Bettas
Hi! I got your message about betta care and I'd love to give you some tips, but the wiki community generally discourages using talk pages for "non-wiki" discussion. Try reading through the "In the aquarium" section of Siamese Fighting Fish, I don't really do anything differently (though one tip: try feeding "freeze dried" live food, rather than pellets, bettas love it and it's really good for them!). Good luck with your betta! Pharaoh Hound 14:26, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Ryan Catholic College article
Hi, I've removed the criticism section of the Ryan Catholic College which you added, since you have not listed any sources for it. We are not opposed to critical views on the subject of the article, but statements like these do need to be backed up by a reliable source. If you think this section should remain a part of the article, please provide a reliable source. Thanks! --JoanneB 20:55, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

AA flight
That's right, bit by bit we keep building and before long we'll have an encyclopedia. :-P Keep up the good work! Johntex\talk 08:22, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

PROD warning
I've added the "prod" template to the article American Airlines flight 1740, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also What Wikipedia is not and Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:American Airlines flight 1740. If you remove the dated prod template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Batmanand | Talk 09:00, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Ads
Not sure which post of mine you were referring to, but these days I'm more towards the no-add camp. If it's needed to maintain the roject, then ads-on for anon's is a bit of a compromise, but I'd like them to have a ad's-off cookie based option if we ever have to go down that route. — xaosflux  Talk  01:58, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks, just found it! >6months agao, time flies. That project hasn't done a lot lately, and the current trend on the mailing lists is for continuation with no ads, if the fundraisers don't meet the goals though, we may have to reconsider.  Happy editing! —  xaosflux  Talk  02:02, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

RE:Wow!
Hello! I hope you are feeling fine. I would just like to reiterate some points which you have made to me. Firstly, whenever I vote for articles to be kept or deleted in AfD pages, I would generally support for the inclusion of the particular article. But sadly, this is not always possible because of notability issues. I tried to vote keep for most articles and this had cost me some votes in my first RfA because of this. Secondly, in my second RfA, the community felt that I lack basic understanding of some of the policies of Wikipedia. I accepted this judgement and decided to continue making quality edits to this project. However, I do not think that I would be running for another RfA soon because of the recent fiasco (which was unintentional) which I had done! I accidently voted twice for some RfAs and in my opinion, this is totally unbecoming of a future admin. Frankly speaking, I am really embarrassed about this catastrophic mistake. If I run for admin again, I am sure many users would oppose my adminship because of this.

As for my ideals of this project, I am ever committed in realizing this goal of containg ALL human knowledge in Wikipedia. I strongly believe that in the near future, the issue of notablility would not be a main factor in creating articles about stars, galaxies, people, etc. Good luck to you and I wish to thank you for your kind remarks. -- S iva1979 Talk to me  05:33, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Your articles on Italian greetings
I'm afraid that Wikipedia is not a dictionary, so please do not create articles on words and phrases that only state their meaning. (By the way, 'goodbye' is spelt 'arrivederci' in Italian.) :) - ulayiti (talk)  01:38, 24 June 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry if I seemed a bit rude, it wasn't my intention. Let me offer you a warm welcome to Wikipedia on my behalf as well, and hope you like the place enough to stay. :) - ulayiti (talk)  11:57, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Re: Impersonators
I suppose I just have a few enemys from when I blocked them in the past, vandals mainly. I don't expect they're all the same person though. —  Fire Fox  10:04, 02 July '06

AFD on American Airlines flight 1740
I have started an AfD listing at Articles for deletion/American Airlines flight 1740. You contributed heavily to the article, so I thought it only fair to inform you and welcome you to participate in the debate. Batmanand | Talk 10:12, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Barnstar
Why, thank you :D I'm honoured to receive the barnstar, especially as nobody has given me a barnstar for vandalism before :) Cheers, and happy editing, Tangot a ngo 09:15, 10 August 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 12:07, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Esperanza!
Welcome, Jam01, to Esperanza! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is Stressbusters, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Proposals.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Natalya by email or talk page. Consider introducing yourself at the Esperanza talk page! Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an IRC tutorial. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!

Thanks, Jam, for your support at my RfA, which finished with a tally of 94/1/0. I hope I live up to the confidence you have shown in me in my activities as an administrator.

Many thanks!
Thanks very much for the barnstar, Jam! That's very nice of you to say, and brought a smile to my face. :) -- Nataly a 02:40, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your kind words and the barnstar. Without the proper tools (yay VandalProof!), I definitely would not have been able to revert so much vandalism. Thanks again, and happy editing! -- Nish kid 64 16:52, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the barnstar
He Jam! It's a pleasure to receive a barnstar from you. Thanks mate and happy 500 edits!

I've been thinking about changing the layout of my userpage lately but maybe you gave me an opinion which could change my mind. By the way, which browser are you using? I am not sure about the way it looks in other browsers. I am using mozilla. -- Szvest 22:54, 7 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks again. See you around in esperanza. -- Szvest 23:01, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Smile


has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Smile to others by adding {{subst:smile}}, {{subst:smile2}} or {{subst:smile3}} to their talk page with a friendly message. Happy editing!

Beautifying Userpage
Hey there! Thanks for the compliment at the Coffee lounge. I see you would like some assistance with your userpage... may I help? — E ditor at L arge ( speak ) 18:16, 9 October 2006 (UTC)


 * All right! Blue or green... light? Dark? Combination? silver& blue? Is there a theme I should follow (Esperanza, a sport, a time period, etc; like mine, which is based on an Egyptian theme)? Are there any pictures you would like included?
 * Should I just make up a few different ones and you can pick? — E ditor at L arge ( speak ) 11:59, 11 October 2006 (UTC)


 * No problem! If it was too much work I wouldn't have volunteered to do it ;) Do you mind if I go ahead and make the necessary subpages under your name? I can make them under mine until I'm done of you'd rather. — E ditor at L arge ( speak ) 09:04, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Userpage redesign
I have the basic layout done. Check it out and let me know what you think! If you have colour suggestions, additional information, or anything else, write it on my sandbox's talk page. You can go ahead and make the changes yourself, too, if you'd prefer. Cheers!— E ditor at L arge ( speak ) 04:54, 20 October 2006 (UTC)


 * No prob. It was my pleasure! As for web-safe fonts:


 * Sans-serif
 * Arial, Arial Black, Arial Narrow, Helvetica, Gill Sans, Lucida, sans-serif, Trebuchet, Verdana
 * serif: normal fonts with serifs
 * Times, Times New Roman, Palatino, Bookman, New Century Schoolbook
 * monospace: fixed-width fonts
 * Andale Mono, Courier New, Courier, Lucidatypewriter, Georgia, monospace
 * cursive: fonts that emulate handwriting
 * Comic Sans MS, Zapf Chancery, Coronetscript, Florence, Parkavenue, cursive
 * fantasy: decorative fonts
 * Impact, Arnoldboecklin, Oldtown, Blippo, Brushstroke, fantasy


 * These were found on a list somewhere, and I can't speak for its correctness. I believe it's pretty much right. And let me know if there are any colour changes you'd like: the blue, black & white was just my simple solution. I can make another version in green if you'd prefer (an Esperanza theme).— E ditor at L arge <font color=darkgoldenrod face=papyrus>( speak ) 03:53, 21 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Did you want to go ahead and transfer the design to your page? You can change the font yourself if you'd like (just remember that the font on the titles for the expandable navframes will need to be changed on their pages, as they're templates to keep the page smaller). — E <font color=darkred face=papyrus>ditor at L arge <font color=darkgoldenrod face=papyrus>( speak ) 03:48, 23 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Absolutely! I put three colour options in my sandbox. Let me know if you like any of them... you can go here or here to see if you can find any colours you'd prefer. Let me know! — E <font color=darkred face=papyrus>ditor at L arge <font color=darkgoldenrod face=papyrus>( speak ) 04:13, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm... I added your choice, but I'm not sure if it's what you were thinking of. Colours tend to look different in large quantities than small samples would suggest, which may be the case here! — E <font color=darkred face=papyrus>ditor at L arge <font color=darkgoldenrod face=papyrus>( speak ) 04:37, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Hello again! Yes, headache indeed. I changed it to three other shades of green: I tried the darker one you suggested, but trust me, it looked bad. Dark colours (unless they're really dark) generally don't turn up that well, and you have to change the font colour throughout. Trust me, what I went through to get my userpage was not fun. I'm not saying you can't do it, but it's not just the normal text you have to change: you have to go through and change the link colours, as well. That shade of blue doesn't turn up that well against darkish colours. Anyway, let me know if you like those few; there are some others I can try if you don't see one you like yet. — E <font color=darkred face=papyrus>ditor at L arge <font color=darkgoldenrod face=papyrus>( speak ) 05:33, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Not a problem! If you want a picture for your page to fill in the space beside your info, just give me the name of it and I'll add it in (look at my page to see what I mean). And if there was any info you added after I copied it or info I missed, just point it out and I'll add it in.

Article about Wikipedia Users
I am a freelance writer working on an article about the wide array of people who make Wikipedia their life, their passion, their pastime. Wikipedia “addicts” if you will. I’m looking for people just willing to tell their story of how they got sucked into the intellectual whirlwind that is Wikipedia; how you got started editing, how the obsession grew, and what you spend your time focusing on these days? Do you write articles from scratch? Is your main push toward one particular type of article? Do you patrol for typos and errors, or spend your time diligently fixing vandalism? Do you take part in the “social aspects” of Wikipedia; engaging in animated discussions or decorating your user page with all sorts of internet memes? Have you ever forced yourself to take a “Wikipedia break”? If so, what’s your 20/20 hindsight on the obsession? Basically I’m just trying to get an idea of what it’s like for various Wikipedia “addicts.” I am especially interested in speaking to you about your thoughts on Esperanza and the Esperanza Barnstar Brigade. If you are interested in participating, please email me at brianwrites@gmail.com68.39.158.205 03:16, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Concordia Newsletter
NEWSLETTER

Concordia is currently trying to relaunch. I, and all the members of the ex-council, wish to welcome new members to the group. We are a group who aim to promote remaining civil, in an environment where messages can easily be interpretated wrongly.

Help out now!
We are a community, so can only work though community contributions and support. It's the helping that counts.
 * Try and help people remain civil! Talk to them, and help them in any way possible. Do not be afraid to use the talk page.
 * Give people the Civility Barnstar.
 * Make and spread some Wikitokens so people know there are people to help if they want assistance.
 * Add banners or logos to your userpage to show your support.
 * Suggest some ideas! Add 'em to the talk page.

Decision Making
The council expired one month ago, but due to the current position of the group the current council will remain until the position of the group can be assessed, and whether it would be sensible to keep Concordia going. For most decisions, however, it will be decided by all who choose to partake in discussions. I am trying to relaunch because of the vast amounts of new members we have received, demonstrating that the aims are supported.

If you wish to opt of of further talk-page communications, just let us know here.

Fair use rationale for Image:MashedCover.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:MashedCover.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Seraphim Whipp 15:02, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

First Edit

Orphaned non-free media (Image:MOPy1J.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:MOPy1J.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:07, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:DSCN0255.jpg, has been listed at Images and media for deletion.

Fair use rationale for File:CotN Basket.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:CotN Basket.JPG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:38, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Simsvr.JPG
Thanks for uploading File:Simsvr.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:33, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
