It's been a while since we talked last. How are you? If you can, you should try to come onto IRC in the next hour (I have to leave after that). I have a question for ya. iMatthew : Chat 18:22, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hey man, it's been a while since we talked. I'm just here to say welcome back man, how are ya? SaveUs.Y2J 9:03 13 April 2009 (UTC)
I've been doing quite well, thanks for asking. Do you still wanna be my adopter? (even though you won't be on as much).SaveUs.Y2J 9:27, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Aw thats a shame, we could really use your help as much as previously. But, at least you're back somehow ;) I hope you enjoyed yourself while you were gone :)--Truco 23:33, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, I don't really need an adopter, I experienced some things when you were gone, but do you still have a Yahoo? SaveUs.Y2J 9:36, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Absolutely man, WWE is just bad now. I believe once Eddie passed, WWE began to die. Now look, they have CM Punk become a Triple Crown Champion in less than a year. Yeah, I would stay away from those PPVs. If you have time, you should try working on SS'07 again. While you were gone several other articles have been promoted to FA.--Truco 23:40, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, it has been a long time since we talked on Yahoo. If I do remember correctly, the last time we talked (before you left), was before No Mercy (2008) (on Yahoo). Sign into Yahoo (when you get the chance). SaveUs.Y2J 9:42, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, things have changed. Like the ppv guidelines, and guidelines on Wikipedia, and some of the members of the Kliq have just gone our separate ways.--Truco 23:49, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Have you been watching wrestling these days? The storylines ain't going that well, (especially in WWE). SaveUs.Y2J 9:52, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
You're not wrong my friend, the storylines were awful in 08, and now are getting worse in 09. How much more awful can the storylines get? SaveUs.Y2J 9:57, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Yeah. Just take your time to get accustomed to the changes. I'm always here to help ;)--Truco 00:13, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Do you remember how to do admin work? :D--Truco 00:21, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ha. Have you checked out WP:PW?--Truco 00:38, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Umm. I don't highly recommend it, because it has turned into hell over there, but if you really want to...--Truco 00:55, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, its not the same as when you left.Truco 01:18, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm just curious to know, what does LAX mean in your case?, (Los Angeles, the Los Angeles airport, the TNA Tag Team, etc.). Later. SaveUs.Y2J 21:53, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hey
Hey, well back. Haven't seen you around in a long time. It hasn't been the same without you. Glad to have you back.--WillC 00:43, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, could use another person to watch the TNA stuff. So where have you been, if you don't mind me asking.--WillC 01:27, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That's good to know. Sucks, though that you won't be active as you once were. :( But, if you're gonna be here once in a while, then that's good. :) -- ThinkBlue (HitBLUE) 19:48, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am sending you this message since you are a member of the GA WikiProject. I would like to invite you to consider helping with the GA sweeps process. Sweeps helps to ensure that the oldest GAs still meet the criteria, and improve the quality of GAs overall. Unfortunately, last month only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process when 163 articles were reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.
We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the list, and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

File:Edge-WWEChamp-2006.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:Edge-WWEChamp-2006.jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:Edge-WWEChamp-2006.jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 16:45, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Page has multiple issues. Information on page is already contained on pages such as computational fluid dynamics, turbulence, Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations, large eddy simulation, etc. Deletion of this page will prevent information creep, scattered information, and redundant efforts related to Wikipedia's coverage of turbulence and turbulence modeling. See Talk page for a vote on this issue.
Hope this isn't irrelevant, but I noticed you edited this page, so I thought I'd give you a heads-up. You can vote on this at the Turbulence models talk page. --Charlesreid1 (talk) 10:27, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Orphaned non-free image File:Slammy Awards.jpg
⚠ Thanks for uploading File:Slammy Awards.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk 03:56, 12 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
WikiProject Good Articles will be running a GAN backlog elimination drive for the entire month of March. The goal of this drive is to bring the number of outstanding Good Article nominations down to below 50. This will help editors in restoring confidence to the GAN process as well as actively improving, polishing, and rewarding good content. If you are interested in participating in the drive, please place your name here. Awards will be given out to those who review certain numbers of GANs as well as to those who review the most. On behalf of my co-coordinator Wizardman, we hope we can see you in March. MuZemike delivered by MuZebot 00:14, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Articles for Creation is desperately short of reviewers! We are looking for urgent help, from experienced editors, in reviewing submissions in the pending submissions queue. Currently the are 3398 submissions waiting to be reviewed.
Can you review submissions based on their individual merits?
If the answer to these questions is yes, then please read the reviewing instructions and donate a little of your time to helping tackle the backlog.
MSU Interview
Dear LAX,
My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the communityHERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your nameHERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
