Hey OptimisticFool,

I am impressed by your work tidying up the wiki, however I wanted to point out that your {{pl|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Minor_Foods&diff=533685&oldid=533669 edit}} in Minor Foods {{pl|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Minor_Foods&diff=533700&oldid=533685 removed}} the span tag I had just added.  The span was used for an {{pl|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Suge_Brown&diff=533670&oldid=531077 anchor}} used in the redirect.  I'm not sure if it was an accident, but I wanted to ask you to be more careful with larger edits like those.  I also wanted to ask you if you have by any chance removed other similar span tags in previous edits? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 21:33, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

:It was removed intentionally; I suppose I should have mentioned it in the edit summary.  Your anchor was redundant since the redirect works without it (note the '''id="Suge Brown"''' that was already part of the table).  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 21:39, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

::Yeah, sorry about that, I just realized my oversight. I was about to remove my comment just now. My edit summary was about to be: "undid revision 533711; I felt I had one of those "I'm an idiot" moments, and I was right! Sorry O.F." (for future reference).  Though yes, a clearer edit summary would have been a lot of help too.  L8r! --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 21:45, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay, you got it. I feel sorry for the homsarrunner, though. He tried so hard and he missed it. Oh well. You got it right. You're officially entered into the hall of fame and win this userbox.

Glad you liked the Trogdor, and since you asked, I posted the original screen shots on photobucket:

This is the adjective video game I've ever played

I've noticed you still don't appear to have an opinion on that article. Did you get to read my explanations on that talk page as to why it is not a real running gag? Bad Bad Guy 17:07, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

If I wanted to comment further on that article, I would have done so. OptimisticFool 17:20, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

You forgot the muskrat....

Subterfuge

Wait, what? I see through your plan: to flood the history with similar edits and summaries to throw us off our guard so that you can sneak your hidden ALT text agenda edits in. Crafty. ;) On a more serious note, why not do the 280px adjustments en masse, or at least in groups of, say, 5 or 10? — It's dot com 17:11, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Oh wait. I get it. You changed the content of the image, thus requiring a new caption. Hmm. Maybe it would be better for you to upload images with new names if you're replacing the actual content (as opposed to just making the format better), rather than overwriting the old files. — It's dot com 17:13, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
I wouldn't edit Fonts at all except that it's a live page and I don't think it ought to have an image column width of 500+ (nor should its ALT text be incorrect) for any amount of time. As far as overwriting images, I think it's been appropriate where the filename is the name of the font (which is ideal, IMO). Yes, the history of Fonts is being affected by all of this, but that's another subject. OptimisticFool 18:17, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

IRON CUP'd!

Nice work, Fonteroy!
I'm buying you a pizza.

Thank you, Mr. Couchyman, for all your dedicated and hard work on Fonts and the related. Here, have some soup. --Mario2.PNG Super Martyo boing! 02:48, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Mr. Couchyman? Nice.... Anyway, thanks for the stew my Brother. (Makes me want to shout "Amen, Brother!" like those TV evangelists.) But I want a pizza trophy when I'm done, okay? =] OptimisticFool 05:36, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
As requested, here is your pizza trophy. Awexome job, OF. Homestar-Winner (talk) 00:47, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Right on! Thanks, Winner! =] OptimisticFool 05:05, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
