Re: Unref template

It's a valid suggestion to date the unref template. I don't for two reasons:

I don't think it's that important.
I know that SmackBot will take care of it.

Thanks for the suggestion. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 03:47, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

SNCFT

I do not understand your query about 3 pages being the same: Tunisian Railways, SNCFT, and Societe... are all the same subject: so I need three headers to link them into the article. Otherwise, I write something about Tunisian Railways, and tomorrow somebody will write another article about SNCFT, and months/years later somebody will have to merge the mess.Ekem (talk) 04:16, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Environmentarianism

Why did you so calously review my article on environmentarianism. Although I admit that I made up the word, I am very serious about it's definition and practice. It is my first post on wikipedia however I don't really know what is necessary for a legit article, so maybe I committed a format error as well. Let me know whats up, thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by IHUC41 (talk • contribs) 17:20, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Hey!

Sorry about the long response times, but I've been really busy in the past bit. Now, to create a userbox;

{{userbox|boxcolor|textboxcolor|[[Image:Image.format|imagesize]]|Text}}

That's the basic code. For your signature, you can control font size with various tags; I find that works. For height changes, use to make it lower and to make it higher. Cheers, Master of Puppets _{Call me MoP!☺} 00:53, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

You could try creating a sig that holds your page, then transcluding the page into your preferences (for example, {{subst:User:Basketball110/mysig}}), which is what I do (because my sig is too complex). Master of Puppets _{Call me MoP!☺} 13:50, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

If you'd like to use it, just substitute in the parameters and include it on a page. For example;

Omg ubx

Hope that helps! Cheers, Master of Puppets _{Call me MoP!☺} 06:41, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Reflection

Church, the Universal Sacrament and Way of Salvation (Reflective Analysis)

“The Church is a gathering of persons, called by the Father, forming in a communion with Christ, who is present in Word and Sacrament, and empowered by the Holy Spirit; it is guided by the successors of the apostles (Bishops), to be present in a determined place and time as the sign and means to bring God's salvation, which is offered to all who lovingly await the coming of God's Kingdom at the end of time. (Believe, Ardusso, # 20)

The Church is the living presence and the visible action of the Holy Trinity in this world to converge us to our fulfillment. God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are one God but different persons who have different functions for one purpose; it is to save us. We can see their saving actions in the Church, the bride of Jesus, and it is handed on the apostles and their successors (Bishops). It is accord to Believe by Ardusso # 20. It says there that the Church is a gathering of persons, called by the Father. This means that all in the Church, which is fitted to its literal meaning which is a convocation or assembly ( CCC # 751) are called by God and if God calls us He is inviting us to be with His protection which is in the Church. In continuation of it, we are called by the Father forming in a communion with Christ. This phrase tells us that the Church is the way to bring us closer to the Son of God to abide with Him and to be united with each other through Christ. It (Believe) informs us that Jesus himself is present in Word and Sacrament. These two manifestations, which are the instruments of Christ to know the will of His Father by the people, are in the Church who is now present and will last forever. Also, it designates the reality of God's mystery of salvation here on earth. Through these, the people called by the Father are able to live out the meaning of what they hear, contemplate and do in the celebration (CCC # 1101). Moreover, by the saving word of God, faith...is nourished in the hearts of the believers ( CCC # 1102 ). The word and the sacrament lead us to what our hearts are seeking, which is the intimate relation with our Creator, Redeemer and Sanctifier. The phrase, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, opens us to the mystery of the work of the Holy Spirit, as the Sanctifier, for our redemption. He is the One who sanctifies the Church, which is us. The third person of the Holy Trinity guides us to the grace of God and to reconcile us to the Father through the sacraments, the works of Him. It is guided by the successors of the apostles (Bishops) approaches us to the hierarchy of the Church and to the power of the chosen ministers of God. Also, it means that they are collaborators of the mystery of redemption. It is in order to continue the mission of the apostles. We call them as the shepherd of the Church of God. The Catechism of the Catholic Church is telling us that they have by the divine institution taken place of the apostles as pastors of the Church, in such wise that whoever listens to them is listening to Christ and whoever despises them despises Christ and him who sent Christ. This means that the Bishops have the authority in leading the Church. Also, they are sharer of God's grace of tending the people of God. “To be present in a determined place and time as the sign and means to bring God's salvation” brings all the members of the Church to know that the Church of God is founded here on earth. It is because of the words, place and time, which describe the creation, the visible world. In connection with this, this phrase effectuates us to the reality of the mission of the Church, which is to be the means of salvation. Hence, the salvation, which is offered to all who lovingly await the coming of God's Kingdom at the end of time, generates in us to be aware of our responsibility. It is to follow the will of the Father and return to Him the love He gives. Likewise, God gives us a hint that everything will end: our suffering, our doubts if there is God, and most specially our longing for Him.

As what writings of St. Cyprian of Carthage say, “Outside the Church there is no salvation”, it signifies that we can only be saved through the visible and invisible Church. In relation to this, Church is not only a structure nor a place of worship but the way to bring us closer to the mystery of our redemption. It tells us the love of God that never ends in the means of the sacraments of the Church. Through this endless love, we persons called by the Father, gathered together in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ with the Holy Spirit, allow us to claim what our God promises us, our deliverance from sin. Henceforth, we should not let ourselves continue to relapse our sins which make us away from the presence of the Lord. Also, we, as called by the Father, should live the implications of what we professed. Through this, we are able to be in the Church, the universal sacrament and way of Salvation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arcvirgos 18 (talk • contribs) 03:23, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Which is your current sig, I think the problem is the order of the small and sub tags, you probably want it like this:

[[User:Basketball110|Basketball]][[User talk:Basketball110|110]][[Special:Contributions/Basketball110|the pages I've messed up completely]] ([[talk]])

Which displays as: Basketball 110 _{the pages I've messed up completely} (talk)

The software is really touchy about the tags :( I had a problem getting it to work too, but I got it eventually.

List of transactions involving the Dallas Mavericks

Hi, I'm not really sure how to help you out on this . . . it seems that you're already sourcing your article using nba.com which is a solid (and relatively complete) source of information. Perhaps you can supplement this with information from ESPN's website -- at least they allow you to extract information by team (see, for example, [1]). Hope this helps at least a little bit! — Myasuda (talk) 17:05, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

One bit of advice -- you can collapse your identical footnotes by using ref names. See what I did for 2005-06, and you can follow this model as you continue to update your article. Good luck! — Myasuda (talk) 00:48, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Go for it!

Regarding List of transactions involving the Portland Trail Blazers--go for it. The Blazers' page is incomplete, obviously--I've been busy off wiki and haven't had time to do much Wikipedia stuff in a while, but go ahead and use the same format for the Mavs or whoever else.

One advantage of this format over a simple almanac is that we can include (referenced, of course), commentary on the trades.

But good luck!

New pages

Ah I don't know I'm actually feeling really tired today, quite lethargic and haven't been able to sustain my usual stamina. I need a sleep I think!! I know I had created about 3,000 pages more than anybody else when I was listed at 11,000 new pages but that was over six months ago. I must have created around 16,000 by now I think. They aren't all stubs though!! Check out Deforestation in Brazil! If any stubs I have created are expanded it will have been a good job done ♦Blofeld of SPECTRE♦ ^$1,000,000? 16:36, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
