Re:Moth stubs

*slaps self with trout* All of the ones in the Lycaenidae family, it seems?   22:30, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

OK, thanks for giving me a heads up about that. I'll go back sometime in the next couple of days (whenever I have some free time to get it done) and fix all of those.   03:10, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

If you're able to tweak the text while you're changing the stub types, that would be great. I can still go back and change them all, but yes, that would be easier.   01:08, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Ah, OK. Since it looks like your bot has updated the stubs by now, thanks a lot. I really do appreciate it, as it seems like my time I can spend on here is decreasing by the day.   23:10, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Re: Redirect wiggling

I have an excuse :)

I'm working with a slightly glitchy copy of Safari - I can't type anything into the menu bar vwithout it crashiong, so i have to swing from article to article via blue-links, like Tarzan going from vine to vine. If I wanted to make a redirect the normal way, I'd have to open up my sandbox, make a redlink to the desired redirect, preview, click on the redlink, then make the redirect from there. "Redirect wiggling" is quicker :) Grutness... 04:50, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Vandalism

I'm trying to improve this article by adding tags, because the article's sources are non neutral and some of them not verifiable. There is also a discussion going on in the talk page. However, the discussion is still open and some users are reverting my changes, without waiting for it to be over. One of them is also accusing me of vandalism for nationality/racism reasons, which is completely untrue.--EmpD++ (talk) 16:16, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Some edits from the above editor's previous account (is he trying to evade a ban?):

• [1]
• [2]
• [3]
• [4]
• [5]
• [6]
• going so far as to remove pictures of Greek vases from random articles

Maybe that's not the editor's previous account? I don't understand why are you confusing me with that user. I have nothing to do with him, and with his vandalism.--EmpD++ (talk) 17:25, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

My 2p

I would like to modestly call attention to an essay I just wrote called "The nature of stub sorters." I am inviting a select few to peruse it at leisure and offer comments or changes if desired. I don't know what purpose it will serve, although I may cite it on occasions when we moppers are more than usually misunderstood. Thank you for reading. Her Pegship 21:04, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
