Welcome to my talk page! Please feel free to leave me a message. Please read this before posting!!!!! I respond to messages on my talk page to avoid broken discussions, but I do leave a {{talkback}} on your page. I will do what I want with your comments, including referencing them, archiving them, or placing them on a page with some of my other all-time favorites. I will archive sections every 1-3 months (or sooner if I get an overflow of messages), but if I archived a discussion too soon I will remove it from the archive and re-post it here. Please do not edit my archives. See the above bullet if you feel that a discussion needs to be revived. Do not attack me or anyone else. I treat everyone like civilized people, so if you act responsibly and reasonably make your point, I am more than likely going to do the same to you, even if I disagree. If you act like a jerk, don't expect respect from me. If you have a complaint, see this page. You can also try e-mailing me, but don't ask for personal info, because if I wanted to tell the world who I am, I would have a MySpace account. Personal questions will be ignored. Please leave me some feedback on my feedback page here. It is greatly appreciated. PLEASE SIGN MY GUESTBOOK.

Butterfly Will Be Free (talk) 02:30, 9 December 2008 (UTC) RE: Wikicup, admin coaching As iMatthew said above, I'd rather keep it at a two-person team for the time being, sorry. Also, I plan to stop admin coaching people after Dendodge's RfA because I have no time for it, and unfortunately Dendodge was sort of abandoned in that respect. Apologies. Also, click here to make an Editnotice. Thanks for the understanding, Garden. 21:53, 11 December 2008 (UTC) Hey M.H.ITrue Romace iS Dead is wishing you a Merry Christmas!

The survey takes only 6 minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist us in analyzing the results of the survey; the WMF will not use the information to identify you. If this invitation also appears on other accounts you may have, please complete the survey once only. If this has been sent to you in error and you have never patrolled new pages, please ignore it. Please click HERE to take part. Many thanks in advance for providing this essential feedback. You are receiving this invitation because you have patrolled new pages. For more information, please see NPP Survey ArbCom elections are now open! Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created. Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work. Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying.
