DUE TO SCHOOL (...GROAN...) I MUST DIVERT MY FOCUS FROM WIKIPEDIA QUITE OFTEN BUT WILL CHECK IN EVERY NOW AND THEN. I'M SORRY IF I TAKE SO LONG TO REPLY.
[edit] Smile Sir james paul 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. Happy editing! By the way, keep up your good work here. --Sir james paul 22:57, 2 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Thanks for the smileHey, thanks for the smile! --Deathphoenix ʕ 02:44, 3 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] "Signatures", not "Signature's"Hi Why, thanks for the smile. Also you should change the link in your signature from User:Why1991/Signature's to User:Why1991/Signatures (it's a common mistake; see [1]). —Quarl (talk) 2007-01-03 03:23Z [edit] Your Sig...is too long per WP:SIG. I would recommend removing the custom typefaces and the links to Esperanza. JorcogaYell! 06:24, 3 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Signpost updated for January 2nd, 2007.

Geo. 18:45, 3 January 2007 (UTC) The deletion policy allows recreation if the reasons for deletion are dealt with. Go to User:Geo.plrd/Phoenix. If you have ideas feel free to implement them. i am currently trying to recruit members of Esperanza Geo. 06:02, 4 January 2007 (UTC) Hi, I read about your concerns on Esperanza. Perhaps you'd liket o add this userbox to your userpage? {{User:Feureau/UserBox/EsperanzaReturns}}
[edit] re: QueryThe MfD for the Mystery game resulted in No Consensus. The closing admin marked the page inactive, and stated that if you wanted to start another game, you should focus on "one that directly benefits readers or editors in a manner directly related to the encylopedia".--Ed ¿Cómo estás?Reviews? 14:58, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] your first signing
 [edit] SignaturesThanks for shortening your signature. A template isn't the most efficient way to do it, but as long as it's shorter, all is well. As for my sig, it does not consist of any images. Spade is the unicode character U+2660. ♠ SG →Talk 03:48, 5 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] MysteryWhich userbox? The first, second or third one? Cheers to 2007! User:Sp3000 04:26, 5 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] WikipediaIs it just me or is Wikipedia having problems? Cheers to 2007! User:Sp3000 05:54, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks for the BarnstarAnytime, good sir. I also notice that we patronise FPC often. It's probably coincidence that Andonic, Arjun, you, me and perhaps a few others we know, but I forgot whom, vote in FPC. Oh, and just a little note...the Fighterbay has been constructed. It's pretty small now, though, and it isn't really worth looking at if you're in a hurry...and I also noticed that a lot of featured picture candidates have popped up during my absence...probably another coincidence...ah well. -- Altiris Exeunt 09:22, 5 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Your signatureHello there, I was wondering if you would please modify your signature to conform to the guidelines laid out at Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages. The general guidelines are that signatures shouldn't contain images, they shouldn't contain unnecessary internal links or any external links, and they shouldn't be unnecessarily long in Wiki source. The reasoning for this final bit is that overly long signatures tend to overwhelm the actual comments in edit mode, making it hard to track down and respond to specific comments. You can fix your signature by removing any images and external links, any unnecessary links (like links to Wikipedian organizations, articles, or subpages in userspace), and removing excessive color, font, and formatting code. Thank you. --Cyde Weys 19:10, 5 January 2007 (UTC) Adding on to Cyde's comment, templates aren't allowed either (unless you subst them). You should also remove the link to EA because it is now an essay about its days of being an organisation. JorcogaYell! 13:25, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
I agree. It would be best to just shorten your sig. Oh and Brenneman, if you did something like that, it seems to me like it would violate WP:POINT. Tennis DyNamiTe (sign here) 23:28, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
I've shortened it slightly, but I can't get it legal (changed the font for the supped bit, changed the color codes (they'll still turn out the same), removed Esperanza and removed the tag that makes the writing bigger than the writing around it. But, I'll remind you, it's STILL illegal. JorcogaYell! 00:06, 13 January 2007 (UTC) /* Looks at Why1991's contribritions, sees message is not getting through */ Are you aware the the developers actually made a software change to stop people doing what you do? Ignoring the most powerful force in the wiki-verse is a really bad idea... So, while I am under normal circumstance playing the "good cop" in the Cyde/brenneman duality, I'm willing to make an exception: If you use the templated signature again, I will block you until you foreswear doing so. I'm aware that's unpleasant, but sweetness and light seems to be doing very little good. You have not even taken the time to participate in this discussion. - brenneman 12:23, 13 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] My buddy UserboxDo you like the new userbox I added? Thanks for being my buddy... Anyway, visit my slightly improved Userpage... :)And thx for the barnstar!! Littleghostboo[ talk ] 07:02, 6 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] ESPERANZAHow do I join Esperanza? And may I know how to get the Wikipedia signpost? BTW, your random word is really hard to find...Littleghostboo[ talk ] 08:07, 6 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Your GameThis time, no, I'll not MFD your game, and want to give you props (hey I can use street speak) on making a much better, more encyclopedic game. Though userboxes are frowned upon by many (I myself am relatively neutral, I don't have them because they're clutter, IMO) I think you're helping people to learn how to make templates and whatnot. Just make sure everyone knows to keep working hard on the encyclopedia :) DoomsDay349 03:20, 7 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] MenuHi, I'm rather sorry, I used your menu template on my user page, without asking permission. Is it ok if i use it, modify it, and c=give you credit for the original menu, with additions by me? Sorry! Shealer 18:34, 7 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Thanks!My walnut picture was promoted!

Ralbot 07:11, 9 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Thanks!Thanks for liking my userbox. By the way, the paradox is like this: "Can an omnipotent being (someone who can do anything) create something too heavy for him to lift (he can lift anything, but he can create anything)? So the answer? Who knows. :-) With Cu |8 er, I thought you meant User:Cute 1 4 u (a sock). By the way, here's the definition of "leet", and I don't see anything about computer talk. Explanation please? | AndonicO Talk | Sign Here 13:01, 11 January 2007 (UTC) Your sentence: I prefer not to use computer talk myself or slang in real life, because I like to try to be as sophistcated and formal as possible when talking as you can tell by my expansive vocabulary in this sentence, but sometimes my environment gets the better of me. can be improved. My improved version: I would rather not, if possible, type in computer slang, or it's real life varient, myself, as I enjoy sophistcation, as well as formality, when speaking; this, you may clearly realize while reading these sentences, as you may, if you so choose, tell by the advanced vocabulary in the phrases. Alas! my surroundings often reduce me to nothing but a street scoundrel; peer pressure comes upon me as if a bolt of lightning... I collapse. I would add another devilish grin here, but passers bys might think I'm mad. :-) AndonicO Talk · Sign Here 13:06, 12 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] And then he said:I'm BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With it, I hope we can truly make Wikipedia a better place.

You opposed the original image due to the duplicate people. An edit has been created which removes this issue, so I was wondering whether this would change your opinion? Raven4x4x 07:54, 12 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] SignatureWould you mind setting your signature on your Special:Preferences? Thanks--Ed ¿Cómo estás?Reviews? 00:03, 13 January 2007 (UTC) When he used to do that, it was twice the legal limit of WP:SIG:(.

I'm not sure what the problem is, but I can't seem to size down images to 40px for use... Please point out what I'm doing wrong here: {{Userbox|red|white|40px|[[Image:Example.jpg]]|Some random text}} ??? I would really really appreciate it ;,,; Happy New Year!FF7Freakzorz 06:00, 13 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Your signatureThe line break isn't allowed per Wikipedia:Sign_your_posts_on_talk_pages#Appearance_and_colour. Looking at your recent contribs it looks like you may have just changed it but I just wanted to make sure you correct this --frothT 23:41, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Littleghostboo's UserpageCare to come to see my newly created Userpage? It's pretty nice (I really don't wanna boast, but please give me comments on my talk page and sign my signiture book please!)... And the competition has changed a bit already... Littleghostboo[ talk ] 03:32, 3 March 2007 (UTC) [edit] I'm gatheringThat you're unclear on the implications of the templated signature. The thing that makes me think this is that you blanked the template without changing any of the places it is linked, thus futzing up talk page discussions all over the shop. You do understand that templates are live substititution? That blanking the template blanks it everywhere you used it? I'm sorry if there is some hostility/misunderstanding/whatever here, but perhaps we can start from scratch. If the following is insulting because you know it already, please forgive me:
brenneman 01:17, 15 January 2007 (UTC) Actually, Why., contrary to the message you left on Aaron's talk page, your sig does go against one guideline: the writing is bigger than that around it. JorcogaYell! 09:49, 15 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Happy Wikipedia Day!
  On January 15, 2007, Wikipedia turned six-years-old. According to statistics, Wikipedia has around 1,500,000 articles and Wikipedians have made 104,000,000 edits. The millionth article was Jordanhill railway station, created on March 2, 2006. Wikipedia has moved from an Alexa rank of 20 to a rank of 12 having already briefly visited rank 8 (current rank).
