[edit] Thanks

Thanks a lot for fixing up the citations on the Tar Heel wikipedia entry. I still am trying to figure out how to do that. Remember 19:17, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Just got your messsage. I like the way you did the citations much more than the way I put them together. Thanks a lot for your help. Remember 19:18, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mediation Cabal Case

I have agreed to review the case. Please be prepared to enter discussion or supplement your viewpoints. -- ßottesiηi ^(talk) 17:00, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

No problem. -- ßottesiηi ^(talk) 04:13, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Oops

I had missed that. I'll delist it now. Thanks for the heads up. -^demon^{[yell at me]} 03:19, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NAACP Deletion

[edit] A bit confused

So what are you talking about? What is the Bit? --WillMak050389 20:14, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

I, personally don't think I'm ready yet, plus I'm still busy with school and work, I don't really have that much time to edit anymore. But, I thank you for your consideration... --WillMak050389 20:24, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AOL User Issue

Greetings - I saw that you were recently involved in blocking 152.163.100.10 and that user is at it again, deleting an entire section of the Mike Krzyzewski page without an edit summary, and despite the recreation of that section several times. I don't want to hit my own 3RR on the thing, so I was wondering what should be done and how this user might be politely invited to the talk page versus an edit war. Thanks much!

The 3RR rule does not apply to the reversion of obvious vandalism, so feel free to revert vandals as often as needed. For more decisive action, you can post the details on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism, where an admin will usually respond within minutes.

[edit] Duke page

Thanks for the congrats! Nice job reverting/warning vandals! It will be quite interesting to see if the page improves over the day. My guess is there will be a few minor improvements after 500+ edits. The changes so far ([1]) have been minor except for the relatively major layout changes to the pictures. I understand why somebody changed it such that the photos are under the appropriate section, but I still think the other way looked better when the photo is on the left. When it's on the right, there's really no difference. -Bluedog423^Talk 16:38, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] FYI: You forgot subst: when warning User talk:Nar mar farin

When using certain template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. It appears that WinBot fixed it for you. -Will Pittenger 02:54, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

There are scripts that add either tabs or toolbox entries that claim to add templates to the current user. You go to the user talk page you want to add the warning to. Click the + tab to add a new section. The tabs or toolbox will then appear.

However, neither solution works great. One tab is "es." Also included are "bv," "o," "j," "w-n," "w-a," and "w-a-p." What template those add is unknown. Futhermore, once you click a tab, you will add the template to the user. It displays a dialog asking for a page name to reference, however, while it has a Cancel button, clicking it adds the template without the page name. Once you close the dialog, the rest is automatic.

The toolbox entries do have more text in the name. They also obey the Cancel button. However, all the update is the subject/heading. It is still up to you (in my tests) to do the actual warning and save the page. -Will Pittenger 05:29, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject College Basketball

I noticed your history with Duke content here on Wikipedia. There's been some good movement recently going at the College Basketball WikiProject. I wanted to extend the invite to another Blue Devil to come on over and join the discussion. -- Daveahern 21:09, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:EffatCollegeLogo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.
