Attendance figures

Hi, I'll let you fix those figures, it hurt my brain last time I tried to fix them at the end of the round. Though the 60 extra for the Roar was easy enough. I also think I'm half asleep. Could you please verify how many goals Vaughan Coveny has scored so far this year? I'm getting conflicting information, thanks. --Squilibob 12:20, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Two, according to A-League's match reports. Daniel.Bryant 12:27, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

State Plane Coordinate System

I made this page before I saw your comment about making it. If you've made a version, feel free to replace or incorporate mine, it's all good! Pfly 22:09, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Nope, that's basically all I wanted to add. Nice article! Consider making a DYK out of it. Cheers, Daniel.Bryant 00:04, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

re:Colour

Why, how unreadable is it? semper fiMoe 23:55, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

On my screen, I have to highlight it. Maybe my screen is just dark... /me slaps CRT. Daniel.Bryant 23:58, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Could you see if your computer is darker than normal please. I don't want to have to change the color if I don't have too. To me, I can see everything, all text unhighlighted. semper fiMoe 00:02, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
Yep, when I fiddle around with brightness and contrast settings, it becomes readable. Sorry about wasting your time :) Cheers, Daniel.Bryant 00:03, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
No problem :) semper fiMoe 00:04, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Request

Dispute resolution? There is no dispute to resolve - there's an admin who says that is going to continue to block in violation of policy unless I do some idiotic thing or other? It really has nothing to do with me - I'd be happy to have nothing further to do with this.

If you really want peace, you should tell his friends to stop harrassing me and instead explain to Mets what admins can and can't do. Guettarda 01:54, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

I see that I'm not the only user sharing this viewpoint on your user talk page. Disruption block may be on the horizon... Daniel.Bryant 08:41, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

RE: Certain users on certain talk pages doing certain things

Ah, thanks a lot! Your message was just what I needed there! A lot of that discussion happened last night when I was a bit tired and not thinking as clearly as I normally would have. No excuses in as far as the snarky tone, but I probably am too involved in the discussion (which has long since disintegrated into a dispute). There's really no need to ever get that silly, so again, thanks a lot for your message! It definitely helped me keep things in perspective (I actually feel a bit ridiculous now that I look at how I handled it). Cheers mate! hoopydinkConas tá tú? 17:07, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

No problems! Don't worry, we still all love you :) Cheers, Daniel·Bryant [Talk] 03:47, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

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 20:45, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Sorry

Didn't notice that. I thought no consensus was the equivalent of keep. --¿¡Exir Kamalabadi?!Join Esperanza! 06:11, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

It is, in essence. It achieves the same result, just a different manner. Oh, and don't be sorry - I did the exact same thing, once, because I didn't realise. Just remember to follow what the guideline says, and you'll be fine :) Cheers, Daniel.Bryant [ T · C ] 06:11, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Re:Advisory Council

Thanks for the kind words, I'll try my best to help the council! :) Highway Grammar Enforcer! 07:48, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm sure you will do us all proud :D Cheers, Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 07:50, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Deletions

Please fix the problems with your merge as described on Talk:List of Diagnosis: Murder episodes or leave the two articles. You may want to apply one of the merge templates, if you don't want to do it yourself. -- User:Docu —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Docu (talkcontribs) 08:07, 29 October 2006 (UTC).

Um, the merge was as a result of an AfD decision, so there will be no reverting. You can't apply a "merge" tag to a redirect. I'll link them in a second. Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 08:07, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Thankyou so much!

Well what can I say? Thankyou again. It takes a great editor and wikipedian to be so humble and forgiving. Your kindess and help is overwhelming and will not go unawarded. If you ever need a hand or anything in the future, just give me a whistle. Good luck and best regards. Culverin? Talk 11:23, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

No problems. Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 11:37, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

User:Daniel.Bryant/Title

This user template has been mentioned on Pump. Sorry, but I also find its use unacceptable. It is clever but I don't think you should use it anywhere at all. I suggest you return to each place you have used it and replace it with something less confrontational and obscure. I'm sure you wish to avoid unpleasantness; this thing will upset a lot of your fellow editors. Sorry. John Reid 00:46, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

By the way, "I" haven't used it anywhere - it is a person's own choice. Notice even I don't use it. Please see my response on the Pump. Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 07:41, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Interesting is Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/Log/2006 June 30#Template:Title... Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 08:09, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Sorry for the sarcasm at the Pump, I really need to police my late-night editing more carefully. That post of mine didn't do anything to improve WP and I hope you're not offended :) --Doc Tropics Message in a bottle 08:52, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Not offended at all - I was probably a little bit hasty, and hence it was more my fault for responding. Nevertheless, thanks for the messages - I hate grudges to be held, even for the most minor things, so I hope we can just forgive and forget, and improve the encyclopaedia. I'm going to vote "Delete" - I didn't realise it was still in my userspace until it was brought up, and I agree with the fact it is purely misleading. Cheers, Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 08:55, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

There you go

I just nominated Zsinj. Hey, you're from Adelaide too!  Jorcogα  09:25, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza User Page Award

Hi Daniel.Bryant! You've signed up to be a judge for the Esperanza User Page Award! You'll have three user pages to examine. The user pages you get coincide with your signup number. So if you signed up to be a judge in spot 1 than you will get nominations 1-3. Pick your favorite one, and list it in the finalist section. After all 5 judges have chosen a finalist it's time to award them 1-10 points in the four categories:

  • Attractiveness: general layout, considering colour scheme and/or use of tables if applicable
  • Usefulness: links to subpages or editing aids, helpful information
  • Interesting-ness: quirky, unique, captivating, or funny content
  • General niceness: at the judges' discretion

Please remember to include Subpages in your judging criteria. See the Scores section on this page for additional information on your job as a judge.

Keep in mind that your scores are confidential! Email Celestianpower with your scores and final picks. As soon as all the scores have been tallied, a winner will be announced! Thanks. Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 09:42, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

I should probably stop spamming myself... Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 10:40, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
LOL -- Lost(talk) 05:41, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Userpage award

Hello Daniel Bryant. I have steped down from being a judge for the userpage award. I hope this is okay for the rules.--Seadoge 12:26, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

OK, no worries. I'll amend the list of judges. Cheers, Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 12:48, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Head spinning

Right, okay, sorry for being a bit slow, but do I just choose a finalist at this point, without scores? Or do I choose a finalist and send my score of all three? Sorry, Highway Grammar Enforcer! 16:01, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Just pick one finalist. We only "score" once we have all 5 finalists. Cheers, Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 21:23, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback

Thanks for the feedback. It is much appreciated. I used most suggestions, realizing my proses need work as well. Thanks for the links, also. --meatclerk 17:29, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

No problems :) Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 21:24, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

User page layout

Do you mind if I use the borders of your user page in mine? I just changed their color to black, such an awsome color. Michaelas10 (T|C) 18:04, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

No problems. Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 21:30, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Barnstar

The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
Your service to Wikipedia is most deserving of this barnstar. Good job! Sharkface217 21:50, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Wow, two barnstars in two days... Cheers! Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 05:23, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Your Signature

Hey, I really like your signature with the [T C] thing. I've been looking at the WP pages on altering your signature, but can't find anything useful for those of us who aren't overly good with programming languages... any chance you could share the code for yours? Thanks! -- Chabuk 04:41, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

WP:SIG and WP:SIGHELP has a lot of info on the topic. Feel free to copy my code - it's on everyone of my posts. Just edit the page where it is, and have a look, and feel free to copy. Cheers, Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 05:10, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Hey Daniel... Thanks man. I never expected such words from everyone... I feel so humbled! -- Lost(talk) 05:44, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

No problems - looks like another quality user is joining the ranks soon :) Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 05:48, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

User page award

I didn't make it past the first round (sniff) - but I'd love to get some comments about possible improvements, if you could take a few minutes. Regards, Durova 15:59, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

OK, I'll do so sometime tonight (ACST). Cheers, Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 06:03, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Your response to Caloon2000 on the Personal attack intervention noticeboard

It should be noted that Caloon2000's report on the Personal attack intervention noticeboard does not satisfy the minimum requirements for making such a report (from the table on said page: "The editor must have been warned with the npa2, and npa3 templates as appropriate. Reports of unwarned editors may be removed"). Thanks. -- Weirdoactor 18:01, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

I noticed that after I posted, however as a non-admin, I'm in no position to decline the merits of requests. Cheers, Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 06:04, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Deon555's RfA

Thank you for your support on my RFA, which closed successfully yesterday with a result of (18/16/8).

Help needed!!

Hey Daniel, I have a favor to ask. I just put up a blue box on top of my page. Can you make it the same size as the DYK box just below that? How I wish I knew html.. (Yeah, probably I will be eligible for a user page award in fifty years :) -- Lost(talk) 06:31, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Now why is this showing inside Deon's thank you message?? (Scratches head) -- Lost(talk) 06:32, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Fixed the table problem - Deon forgot to close his table with |}. I'll have a fiddle with your user page thing right now :). Cheers, Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 06:33, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Done. Hope you like it :) Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 06:41, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Cheers! Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 08:42, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Are you admin? You may want to look at this too: User:Tourettes Guy and User:Shirlena. Having some problems - deleting stuff from their own talk pages, reinstating a G8 talk page (Talk:Tourettes guy), possible sockpuppets and here for only one reason - to reinstate the Tourette's Guy article.--HamedogTalk|@ 08:49, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Nope, I'm not an admin - that's one of the main reasons I'm running for AC :). I suggest ANI, if you need admin intervention. Cheers, Daniel.Bryant T · C ] 08:51, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
