Thanks very much for pointing out. I shall fix this bug !! --ml:User:Jacob.jose —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jacob.jose (talk • contribs) 16:35, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks again for the patient and detailed explanation of the issue. Very much appreciate it !! I realized the magnitude of the issue only when I completed fixing/reverting the changes made by the bot in around 14 wikis. --19:39, 10 October 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jacob.jose (talk • contribs)

hey

Thanks for all your help with Red vs Blue. u have any idea bout red vs blue season 6? Poolshark48 03:18, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm just a big fan of Red vs. Blue and of the Halo series; I'm not affiliated with either of them in any way, so I don't know what Rooster Teeth Productions has planned, if anything, for machinima made with Halo 3. That said, I would most certainly like to see them produce more excellent comedy, but, as of right now, there's nothing known in the works. — TKD::Talk 03:26, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the help Poolshark48 03:30, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

No problem. Welcome to Wikipedia, and let me know if you have any other questions. Happy editing. — TKD::Talk 03:33, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

sorry if this is way far left.... but anyway, how did u get the DOunut and CAbosse thing on teh bottem left of your user page?Poolshark48 03:37, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Don't worry. It's not too far to the right. My user page uses a powerful feature of the MediaWiki software called templates. Templates are pieces of wiki text that can be reused, without having to copy the same text over and over again. You include a template on another page by placing the name of the template inside double curly braces {{like this}}. In this case, you'd want to type {{User:TKD/Userbox/RvB Donut}} and/or {{User:TKD/Userbox/RvB Caboose}} . — TKD::Talk 03:44, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, right, left..... its not my day... DOnt worry, ill figure out how to put the thing to the left =p —Preceding unsigned comment added by Poolshark48 (talk • contribs) 04:05, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Never mind, im lost... how do i put it to the bottem right?Poolshark48 04:12, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

←<div style="text-align: right">what you want right-aligned goes here.</div> — TKD::Talk 04:25, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

The above looks like:

what you want right-aligned goes here.

Thx, and sorry if im taking your time or making your page look horrible...Poolshark48 04:32, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Not a problem. Happy to help. — TKD::Talk 04:35, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

YOu added templates to your userpage thing... anyway, on my watchlist, what do the positive and negitive numbers represent?Poolshark48 04:39, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

I see that you're not having much luck. Try replacing "text-align" with "float"; that might work better. As for the numbers, that refers to the number of characters added or deleted. That way it's easy to tell if someone is deleting a large chunk of a page or adding a lot of new information. — TKD::Talk 04:41, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Thx...twicePoolshark48 04:45, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Roses are Red, Violets are Blue

I noticed that you redirected the article Roses are Red, Violets are Blue to the article about the poem. I think it's valid to assume people searching for that term would be looking for the poem. However, I also think it's valid that the album have it's own article. To hopefully solve both problems, I've moved the album article to Roses are Red, Violets are Blue (album) and kept your redirect from Roses are Red, Violets are Blue to Roses are red.

Spartan-458

Hey, I have been working with Nicole (Dead or Alive) lately (mostly with referencing and developing a new section) and noticed that the "History" section needs some re-writting so its not a word by word copy of this, since you are both a member or WikiProject Halo and a copyeditor I was wondering if you can rewrite this in a way that the size of the section is kept but it avoids any copyvio, thanks for your time. - Caribbean~H.Q. 04:03, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

I developed a alternate section and posted it on my sandbox, I somehow managed to keep the size but the prose was done with midnight brain so its probably quite bad. - Caribbean~H.Q. 05:37, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Have you seen Master Chief lately? something is different about it, its probably that ugly bronze star up there... just kidding, congrats on taking this to FA. - Caribbean~H.Q. 04:05, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Great work, I was thinking that this can be quite close to its maximum potential content-wise speaking, and as long as a few more sources are added its going to be as close to GA material as it can be, the only remaining bit that any reviewer could ask for is for Haloid and that is considered fancruft. - Caribbean~H.Q. 19:16, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

The prose is in the best condition it could possibly be, I will add a few references and place this on GAC, anyways if there is somthing that needs to be done the huge candidate backlog will give us enough time to work with it. I'm not sure if we can source that the Hayabusa cameo is a result of this project, but maybe we can say Nicole is the first of two characters to have a franchise crossover between the two companies. - Caribbean~H.Q. 03:59, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the great work copyediting this article it was definitely of great help in the improvement towards GA, cheers! - Caribbean~H.Q. 01:16, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Redirect of Gnomeregan

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Gnomeregan, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Gnomeregan is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Gnomeregan, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

copyrights

where can i e mail a orignal song i did on mario album to prove my copyrights credirs —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.5.146.13 (talk) 16:15, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, but permissions-en@wikimedia.org is the email address for intellectual property issue. Note, however, that mere possession of a copyrighted work is not proof that you hold the copyright to it. It wouldn't be helpful just to email them a copy of the song. — TKD::Talk 16:40, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Help

Hey. I need some help. I can't for the life of me figure out how to give a warning to those who constantly vandalize. I've read over and the Wikipedia vandalism guide, but it doesn't seem to give a solid answer as to how to actually do. I see that many users who give warnings to those who do (vandalize) do so using TW. How can I do this? Thanks.Beem2 (talk) 20:34, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Dude

Didn't you read the reviews for Halo 3?? You still say 'very postive reviews' whilst being neutral: your just stating that the reviews were very positive, as they were! Or is the use of adjectives used to further describe the success of a franchise disallowed on Wikipedia???

Copyedit request

Hi, I was wondering whether you could copyedit the article Holden, which is currently a featured article candidate. The remaining concerns are to do with the prose, and If you could take a look, it would be greatly appreciated. OSX (talk • contributions) 09:24, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Spiffier triple crown, new awards available

The standard triple crown.

Hi, I've been sprucing up the triple crown awards. Here's the new version of the standard triple crown you've already earned. Feel free to replace your old one with this if you like the new version better. I've also introduced two new triple crown awards for editors who've done a lot of triple crown work: the Napoleonic and Alexander the Great edition awards. If you're active in a WikiProject, check out the new offer for custom WikiProject triple crowns. I'll make those upon request if five or more editors qualify. See User:Durova/Triple crown winner's circle for more information. Thanks for your hard work, and cheers! Durova^Charge! 22:06, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
