[edit] Venom, chocolate and crisps.

Basically, the thing I removed said he needed to eat chocolate, crisps or brains.

At the very least, that would need some heavy-duty sourcing for me to leave it in. - SoM 23:10, 15 January 2006 (UTC)


Replied on your talk page, let's keep the discussion there for convience's sake.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Punisher-Symbiote.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Punisher-Symbiote.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 02:02, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Venom (comics)

Thanks so much for your compromise effort on Venom. I had planned on eventually writing some sort of compromise, but I was holding off on being bold in the hope that some of the details could be hammered out. Nice job! --MikeJ9919 06:39, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:Qwark.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Qwark.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images.

If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

[edit] WP:REDSPOILER

I think you wanted a template, so I moved this to {{redspoiler}}. -Amarkov blahedits 04:52, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you! It works now as {{REDSPOILER}}. I was going for something more noticable than the regular spoiler warning.--Viridis 05:09, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

[edit] helpme

Is there a way to see who's using a Template or Userbox, like how Image pages show what pages the image is used on?

There's the "What links here" link. Also, many userboxes are also categories, so viewing the category shows users who are using those userboxes. If that makes any sense. —Keakealani 06:41, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
Thank you. How can I see "What links here?"? I do not see it as an option here:Template:REDSPOILER--Viridis 06:45, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
Nevermind, I found it in the toolbox--Viridis 06:45, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userbox

Hey, thanks for the great userbox idea ("No Soup For You!"). I'll have to make one. 'J Klein my talk my contributions 16:10, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Coincidentally, I got the season seven (the one with the Soup Nazi and the Invitations among others) DVD for Christmas!

How about "Bosco!" or "This user got this userbox as a regift"?

....."Hello, Newman"?

[edit] My-Space Userbox

Hi there, I've seen your Userbox about My Space on the User box submissions Page Here and I believe it may go against Wikipedia Userbox Policy, if you want to be sure see about whether it's allowed see Here. I'm not saying that you should delete it, I am just saying that you should maybe ask the advice of an Administrator, you can choose an Category which best suits these Circumstances Here. Sorry and I don't want this to turn in to a dispute; I am just trying to help because somebody else may choose to delete it without Messaging you like I did. Cheers and I hope you had a Merry Christmas.

Respectfully.....TellyaddictTalk 14:11, 26 December 2006 (UTC)


Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I'll ask around--Viridis 03:21, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
The only potential problem I see is with the, "Userboxes must not be intentionally inflammatory or divisive" clause. Even that only becomes an issue if there are significant populations of 'people who hate MySpace' and 'people who are offended by hatred of MySpace'. Personally, I'm indifferent to/ignorant of MySpace (I've heard it is a social networking site) and can't imagine why anyone would either hate OR love it... so I'd assume there isn't a problem. If there are alot of strong feelings about MySpace such that this userbox might spawn arguments or cause 'MySpace lovers' to be less likely to work with you then it'd probably be a good idea to take it down. --CBD 11:32, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
Apologies to competely turn the conversation on its head, but i was wondering if there was a Bebo hating userbox along the lines of the one you have for Myspace....--SteelersFan UK06 08:55, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] For now

No complaints so far, and a couple dozen users. I'll leave it for now.--Viridis 21:44, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] wikinews opinion tab

[this is a little belated. should of been from jan 18, 2007] Hi I saw your post. Its not exactly new, just very contreversal, and gets readded, and unadded a lot. If your curious, see n:Wikinews:Commentary pages on news events. Its supposed to be a space for people to rant about the article, as the talk namespace is supposed to be reserved for discussing making the article. happy editing. Bawolff 02:27, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, I was very curious about that.--Viridis 02:35, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Index

Say I want to find out what subpages exist for a user's space. Is there something to do that?--Viridistalk|contributions 16:20, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

There certainly is, just type the username into here and it will display all the subpages of that user. Kind Regards - Tellyaddict 16:54, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Thank you!--Viridistalk|contributions 19:01, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spore

If Nintendo DS is definite, put a reference there. And keep the 'possibly all current handhelds and consoles'. Mrmoocow 09:52, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

I feel uneasy about the wording of 'possibly all current handhelds and consoles'. It feels a little too uncertain for Wikipedia.--Viridistalk|contributions 10:54, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Oops, without realizing I already replied here, I talked about a source for the DS statement on your talk page... which you probably already know, hehe.--Viridistalk|contributions 11:32, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] User:Viridis/Sandbox

See my comments on the page. — Deon555talkdesksign here! 01:22, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

A new supply of glass was discovered today as a sandbox was destroyed- the molten sand raining down over surrounding namespaces. No injuries have been reported and the namespaces have reported as "shinier".--Viridistalk|contributions 04:28, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Symbiote (comics)

This is the dude who asked about the symbiotes weakness and expanding lengths I didnt want to start another title so I just put it under Venom [moved by Viridis]. Anyways Thanks for helping but if you look back there is one more question I had so if you could look at it on the discussion page and help me i would appreciate it alot!

Replied to on the talk page.--Viridistalk|contributions 17:34, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My userpage

Thanks. :3 If you're just talking about the navframes, I used Misza13's NavFrame, and used her example here for a base. For the main title thing, I actually used an example I found on another page, and changed around the colours. If you'd like to use it, I've created a template for my header here. Just replace all instances of Blast_san to Viridis. :) Blast 06.04.07 0441 (UTC)
