User name change
I saw your post on another user talk and i thought i might be of some help to you. Here is the link to changing your user name. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Changing_username Shotmenot 18:45, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Reply to User Name
I responded on my talk page with this: ''Congratulations on getting a username! In answer to your question, go to WP:CHU for more information. However, since you are a very new user, you might be told to create a new account since your current account has very few edits.''

I know the user above already gave you a link, but I thought I'd at least respond to you. Acalamari 18:55, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
 * It's okay. I decided to stick with a quirky name, I can't be bothered lol. Though I did make tons of edits as an anomynous to music and celebrity articles. Nukleoptra 19:09, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Reply to Userboxes.
I replied with this: Go to this page: Userboxes. Acalamari 19:18, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Um, confused. Nukleoptra 19:24, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I responded with: How are you confused? Acalamari 19:55, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Response: Go to the gallery section of the article. There are userbox collections there. Acalamari 20:04, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Do I copy down the code?

not to interrupt, just giving a suggestion, a great way to learn about them is to view the code from other peoples pages then copy it into yours along with the changes. This is a good thing to do until you learn how to do it on your own. best of luck. Shotmenot 20:25, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
 * To shotmenot: I was going to suggest that. Nice one. To Nukleoptra: I'm glad you took shotmenot's suggestion. By the way, make sure that every time you leave a message on a talk page that you remember to use the ~ so you can sign your messages. I also suggest that whenever you do an edit that you write an edit summary in the edit summary box. Other users might think you're a vandal if you don't use summaries. I, however, know that you are not a vandal. Acalamari 21:10, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Reponse to Virus.
I would have to say it's a coincidence. I've only found the one virus on Wikipedia. If there were more viruses, I'd know about them. Having an account does not make you more prone to catching viruses. Don't you have any anti-virus software and/or a firewall? Acalamari 17:21, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * If the only page you've been visiting is Wikipedia, then it makes sense the viruses would come from here, but if you've been to other sites, they get thrown into the equation. Again, don't you have any anti-virus software? Acalamari 16:28, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
 * AVG is a good anti-virus. My family and I use the most updated version. Acalamari 16:33, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Nicole Richie
Hey Nukleoptra. As a fellow editor, I'd like to remind you of Wikipedia's WP:ATT policy. Specifically, statements like "it is also rumored that Richie didn't pen the novel..." that don't even have a source generally should not be in Wikipedia. If some notable group commented on the rumors, it possibly can go in the article, but as it is it shouldn't be there. -SpuriousQ (talk) 18:51, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah, no worries. -SpuriousQ (talk) 18:57, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Tragic Kingdom
In case you see Tragic Kingdom or any other articles vandalized like that, I'd recommend using blatantvandal or something similar. Various articles have been vandalized with the edit summary MichaelMontalbano from different IPs, and I think several have been blocked because of it. ShadowHalo 19:46, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I have no clue. Based on this one, I'd guess it's the person's name.  Oh, I almost forgot to mention that some of the edit summaries have also been "pie".  I'm even more in the dark on that one.  ShadowHalo 19:51, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I did a search and found nothing notable. It's probably the person's name.Nukleoptra 19:52, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Invite

 * Sure. Thanks for asking. I'm interested in local history in paticular.Nukleoptra 20:07, 16 March 2007 (UTC)


 * In that case, welcome to the Project, it has been very inactive recently so I left a note on the talk page very recently about making it active again, no-one seemed to object so I'm working on making it active again - your help is much appreciated! There are literally thousands of articles which need to be ttaged using WPE and I will be doing a lot of these but fell free to help out if you wish. I hope you enjoy being a member and feel free to contact me!!  Telly addict  21:44, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Courtney Love images
I saw your message about pictures of Courtney Love, and looking at your contributions suggest you're somewhat new to Wikipedia. So let me begin by asking you where you got these pictures from. Did you rip them off a website, did you take them yourself? In order to upload pictures to Wikipedia, you have to have a source, and an applicable "licence" to indicate it's copyright status. See Image copyright tags for more information. Contact me if you have any questions. -- Reaper  X  02:27, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

The Barnstars.
Thank you for the barnstars. :) I've moved them to my barnstars subpage. I'm glad I've been able to help you. Acalamari 17:20, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
 * No problem. :)Nukleoptra 17:21, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject England
Hello! You have probably noticed that WikiProject England has been inactive recently and I and other members are working on making it active again and getting more members to join. I am kindly asking for your help tagging articles for class and importance using WPE, their are literally thousands of articles at Category:England and all of its sub-categories which urgently need tagging ad your help is needed! For more information about theses templates please see the Project Page and I hope you are enjoying being a member!!  Telly addict  21:23, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Log In/Out.
Nothing bad happens, from my experience. Sometimes I haven't logged out; I just close my browser. Anyway, nothing bad should happen. It seems that Wikipedia logs out automatically whenever you close your browser down completely. Acalamari 20:03, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Dropping by to check on you.
Hello Nukleoptra, I thought I'd leave you a message to ask how you've been doing since you signed up. You seems to be doing fine from what I've seen of you. I am very glad you registered. :) Acalamari 19:10, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm doing okay, but I haven't been editing much- my pc's got another nasty virus off MSN and I've been busy. I noticed the rfa thing. Shame it didn't work out. :( Better luck next time. Nukleoptra 20:47, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Good, I'm glad you're doing well. I just wanted to leave you a message to see how you were. As for my RfA, I had mistakes from January and February going against me. All of them combined were enough to sink the RfA. A lot of my mistakes came from inexperience, and most are very easy to avoid. Anyway, you're doing well, which I'm pleased to see. :) Acalamari 20:53, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

WP:POKE is doing some housecleaning
This notice is to inform you that because many people have added their names to WikiProject Pokémon but do not seem to be active, all names are being deleted in an effort to find out who is still truly interested in the project. All you have to do is re-add your name if you'd still like to be considered a member of WP:POKE.

Hey, Peeps, it's that time of the month again (no not that time &mdash; get your mind out of the gutter): time for another monthly edition of the LGBT Project's Love Boat newsletter from your cruise director Miss Julie. So much has been happening this month and I just can't wait to tell you all about it!!!

{| style="font-size: 90%;"
 * valign="top" |
 * valign="top" |

Alice and her harasser
Let's start with some good news: Alice and the project lost the bothersome sock puppet who had been disrupting many articles we monitor, and now most of us can edit in relative peace. Congratulations, Alice, for being able to come out of semi-retirement. Benjiboi, on the other hand, has gained an anonymous IP stalker who seems to be more Catholic than the Pope and who has a hard-on for the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. We seem to have a sort of Yin and Yang thing going on here, which helps both to keep us in balance and on our toes.

Harry Potter and his homosexual teacher
Albus Dumbledore got outed this month, and was immediately adopted by our project. The international brouhaha surrounding this disclosure reached all the way to Wikiland, and his article was briefly locked due to homophobic vandalism (as well as well meaning editors who just couldn't believe that that nice man could possibly be gay). This is a wonderful article to add to your watchlist, and will surely give you hours of reverting fun on cold winter days.

"My Fellow Americans"
On a more serious note, Fireplace has suggested a new article series about LGBT rights in the United States, state by state. This ambitious topic will surely require many editors and a lot of research, but has the potential to add further prestige to our already prestigious project.

Same name, same sexuality: a riddle for the ages
Francis Bacon (not the new gay one, but the old gay one ... though they're actually both dead, now that I think about it) has also aroused passions here on Wikipedia, with editors opposing his sexuality being disclosed in his biography. The always helpful Haiduc has thoughtfully provided any number of sources, but it is slow going getting his point across. Anyone want to lend a hand?

Beat writer arouses Irish guy
And speaking of passions, Jack Kerouac has inflamed the senses once again with editors, including administrator Irishguy, mounting a spirited defense to keep him as heterosexual as possible for Wikipedia purposes. Why? I don't know. Perhaps some of you can drop by the talk page and ask your questions there. I feel certain a stimulating debate will ensue that will be enjoyed by all.

Love those Texas Longhorns
Did you know that one of our Featured articles, Lawrence v. Texas, lost its shiny gold star? That was a shocker. It has been suggested that we turn our attention to it in an effort to restore it to its former glory. I took a peek, and it does need our help badly. For our American editors, it would seem almost a civic duty to edit it (not that I'm hinting....).

Point and Counterpoint
Though it was far too intellectual a debate for a mere cruise director like myself to take part in, Intersexuality was certainly a hot topic a week or two ago. The thrust of the debate was over inclusion in our project. Lots of good editors had lots of good opinions. For those too lazy to check out the discussion, we decided to leave it out for now.

Drudgery on offer
Peer review is, as always, short staffed and seemingly unloved. Wouldn't you feel better about yourself and the world in general if you took a few minutes to read one of the listed articles and offer some helpful advice? I know I'd feel better if you did.
 * valign="top" |

"My Fellow Americans" redux
The article LGBT movements in the United States certainly raised eyebrows last week, especially when it was discovered that copyrighted content had been added to our article. Tragedy was averted at the last minute, though, when the original hosts of the article where the material had been pilfered agreed to make it free to everyone. Our thanks to them, whoever they are. Busy Bee that I am, I haven't had time to read it, but I'm sure it's sensational.

This month's Wiki stars
Lesbian pulp fiction (a genre close to my heart, I must confess) writer Ann Bannon has decided to spice up the featured articles candidates list this month. Why not drop by and make your opinion heard? Joining her in this lofty aspiration are the articles But I'm a Cheerleader and Conversion therapy. I'm sure their main editors would welcome any comments (well, helpful ones, anyway) on the talk pages or the FAC discussions. And lest we forget, the List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people: Sd-Si became a Featured list!! Rah rah, siskumbah! Go, team, GO!!!!

And the Oscar goes to...
Not content to run for Best Actress, plucky Bannon won a Best supporting actress Oscar... whoops, I meant to say Ann is also getting more than her share of womanly attention on the Good Article list. Joining her on this exalted plane are Freddy Mercury, Waylon Smithers and Lance Bass. Good articles indeed, and the last one mentioned just goes to show that one needn't admire the subject of an article to appreciate the effort put into making him worthwhile reading. What on earth Britney ever saw in him I'll never know. Truly a riddle cloaked in an enigma and wrapped around a puzzle.

Fresh faces to brighten our pages
Though I may not be the first, let me extend a warm, LGBT Love Boat welcome to the 12 new members who joined us in October: Jliberty, JockCub360, ChristopherEdwards, Desiderius82, Zlrussell, Kelsied, BeardedWoof, Mujerado, Tyrfing, Fabgurrl, Redl@nds597198, and decafdyke! Whatever you choose to do here, I feel sure that your contributions will enhance our project to no end. And if they don't...well, let's just say that I'm not shy.

Leather and lace
On a personal note, your already overworked cruise director is being cyberly whipped almost daily by Nemissimo, who desperately wants to get the German BDSM translation copy edited and used as a replacement for the current one. It's such a ... err, stimulating topic that I am sure many of you will want to join the copy editing fun. Jump right in, folks! It's so lonely copy editing it all by my lonesome!

Late breaking news
A little birdie just whispered in my ear that our noble collaboration project was delisted from the Community Portal due to inactivity. When asked how this scandalous turn of events could have occurred, the answer I received was "we suck at stuff like that". Well. In the first place, I disagree that sucking should be considered a negative, but to each his or her own. In the second place, I have full confidence that we can and will collaborate with other projects in the future. So let's not view this as a setback (even though it is), but rather a challenge to improve (and good Lord, I sound almost Wikipedian!).

Champagne dreams and caviar kisses
Lastly, the holidays are rapidly approaching. Our American cousins are currently getting ready to slaughter masses of poultry in an effort to show their gratitude and generally peaceful demeanor, and those of the Canadian persuasion, trendsetters that they are, celebrated a bit early this year. I'm sure all us foreigners will join together in wishing them all a very happy Thanksgiving on their respective holidays, both already celebrated and forthcoming... though I would hope somebody would enlighten me as to why they don't celebrate it on the same day. I was awake all last night trying to figure that one out. - In the spirit of this peculiarly North American holiday, let me take a moment to thank all of our editors for their contributions to this project. It's people like you who make people like me...well, a "people person"! May all your Wiki days be bright, and may your Love Boat never turn into a Poseidon.

Message from the My Chemical Romance task force
Hello!

You may be interested to know that the WikiProject My Chemical Romance has recently been transformed into a task force of WikiProject Emo. Please visit the task force page to see what's new. This move allies the task force with a larger WikiProject that handles much of the administrative overload, thus allowing task force members to focus on the most important activity: article improvement.

The project's membership list has also been moved to the new task force page. If you see that your username is in the "Inactive/former members" section, please do not take offense; this is because you no longer appear to be active on Wikipedia. We may also take the liberty of removing the member userbox from your userpage if it appears there, to prevent you from automatically appearing in Category:My Chemical Romance task force members. Of course you are free to rejoin the task force and re-add the userbox at any time if you would like to become active again.

For active editors, it is our hope that this change will help spur you to improve articles related to My Chemical Romance. You may have noticed that the old My Chemical Romance project userbox on your user page has automatically changed to the new task force userbox. We may take the liberty of fixing the template link on your userpage, to avoid redirects.

Thank you and we hope you will continue to support the My Chemical Romance task force!

Queen WikiProject
Hello, I am leaving you this message as part of a personal effort to revive the Queen WikiProject of which you are listed as a participant. If you are not interested in committing yourself to contributing to Queen related articles please go about removing yourself from the participants list on the project page. On the other hand if you are interested in the project and do wish to contribute, I encourage you to head over to the project's talk page to work towards outstanding tasks and share ideas on how Queen-related articles may be improved.

Thanks for reading this, and I look forward to your response. Such a legendary group deserves to be honoured with quality articles on Wikipedia and it is a great shame such a project has gone inactive.
