A little beam of sunshine :)
 Hello Fridae&#39;sDoom, Clementina has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Go on, smile! Cheers, and happy editing! → Clementina  [  Scribble  ] 08:01, 1 October 2010 (UTC) Smile at others by adding {{subst:Smile}} to their talk page with a friendly message. Of course I remember you, dear Fridae! :) Great job with the new mottos (I'm a nobody here, though, so my opinion isn't really much ;)). See you around! Love, → Clementina  [  Scribble  ] 08:01, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks Clementina :) You're not a nobody, everyone's opinion is valuable. Others choose not to express theirs. Love and warm regards, —  Ғяіᴆaз'§Đøøм •  Champagne?  •  6:06pm  •  08:06, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

RfA
I've given it a lot of thought, and I've decided that after I have at least five more DYK credits on my userpage, I will be ready for an RfA nomination. Keep an eye on my userpage, and when there are six DYK top icons there's already one, feel free to nominate me (don't forget to contact me first). Sound good?

 * Ok then, sounds good to me :) Sorry I couldn't reply earlier I was helping out my local church with spring cleaning (even though spring's over here in Australia ;) ) I've got lots of pages listed, I'll keep an eye out on yours especially though.

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, 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 (talk) 15:49, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

When I meant at the bottom, I didn't mean literally at the bottom. Personal life sections usually come after the Music career section. I've really not seen a musician article that has the personal life come after the early life. Its usally Early life then music career. And theres really no need to expand what it says in the personal life section because its nothing major. ozurbanmusic (talk) 03:32, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Its vandalism to me when its unsourced and added in the early life section. That sort of information is really not needed on the article. And the personal life section looks better at the bottom. They don't go after the early life. A good example of this is the Beyonce Knowles article. ozurbanmusic (talk) 03:37, 9 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Did you check the Manual of Style in regards to the layout? Regards, — Ғяіᴆaз'§Đøøм  •  Champagne?  • 2:39pm •  03:39, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

What about the layouts? they look fine just the way they are and have no problems. Please do not add the X Factor slip up in the lead, as it should not go there. You can add in the X Factor section in the Other ventures but I think its really not needed. ozurbanmusic (talk) 03:47, 9 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Wikipedia omits nothing, it's an encyclopedia, I moved it to the X-Factor section. What about layout? It has to conform to the Manual of Style... if an article doesn't conform it gets deleted. Regards, — Ғяіᴆaз'§Đøøм  •  Champagne?  • 2:55pm •  03:55, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Your the first person's nomination i closed right on the time,it had enough votes, instead of it going over the required 7 days like other nominations. Spongie555 (talk) 00:21, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

An update from adopt a user
Hi there ! You may be wondering, what have I done to sound the alarm this time? Nothing. I'm messaging you in regards to the adopt-a-user program, which currently has a backlog of users wishing to be adopted. This doesn't make much sense, as we have a considerable list of users offer adoption, so there shouldn't be any backlog. I've begun to eliminate this backlog myself through a matching program, but I need your help to make it work. Of course, adoptees and adopters don't have to go through there, but I believe it helps eliminate the backlog because someone is actively matching pairs.

On the list of adopters, I have modified the middle column to say "Interests." It's easier working with other users that have similar interests, so if it's not too much to ask, could you add your interests in the middle column? For example, if I was interested in hurricanes, computers, business, and ... reptiles? I would place those in the middle column. Counter-vandalism and the like can also be included (maintenance should be used as the general term). The more interests, the better, since adoptees can learn more about you and choose the one they feel most comfortable working with. The information about when you're most active and other stuff can go into the "Notes" section to the right.

Finally, I've gone around and asked adoptees (and will in the future) to fill in a short survey so adopters can take the initiative and contact users they feel comfortable working with. We all know that most adoptees just place the adopt me template on their user page and leave it - so it's up to us to approach them and offer adoption. So, please take a look at the survey, adopt those that fit your interests, and maybe watchlist it so you can see the interests of adoptees and adopt one that fits your interests in the future.

Once again, thank you for participating in the adopt-a-user program! If you wish to respond to this post, please message me on my talk page.

Answers
1. What is vandalism? - Vandalism is the act of incorrecting information on a certain page.

2. List 3 situations where a edit which could be considered vandalism, may not actually be vandalism. - Accidently mistyping a certain word, editing incorrect information to incorrect information and editing incorrect information to correct information (though the reverter may not think it's correct?)

3. What are obvious indicators of a vandalism edit while watching recent changes? - Very tiny bytes added and IP addresses shown instead of users to hide identities.

4. How do you revert vandalism? - Go to 'Recent Changes' and find a IP addressed edit, rollover the link (this requires popups), click 'Actions' then 'Revert'. The script then reverts the page back before it was vandalised.

5. What warning template would you use if a user removed or blanked all the content from a page? - If that user hadn't vandalised before, you would add a Level 1 template. If they have once, you give them a Level 2 and so on and so forth.

6. What warning template would you use if a user add the words "i really hate wikipedia!" to an article? - As I said before, if that user hadn't vandalised before, you would add a Level 1 template. If they have once, you give them a Level 2 and so on and so forth.

7. How do you add an article to your watchlist? - Since I have the old version, I am going to explain it by the old version. You go to the page you would like to watch and click 'Watch' at the top of the page.

8. If you misuse such tools as WP:TW or WP:VPRF what could happen? - You could get blocked. You shouldn't use it if you don't understand how to use it.

Request, and a talkback

 * Hi Fridae, I have a request to make. When you post any new message on my talk page, and if the same relates to a new occurrence, kindly do post the messages at the bottom of my talk page rather than appending your new messages to some old messages that you may have left on my talk page. You've also in between appended your messages to one other editor's message on my talk page. I have noticed you do the same on some other editors' talk pages too. This all may well be inadvertent and in all probability is an oversight. Therefore, please do take care in the future, at least on my talk page, as I might simply miss your message given that I have many messages on my talk page. Also, I have replied on my talk page with respect to your request to get back your ACC permission which I had withdrawn post your suspension from the ACC Tool Server interface. Finally, keep smiling   Wifione    <sub style="font-size: 60%">....... <sup style="margin-left:-3ex"> Leave a message  08:55, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

DragonFable
I know a while ago you tried to make an article for AQWorlds. If you're interested in helping, I'm working on one for DragonFable in my userspace, here. Harry Blue5 (talk) 09:45, 13 October 2010 (UTC)


 * I too am at school right, so I can't really edit right now, like you. However, when I started the article, I had the most recent version of DragonFable e-mailed to me. It had no non-primary sources. And not many primary sources either. I can really see why it was deleted, viewing it makes me realize just how non-notable it must've looked, length of the article aside. Harry Blue5 (talk) 12:10, 13 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Indeed, some Wikipedia mirror websites have the versions before that that include gameplay info etc. The laptop I use is part of the Digital Education Revolution in Australia, it belongs to the government until I finish Year 12 and it's the only computer I can use until the end of the year.

 * Fridae, do you know anywhere where I can get a source for confirming the release date (both test and live, though live is the more necassary). It doesn't have to be third-party, since its just there for confirmation, but if it is third-party, that'd be nicer (as it establishes some, albeit a small amount of, notability).

 * Dear gods, I'm wondering if anyone actually checked IGN for sources for AQWorlds when it was on AfD. How many more sources do we need? Harry Blue5 (talk) 21:23, 22 October 2010 (UTC)


 * It wasn't so much as I had trouble splitting the plot into subsections, but a subsection for every zone was overkill. I was planning on reducing it, preferably to one paragraph per zone or some such, and then seeing what fitted where. Harry Blue5 (talk) 23:16, 22 October 2010 (UTC)


 * We could shorten it to just being the Chaos Beast and the Chaos Lord, then see how we can reasonably expand that. Harry Blue5 (talk) 00:03, 23 October 2010 (UTC)


 * I think the problem is that it was originally being updated each release, making it so loads of unessential information was added. The Dwarfhold segment really should be "The dwarves are being enslaved by Vath, a Drow DragonLord who is magically controlling a dragon named Stalagbite. Vath uses the dwarves to summon the Roc Roc but is defeated by the player and dragged off by Stalagbite." However as it stands the Vath bit last a few paragraphs, and when you read it in the plot it all sounds a lot more important than it actually is. Harry Blue5 (talk) 00:23, 23 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Should we make AdventureQuest Worlds a proper article now? We seem to have enough sources, and we can always shorten the article's plot later, perhaps even with the help of other people. Or we could just hope for the best and hope some random guy does it for us. Harry Blue5 (talk) 22:19, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi Fridae'sDoom! At the top of your user page are three icons that I would like to add to the topicons on my userpage.

 * I used to have tonnes of userboxes, but I moved them all to a subpage in my user namespace that I do not link to from my userpage. Maybe one day I’ll clean them up and put a userbox link on my userpage. On another note, I never realized that one should track everything one does. So, I have no record of pages I’ve marked for speedy that got deleted, stubs I’ve cleaned up, stubs I’ve turned into full articles, articles whose bare URL references, I’ve fleshed out, etc. It seemed too tooting-one’s-horn for me; but, now I see that it has some importance here on Wikipedia. (sigh). Thanks again for letting me into the secret world of your header file. By the way, how do you get the stuff to transclude into your userpage, as you do, without there being any transclusion coding (e.g., ) ? Thanks! —  Spike Toronto  18:32, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I copied the code and put it into one of my many subpages, but it's not possible to transclude without having the actual code in the twiggy brackets. I don't keep track of anything these days lol. Regards, — Ғяіᴆaз'§Đøøм  •  Champagne?  • 9:55am •  22:55, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

The WikiCup has faced criticism in the last month – hopefully, we will take something positive from it and create a better contest for next year. Like Wikipedia itself, the Cup is a work in progress, and ideas for how it should work are more than welcome on the WikiCup talk page and on the scoring talk page. Also, people are more than welcome to sign up for next year's competition on the signup page. Well done and thank you to everyone involved – the Cup has been a pleasure to run, and we, as judges, have been proud to be a part of it. We hope that next year, however the Cup is working, and whoever is running it, it will be back, stronger and more popular than ever. Until then, goodbye and happy editing!
