[edit] WikiProject Rugby League

Hi SpecialWindler. I've noticed you've made use of the rugby league player infobox on some of the Brisbane Broncos players, and I would like to extend an invitation for you to join WikiProject Rugby league if you'd like to. Basically what we do is organise rugby league articles in general, including standards for templates, styles and other entries, and in the future collaborating articles in order to get them to featured article status. There are no prerequisites for joining, and you don't even have to actively participate if you don't want to. But if you would like to join, just add your name to the list of participants and that's it. If you have any further questions just let me know on my talk page.

As a side note, I've made some minor edits to your infobox additions. Just take note of the things I've changed and try and keep them as a standard when adding new infoboxes. It's more of a Wikipedia policy that anything else, and it makes sure that every page making use of the infobox is the same. Cheers, --mdmanser 04:14, 5 October 2006 (UTC) .

[edit] Question

How do you make certain text smaller. I want to make part of a table only 90% text size, i know it can be done but how do you do it?? Thankyou.

You can use <small>text</small> to make small text. You can also use html scripting to change the font size. Although that is a bit more complicated.—WAvegetarian•(talk) 02:43, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bond 22

Re: Edit — Ease up on the attitude. Don't bite the newcomers. --Erik (talk/contrib) @ 20:57, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

It's cool. Just be patient about reverting uncited information. You could insert a comment like <!-- Please do not include cast members unless there has been official confirmation from MGM. --> (copy and paste it) in the Cast section. It won't show up in the article, but if users try to edit it, hopefully they'll see that and stop. --Erik (talk/contrib) @ 21:10, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Shane Perry

It's a contentious issue really. I created the infobox based on its football counterpart, and the style under which it SHOULD be done can be seen at [Template talk:Infobox rugby league biography]]. The real manual of style has the five tildes (~) for the time signoff, but as you say, his last game was on October 1. Personally I normally go by your method and I have done with 99% of the articles so far. But I'm not sure why I used the five tildes in his infobox - perhaps just a brain explosion at the time. Change it back if you want, I'll be using the original (just the date) style from now on anyway. --08:39, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Weird

Why is it when I type - Naomi (James Bond) - in the search that it goes to List of James Bond henchmen when it should go to List of James Bond henchmen in The Spy Who Loved Me.

Don't worry

It has to do with the redirect; most henchmen redirect to the List of henchmen and then you cand find links from there. Cbrown1023 00:21, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome!

I noticed that you've never been welcomed:

Welcome!

Hey, SpecialWindler, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions. I hope you like the site and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful (some of them may sound stupid, but I recommend you check them out):

While editing, please remember:

You should introduce yourself here at the new user log. I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name, the date, and the time.

For your first edits, I suggest searching for articles that you think might interest you. You could also be audacious and try a random page.

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome and happy editing! Cbrown1023 00:21, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Permanent Link

On the left side in the toolbox it has "Pernament Link".


What does this mean?

If you hover the mouse over it, it says "Permanent link to this version of the page." If you click it, you'll notice that the URL in the address bar changes. You can copy that URL and use it as a link so that the link always shows this version of the page. This is used mostly for articles, especially articles that are frequent targets of POV wars. For instance, if you like a particular version of an article and want to be able to easily pull up that version, click Permanent Link, copy the URL and paste it onto your user page. Then when you click that link you'll see your preferred version, regardless of any changes made since that version. SWAdair 10:28, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] James Bond

Nice job with the rowspan. It's made that section a damn sight easier on the eye now. - X201 09:02, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] And more James Bond

Hello, SpecialWindler. When you archive -- or otherwise delete 74,353 bytes from an article -- would you kindly say so in your edit summary? I tho't at first it was blanking (I have the page on watch because it is a favourite target of a particular vandal and his sockcessors). Thanks much. Cheers. --SigPig |SEND - OVER 06:52, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] List of James Bond henchmen in On Her Majesty's Secret Service

{{helpme}} again Why does the template go above the table, i want it around the other way??? on List of James Bond henchmen in On Her Majesty's Secret Service

What template? John Reaves (talk) 01:22, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
In The section Angels of Death there is a passage of writing, then Template:James Bond characters and then a table with 12 pics on it, how do i get the table above the template??? SpecialWindler 09:55, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi SpecialWindler, it appears to have been due to the table code (but I'm not exactly sure why). I have fixed it (you can click here to see what I did - I also altered the heading text and removed the line break), and you might find Help:Tables useful in the future. Happy editing, mattbr30 10:07, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bond girls redirects

Is there some discussion that you're working off of somewhere where it's been decided that Bond girls shouldn't have their own articles? Or are you just making this decision on your own? Dismas|(talk) 13:24, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, what is that all about? Especially silly was List of James Bond girls in The Living Daylights, which consisted solely of Kara Milovy. I've now moved it back, but there are lots of double redirects which I'm not sure I can be bothered to fix. Opera hat 15:48, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Oh, I see. You posted what you thought should happen at Talk:James Bond and since nobody responded, you just went ahead with the change anyway. Dismas|(talk) 16:25, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Which is highly out of process.. we need to undo them.. My talk page has a few responces from him.. EnsRedShirt 07:12, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Fatima Blush is soooo hot! I started her article but merging is fine. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "I've been expecting you" 20:17, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
