User page

Do you have any ideas for your design- something similar to my page, for instance? EVOCATIVEINTRIGUE TALKTOME | EMAILME 20:30, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Boo! Stress!

Hey there Chili14, I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling stressed out! Don't let your signature issues get to you too much, the code it takes to make them is always really finiky and seems to take ages to actually work. Once you get it going, though, I'm sure it will be great. -- Natalya 04:24, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

RfA/UP

Hi Chili,

Thanks for your support. I thought it might fail, but since I was nominated figured I go along with it anyway. It has been surprisingly stressful, especially with work on top, and some of the comments hit me as a little blunt, especially from editors who I don't know or don't know me, as well as vague: one editor claims my major edits are of poor quality, but doesn't specify why! In the end, it's just Wikipedia and I've been meaning to cut down editing anyway, so this is probably an ideal time.

Once I'm less ill and can type for more than 5 minutes without sneezing, I'll have a look at designing your user page like your suggestion.

Thanks again for your note of support, it was appreciated!

Fixing your userpage

I've decided to be bold and fix your userpage. Revert or ask me on my talkpage if you don't like it. Cheers, [ælfəks] 03:55, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

User Voldemort

  • My username is obviously in reference to a character from a series of books about a young wizard named Harry Potter. You might have heard about it before. LOL -- Voldemort 21:10, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Wikibreak

Chili,

I've now replaced my name with my latest signature, as per your request.

I'm taking a bit of a Wikibreak too: I've just about recovered but I feel no immediate urge to return to Wikipedia to edit, plus I need to catch up on the work I missed.

Have a good break!

WikiProject Narnia

Hello, I noticed that you are a fan of The Chronicles of Narnia. I thought you may be interested in knowing that there is a WikiProject working to improve articles about Narnia, your help would be greatly appreciated. Please consider joining the WikiProject Narnia. Thank you! Bornagain4 23:29, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Your return

Remember these are the best years of your life!

Nice to see you back: my new editing pattern seems to be similar to mine!

You can check out my userpage if you want to.----Edtalk c E 20:47, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Sock Accounts

It's totally OK to have a sock account, as long as you state it clearly in the account and don't use it for vote spam (in XfD, RfA, etc.) Check out WP:SOCK#Legitimate_uses_of_multiple_accounts. Regards, alphaChimp laudare 00:48, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm not even sure you need to notify your the same person, so long as you don't abuse it by trying influence policy, get around a block or gain an advantage in an article dispute. (Basically, if they never interact or edit the same articles you'll be ok.) I could be wrong so take a look at WP:SOCK to be sure :) ---J.S (t|c) 04:56, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

August Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: To-Do List
The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  1. In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
  2. The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
  3. Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
  4. Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
  5. Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
  6. There is a page for discussing the front page redesign.
Signed...

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

Hey Chili, thanks very much for the smile. It really meant a lot :) Take care. Thε Halo Θ 00:45, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Your retirement

I'm deeply saddened to see you leave, but I understand you have a lot of responsibilities in your life and respect your decision to leave. I hope to see you hopefully come around once in awhile because I always enjoyed your enthusiasm for dc Talk and other Christian related article. I hope you have a great life. --WillMak050389 02:47, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Seconded. Good luck Chili. Daniel.Bryant 04:25, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

User page finished

Done! I reccomend you cut down your list of major contribs, so the left side is of a similar length to the right. Cheers, Daniel.Bryant 08:24, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Helpme

Is there a way for other editors to see when you log in/out?

I don't think so. —Keakealani talkcontribs 22:14, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
As far as I know, I do not know of any tracker that lets people know when you log in or log out of Wikipedia. Many users, including myself, choose to have the computer remember our log in information, and only log in once. The only way of knowing if a user is active is by checking their User contributions page. --Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Contribs) 22:17, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
On the sign in page, under the boxes for user name and password, there is a box that says "Remember me". If you check that box, you will not have to log in every time you visit Wikipedia.--Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Contribs) 22:50, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
