Sorry[edit]

Sorry for stealing your userpage, I like to thing of it as "using without premission" im going to change the color and some other stuff so they dont look the same. It was a cool page! --Colonel pizza von pastry 14:07, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Seeking Editor Review Commentary (If You Like)[edit]

Hi. In conjunction with my RfA (that you voted on), I have created an editor review, to give people a chance to comment as to ways in which I can branch out or alter my contributions to Wikipedia. An RfA seems to solely focus on how one's temperment and contributions relate to how they might handle administrative powers (and the consensus on that seems to be that I'm not quite ready); the editor review opens things up a little more to a larger focus, and I'd love to hear community feedback in the sense of that larger focus, too. If you feel you've already expressed yourself sufficiently when casting your vote, then by all means don't worry about it, but if any thoughts come to mind or if you'd like to expound upon any suggestions or commentary, it would be appreciated. In any case, I appreciated you taking the time to express your opinion on my RfA, and I thank you for that. — WCityMike (talk • contribs) 19:55, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I am back from Yosemite and so is George. --AirforceguyScramble! 22:47, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Problem[edit]

I think I may be having a problem with User:InShaneee, I politley attempted to help this user, and he went ahead and warned me for being uncivil ...twice, I find this to be absurd, I beleive he may have a grudge against me, seeing as you are a just and honest admin I ask for your help, my comments can be found here: [1]--GorillazFan Adam 00:49, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just a note... Master of Puppets is not an admin. --GeorgeMoney T·C 00:51, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for fixing my user wiki page[edit]

Thanks for reverting that for me! BTW< I like your very cool Masters of Orion theme! :) joshbuddytalk 01:54, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstar design[edit]

Hi Mopper. Could you design an Olympics barnstar for me please. I'm hoping to get it approved and give it to a few people. A Barnstar has five points, and there are 5 coloured rings on the Olympic flag, so that could be useful. Thanks, Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 06:33, 31 May 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Just a reminder that the IOC is infamous for suing anyone and everyone that uses the "five rings" symbol without license. Definately avoid that! :D
~Kylu (u|t) 07:18, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hopefully if the rings are not in their usual formation then it doesn't apply.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 07:25, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well, just go for whatever you feel if you haven't already done so.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 02:46, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Response to "Userpage and sometimes about good music" on my user page[edit]

I just noticed you claimed you needed a userpage overhaul, so I came by to see if I could help; I was wondering, what do you have in mind? Something like my design? Or perhaps this, or this. Colour and all can be determined later. Oh, and I agree with your musical tastes 100%; especially the Metallica one, their new stuff is just... ._. Oh well, peace. Master of Puppets That's hot. 17:19, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

I do very much like your user page. Banes's isn't bad either. Yeah, I'm hoping Metallica's theoretical new CD will be better, but I'm betting against it. --Evan Seeds (talk) 00:09, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

How does Wikipedia handle a shell artist?[edit]

I am picking at your Wiki-force wisdom again. User:BernieBeau has a new account intent on selling his books. He refs ISBN #'s but any of the library searches I tried with them came up nil. My guess is that he expects his best sales to come from Wikipedia. Whats the Wiki-way of handling this kind of user? Cheers! Anger22 17:41, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just a random passer-by and I figured I could drop a suggestion. I would propose deletion on basis on notability/advertisement/(if you want to be fun) irreapable POV and if the tag is removed put it through AfD. Then again, I'm most likely wrong. Yanksox 17:44, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh he's pitched his product on a couple of articles.(the articles which match the topics of his books that is) He added some substantial "wordage" to one article. It's quite a lengthy addition from a new user...I am guessing it's a "cut n' paste" from his own published/unpublished work. But who know's? The ISBN's don't link to anything. It all shows through as uncited-original research. Thanks for your 2 pennies. Thanks to Yanksox too. My Wiki-force skills are growing and I am about to roll over 5K edits.(it pays to have a PC in every room in the house!) Cheers! Anger22 18:27, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Careful with the anons[edit]

This edit was largely factually correct, as confirmed by Amazon. So he got one date wrong; that doesn't need reverting. Not all, nor even most, anons are vandals even when they edit a popular page. The CVU IRC bots regularly generate false positives. I'll avoid doling out the obvious blue link here, but editors are innocent until they make themselves guilty, whichever string of characters they edit under. -Splashtalk 02:05, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted userpage[edit]

Thanks for reverting the vandalism to my userpage. I was away for a week while it happened, and thanks for reacting so promptly. Nice userpage yourself, by the way...—Vanderdecken∴∫ξφ 12:08, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I regularly vent my frustration on my userboxes. It's taken me HOURS to get them looking half decent, like they are now. Look at the history for my userpage - most of those edits have been to twaek userboxes. Look at the code for them about two months ago - unintelligable mess. Anyways, thanks for helping. You've restored some of my faith in Wikis! —Vanderdecken∴∫ξφ 13:22, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks MoP![edit]

For the rv and for doing a new total update. I expect it's the same person from earlier with a new IP. I am starting to grow an 'anti' fan club. Fun, fun, fun. Again, thanks and take care! Anger22 02:18, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

hello. You recently left a comment on User:boothy443's talk page about personal attacks. Well now he has started attacking me, and I was wondering if you might impose a temporary block on him. Thank you, Thetruthbelow (talk) 06:27, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

D'oh[edit]

I had this set up for the IP who vandalized your user page but I edit conflicted with AmiDaniel who blocked the IP:

Bell Sympatico won't be too pleased when I tell them about this edit: [3].

Neither will Mum and Dad. I'm sure you know that Sympatico takes stuff like this seriously and has cut off internet service for behaviour before. -- Samir धर्म 10:58, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm guessing the guy's just on a local dynamic IP, but on a somewhat wide range. I'm a little afraid to block it, but I've got it all calculated out if he returns. I think I might just give Bell Canada a call and see if they'd like to either release his personal info or write him a nasty letter for me :-). AmiDaniel (talk) 11:16, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I know Bell takes internet threats/vandalism quite seriously (probably won't "cut off service" but kids get scared easily). Always good to have vandal fighting admins like AmiDaniel. Let us know when you want to become one of those Mopper... -- Samir धर्म 20:44, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WP:figure skating[edit]

Howdy Mopper. I just wanted to give you a heads up on what's happening at this WikiProject. I started WikiProject_Figure_Skating/Temp, and I like the layout (the colors need to be changed, of course. I stole the code from User:Covington). However there are a few problems which you might be able to help me with, if you would be so kind! :) The major one is that the "To Do" list seems to squish itself to the right, and I have no idea why it's doing that. Another is that the "edit" links point to sections other than the ones they're supposed to. If you have any time to look at these problems I'd greatly appreciate it. Of course if you're busy with other things that's ok too. Cheers! --Fang Aili talk 14:40, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism[edit]

Hi,

Just thought I'd let you know, it was my idiot 12-year-old cousin and his idiot friend who were busy vandalizing pages this morning (morning for me anyway) while I was out (off today). I'm going to have to ask someone who knows about computers if there's a way to password protect the system, since the little shits can't be trusted. It's not the first time. However, I should add that everyone with Sympatico internet shares the same IP addresses. I'm not sure why, but everytime I log on I have a different IP. That was at least a part of my creating this account, although I am constantly getting in trouble for vandalism from the 60s, 70s, and occasionally 80s in IP addresses, so I doubt I'll edit much anymore.

Just thought I would let you know.

My RfA[edit]

Thanks
Thanks
Master of Puppets/Talk/Archive/Archive13, thank you for participating in my RfA. Unfortunately, a great number of oppose voters felt that I lacked experience, and a consensus was not reached (the final tally was 30/28/10). Perhaps I will try again in another few months when I have a few more edits under my belt. If I do, I hope I can count on your support. Thanks again! Cool3 talk 20:08, 2 June 2006 (UTC) (UTC)[reply]

Userpage revert[edit]

Hey Mopper! Between his two edits, BANG! (talk · contribs) simply added and removed a space, so there wasn't anything to revert. [4] Thanks for keeping watch though. :) Cheers, Sango123 22:12, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

VandalProof[edit]

Hi Master of Puppets! I'm 99.99% sure about this, but I just want to confirm: The articles in grey are the articles visited in a specific session, right? (I.e. Articles visited from before VandalProof was closed will not show up grey the next time the program is restarted.) Thanks in advance. :) G.He 22:51, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it's just if you've viewed that diff before or not. They won't show up in following sessions as grey, just in the current one. AmiDaniel (talk) 22:52, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Help[edit]

At Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment/Aquirata the Andrew Homer person you just reverted is reinserting a slanderous comment on me - please see the history. I am right in moving this comment to the talk page (per policy), right? Lundse 23:07, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, on an RfC you may post what you think on the main page. I know his comment is fairly attackish, but it is allowed on the RfC page itself. Master of Puppets FREE BIRD! 23:10, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Moved by Lundse

But:

All signed comments and talk not related to an endorsement should be directed to this page's discussion page. Discussion should not be added below. Discussion should be posted on the talk page. Threaded replies to another user's vote, endorsement, evidence, response, or comment should be posted to the talk page.

I would say his comment is not directly related and is certainly a reply to my endorsement. Lundse 23:16, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My Thanks[edit]

I wanted to drop a brief note on your talk page (one admittedly not written to you only, but nevertheless truly meant) to thank you for your vote in my Request for Adminship, which concluded this evening. Even though it was unsuccessful, it did make clear to me some areas in which I can improve my contributions to Wikipedia, both in terms of the areas in which I can participate and the manner in which I can participate. I do plan on, at some point in the future (although, I think, not the near future), attempting the process again, and I hope you will consider participating in that voting process as well. If you wish in the future to offer any constructive criticism to me, or if I may assist you with anything, I hope you will not hesitate to contact me. Thanks again. — WCityMike (T | C)  ⇓ plz reply HERE  (why?) ⇓  04:24, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Accidently voted twice in RfA[edit]

Hi Master of Puppets, I think that you have accidently voted twice at Ganeshk's RfA. You voted at number 23 and number 63. Perhaps you can cross out one of your votes. Have a nice day :-) DarthVader 03:05, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reverts at Wikipedia[edit]

Hello, a recent chaos at WP:AN/I centering around reverts to the Wikipedia article seem to have something to do with a bizarre encoding error/glitch character ("�") in the article. This symbol appears to have been inserted by 128.205.249.26. You edited the article immediately afterward with the summary "(JS: Revert to revision 55830531 by Tawkerbot2)", which removed the sentence that the IP address user had added, but left the glitch character in place, see this subset of the history. I don't know what kind of tool you're using, but I'm confused as to why it did not fully revert. Perhaps you could have a look at this? — Jun. 5, '06 [05:18] <freak|talk>

This is strange indeed. I thought the general protocol for such a tool would be (a) find the most recent revision by somebody other than the user whom you are reverting, (b) copy all the text from that revision (which, theoretically, should not have contained the glitch pokémon symbol), (c) paste it into a hidden edit form, (d) submit it. The only exception I could envision is if the tool provided for some sort of "section rollback", and that concept, to me, seems strange, and of questionable usefulness. I'll look at the tool if I get time, but my javascript skills are teh sux0r, so I might not learn anything from it.
The only reason I noticed this, by the way, is due to a recent forest fire on WP:AN/I, which you might take a look at, if you have time. — Jun. 5, '06 [06:07] <freak|talk>
The rollback package he has has [restore this revision] on all diff pages (and has a conformation), it also has [revert as vandalism] and [rollback page], which both act as rollbacks as you decribed.Voice-of-AllTalk 15:17, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I came here because I saw that you designed user pages, and I was wondering if you could work on mine. I know you have plenty to do, but if you ever have time, drop by my talk page so that we can work it out. I really appreciate any help, Thetruthbelow (talk) 06:42, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: 206.170.104.24[edit]

This user's threat for legal action was mentioned as part of the reason for his block, which he'll see when this pops up. He engaged in vandalism as well, so I figured a generic template would work in this case. :) Cheers, Sango123 17:36, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Show/Hide Sections[edit]

Hi MoP! I noticed that you also use the show/hide frame on your user page. Can you tell me why the frame begins at "hide" on Don Mills Collegiate Institute (Under the Courses section) instead of "show" like your page?

My User Page[edit]

Hello again. Previously, I asked if you could help me on my user page, to which you responded very nicely. Actually, i just came to tell you that I redesigned it by myself, so you can probably take me off your list. Maybe you could check out my page here and tell me on my talk page what you think of it compared to my past ones, and even possibly give me some suggestions. Thank you very much, Thetruthbelowtalk 02:38, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I would love it[edit]

I have seen the awesome pictures you have designed, so feel free to design one for me. I actually kind of got the concept of the page from your own one, except I used what little computer knowledge I had to make it a little more compact. But back to the topic of a picture, I would gladly accept one. Thanks, Thetruthbelowtalk 02:46, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm actually not really sure. It's hard to really put "truth" into picture form. Actually, why don't you pick and design it, as I am not really that creative. Also, just wanted to tell you that under your basic info stuff on your userpage, you say you only have 3,400 edits when you really have over 6,000 wow, that's alot of edits. Make the picture how you like, and as long as it isn't pink with tellatubbys or power rangers on it, I think it will be great. :D. Thanks for everything, Thetruthbelowtalk 02:57, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Abstract=good. Take as long as you want, and if you need me, feel free to ask. I was wondering when you would like to take another shot at the rfa process, because I really think you are deserving of it, and I would be proud to nominate you.

Dragut and Dragut Reis[edit]

Okay, so the article used to live at Dragut, right? But, User:Barfly used cut'n'paste to move it to Dragut Reis. This is not necessarily a bad thing; it probably should live there.

Fair use images on userpages[edit]

Hi Master of Puppets, thank you for informing me that fair use images can't be used on userpage spaces.[5] I appreciate it and would have removed it from my page once I knew this rule.

Help with my User Page?[edit]

Hey, Thanks for your warm welcome last week. I was hoping maybe you could help me with my User Page. I spent hours getting it the way I want it but it appears someone may have messed with whatever template I was using for the User Boxes and they don't appear to the right anymore like they should. Could you possibly help me design the page so that this does not happen in the future? Thanks. Spazzz 17:52, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Internal links to mid-article anchors[edit]

The FAQ is a little overwhelming, but I did look through it *briefly*.

How do I internal link to a anchor (the proper HTML term, right?) of a Wikipedia article. I found a work around, using an "external" link but it looks sloppy, and I know there is a way to do it (or so one would hope) but I cannot find any examples to copy off of.

Request for assistance[edit]

Hi, Master of Puppets,

Thank you for the instructions, but I am not a new-comer in WP. I am one of the supporters of the certainty principle. I just opened a new account, so that those, who fight against the certainty principle, could not immediately remove my posts and block me.

Currently we have great problems around the article certainty principle.

The certainty principle is a physical principle in quantum mechanics that generalizes both the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and Mandelshtam-Tamm relation (for energy and time) on some unified base (group theory and Fubini-Study metric). It was discovered more than a year ago by Russian theoretical physicist D. Arbatsky. It is supported by specialists (not only by "sockpuppets" in WP) and now we want to have an article for it. But some people, who are not specialists in the subject, still insist that the principle "does not pass Google test" and that their "crank detecor is beeping".

Situation became really bad. I do not want to talk much about personal attacks, threats etc., that were made by both sides. There are things that are much worse. The war became really destructive for Wikipedia, for articles that do not belong to the topic, and for users who do not participate in the war.

Some admins (opponents of the CP) believe that when they fight with "bad" users, they do not have to follow Wikipedia policy. If some user is new and is "likely" a sockpuppet of other "bad" user, then this "sockpuppet" must be blocked "on sight", even if this user does not break any WP-policy. Many such people were indefinitely blocked in the CP-war, even those who, possibly, did not know about the war. They cannot come back to WP, because when account is blocked, the IP-address is blocked also. Possibly, admins here do not understand this.

Hryun, who wrote the good version of the article, behaved quite agressively (and this is bad, of course). But he claimed from the very beginning that he is proficient in computers and will overcome protection. But most people cannot do that. Why do they have to suffer just because they support the same ideas as Hryun?

Being suppressed by administrative power, some CP-fighters began to vandalize even those articles, that do not belong to the topic. (Possibly, they all were sockpuppets of Hryun.)

What can I suggest in this situation? I think, it is necessary to undelete the controversial article and allow people to fight there and in related articles (formally, it is legal to do that, see [6]; see also consensus). It is also necessary to persuade other admins not to block those people, who do not break any WP-policy. Even if those people "push" some "unusual" POV, but do not break WP-policy, they may not be blocked. It is also necessary to unblock all such people that were blocked already.

If you help to do all these things (or at least undelete the article), you would make a great thing for Wikipedia and for me. Thank you. (Reply here.) Lokas 16:53, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, first I'll go and read up on the article; while I don't doubt for a second that CP is important, there are literally thousands of similar cases on Wikipedia. Original or new research, particularily in science, can take a bit to catch on in the mainstream, so the others you've spoken to likely are just being wary and waiting for an outside, major source to confirm this. And it isn't only CP; heck, humanity thought the earth was flat for a good few millenia. Of course, I probably sound like I have no clue whatsoever and am writing filler text; trust me, I'm not. I'll look it over a bit and see if there's anything amiss. Cheers, Master of Puppets Giant Enemy Crab! 02:58, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, I do not think that you are just writing filler text. I completely agree with you. And this is good that you compare this case with that "humanity thought the earth was flat". Two years ago humanity thought that the combination of words "certainty principle" was complete nonsense in the context of the uncertainty principle... But today it is not! Unfortunately, it happened so that uncertainty principle is well-known in popular culture. For this reason, even those people, who are not specialists in quantum mechanics, pay too much unnecessary attention to the CP. And for this reason, they also reasonably suspect that "pseudoscience cranks" could likely suggest the CP. But when you talk about "waiting for an outside, major source to confirm this", I have serious doubts about it. It is unclear, what a "major source" is. (Resolution of the United Nations? ;-)) Now we have real scientists who confirm the correctness and importance of the CP. There are no scientists, who have objections against the CP. And I do not understand why some people spend their time to fight with something that they are not specialists in? And what is more, they believe for some reason that their mission is so important, that they may break WP policy all the time. Possibly, you are not a specialist in quantum mechanics, so I do not ask you to study the CP. I ask you to help to organize constructive process within the rules of WP, and without administrative terrorism. Thank you. Lokas 18:09, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:MusicInWrestling.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:MusicInWrestling.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Jtalledo (talk) 03:19, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Star Wars newsletter[edit]

Project updates
Greetings, Star Wars editors! Deckiller here. It's the first edition of the WikiProject Star Wars newsletter, and yes, it's a semi-ripoff of the Esperenza newsletter. I think it's important to begin with some good news: Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, and Jabba the Hutt have reached featured article status! Kudos to the editors who helped obtain these achievements!

WikiProject Star Wars is also on a mission to improve Star Wars articles using the following ideas:

  • An out of universe perspective versus an in universe perspective (see Wikipedia:Writing about fiction and the future ammendments to our manual of style)
  • Evolving lists into regular articles
  • Moving excess information and specifics to Wookieepedia (and providing links to Wookieepedia per the "see also" and/or "external links" sections)
  • Enhanced communication amongst WikiProject members
  • More to come

These should provide the basic steps needed to improve and "encyclopedia-fy" the Star Wars series of articles.

Things to do
There are plenty of Wikipedia:WikiProject Star Wars/things to do. An update to the page is coming very soon, and it will represent the new and exciting changes that Star Wars pages will be receiving!
Out-of-universe versus in-universe perspectives
Although details are forthcoming, I would like to take this time to explain the gist of this concept. Wikipedia has generally agreed that fictional articles should write about the topic from a "real world" perspective, focusing on real world issues and topics, with a section or two for plot synopsis and so on. Jabba the Hutt is a solid character example, and Clone Wars (Star Wars) is quickly moving toward an out of universe perspective.
Article evolution

As many of you know, lists of minor Star Wars-related themes are very common on Wikipedia; however, since these may be seen as violations of Wikipedia policy (and having seperate articles would breach even more policies), the tentative solution is to create general articles on a list's topic (for example, turning List of Star Wars devices into Technology of Star Wars, which allows us to cover everything from hyperspace to comlinks in a general encyclopedic fashion). This can be very tough for some broad topics, so the key is organization. I encourage all editors to list their ideas on the WikiProject talk page. It will be a very difficult — but tangible — effort.

For an example, let me point you to the Final Fantasy WikiProject. Some of us over at that WikiProject decided to turn various components of Final Fantasy X, such as Pyreflies, Yevon, and the backstory — into an article describing the world of Spira. Location descriptions were given a List of locations in Spira article, and the details themselves were placed on the Spira (Final Fantasy X) page. This is a decent template to follow — however, we will need to place priority on out-of-universe, "real life" topics and perspectives in realtion to the article.

Sounds confusing, eh? It won't, for examples will be popping up left and right in the near future!

Signed...

Just thought I'd let you know that I've nomed you for the Esperanza User Page Award!!

As you can see, you've got some good competition, but I think that your user page is really well made, and stands a really good chance of winning!!

Good luck, and I'll speak to you soon. Thε Halo Θ 10:17, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry about that, i looked into it ;) People who haven't been part of Esperanza have won it in the past, so no need to worry.
As I said, you look like you're in with a chance, so I'll have my fingers crossed. Thε Halo Θ 00:10, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Kinda weird how I'm in said competition with you, when I only blatantly stole the div's from your page. c.c;; There's three of us with the same sort of page design in it, too. Childzy's entry is similar looking also but I don't know enough about userpage design to determine if it's using your div method or not. Personally, I'd be flattered. :D Good luck! ~Kylu (u|t) 06:33, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My image[edit]

As a token of my gratitude, I present you with the most delicious-looking cake I can find!

Oh my God, it's so beautiful! I can't think what I have done to deserve such a divine gift, but I am eternally grateful. Thank you so much! Sergeant Snopake 10:29, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're you. That deserves it. =) — Nathan (talk) / 08:14, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Nathan! ;) But seriously, MoP, thank you so much, it's fantastic! Sergeant Snopake 10:24, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ayep, I'm in this one too. Oh, also got stuck with a mop... does that mean we're both moppers now? o.O; ~Kylu (u|t) 07:25, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Monitoring Americans for Homeland Security?[edit]

who the hell are you to come to my talk page and leave drivel? cashing in on the homeland security money by monitering the cyclo? pretentious bitch. oh, does that qualify as an opinion, not a fact? the compilation of history is in fact, an opinion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zen Destiny (talk • contribs) .

Oi, gotta love people who jump to incivility. — Nathan (talk) / 03:37, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Note (for lack of better title)[edit]

In case you haven't noticed, you've got a duo of WikiProject Star Wars userboxes, and another of your userboxes says you're still 14. That aside, nice userpage. Picaroon9288|ta co 04:41, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Admin coaching[edit]

Hi, your turn has arrived for admin coaching! As it's been a while since you've signed up I just wanted to check that you are still wanting it. If so simply add your name to the "Unassigned" section of the coaching box. Cheers, Petros471 21:45, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, right section :) (I've been holding off archive just to I can keep that bit up the top for coaching messages!). I'll assign you some coaches as soon as I've gone through a few more potential trainees. Petros471 21:57, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
User:Ilyanep (assuming Ilyanep is still available for coaching, otherwise we can find you another coach) and User:Fang Aili are your new coaches :) I suggest setting up a user subpage to co-ordinate coaching efforts, and that you introduce yourself to your coaches. Let me or EWS23 know if you have any questions. Petros471 22:11, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Master of Puppets! I noticed your edit here on Fang Aili's talk page. It seems you're her new coachee! As her old one, I can tell you she's really good, and her advise and support were really helpful to me thoughout my entire coaching process. Good luck on your coaching. Happy editing! :) --Firsfron of Ronchester 23:32, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there, MoP. Hope I can coach you well, but don't be surprised if I'm a tad inactive. I will be researching things on Wikipedia, though so if you leave me a message, I'll get it. — Ilyanep (Talk) 14:36, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Weeee![edit]

Sorry, but I'm going to have to steal your userpage, For about a week I've been looking for a userpage that I can use to base by own page on, I need to revamp it, It won't be exactly the same as yours, I'm just basing my userpage on it, I'll change the colours and other stuff. "Stealing is the lowest form, but someone has to do it!" Said by me! --Lego@lost 01:34, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstar[edit]

For being bold when making barnstars (like the Welcomer's Barnstar), I award you this Barnstar Barnstar. Killfest2—Daniel.Bryant 08:02, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Userpage Theft *gasp*[edit]

Yeah, that would be great! I'd like to keep the layout (e.g. how stuff is ordered) but change the graphics and colour. I'm new to this stuff, I only got an account on the 13th of July, I know all the basic stuff (photos, tags, citing) but I don't really no how to do graphics and stuff like boxes that well. If you could design a new userpage for me that would be awesome, cheers mate! -- Lego@lost 03:22, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh Yeah,[edit]

Oh yeah, If you redesign my userpage, would it be possible to keep my ever-growing list of userboxes on the right hand side? -- Lego@lost 03:41, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Userpage Theft *gasp* (again!)[edit]

No worries, Take as long as you want to do it, I'm in no hurry! -- Lego@lost 05:21, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Archive it![edit]

  • prods you* You haven't archived your talk page in ages! I demand you do so now! (both of your archival criteria have been surpassed) Kalani [talk] 20:57, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, holy canoli, as your admin coach my first recommendation is that you archive this page. :) --Fang Aili talk 19:57, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You've got a Thank you card![edit]

UNSC page[edit]

Sorry for constantly taking down your background on the UNSC. I didn't see a source the first time and assumed it wasn't canon, but I did read your recent reference to the official history on Xbox.com which confirms you were correct.
