Hi AD. For how long would you like your talk page protected? ] (]) 18:21, 5 December 2010 (UTC) | |||
:Just for a week or so. Zsfgseg is becoming less active and the Scruffy vandal has pretty much retired but Jcarleo is probably pretty pissed off at me for starting the ban discussion. But a long semi would stop anons from communicating with me which is not a good thing. ] (]) 18:26, 5 December 2010 (UTC) | |||

== Unref button == | |||
{{Big Yellow Button}} | |||
Hey Access, I put the button on my talk page a few days ago, but sometime between this morning and tonight it floated off to the center--it was nicely lined up on the left before. It looks bad on my talk page right now, and I'd like to get it a bit smaller and on the left. Can I do that myself? I looked at the history of the template, but that technical stuff goes over my head. BTW, I love having the button there, and I think I've done a half a dozen at least in the last few days--great idea (I think you proposed it on ANI, no?). Thanks, ] (]) 01:39, 6 December 2010 (UTC) | |||
