Edit summaries
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.
The edit summary field looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Misplaced Pages account, you can give yourself a reminder by setting Preferences → Editing → 
Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary), and then click the "Save" button.
Thanks!

Vandal reverting
Nice work :-). I assume you've seen Misplaced Pages:RC patrol? Dan100 (Talk) 19:06, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
Very impressive keeping such a fast eye on Dubya; looks like it's going to be a long evening.... :( —akghetto 08:17, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
- A very long night....looks like I'm gonna be up for a while.. - Nick125 08:18, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
Exceptional newcomer
Nick, I saw your reversion of vandalism at Mansa Musa, and I was terrifically impressed to see that you're already tracking down the vandals on what is apparently your first day here. Your efforts are greatly appreciated! I'll look forward to seeing more from you, --Dvyost 19:20, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
- Revised this to take your busy day into account. Don't hesitate to move it to your user page, by the way. Again, fine work! --Dvyost 07:35, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
Venture brother message
You Deleted one of my entries for the venture brothers, but it wasn't vandalism, In the venture brothers christmas special both Quizboy and one of the venture children both accuse him of being a closet homosexual. Why didn't you at least ask me before you did that. It just kinda insults me I guess
Ok..
If you feel that edit to that page was not correct, I do apologize for the error.
Um ...
In following up to your reversion to the New York Islanders site, did you actually take the trouble to trace that external link? I just did so -- it's a slow morning -- and it seems to be an outstanding website, full of comprehensive information and commentary. The draft recaps alone are enough for serious hockey researchers. Rather than focusing on sheer reversion counts, perhaps it would serve Misplaced Pages better for you to ensure that what you're labelling as vandalism actually is vandalism first.

- I'm trying, ok? I'm trying to help out, thats all. I'm just getting used to figuring out whats vandalism, and whats not. I will try to be more careful though. Thanks for the heads up - nick125 (damnit, i still need to login on this box)
He-Man
Ah, I see you've discovered He-Man. Thanks for helping out! Since you're new around here, you might be interested in this page:
It lists a bunch of canned messages for vandals, among other things. The one I use most often is probably Test. Melchoir 08:19, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

- Yeah, I see you've already been using some of the test templates. Well, carry on... Melchoir 08:23, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
