If I left a message on your talk page, then I will be watching it for a while. So you can simply reply there, and the discussion will be in one place. Similarly, when an experienced editor comments here I will usually respond here. I do not use "talkback" templates, and it rarely if ever makes sense to leave me such templates.
JIDF
Hi and Happy New Year, The JIDF article is semi-protected for a month. I'm hoping to get some long-standing problems fixed during this time. I'm currently going through section by section proposing amendments. Please feel free to comment or add any ideas of your own.--Peter cohen (talk) 17:08, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
New ANI created.
I believe I should give you a heads-up on this ANI regarding Proofreader77 http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Proofreader77_Established_record_of_continuous_unrelenting_Disruptive_Editing
You should know...
...I kind of egged on Codex Til on the Fringe theory noticeboard regarding you and SA... :D Auntie E. (talk) 02:41, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
- Given a certain editor's knowledge of Jimbo's intentions and the fact that Misplaced Pages simply doesn't work that way it's probably best to let Jimbo know ASAP. I guess one is allowed to wonder if the editor gets the knowledge about his god's will with the same precision... Hans Adler 08:03, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
Creation according to Genesis FAQ
If you're interested in helping me with the FAQ for this article I'm working off of the following test page Nefariousski (talk) 19:42, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
Ancient Arabic units of measurement
Re your edit when I first tried to open the link it did not show me anything. If you beleive you have a reference that will support the article as written, add it to the article and correct or remove any errors you find. There are reference templates on my cite page. It is the article that needs referenced not the AfD. If I can be of any assistance let me know. Jeepday (talk) 00:29, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
- This is ridiculous. How about basing a deletion discussion on facts, research and policy rather than conjectures, assumptions and process wonkery? Hans Adler 01:09, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Passport
Several weeks ago, you expressed support for removing visa-free articles from passport pages. This discussion has been continuing from that point on, on Talk:Passport, and eventually only between three users. Several days ago, Ozguroot (talk · contribs), a suspected sockpuppet, canvassed 15 users, all who have expressed a negative viewpoint, to come to the discussion and utterly overwhelm a budding and tenuously reached compromise. This is the second time he has canvassed users to the dispute. Prior to the canvassing incident, I requested mediation at Misplaced Pages:Mediation_Cabal/Cases/2010-02-04/Passport, with no response. I have reported Ozguroot's canvassing at Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Ozguroot_canvassing_again, again with no response. I am utterly disheartened by the community apathy, it seems our dislike for the "dramafest at ANI" has become a disdain for dispute resolution of any kind, an apathy for processes of justice. To make sure the weeks' worth of discussion at Talk:Passport aren't undermined by an egomaniacal nationalist, a sockpuppet, and their canvassed hordes, and in light of the utter apathy I have received from the community, I am notifying all editors who expressed support for the proposal. I am aware of the tenuous ledge on which I am pirouetting, but in the absence of better advice (as sought at ANI), I am sure you will agree it is only fair to attempt to balance the canvassed users who expressed a negative viewpoint. Not to be melodramatic, but to quote Edmund Burke: "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing". —what a crazy random happenstance 14:15, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
