Hello, I hope you're feeling better!  I saw some recent activity on your end, so I thought I would drop you a line.  If it's all the same to you, I am going to focus my efforts mainly on cleaning up and creating missing articles for [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|GTA:SA]], and eventually [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City|GTA:VC]], as I know these games the best, and am trying to avoid seeing too much information on [[GTA IV]], which seems to have sparked a flood of new users and edits.  I have to wait until I can afford the PS3, so I'm trying not to fall victim to spoliers!  Along these lines, I have been patrolling recent edits for the past few days, and most seem to be on articles pertaining to GTA IV, considering its recent release.  This is not to say I don't want to patrol recent edits (which I am more than happy to do), just that I find myself at a bit of a disadvantage, not knowing whether the content of the edits is factually sound and/or relevant.  I have been mainly checking to see that their general aim seems to be improving the article.
I guess what I'm asking with my long-winded post is this: are there other administrative functions that need another brain and set of hands that I might throw my efforts into (in addition to my usual edits)?  In particular, are there problem articles/users that need attention?  Which special pages need the most help?  Etc., etc.  You get the idea.  Also, what is considered as spam here, how do I detect it, and how do I deal with it?

:Please remove the unneccessary content. It seems to be an attempt at copying *something* in particular across (eg [[Template:gtaiv]], yet the user isn't sure what to copy so copies the entire footer. Clearly just an error, I'd be really grateful if it were tidied up. Thanks - [[w:c:gta:User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] ([[:w:c:gta:User_talk:Gboyers|?]]) 20:40, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
