- Well, thanks Gaff! This would have been much more useful if it had come when I had actually signed up; as it is I've been registered for several weeks. Thanks for the thought, anyway...maybe I should make a user page to avoid situations like this in the future...
Why thank you for the barnstar! It feels great to see my work is appreciated. Caim 05:39, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
- Just giving credit where it's due :D Don't forget to put it on your main user page. The Last Melon 05:39, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Don't give people an reason to oppose your rfa man, people will oppose for anything (I know it's stupid but it's the way things have gone) So yeah, just a heads up -- Tawker 05:38, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
- Er...rfa? Let me check the page and see if there's anything there that explains what you're talking about...The Last Melon 05:49, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
- Ah, I see. Well, geez...some people just can't take a joke. The Last Melon 05:54, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
The Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit project is under consideration to be moved to {{inactive}} and/or {{historical}} status. Another proposal is to delete or redirect the project. You have been identified as a project member and your input as to this matter would be welcomed at WT:CVU#Inactive.3F and at the deletion debate. Thank you!

2007 Burmese anti-government protests edit
I have undone your capitalization, that is for proper titles. In this case, there is not an official title, though the moniker "Saffron Revolution" is often used. Probably there won't be an official title unless and until something else breaks on the scene. Thanks for your other work, though! Chris 21:43, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
Gerald Zavorsky edit
Why'd you undo my incredible story about Gerry Z and me sneaking into the Uffizi and the Galleria dell'Accademia? You claim to have a sense of humor. So not true.
- Yes, I do have a sense of humour. That wasn't particularly funny. Although, if you want me to prove that I do...
- An Irishman,an Englishman, and a Scotsman are all working for a construction company building a skyscraper, and make a habit of sitting on a high beam to eat lunch together. After a few weeks of work they start griping about their lunches.
- "Not tuna again!" cries the Irishman, opening his lunchbox. "My wife's made me another tuna fish sandwich!"
- "Not ham again!" cries the Englishman, opening his lunchbox. "My wife always makes me ham! I'm getting sick of it!"
- "Peanut butter?" moans the Scotsman, opening his lunchbox. "I'm sick and tired of peanut butter and jam!"
- Thus whining, they eat their lunches and get on with work. The next day, they find themselves back on the high beam again and once again, find themselves with the same old sandwiches.
- "Fellas," says the Irishman, "That does it. If I get another tuna sandwich tomorrow, I'm jumping from this beam and ending it all right then and there."
- "You know," says the Englishman, "If I get another ham sandwich, I'll be right behind you."
- "Well," says the Scotsman, "If I get another peanut butter sandwich, boys, I'll jump with you."
- The next day the three of them come to lunch with some trepidition. The Irishman opens his lunchbox first.
- "Tuna again!" He cries, "I bet you that in hell they make you eat tuna sandwiches for eternity. Here's hoping I'll see you all in heaven!" he declares, and then jumps to his death.
- "Ham!" roars the Englishman. "Friend, you were wrong. In hell, they make you eat ham." And he jumps.
- The Scotsman opens his lunchbox and rolls his eyes. Without any further ado, he jumps.
- A few days later, the widows of the three men gather at the funeral to piece things together.
- "I thought he loved tuna!" wails the Irish man's wife.
- "I always made sure we were well-stocked with ham," weeps the Englishman's wife, "because I thought the highlight of his day was getting a ham sandwich for lunch."
- "I don't get it," says the Scotsman's wife, still looking confused. "He always made his own lunches."

No problem. ; ) -Anonymous Vandal Smasher
- Anonymous Vandal Smasher? Bah! How are you going to make a name for yourself if you aren't registered, hmm? Real men (or women, depending on your gender) make Wikipedia accounts! The Last Melon (talk) 00:22, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

The file File:Oriental Pearl Tower ground.JPG has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Unused. Tower clipped at the top. Can be replaced with better files at c:Category:Oriental Pearl Tower.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --Minorax«¦talk¦» 11:00, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
