A-hah! I was accessing Wikipedia through AOL. I'll be sure to no longer do that. - Joe 00:50, 27 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

should all be ok now. Unfortunately some users such as Troll Pen0r! deliberately attempt to get as many autoblocks as possible to disrupt AOL users. Beyond you reporting the issue of such individuals to AOL there isn't much else to be done other than wait for the blocks to be noticed and removed. --pgk(talk) 22:33, 27 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Reply from Village Pump edit

(Crossposted from Wikipedia:Village pump (miscellaneous) per request) Special:Ancientpages normally allows this, but unfortunetly updates have been disabled since December because of the strain it puts on the servers, and a spot check of the articles showed most of them have been edited since the last update. I have no idea when or if it'll be updated again. BryanG(talk) 06:10, 18 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Flannery O'Connor edit

Thanks for the comment. I was inspired by the amazing book Flannery O'Connor: An Annotated Reference Guide to Criticism by R. Neil Scott, which proves that each of her stories deserves its own article. Unfortunately I no longer have the book, and I know nothing about literature. You should definitely contribute what you can. Wounder (talk) 09:00, 3 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
