[edit] Regarding renovation of user page

[edit] Renovation

Hello there, I am happy to help you with a renovation of your Userpage. I have a list of interesting Userpages here, look through the list and decide which one you like. Happy editing. AxG (talk) (guest book) 12:36, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Response to your "Please fix my page" request

Try User:SMcCandlish/TempVoxRationalis (and yeah, that was a typo; sorry about that). If you like that, you can just cut the code out of it and replace your user page. The fixes: Merged the right sidebars (put Babel stuff at top, because this is recommended), and introduced some space between your gadgets. The results (for me, anyway) are that the gadgets now no longer overlap each other as they sometimes were before. Hope this is helpful and responsive to what you might have thought the problems with the page were. When you are done with my temp page, please blank it so that I will know I can delete it. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 19:36, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Did it help? — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 01:13, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Renovation

I've renovated your user and talk pages. Do you like it (please reply on my talk page)? Happy editing, S.D. ¿п? § 14:18, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

I love it! Thanks a lot! I saw several userpages that looked really nice, and I started to get unsatisfied with mine, as it was a bit disorganized, but it looks great now! Thanks again, and thanks for contributing to Wikipedia!--Vox Rationis 02:55, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
You're welcome. Cheers, S.D. ¿п? § 14:01, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding page deletion

[edit] Wikipedia Community

You may want to look at the current version of the article and consider revising your opinion since the current version has multiple reliable sources including a note about a notable award the community has recieved. JoshuaZ 02:14, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, you're right. I did a little de-stub work one time on a wiki-fix up project a while ago, but I think here I got a little de-stub happy. But anyways, I think it was all the references that threw me. Sorry about that. Also I guess I like the article, as long as it stays neutral and referenced. And I was also thinking that the last thing we want is it sprawling with anecdotes and mentions of specific users per WP:SELF. Danski14 04:41, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

No, can't say I'm involved with the LRC, thats with the architecture school. I actually don't know much about it, other then it's one of the top research centers in that field. Danski14 04:44, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, I just looked on their webpage, I guess it actually extends quite beyond architecture. Cool! Danski14 04:46, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding redirects

[edit] Lycée redirects

Please do not change links that go to Lycée to go directly to Secondary education in France#Lycée. Maintaining links to the redirect page at 'Lycée' are useful for future expansion; if, at some point, 'Lycée' is made into an article, other articles will already link there. The same applies to all redirects that go to specific sections within articles (as you have refined the Lycée redirect); these are known as 'Redirects with possibilities', and most of them are tagged with the template {{R with possibilities}}. Bastin 21:17, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

There's nothing wrong with the Lycée page as you have refined it (i.e. making it go directly to that section). In fact, this is a vast improvement on before. However, as you have made that change, there is no need to then edit the individual articles that go to the page 'Lycée', as they already automatically redirect as required. If possible, could you please revert your edits to articles that previously linked to 'Lycée'? Cheers. Bastin 21:34, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
Great, but please DO continue to edit the redirects themselves to make them more specific. IMO, the general inadequacy of redirects (and their categorisation; see Wikipedia:Template messages/Redirect pages) is one of the major flaws in Wikipedia, and lets down both the browsing non-Wikipedian and the expert editor alike. Bastin 21:41, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding controversies

[edit] Chappaquiddick

Why on earth would you intentionally remove accepted facts about Ted Kennedy waiting 10 hours to report this accident to the police? This is supposed to be a non-biased encyclopedia. I see that you are a pre-democrat, or whatever. I hope your political leanings haven't gotten in the way of the quest for truth and fairness. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.121.153.237 (talk) 18:28, 3 March 2007 (UTC).

Fine. Sometimes when we cut and paste(lazily) instead of typing, we make mistakes of repeating lines. So I apologize for that. But, since there was no original explanation for you deleting my post, including the very important 10 hour lapse entry, I could only assume that your profile about being a democrat had to do something with your editing choice. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.121.153.237 (talk) 18:41, 3 March 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Thanks!

RE: Thank you for retracting your comments; I believe we have come to an agreement. --Haizum μολὼν λαβέ 04:06, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding new users

[edit] Welcome message

Hi there, I was wondering if you welcome messages were placed by a bot, or if they were manual? Just wonder because you welcomed a user who's first (and only) contributions have all been vandalism! [1] -- Chuq 06:18, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Admin coaching

You signed up for a coach. I'm available. I do have just a few conditions though, and they are that you...

  1. don't go for your RfA or accept an RfA nomination until I think you are ready.
  2. take the advice provided by me and your fellow students to heart (this will be a group effort)
  3. display the template {{VC assignments}} somewhere on one of your user pages where you can access it easily (at or near the top of your talk page is a pretty good place).

If you agree, I'll set up a section for you on the Virtual classroom, and we can get started.

I look forward to your reply. The Transhumanist   04:52, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome to the Virtual classroom

Glad to have you aboard. A coaching section has been set up for you at User:The Transhumanist/Virtual classroom#Vox Rationis. Your initial assignments are ready and waiting for you there. Have fun. The Transhumanist   16:25, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] monobook and message

Thanx for the update regarding the prank boxes. It's fine, they weren't really a big deal to me. I just was looking around and saw your monobook. Is it good? The code seems long so I though it would be good, but I can't seem to get it to work? Could you give me advice? You probably know where my monobook is. Thanks in advance.--Randalllin 03:47, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey, check this out...

[edit] Preparing the next VC lesson

Thank you! The Transhumanist    09:06, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Friendly Comment

I just wanted to say great job on your contributions. I read your talk page and for your age, Wikipedia needs more people like you. Keep up the good work, man. Signed by Tommy Image:Misc-tpvgames.gif (Talk/Contribs) 11:11, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Super-fans of Supercentenarians

Greetings,

It seems that a few geek fans of supercentenarians have gotten out of hand, creating articles when there is no information at all about someone (i.e. Walter Richardson. I'm all for telling a story about some 113-year-old, but when the story isn't there (maybe the family wanted privacy?), I don't think we should go out and make an 'everstub' with no chance of growing.→ R Young {yakłtalk} 03:30, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] J0806

Hey there, not really an astro-physicist, but I cleaned up this page when it was newly added. The image that you have uploaded as being public domain because it is from NASA may well not be. It was an Astronomy Picture of the Day- check the NASA tag, they could well be copyrighted. Are you certain that this one wasn't? J Milburn 12:15, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Aha, I see you are right. For instance, this one says "Credit & Copyright: Miloslav Druckmuller (Brno University of Technology)", where as the one we are talking about says "Credit: Tod Strohmayer (GSFC), CXC, NASA - Illustration: Dana Berry (CXC)" and so is not copyrighted. Happy editing! J Milburn 20:24, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
