Hey Husond!

Hey long time no see, I was going to ask you a favor, the following article Steve Stivers is going to get a lot of vandalism now that he won the primary and is an official candidate for congress, I was going to see if it is possible to have it semi protected for the next 6 months until election day, if you cant do it thats cool, i just thought it might be a good idea to ask.--Joebengo (talk) 00:08, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Grey Wolves

Could you check on this article? Recent edits by Kalt wie Stahl[1] are rather POV backed by a non-English, unpublished website. Thanks. --Kansas Bear (talk) 17:05, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Hey!

Nice to see you back. You probably still recognize me (from my old RfA); I'm still active like I was. I just wanted to pop in here and say hello and welcome back! Have a good day/night/week. Schfifty3 03:53, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks

I appreciate the help. Also, thanks for pitching in at recent changes. We need all the help we can get. See ya 'round Tiderolls 14:52, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

IP block

You recently blocked User talk:174.91.217.32 for vandalism. I noticed this IP was specifically targeting User:Paul Erik. I'm suspecting sockpuppetry. Thoughts? --N419BH (talk) 00:51, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

I have no idea; I do not have enough experience to make that call. I just find it extremely odd that a brand new IP is specifically targeting a 20,000+ contribution user by name. I've left a message at Paul Erik's talk page as he'll probably know more. Other than that I don't really know what to do. --N419BH (talk) 01:04, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

The following is from Paul Erik's talk page. I'd say we can just drop it for now. --N419BH (talk) 01:17, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

"Thanks for helping with the cleanup. It's an anon who is apparently mad at me for reverting his joke edits to the Joseph Cirincione article. I'm just ignoring for the time being. But he seems to be unaware that unregistered editing from an IP address is traceable; his address is in Montreal, using Bell Sympatico internet. Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 01:14, 10 May 2010 (UTC)"

Okay, thanks for clarifying. I'll let you know if I have any further questions. Advice and input is always appreciated. --N419BH (talk) 01:55, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

Roachies

Huh, your hand is sort of famous there, thanks to all the roachies... --Illythr (talk) 16:38, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

You yourself - not yet. Your hand, however...

A question that's been bugging me for awhile - how did you manage to keep them from falling off or crawling up your sleeve? --Illythr (talk) 22:42, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Ah, I've made the same mistake, apparently - anything as agile as the "regular" roachies would swiftly fall off on their own in order to be able to further pursue their eek-provoking activities... --Illythr (talk) 20:34, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Ayako Shirasaki Article - Possible to translate into Portuguese?

Hi Husond, I'm looking for a translator from English to Portuguese. Are you into Jazz Piano and like to Help? Or maybe know someone else? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayako_Shirasaki Thank you! --JanMatthiesMM (talk) 22:47, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Bronx/The Bronx

Hello, you participated in a discussion last spring that resulted in renaming The Bronx as Bronx. There is now a proposal to open a new Request for Comments on restoring the original name. If you have comments about the timing of such a proposal, please make them soon at Talk:Bronx#Query: when do we consider this? because, unless a there's a consensus against such a Request for Comments, it will begin early this week. Thanks. —— Shakescene (talk) 21:47, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

You always decide to change without ending discussion? Discussion is still ongoing. Subtropical-man (talk) 11:45, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Featured portal review/Portugal

I've listed Portal:Portugal for Featured portal review as I don't think it meets current standards because it's not kept up to date - in fact, you said much the same in January 2007! If you can join in the discussion or help to improve the portal, that'd be fantastic. I've left a note at WP:Portugal but I don't know how active that is; if there are other people you think I should tell, please let me know. Regards, Bencherlite^Talk 17:32, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Antonio Petrus Kalil

Hi Husond, I posted recently to the BLP noticeboard with a problem about a BLP that relies on Portuguese sources, and Slp1 suggested I contact you. It's Antonio Petrus Kalil, an article about a Brazilian operator of an illegal lottery. I noticed it after a couple of requests for protection at RfPP. Someone apparently from Kalil's family is objecting to the content.

There were some very serious allegations in the article -- the worst have been removed, but we're still having difficulty making sure (a) that the article doesn't go beyond the sources, and (b) that the sources are high quality. If you have any time to look that would be very helpful. There's a section on talk that starts at Talk:Antonio_Petrus_Kalil#BLP_concern, though it's quite long to read. There's a suggestion that we go back to a stub at Talk:Antonio_Petrus_Kalil#Suggestion, and a list of the sources the article currently uses at Talk:Antonio_Petrus_Kalil#Current sources.

It would be helpful to have an uninvolved Portuguese speaker overseeing what's going on, even if it's just to comment occasionally. But don't worry if you're too busy to take a look. I'll completely understand, so feel free to ignore the request. Cheers, SlimVirgin ^{talk|contribs} 22:06, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion for improvement of your "has been here" layout

Instead of using pictures of parentheses, I recommend that you do the following HTML solution.

( )

Since the parentheses are rendered as HTML, you will have the correct background color. Bender2k14 (talk) 15:17, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Request for input

Hi Administrator? Husond, I found your name when I was surfing through the archives of Talk:Continuation War. I like what you stand for according to your user page, and I think Portugal sounds like a neutral origin for a WP administrator. *Are you still an administrator? Either way, I'd be grateful if you'd have time to look at the edit war occurring at Continuation War, and tell me how to move the dispute on the fast track to resolution. Based on the what I can see, Sovietization of history articles related to the USSR has become pervasive on WP. Thanks for your trouble! Paavo273 (talk) 07:54, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

West Papua userbox

Your User:Husond/Userboxes/IrianJaya userbox links to the disambig page West Papua. Is is supposed to link to West Papua (province) or West Papua (region)? Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 14:14, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Or Republic of West Papua? Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 14:25, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

The latter. Thanks Húsönd 22:06, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

Userboxes

Hey Husond, do you remember anything about formatting?

I've been making a userbox subpage (using yours as a model), but as you can see, the userboxes in the center column are aligned to the left. I want them to be perfectly centered. How do I do that?

Thanks in advance. =) Kurtis ^(talk) 10:53, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
