[edit] Welcome

Hello, Anyaanomaly, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} and your question on your user talk page, and someone will show up shortly to answer. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

[edit] Diagonal Thinking Corner

I have added a space for diagonal thought at the very bottom of my user page on Wiki. The numbering convention is in strict accordance with my personal policy of making you smile while attempting to provoke further research and thought when exploring the vast knowledge-base that is Wikipedia. *Negative numbers and fractions are not to be excluded.

[edit] My new user image featuring my lovely CRASS poster is NO LONGER listed for deletion!

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Anya2.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, a non-profit website, this is in fact not the case. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because content on Wikipedia needs to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

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.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. feydey 16:02, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Ok - AnyA, I fixed this as requested[1] and changed the license to a compatible one {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} . All is well again ;) - Alison 04:15, 23 February 2007 (UTC) (just back from the Mojave Desert)
    • Thank you so much Allie - I appreciate the assist greatly! AnyA 10:42, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Southern Records emailed me back and said it was fine to use on Wiki only, the only place i intended. 
I love my CRASS records even more now! Well forked but not dead! AnyA 14:41, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Transgender Activism

Thanks Allie :) I appreciate it! AnyA 21:24, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

No problem :) Can I recommend you check out Wikipedia:WikiProject_LGBT_studies and maybe add yourself to the members list. I'm going to put up a request there for Transgender activism, too - Alison 21:28, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
PS - I owe you an email :) In work and busy now, though! - Alison 21:28, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome!

Hi, Anyaanomaly, welcome to WikiProject LGBT Studies!

We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying, categorizing, and improving articles of interest to the LGBT community. Some points that may be helpful:

  • Our main aim is to help improve LGBT-related articles, so if someone asks for help with an article, please try your hardest to help them if you are able.
  • Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
  • The project has several ongoing and developing activities, such as article quality assessment, and a project-wide article collaboration, both of which you are welcome to take part in. We also have a unique program to improve our lower quality articles, Jumpaclass, so please consider signing up there.
  • If you have another language besides English, please consider adding yourself to our translation section, to help us improve our foreign LGBT topics.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the talk page, and we will be happy to help you.

And once again - Welcome!

Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 21:42, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Dev ~ I look forward to helping wherever i can :)

[edit] An appreciated Wiki-peer welcome :)

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! - Alison 21:22, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] LGBT WikiProject Newsletter

The LGBT studies WikiProject Newsletter!
Issue III - February 1, 2007

Announcement: If someone requests help or feedback on an article, please try your hardest to help them out if you are able. Thank you.

Project News
  • The LGBT Portal has once again been revamped and a work rota started. Efforts towards Featured Portal status are slowly coming together.
  • The assessment system has been a great success, we have tagged over 4000 articles! Please tag any LGBT related articles you come across by adding {{LGBTProject | class=}} to the talkpage. Please see the Assessment Department for how to assess an article according to the grading system.
  • The Translation department has changed its focus, to LGBT articles about non-English topics and people on which there may be more information on the relevant foreign Wikipedia. Please add your name if you are fluent in any language other than English.
  • Jumpaclass is picking up slowly, with nine people having entered. With over 2000 stubs we need to improve our article quality. Please sign up and get it going! Challenge another user to see how far you can jump a stub!
  • There is an ongoing discussion about the current LGBT categorisation system here, here, and a little bit here. A special page has now been set up here to deal with this.
  • A Watchlist has been set up to monitor controversial and/or highly vandalised articles. It can also be used for article disputes, just add a note explaining the nature of the dispute.
  • With the influx of so many active members, there is now enough support for a LGBT studies peer review, which may be found here. It's in the beta phase at the moment, so bear with us if we make any mistakes. Feel free to peer review any articles you have been working on.
  • It was agreed this month to start reducing the uses of the Notice board, as many members felt that it was not effective. An open tasks template has been created, bringing together important announcements, FAC/FARs, Peer reviews, XfDs, the COTM, and requested articles. You may desire to watchlist it. A Deletion sorting subpage is also now working to bring together XfDs - this should be bot-driven, but we have not currently tagged enough articles to make this fully automated, so please update the list with any LGBT-related XfDs you come across.

[edit] Hi there

Hi AnyA - just stopping by to say hello and keep up the good work. I like the new userbox, too! And the pics :) - Alison 20:13, 5 March 2007 (UTC)


I had fun working on it, and i learned more about Wiki editing... I am glad you like the new page!

I think it about covers who i am and what brings me to the Wiki community; now i can work on articles and reference them here. It's a therapy of sorts for me, which is needed :) AnyA 02:42, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hello ^_^


Hey! I was just wandering around, and dropped in to leave a note. Have a wonderful day!

Mine is a really enthusiastic smile - I actually make that face when I smile really big (LOL I know I'm weird). I love your picture, by the way. I was gonna put one of mine up, but I'm not sure if I want to. Apples are gods gift to mankind. I promote and adore them. Have a wonderful day! Saber girl08 15:23, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Saber, #1.) We are all weird somehow, so if you are, don't feel bad! #2.) My advice is stay away from posting / sharing pics online... #3.) Your efforts here at Wikipedia rock :) Stay safe & Keep up the good work! AnyA 18:10, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

I love your page...something I forgot to mention the first time I came. Anways...that's all. Have a wonderful day! ^_^

[edit] New Userboxes & Pictures !

I have added pictures of my AMD Barton Core workstation and my guinea pig Tulip (my version of children) to Wikicommons...


A few new userboxes have been created as well!

(*I hope you were sitting down for this PSA!)
AnyA 06:02, 11 March 2007 (UTC)


  • Hi AnyA - I tidied up all your userboxes for you and put them into a separate page, so you can easily edit them without having to edit your main page. You can see them at User:Anyaanomaly/Userboxes and can replace them on your mainpage with a simple {{/userboxes}} command. Enjoy!! :) - Alison 04:23, 18 March 2007 (UTC)


Alison, you ROCK! ~8-) Thanks so much, i appreciate it lots! I am going to clean up the page right now i am so excited! (Geekin' out on a Saturday night, ooh yeah ;) I just logged in to add a link to my first computer as well, with a link to my current pc image i uploaded.. Thanks for such a nice surprise! AnyA 05:42, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

  • No problem at all! :) Glad you like. I made a mistake with the template transclude, though - be sure it has the '/' in the name. BTW - your Guinea Pig is absolutely lovely. Happy editing! - Alison 05:57, 18 March 2007 (UTC) (also geeking out)

I decided to actually move the focus to that page, as i don't like scrolling web pages :) Thanks again for that, that rocks! Now they all look so nice and tidy on their own page! I like it!

AnyA 06:26, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Looking better and better! And your editing skills are improving immensely (I can see it!) :) If you want the userboxes on your mainpage but hate scrollbars, you can always put them in a collapsible box like mine are - Alison 06:30, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Once i have more sleep under my belt and more coffee, i will attempt that ;) I just added a link to my pc and my 1st computer on my Additional Info section, you should check it out (lol) I had the voice synth addon, and the 1 MB expansion system for the TI99/4A as well. I was superfly @ 8 years old! AnyA 06:41, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hi!

Hey! Guess what? I now have 720 edits! (this makes 721). I was adopted by Zazzer, and he only has 600 something. I'm so excited! I might get to graduate from the adoption program now.
Sorry I told you this, but I was pretty excited when I checked my numbers.
Have a wonderful day!
Saber girl08 03:31, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

  • You Go Girl!  :) I hope to contribute more myself soon; In all fairness though, it may take me awhile to catch up to you or Zazzer!
AnyA 06:20, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
