[edit] La Salle Article
The joke is that the school trying to censor the site. If this is all they have to worry about then they need to find oher things to do. They are afraid that people will vandalize the page. They are right, people will and there will also be people like myself to revert the vandalism. You should see how often the Monsignor Bonner page gets hit by the Ninja guy and the Chuck Norris crew.
They school is missing the point and the beauty of the Wiki. It self regulates just like the free market. Because people have such polar opposite views the articles will always find their way to the middle and remain NPOV. LaSalle needs to spend a little less time playing big brother considering how much you guys pay for tuition. Anyway, thanks for the note and 5 years from now you will laugh at any drama this is causing at the moment. From what I am reading I picture some idiot up on a stage lecturing everyone about their "permanent record"--Looper5920 03:19, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Help has arrived
You wanted some help, here I am! How can I help you? You can ask your questions right here, and I will respond.--Commander Keane 03:21, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, i had to get off for a moment. I noticed on certain user pages, it has "this person is in secondary school"and other such things. How do i get that?

- I think you might be talking about userboxes. Wikipedia:Userboxes has a directroy to find them, and examples of how to use them.--Commander Keane 04:28, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
thank you, i will check it out. sorry about making you wait for so long...
how do i apply user boxes?
- I don't mind waiting. To put a userbox on your userpage you just add something like
{{user hs}}
(that's the highschool one)--Commander Keane 04:44, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
OK, thanks again i have to go now, so don't wait up anymore... It's a school night here in the U.S. *sigh*
- Maybe you can read the after school tomorrow. For ideas about how to align the userboxes take a look at some of the userpages in Category:User ubx-5. You can use a table, or the method outlined at Wikipedia:Userboxes--Commander Keane 04:51, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userboxes
You have too many userboxes to be worthwhile.

[edit] Jimbo's page...
You do realise that by using Jimbo's page, your name will be seen by quite a few people, right? Even those you might not want to see your name are able to see it. Just thought I'd let you know. By the way, welcome to Wikipedia, and cheers! --LV (Dark Mark) 21:38, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
- Just making sure you were aware of that. I wouldn't want you to get in trouble with your school's administration. I hope you enjoy your time here at WP. If you ever have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. That's how we learn. See you around. --LV (Dark Mark) 21:47, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Links
I am so lazy, I'll put the links here. Matt White 05:16, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Recent changes patrol
- Wikipedia:Vandalism
- Wikipedia:NPOV
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types
- It might be better if the links were on your user page instead of your talk page, so it's even easier to access. Just a suggestion, however. Jfingers88 19:56, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
Try this link to the stub types so you can do your recent changes patrolling better with less guesswork. Jfingers88 21:31, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Barnstar
Thanks!! Punkmorten 20:51, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Hello,
You were the first wikipedian to edit my first article, and what I see is all quite likeable. Would you baptize me? Nameme 00:33, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
- Hi there, thanks for the advice with firefox, I will try it. Why do you think I am strange? I just thought it might be fun to ask others for suggestions about my name. Nameme 02:53, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Daniel Gralath
Does not fulfill criteria for speedy revert at WP:SPEEDY. I have reverted it.--File Éireann 23:13, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
- On the other hand, I have deleted Gagevitis as nonsense, it does not need wikifying! Thanks for your help but check more carefully.--File Éireann 23:19, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia_talk:Censorship
A watered-down version of the proposed policy against censorship is now open for voting. Will you kindly review the policy and make your opinions known? Thank you very much. Loom91 13:05, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
