i don't know if it is because of you asking or not but it was taken care of while i was sleeping thanks anyway i could have pulled it off but i needed the ability to perform a history merge cheers the rid protection looks like your entire userspace is currently protected userpage indef archives for days and talk for some other time period i don't recall somebody's been a little too persistent let me know if this causes any problems thank you just wanted to say thank you for the help you provided with the revert war going on at the battle of al qaim more sockpuppets are appearing on this article i've reverted and blocked a few but i think it bears close watching cat rfu contrary review i have posted an weak opposition to a block you issued on explained chez you yandman i defer to your higher powers i am confident that you are properly identifying ip vandalism with admin powers that i am unaware of his unblock request and his user talk page would not have lead me to the conclusion you made but i have no problem with your decision nice higher powers i like that seriously you were quite right to question my actions we are a collaborative project after all yandman i see that you found the report on wp ani the solicitation of warned blocked users to use their ips to revert my edits is almost amusing if it weren't disruptive to others however i'm certainly not going to let a troll group of trolls keep me from contributing to the encyclopedic content of wikipedia nor deter me from reverting vandalism and blocking vandals just a bump in the road thanks for your diligence and for answering tonythetiger that info was helpful and i won't make the effort to add this group of edits to a checkuser request personally i think a community ban is in order for the solicitation of others to vandalize why did you delete the playradioplay page i didn't even make that it's a blatant copyright violation taken from the webpage of a non notable band look at the deletion log yandman the hybrid hi could i ask a favor of you i'm thinking about applying for admin sometime in late march and i would appreciate some advice from someone who is already an admin could you flip through my contributions and tell me what i need to improve on i would really appreciate it the rid of course yandman thanks yandman the rid wild carrot shop ok you
