2007eaglez.png and goldeneaglez.png images

I really have no idea why you deleted these pictures, I made sure that the copyright said that these were my own images but still I was getting comments that they were not mine and I needed a copyright on them.

Your adoptee

I seem to be getting into a dispute with your adoptee User:cbreseman. If that adoption is still live would you care to read User talk:WereSpielChequers#Don't, any suggestions as to how the situation can be defused would be welcome. ϢereSpielChequers 13:46, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Unfortunately User:cbreseman has had to be blocked. ϢereSpielChequers 22:01, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, I have been really busy as of late and I apologize for taking over a month to reply :(. First off thanks for taking the time to inform me of this, Cbreseman had gone inactive for a while, so I assumed that he no longer wished to continue the adoption so I never really checked in on him anymore, and from what I can see from his last contributions before the block, I don't think there would have been much I could have done to help out aside from telling him to take some time to calm down, which numerous other editors had already told him to do. All and All, I feel bad that I wasn't able to help out with trying to settle things calmly and avoid blocks, even though I don't think I could have been much of a help :(. All the Best, --Mifter (talk) 00:18, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Hey, Chubbennaitor! Its good to hear from you again, I've been doing fine recently, I've been rather busy which has made things a little bit hectic, but otherwise I'm doing great! :). All the Best, --Mifter (talk) 00:10, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

AfC news

Dear AfC participant,

1. Msgj and Tnxman307 are organising the AfC challenge! It's a little competition to help improve some of the articles created through AfC and we are hoping that everyone will get involved. For level 1, you just need to bring a stub up to Start-class. Level 2 is improving a Start-class article to C-class. And so on. To get involved or for more information please see the competition page.
2. Those of you who haven't reviewed an article recently might not have noticed the new process that was implemented this year. Reviewing articles is now more enjoyable than ever :) You might like to give it a try. All articles waiting for review are in Category:Pending Afc requests. (Please read the updated instructions.)
3. Please consider adding {{AFC status}} to your userpage to keep track of the number of articles waiting for review. At the time of writing we are officially backlogged, so help is needed!
4. There is currently a proposal to bring the Images for upload process under the umbrella of WikiProject Articles for creation. The rationale is that both processes are designed to allow unregistered users to take part more fully in Wikipedia, and partipants in each process can probably help each other.

If you no longer wish to receive messages from WikiProject Articles for creation, please remove your name from this list. Thank you.

Mumbai Fire Service

I saw your interest in developing content on the Mumbai fire service. Do you think there would be enough interest or information to create one on India's fire service in general? Do you think there would be enough contributors? If so, we would be happy to create an indian fork of our project thefirewiki.org. If this is something you would like to take on... leave me a message on my talk page.--Mfinney (talk) 05:42, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm not quiet sure what you mean, I have never expressed any interest in working with articles pertaining to the Mumbai fire service, or any Mumbai related article, nor have I ever edited any Mumbai related articles. If you need any help with an article or in anything else, then I would be happy to help you :) and all you ever have to do is ask :). All the Best, --Mifter (talk) 00:31, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello - i understand what you are saying about "goallover" entry, and will do my best to write a better and more generic explanation of what it is.

Next update

Thanks for your work but I notice all seven eight hooks you've picked are non-U.S. ones. Can you please replace at least one or two of them with U.S. hooks? Thanks. --BorgQueen (talk) 00:14, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

 Done, I usually check to make sure that there is not too many US hooks to maintain the balance, this is the first time, where I accidentally added too few US hooks :P. All the Best, --Mifter (talk) 00:26, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Quick apology

Hey, just wanted to apologize for erroneously reverting your edits on Template talk:Did you know. Resulting from hastily-made late night RC trawling. Felt like an idiot. anamexis (talk) 00:58, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Updated DYK template

Hi, I'd just like to let you know what the template {{DYKsug}} was just updated with a new feature: now, for all DYK nominations that include only one article, it auto-generates the credit templates ({{DYKmake}} and {{DYKnom}}), which the person moving the hook to Next may simply cut and past from T:TDYK directly into next. This only happens with single-article nominations; if the nomination has more than one article, there will be a message in the template saying "Credits must be done manually by the person moving this nomination to Next" or something like that. It will probably be a few days before you start seeing the auto-generated credit templates, since the template was only just updated and only the new nominations will reflect it; the first several times you see auto-generated credit templates, you may want to double-check the nom as you are promoting it, just to make sure the credits are correct.

There have been some other minor changes—mainly, now if a DYK nominator lists himself as both "creator/expander" and "nominator," the "nominator" field ends up blank (so that what gets displayed is "Created by User, self nom" rather than "[[Created by User, nominated by User." Also, the fields, |collaborator=, |collaborator2=, and |collaborator3= have been replaced with the more intuitive |creator2=, |creator3=, and |creator4=.

Please let me know if you experience any problems with the new template. —Politizer ^talk/_contribs 15:30, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
