[edit] Sig

Hi,

You can use normal web formatting. Best is to use css styles, but that depends on what you want to achieve.
Paste the code for your sig in the "signature"-edit box in the first tab of "my preferences", and don't forget to check the "Raw signature" check box beneath it.
That should do it. Don't hesitate to call back if you need further assistance. -- ➌  LucVerhelst  16:28, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

It's nice, a bit too pink for me, but that's just taste. :-D

No problem for taking my "design", I kind of borrowed and adapted it from someone else, too. Isn't that what Wikipedia is about, the open source thing ?

One remark : I would put a space before the 'C' of Connor, and after the last </font> tag. Otherwise, things seem glued together. You best use "&nbsp;", a plain space is removed by the browser. -- ➌  LucVerhelst  21:23, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

I see what you mean about the light purple.

About the spaces : something weird happened. The spaces weren't there the first time (this edit : [1]), but after I archived the larger part of the page, the spacing was right (this edit : [2]. And now, after your changes, there seems to be a little too much space... I really don't understand what happened!

Another problem : I'm using Firefox. I just opened the page in IE6, and the rightmost border seems to disappear under the light purple background of your name. You might fix that by adding a right border to the span your name is in (with border-right: 1px solid MediumSlateBlue; but you know that). (This trick is not going to get you any awards...)

Success. -- ➌  LucVerhelst  21:55, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dispute resolution and junk articles

If a new user is removing speedy deletion tags on that crap article they created, it doesn't need to be taken to any dispute resolution. You can just leave a note about it on Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. The dispute resolution mechanisms are for disputes about the content of an article, not about whether an article should be deleted or not (for non-speedy cases, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion), or whether a user is being disruptive. —Centrx→talk • 22:08, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] B's Star Pic

Great work getting that pic on the Barnard's star page. I had noticed that NASA link but didn't see any arrow pointing to the star. Did you or someone add that little yellow line or are my eyes no good? Marskell 11:05, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Very quickly: thx for the leg-work on the pic, and yes I intend to nominate the page for FA soon (a few tweaks needed). I'll post more tomorrow. Marskell 22:50, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Butterley Tunnel

Dear DogNewTricks

The article is no longer short. It is larger than many already in Wikipedia, it is properly cited and images have been added. It is larger than daughter articles which have already branched from the Cromford Canal page. Would you consider re-visiting the page and changing your vote to Keep.

Yours Faithfully Martin Cordon

[edit] Sex pistols

I've done little bits of work to keep it an FA, but User:Coil00 is the real hero. Marskell 19:19, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Barnard's Star

I have added it to FAC: Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Barnard's Star. Any comment appreciated! Marskell 22:19, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

On October 20, 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Carolina Dog, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.
