[edit] Calling programmers
We need coders for the WikiProject Disambigation fixer. We need to make a program to make faster and easier the fixing of links. We will be happy if you could check the project. You can Help! --Neo139 09:09, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Lacrosse stub and wikiproject
What I was implying was that as 60 is the notional threshold for creation of a stub type in general, while it's 30 when it's the one-and-only stub type associated with a wikiproject, and your total seems to be somewhere in between, then it would be more clear-cut if there was one. But more seriously, given that several editors have expressed an interest, there's every possibility of it being a going concern, and of it being useful for the topic: it would appear to only require someone to be bold and actually set it up. You might try contacting the other editors listed and seeing if they're willing to start setting up the page, or else enquire at the "parent" or any related wikiproject for help. Or if the worst comes to the worst, I'd be willing to help out with the procedural and page setup stuff (not that I know anything much about lacrosses... there's a stick and a ball involved, right?).

I just noticed you deleted the info on the WikiProject for lax from about 5 pages on my watchlist (these are the same pages you just recently added to info to)... just curious why you took them away? Stoneice02 20:42, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Oh dear!
Please be more careful with your disambig link repair! You've been replacing "German" with "Germany" will-nilly when in some cases this needs to be disambiged to "Germans". -- PageantUpdater • talk | contribs | esperanza 02:27, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Hi :) An example of the error is here. I like the idea of a person being half a country :P -- PageantUpdater • talk | contribs | esperanza 02:45, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Deleting pages
I created WikiProject:Lacrosse, and was in the process of editing the page to add real content, when you deleted the page. I have since recreated it, but I thought I'd let you know, in case you see that a page you deleted came back to life. --MrBoo (talk, contribs) 00:40, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
- I did not delete it: I moved it and amended your user page to match. It was also visible in "my contributions". OK so I should have left a note on your talk page as well. -- RHaworth 00:46, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] a favour to ask
Hey there, thanks for setting up the Lacrosse project. It is a great idea. Since you are popping up a lot in my edit history, I have a small favour to ask. When you add {{Lacrosse}} to a talk page, please put in an edit summary (I usually just paste the template in when I am in a similar situation) and flag the edit as minor. It would be easier to monitor. Cheers. -- JamesTeterenko 19:00, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, sorry about that - I should have been doing that all along. Question for you - what's the difference between adding {{Lacrosse}} and {{tl|Lacrosse}}? I've just been using the former. --MrBoo (talk, contribs) 19:31, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
- No prob. Putting the former is what should be on the talk page, so you are doing it correctly. Using "tl" is just a way to quickly link to a template in discussions without having to type "<nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:Lacrosse|Lacrosse]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki>". It is much easier to just type "{{tl|Lacrosse}}".-- JamesTeterenko 22:09, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Minor edits
Hi. I recently came across this edit which was marked as "minor". Taking a look at your contributions, you seem to mark a lot of them as minor, even when they contain material changes to the article, like this one, so I thought I'd point you at Help:Minor_edit. Basically, an edit is not "minor" just because it doesn't affect very much text. When in doubt, don't check the "minor edit" box. Anyway, nice work on the Lacrosse articles! --P3d0 11:41, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the link. I never really looked into what a "minor" edit was, I figured it was just any edit that affected very little of the article. I'll keep that in mind in the future. Thanks again! --MrBoo (talk, contribs) 13:22, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Old NLL logos
Purely out of curiosity, but where did you find all of those logos of the defunct NLL teams?? --Yarnalgo 03:32, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
- logoserver.com has almost all of them. Their Ontario Raiders one is messed up, but I did a google search and found it somewhere else (don't remember where). The only one I couldn't find anywhere is the Washington Wave. --MrBoo (talk, contribs) 11:26, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Midnight Sunshine
Keyboard can mean both "electronic keyboard" and ordinary keyboard instruments. How do you know that it's the "electronic keyboard" and not an ordinary keyboard that is performed on the album "Midnight Sunshine"? Do you have it? I don't have this album or any song of it, so I can't tell if you are right or wrong. I rode the information from this page: [[1]]. I know it's recorded in the USA so you can be right. But many early (1970s, 1980s) Kikki Danielsson records and songs recorded in Sweden are recorded with ordinary piano. Johan1982) 19:39, 7 October 2006 (CET)

[edit] Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 02:53, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:NLL
Fair use images that are allowed on Wikipedia have particular articles they can be used in. Logos for teams generally can only be used in the articles on those teams, and logos of sporting leagues can only be used in the articles on those leagues. Templates which appear on other pages cannot contain such images. └ OzLawyer / talk ┐ 22:49, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] New York Titans
Yeah I know sorry about that—I changed it on the Titans' article then reverted it but forgot to revert the NLL article. It's just I know someone who is part of the ownership group and I think they bought the Saints' franchise and that it is the same franchise but I don't know for sure so it is probably best to leave it as it is. --Yarnalgo 03:05, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- PS On that article do you see "William E. Ford"? That is the guy I know. --Yarnalgo 03:15, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
