Bunnies r fun
You reverted a change I made on the easter bunny topick. Fact is that the easter bunny may be know as spring bunny in some cities due separation of church and state, yet to imply that its sometimes know as the spring bunny is not as accurate as to indicate that it is know as the spring bunny in a few cities. I will start a discussion for this change on the easter bunny page and refrain to change it until then. I'm also removing your post from my page. Thank you.

Something super-short and blatantly vandalism like that can easily be speedied. No need for AFD. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 18:17, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
re nautical defcon template
Oh, OK, I have put in motion the procedure to have this fixed (an admin or filemover has to do it, so it might take a little while). It happened because there were two identical files with different names, and when that happens one gets deleted automatically, and in this case it was the one used by the DefCon template. But this won't happen again. (I'm not sure what happened to your previous request, maybe it slipped under my radar, sorry.) Thanks for pointing this out! Herostratus (talk) 17:53, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Your recent comment and edits to my talk page
You recently misidentified my recent edits on my talk page as vandalism. I assure you, this is not the case as per:
Talk page vandalism Illegitimately deleting or editing other users' comments. However, it is acceptable to blank comments constituting vandalism, internal spam, or harassment or a personal attack. It is also acceptable to identify an unsigned comment. Users are also permitted to remove comments from their own user talk pages. A policy of prohibiting users from removing warnings from their own talk pages was considered and rejected on the grounds that it would create more issues than it would solve.
I am exercising my right to remove comments from my talk page as you may do with yours and this comment. If there is anything else you would like to speak with me about, please don't hesitate to ask me! 96.52.140.81 (talk) 19:22, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) While removing comments is allowed, refactoring or altering the meaning of other users comments isn't. Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 19:25, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
- You appear to be absolutely right. I have changed my procedure for deleting comments on my talk page and am, when choosing to, deleting comments in their entirety, including the signature. I trust there will be no further problems between us. 96.52.140.81 (talk) 19:47, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges.
For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.
If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Speedy deletion of Tremar Coombe declined
At the time you nominated it as having no context [2] the first sentence was "Tremar Coombe is situated in the Caradon District north of Liskeard. " Not a lot to go on, I'll grant you that, but it does establish a context and I was easily able to clean it up and find a reliable source to verify it's existence and expand the article slightly. Please be more careful when nominating new articles for speedy deletion, often they are poorly written but perfectly valid topics such as this, which was easily established by a Google search. Thanks. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:18, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

Nothing wrong with user name
There is nothing wrong with my user name, Thomas was taken and I added my last name to it. (My last name is "Bum") I know it is a silly last name. I do not need to switch accounts, I do not want to go through all the work to change my name. I hope you understand, many people are concerned with the "Bum" part.Thomasbum98 (talk) 21:18, 22 April 2011 (UTC)Thomasbum98
- Also there is no "Thomas Bum" I made it up a few years ago to avoid identity theft, and the "Bum" part does not mean what many people think it means.Thomasbum98 (talk) 19:33, 23 April 2011 (UTC)Thomasbum98
Hey Master, those edits by User:Firebuild, there is no way they were vandalism. Please see WP:VANDAL. I have removed the highest level warning, and left the editor a note explaining that you would explain to them why their edits were reverted--it is obvious that you're dealing with a newbie editor who is trying to do something with references but doesn't know what, and instead of calling them a vandal you might try explaining to them what needs to be done and what they did incorrectly. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 21:36, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit that you made to Beer sommelier has been reverted or removed because it was a misuse of a warning or blocking template. Please use the user warnings sandbox for any tests you may want to do, or take a look at our introduction page to learn more about contributing to the encyclopedia. Thank you. PLEASE stop accusing that editor of vandalism! Drmies (talk) 21:40, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Teleperformance Page
Hi Mayhem Master. How are you doing?
I am editing the Teleperformance page and there´s a single lawsuit article that I removed and you just reversed to it´s primary condition, something that I totally comprehend.
I just ask you to consider the fact that if every single legal action of every business company were on Wikipedia, people would be unable to read 0,1% of it´s content. The inclusion of the Class Action Lawsuit against Teleperformance was a effort to decrease it´s public image by someone with no capacity to sintetize the meaning of "logic". I hope I can read your opinion and if I can help you to solve the question, I will be glad to give you my full attention.
I thank you very much for the time you spent reading my argument.
Best regards.
Fernando.
Clarification
Hi. Thanks for your comment on my talk. The page on Eloy Velasco did not have any content. It just redirected to a page on the Bush six, that is only marginally related to this character. What I did was to remove this redirection and gave the article some substantial content, by adding basic biographical data, and why this person is known. As you can see, I kept a link to the Bush six, and placed this information in context. The change you refer to is when I erased the redirection, which was the only command in the page. Next time I will not erase information, without substituting with content, and explaining the change. --Albtho (talk) 18:01, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
