Why did you delete it? FellowWikipedian 15:44, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Nathan wanted to. --GeorgeMoney T·C 15:49, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Why? FellowWikipedian 15:55, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
He felt that it made him look like "He is not being Wiki-Like" --GeorgeMoney T·C 16:01, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
It can be seen as assuming bad faith of other editors and it can make people think "Who are they to tell me what I can and can not post?". It's a good idea in principle but not in theory. — Nathan (talk) 18:27, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Note: there's still User:Nathanrdotcom/Filter/Message (and it's talk) to be deleted. Misza13 T C 17:20, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

I guess we should get Nathan to delete it. --GeorgeMoney T·C 17:22, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Yep. I just actually noticed I posted this on the wrong talk page. ;-p I have notified him. Misza13 T C 17:28, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Nathan is right about this. FellowWikipedian 22:55, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] georgemoney

nathan is only getting more and more annoyed with you. I suggest you just leave it alone for a while (you don't have to listen to me though). ILovePlankton ( L) 22:30, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

You're probably right. I just want him to forgive me. --GeorgeMoney T·C 22:35, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Give it time. That's what I've been saying all along. :) — Nathan (talk) 22:37, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Well, will you forgive me for continually asking to forgive me? --GeorgeMoney T·C 22:40, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Grrrrr.... Fine. :p — Nathan (talk) 02:55, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Yes

I want you to host a program that records the history of Wikipedia. General Eisenhower • (at war or at peace) 23:19, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

I want a program that records history of Wikipedia such as who becomes an adminship when, or even the biography of Jimbo Wales or Angela. General Eisenhower • (at war or at peace ☢✍☎☺) 23:22, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Cool. It might be time comsuming. FellowWikipedian 23:31, 28 May 2006 (UTC)


How about a program that lists all stubs. General Eisenhower • (at war or at peace ☢✍☎☺) 23:31, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Just look at Category:Stubs --GeorgeMoney T·C 23:33, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Then, how about a program that lists all userboxes. I can run the program myself from your site. General Eisenhower • (at war or at peace ☢✍☎☺) 23:36, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Category:User templates --GeorgeMoney T·C 23:43, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
How about on all awards not documented on the awards pages? General Eisenhower • (at war or at peace ☢✍☎☺) 00:14, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
That will be easy. General Eisenhower • (at war or at peace ☢✍☎☺) 00:26, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sorry & Thanks

image:wikiThanks.pngI'm so sorry not to have noticed your reversions. Must have been an unlucky set of circumstances that I missed your edits. A big thank you for watching over my page. Cheers. Srikeit(talk ¦ ✉) 01:56, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

I have 1400 pages on my watchlist. --GeorgeMoney T·C 02:01, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Wow, I have only about 800, as any more will take a hell of a long time to come on my slow connection. Srikeit(talk ¦ ✉) 03:00, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
The ironic thing is that half of the pages on my watchlist I don't really care about. --GeorgeMoney T·C 03:50, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] United Editors of Wikipedia

What exactly is this organization?--☆TBC☆ (aka Tree Biting Conspiracy) 04:44, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

I really don't know. --GeorgeMoney T·C 04:45, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spam

May I ask you are a little more civil. Making comments about projects does not generally boost the WikiLove in the community. If you have issues with any publications, I think you should address the matter with them, rather than externally attacking them. I hope you can see this how it is intended,

"Don't worry, the spam isn't bad and annoying like the Esperanza and Community Justice spam. My spam is just news and events."

Thanks! Ian13/talk 13:27, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Can I also ask you remove the link to your shocksite (well, or whatever you call it), titled "Don't click this link!" on your page. I think some editors would not like your loop of JS, and may not know how to escape it. Ian13/talk 13:35, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Ok, I'll remove the link. But I don't know how you could think that saying that "EA spam and CJ spam is annoying" is uncivil. First of all, I said that over two weeks ago. Secondly, people sign up for those projects, and it doesn't say anywhere, "Note: When you sign up for this project, you will get spam!". Third, all spam is annoying, so spam that you didn't know you were going to get is really annoying. Fourth, I could get many people who agree with me in the fact that "colorful, badly formatted, spam is annoying". --GeorgeMoney T·C 15:26, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
On the matter of badly formatted spam, I had to edit the last CJ newsletter (when it was CJ) on almost every member's talk page and fix their formatting. Remember that? Nobody noticed. (Then again, if I didn't do it, I don't know who would've) — Nathan (talk) 09:59, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
Hi George, of course you're allowed to think spam is annoying, and yes, many people agree with you (although many others don't), but regarding point two and three of your argument: here's the way the Esperanza membership page looked like the moment you signed up: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members&oldid=48600191. --JoanneB 15:31, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Well, I guess you're right about that, but what about CJ CCD?--GeorgeMoney T·C 15:35, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
You have the option to unsubscribe. P.S. I replied to you on my RfA Computerjoe's talk 15:49, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Username

Do you think I should change my username? General Eisenhower • (at war or at peace) 16:04, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

No, I like your username. --GeorgeMoney T·C 16:05, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding the article High School Musical 2

When you reverted the vandalism on High School Musical 2 by 71.235.64.130 it reverted it to another vandal's edit (69.138.237.251.) Be careful: sometimes two vandals will strike a page before it is reverted and using the rollback won't work. I fixed it for you but be careful about stuff like that. --Evan Robidoux 16:14, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RE:?

Yeah, I kinda messed up there; he was still on AIV so I went to his userpage and saw the block notices. I checked the block log manually and didn't see any blocks for the user; so, I removed it because I didn't want any AIV admins thinking he was already blocked. However, after checking the block log from the template, I saw that he was in fact blocked, so I reverted myself. Master of Puppets FREE BIRD! 18:20, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:GeorgeMoney/UEW

You shouldn't have closed Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion/User:GeorgeMoney/UEW for two reasons:

  1. Conflict of interest
  2. It hadn't finished, or anywhere near finished

If you wish to close deletion debates, please stick to speedy keeps and those which have ended. Computerjoe's talk 19:06, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

It was obviously keep. --GeorgeMoney T·C 19:08, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
No, it isn't. Consensus may not be reached, which though results in a keep is a different outcome. Also, it is far too early to close. I wouldn't close any AfD or MfD I was involved in for the conflict of interest. Computerjoe's talk 19:12, 29 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Password

What is the password on your Wikipedia website for Internet Explorer users because I want to get there. General Eisenhower • (at war or at peace) 20:59, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] time for a holiday

G'day George,

I think it's time that you started concentrating on those aspects of Wikipedia that aren't Computerjoe. You'll be surprised how many there are. As you two have been continually sniping at each other lately, I am going to enforce a holiday for the two of you: you'll stop using your editing privileges to get at one another, starting now, or you will be deprived of those privileges for a set period of time. We tend to be fairly patient on Wikipedia, but this is not High School, and your constant bickering is counter-productive and unwelcome. Happy editing! fuddlemark (befuddle me!) 22:08, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Fine. I'll go away. First, I need to remove my question on hs RfA. --GeorgeMoney T·C 22:11, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Oh, there's no need to go away. Just ... do something fun, like editing articles, and not something dowdy and dreary, like editing RfAs. Enjoy! fuddlemark (befuddle me!) 22:17, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Ok fine. I'll go and do non Computerjoe-related stuff. But I just don't know why he has to go and try to get one of my subpages deleted because it has "no purpose". I am about to go watch some TV, because my addiction to WP has overridden my addiction to TV and I need to watch some of the shows on my Dvr, and this would be the perfect oppurtunity to finally watch TV after a month. --GeorgeMoney T·C 22:22, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Relax George! You don't have to leave me alone, just please don't prove a point. Computerjoe's talk 08:14, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

After trying to fix the script, I noticed some bugs to other things that I did not catch before. I gave up trying to fix GML. Fotunetely, however, I made an IE revert that looks identical to the regular ones (revert (vandal) and AGF revert) but works slightly differently a while back. I added a case-wise if that switches to IE revert mode for "&" cases, like [1]. I will past it into VoA/monobook shortly.Voice-of-AllTalk 23:26, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

OK, the IP warning thing only appears on IP talk pages now.Voice-of-AllTalk 05:28, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Archive

How do I archive my talk page? FellowWikipedian 23:54, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Copy all of the content (except for the header part) into a page called User talk:FellowWikipedian/archive1. Then you're done! I will do it for you. --GeorgeMoney T·C 00:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Age

Yes, for a while I did not join mainly because I thought I would have to be 13. Then, the day before by 12th birthday, I decided to look at the form. Seeing as it had no age, I joined. ~Linuxerist A/C/E/L/P/S/T/Z 12:34, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage bug

I noticed, and don't know what to do about it; checked the code over and over and its the same in every section, only that one place seems to be cutting off for some reason. Master of Puppets FREE BIRD! 13:01, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Red box

I strongly suggest that you remove the red box at the top of your talk. You're free to comment in my talk page anytime you like, but the asking me to forgive you has to stop. Thanks. — Nathan (talk) 02:08, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

But, I might accedintally ask you. I just don't want to get you more mad. --GeorgeMoney T·C 02:53, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User "edit"

This bug is due to today's unexcpected addition of (edit) links. Does it still rv correctly? Is it just the summary? I'll have a look.Voice-of-AllTalk 03:59, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Now it works perfectly. --GeorgeMoney T·C 04:02, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Yes, it was fixed several hours back, but thanks for pointing this out, I use a similar script myself, so I also notice these things.Voice-of-AllTalk 04:11, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blnguyen's RfA

Hello George. Thank you for your full support and humurous comment at my request for adminship which ended at the overwhelming and flattering result of (160/1/0), and leaves me in a position of having to live up to a high standard of community expectation. You can see me in action and observe what then happened as a result. If you need admin assistance, feel free to ask me. Naturally, if I make any procedural mistakes, feel free to point them out. I look forward to working with you in the future, hopefully as an admin. In the meantime, enjoy the American summer. Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 04:16, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] <span class=votesupport>?</span>

Just curious, what exactly does that do? --Rory096 04:36, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I have set some settings im my monobook.css so when I put that, so it formats my votes. Also, I put something in my monobook.js that puts voting buttons in the custom edit toolbar (next to the redirect button).
If you want to use it put the following in your (monobook).css and you can edit it to your liking:

/* Voting */

.votesupport {

  background-color: lightgreen;
  color: Black;
  fontweight: Bold;

}

.voteoppose {

  background-color: red;
  color: Black;

}

.votekeep {

  background-color: lightblue;
  color: Black;

}


.votedelete {

  background-color: red;
  color: Black;

}

.rfacomment {

  background-color: orange;
  color: Black;

}

.commentimportant {

  background-color: red;
  color: Black;

}

.commentmediumpriority {

  background-color: yellow;
  color: Black;

}

.commentlowpriority {

  background-color: lightgreen;
  color: Black;

}


Also, you can use <div> tags too, not only <span>. Thanks, --GeorgeMoney T·C 04:43, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

That's pretty cool, nifty little tool. --Rory096 04:57, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Another thing you can do to help you find your own comments and votes is put <span class=rory096votesupport>I SUPPORT THIS USER!!!</span>, then it will highlight your votes (if you put the class "rory096votesupport" in your monobook). I have also added a cool new feature by making the borders curved, and I made a user-specific. Look:
/* Voting */
/* Curved Borders */

.votesupport {

  background-color: lightgreen;

I don't understand what you mean. --GeorgeMoney T·C 01:29, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
He means browser toolbar, and I don't understand why he's asking because a quick Google search will show that a Wikipedia toolbar already exists. — Nathan (talk) 00:30, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Hey again. I like the new stuff, makes it easy to change. Thanks, Chuck(척뉴넘) 05:00, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
I could've done that. :P I didn't know you were using mine. — Nathan (talk) 02:38, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
Haha. I took all the glory! Note to all editors: Nobody give Nathan credit for anything :) . But actually, Chuck only got the look from yours. The way I made it had a whole different format that doesn't need a script.--GeorgeMoney T·C 02:39, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] POTD

I was migrating it to my userspace. I thought you were really going to go... If you were there was no point in keeping there. Give or take a couple things, the migration is almost complete. If you'll promise you'll stay, you can begin moving it back... ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 04:05, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Can you please move it back? I can't, because I have disabled my "move" tab, and I am very busy at the moment. --GeorgeMoney T·C 04:06, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
I will later. ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 04:12, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for both making me co-president and finishing the move back. Though I must say the sentence, Well, weather you choose or not, you are still co-president :) was somewhat confusing. :P ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 04:34, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] potd

I like that idea (and user name :). However, we cannot use a non-existant user's userspace, nor is this a suitable enough reason to create the user. I suggest we rename it "Random Picture of the Day" and move it to the Wikipedia namesapce. Then there would be a good enough rationale (seeing as it is random) and it would not be in either space. Wikipedia:Random_picture_of_the_day perhaps? ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 03:54, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

First of all, things in the userspace have the space chance of getting on WP:MFD and Wikipedia namespace things. Secoundly, we can easily write over copyvios. Thirdly, db-owner can only be used if you created the page I believe. ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 04:01, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
Okay. great. :) I'll help in a couple of minutes; I've got to do something first.~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 04:08, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
I have. "Please only use photos that you have taken or drastically modified. Your images must also be under a free license." ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 04:26, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
The standards for things in the Template namespace are getting so strict, I think we should avoid it for now. :( ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 04:27, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Okay, but you were making me look like a bad guy on the mfd. ;P. Anyway, I did suggest that we have a straw poll. ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 02:34, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Yes, it was a bad faith nomination. It will probably not be an issue at this point. ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 02:39, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
We have db-owner on user space, but anything that we would really have to delete could be speedy-deleted. What control are you talking about? I also think we will get a broader audience in the Wikipedia: namespace. ~Linuxerist A/C/E/P/S/T/Z 11:14, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A haiku of thanks

Thanks for your support
In my RfA, which passed!
Wise I'll try to be.

-- Natalya 04:54, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Unfortunetely, for several reasons, that is not really a haiku :D.Voice-of-AllTalk 07:53, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Please, come back

See: User talk:Phaedriel in a while after I leave another message to her. I think it will explain a few things. Cheers! Moe ε 21:41, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Yep, shocked? Moe ε 23:09, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
Why the shock? It's not that surprising to me. ;-) Moe ε 23:11, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
Ha, I fooled you, my objection was complete. ;-) DGX is short form D-Generation X which was always my favorite wrestling group. Thier motto was "you can't tell me what to do" which fits me perfectly. ;-) To whom I told, well, I don't know if they would want me to tell, so I can't answer that until I know they would want me to. Moe ε 23:17, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
Can't tell. But I can tell you I never told MoP, although I wanted to. Moe ε 23:22, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
I did tell AyameIkuyu, but she wasn't included in the five-six people I told. The five-six are pretty active on Wikipedia. Ayame is only real-life friend of mine. Moe ε 05:47, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Not lazy, just extremely busy with exams week. Sorry. :( I'll try to get back to you as soon as I can. Master of Puppets FREE BIRD! 04:23, 4 June 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Hmm. (Copied from Prodego's Talk)

To Prodego: I've apologised on my talk, I really don't think he's going to follow the example. — Nathan (talk) 03:57, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

To Prodego: Nope, I got a 'thank you'. No apology, no nothing. Just a lousy thank you. I have half a mind to tell him to stay the hell off my talk page in future (I will not because it's incivil) but that's how I feel, with all the stress he caused me. So basically, he can be incivil to anyone he wants, attack anyone he wants, make judgement calls on anyone he likes, just as long as he gets what he wants. Who the hell voted this guy in? (incivil) — Nathan (talk) 04:15, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Nathan, I think you're becoming a little too obsessed over this. Remember what happened when I got obsessed with a stalker list? --GeorgeMoney T·C 04:19, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
No, I'm falling very short of WP:POINT in getting my point across. Exploding Boy's actions (in order to get what he wanted) were unacceptable. He resorted to rudeness, incivility, personal attacks and making judgements about someone he has no idea about (me) in order to get what he wanted. If anyone needs an example of the type of admin we shouldn't have on Wikipedia, now you know where to look. (is that incivil? oh well) — Nathan (talk) 04:23, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Maybe you're right. I don't know how he ever became an admin. Also, I don't know why we are bothering Prodego with our little discussion, so we should take this to my talk page. --GeorgeMoney T·C 04:30, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
However, if Exploding Boy apologises to me, I'll be perfectly happy to delete my words above and have some respect for him. Right now, I have none.
Those RfA's are tricky. When you vote for the person, you're voting for what you know now, rather than the type of person they become later. Look at Cyde's RfA and how he said he was done with userboxes. etc etc. See you on your talk. — Nathan (talk) 04:39, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Well, we can put him in the same category as certain other editors who don't care whose feelings they trample, as long as they get what they want. — Nathan (talk) 04:48, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
(Edit Conflict) I wish there would be an easier way to desysop somebody than having to get a steward to do it. And, I wish there was a "Requests for De-adminship" which would be the exact opposite of a "Request for Adminship" And I wish b-crats could remove peoples' powers instead of only set them. That is bad, because what if a b-crat presses the wrong button and makes a vandal a steward. Then, they can de-sysop anybody, and nobody can do anything unless they get developer intervention. --GeorgeMoney T·C 04:52, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
In a logical world, we'd have a way to bring an admin's actions to the community so he/she can be judged by his/her peers. That's what an RfC should be, but a lot of people just use it as a witch hunt. — Nathan (talk) 04:57, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Yeah. You're right. Now what RfC's do is get an admin and all of his friends to agree with him making the non-admin look like the bad guy. --GeorgeMoney T·C 04:59, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
If it wasn't for people like JoanneB, HappyCamper, Prodego and some others, I would really lose faith in the admins here, then I would wonder if we're really building an encyclopedia or manipulating users. — Nathan (talk) 05:03, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Well, ususally after users become admins, they start to stop majorly contributing to articles (aside from vandal-fighting). --GeorgeMoney T·C 05:05, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Since he hasn't apologised, I'm not going to wait for someone else to make me feel better, I'm going to go out and get some ice cream and Pepsi, and make myself feel better by eating it. (though I'm sure will only be a fleeting moment of quiet where he'll come back later to bother me). — Nathan (talk) 05:52, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage

When Will was redesigning my userpage, I saw you fixed that little bug with the userboxes - just wanted to say thanks! ;) Sergeant Snopake 18:06, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userfied a box from a role account

Hi. I'm just letting you know that I've moved User:Userboxuser/HateIE to User:GeorgeMoney/HateIE. You may want to update any links. The plan seems to be that we're not going to use role accounts like that. See Wikipedia talk:The German solution. By the way, I'm not sure where the lines are going to be drawn now, but this particular box seems to me like an envelope-pusher; I'd rename/reword it to avoid the word "hate", if it were mine. -GTBacchus(talk) 19:06, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Would "dislike" be ok? --GeorgeMoney T·C 19:15, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
I'm sure. I can think of lots of words to describe how I feel about Internet Explorer, none of them positive. I dislike it, shun it, repudiate it, mock it, advise strongly against it, pity those in its clutches, and delete it from my hard drive regularly. I'd be surprised if a userbox claiming any of those things were deleted. I'm not trying to come down on you, but you know how the atmosphere around userboxes is lately. Feel free to have fun, I'd just avoid a word like "hate". -GTBacchus(talk) 19:53, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Well, if it gets deleted, I have a backup, so people can copy the code from there and directly subst it with the others. --GeorgeMoney T·C 21:13, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Checkuser

I didn't mean an edit summary, I meant a summary of what the message you removed was. See Wikipedia:Requests for CheckUser/Clerks/Guide Prodego talk 21:44, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Completed requests need to go to the top of the completed section, not the bottom. Prodego talk 22:21, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Yes, they should be in the guide. {{sofixit}}. Prodego talk 22:36, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Underscores do matter, since using them breaks the {{checkuser}} template. Prodego talk 23:29, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New Signature

What do you think? LINUXERIST@ 21:48, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Sadly it doesn't go well on your page, and I have to put "~~~" instead of "~~~~" (which I initially forgot), but glad you still like it. LINUXERIST@ 21:58, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Wait, are you on Internet Explorer? Using it now, I see it looks much worse than on Firefox on this page. OTHERIST@ 18:35, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
No, I hate IE. --GeorgeMoney T·C 22:30, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
Oh, now I see the message you left. Sorry for accusing you of being a Internet Exploder luser. :) LINUXERIST@ 00:56, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
Look at my userbox here and here --GeorgeMoney T·C 00:59, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spelling

Mainly because I prefer how it looks, but it also has something to do with the fact that American English is mostly bad excuses for spelling errors. ;) LINUXERIST@ 01:06, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Editcount Question

How do you get that box with the edit counter to display on RfA's? --GeorgeMoney T·C 01:42, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
<pre> tags. G.He 01:48, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
Seems aligned to me. G.He 02:10, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
Well, they're not all aligned on RfAs either. G.He 02:15, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Friend

Done. ;-) The King of Kings 02:30, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why?

Who changed it to Wikipedia:Random picture of the day? FellowWikipedian 03:16, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

George and I decided it on it, though I believe I made the inital move. LINUXERIST@ 03:30, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A very sad thank you

Thank you for your vote in my recent RFA. At 43/43/14, I decided it was best to withdraw. I will wait until another time for an RFA. Thanks again, ILovePlankton 03:19, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
you like it? I went into custom buttons.txt and for the welcome summary I changed it to that. ILovePlankton 03:33, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
I have to click on the voters name, but it is a lot easier than do it all by hand. ILovePlankton 03:38, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

How I did it, I changed the edit summary by going into the custombuttons.txt, in ther it says this

==Welcome== {{subst:anon}}
Welcoming anonymous user

the second part is the edit summary. ILovePlankton 04:12, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
