If so, then just slap your topic in here and I'll give it a look over. I will inform you in the talk page if I need to doublecheck whether certain bits are purposely wrong grammatically. I look forward to helping you. –   02:20, 8 May 2009

hmm, sounds familiar... – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 02:57 May 08, 2009

Yeah no one ever puts articles in there though. lol –   03:04, 8 May 2009

I see what you mean this will obviously be different. JackOfSpades (talk) 03:23, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Oh shush up you. I'm just puttin' this out there. Now shush! Besides, I'll get to it quicker if it's on here. –   06:09, 8 May 2009

So it will be faster if people do it wrong? Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 06:43, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I was told to offer my services in the dump, so I am. –   09:22, 8 May 2009

Ew. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 09:23, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Ok, if feel the need to proofread stuff, can you do ICarly? --Mnb'z 07:12, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Did it. Fixed some errors, made mention of them on the talk page. No editor in the world is going to correct every single itty bitty mistake in one go-through. But I mentioned what was wrong. –   09:34, 8 May 2009

"She and Sam goes on a quest..." Hmmm. ;-) Rabbi Techno kvetch Contribs FOXES 09:41, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I think that the big error is that we have a page on ICarly. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 09:45, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I quite agree. Rabbi Techno kvetch Contribs FOXES 09:47, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

The only good episode was the one where ICarly flew too close to the sun and her wings melted. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 09:58, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I don't know, I kinda liked the one where she single-handedly broke up the Belgian King Leopold's empire in central Africa and personally led the revolt against the bastions of monarchy in the late 1800s central-west Europe. ---kun "whisper sweet nothings into thine ear..." 10:41, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I have perfect Inglish. (talk) 01:43, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Yes, but that one really should've been a two-parter. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 10:50, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Sadly, its much better than the old version. --Mnb'z 14:20, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

That thing's ToC is longer than anything I've ever read. (talk) 00:06, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Not to complain, but you only made two corrections in a 150k+ article: one of which was clearly wrong, and the other was left in the wrong tense. --Mnb'z 14:20, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I know I didn't correct everything, I started getting sick to my stomach, besides, who would WANT to look through the whole iCarly thing? lol. I was hospitalized last week when I started the whole thing. So yeah. I will look at others that are thrown at me, just not big ass things that no one is gonna take the time to read. BTW, as for the goes on a quest thing, I went by the rule of taking the second person out of the sentence. If you take 'sam' out it is 'She goes on a quest' it would not be right saying 'she go on a quest'. That's how I learned it. Alternatively you can say 'They (Sam and Carly) go on a quest' –   07:37, 11 May 2009

Where did you learn the rule that lists of single items take singular verbs? Is that some sort of strange regional dialect of English? --Mnb'z 14:32, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Yes it's called: American, public school English class. (talk) 04:45, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Do some institution of edumacation seriously teach that somewhere? --Mnb'z 05:37, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Yes, the school system of Alabama. -_- I apologize for my mistakes. –   13:44, 12 May 2009
