== Many thanks for the welcome ==

Just getting my head around some of the formatting things; most of the bio stubs that I've started up have been fairly content-heavy, and could probably include headings so that the articles are easier to follow.

== Request for adminship ==

Thanks for your offer for help, that would be great but, only if you are willing to and only if you have some time, I've only been a member for a few months so any help is appreciated!

lol hi

== American Australians ==

The only true fact that this page displayed was the fact that American Australians come form America. 99% of the facts were false, poorly interperated, or writtin to be humorous or vandolous.

== Template question ==

Good evening. You recently added a template to ]. Could you please drop me a note with the link to the template itself? Thanks. ] <small>]</small> 06:24, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
: I'm not going to tell you off but there are some things about them that are non-standard and that I'd like to ask you to consider.
:# You may have noticed that most of our standard templates have a hidden comment at the end. It's usually in the form of <nowiki><!-- Template:name (use) --></nowiki>. Because warning-templates are usually substituted in, the comment serves to show other users where to find the template. This lets experienced editors find and fix templates which are broken or vandalized and helps new users find them and start to use them as well. The hidden comments that I noticed on yours still appear to hold the old tags from the templates that I think you copied.
:# Your templates are centered. The general rule is that templates placed at the top of the page get centered but the templates used in succession and lower on the vandal's page (like "don't blank any more articles or you'll get blocked) are generally left-justified. Remember that not all editors use the templates. Some type their vandalism warnings by hand. Too much switching back and forth from centered to left-justified is hard to read.
:# Your images are a bit larger than standard. The general trend is that the earlier, politer warnings don't get images, the mid-range warnings get small images and the "you've been blocked" warnings get the stern images. If I remember right, they usually cap out at 30px but that standard may have changed. When mixed in with the standard sizes, such changing sizes of images also can make the page harder to follow for subsequent editors who are trying to decide if (or for how long) a block is appropriate.
:# The yellow on your Vandalism template is, well, I'm trying to say this politely... garish? It's very bright. But I don't know that the brightness will make it more effective. Again, my concern is that it makes a page with mixed warnings harder to read.
: Other than the hidden template names (and maybe the centering), don't change anything yet. But once you've had a chance to use them on pages where other people are also using warning templates, please set aside some time to go back and see if the mixing of formats affects the usability of the page. Thanks.
: And thank you very much for your efforts on the vandalism patrol. It's thankless work but very necessary for the project. ] <small>]</small> 06:56, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

== Thanks Alot ==

Thanks Glen, I was starting to wonder about that ]. I don't like to see people leave Misplaced Pages, but I guess he had to, he was only up to no good.

Thanks again ] 06:47, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

== Great work ==

Hey Glen, haven't talked to you in a while, and I guess I'm not very good at searching out strangers to give "smiles" to, so I thought I'd give you this to say "hi" and "great work lately, keep it up". Don't hesitate to ask if I can help you out in some way. Thanks again, and take it easy -- ] (]) 06:49, 14 November 2006 (UTC)<br /><br />Omicronpersei8 has smiled at you!

Glen, I just like to request that his user page be deleted (if you haven't already done so) seeing as it has all my information.

Thanks ] 06:58, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

:Don't fear the blue link which would have immediately replaced the red link - I was just adding the {{t1|indefblocked}} template. '''] <sup>]&nbsp;·&nbsp;]&nbsp;]</sup>''' 07:02, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

== Thanks Again ==

Thanks for deleting the page.

Appreciate it ] 07:06, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

== WP admin ==

Hi Glen, whilst browsing through rather obscure discussion topics, I noticed that you offered ] some coaching on what to do to consider being made a WP admin. I was wondering if you'd be prepared to do the same for me? For example, what else should I be doing apart from editing articles, participating in move/delete discussions, reverting vandalism, etc? And at what point do you think my edit count would be high enough for people to start considering me? For reference, I've been editing since January 2005, and have an edit count of nearly 4000. Thanks! ]&nbsp;<sup>&laquo;]&bull;]&raquo;</sup> 00:05, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Glen, I noticed this user was accusing me of rubbish, that I don't understand. Could you please check this out. ] has also vandalized my user page, check it out ].

Could you please fix this probalem for me ] 01:28, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

== Hi...misunderstanding? ==

I was recently given a warning
http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=User_talk:202.54.254.35&redirect=no
for vandalism, although I merely changed the 'b' of british to a capital 'B'...I'm not a vandal in any way :D, in fact, I thought about helping out Misplaced Pages for the benefit of the tons of users who access it every day, and I'm given a warning??!
Well, thats the last time I use the edit option.
See you.

== RfC on RPJ ==

Hi. I'm advocating a case on behalf of a user who is experiencing numerous problems with ]. I can see from ] that you have interacted with him in the past. If you have a moment, would you be so kind as to head over to the ] and leave any guidance that might help in resolving this dispute. Thanks so much, and have a great day! ]]] 15:59, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I figured a week would be long enough for them to get bored and stop. I also don't like going indefinite immediately. I'll check back in a week to see if they've picked up again.—]&bull;] 21:46, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
