[edit] Your welcome message
Thanks for adding your welcome to the list of welcome templates. However, the {{PAGENAME}} variable, which you are using, can produce unwanted results. First, the welcomed user will see the {{PAGENAME}} code if he clicks "edit." And second, if the welcome is archived, the {{PAGENAME}} variable won't make sense, since it will change to reflect the name of the archived page.
For these reasons, you may wish to consider subst:ing the PAGENAME. You can't write {{subst:PAGENAME}} in your template, since that would evaluate the {{PAGENAME}} variable on your welcome message itself. Instead, you can include a {{{nocode}}} variable preceding {{PAGENAME}}, and then run the template with nocode=subst:. For example, running a template containing {{{{{nocode|}}}PAGENAME}} as {{subst:<template name>|nocode=subst:}} produces {{subst:PAGENAME}}, which then evaluates on the user talk page, making a static copy. See {{subst:User:Iamthejabberwock/Welcome}} or {{subst:User:GeorgeMoney/templates/welcome3}} for examples.
If you want to make this change to your templates but are confused by this complicated explanation (I was too the first time I heard it), I'd be happy to do it; just contact me at my talk page.
Thanks, TheJabberwʘck 02:46, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- I actually use a Firefox extension to welcome users, so the {{PAGENAME}} variable isn't an issue there. Thanks for notifying me though; now that the welcome message has been added to the list, {{{{{nocode|}}}PAGENAME}} would definitely be more appropriate. Regards, Sango123 (e) 03:03, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

- I found a better way to do the subst:thing, thanks to User:GeorgeMoney. Caution: you have to subst: or else it won't work. Your welcome is protected, so I can't make the change for you, but what you do is use <includeonly>SUBST:</includeonly> instead of {{{nocode}}}. It's much simpler and easier to understand.

[edit] A Request
. If you could just take a millisecond to stop by, I'd really be grateful. You've been a huge help since the first few moments of my WikiLife, so I'd really appreciate your opinion and everything. I also want to stress that I'm not asking for you to vote support; if you vote oppose, I will be equally thankful. I'd just like to hear your imput and get as much constructive criticism out of this experience as I possibly can. Thanks for reading this and considering my request! :) _-M o P-_ 01:30, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
- Hmm, sneaky sneaky... my MSN disregarded my turning off it's popup blocker and still put your email in the junk mail section. Oh well, thanks for the input! And if you were to become an admin... again... I'd support. :D _-M o P-_ 01:37, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
- P.S. and the co-operation idea for Trading Spaces in Esperanza is brilliant, I'd love to help you! I'd like to learn some new templates and all too. :) _-M o P-_ 01:40, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Talk:George Washington
First, I want to thank you for reverting the vandalism done to the George Washington article. Enlight of this I would like you to comment on the discuss I start on the talk pages entitle Fully Protected. Please read my statements carefully and voice your opinon. Thanks for everything!--(Steve 14:28, 2 May 2006 (UTC))
[edit] Thank You
Your welcome message was a lovely surprise. I appreciate it and look forward to becoming more familiar with the Wikipedia. --Susan 04:54, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Esalen Institute article
Hello, Sango123. CKA3KA, here. I have been considering nominating the Esalen Institute article for deletion, but since I've never done such a thing, I'd very much appreciate your input. Could you do me the favor of looking at my comments on that article's talk page and weighing in with your opinion on the issue? —CKA3KA (Skazka) 21:37, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Red Fox image....
.....on your user page. Love it, beautiful shot.ALR 17:34, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the link to the original, I love these animals. We tend to have a good few around where I live, in fact I had one crossed in front of me when I was driving to the gym the other day. Although OTOH we are a sheep farming area, so they do their fair share of damage as well; but thats the cycle of life.ALR 21:16, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks
I go out for the afternoon just to come home and see you've rv'd an attack on my User page. For that I say thank you! Cheers and take care! Anger22 20:38, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks for the revert back
It initially appeared information was being removed, not added to, [Manchukuo]...hence the reversion. Thx for correcting this. NetK 16:45, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] J. Arthur Younger (Jesse Arthur Younger) Article
Hello,
Thank you for redirecting the Walter H. Capps Article. I had discovered it while editing the other one (Walter Capps). I still have a great deal to learn about the mechanics of Wikipedia so with the help of User:David Kernow I added the delete request.
There is another Article I'd like to call to someone's attention: It is now titled 'J. Arthur Younger'. He is a US Representative from California. The way his name is listed makes it nearly impossible to search on. His full name is 'Jesse Arthur Younger'. Is there something that can be done to correct this?
As I said I'm still on a bit of a learning curve with Wiki.
Thanks,
- Michael David 16:51, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Hi Sango
Hi there. Sorry for me vandalising a page. I'm new to Wikipedia and I've learnt why it's bad. Really sorry. From Sandeep. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.155.148.65 (talk • contribs) 16:57, 7 May 2006.

[edit] User Page
Hi its' me again. I like your user page. I heard from other people that you helped them improve their user page. Can you help me too? Anonymous_anonymousHave a Nice Day 18:43, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks. I was thinking of sorting my user page out. I think that its all over the place. Something simple. Thanks again. Anonymous_anonymousHave a Nice Day 20:58, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Order of Categories
Hello again,
Please, one more thing. Is there a specific order that should be followed when listing the Categories at the bottom of a given Article? I've been listing them alphanumerically starting with the Birth year, and then alphabetically. I've noticed recently that a Wiki User is going through and reediting the order, putting the Birth & Year dates last. What's proper?
Thanks again,
- Michael David 19:36, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:216.56.4.194
Sango123, We had previously talked in regards to editor User:216.56.4.194 and his constant vandalism since last year. You have recently placed a block of one week on his account. With his block expired, the editor has returned, and has immediately begun placing racial slurs on pages, see this edit for an example. Can something more permanent be done about this? The editor's user contributions are constant vandalism, and despite a week long block, he continues to ignore the community and attempt considerable damage. Thank you for reviewing this. --Ataricodfish 18:38, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Is everything ok, dear Sango?
Sweet Sango, considering your normally amazing levels of activity, I'm somewhat concerned that you've only edited twice in the last three days. Is everything OK, hun? You know you can contact me anytime you wish in case you need. I hope it's just something temporary. We (umm... I) miss you. Hugs, Phaedriel ♥ tell me - 22:20, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Long time no see
Hi there, Sango. Wow, it's been a long time since we last talked. I trust everything is well with you? Incidentally, in my request for an account at the Wikimedia Foundation website (here), I put your name as a reference, in case they need convincing that I'm not crazy or something. I hope you don't mind :). Cheers, Redux 02:49, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
- Hey Sango, nice to hear from you again! Thank you so much for your endorsement over at Meta :) I really appreciate your kind words. I hope we'll be seeing each other around more often — if the "wikibreaks" of life will allow it.. Thanks so much again! Cheers, Redux 21:31, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Smile!
Mopper Speak! has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Smile to others by adding {{subst:smile}} or {{subst:smile2}} to their talk pages. Happy editing! Mopper Speak! 02:33, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User page renovation
I don't know how busy you are, but I decided to go ahead and ask anyways. I have already applied for it on the Esperanza projects page, but I would be honored if you renovated my user page. Its current state is just a hodge-podge of things I have added as I needed them over time. One of those cool user page templates would be nifty. I appreciate it. — ßottesiηi (talk) 20:52, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
- I'll leave the details to you, but I'm a fan of nice greens and blues. — ßottesiηi (talk) 01:07, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Oh yeah, think you could make the subpage box one of those drop-down boxes? Thanks. — ßottesiηi (talk) 22:24, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
- I'm just curious about this: I've noticed before that the hide/show boxes are always set to "hide" as default when the page loads, yet they are already hidden. It doesn't bother me at all (except for that you have to click it twice to show the contents), but I was wondering what causes this. Thought I'd ask you because you're the formatting guru. — ßottesiηi (talk) 00:29, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Redirects
Hello there Sango, I was wondering if I could steal some of your wisdom; am I allowed to create a user page redirect to myself? As my current signature (Mopper) may confuse newcomers. However, I checked the logs and there is already a User:Mopper, albeit with no contribs. Should I go ahead and do it or just change my signature? Thanks! Mopper Speak! 22:33, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
- Well, nobody as of yet, but a new user may mistake me for the "fake" one :P. I don't think I'll request for the user to be usurped, as changing my signature is much easier. Thanks again, Mopper Speak! 22:50, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
- Done! :) Master of Puppets Your will is mine. 22:52, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Master of Puppets has bopped you on the top with a mop! Bops promote not only WikiLove, but also steady loss of brain cells! Hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the Moppage by bopping someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend, and help the chief MoP achieve his goal of world domination. Happy editing! Master of Puppets Your will is mine. 01:00, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Logical Coding Language AfD
Thanks for deleting Logical Coding Language, but I nominated Logical Cascading Language, a copy of the deleted article, along with it...if there's not some reason why you decided to delete one but not the other, could you delete that as well? Nick8325 18:50, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

For that revert and block. If he comes again it might get s/p thats 3 times it looks like now.--Dakota ~ 19:43, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] EWS23's RfA
Hi Sango! I was honored to have your support at my request for adminship. I've always admired your edits from afar, and I look forward to working with you more in the future. If you ever see anything I could do better, please leave me a message. EWS23 | (Leave me a message!) 03:54, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
P.S.- Mopper and I were trying to redesign my userpage, but we've kind of been lazy on it recently. I was wondering if you would be willing to team up with him and get it completed? You can see our mess at User:EWS23/sandbox. We originally tried to model it loosely on your user page, but now I'd probably like it to be more like Highway's (though you're welcome to be creative!). If you're willing to take on this project, leave me a message and I'll let you know a few things I do/don't want. If you feel you're too busy to take this on, I certainly understand. Thanks!
- EWS23 is being way to kind; I made an effort at the beginning and then kinda shrivelled off. I'd gladly help, that is if I can make myself move over to that page. I'll await your opinion though, I'd probably just get in the way if you guys wanted to redesign. >_< Master of Puppets That's hot. 04:00, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply Sango. No worries, exams should be your top priority. However, if you do get around to messing with it, I'll just give you an idea of what I'd like. I'd like to avoid hiding the information (such as via show/hide buttons, or moving stuff to subpages), except for the stuff that is only for my use only (such as my current section, "frequently used code"). I'd probably like either a blue theme (like I vaguely attempted to do on the sandbox), or a green theme (which I currently kind of have on my talk page). While I mentioned Highway's page as a possible model, if you have other layouts or designs you'd like to implement, I certainly would welcome you to be as creative as you'd like. :o) Well, that's about it. Thanks again for all your help, and good luck with finals! EWS23 | (Leave me a message!) 23:41, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Barnstar for fighting with vandals.
Hello, Sango123. I want to award you pretty star because you always fight with vandalism.
The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar | ||
Hi, Sango123. It's me Daniel. I have wanted to give you this pretty barnstar because you always protect the article from vandalism. Basically, it means fighting with vandalisms. Anyways, Keep working on article for catching vandalism. Anyways, I'm glad that you always catch vandalism everyday, and also very nice Wikipedian as much as Adult Wikipedian. Even though you are 14 years old, you always do great great job. You would be inspiration in Wikipedia. Daniel5127, 03:17, 26 May 2006 (UTC) |

[edit] A newbie making "forward" page
Hi Sango123. Thank you for leaving me a message. It is really nice of you to help newbies into the wiki community. Of course, as I am a newcomer, I don't know how to do anything fancy. I recently edited the page Chevalier de Méré, only to find that the man's real name was Antoine Gombaud. As you can see, the link to his real name goes nowhere. How does one edit a page to forward a user to the information? In this case it might be necessary to move 'Chevalier de Méré' to 'Antoine Gombaud,' and then have a link to 'Antoine Gombaud' at 'Chevalier de Méré.' Thank you again for being so helpful and friendly. --Topquark170GeV 03:44, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Remember me? For some reason, my talk page is messed up (likely my fault, but I do get vandals). The section edit buttons are not working correctly. You have any idea how to fix it? I would hate to have to undo the nice template you have set for me there. Kukini 17:16, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for being so helpful in letting me fight vandals. I have not been on here long enough to become an admin, but I fight vandalism as best I can. It helps alot to have an admin that pays attention to active vandals and blocks them. HighInBC 17:46, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Earlier today you have warned the above user about vandalism. The user is having an ongoing attack on the Huddersfield article, requiring several reverts to have been done.

[edit] Multiracial Americans
If this decision was made to KEEP this category, how did it come to be deleted (and all references to it autodeleted), until I re-established it today? Thanks Hmains 19:53, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
- Since you have now deleted everything again, I cannot referenece what I clearly read: you writing KEEP and nearly every vote posted for KEEP. Too bad. I don't think I was looking at a different page. Thanks Hmains 20:59, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
-
- In order to find this, I had to re-create Multiracial Americans again, which you can delete again if you have to. It was the article 'Multiracial', not a category, in which you said KEEP, matching what most of voters said. Thanks Hmains 21:38, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

-
- Yes, I understand the category and article pages and votes are different and that I originally mis-read the referenced page. Thanks Hmains 21:54, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Hello Sango. Thank you for your unreserved support at my request for adminship which ended at the overwhelming and flattering result of (160/1/0), and leaves me in a position of having to live up to a high standard of community expectation. You can see me in action and observe what then happened as a result. Naturally, if I make any procedural mistakes, feel free to point them out. I look forward to working with you in the future.
