Oh, yeah, Anna's really awesome. Also super friendly like you. It's so cool what your inspiration drives you to create. For me, my inspiration develops in the form of short stories, but obviously those wouldn't be as visually stimulating as your creations. Adult kids? Hopefully carrying on their father's creativity and intelligence, the world could use a lot more of both.

I just chose your article on how to Rotate Forms About the Axes or Origin to be a Rising Star. That means it is one of the best new articles on wikiHow. Congratulations, and thanks for the great contribution!

your welcome

Which image do you mean? That article doesn't use the Fibonacci sequence. Methods 4 and 5 both work on Fibonacci, but I don't see an error in the examples used.

Or did you mean in a linked article? I do see an error in Calculate the Fibonacci Sequence. I'll replace that with the author's from the history.

You are welcome Chris. :-)

Oops! It looks like you accidentally approved a bad edit in while patrolling recent changes just now. That's okay though; you're still learning. I undid a batch of your recent patrols, to play it safe and have those edits reviewed again. I just want to make sure no bad edits were accepted while you're still learning your way around RC patrol.

If you haven't already, read our article on How to Patrol Recent Changes and give it another try! I'm happy to answer any questions you might have about patrolling. And remember, if you're not sure what to do, just press the "skip" button and you'll do fine :)

I'd imagine it is, if it counts the number of times you've reloaded the page, and a few views by other folks, too. But I don't know for sure - the view counts are a bit of a mystery sometimes :)

It's been a long time since that feature was implemented and I believe it was first done by an engineer who's no longer with wikiHow- but the info I passed on last time you asked about them was from our senior engineer :)

Yeah, same for me - it's working on mobile but I filed a bug for the desktop one. I think it's down to the apostrophe in the title. Cheers for the heads-up!

No prob! Thank youuu! :)

Congrats on being featured in our Community Achievements, Chris! You're awesome!

If you don't want to remove the stub tag or aren't sure if it's still a stub, just click "no" - your edit will still go through, but the tag will stay on, and a patroller can remove it if they feel it's no longer a stub. Cheers Chris! :)

Thank you Chris! I do the best I can to boost, but please let me know if you come across anything questionable about my boosting. I would be happy to address your concerns.

Thank you for the compliment, I'm glad to hear that. I do credit others that have helped me get where I am.

Your gift to me was so sweet; probably the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me here on wikiHow! I appreciate it very much and will put it on my user page in honour :)

I am part of the Ross Clan. I am not entirely sure whether Anderson is the war tartan but I will find out for you. My suspicions are 'no' but I will try and get back to you on that.

I am not sure which church you speak of near Aberdeen. You may be talking about the St Machar Cathedral? Anyway, I love your creativity!

Nice chatting to you :)

I cannot say I have heard of it. You may be thinking about somewhere else in Scotland?

You're welcome! :)

Yeah, I do a lot of long-distance running. It is a great hobby of mine. Do you play any sports?

And thanks for the wishes on my cold but to be honest, it has gotten worse. I appreciate your kindness though :)

Thanks for your edits on Create a Slideshow of Excel Images. Been approving your Capital changes....get it? ;)

Hi Chris, thank you for continuing to share your awesome expertise!

No prob Chris, just a false alarm based on the presence of sine, cosine, etc - copyviobot ain't perfect! I've removed it :)

HI Chris, You are wasting your time here. This site is founded by same person who founded ehow. Ehow was banned by all search engines for being a content farm. This site is also a content farm. A wiki is supposed to be community controlled. This is not the case here. Three or four wikihow editors pretty much control everything. Look in the history or articles, you will see Anna, Krystle and few others have input into everything. They control wikihow. More than 90% articles are just garbage filled only with keywords to generate traffic and ad revenue for them. Do not waste your time contributing to creating more garbage in the universe. Please do something better with your life.

Thanks for the invite. I'll wander over to Math one of these days. I do have an interest in that area, but it's pretty casual.

Nice start on How to Do Common Ratio Analysis of the Financials and congrats on the rising star!

"Nice work you did this past week, as mentioned in the Community Achievements, Adele!" - Thank you for the nice note acknowledging my efforts! You're awesome!

" I had to go over some old Acctg materials from years ago -- I was quite surprised that no one had done a ratios pkg for wH yet. I teied not to reinvent their wheels too much either. It's a fun one, and should prove useful for quite awhile I hope."

Oh wow, I love that idea!

Not sure which category numbers you mean, Chris?

Chris, it is I who should defer to your expertise. You know much more than I do about the subject at hand. You have the option, of course, of either undoing or re-editing my edits. Or you can simply explain what your disagreements are, and we can hash it all out together. Whatever you'd like. My edits were based exclusively on form rather than content, so if I've inadvertently changed your intended meaning in any instance, just let me know, and I'll be happy to make amendments or clarifications. It's your call.

Heya Chris,

I don't know of any particular issues there, but you keep track of those views in a way few other folks do, so you'd probably be the first to notice :)

Reuben did do some server maintenance yesterday, so my guess is that the numbers were affected by that. We can take some screenshots of things now and compare back in a couple of days, though. If there's a problem, hopefully we can track it down with screenshots and it can be fixed when there's some engineering time! I'll take a couple of screenshots now.

I'm sorry you're upset, Chris! I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to change the situation. The servers need maintenance from time to time, and this does have the potential to affect numbers at least in the short-term. Hope you can hang in there!
