Re: Hey, I'm looking to be adopted.

(Re [1]) I would be delighted to. Feel free to ask any questions, don't worry I won't get annoyed. Looking forward to working with you, –xenocidic (talk) 14:40, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

For now, just ask at my talk page, if discussions get rather lengthly then we'll create a separate page to centralize discussions. –xenocidic (talk) 14:54, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
No problem at all; I'm always happy to help. To keep things organized, from now on, I'll reply at my talk page and just leave a short note here (basically update my signature) to let you know I've responded. –xenocidic (talk) 15:02, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Since the old conversation on your talk-page has been archived, where am I best to ask you questions? Lympathy Talk 15:06, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Replied at my talk. Since you're pretty active, if you want, you can create a user subpage like User:Lympathy/adoption, and then ask questions in there - and then just leave me a note in the first section of my talk page and we can keep it all there. –xeno (talk) 14:33, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

2008 tour de france

Thank you for your comment, nice to hear my work is appreciated! lil2mas (talk) 17:11, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

AFL after Saturday night of round 16

I'm deeply confused by the ladder entries that you put in. I've undone your change - your Played/Won/Lost/Drawn entries were completely wrong. Feel free to double-check.

Thanks for letting me know, I used an automated update that somehow confused "Games Won" with "Games Played" and "Games Lost" with "Games won" resulting in two incorrect columns. The rest was right though. I've made the necessary changes and all should be good now. Lympathy Talk 09:47, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Cool - OK. 79.76.167.170 (talk) 13:44, 20 July 2008 (UTC) Rider of Giraffes

Rollback granted

After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback can be used to revert vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback may be removed at any time.

If you no longer want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Happy editing! –xeno (talk) 18:37, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Collapsible GC table

I think that was a terrific idea. I've taken a stab at it, here. If you can improve upon it, please do so (just go ahead and edit my sandbox). I think this idea comes awfully close to pleasing everybody, so I hope we can figure it out. Thanks. Nosleep (talk) 19:40, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

I have to go for now but I will work on it within the next 24 hours. Lympathy Talk 19:50, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

TAC Cup teams

AFAIK, the Zebras etc have only ever been the senior VFA/VFL Team names, with the Stingrays/Dragons being the U18 teams. Even if they only adopted the nicknames recently, that is the correct page to link to, not the senior VFL club page. If the two teams belong to the one club (ie are the Stingrays really just the junior club of the Dandenong Football Club?) then the articles could be merged, or preferably have their relationship clearly explained. I will look at some older AFL books I have for some guidance, but the AFL generally just uses Eastern U18 or similar rather than any nicknames. The-Pope (talk) 01:49, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
