[edit] Greetings

It is my pleasure to meet you, Governor, although I am amazed that the reports of your demise were incorrect. ;) Although your efforts are always appreciated, I'm afraid you'll need to contribute to Wikipedia elsewhere before your comments at RfA are given much credence. Your appearance is also a bit too late -- Wikipedia has already had several functionaries approved unanimously. I am your humble servant, Xoloz 22:13, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry to question your "oppose" vote in my RfA, but you can see why it looks a little unusual to someone like me. BTW, I actually did understand the irony of your username. Look forward to seeing you around...I just hope you contribute more than an opposition vote to every RfA that comes up! --MatthewUND^(talk) 22:51, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Well, having been exposed, I shall have to take my leave of this production. My great respects to you gentlemen; my acquaintence who directed me here assured me that my "identity", so to speak, would be immediately recognized, and my gratification was only very slightly delayed. Should I ever deign to become permanently involved, I shall do so under a more suitable nom de plume, one more indicative of my wider interests. This was only a brief excursion. Good day to you all!

Ahhh, don't leave now! We would love to have you as a part of the Wikipedia community. I hope you'll return soon and start editing. See you around. --MatthewUND^(talk) 01:38, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
