Hey Jeff. =) I hope you're up to no good again. I have to take my little breaks too; this place is frustrating, no doubt about it. For a minute I thought the "boo" comment was yet another cheerful evaluation of my admin activities. Let me know if I can smite anyone for you. ;-) ··coelacan 08:22, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Good to see you around again - and with old colourful userpage as well :-). WjBscribe 18:01, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, it's good to see you! :-) But *sniff* you've lost the barnstar I gave you??? I don't see it on your userpage. :-P Cheers mate! Raystorm (¿Sí?) 18:06, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

*Grin* Tsk tsk, downloading music ilegally? ;-D Raystorm (¿Sí?) 20:03, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Good to see you back on form Jeff. :) Btw, see the gay debate last night? I bet on Obama for President (and I will), but I'd campaign for Kucinich. He's a no-hoper but so sweet... Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 21:56, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

*Grin* I'm afraid I don't know him, although I might have heard his music if he was at the Europride. ;-) That was a blast! I will check him out though. And you went to Poland for vacation? :-S I would have thought that wasn't too friendly right now, even if the evil twins are about to be royally kicked out of power... Me, I'm at Switzerland, enjoying the sights, food and fireworks. ;-) Cheers! Raystorm (¿Sí?) 09:30, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Coelacan

Hi, I saw your comment at User talk:WJBscribe‎. I have asked other administrators to check on him, but no word on him or his wellbeing. This is not like him. I wish he were not so secretive about his gender, location or whatever. Not that I needed to know, it didn't matter to me at all. But now wish I did, so I can know if he is OK. He just wanted me to know him as "Old Fish". I think of him often. I miss my Old Fish. Ironic, I was first acquainted with him after he blocked me, but he was so gentle, kind, yet stern at the same time. I deserved the block, and admired him since. I saw a person with a soul, a real human being, even if he was just an Old Fish, as he said. I then asked him to adopt me, to learn, and help temper my temper. LOL. I was able to rant, cuss and complain to him, and he always kept a level head, and sometimes let me know his frustrations too. He would watch me, and comment on me, and I never, ever was offended, as I knew he was being helpful. We need more of his kind around. I pray that he is safe, and is on a wonderful vacation. But, my gut says otherwise. I hope I'm wrong, I really hope I'm wrong. - Jeeny  07:24, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

What do you reckon?

This user loves Dennis Kucinich to little itty bits and wants to pick him up and put him in her pocket.

Re: Harper Lee

Re your message: No problem. =) That IP was certainly persistent. Looking at the edits, it feels like it's some school's IP address. While your RFPP was denied because I blocked that particular IP ending the recent issue, another admin went ahead and semi-protected it for a week , though didn't note it in the RFPP. On a side note, I restored your comment on my Talk page because I replied to it and wanted to keep the message flow. -- Gogo Dodo 22:30, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Odd link

Hi Jeffpw, I found this rather odd link to your page: User talk:Jeffpw/Archive 8. Is it meant to be there? I was basically RC patrolling when I saw an IP edit User:Tom Voigt. After realising that userpage was not actually edited under the username, I examined "Tom Voigt's" edits and found he created a subpage. I'm not sure if you're aware of it, I'm just bringing it to your attention. Thanks. Spellcast 14:00, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you Spellcast, and no, I have never seen that page before. Nor the message, come to think of it. I´m deleting it now. Jeffpw 15:27, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:GalisteoREMEMBER.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:GalisteoREMEMBER.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 01:02, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

BABY DON'T HURT ME

nah, I figured it was a formatting error, the template is screwed up enough by itself, I wouldn't be surprised if someone broke it by putting the wrong thing somewhere. I'd try to fix the template, if I didn't suck at those sorts of things --lucid 18:20, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Civility & User:192.250.34.161 (re: Twinkie defense)

While I appreciate & agree with the cautions about civility that you gave to this user on his/her talk page, the use of the epithet "anon asshole" about this same person here rather flies in the face of civility. It's not something I might have noticed because I've been occupied with other things today, except that this user has contacted me on my own talk page about the Twinkie defense article & mentioned this discrepancy to me. --Yksin 21:44, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

My dear, that's an entirely different matter. His/her actions in his edits made him/her a defacto asshole. I was merely pointing out the obvious. That's nothing like attacking another editor who was minding his own business, constructively editing the WSiki. I'm sure if you think about it (and take your time) you'll end up agreeing. :-) Jeffpw 21:53, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, no, I don't agree that calling someone an "asshole" is at all in order on Misplaced Pages, whether you're saying it to their face (so to speak) or behind their back in some other area of Misplaced Pages. My own opinion is that your incivility, both in your comment about this user at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject LGBT studies & in your reiteration of it directly above, is no more conducive to a civil environment on Misplaced Pages than 192.250.34.161's comments were. --Yksin 22:26, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Oh, well. I wish I could say I cared, but I don't. Please see the top of the page, and realize this subject is closed. Jeffpw 06:38, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
