User:10hadcockd
I don't think that this user name is profanity, it is 'head cocked' without the e's, as in tilting your head to the side. Nowyouseemetalk2me 14:17, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
- That's an option I guess. They're free to request the unblock if it so, or any reading ;-) Snowolf How can I help? 14:21, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 00:03, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

WikiAlerter
I would like to try the WikiAlerter program developed by Kingpin13, as I am active in new page patrolling. I would ask him to add my name to the userlist, but it says on his userpage that he will not be on Wikipedia until July 28th or later. I'm asking you because I saw your name on the userlist and noticed that you are an admin. Could you please approve me for use of the program? 95j (talk) 21:30, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Protection
Hey Snowolf, I was going to ask you to semi-protect Greece also, but I see you already did--indeed, sad. Thanks! Drmies (talk) 17:55, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Hiya
Could you kindly explain in plain English why the page for Sons Of South keeps being taken down when there are countless references to the group on google etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MisterProphecy (talk • contribs) 12:40, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
Contributions
Do you think my contributions on reverting vandalism are good? Is there an easier way to revert vandalism instead of using Twinkle? Solar Rocker|Talk to me! 14:26, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
Rollback
How much more experience do I need before I get the rights? Please reply you didn't to my last question :( Solar Rocker|Talk to me! 15:32, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
X-15 inadvertant spam/edit reversion
Snowolf, My apologies for the inadvertent spam, & thanks for the alert & offer of help. I should have asked about it yesterday, but RL intervened before I could. I have tried deleting the text before saving, using the sandbox to edit, writing in Gedit & copy-pasting, etc, with no effect. I have no idea what's happening. I have looked at my prefs, & can see nothing obvious that would make this happen. (I notice that this is partly boxed, which I have not formatted for, as can be seen from the edit page of this txt. Is this a page-size function?) Would mis-set 'scripts' cause these aberrations? I am in conservation with BilCat to try & sort it. If anyone else has a clue, please let me know via my talk-page. Thanks in advance. Firefox 3.6.7, Linux Mint 9.
Please read my answer in the X-15 talk-page for my edit reasons, & suggestion for new edit. Dick Holman 13:41, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
Update- I use WikiTweak, & it has been leaving the QuickiWiki spam on my edits. QuickWiki feature turned off now. Dick Holman. User:Archolman 22:03, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
