Requested template
Hi. I created template:BHS Navbox in response to your request for a template. --CBDunkerson 22:31, 26 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you so much for making the template. Its not the fact that im incompetent, its just that at the mediawiki page for templates there is so much info bull that i dont need. and taht was exactly what i was looking for. --Zack3rdbb 23:12, 26 April 2006 (UTC)


 * No problem. I know what you mean about the help files. I've found it easier to learn templates by experimenting than reading the documentation. Glad the template is what you were looking for. --CBDunkerson 23:52, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Stubs
Hello,

Thank you for your stub submission. You may wish to note that it is preferable to use a stub template from WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types instead of using simply, if you can.

Thanks!Lcarsdata Talk 06:50, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Just joining in regarding your putting stub into Bad River Chippewa Band. Use of stub is deprecated in favor of the most specific stub possible.  Category:Stubs ideally should be empty.  See the list Lcarsdata linked to above to see applicable stub types. Thanks, BanyanTree 21:04, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

"Math" option in "my preferences"
Well, when looking up the various options mentioned, it seems to mostly be a display option. Mine's set to HTML where possible and PNG everything else. I'm not entirely sure about the differences, so I'd look up some "computer programmer Wikipedians" and ask them about the feature. Cybertooth85 17:27, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Stubs
Please don't create articles which only contain navboxes. If you don't have anything to say in the article, it shouldn't be created. User:Zoe|(talk) 02:12, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

Instruments?
You play that many instruments? That's insane...

A short Esperanzial update
As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, &mdash;Cel es tianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

wikEd


Hi, I have seen that you are using the Cacycle editor extension. This program is no longer actively maintained in favor of its much more powerful successor wikEd.

wikEd has all the functionality of the old editor plus: • syntax highlighting • nifty image buttons • more fixing buttons • paste formatted text from Word or web pages • convert the formatted text into wikicode • adjust the font size • and much, much more.

Switching to wikEd is easy, check the detailed installation description on its project homepage. Often it is as simple as changing every occurrence of editor.js into wikEd.js on your User:YourUsername/monobook.js page.

Request for Adminship
Hi, you have submited an RfA, however I am asking you to withdraw to prevent a pile on of oppose votes. Your answer to question 1 shows no reason for you to need the admin tools (fighting vandals is easy without being an admin, you can expand and wikify pages now if you want). I definitely don't want to discourage you, please continue your good contributions to wikipedia, however with so few edits and no real need for the tools I can't see this RfA succeeding. If you want to become an admin (remember though that it's not a title, award or anything like that) then try participating in some admin related tasks such as deletion discussions, page protection or reporting users to administrator intervention against vandalism. Frequent participation (and observing the existing admins' actions) will get you ready to be able to become an admin yourself. Again I don't want to discourage you but I don't see your RfA succeeding. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me on my talk page (or an admin, I'm not one).

Request for Adminship
It is my regretful task to inform you that I have closed your request for adminship early as unlikely to achieve consensus. Please do not be discouraged; a number of users have had their first RfA end without consensus, but have been promoted overwhelmingly in a later request. Please continue to make outstanding contributions to Wikipedia, and consider requesting adminship again in the future. You may find Guide to requests for adminship helpful in deciding when to consider running again. If I can be of any help to you, please do not hesitate to ask.
