[edit] About Iraq

Dude Suttles. Why are your opinions the way they are, you are like fascist in some areas and and Hillary Clinton in others. Lets have a discussion.

~Conman_530 (i will use my handle on this page from now on Steven, if you don't mind)

I understand what you mean. First of All, I'm not a Fascist, I'm A Realist. Second of all, I'm not Hillary Clinton. I personally do not agree with Clinton and her ways (Let's make it clear here, that there's a Wikipedia Guideline on No Hate Speech or Anything Related To That, so I gotta keep it clean here). I am very right wing, I don't like the left, and I highly disagree with this left wing luring that everyone is being accustomed to.

I also do understand our objective in Iraq, "to get rid of Bin Laden and his comrades", and bring democracy to the 3rd world countries of the middle east. I think we're doing the right thing at that objective. But, this is turning into a more different war, involving the implications and animocity between Sunnis and Shi'ites, resulting in unnecessary deaths of civillians, as well as our own United States troops. I want to emphacize to you that although we are trying to reach a goal, the constant bombardments and animocity between the Sunnis and Shiites and our involvements with their "war" that they have been fighting for over 2000 years now is completely unnecessary, and innocent and useful infantrymen's lives are being taken every second because of a car bombing, terrorist bombing, etcetera.

Conner, re-read my section on "An Introduction To My Opinions And My Personality". Many revisions were important to be made. Please comment on the latest. G'Night, -- Steven Suttles Stone 04:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Have your opinions changed after seeing those muslim photos?

Yes, As a matter of fact, a lot, my friend. -- Steven Suttles Stone 04:29, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

will you change the "opinions" page? -CD

No, I won't. Those opinions are to remain in place. There are many of these extremists, and we need to get rid of them, but it is also important to maintain the sense of reality in the War Of Terror. We will get rid of them, I know it, but also we are losing our own men by more than twice the magnitude all the time. Remember that,-- Steven Suttles Stone 01:58, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hi Steven

Congratulations on your triumphant return. If you have any questions at all on article work, let me know, and I will answer them or point you in the right direction. Cheers, --Tractor kings fan 05:39, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I have edited as far as 6 or so articles already. I've restored the original contents back to my user page, but have deleted many portions significantly to avoid any problems from the Administration about the "disorganized" fashion of my user page. Thanks a lot for your help. --- Steven Suttles Stone

Fantastic. Nice job. --Tractor kings fan 05:46, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Also, I've looked into some of your article edits. You appear to be on the right track for sure. --Tractor kings fan 05:47, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, Tractorkingsfan. I'm trying to get better in writing as well as editing, although the profession that I am willing to head for is becoming an Airline Pilot, most likely for United Airlines, Quantas, Japan Airlines, or any other airline service carrier. I am a frequent flyer, I fly with my father now and then, I've gotten pretty good at the controls. It's always good to be good at writing and compositions. Good to here from ya! --- Steven Suttles Stone

Mention me and Adams somewhere? -CD

Conner, how? I'll get banned if I did that on any of the articles, especially if I include other names on my own user page because they'll find a way to accuse me of invading personal information on a Wikipedia User Code. I'll think about it, Conner, but let me look into it. My original intention of my User Page was to announce my friends and family, but I don't know if that would be allright to do. I don't want any more trouble from the Admins. -- Steven Suttles Stone 02:01, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Person who accused us of sockpuppetry up for adminship

Hi Steven. You may be interested in this: Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Jreferee. Hope all is well. --Tractor kings fan 19:06, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

I'll check it out. This guy really caused us, especially you a lot of trouble. --- Steve

Yeah, it wasn't much trouble, it was just irritating. I was happy to be able to argue against him because his accusations, against me to a lesser extent but mostly against you, just seemed so utterly ridiculous. I've opposed his nomination on the grounds that I don't trust his decision-making, but I think it will pass. That's okay, I'm willing to overlook it as a mistake on his part. Cheers, --Tractor kings fan 19:26, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Well, everyone has their own biases, their thinking, and especially for Jreferee, he had a rather get-down-to-the-point way of accusing others about their problems. I do object to that, but he may still become Administrator. I hope he does change his way on viewpoints on others. --- Steven Suttles Stone

[edit] Please Excuse My Recent Edit To Buddha

A fellow classmate wrote the letters "sss was here" on the article Buddha while my school computer was left unattended. Please understand that this was not my vandalizm, but a fellow classmate causing problems and playing pranks. Please understand this situation, I do not want to be counted liable for vandalizm and be blocked once again. --- Steven Suttles Stone

You are responsible for any edits made with your account. --Yamla 17:50, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Please understand this situation, I have talked to the person who caused this problem. --- Steven Suttles Stone

Has the edit been reverted yet? Anyway, don't worry about it, but as Yamla said, it is best to keep your account guarded if people you know are apt to mess with it. I suggest logging out of your wikipedia account every time you are not physically at the computer where your account is open. Cheers, --Tractor kings fan 17:54, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it has. Will I be liable for vandalizm and will I be blocked because of this situation?, and will my stance suffer on Wikipedia? --- Steven Suttles Stone

You'll be fine. No, you won't be blocked. Relax, it's all good. Just, as I said, don't leave your account open on an unguarded computer, even for a second, just to be as safe as possible. --Tractor kings fan 17:58, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Roger That, I understand, there's no need for me to fret. I was overreacting, it's best to just forget about it. --- Steven Suttles Stone

Who did it steve? respond w/ last names. Do i know them? -CD

Not to be mentioned, bud. Seeya, -- Steven Suttles Stone 05:40, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding the Images

Place GFDL-self inside of brackets like this: {{}}, where you are looking to put the template. See if that works. Images are not my thing, but I think that will work. Cheers, --Tractor kings fan 17:23, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

All Right, I'll take your word for it. Be sure to check out my newest article, Mechanical Watch, I am perfecting the contents of this page. --- Steven Suttles Stone

There. I fixed it for you. Hope that's okay. I also removed the speedy delete template. I haven't touched the truck image, because you indicated some concern over the license plate. Do you want that image deleted? --Tractor kings fan 17:29, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, please let it be deleted. Once deleted, I will edit the photo in Microsoft Paint® and will upload the photo once again. I do have a problem in releasing a photo including the license plate number of an operational automobile. Thanks again, for correcting my formatting. --- Steven Suttles Stone

Done. --Yamla 17:54, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much. --- SSS

[edit] Mechanical Watch

I've read it, it's very good. I do see a problem though. Is this the same thing as an Automatic watch? If so, you may find some people wanting to merge your article into that one. --Tractor kings fan 17:53, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I see your point. An Automatic watch does not require to be wound by the pendant on the side of a watch, but by simply shaking the watch winds the watch automatically. The interior of an Automatic Watch houses a swivelling "plate", that swivels on an axes when the watch is shaken horizontally. --- Steven Suttles Stone

Gotcha. You may want to put this distinction in your article. Good work. Cheers, --Tractor kings fan 17:58, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Allright, I'll work on it after a while. I'm in Computer Programming Class at Junior High School, about to log off. Lol! --- Steve

That a boy. Using those public school dollars wisely. :-). --Tractor kings fan 19:20, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Also

I've made a couple of minor changes to your article. I've changed the title to Mechanical watch, decapitalizing the "w", as that is how the WP:MOS recommends you title articles. Also, User:Psychonaut had placed an uncategorized tag on your article, so I added about five categories to your article and removed the tag. I also put a link to your article in Automatic watch. These improvements ensure that more people will see your article. Cheers, --Tractor kings fan 19:41, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

However, your next move, before adding any more content whatsoever, has to be adding appropriate references and sources. See WP:SOURCE for how to do this. This is going to get people to question your article if you don't. Cheers, --Tractor kings fan 19:56, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

I understand, and I will try to execute your recommendations. Thanks for your help, Steven Suttles Stone.

[edit] Fantastic

Looking great Steven. Remember the sources, and you shall be fine. Even a reliable website could be used as a source, or of course a book if you have one. --Tractor kings fan 21:09, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't know any sources at the moment. I just wrote it from my own knowledge. Thanks for your input, --- Steven Suttles Stone

That is generally frowned upon as original research. So try to find some or you run the risk of it being deleted. Cheers., --Tractor kings fan 22:08, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Ten-Four, I'll get right onto it. I've been busy watching the new copy of Borat lately, haven't had time to do much. It's a great movie, have you seen it? --- Steve

Oh hell yes it's fantastic. If you've seen Da Ali G Show, he's making a new movie about Bruno. --Tractor kings fan 07:58, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I've watched many episodes of the Ali G Shows. They're great, but I do think Borat and its series is the best. --- Steven Suttles Stone

[edit] About Citing Sources

About Original Research, there's nothing to really "research" about the interior movements on a watch. It's not like researching about the Civil War, or something historical in mind. It is reality. And if I do not have any "sources" to support my knowledge on watches, then does that mean reality has to be defied? --- Steven Suttles Stone

Huh? Well, I'm not one to defy reality. In my view, though, someone. somewhere, has written a book on this subject. Or put up a website about it. The knowledge you have came from somewhere. Even if you were just told about watches, someone has written about them. Although we're not talking about the Civil War, it's still an area of human knowledge. I'd say they are equally "real." Cheers, --Tractor kings fan 22:16, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I see what you mean. Although you may not know this, but I service mechanical watches, and am close to an expert on this deal, so I wasn't really told, I found out for myself. I will find ways to site sources, but is it important to ask administrators of the to-be-cited websites permission to use their sites as links in Wikipedia? --- Steven Suttles Stone

Hi Steven. It looks awesome! You're doing great. --Tractor kings fan 22:59, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much, I'm trying to keep improving it, but I don't know what else to add. Also, how do you post the current date or current time after your name? --- Steve

If you sign your name using four tildas (or just press the signature button above the edit window (it's the one that looks like a signature) that shoud do it. I'm going out of town for the next four days, so I won't be editing. But if you have any questions, I have a friend named User:The Hybrid who is very knowledgeable and should be able to help you. Have a good weekend! --Tractor kings fan 00:07, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, -- The Hyb rid 00:31, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks a lot for the advice, Tractorkingsfan And The Hybrid, I am looking forward to make a few minor as well as major edits over the course of the weekend. Thanks, --Steven Suttles Stone 00:46, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

The Hybrid's a solid dude, so you should be fine. I made a change to Mechanical watch, I put in a "see also" section and added an "external links" section for your external links. Looks good. Later! --Tractor kings fan 00:48, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I'll help whith whatever I can. Feel free to ask me a question at any time. Peace, -- The Hyb rid 00:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

All Righty, have a good time! Later, my friend! Thanks for your revisions and additions to my article. ---Steven Suttles Stone 00:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, Hybrid. I'll come to you if I need help. G'Day, ---Steven Suttles Stone 00:53, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] User page

Based off of a simple google search, you release way too much information about yourself, whoever you may be, on your user page. I believe it is best if you were to start off from scratch and not use many identifying details.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 07:33, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I would also request that you do not sign with your real name.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 07:35, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I see and understand what you mean. I will monitor what I write and make sure that it is in the "identity" appropriate level. But also, I do not have a problem with releasing my name, I think it is appropriate to the level that most other people do not have the middle name of Suttles, and that I have my own Wikipedia Identity. --- Thanks, -- Steven Suttles Stone 17:18, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Age (if it's under 18) is generally an issue, and that combined with location is a major issue. You can read what you can and cannot have on a user page at Wikipedia:User page—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 21:02, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

If the problem was name and location, then you jumped the gun in deleting his page. To quote WP:UP#What can I have on my user page: Some people add information about themselves as well, possibly including contact information (email, instant messaging, etc), a photograph, their real name, their location, information about their areas of expertise and interest, likes and dislikes, homepages, and so forth. You could have simply asked him to remove his age, and then he would have been within policy, not that age is outside of policy by any means. If you wanted him to shorten it, then you could have just asked. You should have waited to delete his page, and I think that you should undelete it so that he has something to work off of. -- The Hyb rid 22:48, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi Steven, I'm back. What's the status of this discussion? Is it going on anywhere else? --Tractor kings fan 22:28, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm not Steven, but it doesn't look like it. -- The Hyb rid 22:29, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice, Hybrid. Also, hello to Tractorkingsfan. No, I have layed off of this subject, I've been busy lately. -- Steven Suttles Stone 22:38, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't think Ryulong has viewed you comment on this page either, Hybrid. I think I or you shall inform him of your message here on this page? -- Steven Suttles Stone 23:08, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

If you want to pursue this further feel free. I would, -- The Hyb rid 23:09, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Well, my intention is to restore the original contents, but leaving out anything that may or may not be linked to identity-theft, or further problems. I have nothing against putting my own full name, philosophies, etcetera, but since Ryulong is making such a big deal about it, I am sure I would have to go by his standards, as he is an Administrator, and I do not want to get myself kicked off or banned. I have to say that I don't agree with his stand on this situation, but he wants it this way, and I don't want to create any problems. What's your input? -- Steven Suttles Stone 23:12, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

You won't get blocked. Policy doesn't exist on the subject of age, and everything else is permissible within the manual of style, so you have nothing to worry about. Admins aren't wiki-Gods. Peace, -- The Hyb rid 23:30, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

I understand what you mean. Read the very bottom of the page in the category below for further updates on this subject. -- Steven Suttles Stone 23:34, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

I have contacted Ryulong. If there is a policy against it I think that we should hear it from him before defying him. Peace, -- The Hyb rid 23:37, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Allright, I have nothing against him, just his attitude. Let's see what happens. -- Steven Suttles Stone 23:43, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't think that he has an attitude. I just think that he was trying to enforce a policy that he didn't read over entirely, or hadn't read in a while. He seemed polite enough, and I'm willing to assume that he just didn't notice my response, though it seems foolish to remove a talk page from your watchlist when you had just deleted the user's page. I'm sure that this will be a cordial experience, and that policy will win out in the end. Peace, -- The Hyb rid 23:48, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Don't care. Have fun with the restored history.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 00:02, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Ryulong's last sentence puzzles me. Is he being helpful, or is he being arrogant? That's a pretty hard sentence to decode. But I'd like to thank him for restoring the history and access to the contents of my user page. G'Night, -- Steven Suttles Stone 05:46, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Don't worry about it. He did the right thing; let's just leave it at that, and not worry about why he did it. Peace, -- The Hyb rid 06:04, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE

Regarding what you said on my talk page, I agree with Hybrid and yourself that your page shouldn't have been deleted. I don't think Ryulong's opinion is likely to change on the subject, though. I think if you are inclined to recreate your page, you should do so. It wouldn't be a blockable offense. If you want to take out your age information, which I think is Ryulong's main concern, then go ahead. Basically, it's totally your choice. If you feel like talking to Ryulong would be helpful, as long as you remain civil you won't get in trouble. --Tractor kings fan 23:28, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Ha! I understand what you mean by remaining civil, that's the same with everyone else. I will restore everything back to their original locations. Please give me time to find the right 5¼ inch Floppy disk that I stored it on, though, that may take time. Ryulong can be unreasonable at times, but as you go higher in rank, I guess you get that kind of "I'm The Warden" kind of attitude, in which I think he should dispose of. Anyway, thanks for the help! -- Steven Suttles Stone 23:33, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

There are no ranks here. All users are (at least nominally) equal. —Psychonaut 14:50, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

But that doesn't give us all the rights to humiliate others and delete others' pages with their own intentions, without asking the user him/herself. I do not appreciate that factor, but because these are administrators, they do have certain access to "rights" to humiliate others and cause unnecessary problems. -- Steven Suttles Stone 17:55, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

If that is their intention, which it wasn't in this case, then they loose their admin powers, and may even get banned. This was a simple, now corrected, mistake by a relatively new admin. There is no longer anything to be concerned or upset about. This will not happen to you again, and I bet that he learned from his mistake. Peace, -- The Hyb rid 22:10, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Oh, he's new? I don't quite think so. Most admins are like that. Well, there's no need to create a big deal over something like this. It is my firm message that all Administrators shall be equally speaking towards other users in an Encyclopedia setting, and ask for permission to do something, (in this case remove the contents of my user page), before they do it, and make sure that it is appropriate, without causing others trouble. I have nothing against him. -- Steven Suttles Stone 23:00, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

He isn't new to Wikipedia. He just hasn't had the admin tools for a long period of time. Actually, most admins aren't like that. You just don't notice the good ones because they realize that they are just regular users with a few more buttons, and that everyone else is their equal. -- The Hyb rid 23:08, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

I understand what you mean. I have noticed that there are many good Admins out there, not just the ones that intimidate you a whole lot and don't listen to you much. Thanks for helping take care of this situation. G'Night, -- Steven Suttles Stone 03:11, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

No problem. Peace, -- The Hyb rid 04:31, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Have a Good Trip!

I guess that says it all. --Tractor kings fan 06:54, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Allright, I'll be leaving on Sunday. Talk to ya later. -- Steven Suttles Stone 17:40, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

I'll also bring back a whole lot of pictures, and I'll post them here. G'Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone 23:59, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your Newest Article

Hi Steven, how was Vegas? I was there in October. I looked at your article. I haven't given it in-depth attention yet, but I'm consistently impressed by your article writing. I wish I knew as much about as many things. I'll give you some notes as I look at it more. But on first read, it looks quite good. --Tractor kings fan 20:57, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey thanks, Tractorkingsfan. Las Vegas was great, stayed at the Aladdin, went to Death Valley, Pahrump, to Hoover Dam (I took the tour, went down to the generators), and spent a lot of time watching shows in downtown Las Vegas, including "Mamma Mia!", "Cirque Du Soleil: KA", and the "Drifters:Coasters:Platters" oldtime musical favorites show. Because I'm not over 21, I could not legally play the slot machines, so my mom went on to play the slots while I took an afternoon nap in the hotel room. When she came back, she had $95 in her hands, and told me that she won it out of just 25 cents in a 25 cent Slot Machine!! Wow, you know how they say it, the house always wins, but not always!! What a lucky pull on that slot machine. We had a great time. Except on the day going back to California, Las Vegas was a windstorm chaos, dust and sand flying all throughout the strip, oh man, things were flying all over the place! But we made it back all right, so that was good. Spring break was quite a lot of fun! G'Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone 21:04, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reply

Hi Steven. Glad to hear you are doing well, and keeping up with editing. I edited more than I ever had in April, but in the start of May I've had to work a lot. I assure you that, since your unblock, you have been a great contributor, and I have faith you will only improve. I have a question. In your post on my page, you discussed some of the problems with the way your opinions towards certain groups have been perceived. I wonder, have these opinions changed or mellowed in any way? Or have you simply not voiced them because of the venue? Please speak freely. --Tractor kings fan 20:40, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the insight, Tractorkingsfan. I truly appreciate that I am looked at as someone positive in the Wikipedia community. I will continue to become a better editor, as a person who holds better opinions that can stand by himself when he needs to, as well as support others when they have problems. No, those opinions haven't changed at all, I still do have a very "right-wing", "militaristic" style of solving problems and situations, and my biases keep growing. But with pressure from the opposing force and negative consequences when mentioning these biases in public situations, such as Wikipedia, has gotten me into unnecessary trouble. After knowing that these consequences could lead to me getting blocked, I reconsidered not to add such quotes or ideas to my user page, but keep a more mellow stance in the public where many opinions differ. G'Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone 00:50, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I understand. As far as the "Steven Stone" issue, that appears to be a real character. I googled "Steven Stone Pokemon" and a bunch of stuff came up that seems to validate what is said in the article. So no, you aren't the victim of a prank or hoax here. Just a coincidence. On many articles which list a variety of different entities, any individual entity on that list, when searched, will redirect to the list. Pretty common stuff, nothing to worry about. Cheers, --Tractor kings fan 03:18, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for helping me get that straight. I truly appreciate your support. G'Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone 03:26, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Archive

Regarding user talk pages, it is best to not delete notices, but instead, to archive them. You can find how to do this at Wikipedia:How to archive a talk page. Actively erasing non-harassing personal messages is often interpreted as hostile. In the past, this kind of behavior has been viewed as uncivil. For this reason, if your deletion of notices and concerns on your user talk page is to keep the "clutter" down, I suggest that you instead create archives for these messages. --Geniac 15:45, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your input, but thinking of not archiving and erasing personal messages as hostile is not in my opinion. There are many users who completely blank their User Talk page, or do otherwise to erase the contents. I have more important editings to do rather than worry about my Talk page. Thanks for your input, much appreciated, -- Steven Suttles Stone 19:54, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Recent Vandalism To My User Page By School Colleague

My page was automatically reverted by a bot after spotting an IP address deleting the contents of my User Page. Please block the IP address shown in the logs so that my user page cannot be "wiped" clean by someone who may do so. Thanks for your support, -- Steven Suttles Stone 20:04, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Steven

Please do not block the IP address of the last edit. This is a mistake. Instead, block the first IP address ever to use this account. Thank you for your help.

No, it was not a mistake. Please do not vandalize the contents of my user page, as it is uncivil, and is downright stupid. Please stop being ignorant and stop these acts or the IP address will be banned until further notice. -- Steven Suttles Stone 20:09, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

I forgot to thank you for fixing the The HP Photosmart M425 Digital Camera article. I really appreciate it, because it was my fisrt article created. Thanks again. ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 16:23, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Allright, my friend. I hope you'll get better at editing, as well as become a better contributor to the Wikipedia Foundation. If you've got any questions, or anything that's needed to be said, just talk to me here. I'll give you all the help that you need. All the best, -- Steven Suttles Stone 18:47, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Do you know how to reference, when writing an article about a book? ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 17:16, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

If you're writing about a subject and need to cite your resources, don't cite them in your main article section, make a section called "Resources" or something related, and parenthetically cite your book, website, article, etcetera. Make sure you use proper formatting, though. G'Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone 04:11, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Well, its a biography, on a Wrestler; and the fact that I'm in high school and I can't cite the references / sources!!!! I need help. Here's the article that I'm talking about: Heartbreak & Triumph book. Can you check it out!!! If its no bother to you? -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 14:59, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Not at all! I'll check it out! Hell I'm in 8th Grade; but the English and Social Studies teachers filled me in with MLA citations and other ways to cite your resources. Go check out Citation, it'll give you guides to cite your sources. Just go ahead and cite them the way you know it, and I'll proofread it after you've cited your sources. I'll fix them if you've had any problems. Cheers, -- Steven Suttles Stone 17:07, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Also, you don't necessarily have to cite books, if you don't need to. An easy way out is to add links to websites or to other materials, and link them with the link command on the bar above in your edit. I don't have much time to proofread your article, because I am busy preparing for a trip to the far east. I hope I can assist you further more after my vacation, which will cover the whole length of an average "Summer Vacation", and I will be back in September. Good Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone 17:16, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Oh, that's cool!!!! I'm thankful that you've taken your time to give me some tips!!! Thank YOU. And, have a wonderful vacation!!!! I'll talk to you later!!!! ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 20:01, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Any time, my friend. If you need any further help, just contact me here, and I'll be willing to help ya out. G'Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone 21:58, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey Steven, did someone vandalize your page again? ––– Ryan

Yang in our class did. But Feydey fixed and reverted the edit. G'Night, -- Steven Suttles Stone 04:27, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Glad to hear you got it fixed. Did you talk to him? What did he do to it? --- Ryan

Ah, he just blanked the page. G'Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone 19:06, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Ryan, keep checking your emails. I left a message there. Have a good summer!, -- Steven Suttles Stone 19:25, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Have a good trip! --- Ryan 15 June 2007

Thanks, and keep checking your emails. I just responded to your latest reply. -- Steven Suttles Stone 01:15, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] It would be an honor

If you would sign my autograph book. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 22:14, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Sure. I'll be glad to. Thanks, -- Steven Suttles Stone 00:07, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Oh its fine. Thank YOU for signing. I wanted you to be the first one to sign, but the user before you found the page. But I'm just glad you signed. How was your summer? Thanks AGAIN. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 00:27, 01 September 2007 (UTC)

It was great, I went to Hawaii, Japan, Finland, and Italy over the course of 3 months. The trip was tiring, but overall I had a great time. I hope to make one of these long trips again soon. Cheers, -- Steven Suttles Stone 00:29, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

That must've been a lot of fun. How's Japan this time of year? Just asking, since I've only been to England!! -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 00:42, 01 September 2007 (UTC)

It's nice and sunny, but it's really humid over there. It was only 80 degrees one day but it felt like 110! Humidity really raises the feeling of the heat up about 20 degrees. It's really hot over there right now, but the temperatures go down after they get into the fall. Fall to about Spring is the best time to go there. Cheers, -- Steven Suttles Stone 00:48, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Why?

So why change your name? -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 23:34, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm turning 15 and I thought my name was too corny for my age. Lol. G'Night, -- Steven Suttles Stone 02:30, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Name Usage

Hey Steven sorry Suttles it's Forrest sorry about the whole contacting before using this page but why did you put me on I've been getting a lot of criticism at school about it because people do look on your discussion page a lot. I'm not saying don't do it but just tell me next time so I don't get caught by surprise and a little angry (not any more though). See you at school tomorrow. P.S. I do like the name Suttles better than Steven good name change idea. Maybe I'll change my name to Charles because that's my middle name too and it sounds more formal but it is also more common unlike Suttles which is a name I've never heard before. -fd46038 (The Forrest you know at school)

Hey Forrest, I'm sorry about all of this. Who have you been getting criticizm from? I meant it in no way that you would be angry. I didn't even know that many people came to visit my user page. I'll seeya tomorrow, and we can go from there. Once again, sorry. I do like Suttles a lot more. A lot of my closest friends call me Suttles instead of Steve or Steven. I love it. It gives me character. Charles fits you perfectly, man. That's a pretty cool middle name. I think you should go by that! Cheers, G'Night, -- Steven Suttles Stone 05:39, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] It's been a while

How's it going, Steven? The Hybrid T/C 05:58, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Everything's going very well around my life. My father and I just purchased a beautifully restored 1966 Jaguar Mk. II for $1000. It was a heck-of-a deal from a private owner. I've been driving that around, we've just got to do more work on the clutch mechanism and reservoir, plus some upholstry needs to be redone, but other than that, it runs great, 4 spd. manual, right-hand drive, couldn't be better.

I've not seen Tractorkingsfan back since he described his comeback and his new work at his bar, but no contributions or any word from him ever since. I'm sure he's busy with this own life, as I am busy with mine. I'm finding it harder to find time to contribute to the Wikipedia Foundation now that I'm in High School. Ah well, these are times to get good grades, have fun, and look out for your future. Seeya Hybrid, nice talking to ya, G'Night, -- Steven Suttles Stone 06:15, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Night, and that does sound like a killer deal on that car. Have fun in high school, and don't get a job too quickly, since you'll never stop working until you retire. Cheers, The Hybrid T/C 06:20, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Ha! Of course. I'm doing a lot of construction work for my neighbor, who's a very good friend of mine, and I am being payed as well as being rewarded with old machinery, antiques, and vintage computers. I want to be an airline pilot when I'm older, so I'm striving for excellence. I'll talk to ya later, G'Night, -- Steven Suttles Stone 06:54, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks Hybrid For The Revert

I guess that says it! I'm still curious to know who wrote the encoded names of my 2 classmates, and where. Well, I might find out later. Many thanks, -- Steven Suttles Stone 03:14, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

You'll light up a smile. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 22:27, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

The only problem is, now I don't know who to give one to. I'd give you one, but is that allright? G'Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone (talk) 18:45, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:DK_Energetik_Palace_of_Culture_-_Pripyat_-.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

I have no idea who took it, it was simply on a friend of mine's website as a tribute to the anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster. I do not have the time at the moment to deal with this, but if it is as much importance for you to have to look into every detail of the photograph when it's already been there in the article for many months, I believe your action was unnecessary. Please deal with it as you please. It is a good photograph indeed, and I would like to help you out, but I believe it is best to leave things as is, instead of provoking the situation by bringing it up to a busy person like me when it's already been in the article for many months. I still do not know well how to use the tags, so I would advise someone to re-place the tags for me. Thanks, and Good Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone (talk) 05:17, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Africa

Didn't you say you'd add information on Africa to your page? Where is it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Blinkadyblink (talk • contribs) 22:03, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

That's a negative. Please refer to the Africa article edits for further updated information. Good Day, -- Steven Suttles Stone (talk) 04:18, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Write a book!

Hi Steve, I'm Kit Gilchrist (fifteen like you) and I was reading your user page. Seriously the funniest thing I've read in a while - you have a definite flair for comedic writing. Whether or not that was your intent, your personality reminded me of the boy in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time. And I think you should write a book. Just a thought. Kitkatcrazy (talk) 12:28, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for viewing my User Page. Yes, many people do think that I have quite an abstract, dry sense of humor with an interesting manner attached with it. I think I might write a book, as the way I write really flows out the way I want it to. Everything I wrote in my User Page is true. I will erase the part about me driving underage when I apply for my permit in some months time, but everything else is my pure opinion. It's just I haven't been editing pages like I used to because of my schoolwork load, and extracurricular activities. I would like to get back with the program and be a better contributor to the Foundation rather than being dormant.

By the way I saw your User Page, and I am absolutely amazed by your photographs. You have got some serious technique and talent with handling the perfect angles and right-on lighting. I have never seen anything like it from someone my age. I enjoy filming, as well as taking many pictures with my Canon S410, wherever I go. I am a world traveler, so where I take photographs and how I take them is the vital point in extracting the best angle and most applause from the general public. I hope to see you around. Seeya, -- Steven Suttles Stone (talk) 19:37, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] More details please

Howdy, it's been a while my friend. Could you perhaps email me a few more details. I'm not too clear on what exactly has happened, but it sounds serious. If it seems worth it after getting all of the details, I can call in some favors for you. Cheers, Sexy Sea Bass 03:50, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Interesting situation. With your permission, I will forward that email on to a friend of mine. I also recommend taking Alison's advice. What she recommended is the best course of action. With your permission to forward the email, however, I may be able to get a watered-down form of what your friend requested in case his request fails. I cannot, however, discover or release IP addresses. As much as Wikipedia denies it, there are certain things only admins can be trusted to know. However, I have a workaround for this that I have just recently patented and copyrighted. It's called, "having your admin friends do things for you." It's amazing how well it works :P Sexy Sea Bass 05:24, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

No problem, go right ahead. We need to get down to the bottom of this. Cheers, -- Steven Suttles Stone (talk) 07:32, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
