Assistance

Dear Esteemed Sarek,  :-D Help! I am having a problem with an editor "Apostle12" on the Talk:Oakland, California page. First a lot of nitpicking edits which I ignored. This editor had previously said to another: "Okay, I get it...you simply have a screw loose." Apostle12 (talk) 04:37, 30 July 2011 (UTC)" so I was particularly careful in my communication, I have learned much from you ;-) This editor has admitted NPOV issues, which I addressed in what I believed to be a cordial manner. You know me well, I trust your judgment. His last comment to me just now was: "Maybe if, just occasionally, you would own some of your sh__...."Apostle12 (talk) 08:06, 12 August 2011 (UTC). (It has been pointed out by another editor that the original Apostle 12 was Judas) This was after I requested we edit positively as a team. Do you have time to intervene? I would rather not report formally as this editor has done some good work. Check out the page please. If I have overstepped any boundaries I know you will inform me on my talk page, but I have really made a earnest effort not to do so. As you well know I would like to just edit in peace. (I know, dream on, LOL) Please "advise and chastise" as you see fit. Thank you! Regards, — DocOfSoc • Talk • 09:53, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Re incipits

Unfortunately, the program is one that I have written myself and is not yet of a standard that can be released. Op47 (talk) 23:37, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Suggestion for WikiProject United States to support WikiProject Washington

It was recently suggested that WikiProject Washington might be inactive or semiactive and it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States. I have started a discussion on the projects talk page soliciting the opinions of the members of the project if this project would be interested in being supported by WikiProject United States. Please feel free to comment on your opinions about this suggestion. --Kumioko (talk) 01:36, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Abjeez

I actually deleted as advertising, but if you want to restore and salvage the spammy language, that's fine with me Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:14, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

I'm not going to bother. Up to you. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 12:24, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Thank You Sarek for upholding Wikipedia Principles.

Thank you Sarek, you have restored my faith in Wikipedia. All I have been trying to do is to post factual information to which resistance has been enormous and I thank you most sincerely for seeing the truth of the matter. I am sure repeated efforts will be made by persons to replace the incorrect information but I am sure that with your help the facts finally now will prevail.

Your one of a kind and much appreciated for it.
