[edit] Pimp My Page

Okay, but first I need to know a couple things. What are your interests, hobbies, favorite color, favorite food, and anything else that you like? :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 19:08, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Long list...get ready for tons of reading...

Interests - American History Golf Billiards Science-fiction/horror novels Film Music

Hobbies - Golf Billiards Writing Wikipedia, of course

Favorite color - Black

Favorite food - Pizza, including anything that won't kill me ten seconds after digestion

I would also like to become an Administrator one day, but I've have to help out a lot here. I have school during the day, but I usually finish that by noon. Just so you know, I'm going to Tucson, Arizona tomorrow afternoon and won't be back until Friday night. MichaelGriffin 19:12, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Okay, Cool...I have school to, but I'm Home-Schooled. So I'll probably have your Userpage done by Friday! So when you get back you can check it, Oh yeah and what time zone are you in? :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 19:15, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

But you can also check it throughout today and tomorrow, because I'll probably be working on it. :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 19:17, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

I have to re-write this since there was an edit conflict. No matter, though! I don't know what time zone we are in now (I really don't care), but I live in Arizona. We don't do DST. Also, I thought we could finish most of it by tonight if we work hard. It is only 12:17 at the moment.MichaelGriffin 19:18, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

You're an hour ahead of me, but Uhhhh...yeah I guess if we really tried we could do it! :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 19:21, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Fantastic! I noticed the "About Me" section on your User Page, which is what I want. I want to keep it as simple as possible while not being too dull. MichaelGriffin 19:23, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Okay, I'm working on it now! :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 19:30, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank you very much! I'll be on for the next couple of hours, so if you have any other questions about what I want, I'll be around. MichaelGriffin 19:31, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I have already added some stuff and I will work on it! :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 19:36, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Man, I have to go...I'll be back on in about two hours! :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 20:18, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

I was looking around the site and found a list of Userboxes to choose from. If you have any ideas on how I can improve my User Page, please tell me. MichaelGriffin 21:08, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

If you look at this UserPage, you can see my work...If you want some thing like this just tell me! :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 21:58, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

As I said before, I don't want my User Page to be too "busy," if you know what I mean. Maybe I'll add some of my all-time favorite articles in a few minutes. I'm going to look through some other User Pages for inspiration. Thanks for your help so far, SupaSoldier. MichaelGriffin

I just changed my User Page a little bit. Thankfully, all of the links work. I forgot I had to put down the (#) sign in order to number them correctly. MichaelGriffin 22:33, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Nice...lol...Hey, I added some color, if you want a different one just tell me, if you need anything on your Userpage just tell me!

Two Questions: Favorite Band: Favorite Color: (other than black) :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 22:39, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Favorite Band: Queen

Favorite Color: Blue

MichaelGriffin 22:41, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't want to make your User page too "Busy", but If you need anything taken out or put in just ask! :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 22:52, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Queen picture

I think it is best that you put the photo on the very top of my page, because it really does not look right in any other area. MichaelGriffin 22:52, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

If you don't want it just say so, If not I'll put it up there. :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 22:56, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I do want it, please. I cannot stress this enough, though: you have been a great help, and I thank you for all the work you've done. If you could put the picture at the top of my page, that will do it. I think I can handle all future edits. MichaelGriffin 22:59, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your Welcome

Well, I'll add that last thumb of Queen back and be on my way. If you ever need help with anything at all, Please Ask! :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 23:05, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage

Hmmmm....I have an idea! Hang on a sec. :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 00:18, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I gave your Userpage a slight restoration (without color and long links)...I'm going to add the color, but that's all...If it still messes with your computer, tell me and I will take the color out. :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 00:24, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

Thannk you, SupaSoldier. I took out the Userboxes, which may have caused my computer to bug-out. I'm going to make a few more changes in the next hour. I apologize for all of the trouble. MichaelGriffin 00:27, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

No trouble at all! If we put the Userboxes in the right format, I bet it won't make your computer speed slow. The Color template that filled your entire Userpage up was probably the problem. :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 00:46, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome Templates

The welcome messages are always placed on the user talk page and substed. The most common templates are:

• {{welcomeg}}
• {{welcome}}
• {{welcome2}}
• {{welcome3}}

Do you know how substing works? If not lemme know and i'll give you a brief explaination. Goodnightmush 00:30, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

If you are not busy, please explain how substing works. M.G. In Da Hizzhouse 00:36, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey sorry. Had to go right after I asked. Check out WP:SUBST for an explaination, it covers it as well as I can, its sort of a confusing concept. Also, I left out a crucial message, {{anon}} for anonymous editors (IP addresses) Goodnightmush 22:41, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you so much! It looks like I have a lot of reading to do! :D M.G. In Da Hizzhouse 22:49, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
