Hey Husond!
Hey long time no see, I was going to ask you a favor, the following article Steve Stivers is going to get a lot of vandalism now that he won the primary and is an official candidate for congress, I was going to see if it is possible to have it semi protected for the next 6 months until election day, if you cant do it thats cool, i just thought it might be a good idea to ask.--Joebengo (talk) 00:08, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
Could you check on this article? Recent edits by Kalt wie Stahl[1] are rather POV backed by a non-English, unpublished website. Thanks. --Kansas Bear (talk) 17:05, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
Hey!
Nice to see you back. You probably still recognize me (from my old RfA); I'm still active like I was. I just wanted to pop in here and say hello and welcome back! Have a good day/night/week. Schfifty3 03:53, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
Thanks
I appreciate the help. Also, thanks for pitching in at recent changes. We need all the help we can get. See ya 'round Tiderolls 14:52, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
IP block
You recently blocked User talk:174.91.217.32 for vandalism. I noticed this IP was specifically targeting User:Paul Erik. I'm suspecting sockpuppetry. Thoughts? --N419BH (talk) 00:51, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
- I have no idea; I do not have enough experience to make that call. I just find it extremely odd that a brand new IP is specifically targeting a 20,000+ contribution user by name. I've left a message at Paul Erik's talk page as he'll probably know more. Other than that I don't really know what to do. --N419BH (talk) 01:04, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
- The following is from Paul Erik's talk page. I'd say we can just drop it for now. --N419BH (talk) 01:17, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
- "Thanks for helping with the cleanup. It's an anon who is apparently mad at me for reverting his joke edits to the Joseph Cirincione article. I'm just ignoring for the time being. But he seems to be unaware that unregistered editing from an IP address is traceable; his address is in Montreal, using Bell Sympatico internet. Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 01:14, 10 May 2010 (UTC)"
- Okay, thanks for clarifying. I'll let you know if I have any further questions. Advice and input is always appreciated. --N419BH (talk) 01:55, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
Roachies
Huh, your hand is sort of famous there, thanks to all the roachies... --Illythr (talk) 16:38, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- You yourself - not yet. Your hand, however...
- A question that's been bugging me for awhile - how did you manage to keep them from falling off or crawling up your sleeve? --Illythr (talk) 22:42, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
- Ah, I've made the same mistake, apparently - anything as agile as the "regular" roachies would swiftly fall off on their own in order to be able to further pursue their eek-provoking activities... --Illythr (talk) 20:34, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
Ayako Shirasaki Article - Possible to translate into Portuguese?
Hi Husond, I'm looking for a translator from English to Portuguese. Are you into Jazz Piano and like to Help? Or maybe know someone else? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayako_Shirasaki Thank you! --JanMatthiesMM (talk) 22:47, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Bronx/The Bronx
Hello, you participated in a discussion last spring that resulted in renaming The Bronx as Bronx. There is now a proposal to open a new Request for Comments on restoring the original name. If you have comments about the timing of such a proposal, please make them soon at Talk:Bronx#Query: when do we consider this? because, unless a there's a consensus against such a Request for Comments, it will begin early this week. Thanks. —— Shakescene (talk) 21:47, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
Lisbon
You always decide to change without ending discussion? Discussion is still ongoing. Subtropical-man (talk) 11:45, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
- Didn't notice the topic on the talk page was finally engaged. Will join in. Húsönd 21:54, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
I've listed Portal:Portugal for Featured portal review as I don't think it meets current standards because it's not kept up to date - in fact, you said much the same in January 2007! If you can join in the discussion or help to improve the portal, that'd be fantastic. I've left a note at WP:Portugal but I don't know how active that is; if there are other people you think I should tell, please let me know. Regards, BencherliteTalk 17:32, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
invite to discuss Kosovo geographic names
I am working on a list of issue and a stragtegy for the names of places in kosovo , User_talk:Mdupont#Naming_and_status_of_Kosovo_pages I would like to invite you to take part and comment, have seen your activity of kosovo articles in the past. Thanks, mike James Michael DuPont (talk) 12:01, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Husond, I posted recently to the BLP noticeboard with a problem about a BLP that relies on Portuguese sources, and Slp1 suggested I contact you. It's Antonio Petrus Kalil, an article about a Brazilian operator of an illegal lottery. I noticed it after a couple of requests for protection at RfPP. Someone apparently from Kalil's family is objecting to the content.
There were some very serious allegations in the article -- the worst have been removed, but we're still having difficulty making sure (a) that the article doesn't go beyond the sources, and (b) that the sources are high quality. If you have any time to look that would be very helpful. There's a section on talk that starts at Talk:Antonio_Petrus_Kalil#BLP_concern, though it's quite long to read. There's a suggestion that we go back to a stub at Talk:Antonio_Petrus_Kalil#Suggestion, and a list of the sources the article currently uses at Talk:Antonio_Petrus_Kalil#Current sources.
It would be helpful to have an uninvolved Portuguese speaker overseeing what's going on, even if it's just to comment occasionally. But don't worry if you're too busy to take a look. I'll completely understand, so feel free to ignore the request. Cheers, SlimVirgin talk|contribs 22:06, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion for improvement of your "has been here" layout
Instead of using pictures of parentheses, I recommend that you do the following HTML solution.
Since the parentheses are rendered as HTML, you will have the correct background color. Bender2k14 (talk) 15:17, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Portuguese translation
Hello. I was on Wikipedia:Translators available and notice that you were on the list for Portuguese to English translators and wondered if you could translate John VI of Portugal and/or Amélie of Leuchtenberg?

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.
