Disappearing act
Whoa, your talk page disappeared! I see it was an archival now, and not some random disappearance, so that makes sense... Looks like I'll have the first comment on this new section to. I may have to keep up that trend. :) -- Nataly a  18:39, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Things are going. Going going.  Not much exciting, actually, just editing in lieu of doing real-world work (do you run into that a lot?  I know I do). -- Nataly a  18:42, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I really like the yellow - are you thinking of changing it? -- Nataly a 18:50, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry you are not feeling so good about things. :/ But cheer up, things will improve! Here is some Esperanza coffee for you to relax and enjoy with.  And good luck with your RfA! -- Nataly a  23:58, 7 May 2006 (UTC)


 * You need some serious cheering up! What is causing the current sadness? -- Nataly a  15:13, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Have you considered taking a Wikibreak for a little bit? At least let you concentrate on stuff at school, and not being bombarded by things from all sides. -- Nataly a  15:35, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * What about stepping back from editing anything that is causing conflicts, and just working on something relaxing (if you can find that). -- Nataly a 15:40, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * How about acting as a WikiGnome for a bit? Anything there should be rather uncontroversial. -- Nataly a  15:46, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Aww, thanks! That's really nice of you. :)  I'm just glad I could help. -- Nataly a  23:52, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Your RfA
Hi, I've added some questions to your RfA. When you have a minute, I'd appreciate if you would take a look at them. Thanks. JoshuaZ 22:06, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Btw, you didn't answer my first question. It is of course optional, I just didn't know if you maybe forgot about it or missed it since you were answering them in reverse order. JoshuaZ 03:19, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

RFA support
I voted as Support for you RFA for your information. :) --Actown e 00:16, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I voted support too. -- George Mon  e  y Talk   Contribs 00:37, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Edit Summaries
You know what can help you with using edit summaries? Put this script in your monobook.js and then whenever you don't give an edit summary, it will ask to do so. -- George Mon  e  y Talk   Contribs 01:23, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * You can actually just check the box " Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" under the Editing tab in My Preferences. -- Nataly a 02:12, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * The script I am talking about makes a little window popup and prompts you for a summary. -- George Money Talk Contribs 02:27, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Meh, there's already the normal one in. If I'm moving a comma three characters, do I need to say it? H ig hway Rainbow Sneakers 06:53, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, if you're running for RFA soon, you have to be pedantic about these things. My edit summaries were 100% when I ran. It was not a coincidence! :) (In the case youi mentioned, your summary could be "punct" or "fmt"). --kingboyk 09:30, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Font color #CF5440
Where did you find that exact HTML number? -- George Money Talk Contribs 07:00, 8 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Ok, I'll ask her. I just have been searching for the exact HTML number for that color for a long time. -- George Money Talk Contribs 07:10, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Hey Cello
I was wondering...which Esperanzans are using Esperanza as a means to misbehave? This sounds like a total mismatch between the mission of Esperanza and behavior. Kuki ni 22:32, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Re: My RfA
Stay on the right track, Wiki for Wiki's sake, and you'll be fine. Radio Kirk   talk to me  20:39, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, and re your last edit summary, nobody hates you. It isn't a personal thing, just being honest. You'll be a good admin when you are ready; I just don't feel you are yet. Meantime you can continue to be a great editor! Guinnog 17:39, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

As long as others are leaving supportive notes here, I'd like to as well. This time around, I voted oppose in your RfA, but I hope you won't see it as a negative thing. I see potential, and would likely support a future shot at adminship... just looking for some more experience. Keep on track, and I'll be one of your first support votes. Let me know if I can do anything for you. ''' Tijuana Brass ¡Épa! - E@''' 06:22, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Nintendo
I've seen you all over the Nintendo articles, constantly doing good to clean up the articles. As you don't seem to have a barnstar yet, have one! (Only 149 to go before you unlock the roof cannon!)  smurray  inch e  ster (User), (Talk) 21:15, 11 May 2006 (UTC)



Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 01:02, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Favour
Hi, it's me, Evan. Could you do me a favour and go to the editor review page and review me? I've been wondering what people have been thinking about me and what I do here. Thanks! -- Evan Robidoux 21:52, 12 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I got rid of the false message box. Also, I have a few questions... 1} What does FAC stand for? And 2) Are you a member of Esperanza? If so, could you tell me what it does? Thanks. -- Evan Robidoux 22:15, 12 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks again. But there's this problem: I'm not sure if I can get an article to featured article status. It seems like a daunting thing to do. I've pretty much ran out of things to add to any of the articles. How can I think of more things to add? -- Evan Robidoux 22:23, 12 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Sorry if I'm getting annoying, but I have another question - I'm not sure what you mean when you say "new material." Could you please clarify this for me? -- Evan Robidoux 22:39, 12 May 2006 (UTC)


 * How can I learn how to add more info to articles/start new ones? I've used up almost everything I know. Where can I get more ideas? -- Evan Robidoux 22:47, 12 May 2006 (UTC)


 * P Thanks. You've been a big help. -- Evan Robidoux 22:49, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

The Pokémon Collaborative Project
I have read your messages on my talk page, HighwayCello, and will consider joining the Pokémon Collaborative Project when I see it fit. However, I will continue to edit any article I come across, as stated on my user page (which has a drastically slimmed-down userbox), although you might want to take note of the Pokémon-related articles listed under my Articles of Interest. Those are the articles that I pay more attention to. -- A. Exeunt 11:05, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Help
Hi, it's me, Evan Robidoux. Could you help me out with something? I recently welcomed a user (Garret21.) This user created an article called Garret Meyer, which recently got a speedy deletion tag. I think that the user may have mistakenly created the article to use as a user page. I left a comment on his talk page about his possible mistake, but I feel like I may be biting a newcomer. I want to remove the message, but as far as I know, that would be a bad idea. What should I do? -- Evan Robidoux 18:55, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

"This new thing called the internet"
Hi. It's me, Evan. I re-read the answers to the questions I asked you yesterday. I want to add more things to the articles and you said I should use "this new thing callled the internet." :P But there's this one problem: I have to cite my sources when adding things from the internet and after reading some of the articles that are already featured articles, I didn't find many links to other pages (You know, the ones that look like these:  .) I'm pretty sure that the information that might not have a link next to it is from somewhere on the internet, but it doesn't really look like it and I am positive that most users don't know these things at the top of their heads. This really confuses me. Can you help me out (This will [hopefully] be the last question I ask you for a while. -- Evan Robidoux 22:22, 13 May 2006 (UTC)


 * No, I just want to know: do you have to cite everything you get off the rest of the internet or just some of it. -- Evan Robidoux 22:27, 13 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Where should I put the citations, though. Should I use the ones that look like a set of brackets with a number in it or put them in a refrences/extrenal links section of an article? Or are both ways good. -- Evan Robidoux 22:59, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

RE: Pikachu
LOL! :P. Well, I can delete it if you like... --Cel es tianpower háblame 20:07, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

RfA
Unfortunately, your RfA was not successful. I hope that you will continue to contribute to Wikipedia and perhaps consider standing for adminship again in future. Warofdreams talk 00:48, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Some Q's
Yo, I got some Q's -


 * 1) Why do you have "rainbow sneakers" after your name?
 * 2) Why are you obsessed abou signing messages?
 * 3) Why did you think I was being insulting about saying you are obsessive about signs(if you did)?
 * 4) Did you know that people interpret the tone of messages on the internet incorrectly about 50% of the time? Qwerasdfzxcvvcxz 20:14, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Archiving Esp. Talk page
Hey Highway,

Thanks for archiving the Esperanza talk page - it was certainly getting long! My only question - when archiving, is it usually done as an actual page move? I've always copied and pasted things into the archive, just because then it doesn't move the history. Don't know if it matters, though. :) -- Nataly a 20:15, 19 May 2006 (UTC)




 * Well that's good to know! Apparently there is controversy on the methods (didn't know that before), but moving it certainly seems better for busy talk pages.  Happy almost birthday!!  Have an awesome one - here are some balloons for your enjoyment!  -- Nataly a  21:41, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

Sukh's RFA - Thanks!
Thank you for your vote on my RfA. Unfortunately there was no consensus reached at 43 support, 18 oppose and 8 neutral. I've just found out that there is a feature in "my preferences" that forces me to use edit summaries. I've now got it enabled :) Thanks again. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 15:46, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
