Why create the pages if you want them deleted? Please check your bot so we can unblock it. Drini 22:03, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Ok, unblocked. Maybe I can help you, what is exactly what you need to be done? Drini 22:24, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Merry Christmas, Jimmy!!!

Dear Jimmy!

Could you please help me translate This article for the Scots (.sco) Wikipedia. Even if you could help with a one or two-sentence stub would be great since it would help to serve as a basis for future expansion.

This would mean the world to me. Merry Christmas, thanks a million!!! ;)
