| Hello! I'm unfamiliar with your opinion of me beyond your recent disagreement with some comments that I made at ], but I'm hoping that you can be of assistance. Per Hammersoft's wishes, I have no intention of continuing to post there. I am, however, very disappointed in my failure to amicably resolve the dispute. I'm also uncomfortable with the last few edits (in which my repeated attempts to honor his requests and sincere expression of disappointment and optimism for productive teamwork in the future led to me being reverted as a vandal). As you appear to be on good terms with Hammersoft, I’d sincerely appreciate any efforts on your part to aid us in mending this rift. The easiest thing would be to simply move on, but I don't want to leave things like this. No matter how strongly Hammersoft and I disagree with one another, I realize that we're here for the same reason (to build an encyclopedia), as I'm certain that you are as well. It's through mutual respect and co-operation (not anger and resentment) that we work toward this goal. Thanks in advance for any help that you're able to provide. —] 22:26, 4 April 2008 (UTC) | |||

| :The confrontation you had with Hammersoft is not unusual. Forgive me for being blunt, but it's simply a case of two very stubborn people coming into conflict, and then being unable to resolve it due to sheer stubbornness. He says that you mistreated Ryan and caused him to leave. You admit that what you said probably had something to do with Ryan leaving, but refuse to admit that you mistreated him, and thus won't apologize. Listen, I've been the same way sometimes. I hate when someone insists I apologize for something when I don't feel that I did anything wrong. | |||

| :You must understand that whether you did something wrong or not is immaterial to this conflict. He's not going to bury the proverbial hatchet until you apologize. You don't want to. He isn't interested in continuing the discourse if you don't want to. | |||

| :My advice to you would be to leave Ryan a message stating that you did not intend to insult him in any way or to hurt his feelings, and that your comments were meant in good faith.

I tend to rotate my suggestions and what to emphasize there is no single path to RfA, and well I hit you twice without rereading my comments. Also, it seems like April will be a slim month for RfAs, with rather high standards being applied. When Keeper76 and I went up, we went up when RfAs seemed to have slightly lowered standards.

| Dear ] ] and ], I would like to express my sorrow for all the trouble I've caused you. Please understand that I have learned from my mistakes. I did not intentionally ] Misplaced Pages. I really really want to be a Misplaced Pages administrator, and please answer this question, what are the ] of a ] user becoming a Misplaced Pages administrator. Well I don't really know what the odds are, but I doubt they are high. I am forced to give you this apology not in my ], because somebody protected my talk page so people can't contact me, and so I can't say I'm sorry. One of these days I will become a Misplaced Pages administrator and help people with their problems. I will also stop vandalism, I will be able to convince the vandals that are good and don't know that they are vandalising Misplaced Pages that what they are doing is wrong (I can get throught to these people, because I used to be one of them). I can get through to them, that way no one has to go through what I've been through ever again. I will also make very important edits about very important topics. Some of these topics include ], the ], ], ], ], ], ], and others. Everyone, the only way we can fight ] is if we all join together, remember there are more of us than there are of them, don't forget that 95% of Misplaced Pages's admins are actually good, I hate to say it but............] could have originally been a good admin, he just likes banning people a lot. I will also pass ] against what Daniel Case did to me and so many others like me. I will also fix the blocking system, I will make it so people aren't automatically blocked, they will recieve a ] in which they are ]. I will also remove the ] ] and so every article gets a fair trial before it is automatically deleted for no reason by a ]. I will also improve Misplaced Pages by making it more reliable, together we can make it so ] and ] allow Misplaced Pages as a source. I can not bring about this change alone, we must stand together, this is the ] ]/]/], not just the admins, everyone has a say in the ]. But before I can do all these great things, I have to be ], like I said before, ], some of you may say "Well if he/she is blocked, I don't think they can be that good of an admin, since they can't edit". But people, I'm not a bad person, I am here for you. I care about YOU! We need to think before we edit WIKIPEDIA! WE MUST STAND UNITED! OR VANDALS WILL DESTROY ALL OF WHICH WE FOUGHT SO HARD TO BUILD! Please people, take my hand, we shall make Misplaced Pages whole again. I will never again vandalize Misplaced Pages, the times in the past that I did, I am deeply sorry, but I can't change what I did, we have to live with it, we have to move on. Just think to yourself, what would ] do? Would Jesus ] me for making a mistake, or would he forgive me and give me a ] or ]? Do you know that pretty much every single day, for the past 2 years, I have apologized to Daniel Case and the other admins, for what I have done. And all they do is block the ] and ] at me. Please, look into your ], I am deeply sorry. Please forgive me, I am not a ], I am not an IP address, I am not a ], I am not a ], I am not a ], I am not a Wikipedian at all, and neither are you, we are ], and its about time we get treated like we are. Did you know, that Daniel Case, hates me so much, that he wanted to ban all ] people whoi use Misplaced Pages. He also wanted to ban a company. If you don't believe me, read the ] ] led by Daniel Case about banning me. He talks about how much fun it would be to ban all ] ] people. He thinks I use Level 3, which I don't, but he wanted to ban everyone for using the same type of Internet as me. He banned a company from Misplaced Pages, he banned ] website and all of there games's websites just for fun. He also banned all ] users and urls, just because I use InvisionFree ] and he hates forums now. He banned all ] forums and users as well, because InvisionFree's company, ] also made ZetaBoards.

Precious
"...a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma... "
Thank you for quality articles about personalities such as Sid Luckman and Félix Houphouët-Boigny, for work for project Living people when it was active, for quoting "...a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma... ", for support and the perfect solution, - enigmaticmaman, repeating from 10 years ago: you are an awesome Wikipedian!
You are recipient no. 2240 of Precious, a prize of QAI! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:36, 2 July 2019 (UTC)

- Thanks, Gerda. I imagine I'm one of the few 2009 recipients still here. Enigma 15:40, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
- Well, not so few, - I joined 2009, DYK? I normally look up if someone found precious 10 years ago (mostly by Rlevse) is still active and deserves a refreshed award. For you, it was the opposite: I noticed you on Floq's page, and thought "precious!", but then saw your entry and waited a bit ;) - Nice to meet you! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:45, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
- We'll wait for your return. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:47, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
I'm sad to see you leave Misplaced Pages
I hope that your retirement isn't permanent, and that you decide to return to Misplaced Pages (whenever that may be). I'll miss you a lot, and I hope to hear from you in the future someday when you make your return. Should I never hear from you again, please know that I wish you well and I wish you a life of happiness and well-being. It was a pleasure to know you and work with you here, and I am sad to see you go...... ~Oshwah~ 17:34, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
- I am not happy. Things are getting worse and worse on Misplaced Pages. Enigma 20:32, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
- Just to add my sadness about your retirement...and my thanks for your input at RFPP. Take care. Lectonar (talk) 10:12, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:CloudBuy

Your input
I have an RfC going on at Talk:Gwar#RfC_about_GwarBar_vs_GWARbar regarding using all caps in an article and would appreciate the input of some long-standing Misplaced Pages editors who may be familiar with the policy, or at least be able to interpret the existing policy with some clarity.

Pranav Pandya
This title is salted. Can you unprotect to allow promotion of draft into mainspace? Draft:Pranav Pandya (Gujarati poet) is a different topic. It is well cited. I have checked for notability. It should be moved to Pranav Pandya. I was asked for help on my talkpage. Regards,-Nizil (talk) 14:32, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
- Enigmaman is inactive. Hey Eddie891 Can you help with this ? --Gazal world (talk) 15:19, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
- Nizil Shah, I have un-salted so the draft can be mainspaced as it's clearly not an A7 candidate. The new article may of course still be tagged if it is not notable, I have not closely reviewed the case. Thanks for the ping, Gaza world. Cheers, Eddie891 Work 15:45, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
- I do not know anything about this. I SALTed the title some years ago after it had been deleted multiple times by various admins. Enigma 16:43, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Burton (name), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Michael Burton. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Element Fresh
Hi! I see you are the closer for Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Element Fresh. I found an article from The Beijinger that it had developed a partnership with a tennis player named Li Na and now it's gone bankrupt. Would it help if I checked for some Chinese sources about the bankruptcy? If I can find enough I could start a DRV. WhisperToMe (talk) 01:24, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- I started User:WhisperToMe/Element Fresh as a draft. If you're interested, please feel free to give feedback. Thank you WhisperToMe (talk) 23:26, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
