Dear Skatefan, I can see we work in the same area and I do enjoy very much to find other figure skating fans. However you do not have a profile here. It would be nice to know more about you, I'd like to know where you come from and which languages you speak, maybe also what brought you to figure skating and what to wikipedia. It would be just nice. Because of the missing profile your id is always red when you look in history. It works like every other article. Just click on one red skatefan and you can edit. Thank you and welcome Uwe Langer 20:25, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Request for edit summary

Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 0% for major edits and 0% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 150 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear inpolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 03:38, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Olympics and userpage

Hi there. I'm patrolling the "new pages" area and have noted that you are creating a lot of good articles on winter olympic skaters. I think you would be interest in the Olympic WikiProject. You should also put something on your userpage, about what you are doing here, so that when people see your edits, they know that it is not a newbie or vandal. A redlinked name always raises suspicions of vandalism and nonsense posts.Regards, Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 03:51, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Trophée Eric Bompard

Hi. I noticed you added results to Trophée Eric Bompard. I was wondering if you could cite your sources in the References section at the bottom of the page. Thanks! Awartha 05:03, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Related link(s)

Hi Skatefan. I notice that you've recently updated a few articles about American racecar drivers and added a section called "Related link(s)". In my experience, it's more common for such sections to be called "External link(s)" rather than "Related link(s)". Please consider whether you might like to use "External link(s)" for any future articles you update. Thanks. -- DH85868993 03:31, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Olympic skaters

I noticed you have been creating many articles about Canadian figure skaters, and placing them in Category:Olympic competitors for Canada. A better category for them would be Category:Olympic figure skaters of Canada, since the parent category should not really have any articles in it – just subcats for each sport. Thanks for your work!

[edit] Sources?

Hey. :) Can you cite in the skating bio articles you've recently created the sources you've been using to create them? Thanks! Kolindigo 05:33, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cecil Smith

I noticed that you were the one who created the article for Cecil Smith. Do you happen to know if she's still alive or not? Cheers, CP 21:06, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Never mind, I figured it out myself. She's not. Cheers, CP 22:45, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] United States Figure Skating Championships
