Eógan Bél

I undid your edit to Eógan Bél.You changed Inbanda to Imbanda .the correct word is Inbanda. An old irish word meaning womanish which was the nickname of this king's son.you seem to be using a bot so i don't follow the logic of this change.I put it back to the correct spelling.Timelinefrog (talk) 08:21, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

You are now an administrator

Congratulations, I have just closed your RfA as successful and made you an administrator. Take a look at the administrators' how-to guide and the administrators' reading list if you haven't read those already. Also, the practice exercises at the new admin school may be useful. If you have any questions drop me a message at my talk page. Best wishes, WjBscribe 02:11, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Spear Physical Therapy Deletion

Hello E,

This was my first post, and I would like to understand how to possibly post about a business without it being considered "blatant advertising"? I had continued writing about the founders and their education/sports experience, with additional references. (which was the point at which I discovered you had deleted it).

I do disagree that it is advertising, as it is simply basic information that anyone would want to know about a company. Is it because it is too local and does not have global appeal? One of the Founders, Dan Rootenberg, is detailed on the Israeli Baseball League Wikipedia entry, as well as mentioned on other player entries.

Thank you much, Todd

Hey E, congrats on the admin tools. :) Just wanted to point out that you blocked this guy, even though he hadn't vandalized since his first warning. · AndonicO Talk 01:56, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

No problem, happens to all of us. As to what you should do... you can either leave it alone (chances are he would have vandalized anyway), but I think in this case (since he hasn't vandalized since the first rather than last warning) it would be better to reduce the block to 3 hours. · AndonicO Talk 02:00, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
