Wikipedia:Userboxes. I guess you just can create userboxes by creating the correct page name. Creating a Wikipedia article (Wikipedia:______), etc. For userboxes, I am not sure. I would not worry about a BCA userbox, though. Not many would use it. You can create it if you want. Just a note: please put everything you create onto your watchlist. If you have questions, feel free to post a message. -- Andy W. (talk/contrb.) 15:40, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WP:LAVT and WP:POP

The two links will direct you to the popups you saw I had and the "Filter Recent Changes" I showed you. I hope this will help. However, I don't recommend you installing them in your monobook.js yet; get some edits first. Don't depend on these tools, though. I was almost addicted to them and then I finally broke the habit. Cheers. -- Andy W. (talk/contrb.) 15:09, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your revision to the Earth page

Please see: Person of the Year. Mikhail Gorbachev was the time person of the year in 1987 and 1989, so the template is correct. No offense intended, but I reverted your removal of the infobox as I thought it an inappropriate reason for the change. — RJH (talk) 16:37, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pat Fin

Oh, sure, I truly believe that he deserves the article! However, all our claims about him have to be cited properly. If we can retrieve enough info from the bca website, it's doable. We can say that he earned his doctorate by cataloging works of Ralph Shapey (or I think). I'm sure his "biography" is on the site somewhere. — Andy W. (talk/contrb.) 04:17, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

I corrected your spelling of Finley; good thing you didn't start the article yet. Oh, I hope you are watching your User:Functionofxy/Desk/PDF page. Create your "desk" and link to your "PDF" page!
