Hello, Matthead. Since I added your encounters with Sennen goroshi and his suspected sock IPs to automobile related articles and others as evidences for Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Sennen goroshi, so your input would be highly appreciated.

Wolfgang von Trips
Hello, I thought I should let you know that I've requested a page move from Wolfgang Graf Berghe von Trips to Wolfgang von Trips, as you made the original move a few years ago.--Midgrid(talk) 21:10, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
Seriously
This shit's gone on for way way too long. It's dumb, come on, you know it. It just wastes everyone's time. And yes, you and we (or more precisely, I) start taking it very personally eventually.
I confess that I really don't understand why you're here. What? You want Gdansk to be Danzig? The redirect's already there and considering how "travel guides" are moving (shhhhh... that's the real secret to getting Wiki name changes... we paid them off) it's not going back. At the same time, it's like you're fighting some rear guard action by supporting every Lithuanian troll that comes along. Seriously, I do get the sense that at one point or another - before you got all wrapped up in the dark side (skip Benedict jokes here... trying... trying ... ooffff. ok. think it was done) there is a good bit to contribute. Think of some Warmia/Ermland article that needs to be written. Write it, pretending it's me, with all the caricatures of Polish nationalism (however misplaced you imagine them... haha). I'll re-edit it pretending it I'm Matthead (in a good faith sort of way). It just may work out that there's a decent article at the end of this...
Unlike with some of the others, with you I don't think it's ideological, it's personal - some Polish editors pissed you off way back when in 2004 and you're still fighting those battles. That's not good and you should get over it, but it's way better the crypto-Nazi crap that does IN FACT creep up in those articles.
I think your edits on "West Germany" topics are very relevant and I think you got shafted on that subject by admin-idiots who don't have half a clue about the nature of the topic.
