Greetings!
My name is Ryan, and it's my pleasure to welcome you, Kuru, to Misplaced Pages! First of all, I'd like to thank you for joining the project, and contributing to articles and discussion. I hope you can continue to take part in Misplaced Pages, because we need more valuable editors like yourself.

If you are new and need some assistance, here are some great links to check out:

• The five pillars of Misplaced Pages are the primary goals and most important rules that we follow.
• These help pages are important if you'd like to learn more about specific processes.
• The tutorial is a hands-on approach to learning all about editing.
  • For a "crash course" in editing, head on over to Redwolf24's Bootcamp!
• Writing a great article is a noble accomplishment. An article you start might end up on the Main Page!
• The Manual of style is an in-depth group of pages that will teach you how to make articles look their very best.

I hope you enjoy editing here, and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, find out where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Before I go, here's one more tip. When you post on talk pages, be sure to sign your name and the date by typing four tildes: ~~~~. That automatically generates your username and the date. Again, welcome, and happy editing!  --King of All the Franks 05:05, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Islam

Hi, I noticed you reverted the article Islam to a vandalised version that replaced {{islam}} with {{terrorism}}. I appreciate the fact that you've been doing a lot of reverts, but please be careful not to make reverts like that accidentally. People may mistake you for a vandal for doing that (I did, and left a vandal warning here at first, but then I checked your contributions and realised it must have been an accident). - ulayiti (talk) 16:26, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, no, I'm sorry about that. Perhaps I should have assumed good faith and checked your contributions before passing judgement. - ulayiti (talk) 16:28, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism

You're welcome. Having nothing on your page is better than having some kind of vandalism on there! Jamyskis Whisper, Contribs 09:38, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Big Spring, Texas

Thanks for helping out with the POV edits. The user reverted it again and got blocked for 3RR. The current revision is the one with the blatant POV, unfortunately. OhNoitsJamie 19:41, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi Kuru, RFC has been filed. (Pschemp helped me write it up). Thanks much for your help, OhNoitsJamie 01:16, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the kind words and the help on the Big Spring, Texas article! Applejuicefool 04:44, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

I have discovered that my account "Happyjoe" is blocked from editing due to some sort of misunderstanding over the Big Spring, TX article. I am not certain who to contact within Misplaced Pages Technical Support to fix this error. Please remove this block so that I may complete necessary editing on other articles. Thank you for your timely assistance in resolving this problem... Happyjoe 69.145.215.206 03:28, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

I am also not an admin with the capability to undo a block. It would seem that Essjay has left you many warnings (some of which you reverted) and has documented the reasons for his warnings very patiently. Is there something specific that you feel is a mistake? Kuru 04:25, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

User:24.186.222.194

Hi Kuru, he has been at it again, not only on Bedding but also Power tool and Shoe. I have put up a notice on Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents asking that he be blocked. Luigizanasi 18:57, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

User:Golbez has dealt with it. See Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#User:24.186.222.194. He should be blocked now. Luigizanasi 19:48, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Warwick Shool

Hello, I have a vast knoweldge of the history of Warwick School and have many reference books from which i look up my information. If you look at the history of the "Warwick School" page, you will see that I have added 2 paragraphs of information, however, GN Frykman, seems to find it funny to dismiss my hard work as "vandalism". Please contact this user and block him if necessary - he can't simply go around deleting people's hard work. It seems that he has also been very rude to one of the[REDACTED] moderators. Thanks, Liam

Thanks for noticing that, I must have mixed up my Firefox tabs. NaconKantari e|t||c|m 02:09, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

RE: Neo-Messiantechnists

No probs. However my reflexes are fading, so I'm off to bed. Happy reverting! Cheers TigerShark 01:32, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

thanks for fixing my Russia entry

I had just seen the Russians will the figure skating gold and becuase they showed no emotion i could only assume they and most of the country was of robot origin. I have since looked it up and they are not mostly robots.

Thanks

I see a lot of work on vandals, thanks. Pavel Vozenilek 14:49, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Yes, vandalism is growing problem. Hopefully, the stable versions feature will get implemented in foreseeable future and that could improve the overall quality and reduce load on the people here. Pavel Vozenilek 10:42, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Texas!

Hey, I see you are a fellow Texan! Texans of the Misplaced Pages unite! hehe. Great to meet you.  :) pschemp | talk 00:54, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Re: my talk page

Thanks for reverting the vandalism on my page. I guess that guy's editing safety wasn't guaranteed.. :) -LBMixPro 04:49, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

User:burnbabyburn

At my school, I heard some rumors about Misplaced Pages's Jeff Chang article. I went to investigate it, and saw that User:Burnbabyburn had vandalised it. This user has also vandalised the Jack London article on Feb.21. (See contributions) His account was apparently created only for vandalism. The vandalism seems to have been deleted by now, but I think you should give him a warning or block him. All names in his edits are names of other students in Hopkins Junior High school in Fremont, California. I know all this because I am a student at the school, but one who wants to help Misplaced Pages.

On Deletion of Babble from the Brooks Page

Aha!!! So I noticed you sniffed out my little contribution to the Brooks page... A technical act of vandalism, no doubt, but I hardly thought it was harmful... I was just trying to add some spice to our base's mundane entry - especially since it higlighted some of the real details of daily life here! I mean from reading that junk, one could learn about the relative non-militaristic-ness of this place, how we have a bunch sciency stuff here, and most of all, a bit of an homage to the late legendary programmer Zupko, and the dictatorship he's trying to establish! How do you go wrong there?! Well... Yeah. Obviously, just a joke meant for our eyes. But alas, twas clearly too blatant, and no match for your pervading aura of anti-vandalism. Hopefully he still sees it in the archives, though... Peace brethren, keep up the good fight
