[edit] WP:RFA edit

Also, regarding this edit... I believe Taxman is a 'crat. Your edit was clearly good faith, and you reverted it yourself of course, but its generally advised not to edit the page unless you are transcluding an RfA as a nom or candidate or closing one as a 'crat. You may be aware of this already - although your account appears to be new, I get the feeling it might not be your first. If you are new, welcome. If not, welcome back!

Yes I'll be more careful in future, never heard of Taxman before so I assumed he wasn't one :-)--Serviam (talk) 11:50, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rollback

I've granted you rollback. Please take the time to visit Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback to practice, and ask on my talk page if you need help. Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 11:18, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll have a read over that page then :-)--Serviam (talk) 17:02, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] strange question

You wouldn't happen to have ever played a computer game called Dragonrealms, have you? ⇒SWATJester Son of the Defender 22:21, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

No, sorry, never heard of the game. Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Forgotten Realms something to do with it?--Serviam (talk) 12:57, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Nope, or at least nothing that isn't incredibly tangential. Your username, Serviam, is a character name that someone I used to know used in that game.⇒SWATJester Son of the Defender 23:43, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Am, right, sorry. Serviam means "I will serve" in latin, which is what I intend to do here at wikipedia, writing articles and all. I do have RTW though, and that's a great game ;-).--Serviam (talk) 19:19, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Request to move article Cohort (military unit) incomplete

You recently filed a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves to move the page Cohort (military unit) to a different title - however your proposal is either incomplete or has been contested as being controversial. As a result, it has been moved to the incomplete and contested proposals section. Requests that remain incomplete after five days will be removed.

Please make sure you have completed all three of the following:

  1. Added {{move|NewName}} at the top of the talk page of the page you want moved, replacing "NewName" with the new name for the article. This creates the required template for you there.
  2. Added {{subst:RMtalk|NewName|reason for move}} to the bottom of the talk page of the page you want to be moved, to automatically create a discussion section there.
  3. Added {{subst:RMlink|PageName|NewName|reason for move}} to the top of today's section here.

If you need any further guidance, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Requested moves or contact me on my talk page. - JPG-GR (talk) 00:59, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Barnstar

Thanks! have you seen much of my stuff then? i'm afraid i cant recall having much (if any) interaction with you as a user. Actually, does deleting pages count as "stuff"? :P. Ironholds 15:21, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

ahh ok, thank you. I have made some mistakes (and i freely admit to that) but the ratio of mistakes to edits when i've made 5,300-odd edits is fairly good. Hopefully i'll be nominated for adminship at some point to make the deletion process that much faster. Thanks again for the barnstar, its the first one i've got. rollback and a barnstar within 3 days of each other makes me a happy wikipedian.Ironholds 15:26, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
