Anchor baby

No problem. Don't thank me for the article though, all I did was revise the first paragraph and cut and paste. Nice username by the way! Avraham 00:39, 7 April 2006 (UTC) PS Beware! Anchor babies are from the moon. their technologies are advanced far beyond our own. Hopefully they won't hurt us though, the think out third dimension is cute, though they have five...THOUSAND.[reply]

Aviation

You know, I bet there are tons of aviation articles that need editing or merging. If you know a lot aobut it, you should really poke around. Outside of mainsteam sutff like history and niche stuff like punk bands or military ranks, Wikipedia's got a lot of weak stuff. Check the requested article and requested merger lists.

No articles to suggest but I'll keep you in mind as knowledgable in the area! Avraham 00:52, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Scissors

I made the pic larger because I thought it explained the maneuver quite well. Daleh 08:47, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Immigration

Great, can you also check out:

2006 U.S. immigrant rights protests and sort out which should be deleted/merged/kept seperate or whatever. I don't keep up on these issues. Thanks! Avraham 00:50, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply

Blanking

Why'd you blank

Talk:Freewebs? Andre (talk) 01:53, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply

Maybe so, but that's not the proper way to go about a new revision. Rather than blanking talk pages, we archive them when the page gets too large. Andre (talk) 20:34, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Got one for you

Looks sweet, duede. Now I know where to send any aviation mergers I come across! By the way, you have way too many userboxes! I wasted ten minutes reading them all, though ATHF is number one in the hood, G. Avraham 01:25, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

No problem about taking the tools section. If everyone copied it, there wouldn't be anything left iin those categorries! I think I need more userboxes (not as many as you though...) and I definitely think your new title is much more fitting. By the way, some people put userboxes along their test and other userbox-type-things at the bottom of their pages (so you can have rows with more than one). Well, I ought to go to bed. Avraham 05:22, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, your UserPage looks pretty slick. I guess I need to spend some time on mine at some point... I never knew about beeping eaaster eggs intol O looked on your userpage and saw the link to it, so despite your best efforts your page is actually educational! Also, sweet job on merging the ohio protest into 2006 immigrants' rights protest. Have a great passover! Avraham 14:05, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Haha very fun the "new messages" thing with the practical joke attached is a really good one! Great job! Like your page!! (BartonBelle 08:49, 8 June 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism

You just reported a vandal there. Unfortunately, you wrote inside the commented out section (commented out with <!-- bla bla -->). Also, the vandal you reported had only vandalized once, and had not even be warned for that. Please warn vandals before reporting them, and post incidents after the end of the comment instead of editing the template. Thank you, Kusma (討論) 23:36, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

I received your message on my talk page, and well, I do like classic rock quite a bit. I hate what modern people call "rock," which it is not, it is only pop, bands such as Green Day, and My Chemical Romance, I dislike very strongly. And, hey, to return the favor! Эйрон Кинни (t) 00:19, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have the same luck like you. I am a unique one among Wikipedians, but I have learned to bypass it in favor of my personal interests...knowledge. Эйрон Кинни (t) 00:23, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I had never heard of Aaron "McKinney." But that's pretty interesting. Once I picked up Nicolae but I never finished the first two chapters, I guess I didn't get far enough into it to get "hooked." Эйрон Кинни (t) 00:48, 20 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use images on user page

Hi, I'm not gonna be too long. I just want to warn you that you are using many fair use images on your user pages. Copyrighted images should not be used on any other pages than the articles themselves, it means that no such images should be on talk pages, user pages, help pages, etc. This is the policy for fair use images on the english wikipedia, check

here, rule 9. I don't really need you to remove them right away from your user page, I just wanted to be certain that you knew about this.--DarkEvil 23:24, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply

Vandalism warnings

I'm sorry. My understanding, from a question I asked on the help desk a while ago, was that if the next vandalism was not on the same day as the last warning, another test4 was appropriate before going to AIV. It seems that there isn't a real consensus about how to handle the escalation of test messages if the vandalism is spread over many days, which led to our conflict. I'm a vigilant RC patroller and am pretty familiar with how test messages and AIV work, though. -RaCha'ar 00:59, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It does seem fairly obvious that it is User:Bugman94, I suggest you avoid provoking him, just leave him alone, if he behaves there is no problem with him being here. --pgk(talk) 22:19, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ok heres the deal I am going to try to get this figured out with
mediation ok thanks Cookie 01:17, 3 June 2006 (UTC) Questions? click here
Mediation is not compulsory if you don't think it will acheive anything, then you aren't penalised in any way for not taking part. To my mind this seems (a) a silly reason for mediation (b) too early. I reinforce my original request that you steer clear of User:Mr. Cookie, if he doesn't come looking for you there is no reason for you to go looking for him --pgk(talk) 08:18, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I understand how you first came across him and I'm not trying to put you in the wrong with regards what has happened so far, but I am trying to suggest that as someone whom I assume is a little more mature than him that maybe you should take the lead in trying to move on from what has happened in the past. --pgk(talk) 21:54, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Protect

I suggest we protect the article

unsigned comment was added by Electrified mocha chinchilla (talkcontribs) . 22:23, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply
]

I'm with ya. Sadly, I don't think it's bad enough for the admins to consider it. (You can kind of gauge the process at
WP:RFPP
.) Apparently, it takes upwards of ten vandalizations per day (or one specific IP user causing trouble) to get an article sprotected. It's been sprotected a few times so far, but always pulled within a few days. I wish there were a process to make sprotection permanent - a petition or some such - cause there have been unbelievably few IP address users who've made useful contributions to the article. (And, more often than not, most of the non-IP users have been recent sign-ups who apparently signed up just to vandalize the article.)
Many thanks for the Barnstar!! :) --

Your signature

Hello there, I was wondering if you would please modify your signature to conform to the guidelines laid out at

Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages. The general guidelines are that signatures shouldn't contain images, they shouldn't contain unnecessary internal links or any external links, and they shouldn't be unnecessarily long in Wiki source. The reasoning for this final bit is that overly long signatures tend to overwhelm the actual comments in edit mode, making it hard to track down and respond to specific comments. You can fix your signature by removing any images and external links, any unnecessary links (like links to Wikipedian organizations, articles, or subpages in userspace), and removing excessive color, font, and formatting code. Thank you. --Cyde↔Weys 19:59, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply

My signature contains no images, and I find all internal links in it are completely necessary and relevant; one has absolutely no problem "tracking down and responding to specific comments".

A short Esperanzial update

As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on

the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened
. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

August Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature:
To-Do List
The
Esperanza To-Do List
is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the
proposals page
has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.

    section of the proposals page has been created.
  3. General Esperanzial Actions
    has been created.
  4. Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
  5. Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
  6. There is a page for discussing the
    front page redesign

Furthermore, I'm very concerned about your edits. You have plenty of good ones, but you also have ones like this (blatant vandalism) and, much worse, like this, where you blatantly, and, I can only imagine, deliberately, changed facts in an article. Purposefully making Wikipedia less accurate is completely unacceptable. If you do anything like this again, you will be permanently blocked from editing.--

September Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature:
Barnstar Brigade
Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors!
What's New?
September elections are upon us! Anyone wishing to be a part of the Advisory Council may list themselves as a candidate from 18 September until 24 September, with the voting taking place from 25 September to 30 September. Those who wish to help with the election staff should also list themselves!

WikiProject South Park

I have thought of creating a WikiProject for South Park since it is now near its' 10th anniversary and has more articles than ever. I feel we could all do the following things through this project:

  • Cleanup any short/poorly written/unformatted articles
  • Merge/lengthen the many character articles
  • Improve the South Park main page

I have seen your South Park fan template and wondered if you were interested in joining. If so reply to my talk page and I'll get back to you as quick as I can. Thanks, Mr. Garrison

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.

  • 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!

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it, but use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from

this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license

Hey, I noticed you welcoming a few folks. That's great! Since we want to keep the same welcome message that they got, it's better if you use {{subst:welcome}}. Thanks! Xiong Chiamiov :: contact :: 02:52, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, if you see a user with a blatantly inappropriate username (e.g. user:Twatfuck) may I suggest that you report them at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism with the reason "username policy violation", rather than welcoming them, as you did here: [1].

Your user page appears at CAT:SHORTFIX because of the syntax you use for {{shortcut}} which is currently in the process of being updated. This is not serious but it would be appreciated if you could edit you page so that:

{{Shortcut|[[WP:FOOBAR]]}} --> <nowiki>{{Shortcut|WP:FOOBAR}}

Or, in other words, just get rid of the double brackets. You can find out more information at CAT:SHORTFIX.

Replaceable fair use File:Easteregghunt.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Easteregghunt.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to
    di-replaceable fair use disputed
    }}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. 11:40, 29 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter
    here
    .

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is

WP:MINOR
). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of

  4. Real-Time Recent Changes App for Android
  5. Shortcut for patrollers to last changes list

Further, there are more than 20 proposals related to Watchlists in general that you may be interested in reviewing. (and over 260 proposals in all, across many aspects of wikis)

Thank you for your consideration. Please note that voting for proposals continues through December 12, 2016.
