To be honest, I'm not quite convinced. All six countries that make up the Greater Antilles already have their own stub types, and all but one of them (the Caymans) already have separate geo-stubs, too. The way things are working at the moment with the Stub-sorting, it's likely that just about every country will have its own separate stub type soon, even if the templates feed back into a larger category for now (for example Haiti-geo-stub still feeds into the Caribbean geography stubs category). So I'm not sure that splitting the antilles into greater and lesser would really be that useful. Grutness...wha? 23:30, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Slgrandson! Thank you for supporting me in my message if you need any assistance. :)

Thanks for the welcome. :)

I have discovered that a user calling himself Wacki has been posting links to his own website called logical science (dot) com. I note this is a clear violation of Wikipedia guidelines and have therefore removed the links and told Wacki on his talk page why they have been removed. There is clear proof that Wacki is the owner of this website in his Blogger profile. Just thought I would give the heads-up to what is going on in case he attempts to repost the links and an edit war ensues. Thanks --TheCenturion 18:31, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

How do you get the edit counter on your page to work? I get to the tool and it says to save and then bypass my cache. Unfortuanetly, I have no idea what that means. Can you tell me a simple step-by-step way to do it? Am I supposed to copy and paste the text somewhere and go from there or do something else. Please message me when ever you have the time. Thanks.

Hey Dylan, thanks a lot for supporting me in my recent RfA. It succeeded, and I am very grateful to all of you. If you ever need help with anything, please don't hesitate to ask. Also, feel free point out any mistakes I make! Thanks again, —Khoikhoi 04:17, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Hey Slgrandson,

I just wanted to thank you for your support in my recent request for adminship, which passed unanimously with a final tally of 38/0/0. I appreciate your trust, and will do my best to uphold it. Don't hesitate to let me know if you ever need anything. — TKD::Talk 05:50, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 15:44, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Had a watch on the move page, noticed your entry. Not only did SlipKnotMask do the move, he immediately edited the redirect page with nonsense text so the move could not be undone. Seems like straightforward vandalism. You may want to put a vandalism notice on his talk page per

Thank you for participating in my recent RfA. Unfortunately consensus was not reached, and the nomination was not successful. However, I appreciate that you took the time to comment, and I did pay close attention to your thoughts, as I find it a valuable thing to understand how I am perceived by others in the Wikipedia community. Though the RfA was unsuccessful, I intend to continue contributing in a positive manner to Wikipedia, and if there is anything that I can do in the future to help further address your concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. --Elonka 09:54, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

... TangoTango has kindly written up a script that once a week lists all of the new members to Esperanza. The list can be found at User:Tangotango/New members of Esperanza; it is updated once a week, and will show all of the new members since the last update. If you're not sure if everyone who joined the past week has been welcomed, that is a great place to check! I hope that helps you in your welcome, and thank you for making a point to greet new Esperanzians! -- Natalya 18:41, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Please, why did you put the Universo HQ to be deleted? I was not finished when you did it. It's the best site to talk about brazilian comic books and has also a english version. Please, give one more look at the link and remove it or discuss with me. It's very unfair at this way....I'm here to be a wiki too...

I saw that you had posted your page in the Intervention page that Brainyshane640 was attacking you. I looked at the comments you made on his talk page, and I'd have to say that it doesn't look good the way you had made that threat. How can I accept you as an administrator in the future if you're going to up to people and make comments like that? I only speak out of concern here. :: Colin Keigher 18:44, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for the constructive criticism in your neutral vote on my RfA, which passed with a final tally of (56/0/2). Be assured, I will take your concerns into consideration. I know I have much reading to do before I'll feel comfortable enough to use some of the more powerful admin tools, so I'll get right to it. Again, thanks; └  talk  ┐ 13:45, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

November Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Admin Coaching (needs coaches!) Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach . Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins. What's New? The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one! A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts. Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.

The last AC meeting (full log) The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived. There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive ! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia. The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested! In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias. A discussion of Esperanza's role in Wikipedia is being held, with all thoughts of all Esperanzians wanted! Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello. Signed... FireFox, The Halo, Shreshth91 and HighwayCello 20:33, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

Thank you for your support!

Se la face ay pale, la cause est... 23:42, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

If I'm a bit pale in the face now, it's because of the amazing support during my recent request for adminship and because of all those new shiny buttons. And if in the future my use of them should not always be perfect please don't hesitate to shout at me any time, sunset, noon or sunrise.

Re: Grosvenor Grammar School

Posting on my page and all that about me vandalising is fine, but I have to inform you that I was away at the time and persons unknown within my household (*Sigh*) ie: my brither, logged in under my user and changed things on our school info page. This has happened before. I apologise and it will not happen again.

Thanks for your diligence warning users for speedy delete articles, but I'm the one that put the db-copyvio on that page. I removed the warning from my talk page. ju66l3r 22:27, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi Slgrandson, and thanks very much for your support during my recent RfA, which succeeded with a final tally of 64/0/0. I am grateful for the overwhelming support I received from the community, and hope I will continue to earn your trust as I expand my participation on Wikipedia. It goes without saying that if you ever need anything and I can help, please let me know. Wait, I guess it does go with saying. ; ) --cholmes75 (chit chat) 22:10, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your support!

A week ago I nominated myself, hoping to be able to help Wikipedia as an administrator as much as a WikiGnome. I am very glad many others shared my thoughts, including you. Thank you for your trust! Be sure I will use these tools to protect and prevent and not to harass or punish. Should you feel I am overreacting, pat me so that I can correct myself. Thanks again, and if you have doubts about my small script, just tell me. ReyBrujo 23:47, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

My RfA

Oh, the humanity! I had my doubts about a second RfA, but even I couldn't have predicted the way it caught fire and inexorably drifted to the ground in flames, causing quite a stir on its way down. Still, it was encouraging to see the level of support and confidence. Thank you for yours, and I hope I'll have earned your full support by the next time around.
