IHTS

I was on your user talk page typing a message just as you added your apology/comment at the ANI. I think that was a really big step to take, and I applaud you for your initiative as it so happens. I may be speaking out of turn, but what I would propose is that you shouldn't feel a need to justify or attempt to justify why it is not an actionable PA. Similarly, to give the best opportunity for the user to let go of his deep grievance about your actions back then, it may also be worth if you avoided blaming his upset reaction for not assessing it further and clarifying sooner. What would remain would be a simple acceptance, apology and note about the mess at the time which you were possibly partially swept up in, and I expect that would be more effective. I think it would help you avoid remaining the subject of this grievance, and if the user is going to be able to contribute positively here, it would allow him to go back to doing that (to the extent possible, provided this IBAN business does not keep causing the problems that it has started to). These are only my personal thoughts and suggestions; I hope they are constructive and you can draw something positive from them, but you are in no way obliged to follow them, especially if you do not want to or disagree.

Thanks for the note. I think, now that I've said it, 'retracting' part of it wouldn't be the best thing to do, but I do appreciate your thoughts. - The Bushranger One ping only 14:18, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Morgan Shepherd

Hello Bushranger. I recently added missing results of the 2000 and 2001 season to Morgan Shepherd's Nationwide Series results table. unfortunately I have no info of any team he drove for. Also in the Nationwide table itself there are a lot of team names missing. Perhaps you know for wich teams he drove? Jahn1234567890 (talk) 14:28, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

I'll take a look. - The Bushranger One ping only 14:51, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
I've been meaning to ask, but where do you get your info for the team names? RR only lists the owner. NFLisAwesome 16:55, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
Some of it is from the old NASCAR Preview and Press Guides that I have laying around, and also poking around Jayski's archive turns up the goods. But often it's through digging through Google - for instance, tracking down Norseman Racing for Kevin Lepage in the 1986 Busch Series took about 20 minutes of fiddling with driver name-owner name-series combinations before I finally hit paydirt. - The Bushranger One ping only 21:50, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Merging of Category Category:State Assembly elections in India

Hi,

As per the discussion here, merging of the category was proposed. So after merging, the Category:Legislative Assembly elections in India shouldn't have been deleted, instead it would have been better to redirect the category to Category:State Assembly elections in India. Shyamsunder what is your opinion regarding that? Logical1004 (talk) 15:51, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Ah, I did forget to do that, didn't I? Thanks for the catch - category redirect made. - The Bushranger One ping only 21:45, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
