Adoption

You have graduated, congratulations! JetLover (talk) (Report a mistake) 00:04, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!-- Barkjo 00:04, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Barkjon,

I have a recovered my son from Autism. So that alone is a controversial statement. I would like to get information about Autism to be more up to date on Wikipedia and especially some treatments that are listed as options updated. The articles are very out of date especially as a client having experiences them. So I have a lot of POV and personal experience but have meet with very little success converting this information to fact and into articles.

So I need coaching on how to get fact and remove some of the fiction from Wiki around Autism and Autism treatment.

Would you consider helping me? Ezrah 001 (talk) 21:28, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know. Are you sure you got the image name right? JetLover (talk) (Report a mistake) 00:07, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but you can't add the Club Penguin image to your userpage because it is copyrighted. What other images would you like to use? I will try to do it for you. JetLover (talk) (Report a mistake) 00:16, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Need some help with my Wiki

Hello,

I'm totally lost! I have to find out how to create a wiki in a way that only certain users can access and/or edit an article. I have been trying to figure this out for over 3 weeks. I really would appreciate your help. Can you help me please?

Thank you.

Adopter

An adoptee can have more than 1 adopter you know. Even though, the adoption was unofficial.--

Let's let Taj decide how many adopters he wants. I'm not trying to cause a big discussion by the way.--

/me is really really thinking that some folks don't "get it" on the adoption thing, so I'm going to spell it out clearly. Stop. Now. The community would far rather that you work on articles. There are grave concerns about people adopting who clearly aren't experienced enough. We love your enthusiasm, but want it to be directed at articles. For the love of God, we just went through a 5 day discussion about deleting adoption pages. - Philippe 01:57, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm well aware of the conversation, I read it. He didn't "try to abandon you", he wanted someone else. It's not an affront to you, but he requested someone else. Let him go. You have about 200 edits in mainspace. I'm asking you to let someone else adopt him. Please respect what this community has gone through with respect to the discussion we just had. No, it wasn't directly about you, but it was about wanting experienced people to adopt. You adoptee has said he wants someone else. Respect that. - Philippe 02:03, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Need some help with my Wiki

Hello,

It is a MediaWiki. By the way, I love your motto!!!!!!

Thank you. Rantrom (talk) 02:09, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Whoa

I just read your comment at your adoptees page. You said: "A good way to undo vandalism (and get more edits fast) is: Go to the recent changes and look for an IP address (a username all made from numbers-that person has not made an official account). Click on that page. Click on history. There should be an IP address (the one you saw in the recent changes). Click "compare selected versions". And when it shows up, there should be vandalism in the screen. Click undo and change what the vandalism is to what it used to be."

It is absolutely unacceptable to insinuate that there "should be vandalism" on an IPs contributions.

It is further unacceptable to scold someone for "mutanizing" against you.

My next step will be to file a

WP:RFC if this continues. I strongly encourage you to consider whether you're ready to adopt: based on that advice, I'm afraid you're not. I don't intend to be harsh, but we can not have you giving bad advice to adoptees. For the record, in the last study done, IPs were a significant source of exceptional edits to the Wikipedia. - Philippe 02:18, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply
]

Ditto. Nothing444 13:26, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Double Ditto. IP many IP adresses are good contributers. Please respect that.--

Triple ditto. Lol.-- Barkjo 02:23, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Response

I would be honored to be your adoptee. I need to know how to create a page that only certain people can access or edit. Really, I need help on understanding the basics of this whole Wiki thing... Again I really appreciate it.

Thank you for your patience ahead of time. Rantrom (talk) 02:35, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Hi Barkjon, thank you for inviting my to be your adoptee. Whats the next step for my and how does it work practically? My main problem is my bad english. By your help I would be able to improve some technical related wiki topics possibly.--Oelwiki (talk) 10:23, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My preference would be that you not teach them to use tools, but teach them to watch recent changes and revert manually, at first. Then, eventually, you can teach them to use the anti-vandal tools. It's important to walk before you run, I think. - Philippe 02:18, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If you haven't already, it might make sense to go back to your adoption records from when you were adopted and start by sort of recreating those lessons. Just an idea for you. I'll be out of town tomorrow and Tuesday, by the way, but will be happy to give you feedback when I'm back in town. - Philippe 02:22, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lady Aleena's RfA

Barkjon...Thank you for supporting my nomination for adminship. Through it I have become aware of a great many people who can help me in my future editing endeavors. Even though I was not promoted, your support shows that I still have something to contribute to Wikipedia, even if it is minor edits to fix spelling and grammar to working in WikiProjects to help others make great articles. If you wish to further discuss the nomination, please use its talk page. Stop by my talk page anytime, even if it is just to say hello. Have a wonderful day! - LA @ 04:44, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you from Horologium

Thank you for participating in my RfA, which passed unanimously with the support of 100 editors. Your kindness is very much appreciated. I look forward to using the tools you have granted me to aid the project. I would like to give special thanks to Wizardman, Black Falcon and jc37 for nominating me. — Horologium

My RfAHi Barkjon; I wanted to say thank you for supporting my request for adminship, which passed with 100 supports, 0 opposes and 1 neutral. I wanted to get round everybody individually, even though it's considered by some to be spam (which... I suppose it is! but anyway. :)). It means a lot to me that the community has placed its trust in my ability to use the extra buttons, and I only hope I can live up to its expectations. If you need anything, or notice something that bothers you, don't hesitate to let me know. Thanks again, PeterSymonds | talk 22:37, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
