JarlaxleArtemis again…sigh
Hope you don't mind, but you are apparently the appropriate person to inform that JarlaxleArtemis is being a pest again in various quarters. I noticed him on WP:ANI making a snarky comment and followed up, since the name rang a vague bell. His talk page and recent contributions show evidence of continuing twittery, and when I mentioned it in passing on IRC I was recommended to ensure that you were aware of the situation.

Cessna 414
Hi, Linuxbeak. Nice nick. I'm a new newbie. I was referred to you by Sarah E. (I forget her last name). I wonder if you have photos or illustrations of a Cessna 414 that could be used in the Keith Green and Cessna 414 articles. Sarah said you might be able to point me somewhere. I'm also looking to expand the Cessna 414 article with documented specs and other stuff. I'm almost finished with Keith Green's. --Mdoc7 15:58, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Not to be too rude but you could maybe finish answering the above questions about your election or state which ones you do not intend to answer? It would be very helpful. Thanks. JoshuaZ 20:29, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
