[edit] Vandalism

If you feel I left a warning in error, or disagree with my statements, please let me know, I some times make mistakes too. GWatson 01:10, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Trish Stratus Picture

Actually, I was not "warned" for changing the picture. The person who thinks they are in charge of the page told me not to change it because it was "too old", so i put up the most recent one that exists and that got deleted too. does that make sense to you. It's actually subjective whether an image is worthwhile, and it is not up to a single person to warn others for changing images. I was 100% within my rights to change that image, I was trying to improve the page. The new pic is only a few weeks old, by far the most recent, (the other pic is a few months old) so please don't revert it becasue it will go back to an old picture. Geez I didnt realise it was a crime to add a picture to improve an article.Murph murph 01:58, 3 June 2006 (UTC) (Don't take this personally by the way I know i may sound aggressive, and you don't know the full story so it's not your fault at all)

I have left a reply at Murph murph Talk Page -- GWatsonTALK 02:03, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your reply. Ok, that's true I did delete messages, but that's beacuse I thought you could delete them once you had read them. As you can see when I realised you weren't supposed to I tried to put the comments back on my page. It won't happen again. But does this mean you won't change the image again?

I have left this reply on your talk page:
I have taken away my case against you as I believe you truely want to contribute to wikipedia in a positive manner. I will look into the photograph more closely to see which one is correct, if a problem like this happens again, go the article discussion page and post your complaint there, revert it back with a note in the Edit Summary telling people to read the discussion page. If it is changed again, follow the procedures on resolving disputes. I hope this helps. GWatsonTALK 19:35, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Ok thanks for all your help Murph murph 20:08, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Help

I was wondering how to make a specialized signature like Wes' above. GWatson 12:48, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Sign_your_posts_on_talk_pages#Customizing_your_signature should contain all information you need to create your signature. --Bertolotti 12:53, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your VandalProof Application

Dear GWatson,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.2 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that not enough mainspace edit. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.

[edit] Image:WpHalo.jpg

Hello, I've listed Image:WpHalo.jpg at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a derivative of the Halo logo and, therefore, not really public domain. I have no artistic skills; otherwise, I'd try to cook up a logo myself. However, we cannot use anything that would infringe on copyright or trademarks. — TKD::Talk 06:05, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, looks good. — TKD::Talk 11:23, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article for deletion

Magnetic Accelerator Cannon is being proposed for deletion. I do not feel it should be deleted, but merged into the future Technology of Halo article, because it is unsourced and written in an in-universe tone. Please lend your support. --DevastatorIIC 00:18, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikiproject North Carolina

In an effort to expand this project, I've requested a bot tag most of the articles under the Category:North Carolina. If you could, please look over this list User:Betacommand/North Carolina and remove any that should not get tagged with the Wikiproject North Carolina Template. Thanks Morphh 01:18, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Suggested addition

Perhaps a section for Education or Higher Education (which could include today's featured article on Duke) could be added to the section, "Wikipedia articles on North Carolina."

Well done, all.
