BrownHairedGirl is a Wikipedia admin

I have been an administrator since May 2006. Administrators have access to a few technical features which help with maintenance.

I regard admin powers as a privilege to be used sparingly and judiciously, but if you require the assistance of an admin, please feel free to leave a message on my talk page.

If you want admin help, please do try to explain clearly what you want done, and why, and please do remember to include any relevant links or diffs. I'll try to either help you myself or direct you to a more experienced person if appropriate.

If you leave a new message on this page, I will reply on this page unless you ask me to reply elsewhere.

Francis Arkwright

Hello BrownHairedGirl, happy new year to you. I've come across Francis Arkwright (politician), who was an MP in the UK and a Member of the Legislative Council in New Zealand. I've started to expand the article and I wonder whether you'd be interested in doing some work from 'your end'. You might have some good sources for what he did as an MP. If we can, I'd like to nominate this to DYK once done (has to be done within five days of an expansion starting). The main source that I'm using says that "we presume that Francis had a short spell as an MP for Hampshire". I've had a quick search on leighrayment, but couldn't confirm this.

Reginald Berkeley

See Reginald Berkeley (which you have contributed to) for my proposal to merge the two articles as I am certain that Reginald Berkeley (politician) and Reginald Berkeley (writer) are the same person, as confirmed by the obituary of Captain Reginald Berkeley in The Times of 1 April 1935 page 9, which refers to his plays and also to his career as an MP (presumably not an April Fools Day hoax!). Could you reply on the article talk page please, as I have asked several people for comments. Hugo999 (talk) 12:16, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

O'Donnell article

Hi. Long time no hear. Happy 2012, belatedly. I just edited the O'Donnell article and removed a lot of POV. Whatever your personal feelings on the history in question I know you always uphold the rules and regs designed to make Wikipedia the great encyclopaedia it is. I am pretty sure certain users will seek to restore the POV and unsourced text in question. I was not seeking out this article but wound up there after starting at the Molly Maguires article, which I also de-POVed. Anyway I am going offwiki for a while and given my past disputes with some other editors and the fact that I am seeking an objective third party, I was hoping you could watchlist the two articles in question. By all means review the article diffs and if you think I rv anything I should not have, please fix as necessary. As you are an admin I assume this request is not untoward. If so, I apologize and plead ignorance. Thanks. Quis separabit? 04:16, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

P.S.: Your wikibreak "until November 2011" appears to be outdated. Also, I just realized you might not remember me based on my new signature (same username), but it's me, Rms125a. I really hope the sig is not offensive to you, but given the refusal of ANI to require other editors with (what I consider) even more provocative usernames/usernames-signatures to change them, I felt this was the only possible response to allow me to edit with integrity. Didn't want you to think I was not being straight up. Yours, Quis separabit? 04:21, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

Template:Upper_tier_local_government_areas_in_the_Republic_of_Ireland

Hi BHG, given your recent nomination of Template:Local administrative units of Ireland at TfD. I would like to draw your attention to this new similar Template:Upper_tier_local_government_areas_in_the_Republic_of_Ireland created by the same editor. It appears to be currently unused.
