Please unprotect or make the following changes:
- Remove entry at first section "More mature, sensible, realistic thoughts and actions"; this essentially uses the term itself as it's own definition.
- Standardize the ending of each item it that list; eg. period terminator or open-ended (period preferred).
- Mark the text "Many schools attempt to develop these feelings" with the 'weasel-inline' maintenance template; (no reference provided).
- Mark the text "Preteens are known for" with the 'weasel-inline' maintenance template.
Thanks, Jerry 03:37, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
- Also, the page does not seem to note the fact that it is protected (i.e. with {{Pp-dispute}}). And, "job" should not be capitalized. I assume preteens do not have Job aspirations. --Eliyak T·C 01:57, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
Welcome Message edit
Thanks for it. --Eye of the minD 21:34, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

User:Adloph vandalism edit
Hi there. Thanks for the advice. Bearian 13:31, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
- Even I misspelled the name correctly! :-) Bearian 13:33, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
I have never considered an RFA, although I might consider one in the future. Cheers, Lights (♣ • ♦) 14:37, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
RFA Thanks edit
My dear Wikipedian AndonicO,
Thank you for your participation in my RFA, which closed successfully with 36 supports, 3 opposed, and 1 neutral. No matter if you !voted support, oppose, neutral, or even if you just stopped by to make a comment, I thank you for taking the time to drop by. Since I am a new admin, if you have any suggestions or concerns, feel free to inform me of them. Thank you and good day.
Credits edit
This RFA thanks was inspired by The Random Editor, who in turn was inspired by Phaedriel's RFA thanks. So unfortunately this is not entirely my own design.
This end the usual RFA thanks spam. You may return to your regular editing now.
Same for you! edit

Page reversion edit
On User talk:Bobo192, AndonicO said:
Thanks for reverting my talk page. Quite interesting what those vandals say.
No problem - vandals are pretty much going on a spree tonight, it's sort of frustrating that these things happen but hey, anything to keep me awake at 3am on a Wednesday morning! Bobo. 01:49, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
On User talk:Bobo192, AndonicO said:
Ah, you've got me beat: earliest I've edited is 3:30 AM. Maybe tomorrow I'll wake up at 2.
Blame British summer time... or my fiancée, whichever is quickest! Seems like nobody has gotten up to any strange activity on your talk page for the time being, though I did just have to visit his contribs and revert some more... we'll see what happens. All the best. Bobo. 01:56, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for enacting semi-protection of Michelangelo. Cheers, JNW 02:27, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Excuse me, but you said that the article Barcelona is already protected and I think it is not protected... Thanks, --Xtv - (my talk) - (que dius que què?) 11:11, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
- Ok. Thanks! :-) --Xtv - (my talk) - (que dius que què?) 16:07, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Reply edit
I have heard both sides of that (blocked, banned). Is there a WP page which states it? Obviously it is good to leave the productive edits, which is why I didn't remove them. - Rjd0060 14:00, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for that page. Really clears things up. I didn't understand what you meant by this comment, but I got it now. - Rjd0060 14:11, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
About the graphic cards for crysis edit
So, should i add a second 7900GS or switch to the 8800gts 320mb? Cuz i can't spend a lot on 2 8800gts in SLI —Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.202.47.43 (talk) 18:05, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
I'm new to going on talk pages, please forgive me if I didnt reply to you correctly-- I think the ingle 8800gts will be better than two 7900gses in SLI. It'll probably pull less power, too. 71.249.93.141 02:33, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
Mediation on 'Richard Kim' Entry edit
Hi AndonicO, would you mind stepping in and mediating on the 'Richard Kim' (Karate) discussion page? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Richard_Kim_%28karate%29 You intervened previously, and it was very helpful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.168.238.7 (talk) 23:31, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:CCABTF-boxart.jpg edit
Thanks for uploading Image:CCABTF-boxart.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

Hi there, I noticed that this Ryan person is a friend of yours. Do you think he'll be back on the wiki eventually? -- 71.185.49.209 19:02, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
Banning threats edit
Why did you warn this IP on its talk page for adding an official link, which is well within WP:EL, to United States Army? The edit was well within Wikipedia guidelines and your scolding has no basis. If anything, you're the one being unconstructive. 69.234.151.19 23:59, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
Bioshock edit
Any particular reason why you twice removed one of my comments from this article? It was requesting clarification of the preceding sentence, which remains obtuse. Andplus 13:27, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

My RfA edit
I am also sad that my RfA wasn't successful. :( However, this gives me a chance to work on the things that the opposers mentioned so I can become a better user. :) I think some good can come of this. Captain panda 01:32, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Hello Andonic. You've just blocked two users reported to WP:AIV whose block requests I was about to decline. None of them is currently active/has vandalized after a last warning. I do not recommend blocking such users, as doing so encourages further reports to WP:AIV of users whom have not been properly warned and whose warnings have not been transgressed. This is not a rant. :-) Best regards, Húsönd 19:46, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
You protected a page for an inappropriate reason edit
Why did you protect the talk page for 64.221.248.17?
You stated "IP continually blanks own talk page" which is clearly allowed in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Talk_page_guidelines#Others.27_comments

Harmatchis edit
Hi! I created a page about a Egyptian god called Harmatchis. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmatchis%22 Would you mind editing it please? Thanks! Neptunekh (talk) 10:27, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
Excessive block length edit
30 years? That's an excessive block for what's probably just some teenager goofing around. This effectively tells someone that they're never welcomed back here. Why did you feel that such a long block length was necessary? Tijuana Brass (talk) 15:42, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
- Heh, if I can inspire an unintentional template review, then I feel validated. My concern is just that it shuts out the possibility of the editor to reform under their original username (well, at least for 30 years. maybe middle age'll straighten him out...).
- Anyway, no need for me to belabor my point any further. Thanks for the heads up on test5, which I didn't realize either. Tijuana Brass (talk) 20:00, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
Harmatchis edit
Hi! Could you please merge Harmatchis with the Horus page? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmatchis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horus Thanks! Neptunekh (talk) 17:17, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

League of Copyeditors roll call |
| Greetings from the League of Copyeditors. Your name is listed on our members page, but we are unsure how many of the people listed there are still active contributors to the League's activities. If you are still interested in participating in the work of the League, please follow the instructions at the members page to add your name to the active members list. Once you have done that, you might want to familiarise yourself with the new requests system, which has replaced the old /proofreading subpage. As the old system is now deprecated, the main efforts of the League should be to clear the substantial backlog which still exists there. The League's services are in as high demand as ever, as evinced by the increasing backlog on our requests pages, both old and new. While FA and GA reviewers regularly praise the League's contributions to reviewed articles, we remain perennially understaffed. Fulfilling requests to polish the prose of Wikipedia's highest-profile articles is a way that editors can make a very noticeable difference to the appearance of the encyclopedia. On behalf of the League, if you do consider yourself to have left, I hope you will consider rejoining; if you consider yourself inactive, I hope you will consider returning to respond to just one request per week, or as many as you can manage. Merry Christmas and happy editing, The League of Copyeditors. |

Hey AndonicO. Thank you for the heads up because in fact while I was doing that block, I was looking at two users' set of contributions, so I may have read the one for that user incorrectly. My apologies. What do you think I should do regarding that block? — E talk 01:58, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
