[edit] April 2008
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia. However, please know that editors do not own articles and should respect the work of their fellow contributors on Cure (medical). If you create or edit an article, know that others are free to change its content. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Beeblbrox (talk) 18:35, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
thanks. the complaining stops here. do not complain to me below this line.
- You might want to check out this google search to help you research and write your article: [1]. There are dozens of reviews here. I would try to pick and choose the 2-3 most reliable (those that come from reliable sources such as well respected magazines, newspapers, or journals), and cite them in your article. Also, be sure to give a neutral overview of the device. It looks like you are on the right track on this, and try to avoid original research, such as providing your own opinions on the pen. If you need ANY more help with this, drop another note at my talk page. --Jayron32|talk|contribs 17:06, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Leaving messages
By the way, thanks for helping out with New Page patrolling. Your work is very much appreciated. However, a few tips:
- Be certain you leave the messages for users at their User Talk: page NOT at their User: page. Its an easy mistake to make for someone new to the project, but messages like you have been leaving rightly belong on the User Talk page...
- Don't use UserBoxes in your signature, like the one you have been leaving referring to yourself as a New Page Patroller. The NPP is a VERY unofficial organization, and to represent yourself as a member of the group in your talk page comments implies that your comments carry some official weight. They don't... Userboxes properly belong only on YOUR userpage... See WP:SIG for more information.
We are SO glad you are helping out with Wikipedia, and your work is greatly appreciated... --Jayron32.talk.contribs 22:02, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] MfD nomination of Wikipedia:Princess Janay
Wikipedia:Princess Janay, a page you created, has been nominated for deletion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Princess Janay and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Wikipedia:Princess Janay during the discussion but should not remove the miscellany for deletion template from the top of the page; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. weburiedoursecretsinthegarden 19:02, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- Hey there Princess Janay, no worries, you made an honest mistake. I've moved this page to be found now at User:Princess Janay/Userboxes. You can edit, change, and do whatever you'd like to it. Soon, the page that starts with "Wikipedia:" will be deleted. Thanks for your editing, sorry if we came off a bit harsh here. Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 19:11, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- No problem, we've all had bad days. Glad you're here. You can ask any questions you want on my talkpage, it's always open! Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 19:16, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- Terribly sorry, Janay, didn't mean to come across blunt or bitey. You can find information on userspaces here. Apologies. You can ask me anything too, if Keeper's not here. Regards, weburiedoursecretsinthegarden 19:32, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cure (medical)
I've reverted cure (medical) to one of your edits. Then I did some copy-editing to bring it into line with Wikipedia:Manual of Style. In particular, there were too many capital letters in section headings and the title word was not set in bold at its first appearance. I added a link to cure (medical) on the cure disambiguation page. It would be a good idea for you to find other pages that ought to link to it and put the links there. Among other things, that will help bring the page to the attention of others interested in the topic so that they can also contribute to it.
Notice that if you click on "history" you see the page's edit history, and that identifies you as the initial creator of the page. That's the proper place for such identification; it should not be within the article itself. Michael Hardy (talk) 19:09, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
-
- I've moved the disambiguation page to Cure (disambiguation), and have merged Cure (medical) with Cure. Medical cure is the main context of "cure" and what people are most likely to be looking for when they type "cure" in the search box. The article still needs work, but it is a good start. Please see WP:CITE and Template:Citation for instructions on how to handle references. The Transhumanist 20:13, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
-
- I copy-edited the whole article, but Michael Hardy deleted the page to move the original page which you wrote to cure, then added my edits back in here, but it looks like he wrote it all. I'm just letting you know that I did the copy-editing there. For more info, see the thread at User talk:Michael Hardy#Cure. The Transhumanist 21:30, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
-
- I've added a task list to Talk:Cure. All you need to do for your barnstar is fix the references to inline citations. ;) The Transhumanist 21:57, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] It's cool
Hey. I hope you don't feel you are being ganged up on or anything here. That is certainly not my intention. It is clear you are contributing in good faith and I would encourage you to continue to do so. It seems you had a lot of problems all at once, but if you learn from them, and apply what you have learned, both Wikipedia and yourself have benefited from the experience. I have found that the best, most concise guide to what Wikipedia is and how it works is the five pillars, I know understanding it has helped me quite a bit in my short time here. Good Luck and don't let it get you down. Beeblbrox (talk) 21:25, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Hi Princess
Someone mentioned that you wrote a message in all caps. That really got me in trouble once, because in this type-written medium it is considered yelling. It took me awhile to realize just how seriously people take Netiquette and the quirky common courtesies that have evolved in this virtual in-print universe we call the Internet. Wikipedia even has some polite customs of its own - see Wikipedia:Etiquette - such as filling in edit summaries.
I noticed you mentioned that you are interested in becoming an admin one of these days. I'm impressed. Keep in mind that nobody who fails to use edit summaries makes it through RfA ("Requests for adminship"), as that is seen as an indicator of inexperience and immaturity (lack of regard for others) - many editors, especially admins, carefully analyze every edit made to articles, and edit summaries help them immensely to understand what is going on without having to go in and view the diffs of every single one.
Following Wikipedia's Five Pillars and being civil at all times (like refraining from yelling) is the hallmark of a good candidate for RfA.
Another link you might find helpful is Staying cool when the editing gets hot.
Don't worry about it too much - there's a lot to learn - initial stumblings are disregarded once a user has learned the ropes and has been wikified. :) But whatever you do, don't go for RfA until you've racked up a few thousand edits, and have conferred with an experienced Wikipedian first. The most common mistake at RfA is bad timing (premature nomination).
Is your head spinning yet? :) Welcome to Wikipedia! The Transhumanist 15:25, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, I was browsing contributions and was intrigued by your username.

Hi, some IP user deleted the article "just for fun", this happens often and is called vandalism. There is no need to re-write the entire article, just click on "undo" and revert it to a previous version. Valerius Myotis (talk) 22:04, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 399 to go
We are almost done, Category:Articles lacking sources from June 2006 is down to less the 400 articles to find references for. I would like to thank you for listing yourself as a volunteer at Wikipedia:Unreferenced articles and would like to take this opportunity to invite you to visit the project again and work on getting the last few articles referenced. We started with 5,572 and we are in the home stretch, please come and try to do a couple a day and we can finish it up in no time. Jeepday (talk) 02:26, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Good day your Highness
hello i'm new here I was just suggesting an idea for a Wikiproject when i saw your name. it's an honor your Highness ~bows~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.244.187.222 (talk) 03:59, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] K12 Inc.
The key to writing about commercial companies is to avoid any appearance of promoting their products or services and include lots of third-party sources. Try Google news and Google scholar for references. Also avoid using "puff words" ie instead of writing "They provide excellent computer services that enable schools to maximise their achievements." just say "They provide computer services to schools".

[edit] "Hi" to Her Highness ;)
Hi Princess Janay!
I noticed your nice exchange of letters with my friend Tim; he's great, isn't he? He's always been really helpful and good-natured to me, and I count him as one of my best friends here. :)
I hope you have a very happy time here at Wikipedia! It's a wonderful place, and there are many more wonderful editors to get to know. There may be a few ups and downs, and ornery people now and then, but I hope your royal dignity and serenity will carry you through. Today is my 2nd wiki-birthday, and I haven't regretted a moment. If I can help make your time here a little more cheery now and then, please write and let me know. I've worn the crown, too, but I think it suits you much better. ;) Your signature is excellent! :D

[edit] Admin coaching request status
You have expressed interest in undergoing the Admin coaching program. However, after reviewing your edit history, I feel you may need more experience editing (i.e., >2,500 edits & 4 months of activity) on Wikipedia before you can know for certain your ready to begin the process of becoming an administrator. Therefore, at this time, your application for Admin Coaching has been declined.
My suggestion would be to seek adoption from a more experienced user who can help you experience all of the various components of editing an encyclopedia. If you decide adoption is not for you, there is also the editor review process that may help you find areas to improve upon in our editing. If you would like to talk more about this, please feel free to leave me a note at my talk page. MBisanz talk 02:23, 18 April 2008 (UTC) |

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:KC109 Border Topbottom.JPG
Hi Princess Janay!
We thank you for uploading Image:KC109 Border Topbottom.JPG, but there is a problem. Your image is currently missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. Unless you can help by adding a copyright tag, it may be deleted by an Administrator. If you know this information, then we urge you to add a copyright tag to the image description page. We apologize for this, but all images must confirm to policy on Wikipedia.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks so much for your cooperation.
