Yes some of the links appear a bit boring at first, but they are VERY helpful if you ever take the time to read them.
Remember to place any articles you create into a category so we don't get orphans.

P.S. I like messages :-P
P.P.S. as for your user name, someone may deem it innappropriate. I wont as I get the Chappelle ref. but just saying watch out. Redwolf24 20:38, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
- wow, thats amazing. --Is Wayne Brady gonna have to smack a bitch? , Well is he? 20:40, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

- Yeah I get it, I have the second season on DVD. I'm Rick James Bitch. Ha, lol, D. J. Bracey (talk) 00:46, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

- Isn't it "choke a bitch"? Adam Bishop 07:01, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, I don't get the Chappelle reference and I don't think it's relevant. This name isn't even remotely appropriate. Your edits, on the other hand, are very welcome. Please choose a less offensive name and continue editing. See block notice. --Tony SidawayTalk 07:35, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, please do keep editing, since you're good at it, but please do find a new name. I'm sure you're annoyed at this, which probably strikes you as petty Naziism or the like, but wikipedia has become a very wide-ranging area featuring people with lots of different ages, backgrounds and cultures, so seemingly-offensive-but-not-really-because-its-a-joke references fall flat. (I don't get it, either) - DavidWBrooks 11:37, 13 August 2005 (UTC)
Could someone who objects to it please explain carefully for the benefit of this higgerant Brit what is wrong with this user name? Provide wikilinks such as: Wayne Brady and Chappelle's Show. I have followed these links and still cannot see what the problem is. I remember the fuss when Janet Jackson did not even flash a nipple (it was concealed). I assumed the fuss was made up by the media and her PR department. But I believe that ordinary people did actually complain about it. Amazing. -- RHaworth 17:21:13, 2005-08-13 (UTC)
[edit] This does not help
It does not help your situation when you create an account by the name of IsWayneBradygonnahavetosmackabitch2 to circumvent your block. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 04:14, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
- And yes, I know it was you. Just look at Special:Contributions/IsWayneBradygonnahavetosmackabitch2 and compare them to yours. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 04:16, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
- You made a mistake my friend. After creating User:IsWayneBradygonnahavetosmackabitch3, any chance of this account being unblocked has been destroyed. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 04:24, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

- According to Webster's NewWorld Dictionary, a vandal is:
- n.
- 1. a member of an East Germanic tribe that ravaged Gaul, Spain, and N Africa and sacked Rome (455 A.D.)
- 2. [v-] a person who, out of malice or ignorance, destroys or spoils any public or private property, esp. that which is beautiful or artistic
- —adj.
- 1. of the Vandals: also Vandalic
- 2. [v-] like or characteristic of a vandal; ruthlessly destructive
- Now, none of those definitions seem to match this user. ‡ Jarlaxle 04:59, August 14, 2005 (UTC)

- I agree. And no one has answered my question above - what is the problem with this as a user name? -- RHaworth 19:27:46, 2005-08-14 (UTC)

It's a derogatory reference to women and advocates the use of violence. --Tony SidawayTalk 19:31, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
- ROTFLMAO. "Bitch" is, according to MY dictionary, a quite prim and proper scientific term meaning "adult female canid". So, whatever all this nonsense is about derogatory names for women really needs to stop -- this is really about whether or not Wayne Brady is going to need to smack a puppy's momma. And as to whether or not it advocates violence -- it doesn't say "Hey, Wayne Brady, we advocate that you go smack a bitch!" but rather poses it as a question -- is he going to have to smack a bitch, or is he not going to have to? --Node 03:38, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- That's your point of view. Not everyone sees it that way. ‡ Jarlaxle 06:00, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

- Alright, enough. We don't care what Webster's has to say. I'm quoting directly from Wikipedia:Vandalism:
- Types of Vandalism
- Attention seeking vandalism
- Adding insults, using offensive usernames, replacing articles with jokes etc. (see also Wikipedia:No personal attacks)
- Attention seeking vandalism
- So, according to Wikipedia, he is a vandal. Linuxbeak | Talk | Desk 14:20, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Well, according to the real world, he isn't. ‡ Jarlaxle 19:57, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Clubbing the baby seals
I think you just be tagging these seal images incorrectly. I think {{seal}} is what you are looking foir. --Chris Griswold 07:20, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Untagged image
An image you uploaded, Image:Pottawattamie County ia seal.gif, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 15:53, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Please do not upload still images in the GIF format
Hello and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you've uploaded a number of still images in the GIF format. In the future, please save GIF images in the PNG format before uploading (see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload). PNG images almost always have a smaller file size, which decreases the amount of time they take to load. There are a bunch of other advantages to the PNG format such as lossless compression that you can read about on its Wikipedia article. —Remember the dot (t) 22:59, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
