42 (movie)

this is a redirect to the article 42 (film). NintendoFan (Talk, Contribs) 22:12, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

I concur. My76Strat (talk) 22:13, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
I was experimenting with transclusion (using the {{ }}) so that's why you saw a duplicate at first. NintendoFan (Talk, Contribs) 22:20, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
I understand. If you have any questions in the future, feel free to inquire of me. I may be able to help. Cheers. My76Strat (talk) 22:27, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

Welcome back

It is good to see you again and I hope you are well. Would you like your user page undeleted?--Wehwalt (talk) 06:20, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for the kind sentiments. I am well and I hope you are too! I am not seeking to undelete any pages at this time; I appreciate the offer nonetheless. For now it is symbolic of the scarlet letter I wear with a measure of pride. Thanks again. My76Strat (talk) 06:52, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
I'm fine, thanks, just drop me a note if you change your mind. My user page is so out of date, but I don't particularly care.--Wehwalt (talk) 08:21, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

"Fashion in South Korea"

Hi!
It was previously deleted as being empty. There is now at least bare outline there, though it probably should have been started in userspace. Looks like this is part of a school project from the user]s talk-page. I'm not going to do their assignment for them... but I can't help but add a little bit of content, just to prove "oppan gangnam sytle".
--Shirt58 (talk) 06:27, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

I had observed the developments and support the decisions that manifest with the article's recreation. My76Strat (talk) 06:52, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
Great to see you back on-wiki, 76Strat. My guitars are an ancient Yamaha C-60 and an equally ancient Suzuki 12-string. There probably should be an article for the C-60 - so many people (like me) learned guitar on this unpretentious, mass-produced, and genuinely good-enough musical instrument.--Shirt58 (talk) 11:39, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for your interest in the article of my students, through I hoped that the reference was their doing. Those kids are having trouble... I guess editing in a non-native language must be though for them. Oh well. Thanks for helping out, if you are interested in this article I'd suggest living suggestion on article's or students' talk pages. Ping me if any issues arise. Thanks for your help once again! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 14:42, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

Just wanted to say ...

Nice to see you back around again. Hope all is well. I see I wasn't the first to notice your return, but it is good to have you back. — Ched :  ?  04:01, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

Unanticipated kindness is immeasurably therapeutic. You have surely added to my days. My76Strat (talk) 05:02, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

Why did you delete your user page?♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 08:34, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

I reacted badly after an AfD attacked my sensibility, moving me to feel retirement was the best option. Beyond that it becomes complicated leading to tl,dr. I think the break I've taken was otherwise healthy, and I am resolved to move forward with deliberate caution, hoping to eliminate any occurrence of bad judgement. Thank you for caring to ask; and be well. My76Strat (talk) 09:25, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
(watching) you reacted understandably, - I am happy you re-considered. Hope Dreadstar will do the same, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:32, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
If I may borrow the quote of a person dear to me; "it is people like you that make me stay!" I empathize with Dreadstar, and hope for his return as well! My76Strat (talk) 10:22, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
Thank you (blushing again), --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:48, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

Sorry to hear that, and yes, most of us have had such moments of exasperation. Hope you feel better soon. Sometimes we wonder why we bother..♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 15:02, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

It's always good to see you editing again. You have a lot to offer. Viriditas (talk) 04:53, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

I definitely appreciate that you would say something so kind. I can't even describe how it feels knowing that you are sincere. I do however, know, that you are genuine in every manner; therefor I float upon high emotion. And it feels so very good. Thank you. My76Strat (talk) 09:17, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Hello, John Cline. You have new messages at Traveling Man's talk page.

Thanks for supporting Fair Play

  • Arbcom has concluded that the claim of outing was bogus. Surely Kojakupoet's claim was just to keep me blocked, prevent me from defending myself at ANI, and to encourage people to vote for my banning.
  • As you can see from the cautions on his talk page: since returning to Misplaced Pages, Konjakupoet has continued the same pattern of repeated vicious attacks on other users that he showed under his previous user IDs.
  • It seems pretty obvious that the attacks on my repeated advocating of following Misplaced Pages rules on properly researching and neutrally sourcing BLP names and place names here and here were the result of off-wiki canvassing and mob organizing that is acknowledged here. LittleBen (talk) 23:47, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
    Thank you for the kind sentiments. I believe there are times when irreconcilable differences can exist between two editors, even while they are each sincere in their desire to do what is best; what they believe is right. Without trying to determine whose the better of you, I'd recommend putting distance between your interactions; for each of your own best interest. Best regards. My76Strat (talk) 00:35, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Distances

The section Boston Marathon bombings#Bombings gives the distances, with two references. We can not have a different distance in the lead. Cheers. Apteva (talk) 05:01, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Pending release of Notifications

Hey John Cline :). I'm dropping you a note because you have signed up for the Notifications, or Echo, newsletter.

If all goes according to plan, we should be launching Echo on en-wiki either tomorrow, or next Tuesday - I'll drop a followup tomorrow when we know what's happening. Should the launch succeed, we'll begin the process of triaging bugs and gathering feedback on what features work, what cause problems, and what we should do next; I hope you'll help us out on these fronts by leaving any comments you might have on the talkpage.

Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 21:44, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Glad hearing from you again. What happened to your userpage? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:01, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Thank you. The user page question is pretty well answered here, I think. Best regards, My76Strat (talk) 11:34, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
Ah, I see. A recent AFD annoyed me enough to semi-retire from the Polish Wiki, so I sympathize. Let me know if I can do anything to make your stay at en wiki more pleasant! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:20, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Boston Marathon bombings

Thank you for being an experienced voice on an article in dire need of it. I'm astounded at some of the talk page declarations, the most recent of which I think you've noticed. Shadowjams (talk) 12:44, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for those supportive words. I'll agree the talk page has entertained some fringe ideas, but the article isn't in any kind of shambles for it. There are certainly areas to improve however, and collaborating in your company increases their likelihood. Cheers, My76Strat (talk) 14:02, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
Agreed, and I didn't mean to imply the article was in bad shape. But yes, "some fringe ideas" :). Shadowjams (talk) 20:22, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

A heartwarming pie for you!

Thank you so much for your kind note; you helped me feel better when I was going through a rough patch....thank you! Dreadstar ☥ 15:45, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
I am glad to have helped. Thank you for editing with feeling. My76Strat (talk) 03:05, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
