[edit] Edit on Talk:U.S. Senators call for Idaho Senator Larry Craig to resign
Done Thanks for pointing that out. :) irid t i e 21:46, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
- Not a problem, thanks for the quick turnaround on that request. I'm starting to pay more attention to Wikinews, and I'm missing my mop on en.wp and Commons every time I trip across something more than a couple of days old. :) EVula // talk // 21:48, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well, fortunately for you, it's not hard to get a mop here. I call myself a Janitor, in fact.

- Hehe, trust me, I've already eyed the requirements. :) My first "real" edit was at the beginning of August... dunno if that counts as "two month's work" though. Not really worried about requirement #2; been an admin on en.wp for a little over 10 months, a Commons admin for a couple of months, and I'm active on a ton of other projects. :) EVula // talk // 21:54, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
- Poke me some time if you want a nomination. I'd gladly throw you in front of the lions.
- By the way, talking is much more fun in IRC. If you have an IRC client, join us here. irid t i e 21:57, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the consideration. I might very well take you up on the offer. :)
I'm really just killing time right now; IRC is the devil when it comes to eating up time. I doubt my girlfriend would appreciate me being late in picking her up... EVula // talk // 21:59, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] On being nominated
Well, I'm out of town for the moment. When I have an internet connection which doesn't resemble a 56k modem, I'll take a look at your editing history and see what I can do. :) irid t i e 03:58, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
- Haha, that works. Worst case scenario? I have more edits under my belt. Hardly a bad thing. :) EVula // talk // 04:42, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
