Concordia is currently trying to relaunch. I, and all the members of the ex-council, wish to welcome new members to the group. We are a group who aim to promote remaining civil, in an environment where messages can easily be interpretated wrongly.
We are a community, so can only work though community contributions and support. It's the helping that counts.
The council expired one month ago, but due to the current position of the group the current council will remain until the position of the group can be assessed, and whether it would be sensible to keep Concordia going. For most decisions, however, it will be decided by all who choose to partake in discussions. I am trying to relaunch because of the vast amounts of new members we have received, demonstrating that the aims are supported.
If you wish to opt of of further talk-page communications, just let us know here.

Sorry about that! I just happened to catch the creation in the new users log, before you tagged it as a doppleganger account. Natalie 15:50, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Believe it or not, the website used to have that title. Perhaps he had to deal with lawyers at some point. At any rate, I'm glad Nicely's changed it, and I'm glad you noticed he had. --Steven Fisher 18:50, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Dear User:NetRolller 3D: you changed my ligatures "Æ" -> "AE", and "Æ" -> "Ae" - with a remark about Britannica. Why, for the love of Mike? My source for these was the "Shorter Oxford Dictionary", not Britannica. What's wrong with ligatures (note: not diphthongs) anyway? I use them whenever appropriate - they're there in the "edit box" to use ... so: why not? (And: why should I not change it back again? - Whatever else I may be, I'm not a vandal!)

In a recent edit, you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect other forms of English in Wikipedia articles.
For subjects exclusively related to Britain (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the article is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. If you have any queries about all this, just ask anyone on Wikipedia and they will help you. Thank you. Matthew 10:19, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
Because I'm British, and that's how we spell it over here, generally. As the template is an international topic we defer to the creators use of English (which is Br-Eng in this case), as per the MoS. Matthew 10:28, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

I took the green E off my signature, so it's highly unlikely to get any traffic. I'll probably just redirect it to my userpage. — Deckiller 19:30, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
The Wikipedia:Counter-Vandalism Unit project is under consideration to be moved to ((inactive)) and/or ((historical)) status. Another proposal is to delete or redirect the project. You have been identified as a project member and your input as to this matter would be welcomed at WT:CVU#Inactive.3F and at the deletion debate. Thank you!

You said:
Wikipedia uses many methods of quoting. Use of ""[ref]. is one of them. "" says XXX[ref]. is another. We use many more, such as above where I quote you. Brackets are used within a quote for content not part of the quote. For example:

You added the following text to Ping of death on 2007-04-24:
Could you clarify how you came up with the megabyte size? If the structure of the IP header limits the fragment offset to (213−1)×8 = 65528 bytes and the total length to 216−1 = 65535 bytes, it seems to me that the data could not reach further than 131063 bytes, even if we're dealing with an invalid IP header that has IHL = 0. This is almost a megabit but nowhere near a megabyte. 85.23.32.88 (talk) 11:27, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

I am using Wikipedia through Tor (xB Browser to be exact) right now, and my current exit node (204.8.156.142) has incorrect block settings. According to WP:TOR, Tor exit nodes should get an indefinite anon-only+no account creation+no-autoblock block, set to expire in 2010 if they are not abused. However, this one has a full block, possibly including autoblock, with the block description being "This is an open proxy or a zombie computer", which doesn't fulfill the "confirmed abuse source" requirement for a hard block; also the expiration time appears to be an error (Tor exit nodes should be indefinite). Note that the next request template shouldn't be taken as a full unblock request, but a modification request. --NetRolller 3D 19:41, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
Block message:
((blockedproxy))
Decline reason: Sorry, but soft-blocking Tor nodes is not the policy, it's something that some admins thought was a good idea, mainly before the IP block exemption tool was added. So the non-anon-only block is appropriate. Mangojuicetalk 20:41, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
Can you explain why you connect through Tor? It might be possible to give you IP block exemption. Mangojuicetalk 20:41, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

I see that you fixed the font in wikimedia:File:Libyan_Uprising.svg, can you help me fix the font in wikimedia:File:Map_of_collective_bargaining_legislation.svg? The current font used has a kerning issue when rendered by wikipedia, although looks correct when I display it directly or render it to png using imagemagick. I assume it's simply due to wikipedia not having the font, but even if the font gets replaced, the replacement font should kern correctly.
