Thanks for your participation in my recent RfA. I will do my very best not to betray the confidence you have shown me. If you ever have any questions or suggestions about my conduct as an administrator or as an editor please don't hesitate to contact me. Once again, thanks. ·Maunus·ƛ· 13:24, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
First, I am SO glad you got rid of the JzG template. It will make you look much better.
Second, I know you have been involved in the Barney Frank articles, so I thought you maybe interested in this:
I am sure you have already heard about it, but just in case you haven't...Ikip (talk) 17:14, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
I can revert my removal of the placeholder pictures myself if you'd like, if you'd like. (The notice on the file's page is a tad confusing, sorry I removed them, I stopped when I realized but got busy before I fixed them and forgot.

I have emailed two local UK newspapers who have images of Fashanu in their web archives to ask if they'll release them to us. As they're of little commercial value now, hopefully they may well agree. Black Kite 02:37, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
Hi there, you have been one of a number of regular editors at the above article. I was its Good Article reviewer a few months back. In response to a recent proposal to split the article, I suggested it be edited down to a more manageable size and better readability rather than focussing on the split. I suggested the article was not particularly readable in its current form, and suffered from recentism amongst other things. I have just undertaken an edit attempting to implement my suggestion, in the hope that others might have a look and decide it is now in better shape. I hope you will agree. I am happy to discuss on the talk page obviously. hamiltonstone (talk) 12:54, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
I've moved the article into your userspace. See User:Benjiboi/Terry Baum. - Rjd0060 (talk) 15:15, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I would like to have the newsletter done in 10 days, are you going to have the motto contest section ready by then?
Also I left a recruitment section ready for you. Ikip (talk) 04:31, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

I notice that the find tag is now on all afds, where is the conversation located so I can add it to the newsletter? Ikip (talk) 23:15, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
Hey, I was just wondering why I haven't got a news letter in a while. User talk:Allstarecho said you are the one working on them? He said he got one last month, but I never did. CTJF83Talk 18:01, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:The Suburbs Title card S2.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. FileBot (talk) 05:53, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
Sorry, I have sent it to about half the people. I didn't think you still wanted to do this. I wasn't getting much response, so I waited for Michael to give me an interview, and Fey to write the feature article, and I sent it. Did you see what I wrote on the ARS talk page? Wikipedia_talk:Article_Rescue_Squadron#LAST_CHANCE_TO_COMPLAIN also User_talk:A_Nobody#WP:Article_Rescue_Squadron_contest
I will wait to send it to the rest of the ARS members, (I left off at User:Unionhawk found here: User:Ikip/93
You can start editing the page Wikipedia:WikiProject Article Rescue Squadron/Newsletter/20090901 right now. I will add a special link to what you want to do right now, which will show up on the 100+ editors talk pages.
I hope this remedies your concern, I simply didn't get much of a response. Ikip (talk) 11:11, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
<center> '''Coming Soon''' Due to last minute improvements, the newsletter will be postponed for a couple of days. Please keep this template here for and watch for the newsletter to appear. </center>
I don't think we should change what has already been sent out. I suggest complete the mailing and I'll shelve everything for now. -- Banjeboi 08:40, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

I notified Ikip that Pzmrd is indef'd and he said he will take him off the mailing lists. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 15:33, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
In reference to your question "Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands?" I can tell you at least one thing: When one of the 1960s radicals (I think it was H. Rap Brown) was criticized for advocating or at least not disowning violence, he said, "Violence is as American as apple pie." Another quote I saw somewhere, I don't know by whom, said this about the Star Trek universe: "The Federation is who we would like to be. The Klingons are who we really are." Or something like that.

Wikipedia:WikiProject_Article_Rescue_Squadron/Newsletter/20091001/Contest knock yourself out. This time, lets keep the conversation about the newsletter on the ARS talk page, so I won't miss anything. My apologies again. Ikip (talk) 01:58, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

I've gone ahead and asked for community support of a one edit per day rule for you and I on the Wikipedia talk:Paid editing. I feel our edits have effectively excluded other editors from contributing and I don't think the two of us are getting anywhere. I have serious issues with the way you have been editing, although I am more inclined to try this limited editing approach rather than a more heavy-handed approach.

I noticed you just spent an hour moving various articles with pornography actors. Can you direct me to where the discussion to do this took place? Thanks. Erzsébet Báthory(talk|contr.) 21:37, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
I've prodded Faulconer Legion for the reasons provided. I expect to take this to AfD if the prod notice is removed, and though I don't see any major page supporters, I've notified the page creator and primary single contributor (measured by edits). Do you mind looking over my shoulder? I've been around for four years, and often participated in deletion process, but have never prodded or nominated a page for deletion before. I didn't just randomly choose to practice today, but stumbled on the article through a new link to a watched page. As an history-cluster editor, I'm concerned about the blending of real and imagined detail in a wikipedia article, so I'm sensitive to derivative stuff like the subject page. If you choose to help, please provide feedback here in this thread on your talk page. Unless I do something very stupid, please avoid getting directly involved. Thanks one way or the other!
