Subpage
Not sure if you're still seeking an answer to your question, a subpage is a nested page, for example User:Electrical Experiment/sandbox would be a subpage. Many people use subpages to keep their main userpage to a manageable size. xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 17:16, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Great! Feel free to drop by with any questions. I'll create an adoption subpage for you tomorrow, so we can centralize discussions. xenocidic (talk) 01:22, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

This is your transcluded adoption subpage (Feel free to move it wherever you like, by using the   code. Use the "edit this subpage" button to add to it, and for quicker response, use the "advise xenocidic of updates..." to let me know when you update it. I'll also update you on your talk page when I update the subpage. Looking forward to working with you, xenocidic (talk) 05:42, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Horses in Warfare
Hello,

That photo was taken of one of the Knight's of Avalon's horses. I'm sorry that I don't have any more information about them.

Speedy deletion of Image:SIms 2 Ribbon.png
A tag has been placed on Image:SIms 2 Ribbon.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on  explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

 * Don't worry - i've just re-uploaded it with a filename that meets WP requirements ---> Image:Sims 2 ribbon.png.

I'm tagging various WP:Sims stuff as i'm clearing it up. Please don't take it the wrong way! I'm also going to suspend the newsletter as i sort out a new design - ok?

Thanks,

RE: question
I can access deleted material with the exact article name, yes. What are you looking for? - <font face="Verdana">CobaltBlueTony™ talk 19:55, 30 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I've sandboxed it for you here, but it was speedy-tagged by with the following concern:"blank for new layout - this is (not aimed at you experiment!) ugly, hard to read by those with screen readers, and cheat codes is against WP policy, i'm sure!"- <font face="Verdana">CobaltBlueTony™ talk 20:01, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

WP:Sims
Please don't fight this one. If you want to help, please do, but with the project things please wait! I'll be done in about a day, and then we can get a new newsletter out. What did it have on it? A list of users, and a cheatcode. If someone wants a list they can go to the project page, and cheatcodes are against WP Policy. Thanks, <font face="Gill Sans MT"> B G  7even   13:09, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Serious breach of WP:OWN there - "I want the final say". And i'm saying no! It looks bad if we have 2 designs, changing halfway through. And as yet, there isn't enough content in it! Let me get the new page up, and we'll start on the July one. Which could be done if I wasn't having to revert changes! <font face="Gill Sans MT"> B G  7even   13:19, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I have actually just reverted it all, and CSD'd it, so no it hasn't gone out. It has a list of names and a cheat code for heaven sake!!! Please! Lets just wait until next month! <font face="Gill Sans MT"> B G  7even   13:25, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Why? Issue 1 has been deleted. Issue 3 has been deleted. THe sign up was deleted as i said in my speedy delete reasons that it was suspended! Half the members on there are not there any more!!! Please. I politely ask you: until we have re-launched, not to touch the newsletter! <font face="Gill Sans MT"> B G  7even   13:30, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * No because it's under the wrong name. Look at User:Bluegoblin7/Sandbox7 for the new page and format!!! <font face="Gill Sans MT"> B G  7even   13:38, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Er not possible when your using Twinkle! Also, i'd removed all transclusions that matte (user talk pages) <font face="Gill Sans MT"> B G  7even   13:41, 31 May 2008 (UTC)#
 * I'm not on about the newsroom. That's for real-life related Sims things, such as announcements etc. <font face="Gill Sans MT"> B G  7even   13:46, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Re:WP:Sims
Because I've had enough of that Bluegoblin guy, he's way too full of himself. I don't understand what gave him the right to take over the project in the first place. Moving me back to number two to put him to number one was an absolute insult and I had enough of him. I've tried to be nice to him but he really is too full of himself. The projects going downhill anyway thanks to him, no point being in it. Jammy (talk) 19:14, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * But seriously, what is the point, he's just going to ruin it until there's nothing left. I'll still contribute to all Sims articles, but there's just no point being in a Wikiproject that's going nowhere whilst it's ran by some jerk. Jammy (talk) 19:20, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Well I'm gonna rejoin, but I'm gonna make it hell for him. He's ruined all your contributions to the project (which I really think were good by the way) so I'm gonna ruin his. Jammy (talk) 19:24, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
