Hello Sereh888! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I think its very important for you to browse through some of the links below so as to become familiar with how Wikipedia works. If you need any help you can ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and another Wikipedian will show up shortly. Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking Image:Wikisigbutton.png or by typing four tildes "~~~~"; this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you're already loving Wikipedia and plan on becoming a Wikipedian you might consider being "adopted" by a more experienced editor, just paste {{Adoptme}} into your userpage and you will gladly be adopted! You might also consider joining a WikiProject so as to collaborate with others in creating and improving articles of your interest. Click here for a directory of all the WikiProjects.

[edit] BBC-sitcoms-stub

Hi - it has come to our notice that you have recently created a new stub type. As it clearly states at WP:STUB, at the top of most stub categories, on the template page for new Wikiprojects and in many other places on Wikipedia, new stub types should be proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies, and whether better use could be made of a WikiProject-specific talk page template.

In the case of your new stub type, it is alreof a type very similar to several previously deleted. Television programmes are split by type of programme, not by the type of channel they may be shown on in one country in the world. there are also not the standard threshold number of articles which would instantly be able to take the new stub type. r new stub type is currently listed for deletion at WP:SFD - please feel free to make any comments there as to any reason why this stub type should not be deleted. And please, in future, propose new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 06:04, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edit count

You already have links to the guidelines of wikipedia which should help get you started, but I thought perhaps you would like to see your edit count, which is continually updated by the system and can be viewed here. Kind regards, SGGH 15:52, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: adoption

You're very welcome! I've removed the adoption welcome thing from here (I hope you don't mind) 'cause for some reason further edits to your talk page were all falling inside that purple box and I figured that might end up annoying you! Hope you don't mind (the welcome tag didn't contain any real useful information anyway).

But, to get to the point: What are your interests? If your a student, what subjects to you do? There's a whole range of wikiprojects out there that you can join, to help devealop your wikipedianing (I make up a lot of words like that) in a specific direction. For instance, Wikipedia:WikiProject Law Enforcement or Wikipedia:Wikiproject Military History are the two that I'm involved in, but there are countless around the place.

Also, if you like, I could give you some help with your user page? While it isn't article editing, and some people thing its purely a superfluous use of someones time, I know that making my user page how I liked it made me more enthusiastic about working on wikipedia as a whole. Userboxes are a good start, if you are so inclined.

Have a browse around and read a couple of articles that your really interested in is what I would suggest, to get the flavour of article writing. If you have any questions, click on this link where I've created a user subpage dedicated to any questions you make have. I await your response, SGGH 22:46, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Come across any problems yet? SGGH 15:08, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Hey again! Welcome back, what's new? SGGH 23:41, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] a very useful link

Wikipedia:Articles for creation, very helpful! SGGH 14:45, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] SGGH says...

Not being rude or anything, But I would find it a lot easier if SGGH edited here as ⅞ of the time you are writing! It would save a mess of a talk page from cleanup. Sereh888 20:50, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Of course, no problem. SGGH 16:21, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Oh by the way, your signature needs to be [[User:Sereh888|The WikiWhippet]] to make it link to your userpage, I have fixed the one below for you :) SGGH 16:22, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
I know. I had to leave just after, but thanks a lot for the change!

(I didn't want it for to long)The WikiWhippet 06:08, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

You can look at Wikipedia:Changing username if you want to change it fully SGGH 20:03, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi Sereh, my RFA was successful. Thanks for your support! SGGH 20:42, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
I like the new name, and your userpage has certainly exploded in a menagerie of colour! SGGH 20:03, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Changed signature

I have change my signature(nickname).

The WikiWhippet   (deeds)

:May I suggest that you move the bold-italic for "deeds" inside the link.

[[Special:Contributions/Sereh888|'''''(deeds)''''']]

The formatting is throwing the tallying bot out. 10:18, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chat

User SGGH has been nominated for adminship. You may particpate in the process, if you wish here:Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/SGGH

[edit] Conflict?

i am not sure what you are talking about. I was discussing tunakdude's contributions, not anything to do with vandalising the sandbox. Cheers, XVreturns 23:41, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] wow...

Your talk page is definitely... Colorful. :-S

Anyways, welcome to wikipedia. Happy editing :-) (sorry, just never seen you around. And the mass of distracting colors caught my eye. They still ache).... :-) Nateland 03:52, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Maybe it's a server bug. (Lols. Perhaps)...Nateland 04:40, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] User box creator with template

I noticed you made a userbox here are two useful userbox creators you might be interested in

[edit] Danke

Thank you for cleaning up my recent addition to Spooky (disambiguation)... and after seeing your username, I'm going to have Devo's "Whip It" in my head all night. - Ugliness Man 05:50, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "correction" of direct quotes

Hi -- while cleaning up misspellings and improper punctuation is usually a good thing, cleaning these things up from inside direct quotes is not. Direct quotes should be left as they are. Thanks. -- Antaeus Feldspar 21:01, 9 April 2007 (UTC)


[edit] userbox creator

simply put the location where you want it to be saved to it will then load a template for you

also plz tell me the location of your new userbox on my talk page i like userboxes!


do you understand the instructions i gave above? yeah (The WikiWhippet)


For example if i want to make a userbox about tigers you put your account then /userboxing or /userboxes then the name of the userbox so User:The WikiWhippet/userboxes/tigeruserbox also you can host your userboxes off of my account so User:Java7837/userboxing/youruserbox is okay with me


awesome userbox!!!!!!


[edit] suggestion on your userbox

' Thank God You're Here! I thought you'd never read this userbox!

{{User:Java7837/userboxing/thankgod}} i made a version of your userbox which is easier to read or was the purpose to make it hard to read?

[edit] Your bizarre message

In re Black Cut message you left on my talk page: 1) My "experiment" was marking the page w/ speedy delete tag, which obviously isn't a test. 2) You did not revert the edit, you apparently just added Bold text to the bottom of the article.

So -what's the scoop? SkierRMH 05:22, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Apologies, evidently I hit the "B" tab at the top of the article when I tagged the article - didn't even realize it. SkierRMH 05:31, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of your userpage

I saw the AfD for all your subpages (you did have quite a few) but I don't understand how your userpage itself could be deleted, that's not a subpage and everyone has one, and I believe that that delete was a mistake or at least was unfair and incorrect, so I have restored just your main userpage, none of the subpages. SGGH speak! 19:36, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Adoption

Hey there, I've decided to give up adopting now. I haven't had the time to give you the help you might have needed, though I will still be able to answer any questions you might have. There are other adopters with whom you would have better communication :) cheers SGGH speak! 18:18, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Golf Mill Shopping Center
