PLEASE read every single notice below. They contain quite important information that you will need to know how to comment here, and what to and what not to do on this talk page. They also provide key information to prevent possible edit wars, arguments, and major usage of the warning templates. If you do decide to skip past some or all of these messages, keep in mind that I will assume that you have read all of these notices, so please do not get offended. Thanks!
Read every single notice? Why are you giving people so much to read, just to talk to you. Keep in mind WP:TLDR, people have a short attention span. As I mentioned before, if it's different from WP policy you need a good reason for it - if it's the same as WP policy you need not re-iterate it. I'd remove this notice all together.
There's no need to put up a notice regarding this. If people have commented, you can get their feedback (which you have), if they haven't commented and they feel the need to comment, they will comment, with or without this notice. I'd remove this.
That doesn't actually cover my point. I'm saying that sort of notice shouldn't be up there at all. It serves no purpose, but causes harm in that it pads out the page.
My time zone is PST (UTC/GMT-08:00). However it is currently PDT due to daylight saving time (UTC/GMT -07:00). This does not mean that you cannot comment in certin times. Just remember that I may not respond after you write your comment. My times are from 1400 to 2300 (2:00 PM to 11:00 PM), my time, with breaks in between. You may also check the world clock for times. Thanks!
I like something like this, and I'll be incoporating something a little less verbose (repetitive) into my suggestion.
To clear any misunderstanding: I use the Half done checkmark in place of the Done checkmark. Thank you!
It's pretty clear what the half done checkmark means, you don't need a notice to say so.
What do you mean, “it's pretty clear what the ‘half done’ checkmark means”? I put it there to show people, that instead of using the Done checkmark, I use the Half done checkmark. Aneditor since 10.28.2010.06:35, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Just that. If you use Half done, it's a different colour to Done and it specifically says "Half done" (or whatever fraction done). It's clear to everyone what it means and why you use it, so why do you need a notice which just adds padding.
Notice: I usually will take great offense to some mere jokes, usually due to my lack of a sense of humor, simply having a bad day (pretty much every day), being in a recent dispute or argument with another quite fellow Wikipedian, or due to my usual angry personality. Please don't get offended, as I do actually have uncontrollable temper tantrums that are on and off throughout the day, and there is no known medicine to cure them. Also, please don't make jokes to me, especially sarcastic ones, as they will usually be quite misunderstood, and despised at. Thanks!
How serious is the section? Do you actually lack a sense of humour and have uncontrollable temper tantrums? I think this could be re-written to make it clear if you are serious or not.
Ok. I will re-write this to make it clear that this is not a humourous section. I do worry that you have temper tantrums - if they are uncontrollable this could lead to some significant issues. I'll discuss this at our main talk page.
This page has deleted content. This page has previous content that has been deleted or moved. Please do not move any deleted content back here, as it will be deleted as soon as possible, and it crowds up the page. Thank you very much! Also, your comment may be deleted at any time without prior notice. Any article, even those in discussion, may be deleted at any time without prior notice.
This is not helpful at all. Firstly, you should consider archiving, it's much more sensible than removal. Calling sections "articles" which in wikipedia parlance means "articles in the main space" is not helpful. Deleted content means "technically deleted by an administrator" not "removed by user". Both these should be rephrased, but using archives (which I can help you with) instead of this notice would make much more sense.
This is my policy: ANY section may be deleted without notice. If your comment is deemed unproductive or useless by me, it may be deleted without notice. If your comment has profanity or personal information or inappropriate or suggestive material, images, text, etc., it may be deleted without notice. THIS IS NOT A CHAT SITE. If a conversation or comments unrelated to Wikipedia form, it may be deleted. If your comment violates any of Wikipedia's policy rules, it may be deleted. Content that remains unedited/untouched for a significant amount of time will be archived and moved. If there is any problem you may post a comment below to dispute it. If you have any questions about this policy you may post a comment below and ask your question. Any comments in the sections for CaptRik, Dismas, Porturology, Ryan Vesey, Sphilbrick, and Sir Sputnik that are unsigned or signed by someone other than the specified and designated persons and usernames listed may be deleted. Any comments in the section labeled “Help Desk section” that are unsigned or unrelated to the Help Desk may be removed.
Agree with all these points, but they are standard wikipedia policy and do not need to be made explicit on your talk page. Is there a lot of benefit to having specific sections for the specified users? I don't see it myself. Do they use them regularly? I'd suggest you drop the sections all together.
I will try to remember to notify you on my talk page about any comments I add at the help desk. Please check the section labeled “Help Desk section” for updates and details. If I do not remember, please do not criticize, and please check the help desk history for info. I will not, however, notify you of any questions I ask at the help desk.
What? You answer someone's question at the help desk... and then notify them on your talk page? That just doesn't make sense. If you want to keep a log of your work at the helpdesk, that's not a bad idea, but I think it should be a subpage, and I can help you set this up.

Now, besides the stop sign (which is used for vandalism), and the way it's written, this makes sense and is the most important message on your page.
I'm not keen on these, unless you spend a LOT of time on wikipedia and are very good at using it. But that's personal opinion. If you must have it, {{Statustop}} is a lot more pleasant.

I like to keep conversations together. As such, if the conversation was started on another page, I'll reply there and if it was started on this page, I'll reply here.
Set up an archive - all messages will be removed from your user talk page after the thread has been idle for a fixed period of time. They will be copied to a sub-page, where you can access them in future. I can set up a bot to do this for you.
Create a subpage for your helpdesk work.
Use statustop instead of status - It looks a lot nicer
This doesn't yet include anything regarding sense of humour or temper tantrums, which I want to discuss first.
