Hogmanay greeting

[edit]
Thank you very much for working with me in 2010 to make the encyclopedia a better place. Regardless of any disagreements we may have had, I want to wish you all the very best for 2011. I look forward to working with you, and I hope for health and happiness to you and your family in the year to come. I therefore send you this glass of the cratur, so you can celebrate, whether it is Hogmanay or New Year's Day where you are. Warmest regards, --John (talk) 04:58, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

Recent unblock request

[edit]

No, i did not mean to replace your unblock review with my own, nor did I actually realise that I had done so. My browser presents a somewhat confused picture of this editor's page. Perhaps it's me. Certainly I had no intention of changing, or interfering with, your edits. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 23:03, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

[edit]

This user is still requesting unblock. I prefer not to refuse twice; would you care to take it? --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 22:17, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Meh. It's in the unblock queue, because he left an open block above his 'on hold' one. I'm happy to let a third person tell him 'no.' Although I'll admit that my first impulse was to remove the open one and leave the 'on hold' one in place, just to see how long it takes him to read and understand my message about what the 'hold' message is for. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:20, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
I don't think he reads messages. He just announced (I reverted it) that he had unblocked himself! --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 22:33, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Unblock of User:Fafhrdrn1154

[edit]

I have just unblocked a user you blocked, see User talk:Fafhrdrn1154. I usually don't unblock without first consulting the blocking admin, but on this occasion I thought it was fairly clearly a misunderstanding, so I did. However, it seems a matter of courtesy to at least inform you post facto. Please harangue me mercilessly if you think I was wrong. JamesBWatson (talk) 21:26, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Yes, no problem. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 00:40, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Lawline again

[edit]

Hi FQ. I just blocked SnoopyPA (talk · contribs) as a fairly obvious sock of Lawline. Same MO: straight to Hot Lap Dance Club where it proceeded to shave off a bit more of that already drastically reduced article. There are also a couple of other "tells" which I'm sure you'll notice. This account was actually created a couple of hours before the previous sock, FreedomFighter77 (talk · contribs), so I'll request a CheckUser to ferret out sleepers. Favonian (talk) 10:58, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Although I know he has no idea what its significance is, the fact that, in lifting my userboxes for his talk page, he tried to use the User:Jeffpw userbox really pisses me off. Also, thank you for your alertness. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 11:30, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
Then again, because of lifting my userboxes, he also now claims to speak Esperanto. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 11:32, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
You should really call him out on that one. I had my user page copied wholesale by an Australian F1 fanatic, which prompted an American editor (who had once been an exchange student in Denmark) to ask this question of him. Surprisingly, the guy never answered. Favonian (talk) 11:41, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 11:43, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Wrestling101 does have a point, though

[edit]

The other guy is an IP skipper. Maybe a shortish SP? HalfShadow 21:05, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

I agree; semiprotection is a good idea. Wrestling101 should have asked for it instead of edit-warring... -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:29, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
Actually, I made a rangeblock as soon as the IP evaded and it seems to have held so far. Not that there's anything wrong with belt and braces, but I don't think the semi is really necessary. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:46, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
