Infobox Hospital
At least you qualified your breach of WP:AGF by stating "(I think)" :-) Please have a look at the Template:Infobox Hospital which I recently restructured and rewrote. It now provides a number of extra functions, such as automatically expanding up, for Canadian hospitals, the HealthCare details if it is part of the Medicare public healtcare system and the 'See also' field which now automatically includes a link to List of hospitals in Canada.

The change of section header =="I Believe" Campaign== to =="I Believe" campaign== is in line with WP:MOS in not generally having capital letters except for the first word, the "Believe" is clearly part of the campaign's name so I left it capitalised.David Ruben Talk 04:01, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

VandalProof
Are you still logged in to VandalProof? Prodego talk  23:15, 14 December 2006 (UTC)


 * The userlist is corrupt because I broke it. Now I need to find someone who is logged in to make into a mod to fix it, since I can't get in of course... Thanks for letting me know though. Prodego  talk  23:19, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Folk Metal
Yes it was my intention. A great discussion was put on the page of which one user added several unrelated forms of music and his 'favourite bands'. Most decided to remove it because his sources also didnt say what he said, and he created rented websites that did not meet WP:CITE demands. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.153.42.24 (talk) 03:00, 15 December 2006 (UTC).


 * Is your mind really that warped or are you just bent on deceiving people, Leyasu? Anyone can easily check the talk page and the history of the article for themselves to verify the truth. I am far from being the only one that has been reverting your ridiculous edits. It's not exactly a surprise though that you would intentionally create lies when you are none other than the user:Leyasu, a person who has been completely banned from editing on wikipedia. --Anarchodin 03:53, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Important Issues reguarding My I P Address
I have a questions, a while back I edit Z.O.E. site and forgot to log in and it it said my Ip address is 24.85.132.165. However today When I came into Wikipedia but before I logged in I received a warning message that belongs to another IP address called 64.59.144.22 insisting I vandal Shot Online ← Which I even didn't know such an articl exists and didn't even made any edits. Which I find really strange so I checked my IP and it said 192.168.1.100 yet Wikipedia thinks my address is 64.59.144.22 and it seems very strange now did Wikipedia made a mistake or did the user 64.59.144.22 hacked into my computer and changed my IP address to his/her. I just want to know how did could an IP address switch three times? Unfortunatly I don't know how to change my IP address. If you have time could you look further into the IP address 24.85.132.165 ,  64.59.144.22  and mine which is 192.168.1.100. I'm looking forward to hear a reply from you. Thanks!

Featured picture promotion!
Mr. Ninja Pirate,

Just to let you know that the Featured Picture Image:STS-116 spacewalk 1.jpg is due to make an appearance as Picture of the Day on. If you get a chance, you can check and improve the caption at Template:POTD/2007-04-10.  howcheng  {chat} 16:34, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Galaxy distance references
While your intentions in adding referenced distance measurements to articles on galaxies (such as the Sunflower Galaxy) is respected, the references that you used are unreliable. In particular, the seds.org website tends to use unreferenced or out-of-date information in general (although some of their articles are exceptions). Distance measurements from scientific articles are preferable; a couple of us have been working on adding such references to articles on galaxies. See Messier 94, for example. If you would like more information, please contact me; I can point you towards a few reliable references for distance measurements. Thank you, Dr. Submillimeter 11:58, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Look before you leap
Dear User:Imaninjapirate,

Slow down a little! I recently marked a page named Ben Tesner for speedy deletion, which prompted you to leave me a VandalProof warning. Apparently my conversion of this page from AfD to speedy (aka "removing content") was a concern. I may note the previous content of the page:

== BEN TESNER == He is a boy. He lives in Oak Park. His house is under construction. == INTRESTS == Hot wheel collecting Creating wiki pages. TREECKO == FRIENDS == BEN GALPER BRAD HOLIDAY TROY TROY11 BLAKE LEE GARCIA TREVOR WILKIE

Material like this doesn't need a knight in shining armor to defend it. I'm sure it was an honest mistake and nothing else needs to be said. Reswobslc 02:45, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Your revert of my revert on Tea
Hello, Ninja Pirate. In case you did not put my talk page on your watch list, please check it for my comment back to you here  Sean Lotz   talk  04:00, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * P.S. I said it in my edit summary at my revert of your revert, but should have said it here. Thank you for your vigilance protecting WP from vandalism. I was a bit grouchy when I got your message and as a result let myself feel offended. Not appropriate. I really do appreciate your work. If that's the worst mistake you ever make, you're doing better than I.  Sean Lotz   talk  04:27, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Galaxy articles
WilliamKF and I have done most of the work on the galaxy articles. At the moment, I tend to add textual information on galaxies; WilliamKF has been filling in the article infoboxes (although it is based on a system we both developed together). I suggest looking at the Messier 94 or Sombrero Galaxy articles for good examples of how to create galaxy articles and how to reference information.

I strongly recommend using the NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED) for data on nearby galaxies, including positions, sizes, and redshifts. The morphological types are useful, although NED also provides (unreliable) AGN information in the same line; you will need to understand how to separate the two pieces of information to use NED's morphology information correctly.

For distance measurements, I suggest using the following papers to begin with: Note that many other papers have measured distances to individual galaxies as well (see the discussion on the distance to Messier 74, for example). However, you should avoid referencing distances in papers that do not actually measure distances (see my paper on NGC 4631, for example).
 * Ferrarese et al. 2000
 * Karashentsev et al. 2004
 * Tonry et al. 2000

I have mixed feelings about the list of spiral galaxies. It looks like it is nicely formatted, but it becomes yet-another list of galaxies that needs to be maintained (see the list of galaxies, for example). At the very least, I suggest the following changes to the list: You may also want to see the tables that I have created in many pages on galaxy groups; see M51 Group, NGC 5866 Group, or Sculptor Group, for example. Also, let me know if I can try reformatting the pages that you have already created.
 * Create just one list. Aside from the Messier and NGC catalogs, you could potentially include the IC catalog, the UGC catalog, the PGC catalog, the 2MASS catalogs, the SDSS catalogs, etc. Segregating the objects based on which list they appear in is not useful.
 * Merge the "Designation" and "Common Name" columns; most spiral galaxies do not have common names.
 * Add right ascension and declination to the list.
 * Remove the distance column; extragalactic distances are difficult to measure (at best). Instead, use redshifts, which are easier to measure and give implicit information on distance.
 * Change the word "classification" to "type".
 * Put references to the source of information in the header rows of the tables.

Finally, I suggest looking at WikiProject Astronomy and WikiProject Astronomical objects, both of which function as good forums for astronomy-related discussions.

Please contact me if you have any questions or comments. Dr. Submillimeter 14:22, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Regarding your revert on Brampton Transit
No info was removed. An external link section was added. If you had looked closely you would see I removed some empty headers with no info, and moved the transit route info above the See More section.

Barnstar
What are you talking about? That's not nonsense. A lot of sites have said that Sony has failed with the PS3. Don't give me your nonsense warnings. Are you some stupid PS3 fanboy? Go read news articles - even Time magazine has the PS3 in its list of "5 Things That Went From Buzz to Bust."

Reversion dated 23:17, 5 January 2007
Please be more careful when utilizing software liek VandalProof, for example you've just reverted a perfectly legitimate edit: thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 23:30, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, you just reverted one of my edits and it wasn't vandalism. Please be more sure of yourself! 76.178.95.219 22:31, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

=Your on fire tonight!=

I have a question concerning Vandalproof
How do you revert an edit using VP? I've learned pretty much everything I needed to know and got used to using it to warn users and all. The rollback buttons (on top) never appear to be "clickable" (only as soon as I log in but that's it, its gone...) when I need them to revert constant vandalism. So how in the world do I get 'em to activate? How do you get 'em to activate? Power level (Dragon Ball) 06:39, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
 * You online? Power level (Dragon Ball) 20:58, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Your "Here" was linked incorrectly to the Here article. I still can't revert an edit using VP. Please help me. Power level (Dragon Ball) 04:13, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

WP:CVU status
The Counter-Vandalism Unit project is under consideration to be moved to and/or  status. Another proposal is to delete or redirect the project. You have been identified as a project member and your input as to this matter would be welcomed at WT:CVU and at the deletion debate. Thank you!

Nomination of List of spiral galaxies for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of spiral galaxies is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/List of spiral galaxies until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. StringTheory11 (t • c) 00:42, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
