[edit] Not a blog

Hi, I saw your comment over at the Guitarists wikiproject about discussing guitars here. You said, "I don't see why personal talk pages can't resemble blogs". Well, the reason why is because it's against Wikipedia policy, in particular, WP:NOT#What your user page is not, which says, "Your user page is not a personal homepage, nor is it a blog". Basically, user pages are provided to help you organize the stuff you're working on and keep track of things. Not so that you can socialize. Now me, personally, I don't care what you do here. I'm not here to play narc. I just want to make sure you know the rules. What you do with that knowledge is up to you. Anyway, my favorite guitar, of all the ones I've ever owned, was a 1940s Gibson L5 carved-top acoustic which just had the sweetest tone and beautiful touch. It disappeared over a decade ago, and I still miss it. Oh well.  :) Xtifr _tälk 04:10, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit Problem

Hi! I can't edit or leave comments in the Spider-Man 3 page. Have I been banned from doing so? If so then someone should have told me and for how long. Dark Spidey 00:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Hey, Kev! I keep editing the 'Casper' film page but some one always changes it. They keep saying he died from hypothermia, but in the film there is an article on the floor that says "Pneumonia claims life of 11 yr. old boy." So how do we solve this? I have proof, he doesn't Dark Spidey 00:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Uncyclopedian

Responded on the talk page. Joyous! | Talk 21:42, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for being nice. I usually get called Interesting Names during discussions.  :-) Joyous! | Talk 22:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for your greeting

About the name: I've used similar ones, sometimes they let me keep it, sometimes they don't. I usually only edit the sandbox, anyways. I'm just a goof.$766,642.76..!..!...!...HOLY !!! CanIUseThisName,Please? 06:03, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Help?

I am an AOL user, so I guess my IP address got mixed up with somebody else's. Thanks in advance for helping me sort this out. -- Kevin ^(TALK)_(MUSIC) 21:38, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

I will notify the blocking admin. - crz crztalk 04:51, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Twelfth Amendment

You're right; I've redirected it to Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution ShakingSpirit^talk 03:32, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

No worries, thanks for pointing out the problem ^_^ ShakingSpirit^talk 03:40, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] About converting file formats

Thanks for the hello, by the way.

I did a bit of searching, and many image programs can convert between the formats you mentioned. Here are a couple standard programs i checked out and the formats they can "save as."

[edit] Microsoft Paint

• .bmp
• .dib
• .gif
• .jpg
• .jpeg

.bmp and .dib have the option of "Monochrome," "16 color," "256 color," and "24-bit" formats.

[edit] Microsoft Photo Editor

• .gif
• .bmp
• .jpg
• .jpeg
• .tif
• .png
• .pcx

[edit] External Links

Also, for some links to Converting Programs, check out Converting Images

[edit] Thanks for the answer

Thank you. I looked over the tutorial several times and was utterly baffled.

[edit] My buddy Userbox

Do you like the new userbox I added? Thanks for being my buddy... Anyway, visit my slightly improved Userpage... :)Littleghostboo[ talk ] 07:15, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Chess

My chess page is under threat of deletion! I noticed that you enjoyed a game with user:zapptastic once before, so please defend my shess page for good reasons at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Guitarmankev1/Chess. Otherwise, the entire chess world on wikipedia may crumble eventually. - Kevin ^(TALK) 17:31, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Are you spamming for support votes on user Talk pages, as with TBC, West Brom 4ever, Littleghostboo, Temple1865 and

Calmypal? Are you not aware of votestacking? Please cease and desist immediately. (aeropagitica) 18:41, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

I wasn't aware of that policy, yet I was only trying to make other people aware of what was going on, and I was using the same message so that I wouldn't have to type it over and over again. A question, though. How are other people supposed to become aware of the vote if I cannot notify them? Again, I apologise and I did not mean to violate policy. - Kevin ^(TALK) 18:49, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

The page is tagged with a link to the MfD discussion. Interested editors can find the discussion that way. I'm sure that you didn't mean to violate policy but I was obliged to warn you when I found out. (aeropagitica) 19:03, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WP:SIG

Hi. Could you review the above-mentioned guideline and remove the image from your signture? Regards, — Nearly Headless Nick 08:01, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chess?

Want to play a game of chess? RiseRobotRise 05:05, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Hey, you can find the chess table here. If you want to be white, go ahead and move. If you want to be black, then let me know. - Kevin ^(TALK) 16:03, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

I'll make a random pick on the color, once I find a black and white chess piece RiseRobotRise 19:10, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: ADOM

Hmmm, it's been a while since I last played ADOM. As far as I know, asking in rec.games.roguelike.adom should get you plenty of answers.

[edit] name

Thanks. :)

Your username took me a while to get, I didn't understand what a mankev was. :P Pax:Vobiscum 16:15, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE: SANDBOX

I set up a sandbox page and then couldn't work out how to use it, so I'm sorry but I can't answer your questions. My apologies for delay in replying. If you ever find out how it's done I would be pleased to hear from you. Obiskobilob 21:18, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Category

Hey, I was wondering if I could create a category page that would list all the people that I've given "newbie welcomes" to. This would help me to keep track of them better than writing them all down myself. I couldn't really find any policy about this, and I don't know if I could make such a category under my own userspace. Help me out? -- Kevin ^(TALK) 16:38, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

If you make your own welcome template then you can see to whose page you have added it by clicking on the 'what links here' link on the left-hand side of the page. Categorising is a little harder to do. (aeropagitica) 17:02, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
