User talk:EWS23/Archive 8

Thank you
for your message a while ago re the Yoshiaki Omura page; I was very happy someone could appreciate I was/am trying to work on the article for its improvement viz WP criteria. You are in the minority, however, regretably in your opinon. Best regards.--Richardmalter 10:23, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!
Hi Eric -- I only just now saw your kind comments about my user page on User talk:Phaedriel. I'm so glad you enjoyed the essay; I keep tinkering with it, and maybe eventually I will be fully satisfied with it. :)  Thank you for taking the time to read, comment, and recommend it to others.  And I'm glad you enjoyed the poem as well; feel free to borrow or pass it on if you like.  (It felt a little strange to advertise the poster on my user page, but since I was asked to create it on CafePress for Wikimania anyway, I figured I might as well make it available here too...)

Anyway, looking through your contributions here I can see you're an excellent editor and a very nice guy. I'm very glad to make your acquaintance! &mdash; Catherine\talk 20:25, 31 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks; believe me, I feel like just a little cog in this big place too most of the time!  I'm also unable to go to Wikimania this year, just sending my little poem along to represent me.  Cheers!  &mdash; Catherine\talk 00:13, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!
Many thanks for finally blocking 69.234.151.44. I was barely even able to help revert pages due to the rapidity of edits and getting caught in edit conflicts, but I am now greatly relieved this user is no longer vandalizing the encyclopedia. Phew. Again, thanks! Dar-Ape 20:03, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

About your comment
However, it should also be noted that Manu's native language is Spanish, so people around him may have been spelling it Ginóbili most of his life. EWS23 | (Leave me a message!) 21:04, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Actually, no, that's not true, because half of the Argentines surnames are Italian and we know how to spell them, maybe that happen with the German surnames that are many in Argentina too but not as many as the Italian, Though the German most of the times are spelled correctly too.

You've got a Thank you card!
  Open your card! Dear Eric, thank you so much for your beautiful words, your kidness and your trust in me. My Request for Adminship is finally over, and the support and appreciation that the community has gifted me will stick in my mind as long as I live. I have no way to properly express how grateful I am to you for all you've done for me, and all I can tell you is, I'll try not to disappoint you nor anyone else with my use of the buttons... and if I mess up, make sure to come here and give me a good yell! :) Seriously, tho, if you ever need my help, either for admin-related stuff or in any other way, you'll always be welcome to message me, and I promise I'll try my very best. My sweet, dear, amazing Eric - do I really have to say with words all that you mean to me? I think I don't, because I know that I can hardly hope for a better friend than you. The way you listen to me when I need a shoulder to rely on, and everything we've shared, mean so incredibly more to me than this RfA, that this is but another opportunity to celebrate our friendship. You are incredibly special, E. Oh! and I hope you've checked your mailbox in the last days, mr :) With a big hug, your friend forever,  P h a e d r i e l ♥  tell me  

Came back!

Two questions
Two questions. First, how do you access the raw html text of the templates, such as the University of Washington template. And secondly, how do you create new templates? Any help would be great. Thanks!--Gephart 13:42, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Re:Template:University of Washington
Yes, I originally made that University of Washington navigation box. Thanks for making it into a template. KSEA 02:14, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

The Shocker Addition
I based my addition of information provided in Dave Coulier's wikipedia page, where it explicitly states that he was the one publicly credited for its creation. However, considering that seems out of place with Coulier's character, and that he wasn't mentioned anywhere in the Shocker article, I'm beginning to think that that was placed in Coulier's article as some kind of joke or something. Sorry. You can delete my addition to the Shocker article, as it's most likely untrue. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.252.225.35 (talk • contribs).

The Toro Company Wiki
Hello, My name is David Lowe and I work here at the Toro Company. I've noticed yourself as a contributor to the wiki page and wanted to let you know that I'm interested in adding to it. I think an employee of the company should at least have a hand in it and I have some great information to add. Some historical, some triva etc. All public knowledge. I have some compiled here and will be starting to add a little at a time. Thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dlowe56 (talk • contribs).

hi eric !
hi sir ! sorry to get back to you so late ! i moved the featured article to see if it would totally mess up wikipediaès Main_Page, but it didn't. i've no idea why it didn't, but i guess that's a pretty good "security measure". anyway ! cheers ! Vivelequebeclibre 04:19, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you! You have been very helpful.

Thank you!

Barnstar for you

 * Thanks for the barnstar! I really appreciate it, but I recommend that you check out the archives of the barnstar brigade, as there are many people who have given out far more barnstars than me and greatly deserve this award. Thanks! EWS23  (Leave me a message!) 03:13, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

I almost rolled him back but wasn't sure. So I figured a nice quite report would solve it. Æon Insane Ward 06:28, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

What should be next?
What should be done next to the new EA page? Æon Insane Ward 22:04, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Esperanza/User Page Award
EWS23, thanks for signing up for the Esperanza User Page Contest. The judges have received the fifteen entries, and are ready to start judging. The judges will take a week to complete the judging process, and they will contact all the participants when the judging is done.

Please drop by the contest page for contest updates and questions. Take care, and good luck! May the Force be with you! Shr e shth91 ($ |-| ŗ 3 $ |-| ţ |-|) 15:17, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

BLAM
BLAM USB is scheduled to be available via werkshop.com at the same time as the album release (this may be September 12th or shortly before so that it arrives closer to that date). It is also believed (and presumed) that it will be available at the (yet unknown) tour dates on the Fall US tour that is expected to run parts of september, october, november and perhaps december. It will also presumably be available on the 2007 Canadian and UK tours, but that is a notable timeframe in the future from the release. TheHYPO 09:42, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

The Page
I changed it a little because on lower resolutions the page is messed up. I fixed it so it would at least be all in the right place him opened in any res. Æon  Insanity Now! EA!  03:20, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

I know I have a lower res at work and high res at home I'm trying to find a middle ground (May have to make them all one size in order to make it work) Æon  Insanity Now! EA!  03:25, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

I think it is the calendar and way to make it smaller? Æon <sup style="color:red;">Insanity Now! <sub style="color:green;">EA!  03:29, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Nevermind I figured it out I was right the calendar was throwing everything off I have put it back to 33 and it now works on lower res. Æon  <sup style="color:red;">Insanity Now! <sub style="color:green;">EA!  03:31, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

I think were there. I can't think of anymore visual things to do. Can you think of anymore content related things? Æon <sup style="color:red;">Insanity Now! <sub style="color:green;">EA!  03:38, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi Eric

Somewhat ( but not totally) disheartened to find my first contribution to Wikipedia removed after just 20 minutes..

I will try again. I want to make the point on the Global Warming article that the most important greenhouse gas by far is Water Vapour. It is a rather political point, really, with lots of people trying to muddy the waters in the light of Al Gore's film, but it was worth seeing how quickly Wiki articles are subjected to ruthless editting.

I've now acquired a username and password, and will be trying again after reading the bits you recommended.

Thanks

John

Howdy!
