Guy Chapman suggested I ask you to review the materials relative to the Southern Cherokee Nation dispute to determine of non-Federally recognized tribes should be included in the article on ]. I think my views on the matter are well known.

I stand slack-jawed. An openly disruptive, malicious individual like JVM is indulged and cossetted, I get obscenities screeched at me. Business as usual ] 18:47, 30 May 2007 (UTC) | |||
* I'm sorry, but JVM's list of offenses is a mile long and it takes only a cursory glance at them to realize that unblocking him was an extremely foolish move. The consensus on the talk page certainly did not look like it supported unblocking him. He has been extremely disruptive, tried to make up fake policies about "financial contributors", and created a firestorm of controversy everywhere he goes, sapping the time and effort of contributors which could be far better spent elsewhere. The consensus was almost universal that maintaining the indefinite block on him was the right thing to do, but, instead, we roll over and give him a one-more-final-twentieth-positively-last-chance which he has done absolutely nothing to earn. For pointing this out, I get told to "fuck off" and we all waste more time and energy on this malignant troll. It's ridiculous. It's absurd. A sane, clear-eyed look at the evidence reveals exactly what sort of individual JVM is and why unblocking him was an absolutely indefensible decision. ] 19:07, 30 May 2007 (UTC) |

!Oh my! Thank you so much, Phaedriel! Unfortunately we did not have much interaction before you took your break (and had your beautiful daughter!) but I have heard so many lovely things about you from Kyoko and Riana, and I see you around Spring's talkpage all the time. I would be honoured if in the future I could get to know you better; I can't think of a nicer, kinder person out there :) Give your daughter a hug and kiss on the cheek for me, and I'm sending a hug to you too! Thank you again, you certainly cheered up my day ^_^ — Editor at Large 15:50, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Another Awesome WikipedianI have a few others up my sleeve after this one. ;) — $PЯINGrαgђ 18:46, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
A word about the image for today's Wikipedian: You can never have too much Bougeareau ;) — $PЯINGrαgђ 17:22, 24 May 2007 (UTC) A Penny for your ThoughtsHello again Phaedriel, hope you are doing well. I would like to request your opinion on a quick, simple matter. On Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Council/Proposals I put up a discussion about making a Wikiproject Capitals. I've had some comments suggesting a taskforce of Wikiproject Cities. However, I want some more comments from skilled Wikipedians to decide upon a Wikiproject, Task Force or just nothing. Cheers! •Felix• 14:43, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Help!I'd like you to please see this. I'm not exactly sure what this guy's issue is, and I most likely didn't respond to it properly, but I think this could use the help of a loving person to set this straight. I'm not going to lie when I say that this person didn't give me the warm fuzzies when I first encountered them, then they leave me a weird message like this. What to do?

Thank youMy page!Phaedriel, I will never be able to thank you enough for my new user page! Hooray! I woke up this morning, turn on my computer checked my talk page kind of groggy, went to get my breakfast and halfway through my breakfast I thought, "Did my talk page have a new header?" So, being my desk also doubles as my dining room table i checked it out! It is better than I could have imagined. Thank you for your hard work. I would give you an awary but you already have plenty! Thank you again and again! -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 12:50, 25 May 2007 (UTC) My userpageThanks for reverting vandalism to my userpage, much appreciated!--NeoNerd 13:12, 25 May 2007 (UTC) Thanks ...... for looking out for me! I was in the middle of a reply, so I posted it anyway. I think the editor in question needs to hear it! Thanks again :) - Alison ☺ 17:20, 25 May 2007 (UTC) (BTW, you're BOLDER than I anyday. Super job on the userpage) Message.It seems other people seem to tell you about their E-mails, so I thought I'd do the same with this one. It's quite amusing (but still to do with Misplaced Pages). Acalamari 17:25, 25 May 2007 (UTC) Hey PhaedrielHello again, I'm still thinking about whether to leave, but the ArbCom has not make the decision on the cases, which will determine if I still have faith on Misplaced Pages's fairness. So I'm waiting. Here is an award for you. However, I gave an jest award for User:Jayjg, but he angrily removed it and said I was harassing him, can you take a look, thanks! Wooyi 18:16, 25 May 2007 (UTC) KissyKitty extends his best regards, btw! :) El_C 19:35, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
A Misplaced Pages QuestionHey, I have noticed in the past couple days in a row, that on history pages and my watchlist, I will see a "Due to high database server lag, changes newer than 30 seconds may not be shown in this list" tag. This is new and I was wondering if it was something that happens during the summer months or if perhaps Misplaced Pages might have finally outgrew it's server. Just wondering. Take Care....NeutralHomer 22:55, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Why was the picture deleted?Hello Sharon K., I followed the instructions very carefully while adding the picture to the "Sadiq Ali" article. Please let me know why you deleted it. Please email me at onestopx@shaw.ca if you want confirmation that it's a genuine picture and that there are no copyright issues. Thankyou and have a great day.--Kangan 00:26, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the day!Hey Phaedriel! Thank you very much for the day! Sceptre informed me of this neat honor. I'm not even sure what I can say, Phaedriel, except thank you. I'm pretty sure I'm not like the wise person described in the poem, but it's quite nice that you would say so. The little Asian girl looks just like me! ;) (Well, ok, not so much. But she's adorable). Again, thank you very much for your kindness. Best wishes and happy editing, Firsfron of Ronchester 03:05, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

A sockpuppetHi, I think I have founded a sockpuppet, here's my evidence but if you read the text carful you will see he say he wanted to be a Good wikipidian and his sockpuppet name is User:Goodwikipidian and he left me a message on my talk page and request that Dom58! was unblock.If you look at his user page he award himsef a Lostbarnstar and if you look at his User contributions his second contribution and read the text it should said "Created page with {{userboxtop|Dom58!}}" and so on, but if you look at the name of it, the userboxtop it say Dom58!. Could you please help me see if he is a sockpuppet,Thank you-Arnon Chaffin 14:46, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Sous le ciel de Paris...Il n'y a plus de vandalisme :) Damn, my French sucks...Thank you, that was quick. It's a shame that some pages are such vandal magnets.

I thought you had left. Thanks for the message on my talk, I greatly appreciate it. ⇒ SWATJester 19:01, 26 May 2007 (UTC) "Being indian"Please clean this up so that it isn't just a rant attacking Christians, Whites, and the US government. Misplaced Pages is not a soapbox. Statements like "It is having a Christian missionary tell you it is wrong to believe in more than one Divine Being, then listen to him tell you about God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Ghost, the Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, St. Patrick, St. Christopher, St. Francis, etc." and "It is feeling the stares of all the whites in any public place you walk into." are inappropriate. Thank you.--70.243.82.59 20:23, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Sorry Phaedriel, I did not receive your email as of now, just checked the mailbox. Can you please send it again. I apologize for the troubles. Thanks! Wooyi 23:04, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
I knew it.I knew this would happen. For your information, that user should be blocked indefinitely, as it's the same user as "Back to the Noble Ocean". This user also seems to create user names about "going down", and also about boating. Acalamari 23:28, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank youThat was incredibly nice, Sharon! :) MaxSem 09:08, 27 May 2007 (UTC) Thank you, dear :)My dear Sharon, what can I say? HiI really love your Talk Page design! I was wondering if I could please use a similar design to yours on my talk page. Please feel free to say no! Regards.ˉˉ╦╩ 16:30, 27 May 2007 (UTC) Re: Happy Aero's Day!Wow, what a totally unexpected and lovely surprise to find when checking my messages on this cold and wet Bank Holiday Monday morning! You are truly a wonderful person, Phaedriel, and it's a pleasure to know that you're somewhere out there spreading joy and enchantment with your words and deeds. I hope that you have a wonderful week! (aeropagitica) 07:58, 28 May 2007 (UTC) You just made me cry - that is such a sweet thing to say, thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm so glad that you're back with us, spreading love and helping those in need. It's people like you who take a moment to stop the world in order to say something special that makes all the hard work and thankless slogging worthwhile. So kind, xxx.

I am not a sock puppetHello my good friend. Can you please un-block me? I was only trying to stick up for my friend. I don't think I break any wikipedia rules in doing so. So can you please un-block me? I have had to use a IP adress as I'm Not a sock pupperter Thank You 81.149.73.210 14:47, 28 May 2007 (UTC) BeautifulThank you Sharon! It's beautiful ... what a nice surprise to see on my watchlist first thing in the morning! You have a real talent at page design; I truly appreciate your "sprinkling of magic dust" ... warmly, Antandrus (talk) 15:35, 28 May 2007 (UTC) SorryMy user name is goodwikipidian Thank You 81.149.73.210 17:12, 28 May 2007 (UTC) Phaedriel.....Hello! I heard awhile ago you said you sent me an email, but I have not received it. I assume it was lost on the way. What was in it? Wooyi 17:51, 28 May 2007 (UTC) Yeah....
RFAThanks so much for supporting me in the RFA. I am grateful for your response, and it really means a lot to be appreciated. Thanks again! hmwithtalk 04:17, 29 May 2007 (UTC) Thank you...I can't begin to tell you how deeply moved I am, Sharon :) And since I am just crazy about flowers, I can't help but giving you more of them, for I believe flowers have a language of their own and they can express what words simply cannot do... Aw shucks, these things can never match your beauty I see Hey there!... I so owe you an email. It's 3am here and I'm not sleeping but my brain's largely switched off. Will catch up with you tomorrow :) Thank you for the lovely email gift! - Alison ☺ 09:52, 29 May 2007 (UTC) More Sockpuppets?I see these two names User:Past my boat on the river and User:Wind in the sails and they look like sockpuppets because they both vandalizise User talk:Phaedriel for some reason if I'm wrong please let me know,Thank you-Arnon Chaffin 13:15, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
ThanksFor the quick protect on Rani Mukherjee. Haphar 17:13, 29 May 2007 (UTC) poem by C. Brontë about A. Brontë's deathHi Sharon, I noticed your tribute to Anne Brontë, and I thought I would bring this poem to your attention. It's by Anne's sister Charlotte. It is a very mournful poem. --Kyoko 17:25, 29 May 2007 (UTC) On the Death of Anne Brontë There's little joy in life for me, Msnbc.comHi. I oppose the full protection of Msnbc.com. The "vandalism" that the two users were reverting wasn't vandalism. It was a good faith edit by a new user for which MOS style complaints (mentioned on the user's talk page) aren't a valid reason for editing and "getting an article good before posting" (paraphrase of comment on talk page as well) isn't anything like Misplaced Pages. While I agree the article needed work, references, and MOS and other improvements, the "edit war" could have been much better resolved by the "experienced" users talking to the user on the talk page or on their user page rather than protection and reverting with little (and harsh) comments. I left a note on one of the two's talk page about WP:BITE. Could you please unprotect the page (I realize it's only a day, but I don't think it should have been done at all) and restore the article that was there? Thank you for your time. MECU≈talk 18:33, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
What do you think?
Fantastic userpageGood morning! What a wonderful, pleasant surprise when I logged in and saw the new page! It's great. Your choice of colors is beautiful...not what I had mentioned, but better! You're the best, Phaedriel! AKRadecki 13:59, 30 May 2007 (UTC) Thank you...... for the kind and sweet words. You must have a shaman soul, as your comment would not have come in a better time for me. As if you knew I needed it. Thank you again. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 15:28, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
About the BrontësDear Sharon (or do you prefer Phaedriel on-wiki? I forget), I'm glad that you appreciated the poem. Your message reminded me of a documentary I once saw on TV about the Brontës. I think it was on the History Channel. I don't remember much from the show, but among other things, it discussed how one sibling's difficulties would be reflected in the writings of another. I wish I could remember more of what was said. I have to confess my ignorance of Anne's novels; I know they exist, but I just haven't read them. --Kyoko 15:36, 30 May 2007 (UTC) Dear PhaedrielDearest Phaedriel. Thank you so, so, so much! You have made my day! I really appreciate it! Once again, thank you! You really are a wonderful person and please, if you need anything, don't hesitate to ask. You are glorious! Lots of love! xxx ˉˉ╦╩ 15:41, 30 May 2007 (UTC) I think I'm giving you too many awards...
It's okay.It's okay Phaedriel, I'm not worrying about him. :) He will just get blocked by the administrators who watch my user and talk pages. In the end, he will just get fed up and do something else. He will just be blocked on sight (well, unless it's me who notices him trolling again; I can't block him). As for dropping something by my mailbox, I assume you mean E-mail but I may be wrong; I'll wait and see what you send. :) Acalamari 16:50, 30 May 2007 (UTC) Got your mail!Dear Phaedriel, I got your mail and I will reply when I can. I'm still trying to figure out what my next big project will be. I got a bit tired dealing with The Lais of Marie de France. I might end up working on the Roman de la Rose after all, though it will take a bit of work. I've never read the whole thing before, so that has to be done first. If you look at the article, you can see that I've done a little bit on it, not much so far. For bigger projects where most of the work is from scratch, I tend to compose my text offline. Love, Kyoko 17:13, 30 May 2007 (UTC) Thanks for the lovely note!I had just returned from a brisk walk through the hills around Hollywood when I saw I had a message here. There's an interesting weather phenomenon in LA this time of year called June gloom. As I read your note, the gray clouds burned away and the sun started to shine through. Quite a coincidence. The world is a lovely place for those who allow it to be! Thanks again for the poem, and if you feel like giving my User page a facelift, you are welcome to! Just keep the notice at the top that it's a user page, and no pink or orange, please! Only if you are in the mood, too. I'd rather see you spreading more wikilove!
