A question about welcoming new users
Can I ask why you are welcoming new users that haven't even made edits yet? Are you using a bot? Just curious. -- MicahMN | μ 20:49, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what the Wikipedia policy is on welcoming new users, but this is how I interpret the practice: A new user creates a Wikipedia account.  This is most likely because either because they heard about Wikipedia and want to join the editing community or tried to create a new article and, under the new policy, were not allowed to.  Either way, the Wikipedian is going to make an edit.  If the user has already made an edit, then they will be able to read the manual of style, naming conventions (if they joined to create a new article), etc.  If they have not yet edited an article, it might be because they either do not know how to or because they click on "edit this page" and then, confused by the wikimarkup, decided not to edit.  In that instance, the user can then read the editing tutorial listed on the greeting and learn how to edit a page and what the markup means.  If, for any reason, my rationale is flawed and I should stop the practice of greeting all users, please let me know.  Thanks. &mdash;  M ATHWIZ 20 20  T ALK 20:55, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Oh, I don't have a problem with welcoming new users before they make edits, but I think there are problems if a bot is being used to do it (without permission). I just saw a bunch of new User talk pages spring up on the RC list very quickly, and I didn't think it was possible for a person to do that by hand. I'm sure it is entirely possible to do it with a tabbed browser and doing it in a batch. I'm not a policy expert, I was just asking because I was a little curious. -- MicahMN | μ 21:03, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
 * See User talk:Lupin. I don't think that this script qualifies as being a bot. &mdash;  M ATHWIZ 20 20  T ALK 21:06, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
 * After taking your comments into consideration, I now welcome only users who have already made edits. &mdash; M ATHWIZ 20 20  T ALK 20:50, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

It was a simple mistake, I didn't mean to delete anything and was trying to fix it when you did. I have now restored my intended edit, SqueakBox 20:16, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

World Chess Federation
The World Chess Federation is being illegally used by FIDE. The World Chess Federation is an international tradename of the World Chess Federation, Inc a Las vegas Nevada corporation The name may not be used by FIDE without our permission. Redirects of WCF page to FIDE are vandalism —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.189.138.115 (talk • contribs)
 * I'm not an expert on trademarks and that dispute, but I'm pretty sure that going through and deleting the article is not the way to remedy the situation (because people will frankly revert it). If this is a copyright issue (like the text of the article is a copyright violation), then there are ways to remedy that situation. From what it sounds like, WCF and FIDE are two different organizations. If this is the case, then it can easily be fixed. You can edit the World Chess Federation page here. Please let me know if you have any more questions. (And may I suggest that you create a username as well) -- MicahMN | μ 02:26, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

Ayurveda
from the website of a commercial content provider: http://www.ayurveda.gov.lk/history.htm, with no assertion of permission. A commercial content provider is someone engaged in directly making money off the content.

This site is a goverment site, which is maintained by the department of Ayurveda, Sri Lanka. Therefore it is not a Commrcial content provider, also i have taken information from other sources and have referred to them in the article.

thank you.

Making sure..
you know my revert of Jimbo Wales wasn't directed at you, just that it needed to be reverted one more back. But you knew that. Just in case you were confused. Jjjsixsix 21:14, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Hoax
Thank you for spotting that! I should have thought to check who had made the edit, especially with all the shenanigans. SlimVirgin (talk) 01:54, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

You did, however, also remove my vote, which was also made from an AOL IP. I suggest you check my user page and see what my position is in Wikipedia before you remove my votes made from my home computer. Danny 02:18, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

No probs. Apology more than accepted. :-) Danny 13:32, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Help
One of my friends has a sickness and the local Weddha mathaya asked him to get down a medicine called kalu kundan in sinhala ,but he said that it is available only in India we are unable to find this as we do not know the Indian name,Botanical name or Sri Lankan name.

Please can you help me with this. &mdash;the preceding unsigned comment is by 220.247.245.242 (talk &bull; contribs)

Message
Hi Micahmn,

I just received a message which directed me to a User Talk page made by you. The User Talk Page had my ip in the title, and it encouraged me to make an account. Since you made that page, could you tell me how you learned of my ip? Did Wikipedia track the few edits that I made and then told you to make a welcome page for me?

Thanks.

P.S. Good luck on the Klobuchar campaign. &mdash;the preceding unsigned comment is by 70.28.120.170 (talk &bull; contribs)

Follow-up: Thanks for clearing that up Micahmn. Sorry for editing your user page. I will make bold changes when it is appropriate, but more likely than not most of my changes will only be grammatical.

A message
Hi, since you took the time to revert my edit on Talk:Tranny_chaser, I'd like to ask you to take a closer look at the content you restored, which seems to have been ignored for a while now. It's in clear violation on the Wikipedia policy of civility, and continues to spiral down. My edit was more of a tongue in cheek effort to get the parties involved to stop since I know most of them personally. Yes, I'm aware that two wrongs don't make a right, but I'm at a loss of what to do about this situation. Thanks. 151.199.12.41 18:18, 4 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I would love to move the discussion to another forum, where it can be more clear who is saying what (especially since those espousing the "tranny chasers are gay" line are nearly all anonymous) and which wouldn't take up so much room with name calling. One author has ignored my repeated requests to stop using the word "fag" (she even contrasted "fags" with "real men") and attacted me on the basis of my sexual orientation (because that is relevant...).  I would love her to be banned but I would also love to come to some sort of agreement.  It seems the debate / yelling may have quieted down for now, thankfully. --Foxxygirltamara 21:29, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Oh well
Apologies for that. I love it too, it's barely out of my CD player :). Have you listened to the leaked version? I heard it before I bought the finished album, and I have to say that it's definitely worth obtaining. Also, any help with the Extraordinary Machine article would be much appreciated! Thanks.

coolie vandal test
OK the filter is working great...I caught the test vandalism you did on my user page and the script flagged the change and I reverted it almost instantly. Maybe this will help us stop the coolie vandal. good work. EdwinHJ | Talk 05:19, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

My bureaucrat nomination
Thank you for your kind words on my nomination for bureaucrat. I'm disappointed with the results, but heartened by the support I received by so many fine Wikipedians. You're "one of the good-uns", as they say. – Quadell (talk) (bounties) 08:32, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Thoughts on Mr. Clemens and my RfA
Mr. Clemens, thank you so much for your support of my RfA! I am now an admin, and you should consider me at your service should you need any assistance whatsoever! I will strive to be a wonderful admin who never turns rouge. I was in Minneapolis once. Well, I was in Shakopee, specifically, and spent most of my time winning cashola (honestly!) at an Indian casino there. I was not particularly impressed with the Mall of America. At that time, there was not a single bookstore in the entire place! Unbelievable! Thanky thanky, Babajobu 15:22, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Many thanks for your Harrumph on my request for adminiship :) I'm sure you'll be glad to know the final result was 92/1/0. I am now an administrator and (as always) if I do anything you have issue with, please talk about it with me. --Alf melmac 10:15, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for supporting me in my RFA. --TimPope 14:00, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Norm Coleman Page and Galloway
Hello MicahMN, I just wanted to let you know that I totally disagree with your assertion that Sen. Coleman "played a relatively small role in the grand scheme of things" related to his subcommittee's and staff's continued and politically-motivated pursuit of antiwar British MP George Galloway. It is his subcommittee. And if he can't get the subcommittee to go along, he'll get his Republican majority staff alone to do it. This is shown by the second report against Galloway, unlike the first it is by the majority staff only. This is the same majority staff that has been spinning the Wiki Coleman article itself recently. I think his chief of staff was involved in that, read the articles on it. All this does not happen IMO, certainly the expansive and bamboozling second report doesn't, without Coleman's involvement. It is a scandalous use of government personnel.

You imply that you consider the section low quality, I say the recent news about his staff getting in there to spin it (note: NOT correct it) tips us off that something has been done right. I do not know what your motives are, but you seem to prefer a Coleman-friendly article. Last year, more than once and without consensus, you deleted and displaced the section for inevitable later deletion. If, as you are implying you might, you summarily displace or delete this section again, as you did last year, I will resist that. Feel free to let me know if you disagree and why. DanielM 21:04, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Your overreaction
I just wanted to comment on your overreaction on edits on the Norm Coleman article. 

My edit that you angrily reverted was minor and was not the "removal of coleman's anti-abortion position" as you falsely claimed. If you bothered to read the rest of the surrounding paragraph you would see that not only did my edit remove a redundant statement, but the entire paragraph already serves to define Coleman's position. Your false claim would only be true if I had deleted the entire paragraph and called it a minor edit, both of which I would never do.

Here's my advice - please review the context and think before you overreact. If that particular half-sentence was so crucial, it needs to be rephrased to actually sound that way. --Ajdz 17:19, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Input request
Hullo...as promised, I'd like to ask your opinion on this "article". I realize it's somewhat outside your scope of interest, but my guess is you know at least a little bit about its subject matter. The "article" is horribly written and contains no source... the closest thing I can find to a "source" on the intarweb is this gem (notice how freely I use "gem" ... that said, the image on this page is cool, if a bit anachronistic and somewhat unrelated...). I'm not sure ECT warrants its own article (my bias regarding its importance), but I'd like your input before I put much in the way of work toward expending effort to wikify, much less try to expand it into a decent article...

David Cross
Carlton, I did provide a citation on your talk page

Let me check ... hmmm, odd, my Talk Page doesn't appear to require any article citations -- it's not any reader's first stop when checking references on an article. Say, maybe any citation of proof of an article's assertion ought to -- call me crazy -- go into the article itself. It's a crazy plan, but it just might work.

Meantime, part 1 of my edit summary:

IF:


 * something is not important enough to mention in an article

THEN:


 * something is not important enough for a category

doesn't rely upon citation -- no matter where randomly placed -- or even truth value.

Speaking of reading comprehension: what is my name, again? --Calton | Talk 20:44, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

They should name a wikipedia civility award after you.

Too late, I've already got one of these. Seems appropriate, somehow. --Calton | Talk 01:05, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Removing links to sites
I see that you are unfairly removing links to external sites from various listings. The links that you are removing are relevant to the subject and contain further information for people using this site to read more information on the selected subject.

Please refrain from removing site links as this is detrimental to the whole purpose of wikipedia.

Thanks,

Donut.
 * I have no idea what this is in reference to. I've made three edits in the past month, none which were removing "relevant" links. -- MicahMN | μ 18:50, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

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 ForteTuba, 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 00:46, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

At last
At last a wikipedia editor we can actually leave a message for. Is Wikipedia run by DMOZ editors? As the success I've had in adding anything to wikipedia seems about as good as getting into DMOZ' own club, hence my addition to 'W**kers' on wikipedia. I am sorry but this is born out of frustration. Basically it seems absolutely fine for some commercial sites to be added to wikipedia (Err...ipod lounge 200k members, I can't imagine the site owner is paying for that kind of bandwidth as a hobby) yet not others. Wikipedia should either set rules for all or rules for none. And no before you ask I run no sites related to ipods!!! Search the forums guys, wikipedia is becoming the polices police, why bother spending my time contributing for every editor to disagree and class me as commercial, my breast cancer info site was deleted as 'commercial' yet featured not a single ad, affiliate program or adsense ad. I really do hope that the said editor sleeps well at night with the money he makes from his wikipedia (ADSENSE!) site. Hope he sleeps real well as does my wife who's 6ft under.

Stray messages
Hi Micah. Remember me? I think for some reason some people are arriving at my talk page to talk to me, they ignore the huge banner message saying it's my talk page, and they see the welcome message from you, and leave messages here instead. Sorry 'bout that - I'll see if I can fix it. -- zzuuzz (talk) 01:46, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Mark Kennedy
You added a ref to the Mark Kennedy page, but it just goes to the front page of http://www.cq.com. Can you provide the specific subpage? -Ravedave 17:24, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hrm was the article ever physically printed? I don't think password protected pages can be used as references, since you could say anything was on there. On a seperate note how is Washington, I visitied there last year, seems like a cool city. Also wierdly enough the flower place linked on your userpage has a store like on block from my house. -Ravedave 06:15, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Ciresi.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ciresi.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. YellowDot 16:41, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Did you recently make an edit to Robert Berger (mathematician) using this IP address? The change was a subtle one: just the day of birth.

Image:Frosty.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Frosty.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --– Quadell (talk) (random) 21:10, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

hit counter
Hi Micahmn,

I noticed that you have a very good knowledge of how to use Wikipedia as well as the MediaWiki and I was wondering if you could help me out.

I have been working on the Water supply and sanitation by country notes with other professionals in the field. As we understand, Wikipedia turns off hit counters so as not to slow down their servers. However, we have also seen that hit counters can be used on MediaWiki software. Are you aware of any way that hit counters might be included on those pages? Or, if they can be turned on selectively?

Thank you so much in advance for your helpful response!

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Coca-Cola logo.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Coca-Cola logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 19:29, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:Hatfield Logo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hatfield Logo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:42, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi Micah,

Just noticed your template "Clean and Blue" on this page: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gallery_of_user_styles

I really like your style sheet & want to use it for my wiki. Great work.

However, I can't seem to find the monobook.css file location in the Wikipedia directories. Where is it? And is that the only change I need to make it live? It looks that I can switch the setting $wgDefaultSkin in LocalSettings.php to switch out to one of the default skins, but for yours, am I just copying in the monobook.css to whereever it belongs?

If you could email me at cdibrandon@gmail.com with the answer, I would SINCERELY appreciate it since I don't know when to check back here for an answer.

Thanks MUCH in advance!

Brandon

Frosty
A tag has been placed on Frosty, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- JediLofty User ¦ Talk 12:22, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
