Hi, I see you've added the {{helpme}} tag. Can I help you with something? --Pilot|guy (roger that) 20:58, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AfD

You've put up a couple articles fro deletion today, but seem to be struggling a bit with the complexity of the process. I've bookmarked Template:AfD in 3 steps, it spells each step out rather well and should help you. Also, Dead weight and Ranjani Shanker meet the Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion, so AfD isn't really needed. In fact, I've already gotten Dead weight deleted via speedy delete. Good luck editing...feel free to ask me for any help. -- Scientizzle 18:21, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dead weight for my completion of your AfD. -- Scientizzle 18:26, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ugh-free Spelling

I've updated your prod tag with some reasoning and applied {{db-nonsense}}. You're right that the article is essentially useless. -- Scientizzle 19:04, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, Wikipedia is now Ugh-free Spelling-free...the article has been rightfully deleted. Thanks for the tip. -- Scientizzle 19:58, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome Substitution

When using the {{welcome}} template or any other in welcoming users, it is important to substitute the template by putting {{subst:welcome}} for exapmle. — ßottesiηi (talk) 23:14, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

No problem. I'll go through your contributions and fix some of them. — ßottesiηi (talk) 23:17, 7 June 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Hello to you to :D

Hello hello, thanks for the info but I allready knew about these things (the 4~) I read about it before I made my account :D (Budapestonline 23:31, 7 June 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Help Please

Hi, it's not urgent but if anyone can help me out with formatting my User Page, it would be a great help, I'm having some trouble.

Thanks in advance, Vaniac 03:19, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi there. I think it's the boxes giving you trouble. Would you like them in a userbox bracket, as in my page? Teke 03:30, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
My pleasure. As mentioned above, use subst: to any templates you add to your userspace. I'm behind in doing it to all my boxes and templates (actually, I may get to it now that you got me thinking about it). Teke 03:35, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
There you go. I didn't substitute so you can see it. Now go through and add subst to the boxes and the boxtop and bottom, show preview to make sure they work, and save. Go and look at the source; it'll be the HTML markup. Pretty neat stuff. Teke 03:39, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Barnstar

Why thank you very much, it's my first. I'm happy to see that you've had helpful experiences overall with the project. Happy editing to you! Teke 03:56, 9 June 2006 (UTC)


[edit] A short Esperanzial update

As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AfD

I see you have been told before. You still have not worked out that AfD needs three steps - see the advice above. Two2 Cricket was speediable anyway and I have done that. But you should complete the AfD for Kino precision. -- RHaworth 15:03, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Hello Vaniac. What do you need help with? --KFP (talk | contribs) 10:51, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Ok, it should be fixed now. Cheers, --KFP (talk | contribs) 11:07, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Citing sources

Haven't cited sources on wikipedia before, can someone help me out. I have a link to a news article and know where I would like to put the citation but I'm not sure how to. Thanks. Vaniac 20:10, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

You can look at the page for citing sources. I recommend using footnotes. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 20:13, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
