Don't you hate that? I started one with my friend and put one of her emails down. I'm the only one who ever goes on.

[edit] Requesting Immediate Help

ER (TV series)--User:75.3.192.102 See history. Therequiembellishere (talk) 08:01, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Looked at the discussion of User:75.3.192.102 and he's been blocked by User:Wisdom89, but I get the uneasy feeling he/she'll come back and vandalise again after 24 hours or use another IP address :-S Londonsista (talk) 09:09, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Green Wing (Series 1).ogg

Thank you for uploading Image:Green Wing (Series 1).ogg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Polly (Parrot) 15:58, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Green Wing (Series 1).ogg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Green Wing (Series 1).ogg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Polly (Parrot) 15:59, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Green Wing

Certainly - Glad to help! It looks like you almost did the upload perfectly, except for a quirk of how Wikipedia handles uploads. When you uploaded the file for the second time with the correct information summary, it did not replace the file information (that only works the first time). To fix it, all I did was copy your upload summary, click the 'edit' button, and replace the content of the page with what you had written. Hopefully this makes sense :-) Let me know & I'll be glad to help if you run into any snags in the future. I listened to a couple segments of your recording and it sounds good! -SCEhardT 02:10, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] RE: Userboxes

Thats fine, it happens. Yeah the thing about the Userboxes mine was all messy until I realised how to code them so they go neat the one I devised is not the best by any means but it works for me and it might for you too.

Example:

{{Userbox|Example uerbox}}

Example title: My Userboxes change to "<tr><td><>My Userboxes</></td></tr>"

and on your actual userbox

instead of the standard "{{Userbox|Example uerbox}}" = change to <tr><td>{{Userbox|Example uerbox}}</td></tr>

And for every userbox put the appropriate code at either end, I hope this helps if any further is needed please contact me Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs)☺ 14:48, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
