We hope you stick around, and make sure you enjoy yourself! Cheers, riana_dzasta 17:23, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

 :p Glad I got in there quick, then! I looked over your contributions - you're off to a good start! Make sure to provide an adequate edit summary for as many edits as you can, though - it makes life a lot easier for everyone else, and if you don't provide one, people might think you're trying to sneak things past them :) Otherwise, good work, and as I say above, if you have any questions, give me a buzz! riana_dzasta 17:38, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
Oh, and by the way, there's Special:Newusers for the log of new users. Will (message ♪) 19:38, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
Oops, that should be Special:Log/newusers. Will (message ♪) 20:24, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
No problem. Any other questions, ask me or Riana, or basically anyone. Will (message ♪) 20:44, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Here's all the lists of collective nouns including birds where you can put your references for murder and parliament instead of mammals (may already have sufficient citations) --Nad 19:03, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stubs

Hello,

Thank you for your stub tagging. You may wish to note that it is preferable to use a stub template from Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types instead of using simply {{stub}}, if you can.

Thanks! Ksbrown 12:42, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] re: Question on my talk page

I am a horrible instructor when it comes to Wikipedia tools. I will just give yout the link: Wikipedia:Tools/Navigation popups. Popups are handy for vandalism and blatant Wikipedia policy violations. They are not for content disputes. Good luck reverting vandalism. Take care! Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 12:57, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clockwork Orange

I noticed those displays for the first time today. The ones outside the barriers at St Enoch appeared to be working. I also used the multi-storey car park at Shields Road for the first time.

Over the last 20+ years whilst I have been using the Subway I get the impression that is it called Clockwork Orange and Subway interchangable by the Wegies. As for a citation, that is definitely the difficult bit. Stewart 21:23, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why Raining girl?

However given the weather over the last days I am not surprised.

And you are a Trekkie  :-) Stewart 21:23, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: more of the same

Glad your trying to use more specific stub types. I wasn't moaning, it's just I really had to look to find out a list of stubs when I started editing and thought some people may find the link to the list helpful. I quite agree that some articles are only ever going to be a certain length. To tackle stubs that aren't actually stubs there is a wikiproject. If your interested it is called the Stubsensor. Enjoy the editing. :o) Ksbrown 23:50, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Screaming Jets DVDs

Hello,

WP:PROD does not deal with categories, so I've transferred your PROD to WP:CFD 132.205.93.88 03:24, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Samuel de Champlain

Hi - As you may know, I semi-protected the article yesterday. Just as an idea for the reason - could it be that it's being studied in schools around this time? This is the only concievable reason I can think of (and I don't even know if his history is taught anywhere in the world - not in the UK, at least!) Martinp23 19:49, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re.pomposity among those who think a keyboard makes them a man.

I have deleted Husonds nasty little insult since it stopped me using, far less contributing to wikipedia for months. if you can't understand why infantile minds would vandalise a page called uranus then you need to get out a bit more. raining girl 15:53, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Phoenix New Times

Removed your prod notice on Phoenix New Times. Former flagship of New Times Media (now Village Voice Media); 38 years of publication as of 2008; award-winning; I could go on, but I think that should suffice. The fact that its free is irrelevant except insofar as they were a pioneer of giving away a reasonably serious newspaper. I would say that if we were to include 20 alternative weeklies in the U.S. this would be on the list; in fact, we probably include well over 100. And, no, I'm not from Phoenix, and I don't even particularly like the company that publishes it (especially since they bought and gutted the Voice). - Jmabel | Talk 23:06, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
