User talk:Jibbles/Archive 1

Hi, when you recently reverted some vandalism to Margin of error you included the vandal's text in your edit summary. This makes it a lot more prominent and may encourage the vandal. You might like to use a summary along these lines in the future:

Reverted edits by [[Special:Contributions/00.00.00.00|00.00.00.00]] ([[User_Talk:00.00.00.00|talk]]) to last version by Username

I copied the section from the Omnipedia, which as it seems, has open content but has copied sections of SQ.net. What's the big idea? Omnipedia can copy, while Wikipedia cannot? Pictureuploader 08:48, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I restored the section and I cleaned up and wikified it significantly. Check it out to improve it Pictureuploader 08:55, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You could just delete the ones that violated Frans' copyright. Others are just well known facts so alterations would move them away from Frans' copyvio. Anyway, thy will be done. Pictureuploader 09:11, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's ok pal, thanks. Pictureuploader 10:29, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

hey, no harm done! :-) You tagged it one minute after it was created. Give the newbies a chance; many build their first article with tiny micro edits. (Don't know why they don't use "preview"...) This one looked like something more was to come, which is why I refrained from speedying it right away. (I had noticed it when it was created. So I kept it opened and reloaded after some minutes and discovered that indeed this newbie had added a little more.) Don't worry, it's a judgement call, and by only tagging it as {{

This warning is from a 5 day old, already reverted edit that has already been discussed with another user. Jibbles | Talk 09:23, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

All right, sorry about that. It wasn't a "warning" per se, just a friendly reminder. Also:

When using template tags on talk pages, don't forget to

substitute with text

by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template.

You'll notice a bot had to clean up after you.

--Pcj 20:18, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, yes, sorry about being lazy about not stub-typing... i've added a link to my user page to decrease my chance of being lazy next time. :)

I'm not new, i've been here for almost a year, that article have been in the Castillian wikipedia for some months, it was even smaller, without the discography. What's this all about? Gaudio 15:33, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry, you did the right thing, i've written articles in several wikipedias and in all of them, people input their own articles about their own lives or things like that :) Gaudio 16:08, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I generally check to see which stub to use. When I don't know which type to use I feel it is still beneficial to stick a {{stub}} tag on the article; people who know stub templates better than I will catch it. I've had people change my stub types when I'm not specific enough anyways, so I don't sweat it too much. BigNate37_T·C 17:29, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Barcode Battler.jpg

Hello, you added the Barcode Battler file for the wiki page on Barcode Battler.

I do research on the Barcode Battler and help out at www.barcodebattler.co.uk

I don't recognise the box cover (the blue circle on the bottom right I have never seen before - it is red for the "ENGLISH EDITION"), and was wondering if you have this version of the game, and if so, if you could send me a higher rez version (just of this blue ellipsis would be fine).

Also, could I ask how you know that it was released in March 1991? I can't get a definite date anywhere except here.

Thanks for your time
