Water cure

In my opinion, this article needs renaming to place it more prominently and more accurately. Please see: Talk:Water_cure_(therapy)#Disambiguation_or_renaming. Thanks. --Kudpung (talk) 00:35, 3 June 2009 (UTC)--Kudpung (talk) 00:23, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Mallard indeed

Yes, of all the locomotives my userpage could have been vandalised with I get the Mallard; how very odd! Even Thomas the Tank Engine would have been more witty... Coldmachine 07:32, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Tut tut, you forgot WP:NFCC#9! Coldmachine 08:42, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Peek-a-boo

I ain't seen ya around for awhile. Were's ya been? GoodDay (talk) 16:12, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

I've been doing well. GoodDay (talk) 19:12, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Juice Plus in altmed

On Nov. 17 2008 you added this category to the Juice Plus article. This seems, from a cursory look through the category, to be the only brand of dietary supplement assigned to this category. The rest seem to be generic types of alternative / complementary treatments, people involved in the same and a few odd other bits and pieces (e.g. Quackwatch). Can you remember why you put this one article in this category (and not the many others competing in the same market)? IMO it doesn't belong there, since it is neither a medicine nor a therapy, neither 'alternative' nor 'complementary' but just a brand of food supplement. Thanks. --TraceyR (talk) 22:58, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Adoption Request

Hi there, I'm looking for adoption, have been on wikipedia (as a basic user) for a while now, have delved into voting on featured pictures, just wanting to learn more about editing, creating articles and such. Plus I love cats. It's a win win situation :D. I have to confess I'm not 100% sure on how these talk/message things work, so you'll have to forgive me if I dont see whatever that you've replied until it's been explained. Silvestra (talk) 23:46, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

• Well I'm not really sure what to start with. Editting articles I would guess at, just not sure where to start or with what. Silvestra (talk) 20:04, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Articles for deletion nomination of Spermophagia

I have nominated Spermophagia, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Spermophagia. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Drmies (talk) 17:25, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

• Haha, well, "created"--how about that? Drmies (talk) 17:32, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

AN/I

You might want to swing by Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#User:Tohd8BohaithuGh1_rollback_rights. Editors have noted issues back as far as 5 months ago.--Crossmr (talk) 08:05, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

English Qabalah

If you want those edits to stay, you'll have to check the page frequently for reversion by Eky's sparring partner. Dan (talk) 01:16, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

Re: Tony Robbins

Hey there!

I'm Screwball, and I've been very passionate about the NLP/seduction community. I find Tony Robbins to be especially interesting, and I'm happy to see that you at one time were contributing heavily to his article.

Take a look at the page and let me know what you think. You input really helps. My main focus has been on adding real content to the page. All facts, all referenced material. Tell me what you think. And feel free to put your contributions to the article.

Thanks so much! And I'm sorry to see what happened to your Ross Jeffries page.--Screwball23 talk 00:50, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject Running

You had proposed having the project join the quality assessment campaign. I have posted a suggestion that the project do that and was hoping that you could help with that effort. Are you still interested? Thanks. Racepacket (talk) 04:50, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

• I have added the required categories and modified the Running project template. Again, I welcome your participation. Racepacket (talk) 12:14, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Greetings, Sticky...

My god, we haven't spoken in absolutely ages! How are you doing? I left for a while, but I now realise with a system comes a set of rules. I am hopefully going to pass my adoption at some point and I am trying to get references into my edits. I'm already volunteering for the Mediation Cabal...it's nice to speak to you again.--Editor510 21:19, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Johanna Budwig

Someone is proposing that the English Johanna Budwig article should be deleted. You might wish to offer your opinion. Nunquam Dormio (talk) 10:29, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Shaaaame.

Same reason I left. What you've got to understand with those people is that they aren't powerful if you challenge their power. Take them to a friendly admin, and the corrupt user will be dealt with. Defrag is an example of who to take them to. Anyway, I'll try my best. I never thought I'd pass :D

Glad you replied, and a farewell for now,

--Editor510 09:04, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Misplaced Pages:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:46, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

I've done it.

I made some edits backed up with proof, one of which has an ISBN *audience goes 'Ooooooohhh!'* So, do I pass now?--Editor510 20:02, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you so much!

I spent all night preparing my graduation speech, so here goes:

No, not really, my speech is actually this:

		The Adopt-a-User Barnstar
		For always being there, no matter what the circumstances, I bestow upon you this, Sticky Parkin, Mentor, WikiSloth and WikiRose :) Editor510

--Editor510 20:03, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

PS, I didn't really spend all night on that :P--Editor510 20:41, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Birmingham Meet up

See here. Late notice I know, please make a note on that page not here. Please pass this on. This will happen. Victuallers (talk) 09:32, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi, it's been a while.

Hi Sticky. I see you haven't been active in a while, but either have I until recently, so I thought I'd give my former adoptive wikiparent (whatever you'd call it) a quick hello. - Unforgiven24 |_Contribs 18:30, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

Brum meet

All the UK Wiki board were there and Marketing Birmingham and PigsOnTheWing (who is now doing wiki work in Bristol for us). Coffeee was great, but we were a bit thin on Brum Wikipedians. If you're looking for a role then you could help with the Wright Challenge - even if you have no language skills. Thx for the reply Victuallers (talk) 13:12, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

You should come hang out with us on the internetz!

Hi! I wanted to let you know that we have created an IRC channel for "countering systemic bias one new editor at a time", aka closing the gender gap! Come hang out at #wikimedia-gendergap if that subject interests you. We hope this channel can serve as a safe haven to hang out, talk about Wiki, brainstorming, increasing women's participation in Wikimedia, article alerts and foster friendships. I hope you join us! (And if you need any IRC help, just let me know!) See you there! SarahStierch (talk) 22:21, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

The file File:Foodscropped.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unused, low-res, no obvious use
