[edit] User name change
I saw your post on another user talk and i thought i might be of some help to you. Here is the link to changing your user name. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Changing_username Shotmenot 18:45, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Reply to User Name
I responded on my talk page with this: Congratulations on getting a username! In answer to your question, go to WP:CHU for more information. However, since you are a very new user, you might be told to create a new account since your current account has very few edits.
I know the user above already gave you a link, but I thought I'd at least respond to you. Acalamari 18:55, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
- It's okay. I decided to stick with a quirky name, I can't be bothered lol. Though I did make tons of edits as an anomynous to music and celebrity articles. Nukleoptra 19:09, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Reply to Userboxes.
I replied with this: Go to this page: Wikipedia:Userboxes. Acalamari 19:18, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
- Um, confused. Nukleoptra 19:24, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Do I copy down the code?
not to interrupt, just giving a suggestion, a great way to learn about them is to view the code from other peoples pages then copy it into yours along with the changes. This is a good thing to do until you learn how to do it on your own. best of luck. Shotmenot 20:25, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
- To shotmenot: I was going to suggest that. Nice one. To Nukleoptra: I'm glad you took shotmenot's suggestion. By the way, make sure that every time you leave a message on a talk page that you remember to use the ~~~~ so you can sign your messages. I also suggest that whenever you do an edit that you write an edit summary in the edit summary box. Other users might think you're a vandal if you don't use summaries. I, however, know that you are not a vandal. Acalamari 21:10, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Reponse to Virus.
I would have to say it's a coincidence. I've only found the one virus on Wikipedia. If there were more viruses, I'd know about them. Having an account does not make you more prone to catching viruses. Don't you have any anti-virus software and/or a firewall? Acalamari 17:21, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
- If the only page you've been visiting is Wikipedia, then it makes sense the viruses would come from here, but if you've been to other sites, they get thrown into the equation. Again, don't you have any anti-virus software? Acalamari 16:28, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- AVG is a good anti-virus. My family and I use the most updated version. Acalamari 16:33, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Nicole Richie
Hey Nukleoptra. As a fellow editor, I'd like to remind you of Wikipedia's WP:ATT policy. Specifically, statements like "it is also rumored that Richie didn't pen the novel..." that don't even have a source generally should not be in Wikipedia. If some notable group commented on the rumors, it possibly can go in the article, but as it is it shouldn't be there. -SpuriousQ (talk) 18:51, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Tragic Kingdom
In case you see Tragic Kingdom or any other articles vandalized like that, I'd recommend using {{blatantvandal}} or something similar. Various articles have been vandalized with the edit summary MichaelMontalbano from different IPs, and I think several have been blocked because of it. ShadowHalo 19:46, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- I have no clue. Based on this one, I'd guess it's the person's name. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that some of the edit summaries have also been "pie". I'm even more in the dark on that one. ShadowHalo 19:51, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- I did a search and found nothing notable. It's probably the person's name.Nukleoptra 19:52, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Invite
- Sure. Thanks for asking. I'm interested in local history in paticular.Nukleoptra 20:07, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

- In that case, welcome to the Project, it has been very inactive recently so I left a note on the talk page very recently about making it active again, no-one seemed to object so I'm working on making it active again - your help is much appreciated! There are literally thousands of articles which need to be ttaged using {{WPE}} and I will be doing a lot of these but fell free to help out if you wish. I hope you enjoy being a member and feel free to contact me!! Tellyaddict 21:44, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- Don't forget to add the appropriate userboxes to your user page to show what Wikiprojects you're part of. :) Acalamari 22:54, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Courtney Love images
I saw your message about pictures of Courtney Love, and looking at your contributions suggest you're somewhat new to Wikipedia. So let me begin by asking you where you got these pictures from. Did you rip them off a website, did you take them yourself? In order to upload pictures to Wikipedia, you have to have a source, and an applicable "licence" to indicate it's copyright status. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for more information. Contact me if you have any questions. -- Reaper X 02:27, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] The Barnstars.
Thank you for the barnstars. :) I've moved them to my barnstars subpage. I'm glad I've been able to help you. Acalamari 17:20, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
- No problem. :)Nukleoptra 17:21, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject England
Hello! You have probably noticed that WikiProject England has been inactive recently and I and other members are working on making it active again and getting more members to join. I am kindly asking for your help tagging articles for class and importance using {{WPE}}, their are literally thousands of articles at Category:England and all of its sub-categories which urgently need tagging ad your help is needed! For more information about theses templates please see the Project Page and I hope you are enjoying being a member!! Tellyaddict 21:23, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Log In/Out.
Nothing bad happens, from my experience. Sometimes I haven't logged out; I just close my browser. Anyway, nothing bad should happen. It seems that Wikipedia logs out automatically whenever you close your browser down completely. Acalamari 20:03, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oh.Just wondering.:)Nukleoptra 20:18, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
