User talk:Alan Glennon

Hi Alan,

Thanks for the geyser story submission.

I had to move it to a different page, because it seems that you accidentally renamed the submitted stories template, rather than creating a new page for your story. No permanent harm done, though. I restored the old page, and I think I saved all your edits as well. The new story is here.

Do you have any more information from the fellows who saw the geyser erupt? A quote via email or something?

Anyway, thanks again for the submission, Your friendly neighborhood Wikinews administrator, Pingswept 04:37, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

Pingswept,

I haven't received any additional quotes or comments at this point. Tomorrow (~9 hours from now -- morning at Yellowstone park), there will undoubtedly be a flood. The weather at the geyser appears to have been quite pleasant at the time of eruption -- so park visitors were surely there when the thing started. They will have interesting stories to tell.

Sorry about the "move" mistake.

 * Great. I'll keep my ears open. Don't worry about the move thing-- no harm done.

Hi, and thanks!
I would strongly encourage you to remove the e-mail address from your user page, though... If you'd like I can remove it from history of your user page as well.

Thanks for the great article (and the scoop!). I see you're adding notes as I type here, so I'll end now and read up. - Amgine/talk 23:57, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

Re: Hi, and thanks!
Yes, thanks. I removed my email address from the notes and my user page. I added my email in my account preferences.
 * I see that. Once you added your e-mail account to preferences, people can now e-mail you through Wikinews without ever knowing your address; which is nice if you wish to avoid spam. Using your account address http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/User:Alan_Glennon (or Alan Glennon to get Alan Glennon) is a good way to link your name on Wikinews. Using four tildes ~ will also put in the link, and the time you wrote it, sort of a signature/timestamp deal in the software. - Amgine/talk 00:11, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
