You semi-protected ] over a year ago. Looking through the edit history there doesn't really seem to be much controversial at the time, aside from one ip user that was persistently vandalising for short period. An indefinite semi-protect seems a bit heavy-handed - could you consider unprotecting now? ] (]) 21:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC) | |||

I am sorry to be blunt, but your performance as a delegate with responsibility for choosing TFAs is becoming a cause of increasing concern. I don't know exactly what duties Raul has delegated to you; I do know that repeatedly, editors are being given less than an hour's notice of an article's impending appearance - and are still instructed to inform Raul if the date is inappropriate, to check the blurb and to deal with any problems with the text, etc. These instructions are ridiculous, given 59 minutes to carry them out. Nearly all articles need a degree of polish and preparation before a main page appearance, the more so if they are older FAs, and I would say that as a ''minimum'', three days' notice should be given, or even longer; why is that so difficult to manage? I see that at the top of this page you announce that you are busy in real life and "I cannot promise that I will fulfill your request in a timely manner, if at all". Does that not suggest that this job, which requires regular attention, should be given to someone else? ] (]) 15:07, 11 August 2012 (UTC) | |||

Due to real-life commitments, I cannot be nearly as active on Misplaced Pages as I once was. If you need to contact me about something, please send an email to ensure a speedy response. In addition, I don't do much on Misplaced Pages anymore aside from performing duties as FL director, TFA delegate, or carrying out administrative tasks; if you would like help with Misplaced Pages tasks not related to these areas you would be better off asking a more active editor. Thanks. Dabomb87 (talk) |

UK Product Treemap from MIT/HARVARD -- EDIT ACCESS REQUEST
I am on a team at MIT/HARVARD doing work on Product Exports Maps as part of the Economic Complexity Observatory http://atlas.media.mit.edu/. The graphical output for these maps are incredibly useful for visualizing exports. The project hopes to add these maps to every country page on Misplaced Pages. We would like to put a map on the UK page but it is semi-protected. Is there any chance you could allow me access?
The homepage for this project can be found at http://macroconnections.media.mit.edu/featured/economic-complexity-observatory/
Below is what the map looks like. It would go in the Economy section of the United States page. We have already placed these on a number of country pages with editor permission. See example: http://en.wikipedia.org/Germany/
You can enlarge the picture to see more detail.
Thanks very much.

Hi, sorry, I should have done this earlier, but a very long discussion is going on here re TFA and I mentioned your name so thought I'd notify you. Truthkeeper (talk) 01:16, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
