This is my talk page, apparently.

I'm only talking to myself to get rid of the red-ink "my talk" heading at the top of the page. Catches the eye, you see. Hopefully, when I press "Save", it'll turn black. Cunning, eh?!

WANNA BE ADOPTED?

Then I'd help u on wiki codes, how to edit, or whatever u want! -- Walter Humala - Emperor of West Misplaced Pages |wanna Talk? 04:58, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

This great experienced emperor is seeking to adopt a new user (servant).

"Wanna"?! "u"?! "servant"?! Get stuffed. No offence.

Gardener of Geda 02:32, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Note from page-owner : The "WANNA BE ADOPTED" message originally featured a graphic which contained a notice to the effect that the sender wished me to be his "servant", which explains part of my comment. The graphic was removed, without my knowledge/permission.

Gardener of Geda 17:46, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Graphic has been added back in. Lethaniol 01:17, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

That it has. Thank you. Gardener of Geda 03:17, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Adoption

Yes, I see your point. You are certainly not obligated to accept an "adoption" offer. If you would like to possibly participate (I know it's a split infinitive, whatever) in such an arrangement, you can check out WP:ADOPT where there are lots of other editors with technical knowledge willing to "adopt" a new user. -- ßott e siηi 15:58, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Courtship Rite

Hi. I've added a lot to what you did on Courtship Rite, but it still needs a plot summary. —wwoods 07:32, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks - it was a good edit. The plot section you've started is OK, I think, and doesn't need much adding to, but I may get back to it at some point. If you don't mind, I'm going to transfer this conversation to the book's Talk page, seeing as one doesn't exist as yet. Thanks again.

Messing with your talkpage

Sorry for messing your talkpage, I should have said clearly why I removed the template put there by Walter H. The template also added your Username to a list of users who wanted to Adopt in the Adopt-a-User Program,

Ah - sorry, I didn't realise that. Gardener of Geda 01:22, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

and as this was obviously not the case, I needed to remove it. I will add back in the template, but without adding you to the list

Thank you; much obliged. Gardener of Geda 01:22, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

In the case of not getting a positive response - this is a criticism of Walter H, who by pushing the Adoption issue in his own special way will, in my humble opinion (IMHO) deter people from the program. It is in no way a criticism of you who are entitled to your views. I hope I have caused no offence. Lethaniol 01:14, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

You haven't. Thank you for replying, and clearing things up. (By the way, it is VERY cool that you're involved in working on synthetic cannabinoids!)

Gardener of Geda 01:22, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

You guys are kind of rude with my intentions... -- Walter Humala - Emperor of West Misplaced Pages

|wanna Talk? 04:48, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

However, u guys were right. I was wrong, cheers! -- Walter Humala - Emperor of West Misplaced Pages

Inspired Alan

Hello.

Hello! : Gardener of Geda

I just wanted to give you a courtesy heads up that I removed the Alan Partridge content (see here).

I never for a moment thought you wouldn't! ;) : Gardener of Geda

Thanks for making the effort to provide references, but next time it might be worth have a read of WP:RS first.

No problem. Sounds better than "please source these opinions of it will be removed" anyday, and while I was grateful for your concern, some people might not take it in the manner, I'm sure, it was meant. (Hey! I'm just joking!!!) : Gardener of Geda

Oh, and while I'm grateful for your concern about my coffee intake, some people might not take it in the manner, I'm sure, it was meant.

Well, there's a lot of humourless people out there, isn't there? Glad to see you're not one of them. Us Partridge fans should stick together! (Not literally, of course. That would be awful). : Gardener of Geda

Happy editing! Rockpocket 05:44, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for getting in touch. Let's sweep this tragic event under the carpet, and be friends! : Gardener of Geda 06:26, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
