Re:Moonlight Serenade

I'm not convinced its a sockpuppet and they aren't even really editing. I'm watching the page and will take action as I feel justified. Cheers. Sasquatch t|c 23:13, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

VandalProof 1.2 Now Available

After a lenghty, but much-needed Wikibreak, I'm happy to announce that version 1.2 of VandalProof is now available for download! Beyond fixing some of the most obnoxious bugs, like the persistent crash on start-up that many have experienced, version 1.2 also offers a wide variety of new features, including a stub-sorter, a global user whitelist and blacklist, navigational controls, and greater customization. You can find a full list of the new features

Editing tags

please reply at: Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)#Editing_tags

Hi, not to be rude to the person who originally designed them, but I think the tags over the editing box are really quite ugly. Also not very discriptive, when they should be to screamingly obvious to highlight how helpful they really are. After activly editing for over 6 months now, I have only just taken it apon myself to check out what they all actually do. Some of them are agreeably useless (to me), but things like signing and redirect are just amazing! The amount of times I have searched for a redirect page just to copy and paste the template to create various new redirect pages is rediculas, and could have been helped only if the tags were sufficiently idiot-proof, and designed to fit in with this age of pretty shiny buttons (rather than fit in with the age of windows 95). I think age they are on every edit page, and are visable to every editor, effort should be made to make them as perfect as possible. Just like the amount of time that clearly went on our wonderful Main Page --mastodon 23:24, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please be a bit more specific? Which symbols could be more descriptive and how? The signature one is a picture of a signature, which I think is intuitive, although it could perhaps be placed furthest to the right as it is the last thing used when editing. '#R' is esoteric until you have created a redirect, and it then becomes recognisable; it could resemble [1] but readers don't encounter that symbol often either. As for the general design, it reminds me of Netscape 6/7 chrome skin, and not Windows 95. The buttons stand out from the background of the monobook skin, which makes them more functional than aesthetic. --Cedderstk 09:31, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I was thinking perhaps having simply a discriptive word on each button with an "Insert..." written above their containing line. As for how they stand out against the skin, I hadn't thought of that, you make a good point. Although, I'm sure there are other ways of increasing their contrast, such as is present in Windows XP, when your attention is needed on a button, a complimentary colour is used (in the blue luna interface, this corrisponds to orange). Perhaps a shiny dark button with a discriptive word would be appropriate? mastodon 12:11, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

speedying

G'day Ceeders,

thanks for your note. I'll answer the band one first, since that one's dead easy:

WP:MUSIC
has no relevance whatsoever to whether or not an article can be speedied. We're concerned about whether the article asserts notability, with "notability" interpreted very broadly indeed; saying "they released an album" counts in this case.

As for

Fido.net is rather famous, while I've never heard of the other company. Also, if it helps, User:Jmorby is quite different from the Jon Morby article. By the by, have you tried talking to Mr Morby about the article? fuddlemark (befuddle me!) 13:16, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply

Morning .. no-one has approached

Opus-CBCS - an article originally written by Wynn Wagner III and reproduced with his permission (originally granted in 1998 and assumed going forwards). The copyvio seems to actually relate to a link which is a mirror of the original article ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmorby (talkcontribs

just a note that the deletion did happen in due course, and for clarity, there is a huge difference between

Re: A few tips

Thanks for your tips on my talkpage, appreciate it! I normally do a search on articles before marking as db-bio anyhow, might have missed it on that one though! Cheers again! Poeloq 21:56, 6 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Dr Robert Buckman.jpg)

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media
).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:02, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Depression_(physiology)

Another editor has added the {{

prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? raven1977 (talk) 04:37, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply
]

Note the main question here is whether ambiguous links to depression referring this definition can or should (a) be left ambiguous; (b) be directed to a particular definition on wiktionary (preferred option if technically possible); (c) be removed; or (d) go to a landing page at least for the time being. I've removed the prod, pending further discussion. --Cedderstk 09:57, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Jungle book

I will help you here as much as necessary, at least about the Kipling part of things--I urge you to actually find some references, as mentioned on the List talk page, since they will exist, and build up the individual articles. Consider some preemptive merging. I'm thinking of Messua's husband into Messua, When I work on video and such, I';m working on trying to keep some articles on things where a/I have no interest in the work itself and b/I am not really familiar with how to find what references there are in the specialised sources which exist. Quite the opposite here in both respects. However, it will be very difficult for me to add much in the next few days, so see what you can do till then.DGG (talk) 16:26, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks...

...for your help with the article Common People. Should the "Shatner Version"(Folds version, really) be split off into another article? What if it gets much bigger?

Parsing signatures on talk pages

"I don't see why the current '==' h2 heading shouldn't suffice. Wouldn't it also be possible for the software to parse existing signatures and indentation?"

hi 👋 I was re-reading the discussion around the Talk Page Consultation when I came across the comment you made (quoted above). It stuck me that you might be curious to know, at this moment, we're working on the very thing you alluded to. That work is happening on Phabricator, in this ticket: T232780.
