[edit] Popup failure
The same thing happened to me maybe less than a minute later. The popup bar needs a revert revert link, or maybe a revert^n command... :D Quamaretto 21:38, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Puppet
No worries. Actually, there was nothing wrong with your edit - we both hit the button at the same time. The reason both edits showed up was because I reverted a bit further back than you. (The previous editor was a self-reverting vandal, so in fact there's no difference between the versions we reverted back to!) Keep up the good work. Waggers 14:26, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
Oh, by the way - I've noticed that Popups gives a more detailed edit summary if I revert from the page history rather than the dif view. I don't know why that is, but it might be a handy tip! Waggers 14:26, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Evolution
well, I didn't put that much thought into it, but it was awfully POV... glad you're keeping an eye on the page! bikeable (talk) 19:28, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Vandals
Yeah, this one seems singularly focused, and the articles s/he's likely to target are probably mostly already on my watchlist. Thanks for keeping your eyes open! -Seth Mahoney 00:09, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sputnik 1
You were wrong to revert me. Please revert it back to 07:07, 8 March 2006 Cmapm. It's pre-vandal version.
Hello. What changes are you speaking about? Cmapm 17:55, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WP:AIV
You were right to report the offensive username to WP:AIV; note that it is a request for administrator intervention, so any incident you feel needs an admin, feel free to report it. Cheers and good job vandal-whacking! ^_^ _-M o P-_ 18:30, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Dark Is the Sun
I'm kinda new at this and I think I am trying to get the hang of "Wikified" being breif and to the point and so at a glance someone might see if they would be interested in reading it. The one thing I would have added though... I am not sure how to put it in this or other books by Farmer or other ones is to say that the book is Out of Print or Hard to Find. I do appreciate valuabe editing advice though such as you gave. --merlinus 22:14, 12 April 2006 (UTC)Melinus--merlinus 22:14, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 501st BF2 Clan
HI,
I changed youre 'delete' to a 'nn-group' it seamed more appropriate. Orangutan 18:17, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
- No worries dude, just doing a late night run through the new articles, getting a bit cut and paste happy with the deletes, so much crap to sort through. Appreciated and well spotted. Jachin 18:19, 19 May 2006 (UTC) (Syndicated)
[edit] WP:AIV
About the Allen Langenhuizen vandal, you should warn on the talk page and point to WP:BIO (I just did this). Persistent vandalism after that warning could lead to blocking. Kaisershatner 16:37, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Kabbalah edit
Hey, just to let you know that I am not the user who messed with the Kabbalah page - I think someone else must have the same IP address as me. I hope I'm not in danger of getting banned if they carry on making bad changes.
