An Garda Síochána

Regarding An Garda Síochána, strictly speaking you are right but An Garda Síochána redirects to Garda Síochána, and also its more common to say The Garda Síochána rather than An Garda Síochána (except in RTE). Also since 99.9999% of Wikipedia readers have no knowledge of Irish grammar its more helpful to have a 'the' rather than an confusing 'An' which isn't an English word but a completely different Irish word! I'm not changing it in the main article only in links. Tx, Snappy (talk) 19:44, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 11

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Dollymount, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dubliner (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Ten years!

Happy tenth, Alison! Acalamari 10:06, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

As has been said in the message above, happy tenth Wiki-anniversary, Alison! I would also estimate that it's been around seven years since we first met here. I'm glad you're still editing and am even happier that we're still friends. :) Best. Acalamari 10:06, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

• Thanks!! I can't believe it's been that long. How time flies .. :) - Alison ^❤ 10:11, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Black Sabbath fan sock

Hi Alison. Can you take a look at this? This comment and the acct's edits struck me as suspicious. I reported a few of these Black Sabbath fan socks to B.Sadowski a while back, but he doesn't seem to be around much. INeverCry 03:57, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

• Ok - sorted. There are underlying accounts, and the IP is now blocked. I don't want to tag it, for obvious BLP reasons. Thanks again! - Alison ^❤ 05:14, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks. This guy's amassing a pretty good sock collection. He could've picked a better band though. INeverCry 06:00, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Invitation to join the Ten Year Society

Dear Allie,

I'd like to extend a cordial invitation to you to join the Ten Year Society, an informal group for editors who've been participating in the Wikipedia project for ten years or more. Well done :)

Best regards, — Scott • talk 12:17, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

Being nosy

So I was looking at the source of your snazzy user page - as one does - and noticed that you've set up colors in the CSS using subpages. Smart technique. I hadn't thought of that, but into the box of tricks it goes. — Scott • talk 11:46, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

• Thanks, Scott. I'd love to claim credit for that little trick, but I'm pretty sure I thieved it from someone else :) - Alison ^❤ 12:12, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
  • Isn't that always the way? Reminds me of learning HTML by looking at the source of people's GeoCities pages, long ago in the age of legends the mid-90s. — Scott • talk 12:52, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Why did you remove my work?

Why did you remove my work at Paul Levinson? And why did you use the edit summary "Largely unreliably sourced"? The information I added is sourced by two of Paul Levinson's books. There are at least half-a-dozen Levinson sources used in the article, why are the two books that I used unreliable? RBlackmore69 (talk) 17:02, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

• Followed up on your talk page - Alison ^❤ 03:52, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

Commons/pt.wiki sockmaster active here

Hi Allie. Can you have a look at [1]and [2]? I don't know if User:Clécio Brito does anything bad here, but I did notice atleast 5 of their socks in the history of Carmen Miranda, a favorite focus for this sockmaster. I just like to make CUs here aware of cross-wiki activity. Take care. INeverCry 01:41, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
