Hi!
Hi Bananagirl, congratulations on getting 150 posts! EKN 01:18, 5 April 2006 (UTC)EKN

Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello, welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips:
 * Read the Tutorial, How to edit a page and the Manual of Style.
 * Create a User page.
 * Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;).
 * Read the Policies and guidelines.
 * Add yourself to the New user log.
 * Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
 * Be bold!
 * Use the Show preview button
 * Provide an Edit summary.

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the  link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alphax &tau;&epsilon;&chi; 03:47, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

Cleanup Taskforce/Are you active?
Hi Bananagirl. You wrote, "User:Bananagirl I am active, why did i get this?". Everybody listed in the taskforce got this. Thanks. Stewart Adcock 14:08, 3 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The article Witch-hunt has been added to your task force desk because you have expressed an interest in History. RJFJR 03:52, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

1.0 Collaboration of the Week
Hi, I noticed you signed up as a member of the Version 1.0 Editorial Team, which is looking to identify quality articles in Wikipedia for future publication on CD or paper. Recently, a 1.0 Collaboration of the Week was created to work on essential topics that are in need of improvement, which will ultimately go in a release version of Wikipedia. You can help by voting, contributing to an article, or simply making a comment. Thank you for your support. :) Gflores Talk 08:05, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Cleanup taskforce
You blanked the taskforce subpage for Witch-hunt and moved the comments to unassigned. Were you trying to move the entry to unassigned? Are you indicating you want to pass the task to another member of the taskforce? RJFJR 05:31, 12 February 2006 (UTC) Yeah - sorry! I didn't realise what I was doing! I made a few changes and added a few things but I wasnt sure if there was anything else needed. --Banana.girl 06:14, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Just wanted to say good work on the article. It looks a lot better than the last time I saw it. Keep up the good work. Dankru 23:50, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Cleanup Taskforce
The article New Formalism has been added to your desk. Please look at it or pass it along (or let me know and I'll reassign it). This is an article on a poetry movement and has been placed on yoru desk because of your interest in literature. RJFJR 17:14, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

New Formalism
Hi ... I've left a quick reply to your Hello message at Talk:New Formalism. &mdash; Stumps 08:51, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Me again ... I've written some comments regarding the 'things to do' at Talk:New Formalism. &mdash; Stumps 13:47, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I see you're in Australia? (wish I was) If you email me (you can do it when you're looking at a user page, on the left is an 'email this user' option) I can reply and send you possible contact details for people who might be able to help with info on NF. I remember there was an old issue of John Millet's Poetry Australia that was devoted to NF/NN ... maybe it had a bright yellow cover, but I'm not sure. &mdash; Stumps 07:52, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

Hii.......
Hiii..

I came across your name on the Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members-users who want to join but don't meet the membership requirements yet page..... i loves the way that you arranged your user boxes... and since you have an interest in music i thought maybe you'll like the song by my band Cosa Nostra... heres the link....

Download it
 * If you wanna Download the song:


 * Or If you wanna Stream it:

Stream it

Listen to it if you can and tell me what you think.....

Thanks a lot...... Jayant,17 Years, India 19:40, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

LOL, you welcomed my bot account to Wikipedia:) - It can't really reply itself so I'll say thanks for it :) -- Tawker 08:40, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Good luck
Thanks for the note on Talk:New Formalism. Good luck with the boarding thing ... I had friends who really hated it but that was way back in the dark ages. I hope you'll still have some time to contribute! &mdash; Stumps 13:31, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
 * First boarding, then not-boarding ... sounds 'disorienting' ... at least Wikipedia is a constant :) &mdash; Stumps 08:46, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Isn't there a Seinfeld episode where they buy some friend an engagement present, a big TV or something, and then the engagement is broken off, and George wants to get the TV back, but the girl gets and gives it away to charity, but then Kramer and George pretned to collect it, .... something like that ..the things that lodge in one's head! Stumps 11:52, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Things which may be of interest
G'day Bananagirl (hope Cyclone Larry missed you!),

I've noticed that you're an Australian Wikipedian. A few places you might find interesting are:
 * The Australian Wikipedians' notice board
 * Category:Wikipedians in Queensland

Also, I've noticed that you've put quite a bit of personal info on your userpage:
 * Your date of birth
 * Your full name
 * Several email addresses

Now, obviously this is entirely up to you, but: being a teenager and posting personal info online is probably not a good idea. You're quite welcome to leave it there if you feel like it, but you could at least obsfucate (mangle) your email address(es) so the spambots don't get it...

Cheers, Alphax &tau;&epsilon;&chi; 08:52, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
 * No worries. If you're looking for some image editing software, check out Category:Free graphics software (and more generally, Category:Bitmap graphics editors). AFAICT PSD is Photoshop - traditionally, tranparency for web images was first done with GIFs, but PNGs have become more common since they're lossless, and you can get variable transparency (unles you're using Internet Explorer, which is the worst bit of software ever written)...

1.0 "Release Version Qualifying"
Hi, I'm interested in your feedback on Wikipedia talk:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Release Version Qualifying. It's essentially an idea to use a process similar to WP:FAC to identify and handle articles and lists that would go in a release version. Maurreen 19:23, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

WP 1.0
I thought since you are interested in this project you might be interested to see a CD version of en now exists see Wikipedia-CD/Download & 2006 WP CD Selection. This is being discussed on the 1.0 project pages but progress breeds enthusiasm so I thought I would let you know. --BozMo talk 09:02, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Signpost
See the Signpost Newsroom, from there you should be able to figure out how you can help out. Cheers,  jaco plane  17:29, 14 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your interest, and sorry for the delay on my part in responding, I was focused on getting the Signpost itself done. We're always open to any kind of help you can provide, but writing actual articles is particularly helpful. If you know of something newsworthy going on, or pick something up from the suggestions page, drafting a story about it would be wonderful. If you're looking for an idea to work on, it appears there was another brief server outage Wednesday we'll want to cover (apparently the site going down even warrants outside media coverage now). For information you might start at wikitech-l. --Michael Snow 01:52, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Old Skool Esperanzial note
Since this isn't the result of an AC meeting, I have decided to go Old Skool. This note is to remind you that the elections are taking place now and will end at 23:50 UTC on 2006-04-29. Please vote here. Thanks. --Cel es tianpower háblame 20:42, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Page renovation
I'd be happy to renovate your user page! I was just wondering if you had any specifics on color, organization, etc.; here are some examples to help (1, 2, 3, 4). I was thinking a slight yellow theme (because of your name). You choose which info to keep.

 * I made some tests on your userpage, which you probably noticed; there are still a few bugs that need pesticide, but they'll go in no time. I was wondering if you were ok with the colors or if they were too bright (be honest; my feelings won't get hurt, and I don't want your user page looking bad ;)). <font style="background: black" face="none" color="#FFFFFF"><font color="FFA200"> <font color="#D70000"> _-M   <font color="#ffffff">  o     P-_     02:17, 24 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the kind words! :D However, don't think I'll be offended if you have a problem with the page; its your user page, not mine, so if you don't like something, tell me. Namely, is it too bright? <font color="FFA200"> <font color="#D70000"> _-M   <font color="#898989"> o     P-_    21:37, 29 April 2006 (UTC)


 * And I went ahead and gave you a signature box of your own. :P Unfortunately, showing/hiding everything causes lots of glitches which would take years to sort out... I'll do it one day, but I can't today unfortunately <tt>:(</tt> <font color="D70000">_-M  o   P-_  01:20, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Happy Birthday
Hello friend. I wish you a very happy wiki-birthday, a day late though. BTW, I learnt of the same from Esperanza. All the best for the coming year! --Bhadani 16:27, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Hiiiiiii!
Hi! I came across your page while browsin' categories. :) You seem awesome. You have a taste in music, like me. :) Do you like *dun dun dun* Gwen Stefani? I have to listen to her at least once a day, or I'll FREAK. (You could say I'm obsessed!) Well, erm, dropped by to say hi! Oh, and happy belated birthday!

A short Esperanzial update
As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, &mdash;Cel es tianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Hey
I know usertalk pages aren't usually meant to be peppered with 'you seem cool' messages, but what the heck. Hey, bananagirl, you really do seem cool. Nicely designed userpage too! If I ever get around to organising my mess of descriptions and userboxes then mine will rival yours :) Baberlp 22:46, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi!
Hi, I somehow stumbled across your page & saw that it was a beautiful page at that. So I just thought I'd randomly say what an awesome page you have & that you should keep up the good work... :) Spawn Man 01:36, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Change to Common.css
Per recent discussions, the way in which Persondata is viewed by Wikipedia editors has changed. In order to continue viewing Persondata in Wikipedia articles, please edit your user CSS file to display table.persondata rather than table.metadata. More specific instructions can be found on the Persondata page. -- ShakingSpirit <sup style="color:#000000;">talk  on behalf of Kaldari 00:42, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello Bananagirl! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created  is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog.

Survey
Hi Bananagirl!

I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!

It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!

Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!

Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!
