Thank you kindly for registering. -Toptomcat (talk) 17:19, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Actually, Toptomcat, I was already registered and just experimenting with raw signature fonts when (after a gazillion complaints) I realized that I had not replaced the "User:" link template and my user name. If this ever happens again to anyone else just ask if the "User:" link template is missing from their raw signature and provide a cut and paste example of the "User:" link template such as" '''[[User:John Bot III|John Bot III]] ([[User talk:John Bot III|talk]])''' to expedite the correction. Thanks. -- Taxa (talk) 01:37, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi - please clarify on ref desk talk page

Hello, could you comment at Wikipedia_talk:Reference_desk#User:Taxa - specifically can you explain about your changing of signature [ http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Humanities&diff=prev&oldid=210539301].

Also can you respond to the suggestion that you are using sockpuppets which is not acceptable as some users think you are using a sockpuppet. If you are not doing this it might be helpful to demonstrate your IP address to show that it is not the same as the currently blocked IP address User:70.171.239.21. Additionally if you share a computer etc it would be a good time to reveal that, or if you are associated with any of the blocked users mentioned on the above link on the ref desk talk page.

I appreciate that you are entitled to privacy, and it is not any sort of requirement for you to do this.

However the current confusion is disruptive, and it would be very helpful of you if you can help resolve this issue.

Thanks.83.100.251.196 (talk) 14:35, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
