Kevin Garnett photo[edit]

Hi, would you mind uploading that photo of Kevin Garnett to a more expressive file name (other than Untitled.jpg)? We don't want people using generic filenames like that on Wikipedia; they keep getting overwritten. (See Wikipedia:Centralized discussion/Generic image file names for more.) KevinGarnett.jpg, for instance, would be safe. Also, you need to provide copyright into for it, too. The old image is available here if you need it. Also, I commented out the link to it in Minnesota Timberwolves, so once you've re-uploaded, you'll need to edit that article to put it back. Thanks! Noel (talk) 02:23, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Wikimedia UK meeting[edit]

Hi Wub, there will probably be a meeting for the purpose of discussing Wikimedia UK this Sunday, which you might like to attend. You could add your name there if so. Cormaggio @ 23:38, 5 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Esperanza Spam[edit]

Hello Esperanzians! A few announcements.

The Advisory Committee election results are in. In tranch A are Acetic Acid and Flcelloguy. In tranch B are Ryan Norton and Bratsche.

My other annoouncement is that our founder, JCarriker, has founded Esperanza's sister project, Wikipediology. I have written two essays here (my name is Matt Binder). My essays are under Teenage Wikipedians and Anon Editors.

On behalf of myself and Jay Carriker and the other wikipediologists, I would appreciate it if you were to join.

Cheers Esperanza! Redwolf24 (talkHow's my driving?) 23:45, 15 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hermione1980's RfA[edit]

Thank you for your support on my RfA; I really appreciate it! I will do my best to live up to the trust you've shown in me. Thanks, Hermione1980 23:31, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA[edit]

WikiThanks!

Hi The wub! Just wanted to thank you for supporting my RfA. I hope I will be able to live up to the confidence placed in me. --Cyberjunkie | Talk 05:00, 19 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You For Welcoming Me[edit]

Well, thank you for welcoming me. I suppose it's worth mentioning that I received your message after doing a little more work on editing the Sonic Crakcers page. Thank you for helping me with the screenshot of the title page.

My biggest concern with the screen shot was "is this public domain?" Since the game was never released, and has no copyright on it, is it copyrighted?

Thank you for your help.

Frapper[edit]

Hi, I found on frapper we're living in the same city. Nice to see there's someone else around. --Cruccone (talk) 23:03, 19 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

CBW RfA[edit]

Just a quick word of thanks for your vote. If you have any concerns over my actions please let me know. CambridgeBayWeather 00:07, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Your RFA[edit]

I saw you crossed out a double vote in your RfA! Now I don't feel bad for being the only one. ;) Since you did a truly admin-like action before being an admin, I hereby award you this Barnstar of Diligence for your extraordinary scrutiny. Titoxd(?!?)

Pikachu[edit]

I have responded to some comments made on my talk page about my use of Pikachu images in RfA. Best regards, Ëvilphoenix Burn! 04:47, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me on that one, POTW has been causing problems all over the place and it's been one of my main projects in the past few days to mentor him, or at least try to. Let me see what's up with the anon. Karmafist 01:21, 25 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You are not my mentor. You will never be my mentor. You have abused your admin powers by blocking me against policy and you continue to tell lies and make personal attacks about me. Andy Mabbett 10:59, 25 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Promotion[edit]

Per your request, I have promoted you to adminship. Please familiarize yourself with the relavant policies before using your new powers, and congradulations. →Raul654 03:01, 25 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • hey...before you go, can you look at the Martin Luther King Jr page? User: Grazon has created a new category "Democratic Socialist." He has listed Michael Moore and MLK in their and removed the prior designation of Socialist from MLKs category. I suspect some POV editing...thanks.Gaff ταλκ 01:43, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You're most welcome. I'm sure you'll make a fine addition to the admin cabal. And I really don't mind you stealing my monkey, especially since you gave due credit. There's no telling, however, if the monkey will mind :>--R.D.H. (Ghost In The Machine) 07:39, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
