Milk's Favorite Cookie (talk • contribs • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) Your DYK nomination for hyperdeterminant was successfulThanks for your contributions! Nishkid64 (talk) 05:56, 28 January 2008 (UTC) VSQP: very stupid question probably but I am trying to figure out how to post and just say thanks for the welcome message! Is this correct? EdnaNetzke (talk) 15:22, 4 February 2008 (UTC) DYKHi and thanks for your many nominations at DYK. You may have noticed that a majority of your nominations have not been accepted. It would help us if you were to familiarize yourself with the rules, which you can find at WP:DYK#The DYK Rules. Not only that, but please credit the original article contributors in your nomination, like "Article by User:Jimbo Wales, nominated by ~~~~." Thanks again. howcheng {chat} 18:42, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
Talk:Global warmingHi! I removed the Wikiproject Environment template you put on the top of Talk:Global warming because the template is already on the page; it's just contained in the "this article is covered by multiple wikiprojects" box. - Enuja (talk) 22:19, 28 January 2008 (UTC) Re:Featured imageCongratulations! I'm not sure about how to make certain parts link; I know it can be done with the Imagemap extension, but I know it's pretty complicated. jj137 (talk) 23:35, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
ImageMapWow. Using Show Preview, I tried to "redo" it, but for some reason I still can't get the links to work properly. I'll keep working on it. jj137 (talk) 02:28, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
dyk--Victuallers (talk) 13:21, 29 January 2008 (UTC)Are you an imagemap fan? Victuallers (talk) 13:21, 29 January 2008 (UTC) Fair use rationale for Image:Donorsilo.JPGThanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Donorsilo.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. 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. Rettetast (talk) 16:14, 29 January 2008 (UTC) ArticleDeleted it. Haven't had a chance to work on the archives yet; just got online for the first time today (although I think I have an idea of what to do). jj137 (talk) 20:53, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
confusedhi mfc, i'm confused by recent messages. You have a template today for the DYK (see above) and a thx for the RFA support - (hope you found the bucket) Can you explain? Victuallers (talk) 21:23, 29 January 2008 (UTC) -- oops..O I C ... missed this one Victuallers (talk) 21:51, 29 January 2008 (UTC)Charlotte AndersonHi, I noticed the Charlotte Anderson article that you have contributed on the uncatagorized page list. However, sources indicate this actress was Charlotte Ander (de:Charlotte Ander), for whom a Wikipedia page already exists. • Gene93k (talk) 23:31, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
ImageMapsVictuallers told me about this tool which helps create imagemaps. Wow. Check out the changes I made to archives till 38 page (still a couple I have to fix, I think). jj137 (talk) 03:05, 30 January 2008 (UTC) Boston Celtics FA NomThough this seems like it won't succeed, I could help you with the issues addressed to help bring the article to FA status. Just drop me a note on what to do and I will get started. STORMTRACKER 94 Go Sox! 20:52, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
AWBYes, you should be able to - when you compile the list, there should be an option in one of the tabs to change all of the pages to Talk: namespace. To make your TOC in the center, just use {{TOCcenter}}. jj137 (talk) 21:09, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
Boston Celtics assessmentsHey. Seems like you're assessing a slew of start-class articles as stubs. May I ask about your criteria, or the reason for this? Wizardman 21:26, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
mistake no maybe notI see Removed it! - - Milk's Favorite Cookie 22:02, 30 January 2008 (UTC) 2 thingsFor the new pages, nothing I know of. New Page Watcher may have something you can use. I haven't been able to find anything for the Celtics other than the all-time roster. I guess we will just have to tag non-bios the "old-fashioned way". jj137 (talk) 22:52, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
Sacha inchi AFDHi there, i'm sure you've noticed which way the AFD is going, perhaps you would consider withdrawing your nom? -- Ļıßζېấשּׂ~ۘ Ώƒ ﻚĢęخ (talk) 23:39, 30 January 2008 (UTC) Love your archivebox!That's all I wanted to say! Yngvarr 00:19, 31 January 2008 (UTC) Re:BotActually, I am very experienced with Pywikipedia bot and AWB bot software (I used to run a bot all day everyday on another wiki). Actually, if you download and install the Pywikipedia bot software (if you want!), I can definitely help you with a bot. jj137 (talk) 00:22, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Let me know if you get this far. jj137 (talk) 01:26, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

jj137 (talk) 02:59, 31 January 2008 (UTC) User talk help requestWell, I tried. I think that's what you were aiming for, and if not, hopefully that's close enough for you to tweak the code around a bit. The changes I made were mainly in your /Top template, and basically consisted of slapping the two archive things and the TOC in an invisible table. Unfortunately, I'm not quite sure how to make your second archive pile as large as the other one (or vice versa), mainly because I have no idea how you did all that in the first place. I hope that works for you - if not, it should be easy enough for you to undo - one edit each here and on the template. Happy Editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 01:18, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
Re:BarnstarThank you very much! I would have liked to fixed this, though. jj137 (talk) 03:08, 31 January 2008 (UTC) Signpost updated for January 28th, 2008.

Concerning your contribution, Gianfranco Contini, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material without the permission of the author. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.novara.com/letteratura/bibliografia900/contini.htm. As a copyright violation, Gianfranco Contini appears to qualify for deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. Gianfranco Contini has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message. For text material, please consider rewriting the content and citing the source, provided that it is credible.If you believe that the article or image is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:
However, for text content, you may want to consider rewriting the content in your own words. Thank you, and please feel free to continue contributing to Wikipedia. [The text above was automatically generated.] I realize that you weren’t aware of the problem when you created the article by using a google translation of its equivalent on the French Wikipedia, but following that article back to its source on the Italian Wikipedia I discovered that the text there largely consisted of chunks lifted from the Novara on line letteratura. By the way, when you do import articles from the other Wikipedias there are a couple of things to bear in mind. Firstly, their texts, like ours, are copyrighted but licensed under the GFDL. That means that their authorship must be acknowledged. When we forget to do that—and I am sure we all do sometimes—we are violating their copyright. Secondly, machine translations are nearly always hopeless for out purposes. Certainly if you have sufficient knowledge of the source language, you can use the machine-generated text as the basis of a translation or summary of the original article—but always it will need careful copy-editing and checking.

I will take on board all the comments made and look forward to wielding the mop with alacrity.

Re:Fantasy BaseballNo, it's not just you, it's doing that to me too. I'm stuck. jj137 (talk) 22:16, 1 February 2008 (UTC) ReplyI fixed the links. Do you mean all disambiguation pages that need {{disambig}} added? Or just links fixed so that they don't link to disambiguation pages? jj137 (talk) 23:29, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Promoting own nominations to Template:Did you know/Next updateHowdy, I noticed that you recently promoted your own nomination of 2008 submarine cable disruption to the next update page. Ideally, you would like to have an independent editor promote nominations that you are involved in for the sake of fairness and transparency. The article may have some "In the News" type concerns as well. I'm going to remove the promotion for now but the article is listed on the candidate page and so it will have a fair opportunity to be promoted. AgneCheese/Wine 01:48, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
