Re:The editor review
Hello, and thank you for explaining the issues I raised. There aren't really that many unconstructive edits that I see, it was just the recentness of the userbox issue that led me to bring it up. Just a note: try to be a bit more patient. I saw a few edits, such as when you were being renamed, and when you were waiting for an account at ACC, that seemed a bit impatient. There's nothing wrong with this, of course, but remember that there are literally hundreds of thousands of things which need to be done in Wikipedia, and some editors may place things such as blocking vandals, cleaning up articles, etc. over things such as renamings. I appreciate your clarifying the issues of your comment on the Othello talk page and your !vote at the AfD. Otherwise, you're doing pretty well. However, you might want to change your signature in your preferences so that it links directly to your new user and talk pages; right now they link to your old name, Mr. Wayne. Cheers, Intelligent  sium  02:00, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
 * P.S., Don't forget to review another editor at ER. I've reviewed two today; the backlog there is horrendous. Intelligent  sium  02:35, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Will do. Thanks. The Arbiter  ★★★  02:59, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Re:Just a test
You certainly may use the bit of parser magic I have installed on my userpage; after all, everything you or I put on this website, including our userpages, is free to edit and redistribute with minimal credit. Note that it will not revert even if you undo your edits. I suppose this is what I get for telling people not to stick beans up their noses... Intelligent  sium  01:23, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Hm, so what if they edited, but didn't actually change anything? Also, How do YOU revert it? The Arbiter  ★★★  01:32, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
 * An edit with no change is called a null edit. I don't believe anything would happen in that case, as null edits are not stored in the page history. I have changed it to conform to WP:DENY. Intelligent  sium  01:37, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Well, I tried the new version, but it didn't work. The Arbiter  ★★★  01:44, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
 * No you didn't, and please don't stuff beans up your nose. Intelligent  sium  01:46, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

No, I mean I tried to copy it to my page, and it didn't work. The Arbiter  ★★★  01:49, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
 * That's because you need a backed-up version of your userpage cached away somewhere. You don't have a . Intelligent  sium  01:52, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Ok, got it, and I wasn't trying to stuff beans up my nose. The Arbiter  ★★★  01:53, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Your Contributions Globe
Just wondering if you could tell me were i can locate the image used on top of your "My Contribs" link on your user and talk page. i am refering to the gold earth. Regards  Zoo Pro  12:14, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Also on a sort of related matter, would you be interested in making WikiProject Zoo, WikiProject Animals a new banner / userbox, i am one of the Coordinators for the projects and am wanting to revamp/remake it to bring it inline with our new looks. If you had any thoughts on logo's or anything you think might help please let me know. I would be very gratefull. Warm Regards  Zoo Pro  12:18, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Hey there ZooPro! The gold earth is the image Exquisite-opera.png. It does look pretty cool. And yes, I'd be honored to assist with a new userbox with those projects. I'm assuming you're trying to design a separate one for each wikiproject, right? And is there a talk page discussion somewhere about this? Cheers, The Arbiter  ★★★  23:24, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
 * You would be correct in assuming its to design a seperate one for each wikiproject. I have listed it for dicussion an the talk pages however i wouldnt count on an overwhelming response (i actually wouldnt count on a response) as myself and another user have just re-activated the project after it was dormant for around 12 months. In saying that i did creat a rather simple and unimpressive logo - File:Wikiproject zoo logo.jpg. What we are trying to do is gather some more members as to tackle growing amount of work needed on both projects, whilst WikiProject Zoo was a relative easy task to sort through, WikiProject Animals has almost given me a heart attack its so vast and neglected. Any and all help your willing to provide would be welcomed with open arms.  Zoo Pro  10:32, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Certainly. I used to have an interest in zoology and the like myself, a few years ago. I would be glad to assist with the Wikiproject, and will see if I can do anything concerning templates and userboxes. Cheers, The Arbiter  ★★★  18:01, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Ok, how about this one?

Userbox
I think the font is a reasonable size. My current computer does not support a large variety of fonts though, so it is completely possible that the font which you see and that which I see are completely different. But in reality, we should be focussing more on improving animal articles, rather than what our userbox looks like. Cheers, Intelligent  sium  00:21, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
 * WikiProject Zoo doesn't deal with animal articles we only look after Zoo related articles. Zoo Pro  00:25, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
 * No; we already have a userbox template, which I have just updated. Intelligent  sium  00:26, 16 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes i am aware of that but i have asked The Arbiter to create one for WikiProject Zoo not WikiProject Animals for wich you already created one. this convo was all over the place no wonder i am confused. I am confirming to The Arbiter that i like the WikiProject Zoo box and that Intelligentsium has already created an outstanding userbox for WikiProject Animals.  Zoo Pro  00:37, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Cheers yes i was just about to ask you to implement the new WikiProject Zoo userbox. Thanks  Zoo Pro  00:42, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

WikiProject Zoo
Find a stub class zoo article and work on it until you can get it into Start class or C class. Also feel free to review and re-assess anything i have rated.  Zoo Pro  01:48, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Will do. The Arbiter  ★★★  01:50, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Scrap that idea how about we kick off the Collaboration project i have nominated WAZA.  Zoo Pro  02:06, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I can do both. I'll find a zoo article and work on it. We can communicate concerning the WAZA article. At the same time, I'll be working hard on some stub-class zoo, and also the Indianapolis Zoo, my home zoo. The Arbiter  ★★★  22:54, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Oh, yes. It's very right. Of course, it's under a sort of encryption, so you'll have to decode it. If you just search it it turns up: this. hehe...--  fetch  comms  ☛ 02:17, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
