Hey OCTopus-en, thank you for helping out with the 9-1-1 article. The bot probably reverted you because you removed a lot of text with your edit, but it didn't realize that the text you removed was mostly gibberish. It's a great bot, but sometimes it makes mistakes just like us humans. You were 100% right in this case, so I've struck the above warning. You can remove it completely if you like. Once again, thanks, and welcome. Take care. --Bongwarrior (talk) 09:38, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Hermann Ganswindt

Thank you for your translation of the Hermann Ganswindt article.—RJH (talk) 22:49, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you, RJH, for bringing my translation of the Hermann Ganswindt article up to the necessary standard of English. In doing the translation, I wanted to strictly follow the German version first. Brushing up was necessary, though. As a non-native speaker of English, I knew beforehand that my translation was not going to be flawless. Thanks again! --OCTopus (talk) 06:48, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't realize you weren't finished. Thank you.—RJH (talk) 16:20, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Oh, I was finished, otherwise I would have added a "work in progress"-sign. Since I'm not too familiar with the special edits to fit the article to the english wikipedia standard I anticipated someone more knowledgeable than me to do the work. Thanks for your work finishing the article!--OCTopus (talk) 12:03, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Translation from English to German

Dear OCTopus-en,I created the Cypress Grove (musician) page and translated it into Italian, Spanish and French. But my knowledge of languages stops there unfortunately. Could I very kindly and humbly ask if you would be available to translate it into German please? Thank you in advance Athenaathena07 (talk)Athenaathena07 — Preceding undated comment added 01:44, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
