Grant Chuggle now on LTA

To bring back a brief blast from what I hope will always remain the past, I have taken the trouble to create an entry at LTA for Grant, in case he returns. This way you can include the link with any AIV report to save the trouble of explaining him to another admin. Daniel Case (talk) 20:18, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome back

Welcome back, hope all is well! — TAnthony^Talk 23:30, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As well as can be expected. LOL. Good, or maybe bad, news is I went to the doctor today and found out why the mood swings and really really bad moods. I don't have allergies, I have a roaring sinus infection. Not making excuses, I did what I did, but at least I got an answer to why. How's life as an unemployed person in LA?

I'm glad that you're getting to the bottom of things. I have suffered from sinus infections myself and I know that they're no fun! Do you trust the doctor? I had to go through 3 or 4 doctors before I found one who I really felt was understanding things, and then once I found a good one, I've stuck with him for years. :)

BTW, one other small piece of "course correction" advice. Please be very careful with what you put into edit summaries. Sometimes they can get you into even more trouble than actual comments, because they show up more quickly if someone is doing a quick scan of your contribs: KellyAna (talk · contribs). So I recommend that you be scrupulous about keeping the summaries limited to the content, and don't refer to other users at all. You're doing a good job reverting bona fide vandalism, but be careful to only use the word "vandalism" in an edit summary if you're reverting something really blatant (like the editor that changed "son" to "daughter"). That's definitely vandalism. However other edits, where people seem to be making good faith changes that are just wrong, it's not okay to refer to them as vandalism. A revert may still be appropriate, but it would be better to use some other edit summary such as "reverting unsourced material" or "fixing", or when in doubt, the nice neutral "copyediting" is always safe. :) Just giving you a heads-up, --El on ka 00:30, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
