Editor review
Hi,

I came across your editor review. Do you intend to transclude it to the main page to get some reviews, or can it be deleted? Best wishes, – How do you turn this on (talk) 15:23, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

your sig is broken
Hi, I saw a post of yours on the help desk. your sig is broken. The part that should link to your talk page (here) doesn't work. Ling.Nut (talk&mdash;WP:3IAR) 03:19, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi from Mike S.
Your User: page looks kinda cool, like, with all the little items about stuff like "drinks water", and "has no understanding of time and does everything at the last minute", and "identifies with hacker culture", etc. The little icons are kinda cool too. Just saying. --Mike Schwartz (talk) 03:05, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

McEliece
Hi Melab-1, I know that the Handbook states "at most t ones", I said as much on my comment on the articles discussion-page. However, in the papers that I read regarding the attack on the system the authors assume that the error-code has exactly t ones. I then reread the linked/cited paper by McEliece and found the quote "of length n and weight t". A vector only ever has weight t if it contains precisely t ones. I don't want to rollback the article just to spite you, I'd rather convince you of my position and hope you will re-edit the article yourself. Wishing you all the best.

RE: Parser function
I have answered your question about parser functions at the Help desk. Iceblock (talk) 17:51, 25 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Hello again. I forgot to tell you that the expression I gave you only works for standard time, not daylight saving time. For the latter, the "- 5" must be changed to "- 4". But it might be better to use the #time function like you do, but leave out the #ifexpr and change "h:i:s" to "h:i:s A" in the #time function. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! (I had not studied the time formatting options thoroughly.) And that way you only need to change one expression on daylight saving changes. :-) Iceblock (talk) 21:29, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Fair use images and userboxes
At User:Melab-1/Userboxes/Try Chrome you reinstated a fair use image onto the userbox. Fair use images are not permitted to be used outside of the main article namespace per WP:NFCC #9 restrictions on location. Do not reinstate this image again as it is a direct violation of policy. Thank you. --Hammersoft (talk) 01:21, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

PHP example code
Hello there. I noticed you included PHP code a while ago here. I would like to say that PHP is a wonderful tool; however, it often doesn't allow the coder to write very accessible code. Also, I don't know if your coding habits have changed since October 8th, 2008, but it would be nice if you commented your example code and used more verbose variable names. I apologize if this message came off as rude or insulting; I meant neither.

Other than that, I must say that you have quite an extensive history on Wikipedia. Thanks for helping to make it a great place! Mindvirus (talk) 07:43, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Reviewer granted
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Dabomb87 (talk) 22:28, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Comparison of Android devices
Thanks for cleaning up the table of unknown device listings, but now nothing points to iPed. BTW, why such a wide talk page ? I'm having to scroll right and left to read in it, like searching for a similar post prior to posting mine. --Jerome Potts (talk) 02:37, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of List of computer viruses (all)


The article List of computer viruses (all) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Unencyclopedic list of information, per WP:NOTDIR.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.  MBisanz  talk 03:57, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Requested speedy deletion of User:Melab-1/Copies/WikiProject Computing
This page seems to be an old version of a wikiproject page with no subsequent edits, and it's still appearing in a bunch of project categories. I don't see why you'd want to keep it, but thought I'd post this notice just in case. Pnm (talk) 21:42, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Politics and talk pages.
That old joke about politics is just a joke: "Poly (meaning many) + ticks (meaning blood sucking parasites)". The actual (boring) etymology is here: politics.

Also, the link on the left side of your home page that says "Click here to go to My Talk Page" actually takes whoever clicks it to their own talk page, not yours. StuRat (talk) 05:16, 2 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Digging a little further, we find that the root is Greek πολίτης polítēs meaning ‘citizen’, from πόλις pólis ‘city’. (English polite comes from an unrelated Latin word meaning ‘polished’.) —Tamfang (talk) 08:04, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Regarding Blue Submarine No.6
I fixed the very minor issue you asked plus some more expansion as i wasnt that well experienced before. Anyways next time something that minor doesnt need to be brought up in talkpage unless theres an edit war building up. Other than that i hope you are satisfied on what it looks (currently) and if you see any other articles relating to anime/manga that released in English that need the basic expansion, feel free to let me know.Lucia Black (talk) 05:26, 2 January 2013 (UTC)


 * ON a minor note, it has become B-class now. Lucia Black (talk) 08:32, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

Help to review a new proposed article
Hi Melab-1, I'm looking for editors who can help review a new article I've written on behalf of Rally.org, the online fundraising platform. As you're a member of WikiProject Websites and have some familiarity with website articles and related topics, I was wondering if you'd available to take a look at my draft and provide feedback. As I've written this for the company, I'm anxious to make sure it's neutral and follows Wikipedia guidelines.

If you have time to take a look, the draft is in my user space here: User:16912_Rhiannon/Rally.org You can leave comments on the Talk page and make any edits in the draft as necessary. If you think it's ready to go live, feel free to move it into live article space, I won't move it myself as I follow the "bright line" rule of COI editing and don't edit live articles. Please let me know here or on my Talk page if you have any questions at all. Thanks, 16912 Rhiannon (Talk &middot; COI) 14:34, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

PGP-Key
Hello Melab-1, you tell us on your user-page that you have a PGP-key, but the link is incorrect ("unknown" is not key-ID :-)). Could you please add the correct-ID? Also it would be great if you could send me your key-ID by wiki-mail or leave it on my talk-page. Thanks :-). --DaB. (talk) 14:30, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
