Those three books are rather old, but there's nothing there that would change with later performances, and they look reliable. Thanks for looking for good sources! Courcelles 08:47, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Hi Courcelles. You have closed several ban requests at WP:AN. Would you close a proposed restrictions section at ANI? See WP:ANI#Proposed restrictions and the request at WP:ANI#Requesting closure. Thanks, Cunard (talk) 04:51, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If it's not closed when I get online this afternoon, I'll dig into it. Courcelles 08:45, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I've added a timestamp to the thread so it won't be prematurely archived. Cunard (talk) 22:41, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A gentle reminder that you've forgotten to close the thread. If you don't have time to do so, I'll try to find another admin to close it. Cunard (talk) 07:26, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'll have a look, right now. Courcelles 13:20, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, Cunard, you'll have to find someone else- after an hour's reading, I decided to comment instead of close. Courcelles 14:50, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ah I didn't realise Cunard had made this request; I'd made a similar request of EdJohnston earlier today. :S Still, I appreciated the comment you made there and mumbled why I usually don't mention blocks explicitly [1]. Ncmvocalist (talk) 18:01, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, Courcelles. I've asked ErrantX (talk · contribs) to close it. Cunard (talk) 23:25, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

It seems that I've "un-retired" for now.  :) Thanks for your help on the Wendy Starland article re. that new edit review feature; it seems that semi-protection wasn't quite enough to stop the very strange edits to the article. I went ahead and reverted the last change which sliced more than 5K off the article and I left polite word with the user who did so. I figured that if I was going to help out with that article, I'd better do so as an active contributor once more. Thanks again and take care. Regards, --PMDrive1061 (talk) 20:03, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

replied on your talk page, I have no intention of reverting your reversion, but you have engaged in wheel warring. Courcelles 03:20, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for alerting me to that fact. I didn't reactivate my e-mail so I had no way to contact you offsite. To make a long story short, the subject is concerned because of some legal action she's engaged in and asked she asked me to restore the full protection. I did so with no malice or warring intended and I really had no intention of returning to active duty other than as a favor to her. I'd considered a limited return anyway less the vandal-slaying that drove me nuts to begin with, but at a later date. I'll set it right and I hope this settles the matter. I have no intention of overstepping my bounds. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 03:52, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • OK, all set. The user who alerted me to your concern also reminded me of the folks at WP:OTRS. They are far better equipped to handle the situation and it'll keep me from unintentionally wheel warring or other naughty bits. My immediate plans for the article are to get rid of the outdated links and continue to clean it up as my schedule allows in the hopes that it won't have so much content removed. Thanks for the slap on the wrist. Really. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 04:17, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Perfect. Please set the protection at any level you see fit. You'd be doing her and I a favor and no, you didn't come on too strong based on my unfortunate use of the word "vandalism." Many, many thanks for your diligence and no offense taken.

FLC for Huskies of Honor

Hello. I have an open featured list candidacy for Huskies of Honor that has gone several days without receiving any comments. I was wondering if you would be willing to take a look? You can find the FLC review page here. Grondemar 00:07, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure... tomorrow. Courcelles 00:17, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, no rush. Thanks! Grondemar 04:25, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
