I saw an answer after this question "How Do I Become A Helper?" and felt that it was in a bit harsh language.
Sorry if I did something wrong.

I'm proud of my articles and they are very different from the other ones. I am not being mean but I don't appreciate you putting my articles up for deletion.

So what! The titles are close but the information is not! Just read my articles! They might be similar but I put my Own Twang on it! Why did I even ask you for help!

At 04:32, Dec 22, 2014

I can make another one that is different in many ways with a different title. What happens when I merge? Will my info go to another existing article?
At 04:36, Dec 22, 2014
Justin Mounts said:
I just think if I take the risk, my article may stay on WikiHow.

Sadly, they called off the search :( A week had already passed by the time they found his car, which is when they began the search. Our big group was the last big push. With below freezing temperatures, the likelihood of him still being alive was very, very small. But, in the bigger context, that's part of what that work will entail I guess. Searching but not always rescuing. And at least we made an epic effort!
For checkuser rights, I don't think we've given checkusers to a new account in a long while, since it's a touchy privacy issue too. Do you email [email protected] a lot? I think that's a good place to start. It's kind of like becoming an admin - an easy way to show you'd be good with the privilege is to constantly bug the people who have it to use theirs to show that you'd be a good judge :)

I reverted your removal of the deletion tag on the article about minstrel shows. The guideline appears to require a period of discussion before removing it. Since the comment I added is relevant and has a reference, it should also remain unless there is some discussion.

Hi again,
I'm actually Hailey Girges for now. Anyway, instead of reporting, I thought I'd just tell you about this. Buildabearpro123 told me she was going to quit wikiHow just a few minutes ago. She didn't. This makes be uncomfortable with the messages she sends to new users like this one: [1]. It wouldn't make sense because first the block template was added, then she removed it and put the welcome template.
Maybe ignoring what she says would help, but I thought I would just let you know.

Please send back to this account now. I was able to get back in.

I think there is one more sockpuppet: ChristmasTree45. She might be a sockpuppet because since Buildabearpro likes to post 'ghost' messages herself, this might be another sockpuppet: http://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=User_talk%3AKrystle&diff=16213667&oldid=16213658

Thank you for deleting the forums posts by Lillian Jones. I missed two:

Alabaster said:
Thank you, Matt,
There is one more that I could not send in the previous message. I got sidetracked sending this to Anna and responding to a message on her talk page.
Anyway, here is the other spammy link by User:Banderoll that I happened to see:
At 01:45, Dec 24, 2014
Alabaster said:
For me it was three external links that triggered that error and message. It used to be that the talk page message appeared to be sent, but was not and, also, there was no warning. I presumed that this was by design as a way to limit the spamming, but now I am thinking that maybe it was not. You might want to check about the specifics with Anna before publishing to the world how to circumvent that feature. Or are you talking about six internal links?
At 03:28, Dec 24, 2014
Alabaster said:
Yep. Right with you on that and I am glad you took the bull by the horns. I was on a less friendly system then and lost multiple carefully crafted coaching messages. To me, it was disheartening to try to recreate them. It was like the energy on that particular front had been drained.
At 03:38, Dec 24, 2014
Alabaster said:
Oh, I remember now what used to happen: I would click send and the system would go into sending limbo.—The talk page wouldn't "click over" to display the sent message, nor would it allow me to copy what was in limbo. I remember that I finally took to screen-shooting the wikicode and retyping the message. Yuck, what a mess and what a hassle. I would like to think that my belly-aching to Anna contributed a bit expediting the push of the fix/warning.

Adelaide said:
Hey Matt! I know, I'm mostly offline but had the time to pop back in for some last minute editing/boosting before the holidays start tomorrow -- you can expect I'll be missing in action after today. I'm keeping the contributions light while I'm addicted, though! #wikiwithdrawal
Thanks for sharing How to Post a Talk Page Message with Multiple Links on wikiHow with us. Any chance you have some screenshots to document the process? If so, then give us some :)
At 04:11, Dec 24, 2014
Adelaide said:
Great! Looking forward to seeing the screenshots. Merry Christmas! Do you guys do anything special to celebrate?
At 05:28, Dec 24, 2014
Adelaide said:
How cool, Matt! I've heard about Boxing Day, but didn't know that there were sales for that day...that's so interesting :)
I hope you enjoy the outings with your friends. Staying home and relaxing is always a good idea!
We plan to do a Chinese dinner for Christmas and ring in 2015 with cheery (cherry) juice, as well as watching the fireworks. That's about it for us...
So I guess I've made my last wikiHow contributions for 2014! I'm about to go completely offsite (hopefully?) 'til the 5th of January, as hard as it is being away from this awesome site (but good for me -- too much tech is never a good thing!). Happy Holidays to all! Have a wonderful time with your family and looking forward to recognizing more awesome work in 2015! :)

HumanBeing said:
Thanks for your edits on Masturbate if You're NB/Member of the Void. Ullo. Can I bother you 're. Multiple NFD options. Am I right in think an article can only be nfd-ed once for any reason? If this is the case, is it not better to NFD for one reason initially then if a poor quality article gets deleted then 're-written, we can NFD for a different reason the next time? Answer when ever, am in no rush for an answer. Tags.
At 10:16, Dec 28, 2014
HumanBeing said:
Sorry for being vague and not checking my work there. What I want to know really is does giving multiple reasons for NFDing make sense in the big picture? I thought that an article can only be NFD-ed for any reason once, for example ACC. If an article NFD-ed for ACC is re-written, but still inaccurate, we can't NFD for ACC a second time. So, if an article is NFD-ed for lots of reasons at the beginning of its life, then gets NFD, or saved, but is still NFD-able, it can't be NFD-ed again for ANY of those reasons. Is it not easier to get rid of articles that don't meet standards if we don't unleash the whole arsenal at the beginning?

Hey, Matt,
Thank you for your rollback on wikiHow:Use Advanced Wiki Syntax Formatting. Any clue as to what funkiness allows the Table of Contents to be rendered by the magic words __TOC__ here?
Alternatively, do you know how to display the toc manually these days as I sure would like to put at the top of this article.
At 00:52, Dec 30, 2014
Alabaster said:
Look in this link three fourths the way down and you will see the toc rendered. Just wondering how to capitalize on the funkiness, but I can't replicate it and was wondering if your sharp eyes and superior knowledge could work toward insight on that particular instance of rendering.
BTW, I answered Kathy's user name change question (message above mine).

Hey when I signed out of wikiHow I noticed one of my articles had four ads. Why are we working so wikiHow can make money out of us. I think we should organise a strike.

Alabaster said:
Thank you Matt,
I am piling up a bunch of "Anna questions," but am actually trying to wring out the answers by other means and before she settles in two weeks hence. I will see if Sir Jeffrey can cipher on it, then put it before Krystle. I really don't have a goto engineer and hate to bother them with my petty dinkerings. Carston might also have insight.

Heh, I'm never completely MIA - during every wikibreak, I feel a seemingly irresistible temptation to pop back in from time to time! :)
I saw your note to Krystle about User:Milanfan101. I'm leaving her to consider whether it's blocking time or not, but I did notice that said patroller has made a lot of good rollbacks, so I picked out one to touch base on: http://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Milanfan101&diff=16254078&oldid=16252690

Hey there Saviour! I was wondering if you could tell me more about the Character article standards, and the articles which are nfd'd based on those grounds. I often find myself skipping articles tagged for nfd|cha, and feel that this is one part of the deletion policy I'm not yet fully acquainted with .
Seasons greetings! :)
At 02:43, Dec 31, 2014
Krystle said:
Thanks for letting me know about that patroller! They actually did quite well on patrol coach - hence not catching my attention. When someone has a tendency to rollback too much, a tight patrol limit will do the trick, since all rollbacks go through RC. I checked the patrol log too and didn't see anything bad approved. If you did see bad stuff getting approved though, let me know!
Oh - and an easy way to check a new patroller is to use Quality Guardian. Open the options, select patrols, and the also enter a username :)

Hey Matt, I have a question about the tags, If you remove an NFD tag you obviously have to be an Admin or an NAB. But is it ok if non admin or NAB remove stub tags without making any changes to the article?
