As you are an administrator previously involved with this user and have stated that he should be reacted against in a stronger manor if he didn't improve I would like to direct you to this entry on the Incidents noticeboard. Thank you. Inge 12:46, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:Sparsefarce

Um, thanks I suppose. I should have said in my edit summary that i didn't want a GAUDY user page any more. Didn't really mean for it to get deleted. Sparsefarce 16:26, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ho!

Hi Will, two things really.

Thank you ever so much for the Esperanza barnstar and the 1st edit day wishes. Both were really kind of you :)
As far as the Scarlet Carson goes, as I've said on the AfD, I think that the article would be better if it were merged into the two main V articles (comic and film respectivly). And I'd love to add to the comic part of the article (or section, depending on the outcome of the AfD), but over the past couple of days I've made a list of about 101 things that I should do on wikipedia, so it's a little way down the list ;) Don't worry, I'll get round to it, but it might take me some time.

Anyway, that was pretty much it...for now.

Thatagata Ray Chowdbury

I would be highly obliged if you could let me go to Tathagata Ray Chowdhury page again. Also kindly let me know the mistakes for which it has been blocked. I suppose, using userboxes are not something wrong. If wrong, then tell me please.

Chandronandan 16:44, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Will

Please let me know why have you deleted my article Tathagata Ray Chowdhury? I can not go the page now !!

I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincere regards

Chandronandan Chandronandan 16:51, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Will

Grateful thanks for your kind reply. My sincere appreciation. But alas, since, I am a newcomer at wikipedia, I did not exactly know the rules you know. Tathagata Ray Chowdhury is my name (my own name), where as Chandronandan is my wikipedia ID (and my nick name as well). I did not know that I can not make my ID in different name here. I thought it is just as simple as any email ID where we can choose our ID.

However, I really hope you understand my mistake. May be I should make an account with the ID of my name Tathagata Ray Chowdhury now. And may be I should no more sign in again with the username Chandronandan.

But please let me know how can I retreive my article Tathagata Ray Chowdhury.

Hoping to be favoured with your kind cooperation.

Please get in touch with me. Chandronandan 17:37, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I do understand the matter now that I can not use userboxes on articles. Previously I did not know that.

But is there any way through which I can retreive my article Tathagata Ray Chowdhury? I wont put userboxes there again. Rather I will put biographical text materials.

Please let me know and help me. Chandronandan 17:51, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I will certainly follow the rules you taught me.

My very best wishes.

Userpage

Hello Will. I would like to ask you something. Since you are so interested in redesigning userpages, would you consider redoing mine? I have tried, but I am not an expert at userpage design. Thank you and have a nice day.--Ch ili 14 04:58, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Include me. My userpage needs something much better. :P Chacor 15:55, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Haha, you have a good memory. Looks good, that's quick, wow. -- 2006/7 Community Shield winners... Chacor 16:00, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anyhow, I'll be using it, with a change to make the colour Liverpool red :P Thanks! :D Chacor 16:32, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello :)

Decided to have a look at your userpage, and I see you're stressed. Well, hope you feel better soon mate.

Chacor has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend.

P.S. - this is also my way of telling you I'm back, in case you hadn't already known. ;) Chacor 10:45, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Stress

Hope you feel better soon. Take care. -- Samir धर्म 10:44, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not knowing what the stress was at the time, I feel somewhat silly to have left just this here. I hope things stay ok. You take care. -- Samir धर्म 12:26, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Most absolutely! Take some time to relax and just enjoy yourself doing whatever you choose. And have some nice Esperanzial coffee while you're at it. -- Nataly a 23:22, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bravo, Sceptre!

Sir, you have unmasked me. Congrats with the dot-joining :) That's OK, I don't really need to discuss it. I know I shouldn't have said that, but, you know, it just makes me knida cross the way he acts like the injured party. IMO, you and Snopake are the ones who should be acting hurt - you're the ones who were inconvenienced and upset. :( Anyways, no more spilling onto the wiki, I promise (you can see from my contributions that I'm seldom here ;)) DiLuna25 15:10, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

yes... I suppose it was too much of a coincidence. but i don't blame you for not twigging. when coincidences seems too coincidental, i tend to discard them myself :) oh, and thanks for getting rid of the weird box round my name on Snopake's user talk. I didn't know how to do it myself! DiLuna25 15:37, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

shamelessly, i hope! How else is an author to prosper without a little plugging (or a lot, for that matter) :) but i didn't know Halo had been plugging it - how sweet of him.

Dare i ask... has the plugging done any good? DiLuna25 15:52, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wahey!! Result! :) *grins stupidly at this small, but significant literary victory* DiLuna25 15:58, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hehehe - just seen your TOK on your wishlist - cheers :) but as to Snopake - I'm not being coy, or "hmm, will-she won't-she" tantalising, but I honestly don't know if she's coming back or not. At the mo, she's just taking a good long break. Sorry not to have anything more positive to say! DiLuna25 00:38, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Take a much-needed break, mate, but come back. I did, too. It's almost impossible to stay away, and Wikipedia needs you. Chacor 00:40, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Having seen the latest edit to your userpage, and having read the relevant section at WP:AN, I must say I feel very disappointed in Nathan and very, very sorry for you. Take care, mate, if you decide not to return (but please, I hope you do). Chacor 03:26, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OMG Your gone

I've been lurking your userpage for ages, and I talked to you on MSN once. And now you're gone... *runs away crying*

--PEAR 01:33, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Will, I'm not sure what all this is about, other than what I read on AN, but I want to offer you my support, and say that I'm sorry for the distress this must have caused you. Hope to see you back again. Take care. AnnH ♫ 12:25, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

unfair blocking

Why was nathan (User:Nathanrdotcom) blocked for something that happened outside wikipedia? he emailed me last night about the situation that happened....frankly, i'm fed up with wikipedia's administrators flaunting policy and openly breaking rules while telling others not to. i don't even undrestand what he did that broke ANY rules. so...if i were to do something somewhere else, i would be punished here on wikipedia? i just want to find answers for my friend, that's all. User:Raccoon Fox • Talk • Stalk 10:51, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The block has been upheld by senior Wikipedians, and is now no longer in Will's hands. AnnH ♫ 12:23, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. I won't press this issue if it's very sensitive or if it's a powder keg, ready to explode into something nasty. User:Raccoon Fox • Talk • Stalk 18:04, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Non departure.

Hi Will, don't worry, I'm not leaving this place, I just need to clear my head, etc. Th ε Halo ^Θ 12:20, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your departure.

Hey there Sceptre, just thought I'd drop a line to say that it is a shame to see you leave, Wikipedia keeps losing great contributors like you, and it's a shame. Anyway, I hope things get better for you on and off wiki, and that we will see you again before too long. :) All the best -- Bane s 13:18, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

August Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: To-Do List
The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.

The last AC meeting (full log)
In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed! The In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created. Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter. Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program. There is a page for discussing the front page redesign.

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

A smile for you

I present to you the Purple Barnstar for having to deal with so much personal stress and not being too corrupted by it. You used to have a place to put these, but your userpage is not that big anymore, so I will put it here. Please come back!!

Perfectly percolated coffee, Esperanza's own blend.

Sorry to hear about the stuff you have gone through and are still going through. It will get better. In the meantime, here's some more coffee to cheer you up :-). Go ahead, have a cup, talk it over. Thisthema n 18:12, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Taking over block

Will, Yesterday, I found wikipedia review, and after reading the junk there, I feel that it might be better if someone else takes over the block of nathan. If you like me to do that, let me know. -- Kim van der Linde ^{at venus} 13:11, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Something nice....

Thanks Will. Good to see you editing a bit again, and sorry we've seemed to miss each other talking wise a bit lately, but as you can see from my contribs, I haven't had much time to myself recently. I only just logged onto the Wiki a short while ago for the first time today, as a matter of fact! We will talk at some point, but in the mean time, thanks very much :) Th ε Halo ^Θ 23:10, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Requested revert

Thank you for reverting my talk page per instructions during my wikibreak :). NoSeptember 04:07, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Just wanted you to know..

that I do care about you, Snopake, Halo and Phaedriel (anyone else entangled in this incident). Not really sure what happened, but I guess that will remain a mystery. I'm sorry for ever for making you feel like that you were not my friend or that I didn't care, but I do care because all I wanted for this incident to end, keep quiet and hopefully work itself out to the point where we (meaning everyone involved) could be friends again, but I guess that didn't work like I planned it, eh? I wish that you or Snopake could have responded to my e-mails, but I guess you deleted them on sight, I suppose, because I know you would respond if you read them. Not really sure what else to say but I hope you and Snopake are happy together. Regards, — Moe Epsilon 04:06 August 22 '06

Recent reversion

Could you possibly explain why in reintroducing something that you felt the need to blank another comment? [1]. I'm also curious why you marked the edit as minor as reintroducing an entire section whether your felt it shouldn't have been removed or not is hardly a minor edit.--Crossmr 02:00, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
