== Hello Wtmitchell ==

Hi Bill,

I just recently read your page and I'm kind of jumping out of my seat that you live in the Philippines! I'm actually Filipino and I'm proud! Sorry about the edit about the Filipino people. Message me a lot please! Great to know you!

Yours sincerely,
MisterEpic101

Hi.

One way to contact me is to edit this page and add a section at the bottom (click here to do that). If your topic concerns a particular Wikipedia article, please mention the article name. To cause your edit to be signed and timestamped when you save it, please sign it with four tilde characters (like this: ~~~~). If you don't do any of this I'll probably be able to figure it out anyhow, but I would appreciate your trying to avoid making responding to you difficult for me.

I will generally respond on this page inside the section which has been added unless you request otherwise. Please watch this page if you leave me a message.


Costs of homeless to municipalities

I know I already click-to-thanked you for this, but [1] was very nice of you to do. I always try to put any edits that might be controversial up on the talk page first, and the very best outcome is to see someone else incorporate them. *hugs*!

Thanks for the thanks, but really not needed. I happened to come across the talk page section and agreed that it ought to be in the article. Since I'm not a regular editor of that article and might not have seen it again for some time, I WP:BOLDly added it then rather than leaving it pending for others to do. Cheers.

Apology

I wanted to apologise for being a dick. I know that you are a trusted admin or something, so please accept my most sincere apology. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.118.174.143 (talkcontribs) 02:52, January 3, 2015 (UTC)

No problem. I'm glad you've realized that the objective here is to build an encyclopedia, not to enjoy oneself by vandalizing the contributions of others. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 02:59, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Global Citizen issue

Hi,

Thanks for calling.

I do not have the time to dig up/present my statement. So your action is probably for the best. Seeing the partner list, I got very suspicious, did a short info-review, and made my posting. But, I am not up for this battle, right now. Best to you. Cheers, Terje


Hi again Mr. Bill M,

Did not realize at first, horrible times at your part of the globe. Open communication is of good help in distress. Read your info-page, and taught I could return a bit of me, Terje - the forester of 52 years, Norwegian. GIS/GIT & economics, forestry planning. Into mountain forest spreading doe to climate change at present. Monitoring the mountain continental birch in Norway.

Best to you. Cheers, Terje

MDMA revert

Hi Wtmitchell. I'm trying to figure out what makes my edits to MDMA disruptive or vandalism. Could you provide some more detail. The additional information provided was from the sources already cited. Sizeofint (talk) 23:58, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. That refers to this revert. It was done from WP:Huggle, and I don't recall what prompted it. I've looked back and see that (a) you've unreverted it, (b) the unrevert involved a series of your edits, (c) looking quickly at the edits in the series I don't see anything which might have decided me on seeing that edit from Huggle to do a revert. This looks like my error -- perhaps a mis-click. Thanks for unreverting and please feel free to remove the associated notification from your user talk page. Sorry for the confusion. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 00:38, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry

I think I did make a mistake sorry I'm really sorry for this, this year is one of the best years — Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{2}}}|{{{2}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{2}}}#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{2}}}|contribs]]) 20:14, January 4, 2015 73.198.164.39 (UTC)

This relates to this revert. The vandalous edit was followed by a constructive one. I've placed a welcome message encouraging creation of a user account on the IP's talk page. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 22:25, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

kETTLE EDIT

Hi there, thank you for getting in contact with me, Sorry I've only just discovered your message. Well, considering just how instrumental he was in founding the land league as well as being the foremost political figure of the tenant farmers of Ireland, I don't really see how putting 'leading' is in any way misleading or unnecessary. Unfortunately I can't remember what else you changed? I look forward to your response,

Kind regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{2}}}|{{{2}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{2}}}#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{2}}}|contribs]]) 23:01, January 4, 2015 UoD973 (UTC)


SORRY! I have just realised that the correction you made was only a minor grammatical one, please ignore all of the above! Thank you for correcting my mistake — Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{2}}}|{{{2}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{2}}}#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{2}}}|contribs]]) 23:07, January 4, 2015 UoD973 (UTC)

(edit conflict) No problem. A response which I had ready to go conflicted with your latest edit above when I tried to save it. As it does contain some info which might be useful to you, I'll put it just below here:
Hi. This appears to have been prompted by this revert. The revert was done from a WP:Huggle session in reaction to this edit which changed "an affluent" to "a affluent". Here is the diff -- you can obtain such diffs via the history page of the article. In doing the revert, Huggle also reverted immediately preceding edits by the same editor (by you). This is usually useful but in this case it turned out not to be useful. Looking at the current state of the article, I see from this diff that that you have unreverted the parts of the revert which were not useful.
I see that you're new to Wikipedia; I'll place a welcome message with some useful links ou your talk page. Cheers, Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 23:28, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Muslim

There is confusion about the terms Islam (the faith) and Muslim, the person, thus hyperlinked those terms to articles, regards, Timpo (talk) 18:14, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

NATO Intervention

I added a link and added note about US claiming it was a technical failure. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.73.72.189 (talkcontribs) 22:19, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

I saw that here. I wasn't concerned about who claimed what so much (I personally don't favor either claim over the other and have no way of knowing which is true), but rather that the assertion in the article contradicted the cited source. I see that you have now cherry-picked a different source which supports the version you favor. That, of course, is improper. I'll let it stand for now; someone else will probably change it. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 22:28, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
