Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! Breat work on creating Bonnot gang! --mav

Great job on Janissary! Hephaestos 22:06 Jan 27, 2003 (UTC)

...and also on Special Boat Service, which is a great improvement on the article that was there before. --rbrwr

  Just the facts, I'm afraid. Although my grammar does not seem perfect Skysmith

BTW, do you realize you just deleted the dozen-odd English Civil War entries I added to List of battles 1401-1800 little over an hour ago? Check the diffs and scroll down to see what got evaporated. I'll fix - usually the save mechanism detects conflicts and warns you, did you get that when you saved? Stan Shebs 18:59 Feb 12, 2003 (UTC)

  Sorry about that Skysmith 19:30 Feb 12, 2003 (UTC)

Thanks for doing most of the fixing! There were a couple bits missing still, I just re-added those, so all better now. Stan Shebs 21:56 Feb 12, 2003 (UTC)

Have you noticed the article TulipOmania? A little merging is needed one way or the other ²¹²

So it appears. And someone has already done that - Skysmith 19:01 7 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Please see Talk:Hugo Bleicher. I hope you can help by providing references for the account of Frager's arrest. Thanks. Peter Manchester 14:16, 28 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Enjoyed seeing the appearance of the article about Maria Monk. Was meaning to get around to that one day. I added a couple paragraphs, mostly relating the tale told to Gothic novels. -- Smerdis of Tlön 17:57, 4 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Hello: two tips for you - check out Category:Transgender-related topics. Please also be careful with your pronouns - it isn't quite appropriate to use pronouns relating to birth gender in speaking about transgendered people (see Wikipedia:WikiProject Sexology and Sexuality/Terminology for more).

Cetshwayo

Cetshwayo You changed dashes - to question marks ? in this article ; or is it my fonts ? Wizzy 14:34, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing it. I followed up with Zulus categorisation. Wizzy 12:56, 23 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Karl Wilhelm Naundorff

Heya.. nice work on the Karl Wilhelm Naundorff article! I created that wee stub a while back when it was on a list of "articles in the French wikipedia that we don't have in English", and it was a pleasant surprise to see that someone had greatly expanded it! —Stormie 23:52, Jun 29, 2004 (UTC)

Re: NFC

Oh, no worries; that's happened to me before, too. If only a warning would pop up informing you that "an article under this title was deleted in the past five minutes; are you sure you want to create it again?".. but such would probably be a waste of developer time. Anyway, thanks for your effort in combing through the new arrivals. Those delete tags are very helpful to us janitor-types. Cheers, -- Hadal 10:27, 7 Jul 2004 (UTC)

1926 money scandal in Hungary and Alfred Windischgrätz

You committed a change to 1926 that mentions "Money forgery scandal in Hungary - Alfred Windischgratz arrested". The notable Alfred Windischgrätz died in 1862 so this can't have been the right person. I couldn't find anything on Google about this so I preemptively removed it. If you can corroborate this information, please make a page for either that different person, or for the event. --Joy [shallot] 01:33, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)
