welcome as Sysop!
:::I see you've given up on the fight over at Talk:TOE. Don't back down in the face of those brood of vipers; all they know how to do is hiss and spit. I haven't seen a worthy argument escape the lips of any of them! Probably because it doesn't exist.

== Welcome as Sysop! ==
Terry, you have indeed been promoted to Sysop, in recognition of your numerous high-quality edits. Welcome!
As Sysop, you can and should block vandals and obscene users by checking "Recent Changes," and you can also edit locked pages. In terms of blocking, please block for immediate duration any user who posts obscenity, or has obscenity in his user id. Don't all those users to return with a shorter block. The same is true for clear vandalism. Silliness, inappropriate entries, or repeatedly unproductive edits should be addressed by a warning on their talk page and/or a short block. Many Sysops have access to Checkuser and IP addresses, but use those only to track down and report vandalism to the appropriate entities.
The pages are locked for reasons including repeated vandalism or, in a few cases, high-quality efforts that should not be diluted or degraded. Caution should be exercised before editing them, and feel free to ask me first if there is any doubt. You can probably sense why a page was locked, and if it was due to vandalism then please feel free to improve it however you like.
Again, welcome, and a good Easter to you!--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 10:22, 6 April 2007 (EDT)
