[edit] Auschwitz concentration camp

Hi there; this article is in fact semi-protected, which means only that editors with very new accounts (<4days) cannot edit it. Wait a short time, and you will find that you can. This article is one of a small number of sensitive articles, so please be careful as to what you add to it. A number of us guard it as a lioness guards her young!--Anthony.bradbury 17:37, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

No problem. I tend to feel that anyone who has been to Auschwitz, as I have, must either feel the effect or else have the empathy of a turtle. I was not trying to put you off; it is just that this article is one of the most heavily vandalised pages in wikipedia, hence the permanent semi-protect. I get the impression that you were affected on your visit in what I would call the right way. Go ahead and edit the article - it is only fair to say that your changes will ring immediate bells on my and many other users' screens; but if the edits are sensible, good and encyclopedic, as I feel from this converation they will be, then that's fine. Go to it.Happy wikying. --Anthony.bradbury 22:05, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mvomeka'a

Hi, I undid your edit and then realized that you had nominated it for deletion yourself. The way I understand it, once it is put up for AfD, it has to run its full course, ie, someone has to close it and then, the tag on the article can be removed. Please let me know if I am wrong. Thanks. - TwoOars (T | C) 18:24, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

I am not that familiar with the AfD process either. Maybe you can ask someone who knows, like an admin. Apart from that, keep up the good work. :) - TwoOars (T | C) 18:36, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Did you mean the edits to Battle of Dunkirk by 207.144.223.66? The rules are the same for IPs and registered users as far as the warning messages and reporting at WP:AIV are concerned. Usually IPs are blocked for a shorter duration because they might be used by a lot of users. - TwoOars (T | C) 20:10, 14 May 2007 (UTC) And another thing, please check the history page of Battle of Dunkirk. When there are multiple consecutive instances of vandalism, you have to save the last good version of the page (in this case, the first revert you did to the page); do not just undo the previous edit. Hope thats not too confusing.. Do ask me if there s anything else. - TwoOars (T | C) 20:14, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nickie Mckinney

You either tagged this with something like TWINKLE or at the same moment as I was deleting it, which is why it looks like you created the article. Don't worry, you're not a vandal for doing this. You don't have to reply to this message, either. Regards, (aeropagitica) 21:52, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Walter Leigh/Walter Leigh Rayfield

Hello. I am sorry you thought my edit to the latter article linking to the former was vandalism. Did it really look like vandalism? It was not; it was a standard disambiguation, which I put in place due to the similarity of their names, and because I got the latter first in a web search when I was searching for the former. I have now put disambiguations at the top of each to the other. I have edited a great deal here. 195.137.30.238 10:45, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

All I deleted was 'Note: Richmond upon Thames is also know as Richmond, Surrey' which is irrelevant to the article. That kind of information belongs in the Richmond article. I can't see why you thought there was vandalism. 195.137.30.238 10:50, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Harry Potter roll-call


Hi there. Your username is listed on the WikiProject Harry Potter participants list, but we are unsure as to which editors are still active on the project. Your name has therefore been moved to a "potentially inactive" list. If you still consider yourself an active WikiProject Harry Potter editor, please move your name from the Potentially inactive list to the Active Contributors list. You may also wish to add {{User WP Harry Potter}} to your userpage, if you haven't done so already. Conversely, if you do not wish to be considered a member of the WikiProject, leave your name where it is and it will be moved to the Inactive Contributors section. If you wish to make a clean break with the Project you may move your name to the Known to have left section. Many thanks.
