[edit] My RfA thanks

Hi, Whispering! Thank you for supporting me in my RfA, which succeeded with a final tally of 75/0/1! I hope I can live up to the standards of adminship, and I will try my best to make Wikipedia a better place. Feel free to send me a message if you need any assistance. :)

[edit] Roger Sharpe

Hey look, the criteria for CSD G12 changed since the last time I read them. It used to involve something about being "copied from a commercial content provider" - in other words, copyvios from websites other than newsmedia and the like were not eligible. I didn't know it had gotten broader. Thanks for the headsup! FreplySpang 22:55, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

I removed the {{nonsense}} tag you placed on Rupatadine. It is a real drug. —Brim 16:59, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chongas

Wikipedia may not be a slang guide, but it DOES contain articles about youth subcultures and stereotypes. Tamajared 22:50, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AfD: TV Show Articles

Heh, I may be of the opinion that the vast majority of TV show articles shouldn't exist, but I'm also too lazy to go around nominating them myself. I will content myself to voting for their deletion when they get nominated by others. --The Way 01:33, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Roly Poly

Okay, it's unprotected, simply copy your stub over the top of the template and keep it on your watch list. Good luck. I'll keep it on mine too. Good job on the stub, too! Steve block Talk 20:01, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

It is a copyvio just reworded slightly. Whispering 20:06, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Ideas can't be copyrighted, rewriting them in one's own words is not a copyright violation. Stifle (talk) 20:09, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
This was sent on Stifile's homepage as well. Since I am the creator of this article, I was not doing any plagarizing as claimed by you. All I was doing was trying to put IUFoST in the best foot forward. If you want to have a beef with me on that, then please leave me a message on my talk page. I can discuss it with you there.

[edit] Thank you!

I appreciate the recognition! Andre (talk) 03:34, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] November Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Admin Coaching (needs coaches!)
Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach.

Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.

What's New?
The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one!
A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  • The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
  • There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia.
  • The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested!
  • In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias.
  • A discussion of Esperanza's role in Wikipedia is being held, with all thoughts of all Esperanzians wanted!
  • Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello.
Signed...

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

[edit] setting up an independant wiki

Do you know how to set up an independant wiki site? I own the domain www.dothemusic.com and would like to set up a music wiki-site It would sort of be like a musicbrainz meets allmusic guide. I'm not interested in making a lot of money with it, just interested in creating a one-stop-shop for musician content and purchasing information. Please pass this on to anyone that might be interested. Thank you.

Without Wax, Paul Andrews

[edit] Eh?

Wasn't vandalising - was reverting vandslism by a school ip (216.11.46.10)

[edit] Barnstar

Wow, my first Barnstar! Thanks! --humblefool® 00:48, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Cheers for almost-instantly reverting Professor Sunderland's edit to my talk. He needs to be blocked. I would go back on IRC and discuss but I'm going to bed! Thanks again. — Gary Kirk // talk! 22:38, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] MfD

I didn't find them. I just deleted them after User:Calton collected and listed them. I've asked him the same question myself. Hopefully he answers soon. - Mgm|(talk) 22:55, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Calton responded on my talk page. - Mgm|(talk) 09:03, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Could you please give some input on Wikipedia:Userspace abuse. I'm probably going to rename it before asking for community input. - Mgm|(talk) 09:47, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Slowking

Must have been too sleepy last night :). I thought it was a page attacking Slowking Man but then checked out the history. All I could say was oops. - Aksi_great (talk) 09:28, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please undo your revert

The change I made to Big Daddy's BBQ Sauce was legitimate: the company is not listed on Nasdaq; it is listed on the Pink Sheets. If you have any questions, please let me know. 68.173.32.171 14:41, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please undo your revert #2

The change to Ingersoll Rand was correct; it is a Company of Bermuda (see Tyco International and Weatherford International for the consistently identical treatment). Thanks!

[edit] Tock redirect

Hi—I'm planning on creating an article about a board game called Tock. Would you mind if I cancel the redirection of Tock to the Pure Dead series and provide disambiguation at the newly created page? --dragfyre 02:41, 25 November 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Phil Hine

Please do not vandalise valid edits of mine for Phil Hine. I have formatted the article, given references and expanded on fact of biography. I noticed that you removed your comments from my talk page. I removed the delition nomination as it was decided as a 'Keep'. What is the problem? FK0071a 15:55, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Latin translation

Hi. On Radiant's userpage you left some Latin which read "Complexo sulum quoniam is vires exsisto vestri permaneo". What does this mean??? Thanks! DellusMaximus 10:14, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2006_December_5#E-Sword

Because you participated in the AfD, I thought I should inform you of the deletion review. --Karnesky 17:27, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Ooops - thanks for putting that template in :D Martinp23 20:41, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
