HALOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:P
[edit]wats up, This is what i saw in Halo: HALO3 Section "On October 4, 2005, ivanjrn, a user at www.richeswillrust.com deployed a fake script for Halo 3. Bungie declared that the script was in fact fake. - The script can be found at the bottom of ivanjrn's post here. " Looks like that link was to a forum, and this is the real one you stated at my Talk Page, "http://bungie.net/News/Story.aspx?link=5FF714DD-9CFF-4041-9BF9-C7A8EA7B172D"
- Why i deleted it is because, not because the information added was weak, because it was refering to a forum and Bungie. Because, in forums, not many people care about that, they all post bunch of craps, the only way to believe is by an Article.
Anyway
- I am totally sorry for stating this "reverted edits by that useless fool JR98664 back to Halo's normal article. Don't worry Master Chief i got your back:P by the way, that forum sucks:P. Next time go to a junk yard to post i)":P.
I wasn't sure, because sometimes Wiki do act different sometimes, i am not sure if you are the one that actually stated that edit, linking to a forum,
like i said before, me sorry:P
I was acting like a fool before, because i saw the forum:P
by the way
Merry Christmas back to you...good thing you actually know what Christmas is all about
Some people don't actually know what it is, it's just Present to them

PWNED
Thanks for noticing that Chanda Gunn is notable enough to be added to the article, and correcting her DOB. I see you've changed Sports People to Athletes. This is an area where US and UK english differs. We never use the term Athelete to describe player's of sports such as hockey, football, rugby, cricket. That word is reserved for participants in athletic competitions such as running (which you might call track and field athletics). Wikipedia is an international encyclopedia and so should attempt to use words that don't cause confusion. Would you mind if I changed it back? Alternatively, can you think of another term? Colin°Talk 07:54, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
This is now a Featured List Candidate and I'd appreciate your views (mentioning that you've added a name to the list, just to be safe). Cheers, Colin°Talk 16:31, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
License tagging for Image:Sparknotes.png
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Sparknotes.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 02:06, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
Tubists or tuba players?
[edit]Removed cfdnotice, cfd has completed. --Kbdank71 16:37, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
In fact, the discussion covers whether the main category and all of its sub-categories should be Category:Tubaists, Category:Tubists or Category:Tuba players, and so on. Please take any views you have to the discussion page there.
I think that people that know what they are talking about should comment, because there are things being written like, "'tubists' seems clearly incorrect ... to judge by the ... comments."
In the absence of knowledgeable discussion, an outcome based on ignorance can result.
I'm not getting the impression that most of the participants are serious tubists. -- Rico 04:13, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Gorbatschow.JPG, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Gorbatschow.JPG fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason:
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Gorbatschow.JPG, 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 leave a message on the bot operator's talk page 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. --Android Mouse Bot 2 19:09, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
Disputed fair use rationale for Image:USB.png
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:USB.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 07:18, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Dear WikiProject Video games member,
You are receiving this message because you have either Category:WikiProject Video games members or {{User WPVG}} somewhere in your userspace and you have edited Wikipedia in recent months.
The Video games project has created a member list to provide a clearer picture of its active membership.
All members have currently been placed in the "Inactive" section by default. Please remove your username from the "Inactive" listing and place it under the "Active" listing if you plan on regularly:
- Editing video game-related pages in the Article namespace
- Participating in video game-related discussions in the Project namespace (WT:VG, WP:AfD, WP:GAN, etc.)
Ideally, members are encouraged to do both, but either one meets our criteria of inclusion. Members still listed inactive at the beginning of November 2009 may be removed. You may re-add yourself to the active list at any time. Thank you for your help, and we look forward to working with you.
Evergreen PS
[edit]Just wanted to say hi, and thanks for updating the Evergreen Public Schools article. My only small bit of advice is that you shouldn't mark something like that as a minor edit. Minor edits are for things like fixing a misspelling, and never for changing the substance of content. Vertigo Acid (talk) 02:39, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for bringing this to my attention, but one could say that a simple update would be something that "the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute." Sorry for any confusion. jr98664 (talk) 04:07, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Ccfiredog.png
[edit]![⚠](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/Ambox_warning_blue.svg/35px-Ambox_warning_blue.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Ccfiredog.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. SchuminWeb (Talk) 17:35, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
