Thank you for quality contributions in the field of astronomy, citizen of the world, for gnomish ambition, for your heartfelt welcoming quoting darkness and dream, for inspiring thoughts such as Respect, and for noticing darkness and dream, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

Thank you, Gerda! Seems like every time I read one of your posts I encounter your "words of reason and trust". Thank you for that, too! Be prosperous! Paine  09:08, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
You probably didn't read my talk then, in 2013 or now, - felt at home when reading your comment about age and health. Working on wake up, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:52, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
ps: I banned the health stuff to the archive, but kept my dangerous dreams and "I have a lot of compassion for Alakzi - as for other victims - but no intention to marry". (13 August) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:27, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
"Ahhh, Bach" (from M*A*S*H) and "the sleeper will awaken" (from Dune). Forgive the TV and film references – they just popped into my mind as I read your message. I still hope that Alakzi will bounce back. Too good an editor to lose. Oh how many times I have felt the sting of the negative passions of good Wikipedians. But "retired" is not in my personal dictionary!  Paine  11:10, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
Alakzi returned three times, always to my delight. Is "vanished" in your dictionary? See also. Just for curiosity: what do you get first when you "google" the name? (I would like to find out if you get the same result as I do.) Look for the name on my talk: excellent reading, many times. Caution: dangerous thoughts, imagine: amnesty. I am grateful to have had the chance and pleasure. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:04, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
Re: "vanished"... yes, and I suppose there are several reasons for WPNs to just vanish; however, I don't "see" myself vanishing until I'm past caring. First up on Google is Wikipedia:WikiProject Quality Article Improvement/Alakzi. Thank you, again, Gerda!  Paine  15:09, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Thank you, and have a sweet dish with your turkey, right from the cabal of the outcasts ;) - Feel free to post requests for improvements at their WP:QAIPOST. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:29, 26 November 2015 (UTC)

Thank you so much, Gerda Arendt! Wasn't it just last year? Time goes so fast for me now.  Paine  u/c 09:38, 20 November 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for being around! Alakzi still missing (but we email), Dreadstar dead, - wasn't the best of years, let's hope for the next. - Better news: by the power of the picture of the day (Eibingen Abbey, 2nd), I started an article (red link there) that was successfully nominated for DYK the same day, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:18, 20 November 2016 (UTC)
The pleasure is all mine, Gerda Arendt, to be sure! and congratulations for your DYK nom!

Thank you, Gerda, and thanks also for being so patient with me! P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 09:48, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
I once said "the one thing I learned here is patience" but am not aware of having needed it regarding you ;) - Operas: I wanted infoboxes, not side navboxes, and look at this only seven years later ;) - I will not vote for arb candidates who think that was a success of arbcom, - just common sense prevailed (but when you speak up for that sense you show battleground behaviour and need to be restricted, according to some arbs back then) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:55, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
By comparison, we see the one editor in the RM who suggested withdrawal. That editor used the same type of adjective in their previous rationale, called it a "selective list". And that editor was the first to firmly oppose "select operas" and the only one to suggest it "wastes the community's time". I seldom open RMs, and when I do open one I truly believe in its rightness. I was wrong this time, however, and your patience was and is appreciated!
