Hi. Wanted to let you know that I warned User:TrinityC about making accusations of sockpuppetry against you. I didn't see any evidence that you are related to the Matthew Vassar vandal. I also advised them against placing their own made up vandalism notice on the page, so hopefully that puts a stop to that.
- UPDATE: We now have proof that User:Master and Commander is a sockpuppet of the Matthew Vassar vandal. See this edit [1] where he forgot to login and left his IP address (and then corrected it), and then examine this edit [2] from that same IP address, vandalizing the Matthew Vassar article. Please ban this user and delete his edits (and current VfD votes). Thanks! -- TrinityC 11:15, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
I have restored your votes on those AFD pages that they were removed from, and cautioned those involved to refrain from sockpuppet accusations against you without proof. Even if you are the same person as the anon who vandalized Matthew Vassar I don't see anything in your contributions recently that shows bad faith editing (and you certainly shouldn't be banned now for something that happened 4 months ago if that was you). Sorry for the troubles. --Syrthiss 16:11, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Tonight Show
editHi. What's your source for the episode count for The Tonight Show article? As I indicated on the article's talk page, there's no way only 3,000 episodes have been broadcast since 1953, particularly since there were at least 4,500 episodes broadcast during Carson's time alone. I believe the actual number should be closer to 10,000. If you're only counting the number of Leno episodes, this needs to be indicated. Cheers! 23skidoo 15:13, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

- I saw that - thanks! I'm pretty certain that somewhere there's a book that says how many episodes were broadcast up until the end of Carson's time; if I can find it, I'll add the two together. If Leno has done over 3,000 shows in 11 1/2 years on the air, then calculating back to 1953 we're probably looking at between 12,000-15,000 installments, even taking into account Best of Carson reruns and preemptions...whew! 23skidoo 07:11, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
