Available, sort of, but I'm declaring bankruptcy regarding any email or previous talk page threads prior to today. If you'd like me to get involved again in something I was involved with previously, please (1) consider whether a lazy grump's participation would actually be a good idea, (b) let me know here, and (iii) note that I reserve the right to say "no thanks". --Floquenbeam (talk) 15:41, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
Notes
  • Normal humans: I'm not online as much as many other admins. You probably should bug another admin if you need something in a hurry.
  • Admins: I usually check in at least a few times a day, but if something is time sensitive, go ahead and undo or change any admin action I've taken without feeling like you have to talk to me first.

Vandalism in article

Good night. This user is repeatedly vandalizing this article adding false information and original research. Also, can you confirm if that user and this IP are related and, if possible, protect that article of new vandalism? Thank you.--Dantetheperuvian (talk) 23:39, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi Dan, I sort of remember being involved with this page a while ago, and I think I was helping you deal with a troublemaker then too, but can't recall the specifics. I have to admit I don't really know anything about the subject matter, and my memory is fuzzy enough that I don't want to just do what you're asking without it figuring out (which I don't think I'm going to have time for until next week). So it's probably better either (a) asking for help and/or more eyeballs at WT:FOOTBALL, or (b) ask another admin who has more time. Sorry about that; if it looks like it's unresolved next week, I'll take a look then. --Floquenbeam (talk) 19:29, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
@Dantetheperuvian: I've now taken a look at Intercontinental Cup (football), and I cannot understand what 95% of the edits are doing, nor keep track of all the IP editors. I simply can't tell what's right, what's wrong but just misguided, and what's vandalism. I think you're definitely going to have to ask for outside eyes at WT:FOOTY. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:03, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Request

I accidently forgot to sign in and edited on the page "Assyrians" can you please hide this or remove this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Penguins53 (talk • contribs) 15:25, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

I've revdel'd the IP address. In the future, this is best handled by email if you're trying to limit public linkage. Technically, I probably should have reverted it in order for you to make the edit with your username, but... meh. --Floquenbeam (talk) 16:07, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Thank you so much! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Penguins53 (talk • contribs) 16:18, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

You're welcome. --Floquenbeam (talk) 17:37, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Arbitrator's aid

Re: I may very well break down in tears in public, and that would be embarrassing. I highly recommend blaming "allergies."

Cause you just know it ain't going to get any better

Thanks, that will come in useful. They handed out a dozen of those to all new arbs, but I ran out the first week, and have been using my sleeve ever since. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:04, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Truly involved

Maybe a typo? :-) Fut.Perf. ☼ 15:38, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

How embarrassing. Fixed. Thanks, FP@S. --Floquenbeam (talk) 15:40, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Remember not, Lord, our offences

Remember not, Lord, our offences - Why am I not surprised? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:47, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Because you're observant enough to know what kind of person Scott is? --Floquenbeam (talk) 02:44, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
I wasn't. Didn't happen often that I wasn't, look for the asterisk in the third column (the others are my - rather harmless - counting mistakes), --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:25, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
ps: I looked myself again, and found eight where I missed. I was learning: 1 in 2014, all the others in 2012. Only one of them is not at least an admin (3), if not bureaucrat (1) or arb (3), what does it tell us? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:41, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
ps II: the one applied for being an admin, I didn't support because of the asterisk. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:49, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
