[edit] You are an asset to Wikipedia

It's my pleasure, and it's great to see you boldly contributing to our encyclopedia. It's great to have you on board. LittleOldMe 16:31, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Then you, as with me, are what is referred to as a WikiGnome. Can I suggest that, as an aid to vandalism reversion, you install the popups tool. It will allow you to see what was changed without loading a page and will also allow one click reversions. Just follow the link and the installation instructions are simple.

If you are interested by all means feel free to join

Regards

Thanks for joining! :) You seem to have a genuine interest, i'll be looking for a assistant lead coordinator - so consider yourself a assistant coordinator if you want of course. Happy New Year to you!

Christ, what do you mean if we dont get a better one? I think that one is bloody brilliant and people would have to work damn hard to compete with yours. Thank you very much for your time to make it! Very grateful indeed. And thank you again :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Police,Mad,Jack (talk • contribs) 22:21, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Nice one mate it looks awesome, I am working on the main project page now that links from the user box instead of that crummy little thing in the wikiproject council page.

Police,Mad,Jack —Preceding comment was added at 22:41, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Hello again

Oh and if you would be so kind it would be great to have one of them bars what you put on the articles talk page that says this is in the wikiproject life on mars etc, you know what I mean?

Police,Mad,Jack

Police,Mad,Jack —Preceding comment was added at 14:39, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi, yeah i'm really sorry about that. I was just going to say something else but its not important.

Yeah I saw that, I guess it was lagging a bit but some users are obsessed with deletion I mean afterall what sort of idiot puts the tag on it 5 minutes after you've saved the page cause the person is still working on it. Its just silly. Oh yeah and about this template where can I find it??

[edit] Wikiproject Vs Taskforce

Obviously the project is the thing we need but i'm having trouble convincing on the talk page of the project two people are arguing this and that mostly against the idea of a project. I have undone the comments as they are silly and I have replied on their talk pages. Oh and btw I was looking at other Wikiprojects today and I noticed most have a membership banner as well as a userbox it might be worth us brainstorming one of those.

Hello

How are things? I have had a lot of vandalism lately with my userpage as you'll see in the history. Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 15:09, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, at one point I was concerned that it wouldnt pick up. But I was wrong (which i'm glad of) nothing worse that starting a project than it to fail miserably. Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 18:48, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

The Life on Mars Wikiproject Newsletter Issue 2 - February 2008

"They reckon you've got concussion - I couldn't give a tart's furry cup if half your brains are falling out. Don't ever waltz into my kingdom acting king of the jungle." - Gene Hunt Project news Ashes to Ashes begins airing on BBC One and BBC Four this month: the project's volunteers could help out with all of these articles as well. Unfortunately there is no change in the volume of good articles in the project. A list of Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes has been created and Alex Drake's article has been made. To do Character profiles, such as Gene Hunt, Sam Tyler, Annie Cartwright and Phyllis Dobbs are close to good article status, with a bit of work, we can do it. Lesser known characters but still of importance, like DC Chris Skelton and DS Ray Carling still need expanding or creating. Everything Ashes to Ashes should be worked on.

New members Llamafish, Gingerclan, Gogorox93, Kaid100, Onshore, Yukichigai and Jamesgibbon joined in January. Theelf29 has left the project.

[edit] Chris Skelton

I thought you should be aware of the continued Vandalism to this article, some idiot blanked it and left the lead so the personality bit and the rest was deleted, also they stopped it being undone but I have found away to get it back. Just thought I should let you know two pairs of eyes are better than one :) Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 18:18, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah very true, what makes me so mad is what possible satisfaction could you possibly get from messing up an article? Its just soooo sad. I bet your tuning into A2A tonight I am! Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 18:41, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Possible but I reckon this ep will be mostly how she went back into 1981 more of an explanation episode, and lol @ the killing thing in case you do miss one you can catch them again on ITV3 I think it is. So you dont have to kill anyone! lol Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 18:46, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

lmao yeah good ol' BBC, I heard somewhere i'm sure I did about Ray getting demoted again I cant tell you where but something just tells me that I heard it. Or yeah they could have messed up. Did you hear about that innacuracy with the Audi Quattro? Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 18:51, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah that is one of the points but the other is the Audi in question come out two years after 1981 thats what it said in a magazine what my mum reads it had a bit about A2A so I read it lol. But the reason was because he can hardly go around in his Cortina still can he and also the makers thought the car fitted Gene's rough and ready personality.Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 18:58, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

They messed up on the Cortina? Anyway you might wanna check this out if you havent already http://www.philip-glenister.com/ you can find pics of last time I was on it I found pics of Chris and Gene Ray posing in 80's style kit with the new idea of magazine fed pistols of the 80's Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 19:07, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Alright mate?

I was thinking about LOM Project do you think its worth moving the page name to "Wikiproject: Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes? Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 17:27, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

High sorry for the belated reply mate, just got in. Yeah I'm afraid I did get caught in a abit of revert warring, but they didnt want to listen to reason so I dont really see what choice I have. And yeah we will have to think about the name change and also what do you mean about the last message I sorta dont understand :) Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs) 20:07, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Remember though she did have the element of surprise if Gene was expecting anything it wasnt that and plus when Gen and Sam fought in the hospital Gene knew he was going to attack him. Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs)☺ 16:42, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

that was one hell of an "uppercut" she gave him, if you get that right they can even kill sometimes. Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs)☺ 16:46, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Lol yeah no more A2A if that happens he is tough as old boots and it still knocked him out cold we didnt see that bit but thats what it said in the daily paper. Not broken neck but ut i shouldnt think it'd do your neck any good either. But if you punched as hard as you physically could muster and obviously the angle of it would have to be inch perfect its not unheard of that you can dislodge the bone in the nose into going upwards and piercing the brain.

[edit] I would like to be adopted

I'm not a bad wikieditor. In a lot of ways I don't really need to be adopted. Actually the reason I want to be adopted is so they can show me some really neat tricks that most editors aren't aware of, and to help advise me on the science pages I'm working on.

I'm currently working heavily on AI related projects and on the Kardashev Scale. I'm having problems with the Kardashev scale particularly because I happen to disagree with 2 other editors who are friends in real life. The scale isn't factual science it's a theory and we disagree about what the article should represent. The scale is about classifying civilizations, human or alien, and we don't know any alien civilization so it's really all just speculative. Anyway, I kind of need an editor who is familiar with science so they can advise me on these projects. How familiar are you with science?--Sparkygravity (talk) 04:18, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
