From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to my talk page, feel free to leave me a message.

I'd like to apologise in advance if I don't respond quickly. I'm not ignoring you, it's just that due to a large degree of "brain fog", I tend to find it difficult to form coherent replies. Messages that only need me to recall facts, find links, etc. will probably be answered quite quickly. Messages that require some sort of personal interaction are more likely to have delayed answers. But don't let that put you off: I do read all of my messages promptly, and I will answer them eventually. So, sorry if it takes me a while to get back to you.

[edit] Hi Kitty

Hi Kitty, fancy seeing you here! ;) Caught your edits while on RC patrol, though I'd say hi. Jude(talk,contribs) 08:47, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Juuuuddde! :D Hello. I didn't realise you were a member, but I suppose I should have guessed. KittyRainbow 19:53, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Children's books

Howdy! Thanks for starting the articles for various children's books. Would you mind using {{child-book-stub}} or {{child-novel-stub}} when possible? It would help the stub sorters no end. Cheers! Her Pegship (tis herself) 17:20, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

Didn't expect to see you around here, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Happy editing on AF articles. We need some of the articles related to the newer books updated a bit, I think. A little proofreading here and there, and mostly just more details. justice 18:29, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Replied here.

[edit] Hello Again!

Without meaning to drag out the theme of topics on your talk page (:P), hello again! I assume you're the same KittyRainbow from the Foodwagon (Maddigan's Quest) - it seems our paths cross again ;). Regards, TheIslander 16:43, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

I am indeed that same Kitty Rainbow! Hello. :) Judging by the articles you've been editing, I'd say our paths are going to cross fairly often in the future too, heh. -- KittyRainbow (talk) 09:10, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hey

Are you the same KittyRainbow from ff.net?--CyberGhostface (talk) 21:36, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Yep, that's me. *waves* Hiya! :) -- KittyRainbow (talk) 09:10, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
Nice to know you've got a reputation, eh? :) I saw the username and that's what I thought, too. I'm someone completely different on ff.net, though. BunnyFlying (talk) 05:40, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
Haha, a reputation? I'm surprised, actually, considering the last time that I posted anything on FFnet was... err, 18th June 2006. *pokes self* (But CGF and I know each other from way back, so that's not really anything to do with reputation...!)
So, if you're not BunnyFlying on there, what are you called? (If you don't mind me asking.) -- KittyRainbow (talk) 15:03, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
The Wineglass. The Root/Vinyaya shipper with the C2, looking for subscribers and other fics. I dunno why I'm BunnyFlying here and The Wineglass there. I just felt like it. BunnyFlying (talk) 23:31, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Costa Book Awards

Thanks for your work on children's lit - would you be interested in updating Costa Book Awards before I get a chance? --mervyn (talk) 14:05, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

I was actually looking at the Costa Book Awards website yesterday and I completely failed to realise that this year's shortlists had been announced. XD;; Whoops. But, yeah, I'll get started on that now. -- KittyRainbow (talk) 15:03, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Roll Call for WikiProject Artemis Fowl

The new logo! Greetings from the Artemis Fowl Project. Your name is listed on our participants page, but we are unsure of how many of the people listed there are still active contributors to the Project's activities. If you are still interested in participating in the work of the Project, please add your name to the active list. Once you have done that, you might want to familiarise yourself with the current work. On behalf of the Project, if you do consider yourself to have left, I hope you will consider rejoining; if you consider yourself inactive, I hope you will consider returning to respond to just one request per week, or as many as you can manage. Happy editing, The Artemis Fowl Project Coordinators'.

[edit] Cassandra Clare

Good job on the author's article. Any chance you could give City of Bones the same treatment? At this point it's nothing more than a really long synopsis of the book, more suitable for a book report than an encyclopedia entry. Pairadox (talk) 21:28, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. :) Unfortunately, as I've not read the book yet, it wouldn't really be possible for me to do its article. I do plan to read the book in the future so I'm trying to avoid spoilers which makes it, err, somewhat difficult to read reviews. (Although in the course of my research I did find the original copy of one review from that list on her site ... and also a post on her LiveJournal where she says that Clary is named after a real person, hmm.) Obviously once I have read the book I'll consider going over its article but as there are few resources I can currently read there's not much I can do for it right now. :/ -- KittyRainbow (talk) 23:35, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
LOL By all means, don't ruin the book for yourself! I'm not a good one to clean it up either, and the article will (probably) still be there when you get around to it. I'll throw the refs you list above into an "Additional reading" section for now so they don't get lost. Pairadox (talk) 00:28, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

The new logo! Greetings from the Artemis Fowl Project. Your name is listed on our participants page, but we continue to be unsure of how many of the people listed there are still active contributors to the Project's activities. If you are still interested in participating in the work of the Project, please add your name to the active list. Once you have done that, you might want to familiarize yourself with the current work. On behalf of the Project, if you do consider yourself to have left, I hope you will consider rejoining; if you have left, then you will have been gone for at least two months, so your name will be removed from the list, and the list will become a single list of only active editors. If you decide to return, please comment on the talk page. Happy editing, The Artemis Fowl Project Coordinators'.

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Dromkeen Medal, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.scholastic.com.au/common/dromkeen/medal.asp. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Poo-NicolaDavies NealLayton.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Poo-NicolaDavies NealLayton.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:29, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Stockton Book Awards

Hello Kitty - you're doing some good work here. I'd like to point out that the author of "Oswald and the End of the World" (shortlisted for the Stockton Prize this year) is not the same Andrew Strong of Commitments fame - thus the link on your page shouldn't be there. He's a fine singer, but shouldn't get the credit for a children's book too. Yawnthepost (talk) 11:12, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
