-== [[Limoges Box]] ==
-You wrote me to stop disruptive editing. I am the one who put up the wiki page to my images of signatures. My competitors kept changing all  of the links to their webpages for advertizing. I changed it back. {{unsigned|Miraluck}}
-== JRTN ==
-I removed what you said I removed because there are no sources to back that piece of information and is rather biased.
-Clearly out of date and biased since there has not been any instance of Al-Douri advocating for separation of Iraq into Sunni and Shia only states.
-== TYpoon ==
-da patti nayite mone hello
-sorry for disturbance
-==Need your guidance==
-Hello Jim. I noticed that you recently reverted edits on article [[Sajin Vass Gunawardena]]. Well I did the same yesterday and have been getting bombarded ever since. Let me clarify before I proceed; I am NOT requesting you to interfere in [[WP:ANI]] discussing and talk on my behalf; all I am trying to do is get an independent opinion on the matter.
-I reported matter on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:ANI#Inept_action_by_Admin_John_Reaves ANI] as I found certain action objectionable and questionable. Well, as expected, I did not get a satisfactory answer and have hence raised further points. In the meanwhile, it will be helpful for me if you can guide me on
-:a) If the article was updated as per [[WP:NPOV]] guidelines? I checked and found no issues.
-:b) If the contents (except the mention of Sajin begs forgiveness) were properly sourced and could have been maintained in the page?
-:c) If the admin was right in revoking my rights when I had not even violated [[WP:3RR]] rule?
-:d) If reasons given for content blanking by Admin were correct and justified?
-Please try and help me out.'''[[User:Arunsingh16|<span style="color:#000080"> Cheers AKS</span>]][[User talk:Arunsingh16|<span style="color:#01BFFF"></span>]]'''

-== Hi Jim ... protection of CUFFARO article. ==
-Hello Jim,
-There is this guy called CIVA61, he is part of a group of sicilian vandals, who kinda "take care" of all the articles related to people connected to the mafia to try to make them look somehow "good". Now this CIVA61 has reverted the photo to an old one from year 2006 instead of the updated and contemporary picture of cuffaro in prison following his criminal conviction. I see he has been going around vandalizing the article in the other national wikis posting the old picture of cuffaro as well.
-Can u please revert it to the original and lock the article to prevent further vandalism from this CIVA61 ?
-That guy is part of a group that unfortunately virtually controls the italian edition of wiki.
-Thks very much.
-BTW ... HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014  !!

-== Re your work on the 'effective stress' section ==
-Dear Jim,
-Regarding the 'effective stress' section, much of the information are wrong.
-. The reference given was wrong (i checked it in the library, Terzaghi's works were on different pages, and even in those pages, he did not explicitly define effective stress. Please refer to Terzaghi's works in either 1923 or 1936.
-. The analogy of adding and removing water to the spheres contains several mistakes. e.g. if you keep adding more water, hydrostatic pressure at the bottom of the pile would keep increasing (see triangular distribution of hydrostatic water profile). Effective stress stays constant because total stress increases by the same amount. Also, if you remove water, effective stress may not change at all if the spheres collection are allowed to change its volume.
-. Effective stress is the stress that controls the shear strength and stress-strain behaviours of geomaterials (refer to basic soil mechanics textbook). The concept of effective stress itself can be made much more fundamental (refer to the works of Biot or Coussy)
-Please redo the entire section.
-Best regards,
-Liam.
-== Leps (lepani nabuliwaqa) ==
-Up dates to the lepani nabuliwaqa page.
-Source is mostly ME - I play with Lepani at South Darwin, and I'll add a source for you - the King Browns Facebook was the source of the "Hotest Sevens" bit. Rest can be Referenced from Souths Website.
-I Will:
-Provide references to South Darwin Team Sheets,
-Provide references to Country King Browns FB Page.
-When Leps gets back from Fiji I'll try and expand futher.
-Please note my login oceanhippie profile points to my Website (name at bottom) and refer to the http://www.southdarwin.com.au/about-us/committee/ list.  <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Oceanhippie|Oceanhippie]] ([[User talk:Oceanhippie|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Oceanhippie|contribs]]) 21:57, 7 January 2014 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

-== Central Square Central Schools ==
-Jim1138,
-I appreciate the edit you've made and the work you've done on the page, however the school district in question does not keep an updated list of Graduates who've achieved success, which is why we add new ones every so often.
-There is no cite-able list as you've requested because again, the school does not keep that information, it's a list assembled by an outside organization, if you'd much rather prefer, another page not linked to the schools page, however that would not have a cite either.
-Please provide an update on what you would like to be the next steps.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/72.90.72.226|72.90.72.226]] ([[User talk:72.90.72.226|talk]]) 18:01, 8 January 2014 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
-== Administrator intervention against vandalism report regarding [[Traditional Chinese medicine]] ==
-Thank you for your report at [[Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism]]. I have blcoked the IP address for 24 hours. I initially declined your report, but then realised that I had made a mistake. I don't know whether you saw my decline message, but if you did then I think I owe you an apology, as I made unjustified criticism of your editing. I just looked at the messages currently on the IP talk page, not at the history of deleted messages, and I thought you had just posted a level 4im warning without any previous messages, which would have been unreasonable, for several reasons. Normally, I do check talk page histories, as well as what is currently on view, and it was a mistake not to. However, I can offer a word of advice that may help make such mistakes less likely in future. Don't post an "only" warning (i.e. level 4im) unless it really is the only warning the editor has been given, but instead use a regular "last" warning (i.e. level 4, not level 4im). In effect, you said that there were no revious warnigns, and I took your word for it. I should ahve checked, and I accept responsibility for the fact that I didn't, but I am suggesting how you can helo to make such mistakes less likely.

-*I see that while I was writing that message, you posted to my talk page. I will have a look at the other IP addresses, and see whetehr there is a case for a longer block, page protection, or anything else.. I now see that the 4im warning was made using Huggle. Unfortuantely, Huggle does not always do what an intelligent human editor would do. My guess is that you requested a level 4, and Huggle, seeing no previus warnings on the page, took that as a 4im. I used to make a lot of use of Huggle, and I found it necessary to do a lot of manual checking, rather than letting Huggle make all the decisions. A very useful tool, but one that needs to be used with great care. However, I really don't know whether I would have noticed there was a problem in this case. [[User:JamesBWatson|JamesBWatson]] ([[User talk:JamesBWatson|talk]]) 12:31, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
-*Oh, the joys of edit conflicts. I see that yet again, while I was writing here, you posted to my talk page, and the article is now protected, so I don't need to consider that. [[User:JamesBWatson|JamesBWatson]] ([[User talk:JamesBWatson|talk]]) 12:35, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
-*One more thought. When you make an AIV report, if you know relevant background, such as that the same editing has previously been done from another IP address or account, it is worth briefly mentioning the fact. I would certainly have taken a different line on this case if I had known the full history. (And yes, I know that when you make an AIV report you are told to "keep it short", but I wouldn't take that principal too far.)

-== Outfit7 ==
-Hi,
-Apologies Jim1138, the information was incorrect; Outfit7 was not launched in 1993.
-Thank you for your diligence nonetheless.
