Addition
editFirst of all, brilliant page (and thanks for the link retiring essay I wrote). Second of all, I have a suggestion for an addition to the essay that you could work in there however you feel is best (if you want): if you are ever confronted by an administrator for any of your actions, you have to immediately post back to the administrator stating an apology (even though you'll later follow the exact actions again) and begging with the words "Please don't block me!!!" (always at least three !s). Seriously, I get that response way too frequently. Feel free to use that/reword it/whatever, or just ignore it because the essay is fantastic already.

- This essay is bloody brilliant. Shame most of the teenagers will miss the sarcasm... :) Daniel (talk) 02:28, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, but they might learn who Mies van der Rohe was (not normally covered in the 8th grade curriculum):-) Anyhow, thanks to you both for the kind words. I'm surprised anyone even knew about my "secret page" - barnstars all 'round!!! Voceditenore (talk) 09:23, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
- Can mine be the irony barnstar? Wait, don't block me for suggesting that! :) Daniel (talk) 14:54, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

<insert irreverent barnstar here> Congratulations! This essay has been added as a "See Also" on my very adult funnies page!. Terrific essay, spot on. Keeper ǀ 76 18:42, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
That was wonderful! Thank you for the informative and enjoyable read. I'm very glad that I haven't done most of those things! PrincessofLlyr (talk) 15:10, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
That was some ****ing great ****! :D But seriously, thanks for taking the time to brighten up my day as well as many others'. The information is all true, and I'm happy to say that I don't and will not fall into the category written about. Airplaneman talk 05:48, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
This is going to be very useful in the coming months. Thank you, and I look forward to your future guides. Infringement153 (talk) 02:12, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
I am not a Wikipedian (just yet), so if you want to delete this comment, go ahead. I enjoyed very much "A Handy Guide". Would you believe "Fooling about one's achievements on Wikipedia"? Perhaps I will eventually write that article. I hesitate to edit bogus achievements as they were cancelled out almost immediately by a particularly powerful organization. I see that you made two edits on one page that fairly makes me want to throw up everytime I view it. If you want to know more you can contact me at jmf1950@yahoo.com. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.6.120.109 (talk) 15:58, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
