A cookie for you!

I don't know if you like homemade chocolate chip cookies or not, but I just baked this one just for you. Thanks for your very helpful comment in the Teahouse! ♥Th78blue (talk)♥ 20:25, 3 April 2022 (UTC)

You're welcome, and thank you for the cookie. I figure out a lot of how's-that-done questions by clicking on an article's "edit mode" and seeing what formatting was used. Best wishes on your Wikipedia work. Karenthewriter (talk) 20:32, 3 April 2022 (UTC)

Articles

Hi, thanks for writing interesting, well written articles. Please keep it up, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 23:21, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

(I had thanked Atlantic306 for reviewing Blair of the Mounties.

Thank you!

I really appreciate you taking the time to read over my article (Draft:Bill McCloud) and reply to me over at the Teahouse. Thank you! Neojin9 (talk) 22:56, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

You are welcome. I spent a few decades trying to get magazine articles published (many created on a manual typewriter!) but, even though I had writing experience, for my first three years as a Wikipedia editor I limited myself to improving existing articles before attempting to create my first online encyclopedia article, and I had no idea if my effort would be accepted. (It was.) I regularly read through The Teahouse, and know many novices resubmit their declined drafts without making any of the changes reviewers have said are necessary. I was impressed that you had done a lot of work on your draft article, and you understood what a reliable reference was, so I wanted to give you some encouragement.

P.S. As an amateur historian I've saved close to two decades of American Heritage issues, and I remember reading Bill McCloud's May - June 1988 article. Karenthewriter (talk) 23:46, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

Quick note on pings

Hey! I noticed your edit at the Teahouse trying to add a ping to a user after your original message. Just for reference, that doesn't actually work—a ping basically needs to be part of a new message to actually notify the user. See H:PINGFIX for some more info there. Anyways, thanks for all you do and happy contributing! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 02:25, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
