I'm really angry about my record on here and the false information posted about me and would like it removed otherwise you'll be hearing from my lawyer. Post the correct information or dont post anything at all please.

My RfA

Thank you for supporting me in my RfA, which passed with a count of (154/3/2). I appreciate the community's trust in me, and I will do my best to be sure it won't regret handing me the mop. I am honored by your trust and your support. Again, thank you. –Juliancolton ^Tropical ^Cyclone 19:23, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I need adoption!

I should be able to work this out on my own but... seem to have hit a dead end. Please help!

I would like to see how my first articles go. I would like to write 3 for now. I can't be a fulltime admin/edit/... person, but I can make more contributions after I've learnt how to do them properly.

? Still keen?

RE: ACC Tool

Yep. Confirmed. PoinDexta1 | Talk to Me | 22:16, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: ACC

Sorry about that. Did read the documentation, just forgot what buttons I shouldn't press, and what I should do when similarities arise. Currently memorising documentation of by heart and promise to do better. Sorry Olly¹⁵⁰ 22:27, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Will know in future. Olly¹⁵⁰ 22:47, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Adoption?

Hello Ryan,

Could you possibly adopt me? I know it's not normally done this way, but we've had some contact in the past so I just wondered.

I just want to get back into good standing and regain (or just gain) the community's trust. I also want to branch out from trams etc and leave tram stuff to my SPA, TramMan.

Many thanks,

B G 7even 07:56, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Ryan,

From what i've heard from various sources both before and after the incident is that i haven't had any trust :(.

I suppose it will be more mentoring that full-on adoption, as i'm aware of a lot of the policies etc in place ;). I do need help however with keeping cool, agf and other such things where I have had trouble in the past ;).

Cheers,

Re:Barnstar

Thanks a lot for the Barnstar!! LeaveSleaves (talk) 20:06, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And also for reverting vandalism on my user page! LeaveSleaves (talk) 20:11, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

your userpage

Just so you know, I semi-protected your userpage. Apparently the previous protection was lost when the page was deleted. If you don't want it protected, just lemmeno. Cheers! J.delanoy ^gabs _adds 21:18, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, it's protected. J.delanoy ^gabs _adds 21:21, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks again —— Possum • (talk) 21:24, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't template the regulars

It was probably an overzealous use of Huggle, but please be careful to check what you are reverting and don't template the regulars. – ukexpat (talk) 21:37, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's what happens when two Huggle users try to revert the same edit, my apologies :) —— Possum • (talk) 21:39, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Accepted! – ukexpat (talk) 21:46, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Shmoo

Hi Ryan. Thanks for undoing the inexplicable vandalism on the Shmoo page. The entry was carefully researched, which involved reviewing more than four decades worth of material. It was entirely retooled and rewritten by myself and my pal, Surfer Joe (along with Li'l Abner, Al Capp, Fearless Fosdick, Sadie Hawkins Day, Dogpatch and Lower Slobbovia). Unfortunately, your graphic breakdown of "What Wikipedia Has Become" is all too true. Best, Mike Fontanelli — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.133.217.98 (talk • contribs)

Possum

I'm pretty sure you can be renamed, but it will separate you from your SUL, and you may meet some usurpation problems in other wikis. Are you sure you want to proceed? bibliomaniac 1 5 16:44, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah that's a shame. As much as I'm desperate for my name to be changed, I find the SUL very helpful and I didn't know that renames detach you from your global account. If I were to be renamed, is there a way of reinitialising the SUL like I did when it was originally implemented? The only projects I contribute to are en, simple, commons, meta and rarely the Turkish wikipedia. —— Possum • (talk) 17:07, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As of late the only way I'm aware of is renaming your accounts and merging them. bibliomaniac 1 5 03:08, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - possible shared ip

Thanks for the revert on my talk page, but the IP was telling me that they had not made the reverts. I don't know as it's not listed as being a shared ip, and the person didn't indicate that they were using a shared ip, so I basically just told them to create an account. Just giving you the heads up on a possible shared ip. Olly¹⁵⁰ 22:59, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Possum, eh?

Omai, iz dat a new name u got dere? It's funny that of all the years I've known you, I've never called you "Possum", yet apparently many people in RL do. — Kendra Michele — 00:47, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yes, Possum is my nickname :) Possum (talk) 00:48, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Goodness, you're up late, yo. I bet it's because you can't sleep because you're so excited for your fan meet up of JMF. — Kendra Michele — 00:55, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is going to be difficult to get used to. All these renames are messing with my mind. First Jennavecia, then Coffee, then Caulde, now you. What's next?

(User rename log); 23:10 . . Rdsmith4 (Talk | contribs | block) has renamed User:Jimbo Wales to "Grawp" (3,925 edits. Reason: WP:USURP)

:D J.delanoy ^gabs _adds 01:01, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Haha except my usurp didn't really go to plan and I still have a lot of work to do do rearrange everything. Still so many redlinks! :S Possum (talk) 01:03, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh and the day Jimbo is renamed to Grawp will be epic. In fact, I reckon Jimbo really is Grawp in disguise!! Possum (talk) 01:05, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Heh. Now that would be hilarious. Except that I, who know literally nothing about PHP, could come up with many more creative ways to vandalize than the technique Grawp uses, so I would assume that Jimbo would be much more clever and insidious if he ever decided to create a vandalism account.

And in all seriousness, I have no question that Jimbo has another account here on Wikipedia that he edits under normally. I mean, can you imagine him using, say, Twinkle or Huggle and making a mistake? Or imagine him trying to enter into a discussion anywhere. There's no way that he can really express his opinion in a hard-fast way in such things as content dispute because people (somewhat rightly, I suppose) take his word as law. So in order to actually enter into meaningful contact, he would have no choice but to edit under a pseudonym. Given that fact, now all we have to do is figure out who his sockpuppet is... >_> And I actually do have one person who seems to fit the bill in my mind. J.delanoy ^gabs _adds 01:15, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You sly, sly dog, J.delanoy. :) bibliomaniac 1 5 03:13, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Now you've gotten me curious! --Possum (talk) 09:55, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, weird.

I saw this... perhaps you might want to take a look? Prince of Canada^{t | c} 09:42, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you...

... for sorting the vandalism in my userspace. Haven't quite got to the bottom of it yet but it seems to be eminating from Manchester & I suspect of my speedy deletion a few months ago of an article about a Man U fanzine. Anyway, thanks for the reverts, much appreciated. Kind regards, Nancy ^talk 17:59, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hehe.

Thanks, it was fast. PoinDexta1 | Talk to Me | 22:28, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thanks for removing the vandalism from my talk page. It is much appreciated! Alanraywiki (talk) 22:39, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Was no problem at all :) ——Possum (talk) 22:42, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Osment

Hi, are you interested in helping me work on this article? I aiming for FA, what do you think? -- how do you turn this on 23:01, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know, I'm no personal fan, but I had it on my watchlist (can't remember why) and saw you making frequent changes so I thought I'd lend a hand. It'll be difficult to get it to FA considering the article's current state but GA might be doable. ——Possum (talk) 23:03, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I don't think it'll be too hard. Actually most of the information we want is already there, just needs copyediting and sourcing properly. -- how do you turn this on 23:07, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I can help out but I really don't want to commit myself fully as I can't stand the guy :-/ ——Possum (talk) 23:09, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well he's not someone I'm all too passionate about either, but still, it's an article all the same. If you're interested in helping that'd be great. Cheers! -- how do you turn this on 23:12, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, no problem ——Possum (talk) 23:13, 2 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Meh, no thanks, I question your reasons behind editing the project ——Possum (talk) 09:46, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bad revert

[1] This problem has been around in Huggle for a while. Please could you be more careful, or use another tool ? Philip Trueman (talk) 10:07, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Gah we reverted at the same time. My apologies! ——Possum (talk) 10:08, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
