[edit] Invite

You are cordially invited to participate in Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity, a project dedicated to improving articles related to Christianity. At this stage, we are discussing prospects for the project, and your input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

You look like you are VERY busy, but I am trying to invite as many as possible. --WillMak050389 20:03, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Trading Spaces and WP:UPH

I know you said it was alright if the two projects were merged on Esperanza's talk, but I was waiting for an "offical" message from yourself or an objection before I went ahead and merged. So, is there any real reason not to merge yet? — The King of Kings 20:06, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Ok. :-) Cheers! — The King of Kings 20:27, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Just letting you know I merged it, left a note on the Esperanza programs page about the move and told everybody who was currently envloved in a renovation about the merge. Cheers! — The King of Kings 22:33, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gibraltar

Hello Celestian Power:

I would like to ask you a favour. Could you please have a look at the talk page and history of the article on Gibraltar. Over the past few months a number of users, including myself, have been in conflict with user:Gibnews. We feel he has taken over the page as his pet project and has imposed a NPOV pro-Gibraltarian point of view. I feel his attitude and utter refusal to acheive any form of consensus is contrary to the rules of wikipedia. He accuses everyone of Spanish propaganda even on issues which are not directly related to the Anglo-Spanish dispute over Gibraltar and reverts pretty much everything which is not written by himself. Although I am not Spanish, I sometimes wonder if I may be slightly biased towards the Spanish perspective. I do not however believe that Gibraltar should be Spanish and I try to remain as neutral as possible. I do not have a problem with Gibnew's views. I simply do not approve of his way of discarding other people's sources, opinions etc... You should perhaps consult other users for their opinions such as user:ecemaml and user:asterion.

That is why I ask you, as an English-man, to mediate or atleast give your perspective on this issue.

Please look at the talk page over the past few months. Conflict with user Gibnews seems to go a long way back.

Thankyou very much for your help. We would really appreciate it. There is nothing worse that when articles are hijacked by individuals with political agendas.

[edit] AOL

Don't pull those 15 min blocks. we don't have any other way to deal with the problem.Geni 13:55, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User Page

Your user page is cool, im new to Wikipedia and would like to know how you get a cool user page like that, regards Poke Master (Talk • Contribs) 15:55, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your help, it worked great, I also browsed the community and found out about userboxes too, thanks, Poke Master (Talk • Contribs) 18:49, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Esperanza elections

My dear Celestianpower, once again you give me too much credit. :D However, I was considering running, and believe I will do so. Thank you so much for your confidence, it means quite a lot. -- Natalya 18:58, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

*blushes* :) Have a pretty tree in my thanks for your kind words. -- Natalya 19:12, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

"I will step down as Admin Gen."

Eh??!? I think not, my friend! For I am sure you will certainly be put right back there. :) -- Natalya 04:50, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Maybe so, but you're the one with experience, and kept us all together during the issues. Don't count on not doing it quite yet! -- Natalya 12:18, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gym Leaders

Hello again, just like to tell you that all the Kanto Gym Leaders have been merged to List of Kanto Gym Leaders, regards Poke Master (Talk • Contribs) 19:51, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Manchester meetup

What's our next move? Thanks. —Xyrael _{/ 14:05, 23 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] Thanks

Thank you for the "Esperanzial update". Mr. Turcotte^talk 18:32, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pokémon

Thank you for giving me an idea, I think that it could already make a good enough article, but if you think improvements are need, please tell me, regards Poke Master (Talk • Contribs) 18:59, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Court

A court has opened at User:Poke Master/Court for Iloveminun and HighwayCello to find out who is guilty, I would suggest you be involved. Poke Master (Talk • Contribs) 12:00, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Meowth

Right, I made a mess up of my last FA, so this time im going to ask others if I should proceed to FA. So would you think Meowth is good enough to be at good article status? Poke Master (Talk • Contribs) 15:10, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:Helicoptor

Helicoptor is now making a frivolous request to move aluminium to aluminum. See Talk:Aluminium. He seems to have a history of this kind of thing, see Talk:Cat flap Jooler 17:50, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pokémon Episode

Sorry about that, I just suggested that because I noticed there were other articles about episodes, should we delete those Pokesaur 19:49, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Signature

Thanks- I think that was my original code, but for some reason when I saved it it pasted HTML into the text of the article!

I have sinced altered it to rid the signature of the <font> tags.

I tried that, but for some reason it won't work when I save it in "preferences" at the moment. I may try it tomorrow- for some reason, in my experience, it works some days and others not. EVOCATIVEINTRIGUE TALKTOME | EMAILME | IMPROVEME 21:04, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Scratch that, fourth try it worked! EVOCATIVEINTRIGUE TALKTOME | EMAILME | IMPROVEME 21:05, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Thanks for your cheering up, Celesitianpower! I really appreciate it. And Debussy is really fantastic - I'm particularly a Clair de Lune fan. (Though really, who isn't? ;) -- Natalya 11:36, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

		For all your contributions to the Pokémon Collaborative Project, you are awarded a barnstar, Minun (talk) 17:21, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question about suspected spam user

I noticed a new user that had no edits except for their talk page which seems to be a description of their band and a link to the band's page. Is this a violation of Wikipedia policy, and if so, what should I do about it (I can tell you the username if you need it)? Thanks in advance for the help - Mirage5000 19:01, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] IRC op

Hey CP, when you have some free time, you think it's possible you could give me level 10 access (so I can give myself ops) in the #wikipedia-esperanza? if you don't have it perhpas you could hunt down someone who has. People have been asking for kicks, etc in there and was wondering if you might consider giving me access. Thanks --Pilot|guy 02:21, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Apparently it can only be given to the advisory council, etc, not sure if this is still the case. --Pilot|guy 02:22, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi Pilotguy, Celestianpower is on a holiday so I'll take the liberty of answering your question... We decided a while ago that ops were going to be restricted to current and past advisory council members and the admin general. Therefore, after the elections, we'll have a new group of people with ops to add to the list. Should that not be enough for practical purposes, we'll have a look at expanding it. --JoanneB 08:54, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
