Please leave a new message.
If you leave me a message on your talk page in response to my communications, I'll move it here.

It Ain't Hard To Tell

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! We appreciate your contributions to the It Ain't Hard To Tell article, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! –– Ryan Delaney 01:48, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Are excerpts OK? 69.116.150.174 01:48, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

As far as texts go, it would be best if you just read it and rewrote it in your own words. Obviously direct citations of published works, speeches etc are acceptable within fair use. Check out this for more information, and feel free to ask me on my talk page if you have any questions. Haakon 00:24, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Empty edits

Are considered to be vandalism as well, as they waste other editors' time. Please don't do it. OhNoitsJamie 23:28, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

It appeared as if you were making empty edits just to add a new revision (that would show up under recent changes). I apologize for the misunderstanding. OhNoitsJamie 17:54, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Jacob Arabo

Good catch on that. What you can do if you find something like that is rather than tag it, revert it back to the last good version or just remove the offending sections. Take a look at Misplaced Pages:Copyrights, the section is If you find a copyright infringement. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 23:32, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Good job!

Great job catching that linkspammer anon. :) --Ashenai 22:18, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Re: Enta Da Stage

I just think alternating the pictures side to side looks better, plus the way the first picture on the "Conception" area was right under the infobox and left a big space between the "Conception" title and the text. Plus, the star ratings you put on ain't right, the Source link shows a "4 Mic" rating and you put it back to 4 1/2 stars, and I clicked the Sputnik link and it had a 5 Star rating, but you have it at 4 1/2. --PDTantisocial 23:31, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

The Wire

Thanks for reformatting the episode list, it looks better now. Are you interested in helping out with individual episode articles for the show? --Opark 77 07:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC) Thanks for your help, always need someone to clear up the trail of debris I leave! --Opark 77 07:15, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Message from 69.164.69.182

Sincerely,


My bad, Won't happen aagin, write back [please,

Thank you, and good job to you as well. Happy editing. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 18:20, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Your VandalProof Application

Dear East718,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.2 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that for security reasons, VandalProof's creator requires its users to have made 250 edits to mainspace articles, which you have not (see under main here). Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. - Glen 15:56, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Message from 24.143.3.124

stop stalking me 24.143.3.124 22:19, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for the barnstar

Thanks very much for my barnstar. I'm glad you like The Wire section. --Opark 77 08:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

The Wire

I don't mind reverting to the cite template. We can keep it that way if you think it is easier. Andrew Levine 18:36, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Re:warning

The section I removed in the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict article was utterly unencyclopedic. It was completely inappropriate to re-add the section as it was more akin to a poorly-written editoral than anything one should find in an encyclopedia, furthermore there are no no reliable sources for it and there has been discussion on the article's talk page about removing it. Also my removal of the small section in the Ethnic cleansing article can hardly be called a "blank out of an entire section", since it is an obviously disputed situation that has been discussed endlessly, with a small amount of editors determined to continously re-add it. I am sorry but it is very difficult to assume good faith in your motives since the warning seemed very incongruent with my actions and you seemed very choosy in what article's you pointed out.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 18:56, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Do you think you could revert yourself on the ethnic cleansing article? I just do not want to make it appear as if there was a small edit war there.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 19:13, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Apology accepted

Actually, I wasn't even aware of what happened; it seeme the bullets are flying again, metaphorically speaking. +ILike2BeAnonymous 19:04, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

VandalProof

Came across your contributions to Jacob the Jeweller (God he makes the craziest jewelry huh?) and saw you applied for VP - although you haven't quite hit the minimum yet anyone interested in K-1 or Pride is my kinda user :) As such:

Welcome to VandalProof!

Hi, East718, thank you for applying for VandalProof. I am happy to announce that you are now authorized for use, so if you haven't already, simply download VandalProof from our main page and install it, and you're all set!

Warning to Vandals: This user is armed with VandalProof

Please join the VandalProof user category by adding either: {{User VandalProof}} (which will add this user box) or ] to your user page.

If you have any queries, please feel free to contact me or post a message on VandalProof's talk page. Welcome to our team! - Glen 20:33, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

The Wire (TV series) Featured Article Candidacy

The page has been stable for almost a week, the peer review has run its course. The discussion is at Misplaced Pages:Featured article candidates/The Wire (TV series). Andrew Levine 11:25, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

August Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: To-Do List
The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Misplaced Pages, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Misplaced Pages:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
The last AC meeting (full log)
  1. In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Misplaced Pages:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
  2. The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
  3. Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
  4. Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Misplaced Pages talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
  5. Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
  6. There is a page for discussing the front page redesign.
