Yeah, no section, no footnotes. So shoot me. -- !! ?? 21:31, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Counting back, I think that was my 100th (40 of mine; 60 of others). -- !! ?? 00:10, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Underselling? Who would buy me? -- !! ?? 00:28, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Simon Sainsbury

Thx for the plump up. Team efforts are a good way of doing this. Looks good and more worthy of a UK philanthropist Victuallers 14:34, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

No problem - all part of the service ;) -- !! ?? 15:25, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

No argment its a 3 way split of some proportion. Not sure of the niceties ... do you appeal to admins, nominator or first editor... if its me then nick a copy off my talk page. This has happened to me before and I put it down to "working with amateurs" (ie sOK, as I ve also had undeserved credit, too, which balances it up).. but as I said you have my support for your claim and I think we want to make collaborations attractive. Victuallers 16:16, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I expect someone will be along in due course. I think this one was a three-way tie, actually. I can always do the necessary myself, if need be - I am not that averse to giving myself due credit :) -- !! ?? 17:31, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

It seems I am not very good at deciding whether a person is notable any more. -- !! ?? 15:50, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes you are. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 00:22, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Well, *I* think so, but others disagree, it seems. Sigh. -- !! ?? 00:23, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I see ! works! Well done, User:Doubleyoupea! -- !! ?? 00:17, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

I don't approve of counting mind, but spying on your contributions generally lets me catch up (and I see you've made it to the 3rd century). WP 12:06, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello, WP. I'm sure I have made substantially more than 300 contributions - you must counting be only one of the more esoteric namespaces. -- !! ?? 13:09, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Ah, go on. Where's Finchley in there though? WP 13:26, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Well, As I am sure you are aware, it depicts the guards marching out to a muster on Finchley Common, in the distance. -- !! ?? 13:30, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

We are at cross-purposes today. I meant where is it in your canon of work? Somebody's uploaded that rather nice scan, pity to waste it. WP 13:43, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

I could ask the same question, Mr Characters and Caricaturas. All in good time. I have some non-notable baronets to write up. -- !! ?? 13:46, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

I can't muster the strength for more than one every couple of weeks. At least the Bot recognized this one as "good". WP 13:54, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Indefinite block

This account has been blocked indefinitely for violations of WP:SOCK. Due to the nature of this investigation I will not be discussing the reasons through normal channels. Please take to arbitration if you wish to dispute this action. Durova 16:46, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

I have posted to ANI requesting further explanation of this block. Newyorkbrad (talk) 17:00, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

That would be a normal channel. Surely you can understand how the explanation may involve sensitive information? 1 != 2 17:18, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Unblock with apologies

When I make a mistake I like to be the first to step forward and correct myself. I was wrong here. Sorry for the inconvenience. Durova 18:01, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

"Sorry for the inconvenience." Wow.

I trust you can provide a good explanation? Like, I mean, a *really* good explanation? One that might be even slightly convincing?

Is it standard operating procedure to block completely innocent editors indefinitely and with no warning? -- !! ?? 22:55, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
