Pictures

At this point I really don't care about the status of pictures I've uploaded before notation was standardized. Most are public domain; some are simply conversions of pictures others have uploaded. Given the cavalier picture deletion activities that have evidently occurred while I was on break, I don't feel too bad about this attitude either. - Hephaestos|§ 06:14, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

your fr:page

fr:Utilisateur:Hephaestos is a redirect to fr:Utilisateur:Mr. Fuck and seems often vandalised, must we restore the page at his original place and protect it ? please reply on fr:discussion utilisateur:phe phe 05:04, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I revered a minor vandalism ("fuck", twice) yesterday on Confederation. There was a vandalism on my page on fr: afterwards, "Yeah, right, I said fuck you" (minor too, obvious lack of imagination) signed with your signature on fr: - from an ip of course. Ok, I didn't think for a second you did that. Looks like you have some enemy. Didup 07:54, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Another user page, Oliezecat was edited the same way as mine, that is same text and your signature. So maybe it is unrelated with Confederation, that one might have been an honest run-of-the-mill vandal and not your Enemy ;D Didup 09:38, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Farewell

Sorry to see you getting sick of the place. Le sigh - another good user bites the dust. Ambi 03:28, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Best wishes, Heph, drop a line if you want to get together for a beer sometime. I'll buy. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 02:34, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Hi Hephaestos, sorry to see you go :-( I protected your user page on german wikipedia since someone (Michael?) kept reverting it. Drop me a note on de:Benutzer Diskussion:Elian if you want to unprotect it again. Best wishes, --Elian 01:55, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I didn't know that you had gone. Please come back (even though you are ahead of me in the statistics). Deb 21:57, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

missed you

I came to your page because I wanted your opinion of a paragraph that I'd added to Nobel Peace Prize. But you're not here. That's good - there are 314,159,265 better things to do than sit around and edit Wikipedia. You're probably doing at least 27 of them. Cheers, -Willmcw 05:40, Jun 16, 2005 (UTC)

To stop repeated vandalism I have had to protect this page. Apologies for any inconvenience.

What's happening? We're losing you!

My dearest friend John, I left you a Barnstar for all the good work you did in the past, especially fixing what banned user Michael has done before he was unbanned. Hope you enjoy whatever it is you're doing just now. All year's been a sad time since you've been gone and everybody's trying to have no hard feelings about it, yeah I've also been missing you ever since. But, I'm sure things will make you feel so much better when you try to come back again sometime before the end of the year or next year and beyond! Good luck and thank you for being at the 'pedia! 64.12.116.67 16:05, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

The Philadelphia Project

Hi i have noticed that you have edited several articles on subjects related to the Philadelphia area. Several other users and myself have got together to create a project to help improve, expand, and create articles concerning the Philadelphia/Delaware Valley region. While our project is still new, we are inviting people to join us to help it get started off on the right foot. You can find the project at Wikipedia:WikiProject Philadelphia, feel free to add your name and drop off an suggestions that you might have. If you have any questions, drop me a line anytime. Thanks. --Boothy443 | trácht ar 01:36, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Sympathetic message

If it helps at all I share your sentiment, and I said as much in my RfA. - RoyBoy ⁸⁰⁰ 19:04, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

sympathy

I have been slacking off for a long time, so I entirely missed whatever attacks were made against you. But in case you check your talk page, I want you to know that I have always held you in highest regard, and believe that anything that could lead to your leaving Wikipedia is something all serious editors should know about, care about, and act on. Slrubenstein | [[User talk:Slrubenstein|Talk]] 00:13, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

We miss you Heph

I saw you did some light editing recently. Just wanted to let you know that you are missed. Raul654 05:09, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Just piling on. :) Ambi 04:15, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Denver

Can you vote for John Denver on the Article Collaboration Drive? Thanks. Carolaman 19:57, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Hey!

Take a look at these WP:ESP and WP:WPY (especially wikibios). -JCarriker 05:15, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Date links

Since you have taken an interest in links. Please be kind enough to vote for my new bot application to reduce overlinking of dates where they are not part of date preferences. bobblewik 20:28, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

You have an impostor

Here—but I have no clue whether blocking this person affects you... RadioKirk talk to me 19:03, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

To any further stupid-ass image deletion bots

Not that bots can read.

Just delete every image I've ever uploaded here. Every last one of them. Do a bot search and just get rid of them. Screw this project. ~~ —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Hephaestos (talk • contribs) 08:02, 24 September 2006 (UTC).

Your 13 alts

Are you aware that there are 13 accounts claiming to be related to you? Their talk pages are all up for deletion here.-- kenb215 talk 13:48, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

A request for assistance

Would you support the concept of moving the Earhart "myths" to a separate page or article? The reason for my suggesting this is that the main article should be an accurate and scholarly work while the speculation and conspiracy theories surrounding the disappearance of Amelia Earhart are interesting, they belong in a unique section. Most researchers, as you know, discount the many theories and speculation that has arisen in the years following her last flight. Go onto the Earhart discussion page and register your vote/comments...and a Happy New Year to you as well. Bzuk 02:50 3 January 2007 (UTC).

Baby farming

Hi

New to wikipedia. I remember way back when (all my hair was the same colour and didn't have to fill out a tax return) an article that was produced to us in colledge titled "Baby Farming" written by one of the greate satarists/poets of the victorian era.

Mainly proported as a way that the poor could supliment their income by having children and solve the food shortage at the same time. So well done with facts, figures and elequent reason that the satire went over everyones head and was actualy debated in the Common's. Trying to track it down because I would like to show it to a few people who seem to have reverted to the Victorian reason and logic over humanitaryism philosophy. That and it was just a bloody good hoot.

Any help muchly apreciated.

Kind Regards
