Hello

Congrats on your recent wedding. Would you like a wedding present of one of your FAs on Main Page? If so, please see Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Cricket#Ashes-relevant_FA_for_Main_Page.3F. (Full disclosure, it'd be best if you apply for your present yourself, but that's the wiki way!) --Dweller (talk) 13:33, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Go for it! Collie will get 1 less point than KP as I've had articles at Main Page before. And KP is much higher profile (not to mention that Collie's place is perhaps no more than 90% assured) --Dweller (talk) 09:55, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done.—MDCollins (talk) 00:24, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Another gift?

Like a name change to this? --Dweller (talk) 12:41, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why not. As she who must be obeyed has changed her name in real life, I could do so here. Do I need to make a formal request (to change to MDCollins - my current sig), or can you authorize it on the strength of this?! Thanks for the kind words at WP:TFAR :-)

I can just do it, but of course you have edits on other Projects, which would remain unchanged. You can get help reallocating some or all of these using local Crats (or a Steward, I believe). Do you wish me to progress the change at en:? --Dweller (talk) 07:40, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes please! I gather that it isn't possible to change an entire SUL, but that each wiki needs changing individually - what a stupid system! Is it possible to change the en: login then merge to old with the new to in effect move the SUL? In any case, feel free to proceed with the local change. Cheers!—MDCollins (talk) 23:50, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I can only do a local change, which I'll do in a minute. You then need to secure the SUL on it (do it through your Preferences as soon as possible). Then contact a steward and ask for help with the SUL... and let me know what they say, I'm interested. --Dweller (talk) 09:56, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bah. This gets more irritating. But we're almost there. There's already a User:MDCollins, created in 2006. It has no edits at all and should be a breeze to usurp. Place a request please at WP:USURP and it'll be done. --Dweller (talk) 10:01, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats

Belated congratulations on your marriage -- just noticed the banner at the top! -- EdJogg (talk) 09:05, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pipe organ GA Sweeps: On Hold

I have reviewed Pipe organ for GA Sweeps to determine if it still qualifies as a Good Article. In reviewing the article I have found several issues, which I have detailed here. Since you are a main contributor of the article (determined based on this tool), I figured you would be interested in contributing to further improve the article. Please comment there to help the article maintain its GA status. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. --Happy editing!
