem. I could give exact page numbers, but didn't know how you wanted to handle that. BusterD (talk) 20:35, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

Thank you kind sir! All I did was narrow down the pages a bit. Mike Cline had emailed about that source just yesterday so at least you two can find better sources than I! Much appreciated! Happy New Year!--MONGO 23:37, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
Congrats on the promotion of Raynolds to FA. Good job seeing it through --Mike Cline (talk) 22:35, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
And thank you for your contributions as well! We made an overlooked gentleman finally get the acclaim he deserves.--MONGO 23:04, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
Congrats. Good article. I am a somewhat of a history buff, but was unfamiliar with him. --rogerd (talk) 04:17, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
Nice. Great work. Hard to believe where this all started. BusterD (talk) 05:37, 9 January 2015 (UTC)
Thank you kind sirs! BusterD, you're a big player on that article what with all the expansion you did on Raynolds' military exploits...I think your efforts on that front greatly led to later additions and expansions. Happy New Year!--MONGO 13:00, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

About an SPI

O, notorious MONGO!
Since you mentioned some concerns about 68.7.95.95 (talk · contribs · WHOIS), I raised it here: Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet_investigations/Flowersforparis#15_January_2015. Your comments would be welcome. bobrayner (talk) 01:54, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Laugh out loud...thank you. Yeah, I can be a bit less than cordial when dealing with editors like that but I call it as I see it. Good show...--MONGO 02:01, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Chris Kyle

I just wanted to annoy you? And prove that I'm not afraid of the notorious MONGO. Either that or I just made an error but that would mean that I was at fault. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 15:48, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Its fine...no worries! But yes, I'm notorious!--MONGO 15:51, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Excitement

I seem to be missing all the excitement from the IP and his love notes. Just saw email alerts about it. Thanks to my talkpage stalkers for the reverts!--MONGO 05:16, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

He called me a former admin! That's as close to an admin as I've ever been. I guess the year block on his proxy IP account hurt. --DHeyward (talk) 07:08, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
You're not missing much..it's more fun not being an admin! I was just about to get cordial with him/her/it too...--MONGO 07:12, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Your Entry

Would you like to write a couple of words, like four-five lines about William F. Raynolds for its entry in the Signpost? You are obviously the expert on this theme... Hafspajen (talk) 14:48, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

  • William F. Raynolds (1820-1894) was a civil engineer and graduate of the United States Military Academy who served in both the Mexican–American War and was a brevetted brigadier general for meritorious service in the American Civil War. During the American occupation of Mexico, in 1848 he led the first successful mountaineering expedition to the summit of Pico de Orizaba (18,620 feet (5,680 m)), inadvertently setting an American alpine record that was not surpassed for 50 years. In 1859, he was in charge of the Raynolds Expedition, the first U.S. government sponsored expedition to the region that later became Yellowstone National Park. Heavy snowpack from the previous winter forced the expedition south of Yellowstone and they became the first government sponsored party to enter Jackson Hole and survey the Teton Range. Reynolds designed and surpervised numerous lighthouse projects and several of those lighthouses are still in use and are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
@Hafspajen:...hope that works and isn't too flowery.--MONGO 16:15, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
It is perfect. Love it!! Hafspajen (talk) 16:17, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Cool beans! Thanks for asking for my input! Have a good one!--MONGO 16:19, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Happy tenth anniversary, notorious MONGO!

Here's the party! Let the explosions begin! darwinbish 20:43, 18 January 2015 (UTC).

Yeah!!! I am ready to party! Just think...can Misplaced Pages handle another TEN YEARS of the dreaded MONGO?--MONGO 20:45, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Congrats from the notorious infoboxes criminal! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:47, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
We are all notorious for something! Thank you!--MONGO 21:02, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Ten years? Is that all? Talk to me when you hit 10 years 5 months! :) Congrats MONGO! Guettarda (talk) 20:49, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
You are super ancient! I missed your joining the geriatric committee so happy 10th plus to you too!--MONGO 21:02, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Congratulations my friend and thanks for all your help. Best regards, David, David J Johnson (talk) 21:03, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
And many thanks to you as well!--MONGO 21:17, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Rock on till the break of dawn with Eadweard Muybridge and Laurel and Hardy! Bishonen | talk 21:11, 18 January 2015 (UTC).
Thank you kind human person! Very cute!--MONGO 00:06, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Happy tenth birthday from me, MONGO. You are younger than I thought, though; here was me thinking you'd already reached the ten-year milestone here! :D Acalamari 21:15, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

I know...ten years of the dreaded MONGO is like an eternity! Best wishes!--MONGO 23:19, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Yes, and a happy tenth from me, too. Best wishes, Walter Siegmund (talk) 05:58, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Thank you wise sage of the Pacific Northwest!--MONGO 06:37, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
