Well, I don't know. Moss hasn't done to well lately and he's in legal trouble; brady's in cast. But weather won't be a factor cuz it's in arizona. I won't be able to watch it (cuz I don't have a tv); but I will be folowing it on msn sports. But anywho, I think it'll be a close game, but I think the giants 'll win. But my opinion might be a little biased considering I live near New York. RC-0722communicator/kills20:17, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
GlassCobra/Archive 10, Thank you for your support in my RFA which passed 43/0/1. I would like to especially thank Bibliomaniac15 for being my nominator and admin coach. I would also like to thank Rudget for being my co-nominator. I'm sure that I can live up to the community's expectations as an administrator, and not totally mess everything up. Thanks again for your support! Malinaccier (talk)17:08, 26 January 2008 (UTC) P.S. You know I'm going to have to steal your userpage layout because of that comment! =D
Hey GlassCobra, I just wanted to stop by and say thank you for your support in my recent RFA. I look forward to making the Wiki a little better, and hope I can live up to the community's support. Thanks again, and feel free to come ask if you ever need anything! Gonzo fan2007talk ♦ contribs18:23, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
GlassCobra/Archive 10, thank you for showing your support in my RFA which passed with 38 support, 0 oppose, and 0 neutral! I also want to give special thanks to my Admin Coach and nominator, Useight for all of his help and support. I promise that I'll give my best effort as an admin, and I hope that your confidence in me proves to be justified. If I can ever be of any help, please let me know. In the mean time, I have some cleaning to do.
I see you blocked him, based on his username. Looking at his contributions, I am almost positive this is a sockpuppet of the user ClayMort, who caused a lot of trouble last summer. One thing I have seen from his suspected sockpuppets is a fascination with a user called Jungwirthwillkillallrocks. At one point, this user and ClayMort were claiming they live on the same street. I suspect that he and ClayMort are one and the same. 65.29.162.39 left a message on my talkpage, and signed it ClayMort. This IP has caused a lot of vandalism in the past. I would like to launch a sockpuppetry investigation, but don't know how to go about it. Can you help? -- Elaichtalk03:50, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
I'll take your advice. I've got him this time, though. Going back through the history of certain pages, I've found evidence that links the IP, ClayMort, Jungwirthwillkillallrocks, and CripsRUs as the same person. There are others, too. Jungwirthwillkillallrocks even posted a rant about me on his talk page (he thinks he got rid of that, but it's always there in history) over something I said to ClayMort months earlier. I'll contact the admin you mentioned. Thanks. -- Elaichtalk04:55, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Dude I just told eliach that jungwirthwillkillallrocks is my friend. Thats why I always write about him. For ClayMort, I have no clue who that is. But I can tell you that Rhode Island Hero is also me. The reason I created the Rhode Island Hero page is because when I went to my grandparent's house, I couldnt get into my old acount so I created a new one.Crips r us (talk) 20:36, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
RE:Your Rfa
I have withdrawn, it really is a good idea for administrators to have at least three months of experience, thanks. My Rfa should be archived, or not? Cheers. Earthbendingmaster21:57, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
I am not one for sending round pretty pictures, but after my recent RfA, which passed 68/1/7, I am now relaxed and this is to thank you for your comments, which I will take on board. I look forward to wielding the mop with alacrity. Or two lacrities. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 21:42, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Ultraexactzz is now an Administrator
My RfA
was successful, and closed with 44 Supports, 6 Opposes, and 1 Neutral. For your support, you have my thanks - I fully intend to live up to the lofty yet not-a-big-deal responsibility you have granted me. For those who opposed my candidacy, I value your input and advice, and hope that I may prove worthy of your trust. Special thanks to both Rudget and bibliomaniac15 for their expert coaching and guidance. I look forward to serving the project, my fellow editors, the pursuit of higher knowledge, et cetera, et cetera. Again, you have my thanks. UltraExactZZClaims~ Evidence01:15, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
'bout the project
Yes, sadly nobody's really doing anything. If you want to, you could add it to the novels project, and we can hope for some more attention from other editors. =(. Malinaccier (talk)01:20, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
RfA thanks from Happy-melon
I haven't really seen you around for a while, but I just wanted to say thanks for your support for my RfA, which closed (74/2/0) this morning. Your comment and support was very much appreciated. Happy‑melon09:43, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

ElisaEXPLOSiONtalktome.

it wont even link, n idk whats wrong.
GAH. see? sinebot hates me. but i cant fix it. look at the HTML for my sig and see if u can see any unclosed tags, cuz i sure as heck cant. ElisaEXPLOSiONtalktome.
Thank you so much. You responded to this incident quickly. I didn't know about it until 8 hours later. Once I found about about this attack, I immediately left a message to the user who reverted the attack and then went to the Administrators' Noticebord for a blocking. Footballfan190 (talk) 06:27, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
Thank you very much, GlassCobra, for your support in my RfA which I really appreciate. It closed at 83/0/0. I was surprised by the unanimity and will do my best to live up to the new role. All the best, --ROGER DAVIEStalk16:49, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
The patio at the Partal Palace in the Alhambra, Andalucia.
A couple questions
since I can't reach you on MSN atm and I had better ask you before I forget.
When wikifying an article, is there a standard as to which words should be wikified? I know you should wikify words that are relevant to the article to "build the web," but how many times should the word be wikified? Should every appearance of the word be wikified? Only the first time it occurs in the article? Only the first time in a section?
Regarding infoboxes - How do you know which types of infoboxes exist? For instance, say article x is missing an infobox. How do we know which infobox it needs, from the ones that exist, and where can we find that infobox template?
Also, thanks for Bathrobe Cabal invitation :p When was the Admin requirement removed?
My page on Oisin Cumann Luthchleas Gael Manchester was deleted today because it contained information that was possibly copyrighted. This is not the case. The website that was cited (www.oisinclg.com) belongs to me and is public domain. Like many Gaelic Football clubs we wish to promote our club with a presence in as many different media as possible. We are a non-profit organisation and a registered charity.
I'm back from a wikibreak and must make exactly the same comment (need to find camera, application in process)... thanks for reminding me, though. Accounting4Taste:talk00:13, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
Another question
from your ever-present adoptee. Regarding the removal of warnings from talk pages - when someone removes a warning from their talk page, is that considered vandalism? At what point does it become acknowledgment of the warning?
Hey GC! Word up? I think I've got a bit of coding in my Test site history that I can drop in to make it a scrollable section; if that's not satisfactory, we can re-arrange the page. What do you think? Cheers! Dfrg_msc08:50, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
Please re-examine draft text. I should imagine that the NPO's prominence will be sufficient for it to continue as a stub. --Ooperhoofd (talk) 18:09, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
You got a problem -- seek help elsewhere. Don't revert this without an explanation which makes sense to me. YOu have to make sense to me -- not to yourself alone. --Ooperhoofd (talk) 19:05, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
Please Help GlassCobra
It is my own web site that I contributed true information.
(Stated deleted as 'copyright infringment').
It is not for my own self as I am sometimes inundated with information through emails and calls
about what information I have on the following people, especially those thousands of owners of William C. Gilpin
animal prints:
William C. Gilpin
Rita Hayworth
Julia Phillips
And, the bio I enclosed from my web site www.pauldwillner.com is all the information I have on these famous people I have worked
with in the past.
Thanks for the invitation, I will think about it and I have to make sure to take such a picture when I decide to join. AmandaT/C23:24, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
By the way, can you have a look at my talk page, I don't think it archives the way it should do it, does it? Thanks, AmandaT/C23:40, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
Top Secret Bathrobe Cabal
Okay, I'm now the proud possessor of a digital photograph of myself with requisite bathrobe and thumb in the proper places. What comes next? I note that the Bathrobe Cabal page is locked and -- as you have probably already figured out -- I'm highly literate and technologically challenged. Any guidance pitched at the level of a bright six-year-old would be entirely appropriate. <grin> Accounting4Taste:talk03:32, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
Nope, I don't know a thing about it. I haven't looked at the page since I botched the attempt to relist the AfD. It looks like AfD isn't even mentioned on the talk page (actually there is no talk page atm). Hope this helps. Xymmax (talk) 13:54, 7 February 2008 (UTC) The following is a copy of the text you left on my talk page.

Hey, wanted to check up with you about Jack Deth; it looks like it's been un-redirected since the AfD. Do you happen to know anything about this? GlassCobra 04:23, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
BRC
I assure you that this is neither a smoking jacket nor a wizard robe, but a bona fide bathrobe.
Can you revert Jack Deth back to the way it used to be? I haven't had time to watch every film in the series, so naturally it was an incomplete article. But you shouldn't keep editing stuff, because that'll just piss people off and make em' leave the site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 45g (talk • contribs) 03:35, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

LSE IDEAS
Hi, GlassCobra. I don't agree that the LSE IDEAS article that you deleted is blatant advertising -- it is a factual article about an academic institution.
Oawoaw (talk) 21:31, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
In reply to the note you left on my page - no. The person who deleted the page needs to restore it. I do not have the image - I deleted it from my system knowing it was on Wikipedia. When I get a reply from the copyright holder I'll post it to the image page. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sa cooke (talk • contribs) 07:25, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
