Hi.
One way to contact me is to edit this page and add a section at the bottom (click here to do that). If your topic concerns a particular Misplaced Pages article, please mention the article name. To cause your edit to be signed and timestamped when you save it, please sign it with four tilde characters (like this: ~~~~). If you don't do any of this I'll probably be able to figure it out anyhow, but I would appreciate your trying to avoid making responding to you difficult for me.
I will generally respond on this page inside the section which has been added unless you request otherwise. Please watch this page if you leave me a message.
Costs of homeless to municipalities
I know I already click-to-thanked you for this, but was very nice of you to do. I always try to put any edits that might be controversial up on the talk page first, and the very best outcome is to see someone else incorporate them. *hugs*! EllenCT (talk) 04:27, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the thanks, but really not needed. I happened to come across the talk page section and agreed that it ought to be in the article. Since I'm not a regular editor of that article and might not have seen it again for some time, I WP:BOLDly added it then rather than leaving it pending for others to do. Cheers. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 04:42, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
Apology
I wanted to apologise for being a dick. I know that you are a trusted admin or something, so please accept my most sincere apology. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.118.174.143 (talk • contribs) 02:52, January 3, 2015 (UTC)
- No problem. I'm glad you've realized that the objective here is to build an encyclopedia, not to enjoy oneself by vandalizing the contributions of others. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 02:59, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
Global Citizen issue
Hi,
Thanks for calling.
I do not have the time to dig up/present my statement. So your action is probably for the best. Seeing the partner list, I got very suspicious, did a short info-review, and made my posting. But, I am not up for this battle, right now. Best to you. Cheers, Terje
Hi again Mr. Bill M,
Did not realize at first, horrible times at your part of the globe. Open communication is of good help in distress. Read your info-page, and taught I could return a bit of me, Terje - the forester of 52 years, Norwegian. GIS/GIT & economics, forestry planning. Into mountain forest spreading doe to climate change at present. Monitoring the mountain continental birch in Norway.
Best to you. Cheers, Terje

MDMA revert
Hi Wtmitchell. I'm trying to figure out what makes my edits to MDMA disruptive or vandalism. Could you provide some more detail. The additional information provided was from the sources already cited. Sizeofint (talk) 23:58, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
- Hi. That refers to this revert. It was done from WP:Huggle, and I don't recall what prompted it. I've looked back and see that (a) you've unreverted it, (b) the unrevert involved a series of your edits, (c) looking quickly at the edits in the series I don't see anything which might have decided me on seeing that edit from Huggle to do a revert. This looks like my error -- perhaps a mis-click. Thanks for unreverting and please feel free to remove the associated notification from your user talk page. Sorry for the confusion. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 00:38, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
Sorry
I think I did make a mistake sorry I'm really sorry for this, this year is one of the best years — Preceding unsigned comment added by ] (] • ]) 20:14, January 4, 2015 73.198.164.39 (UTC)
- This relates to this revert. The vandalous edit was followed by a constructive one. I've placed a welcome message encouraging creation of a user account on the IP's talk page. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 22:25, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
kETTLE EDIT
Hi there, thank you for getting in contact with me, Sorry I've only just discovered your message. Well, considering just how instrumental he was in founding the land league as well as being the foremost political figure of the tenant farmers of Ireland, I don't really see how putting 'leading' is in any way misleading or unnecessary. Unfortunately I can't remember what else you changed? I look forward to your response,
Kind regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by ] (] • ]) 23:01, January 4, 2015 UoD973 (UTC)
SORRY! I have just realised that the correction you made was only a minor grammatical one, please ignore all of the above! Thank you for correcting my mistake — Preceding unsigned comment added by ] (] • ]) 23:07, January 4, 2015 UoD973 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) No problem. A response which I had ready to go conflicted with your latest edit above when I tried to save it. As it does contain some info which might be useful to you, I'll put it just below here:
- Hi. This appears to have been prompted by this revert. The revert was done from a WP:Huggle session in reaction to this edit which changed "an affluent" to "a affluent". Here is the diff -- you can obtain such diffs via the history page of the article. In doing the revert, Huggle also reverted immediately preceding edits by the same editor (by you). This is usually useful but in this case it turned out not to be useful. Looking at the current state of the article, I see from this diff that that you have unreverted the parts of the revert which were not useful.
- I see that you're new to Misplaced Pages; I'll place a welcome message with some useful links ou your talk page. Cheers, Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 23:28, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
Muslim
There is confusion about the terms Islam (the faith) and Muslim, the person, thus hyperlinked those terms to articles, regards, Timpo (talk) 18:14, 7 January 2015 (UTC)
NATO Intervention
I added a link and added note about US claiming it was a technical failure. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.73.72.189 (talk • contribs) 22:19, January 7, 2015 (UTC)
- I saw that here. I wasn't concerned about who claimed what so much (I personally don't favor either claim over the other and have no way of knowing which is true), but rather that the assertion in the article contradicted the cited source. I see that you have now cherry-picked a different source which supports the version you favor. That, of course, is improper. I'll let it stand for now; someone else will probably change it. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 22:28, 7 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello Wtmitchell
Hi Bill,
I just recently read your page and I'm kind of jumping out of my seat that you live in the Philippines! I'm actually Filipino and I'm proud! Sorry about the edit about the Filipino people. Message me a lot please! Great to know you!
Yours sincerely, MisterEpic101
P.S. Please message me on how to make a page. I'm going to make one on the famous origamist, Jeremy Shaffer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Megacool1100 (talk • contribs) 03:02, January 8, 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by MisterEpic101 (talk • contribs) 02:27, January 8, 2015 (UTC)

- Oops. I placed that welcome message on the wrong user talk place. I'll redo it on yours. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 10:13, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
The Rats of Tobruk
Hi, I left a comment about my father, still alive, who was a serving in the 4th Royal Tank Regiment, based in Tobruk. He is my living witness to the battle of Tobruk and I edited the page because no mention was made of the British soldiers who also served at Tobruk. Yet, my edit has been removed. If you do not accept a clarification from a living member who actually fought there, what do you require as proof? Regards, Martin Read, son of Donald Read, 4th Btn. RTR [[unsigned2| 11:28, January 8, 2015|109.158.78.66 }}

Origin of the domestic dog - dispute
Hi Bill, I could do with some help by a rational mind at the bottom of the Origin of the domestic dog Talk page if you are available to have a look. There is a dispute with someone (who I believe has some wider issues), and we are moving towards adjudication. Another opinion there might avoid that. Regards, William Harris (talk) 00:55, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
- Commented here. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 01:59, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
- Many thanks. I have followed your advice, used your dot points as a template for reaching an agreement with the other party, and a compromise reached. Although I am not really happy about it, Misplaced Pages advises that in conflict an editor should take a long-term view - I can foresee what will happen long-term now. I guess part of the issue was that I have undertaken a substantial rework of this page over the last few months and became too emotionally attached to it. Several days away in a remote part of the country helped clear my thinking. For your work over the years, I have given you a Zen award. Regards, William Harris (talk) 23:32, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

You removed the content I added about Charli XCX's name
You removed content I added to Charli XCX's page concerning her name. I added "which stood for "Kiss Charli Kiss".
You deleted it because I did not cite my information. I got the information from Charli XCX's interview on On Air with Ryan Seacrest, which another author already cited, they however left out one of the most important pieces of information concerning her name "what does XCX stand for?" A lot of people were probably curious as I was, it wasn't on wikipedia when I looked (because you removed it it still is not on wikipedia) and I did not know until I hear this interview on the radio.
You sent a message saying to post here if I felt my information was removed in error...
Thanks & Happy New Year! — Preceding unsigned comment added by BobBurr105 (talk • contribs) 04:36, January 13, 2015 (UTC)
- I've looked back through my recent edit history and it's not clear to me which article and what edit of mine you are talking about. What you say sounds reasonable, though. Can you please let me know the article and edit at issue? Thanks and happy 2015. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 10:22, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
Response to old comment from January 8
Looking at this talk page ywesterday, I see the following which had been added earrlier at the top of the page and had gone unnoticed until now:
The death of Leelah Alcorn
You said that I did not cite proper sources but throughout the article he is refered to by a name that is not legally his real name and is constanly referred to as she when he is a pre operation transexual therefore still making him a male I dont have a proper source to site other then that I actually knew him and went to his school he was a male
— Preceding unsigned comment added by Megacool1100 (talk • contribs) 03:02, January 8, 2015 (UTC)
I've supplied the sig there, as the comment was originally unsigned.
That appears to concern this revert, which reverted the only edit by this user to date other than the edit to my user talk page. There have been quite a few edits to the article since my revert, and I'm going to presume that those editors would have by now resolved any question about that 8 January edit.

Edit
Hi. I did not add anything to the page. I removed inflammatory, degrading, offensive, and downright false statements from the article. I did accidentally remove one citation so thanks for bringing that back — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.161.90.178 (talk • contribs) 22:42, January 15, 2015 (UTC)
- This seems to relate to this revert, which seems to have come from either a mis-click or an unrecognized edit conflict during a WP:Huggle session. I see that the content at issue restored by my revert has been re-removed. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 23:05, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

User talk:Brains0076
You'd slapped a 31 hour block for vandalism on this newbie on the 4th, and since then, he's been at it some more; this seems now like a vandalism-only account. Just FYI ... Ravenswing 14:10, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- I probably blocked him from a WP:Huggle session based on a pattern of prior warnings. I took a quick look at his current most recent edit and don't see obvious vandalism -- though he appears to edit sports articles and I'm not familiar with that topical area. I'm not going to follow up on this, expecting that editors more familiar with that topical area will take care of it. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 15:10, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
