[edit] #redirect

How do I redirect?

  1. redirect:rederect?
Almost. Like this: #redirect [[pagename]]. It only works if it's the only thing on the page. Chick Bowen 16:07, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
By the way, you might want to think about creating a login here. You don't have to, but it makes it easier to interact with other editors. To do that, go to Special:Login and type in the name and password you want. You can leave a message at my talk page (User talk:Chick Bowen) if you do and I'll welcome you officially.

[edit] Flash Virus== Username

I made a new username called "Flash virus" which is my Screename. Then I tried to edit things and the mods blocked the name. Is this an offensive name?

[edit] Please answer--- very importabnt

I made a screename just like you said and now I got banned for it. I don't see it worth it to make a name when a mod will ban me for nothing. I don't see how Flash Virus is offensive in anyway.

Sorry, I just got back from lunch. I'll look into it. Chick Bowen 18:53, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
Do you know the name of the admin who blocked you? Chick Bowen 18:57, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Doc glasgow is the mod that blocked me

Please tell him that I didn't have an inappropiate name. I want to edit on wikipedia. I don't mean to cause trouble.

I left him a message. I'm not an admin, so I can't unblock you, but in case he's determined you might want to think about another username--FlashV or something, perhaps. By the way, you can sign your comments on talk pages with four tildes, like this: ~~~~. For now that'll just show your IP, but once you get a username it will show that and the time.

Flash_Virus (talkcontribsblock log) has been unblocked. --khaosworks (talkcontribs) 08:44, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

Sorry about the block. We've has a number of users by name of 'Love Virus' cause all sorts of problems. And they keep registering usernames that are a variant on that theme. I was being overcautious when I saw your user name registered. --Doc (?) 13:33, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

Nacon, I was removing a discussion I made on wikipedia's Opie and Anthony page. There was no reason for it anymore (since someone else made a similiar one).
