A new Oxbridge user box

Sjb90...I am currently in the process of writing a user box for all of the colleges that are part of Oxbridge. This template is meant to replace your current college template. Please take a look at the work in progress and comment on it. My main concerns are college abbreviations and color choice. I am using scarf colors for the colleges. Thank you. - LA @ 17:27, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cambridge meetup

Do not send irrelevant messages making accusations to people just based on their IP address..

Dear Mr SJB90

This morning I received a message from you stating that you'd changed an edit that "I'd" made to some guy called James Whale on Wikipedia as I'd put my own personal opinions on there and they are not welcome on Wikipedia.

I noticed that the James Whale article you were referring to was last edited by this IP address in 2007.

Did it not occur to you that maybe since 2007 the person with that IP address might not actually be still using it, and that sending messages telling the person off in 2013 might just annoy someone else who has been re-allocated their IP address. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.114.150.68 (talk) 11:06, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! Looking at the timestamp for my message, it appears that I actually left it in 2007, very shortly after the edit in question. At the time, I was part of a nifty project to spot inappropriate edits within a few seconds of them being made. Sorry if you thought that I'd only just left it in March of this year -- that wasn't the case, as you'll see in the history of the talk page. It's a shame that Wikipedia doesn't remove the message after a short amount of time! – Stuart. (Sjb90 | talk) 22:08, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
