Adoption?
Hello, would you be interested in being adopted by me? Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 17:33, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
 * You placed your message on my userpage rather than my talkpage. If you look at the top of this screen, you can see several tabs at the top of this page. One of them says "userpage", and the one to the right of that says "discussion". Whenever you want to message someone, click on the discussion tab and that will take you to their talkpage. Then you can click on the little + next to "edit this page" to add a new section, and write your message.
 * Anyway, I would be delighted to adopt you. My other adoptee is also-part-time, so how long you spend on Wikipedia is your call. Add to your userpage, and it's official! I'm fairly new to the adoption process myself, but here's how I'm currently working: you are welcome to contact me if you have questions related to anything on Wikipedia, like how to edit, where to go for things etc., if you need help with anything, like if you get into an argument, or have general problems, or if you just want general advice. I, for my part, will periodically look through your contributions and let you know if you're making any inadvertant mistakes. That sound OK? Would you like to suggest or change anything?

 * The way you're citing sounds fine, generally it doesn't matter what citation form you use as long as you're consistent throughout the article. The more conventional form of referencing, however, can be found here, and generally info on the different types of referencing here. Btw, I notived you are using html code to indicate paragraph breaks. Did you know that you can simple leave a blank line

and it will do the same thing? You might want to take a look at this page on wiki markup. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 10:57, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Yo Jim, do you still want to be adopted? Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 23:10, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Hello! Just wondering how it's going - and are you going to the Wikimania 2007 in Taipei? Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 11:02, 30 March 2007 (UTC)]
 * Sounds great, but I can't actually read it. I have to go offline until June now, but I will be on for an hour every day to cover any issues you're having. Sorry about this, but I really do want to pass my exams... Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 18:17, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * A2s (high school finals?) - 13 exams over about fifteen days. Not fun. A PhD sounds like it might be. :) Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 08:33, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Alas, I cannot attend through lack of cash, and I missed the scholarship deadline - mea culpa, I was lazy. Your presentation looks both daunting and fascinating, make sure they tape it so I can watch it on the site afterward! Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 16:35, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Oy!
You need to upload your notes! How can I read your presentation if it's missing? Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 00:37, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Are you sure? I can't find your presentation anywhere and I've been looking fairly hard... Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 21:37, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
