Thanks, is there somewhere I can go to get help with my sig? I can't figure out what's wrong with my HTML tags :( Honeymane Heghlu meH QaQ jajvam 04:15, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Signature#Customizing_your_signature may or may not be of help. That has useful information on how to actually customize your signature, but I see you've already figured out how to do that fine. If you need HTML help, you may want to visit a site like http://www.w3schools.com/ and check out their HTML section. I'd also be happy to help if you posted a sample of the problem code on my talk page. —Lantoka ( talk | contrib) 01:49, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] HTML help :(

Honeymane Heghlu meH QaQ jajvam Where Am I going wrong?--<font color=”red” face=”Old English Text MT, Papyrus”>Honeymane</font><sup><font face=”KlingonTNG, New Times Roman”> Heghlu meH QaQ jajvam</font></sup> 02:10, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

You need to get the <font> tag inside the <a> tag (handled with [[ ]] brackets on Wikipedia). You would do this with the following code:
[[User:Honeymane|<font color="red" face="Old English Text MT, Papyrus">Honeymane</font>]]
 <sub>[[User:Honeymane/talk|<font face="KlingonTNG, New Times Roman">Heghlu meH QaQ jajvam</font>]]</sub>
Which renders:

Thanks :) now, if only I could fix my Copy function! --HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 03:05, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chakat

I've undeleted the article to allow you to get a copy. Note that it sometimes takes a little while for articles that are undeleted after a new article is created in its place to appear (such as the redirect created in this case). I don't see the article yet, but it should show up soon. Let me know when you have copied the article. —Doug Bell talk 21:17, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

If you're still here, it's available now in the history. (Go to the redirect page and click on the history button.) —Doug Bell talk 22:02, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
I see, it was never really deleted was it? just altered. Okay then I have my copy, thanks for all your help Doug, I hope it wasn't too much of a problem.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 02:05, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
You're welcome. I learned something about how to purge the cache so that the undeletion shows up right away, so that was useful for me. Also, no, it was deleted before; when it got undeleted it merged it with my previous edit that redirected it. If you look at it now, you can see what it looked like before I undeleted it and that there was no history before I undeleted it. —Doug Bell talk 02:35, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unilateral move of Male bra to Male brassiere

Have you ever even read WP:NAME? – Lantoka (talk) 21:48, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

What are you pointing out?--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 21:52, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
"Generally, article naming should give priority to what the majority of English speakers would most easily recognize, with a reasonable minimum of ambiguity, while at the same time making linking to those articles easy and second nature." The reason you cite for making that page move is that the new title is more formal. That seems to go contrary to WP:NAME, since it states that the most easily recognizable title should get priority.


In short, I disagree with your move and once again urge you to make good use of talk pages and read up on applicable policies, guidelines, and previous discussion before proceeding with controversial moves. This isn't the first time we've stepped on each other's toes. – Lantoka (talk) 22:04, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
If you read the section you are quoting, the article is name Brassiere not Bra because it's ambiguous. And frankly I agree; Just because we use the term Bra in everyday slang (which is what it is) does not mean that the article has to be termed that. This is why we have redirect pages.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 22:18, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
Which... I already said. "::The article brassiere is at brassiere and not bra for disambiguation purposes. There was actually discussion about the name on its talk page, and it can be found in the first archive."
And according to Wikipedia guidelines, since male bra is completely unambiguous and is unarguably the more common usage (unlike brassiere where there's ambiguity), male bra is the ideal article name.
Please, try harder to work with others and to understand what they're trying to tell you. I've put considerable time and effort into arguing with you on talk pages and trying to explain things to you and you always somehow seem to miss my points. – Lantoka (talk) 23:09, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
It's only 'unambiguous' because of the word 'male'.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 23:49, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RE:

What article is it, and have you tried to sort it out on the talk page? -- THL 00:04, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

The article in question is History of Feminism, but it's okay, I have another user helping me with it.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 00:11, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Help

I'm the logged out User:The Hybrid. I messed up my skin trying to get a new anti-vandal tool, and now whenever I try to log in or fix it logged out my computer freezes. Could you blank User:The Hybrid/monobook.js please. I'll return the favor however you want. Please tell me on my IP talk page if you do this. Cheers, 71.223.40.167 08:43, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Iranian women's movement

Hi there. I moved the template as it looked ugly in my browser. It pushed all photos down and they are not in front of the paragraph refered to them any longer. Maybe in your browser it looks different. Please let me know about that.Thanks.Sangak 09:26, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, next time, please fill out the edit summary; I'm going to se if there is anything I can do to fix the image formating, so give me a half an hour.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 20:20, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Martin Luther Timeline

Hi! I noticed that you adjusted the timeline some. I'm not quite sure what you did to it, but it now displaces the first section head a little. I thought I'd ask why you did this before trying to fix this problem. --CTSWyneken(talk) 12:15, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

When I came across the image, it didn't seem 'right' if was not alinied with any side, and was just sort of floating in the middle between the introduction and the first heading, I felt it looked better in a box and located on the left side.
However, feel free to change it back, or change the size of the image so it doesn't displace the first heading. I just felt it added to the readablilty of the article.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 20:15, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Scizor animation

Image:ScizoranimatedGIF.gif

I replaced the animation as it seemed rather distracting. I've uploaded the animated version to a separate file for you, I won't object if you want to change things back. LukeSurl 12:58, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you, I think I'm going to edit it and reupload it, hopefully improved.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 04:21, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Do you mind if I upload my newer version?--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 04:55, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re. My Name

Hmm, never noticed it. I just wanted it to be the shade of blue it is now, never noticing the color of the interwiki link. As it is, I've been dragging this sig for too long, I'll probably change it in the next couple of days anyways. Cheers, The Raven's Apprentice (Talk|Contribs) 12:30, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Don't change it on my account, I just thought I should point that out.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 04:23, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Brassiere Article

I am asking your assistance to help stop the removal of the 'male bra' segment on the Wikipedia Article Brassiere, I noticed you helped to keep it before, but now STEPHEN BURNETT keeps removing it HELP! MPBorisJohnson

[edit] Request for editting

Now that a consensus has been established on Talk:Breast for the inclusion of the deleted images, especially "Image:Breast_shape_type-_lengthwise_growth_and_angled_end.jpg|thumb|right|Breasts with a high length-to-base ratio, angled ends, and a straight upper part." (the new image), I request that you revert the deletions, as it is generally better that a variety of edittors make the same revert, so as to demonstrate consensus. I have made one revert in the last 24 hours, and so has MotherAmy.

By the way, I noticed on your user page that you share many interests with me, such as star wars, the legend of zelda, atheism, and evolution. Coincidence?

Embryoglio 04:27, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

I must confess, I'm not really sure where I should start my editting with such a large edit war going on.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 05:22, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

The main dispute is over the image that I mentioned, which is from the top of the section 'shape and support' (where the images were deleted from). There are also 2 other associated images in that area, such that all 3 images are used to demonstrate contrasting breast shapes with the minimum necessary number of images. See the edit history of the article. The 3 images, complete with their descriptive captions, and sans brackets, are:

  • Image:Weibliche-brust.jpg|thumb|right|Relatively round breasts which protrude almost horizontally.
  • Image:Ptosis.jpg|thumb|right|Relatively large breasts which extend below the inframammary line
    These breasts also have a low length-to-base ratio, flat ends, and a very convex upper part.
  • Image:Breast_shape_type-_lengthwise_growth_and_angled_end.jpg|thumb|right|Breasts with a high length-to-base ratio, angled ends, and a straight upper part.

Embryoglio 06:29, 8 January 2007 (UTC)


We've completed re-adding all of the images that had been removed from the article for MotherAmy. Now we are discussing what images, if any might add to the quality of the article. Thanks in advance for your participation. Please see (Breast/sandbox. Atom 02:54, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Correction of deception by Atomaton

At Talk:Breast, the user Atomaton tried to fool you into thinking that the 'badly drawn breasts' that you mentioned (the painting, which appears near the end of the article) is the image that I added. That is false. The image that I added can be seen at Talk:Breast under the RfC section, in which it is the second image (it is titled "Image:Breast_shape_type-_lengthwise_growth_and_angled_end.jpg").

[edit] Reverting my Pokémon edits

I may have been misunderstood. All I did was add the official Japanese name Romanizations and delete unnecessary foreign-language names like those of France and Germany. (these are articles on an English/American site on something of Japanese origin so only those two should matter, right?)—ウルタプ 00:45, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

some of them didn't look like romanizations of the names, and looked almost exactly like the english name, you also removed the Japanese characters.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 01:00, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
Well, there are a lot of cases where both names are identical (the vast majority of legendaries, for example; with the exception of the original three birds there've only been spelling changes to make pronunciation more obvious). And katakana and Roma-ji don't really need to be on the page twice.
That maybe, but don't remove the japanese characters, they are impotent to the article.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 00:47, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
Well, yeah, I'm not removing the ones in the Template:Nihongo.—ウルタプ 01:03, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
I'm not sure how that's related to this discussion. I suggest you refer to the Pokémon Collaborative Project before making more changes regrading the japanese names, as you once again have removed the japanese characters from an article's japanese name space.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 01:48, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] NS Image

The nation I sreeenshot just happens to have a large flag. I can use another nation if you'd like.--Whytecypress 02:01, 2 February 2007 (UTC) What size would be most representative? It seems to vary quite a bit. Should I use the Default Aboriginal flag?--Whytecypress 01:36, 4 February 2007 (UTC) Well, currently, custom flags have to be with in a size, I can't remember what it is right now though.

[edit] Vista

Please restate your opinion on the Vista move on the Vista talk page. Thank you. W3stfa11/Talk to me 03:20, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: "Censorship"

I'm sorry but I'm afraid you're misusing the term "censorship." It means making something forbidden or unavailable while the picture is still available with the linkimage template; the only difference being that readers are not forced to see it but they can simply choose. Please note that the opposite of "forbidden" is not "obligatory" but "allowed."

Please note also that Wikipedia:Image use policy contains an important caveat: "Do not upload shocking or explicit pictures, unless they have been approved by a consensus of editors for the relevant article." WP:NOT#Censor is not an open door to everything; it does not trump all other policies on Wikipedia. Adam78 12:49, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Merging fetish articles

I'm noted that you've said that merging all the Fetish stubs into one article is a good idea; however, I'm not sure hoq to go about this, I rather not step on people's toes, should I create the article and then put up notification's on the articles to be merged into it? --HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 23:01, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi Honeymane, thanks for writing me. Yes, I do think creating a new article to merge the stubs to is a good idea. If you are worried about stepping on toes, here is the procedure I would use: 1) create a new article with enough context to stand on its own; 2) for each article to be merged, add the tag {{mergeto|new article name}} and also say something like "I would like to merge this article to [[new article name]], any objections?" on the talk page, 3) wait for responses, 4) if no negative responses, then do the merge. If you're feeling more bold, you can also think about doing larger structural changes, such as moving the "Types of fetishes" section of Sexual fetishism to its own article (e.g. Types of sexual fetishes) so that merging minor fetishes there won't unbalance the primary Sexual fetishism article. Quarl (talk) 2007-02-21 07:16Z
Quarl, thanks for you advise, is there any way that I can gain access to the information in the deleted articles of Insertion fantasy, etc (I'll get a list) for the new article List of uncommon fetishes? It's a bit difficult to have any information in the article if I have nothing to 'list'.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 20:21, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
Sure, I have undeleted the article Insertion fantasy to User:Honeymane/Insertion fantasy. Before you merge content from this one though, make sure that it's attributable. Quarl (talk) 2007-02-25 03:49Z
thanks, I'll see what I can do--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 08:05, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
BTW, the article I created is up for deletion.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 19:37, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Hey! I have already assembled a list of 20 articles that I think could be made into a single "Garment fetishism" article. Check it out on my page here (at the bottom) and tell me what you think. I think it will help alot. If you agree I'll start a model for the page in my sandbox. Thanks. NeoFreak 03:17, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Also, I don't think the title "List of uncommon fetishes" will work because all fetishes, by their very nature, are considered to be uncommon. NeoFreak 03:19, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
I know, I watch your list. Uncommon among uncommons perhaps? the title's really only a place holder, If you want to suggest another one, on it's talk page, that'd be great.
as for you article; I agree that they could be merged into one article, or, they could be merged into a garment section (etc) in the article I'm attempting to create. Sadly, It's already been put up for deletion, and I'm meeting some resistance on the pages I've tagged.--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 08:05, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
