Hello!
Cream (talk) has put a trout your back! The Trout promotes playfulness and hopefully this one has made your day worse. You have no choice but to spread it to other editors! Happy April Fools' Day!
Add this {{subst:AprilFoools}} to their talk page with a friendly fish. 14:06, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
Block evasion
A user you blocked for 3RR yesterday, 70.108.82.109, started editing from another IP, 70.108.103.64, before the block was up and is continuing their disruptive editing. I don't like to be a tattletale but sometimes you gotta. —Hello, Control 17:13, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

User:Birlinn unblock
Could you please be a little more careful? You just unblocked this person so that they could change their name to: the same name (a corporate one) that was blocked in the first place! --Orange Mike | Talk 15:42, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Hey, excrement eventuates. It turned out well, fortunately. Thanks for trying to help. --Orange Mike | Talk 16:49, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
WP:Lectures on the 6th
Kim is starting the lectures on April 6th around 15:00 UTC (although that is apparently open to discussion). Just a reminder... Xavexgoem (talk) 14:11, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

House Calls article finished
I finally have finished the House Calls article. It is detailed and is loaded down with verifiable references. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 20:45, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- It even has a nice shinny logo as well :) ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 20:46, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
What do you suggest we do to address User:Calton's tagging?
Calton continues, I randomly pulled user out of Calton's many spam warning contributions over the past day and got this one: User_talk:Billseidle - the user has never been blocked, let alone indef blocked. Should I start a separate WP:AN thread to address this issue? What are your recommendations? Calton never responded to your request for an explanation.--Doug. 23:12, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
- Have you ever left a note on his talk page, asking him why he does it? . . . (posted at User talk:Doug)
- Most certainly, you will recall this recent post by me at Misplaced Pages:AN#Talk_pages_for_indef_users (which we agreed was slightly off topic) :
- Well, no offense Calton, but I know you commonly tag userpages as spam and then add {{temporary userpage}} to their talk pages. Several admins have addressed this issue with you before, including me, but we apparently have a clear difference of opinion over the proper usage of {{temporary userpage}}. (See User_talk:Calton#Temporary_userpage.3F, User_talk:Calton#Template:temporary_userpage, User_talk:Calton#Tagging_user_pages_of_unblocked_users, User_talk:Calton#Template:temporary_userpage_2). If I notice these I review them. Some of these are in fact indef blocked and don't have an indef block tag, so the {{temporary userpage}} tag is valid. Others have never been blocked, let alone indef blocked. If you look at CAT:TEMP you'll probably find that many, if not most, usertalkpages are due to {{temporary userpage}} on the talk page - though I'm not saying they're all there due to Calton - I have no idea. Alternatively, will give a good starting place if you go through the ones tagged as spam in particular (Calton puts the template in the edit summary so this is pretty easy). --Doug. 23:25, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology
I see Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology was deleted, but I was more puzzled to find Hersfold (talk · contribs) removing all incoming links. Hersfold says that he was acting on your request. To be sure, there is little doubt that FASEB is notable, and I'm therefore not convinced that all the links need to be removed. Could you clarify the situation? JFW | T@lk 00:44, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
