[edit] Adoption

Hello, Squids and Chips! I see that you have expressed an interest in being adopted by an experienced editor. I accept your request, being an experienced editor myself. Whether you want to learn about wiki markup, find something to do, or just talk to somebody, I'm the one you can talk to - just leave a message on my talk page. Good luck with Wikipedia! --Daniel Olsen 04:03, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hey, yo!

Please cease and desist from making changes in the Super Bowl XXVII Halftime Contreversy pages. I am trying to keep all titles with the first letter of each word capitalized in each subsection as per Wikipedia standards. Otherwise, I will report you for vandalism. Thank you.

[edit] ?

Youve just linked a queensland island to a west australian list? It might help to look at an atlas - its bit like george bush talking about border relations between canada and mexico.... SatuSuro 02:19, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Sorry. Ironically, I have a map in front of me. I get left and right mixed up as much as I do East and West. Squids_and_Chips 02:31, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Dont apologise one of ouradmins cleaned it up - and no problems if I am offered either/or problems i can actually find it harder to decide compared to three or four options - so we're human (what a relief) SatuSuro 02:34, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Stub sorting

Hello Squids and Chips,

I noticed you marked an article as a stub using the {{stub}} template. Did you know that there are thousands of stub types that you can use to clarify what type of stub the article is? Properly categorizing stubs is important to the Wikipedia community because it helps various WikiProjects to identify articles that need expansion.

You can view the full list of stub types at WP:STUBS.

If you have questions about stub sorting, don't hesitate to ask! There is a wealth of stub information on the stub sorting WikiProject, and hundreds of stub sorters. Thanks! — jmorgan (talk) 05:46, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] adoption

squids and chips, can i be adopted by you?--Ratónbat 00:34, 22 March 2007 (UTC) can we be friends and ill do some things in club penguin and you correct my spelling?--Ratónbat 22:46, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] California Cups

Your suggestion to merge the California Cup races is interesting but I have two problems with it. One, I don't know enough about wiki code to do such a thing, and two, I can't see a good way to do such a thing and still have the winners of each race clearly defined. If you can do the first task, and can explain how the second might work...I have no problem with the idea.Ki Longfellow 01:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you S&C (no doubt somewhere in Blighty, the seaside my guess), I'll have a look at the instructions and see if I can make sense of them. Ki Longfellow 13:04, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE: List of swamps in American Samoa

I have spent a little time working on the article; I learned a few interesting things myself. I hope I have improved the article sufficiently. You are welcome to re-add the prod notice if you wish. --Merovingian ※ Talk 02:39, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Melb suburbs...

Thanks for bringing that one to our attention. I fixed them up and moved them to subpages of a Wikiproject where they belonged, it's amazing how much debris there is floating around in mainspace! Orderinchaos 14:41, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chinglish

The neutrality isn't really independent of the factual inaccuracy; it's just factually inaccurate in particularly negative ways. If it was a biography of a living person, this is the sort of thing we'd automatically remove as potentially libelous. --Ptcamn 18:37, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you for the help with Neopets controversy!

Thanks so much for fixing my formatting--I could not figure out what I was doing wrong! --Lmblackjack21 22:17, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism Warning

Your vandalism warning on User_talk:204.100.184.254 is useless and rather pointless. That IP belongs to an entire school district, with many thousands of students and staff. Please take appropriate actions to permanently block anonymous editing by this IP, thankyou. 204.100.184.254 17:46, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The seventh day

A tag has been placed on The seventh day, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to a nonexistent page. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

[edit] Speedy deletion of 70.241.x.x Range

Please do not make personal attacks. Wikipedia has a strict policy against personal attacks. Attack pages and images are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images in violation of our biographies of living persons policy will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. -- WebHamster 00:57, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

ech. Sorry. Made a mistake using Wikipedia:Abuse Reports. --Squids'and'Chips 01:00, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chinatown

Well, if it's Taishanese, it's OK, but the reason why I said it's Taiwanese is because that's what it is commonly called. —BoL 04:00, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Dude

An editor has nominated Dude, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dude and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 01:00, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Actinide → Actinoid page move

Hi, thank you for your comments, I didn't realise there was a move tab. The article Lanthanide has also been moved recently by a different user, I'm not sure what technique they used, maybe you should investigate. Cheers Jdrewitt (talk) 09:15, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] maths rating template

As I was doing some cleanup, I noticed you tagged a few articles with the maths rating template some time back. Here are a few things you may not know about this template:

  • There is already a list of mathematics articles that does not require talk page tags. The only purpose of the tags is to assign quality, importance, and field ratings to articles.
  • When you add a maths rating template, please fill in all three parameters (field, class, importance) right away. Otherwise, someone else has to go back and do it.
  • The only articles that should have the frequentlyviewed parameter set are the ones listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Mathematics/Wikipedia 1.0/Frequently viewed/List.

[edit] Arthur eps

Hi Sq&C--First off, the table subpage looks great! I'm boggled to death that you claim to be able to recreate all the Arthur plots for seasons 1-8 from MEMORY--that's just WAAAAY too doggone much TV! :) But if you can do it, more power to ya! While I'm here, I noticed you were trying to do....something....here[1] Whatever it was, it doesn't seem to have worked--I look at the page, and I don't see anything that looks like what you were trying for. What were you after, there? Maybe I can give you some help with it. Same with the interwiki link for...was that Welsh you were trying to link to? It doesn't look like it showed up as you planned. Anyhow--good job with the layout on that table, and I'll be glad to see what you do with the episodes. Thanks! Gladys J Cortez 00:22, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm assuming you're also referring to the category I added which shows up at the bottom of the page in the category box (which only appears if there are categories). The interwiki link shows up in the languages box (which only appears if there are interwiki links) under the toolbox in the side bar. I think that was Welsh. It appears to be a new page on that Wikipedia.
I've watched reruns of the episodes too many times and some of them I can't help but watch again. I'm still messing around with the table. Although it makes for better readability, it lowers editability. --Squids'and'Chips 00:44, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Yes, that was what I was referring to, though obviously something went VERY wrong with the link to the diff I was trying to post. (I really, REALLY need to brush up on my wiki-markup.) So now, at least I understand what you were doing with the category. (At first, it looked to me like you were linking the article to itself, which...yeah, I don't know what I was thinking either. I was at work, what can I say.) I don't see your Welsh link, though...is that supposed to appear on the page, or is it just a reference marker for something? (As you can see, I've done no interwiki linking myself!) The table looks great--and yeah, those are SOOOOOOoooo much fun to edit, aren't they? Supposedly there's a WYSIWYG editor gadget for WP, where you can edit in plaintext like in MS Word, and copy-paste things like tables directly into articles without having to fuss around with the spacing and formatting. I think I'm going to try it, if I can remember its name. On the subject of the table--I might be able to flesh out the episode descriptions a bit, as well. I've watched my fair share of Arthur myself, sad to say...:) Talk to you soon....Gladys J Cortez 03:16, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
