Mike Shinoda
Dear Mikeblas, I've tried to find a solution. Instead of continuing to write "nu metal and rapcore", I've removed "rapcore" from the intro, also because there isn't under Shinoda's picture. Egr, 5/7/2006
Question
I don't know if this is the proper way to get in touch with mikeblas, but I'll try it.
It appears that mikeblas removed some material that I added to the entry "Radio Receiver". I don't understand what was objectionable about my submission. Can mikeblas or anyone else explain?

Hi Mikeblas, I think you would make a good administrator on the English Wikipedia. Any interest? —Quarl (talk) 2007-02-14 05:30Z

- Thank you for your kindness, KTF! :) Did you know that I once shared an elevator with Simona Halep? -- Mikeblas (talk) 18:47, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
- You are welcome. That's a nice claim to fame you've got that you've shared an elevator with the current Wimbledon Ladies Champion. I feel a bit jealous! Where did that happen? Simona Halep gained history when she won the Wimbledon title earlier this summer. She had only 3 unforced errors in the final, the fewest ever by a female player in a Grand Slam final.

- Her Wimbledon performance was pretty great! Turns out we were staying at the same hotel in Palm Springs for the BNP Paribas in 2015. It was surprising that she didn't have an escort--she walked alone, carrying her racquet bag. She hopped in the elevator and I told here that I knew she was playing (because I had tickets!) so I wouldn't bother her. I walked with her from the elevator to the valet, where my wife had gotten called for our car (and I went back to the room because I forgot the suncreen kit). Simona hopped into a waiting Lexus SUV with a driver. Do you go to any tourneys? -- Mikeblas (talk) 02:39, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
- That's a nice story Mikeblas. Yes, it's a bit surprising that she didn't have an escort. If she ever needed it, I'd be happy to volunteer to escort her! I live in London. I've enjoyed watching the ATP Finals a few times at the The O2 Arena in London. In 2021 the tournament is (unfortunately for me) moving to Italy. I've also been to the Queen's Club Championships in London a few times. I've only been to Wimbledon once so far. Tickets for Wimbledon are expensive to get hold of in advance, but I'd like to go again possibly next year. My favourite tennis player used to be Ivan Lendl. Currently it is Rafael Nadal. But on Wikipedia I edit in a neutral way and so I don't show any favouritism towards those two guys! Kind Tennis Fan (talk) 00:56, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

Andy Gray
Thanks for the alert. I didn't edit the reference you mention. Spicemix (talk) 11:26, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- here is the change you made: [1]. You changed one definition of the reference, but not the other, and that caused an error in the article. -- Mikeblas (talk) 01:51, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

- I think this is a change that you can make yourself. -- Mikeblas (talk) 00:56, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
correcting references =
Hi Mikeblas. I fixed a lot of these problems before. Its about copy/pasting the correct ref one to the one that is causing the problem. What apparently is the last one session you edited. So that narrows it down. I will fix it in the next week. Thanks for pointing out the problem. BasBr1 (talk) 03:01, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
