Your VandalProof Application edit

Dear Vanis314,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.1 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that for security reasons, VandalProof's creator requires it's users to have made 250 edits to articles, which you have not. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. - Glen TC (Stollery) 13:34, 25 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

WP:CVU status edit

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!

why are you sending me emails? edit

Dear 19 year old Marquette, Mich. student. One of my Army buddies attended your school. Best wishes on your studies. Sending notices to 69 year old folks like myself, with 50 years of experience researching topics that you are only now being introduced to, that I have unfairly edited a topic --- a topic that you have failed to mention --- is odd, and should stop!

Again, best wishes on gaining a broad education. We all need to study many topics to get ahead in this world.
