Please stop removing my personal attributions. If I wrote it, I want it to be identified as mine, so if someone has a problem they can talk to me about it. |

Also hi back! By the way, I just pointed our local mailing list at your site, as they were beginning to start a scrambled wiki of their own, and the wikipedia format just works so much better. So...expect an influx, as Carolingia houses a lot of knowledgable but...err...vocal people. ;-) -- [[User:Metahacker|Metahacker]] 11:22, 25 Oct 2004 (EST) |

I dont want to hide behind anonymity, especially for my views on stuff like "The Renaissence never happened". |

I dont mind it being edited, or even amended, but for scholarship to work you have to be able to stand behind your work. |

Tobin, |

You seem to be an admin. Do you think it would be okay if I invited the Slavic Interest Group onto here? One challenge is that I don't think that the SIG is limited to SCA people only. What's the cut-off policy between on-topic and off-topic here? The current page is http://slavic.freeservers.com/ and suffers from ads and lots of dead links.

On the page [[Humanists]] I have added a section about SCA personas being humanists. It contains a bullet point beginning with the words " You can quote several Greek texts ...". Down the bottom someone's added a comment "Specific names to drop could be ...". Can you take that comment and do your HTML trick to make it a side-note to the bullet point above about greek texts? I'd do it myself but now I can't remember where you explained how to do it and my HTML skills are fairly rough. |

:My jaw about hit the ground when I saw what version of the wiki you are running here, it's sorely outdated even for the 1.4 series.

===Hello from a Wikipedian=== |

Hi Tobin -- I noticed the article on [[Cunnan]] at Wikipedia, and dropped by to check it out. '''Very cool!''' I also noticed the authorship discussion. In case you aren't already aware of it, there are a lot of good resources at [http://meta.wikipedia.org Meta Wikipedia] and at [http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?WhyWikiWorks Meatball Wiki]. Good luck! [http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Bcorr Wikipedia:User:Bcorr] [[User:64.91.162.225|64.91.162.225]] 04:51, 25 Dec 2003 (EST) |

:Noted. I've got some time before uni goes back so I'll update Cunnan (as well as some other sites). Part of the problem with upgrades has been the versions of PHP and MySQL used on the previous server. - [[User:Tobin|Tobin]] 02:21, 10 Jul 2006 (EST) |

So, any idea what the story with symbols is? I tried to move the Æthelmearc page to the right spot and it said it couldn't submit the form. And you will have noticed that your recipe pages are a mess too. Also, your change of the name Æthelmearc on the Kingdom page made no difference to me. I'm not sure if thie is a viewer specific thing. Oh, and get some sleep! |

Tobin, I have noticed that the [[List Keeper]] link redirects to [[List keeper]] which wants to redirect to [[Lists Officer]], but doesn't. Is this to be expected? -- [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 13:26, 17 Jun 2004 (EST) |

This person has spammed Cunnan --User 144 13:29, 13 May 2006 (EST)before in the exact same way. It might be an idea to consider a longer ban than usual.
Thorgrimr's suggestion
Hi, I just got this message from Thorgrimr, and thought it was more appropriate for you:

Apparently masonry@lochac.sca.org, the admin and assets side of the kingdom, wants to contact you but doesn't have Skype. Could you please tell them how else to contact you.
