Spelling Bee[edit]
Firstly, I'm not a native speaker and thus not supposed to be perfect when it comes to proper spelling in English.
Secondly, "particularily" is a pet typo of mine. I know it's supposed to be spelled without the "i" but I tend to slip it in there every odd time.
Thirdly, stop being so bloody pedantic ;) — Ashmodai (talk · contribs) 17:45, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot[edit]
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 15:39, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
Just wanted to say thanks.....[edit]
.....for saying that the Joe Klein article is a good work. Even though you voted for deletion/merger I appreciate the kind words.

- You're welcome. It's all part of the process. Petershank (talk) 06:07, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Hello,
I appreciate you tried to merge the content from A Montana Tale to the artist's page. Per WP:PRESERVE this is an advisable thing to do. Unfortunately you did it wrong. In order to comply with out licensing agreement, you must follow the instructions at WP:MERGE whenever you merge content. In short, you must note where the content came from in your edit summary with a link back to the article it originated from ("merging in content from [[source]]") and change the source page into a redirect to the destination article noting that the content is being merged ("merging content to [[destination]]"). You also need to add a {{R from merge}} tag to the redirect. All of this is necessary to allow for proper attribution. Once content has been merged the page it came from can't be deleted unless the destination is also deleted - thus a redirect is essential.
I have undone your copy & paste merge and done a proper one for you, so you don't have to worry about doing anything with this article. However, please keep this in mind for the future.
Thank you, ThaddeusB (talk) 04:54, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
