Hi, Essjay. I am sending u a message to ask for your help in the article Republic of Macedonia, cause there have been far too many reverts today, mainly by users who appear to have created an account today...I have many suspicions to believe that they are sockpuppets of specific users. I have also requested WP:RCU, but i do not know if it will be checked. I would really appreciate it if u could help. Thanks --Hectorian 01:43, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

I'll take a look at the request. Essjay 01:46, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Sigh...

Hi Essjay, you invited me before(about 5 months ago), which I still apreciate, but I need to know something really important that's beginning to get on my nerves. It is this: How do you create the default revert that looks like this-Reverted edits by 24.128.35.30 (talk) to last version by Hbackman? It seems so much easier and more thorough than what I do now. Any help you can give would be appreciated Magicmonster 03:52, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

It's a default summary created by using administrator rollback. However, there is a javascript extension called "godmode-light" available to non-administrators that mimics this function. You can read about it here. Essjay 03:57, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks bunches! Magicmonster 05:13, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

No problem

Good job...keep up the good work!--MONGO 04:24, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

User:Rainbow Brite !

By any chance, could this be a reincarnation of another "rainbow" buddy of your? Just thought I would bring it to your attention. -- Psy guy 05:26, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Doubtful; RW77 is a troll, not an out-and-out vandal. Plus, he has no beef with Jimbo; I'm the one that got him banned. Essjay 05:31, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Change username request

I'm sorry, but I used my name and surname for the username, and I realized that it's better not to show my real data to everybody

From the top of this page: If you are making a Checkuser request, please list it on Requests for Checkuser; if it is an emergency, you may leave me a message here directing my attention to the request at WP:RFCU. Also, please read my policy on performing requests. Please follow these guidlines. - Pureblade | 17:10, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

I already took care of his request at Misplaced Pages:Changing username, but thanks for keeping an eye on things. :-) Essjay 06:58, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Welcome aboard!

Hey Essjay! Welcome aboard the J.W.S. Bureaucrat! ;-)

See, I told you not to worry about it. You got in! Good job, and congradulations! Linuxbeak (drop me a line) 16:08, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Allow me to echo this sentiment! I congratulate you, and I wish you smooth sailing, although we both know the seas are sometimes stormy and fraught with peril. You have been, in thought and action, one of the people I most respect here at WP. Good luck, me ol' trout! Regards, Hamster Sandwich 17:04, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you both, for your kind words, and your congratulations. :-) Essjay 06:59, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Your Rainbowwarrior page

I deleted it because of a privacy-related request sent to the OTRS email, and hope you don't mind. It seems to be a closed matter for the time being. Feel free to undelete if you disagree, or contact me via email if you wish to discuss. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 23:03, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

It is an archive of messages that were left on my talk page by the now-hardbanned User:Rainbowwarrior1977; I'm not exactly sure what there is about a collection of talk page posts that would concern anyone but the banned user, but if the OTRS staff feels it's in the best interests of Misplaced Pages for these messages to not be publicly archived, then I have no objection. I am, however, left scratching my head as to what exactly could constitute a reason for such a request (and if at some point in the future I'm going to show up and find my userpage blanked because somebody didn't like the color... ;-p).

Cloaking, turn on

I'm contacting you regarding this. I'd like to get a cloak please. Thankee. --Cyde Weys 23:50, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

You have to contact me on IRC; I can't request a cloak until I've run through the required questions with you on IRC. Please PM me the next time you're on. Essjay 07:06, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Missed Lightbringer sock

Please refer to - it seems that you missed out on Linament (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), so please take this opportunity to close this loophole. --TML1988 03:01, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

That one, and another, didn't show up on the checkuser last night; I can only guess that they were created after I ran the check but before I blocked the IP. I've blocked them both indefinately. Essjay 07:24, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry

Hi Essjay. As I can see, you rejected my request for checking the user:Latinus. You said that this case is not listed in the reasons for check user. But, I think that this case falls under the Deception and impersonation:Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet#Deception_and_impersonation, because he tries to create an illusion of broader support for a position (Greek POV pushing) in the Macedonia related articles using a sock puppet user:LionKing, but having in the same time another account user:Edwy that will have no relation with his biased past regarding the Macedonian articles. IMO that is the reason why he is trying to hide the relation between the former and current user account. I'm asking if you can consider this and eventualy decide to check the user.
