- Be honest Aranel, is that a form/automated letter? --MessedRocker
Elftor episodes
Hello. I've had to delete the article Elftor episodes as it doesn't meet the criteria for Misplaced Pages articles. Articles that are nothing more than external links are not allowed. Basically, what we want to do is provide information to our readers, not direct them elsewhere for the information. If you would like to write an article about the episodes, that would be great. Instead of linking directly to each episode, one link to elftor.com should be sufficient. Thank you. SWAdair | Talk 07:54, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- No problem, my goal was to help people with it, but since it didn't, it's cool. --MessedRocker
Weebl and Bob episode guides
Actually it might not be such a great idea to write guides for each episode of Weebl and Bob, they might not go down too well at Votes for Deletion. It's hard to tell though. Also I think the transcipt is probably copyrighted, so you should try to paraphrase it and use only minimal direct quotes. Kappa 17:31, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Let me contact Mr. Picking and ask what he thinks on the matter. --MessedRocker
Category:Stub
Hi Messedrocker - not sure why you decided to recreate category:stub as a redirect, but it's been speedy-deleted since cfd had already voted to remane and remove it. The only way things go into the category are via a template, so there's no chance of anything new being mistakely added to the old name, and it's easy enough for editors to update their bookmarks and watchlists. New users won't even know of the old name (which was incorrectly formed anyway), as it's not mentioned in any of the wikipages relating to stubs. So, unless there's some reason everyone's overlooked, can we leave it dead please? Grutness...wha? 05:15, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Hey, I was just saying... after all, you might have a good reason for wanting it back, and if so, it'd be worth hearing it. But you didn't go through the usual undeletion procedures (which was why it was speedied). Grutness...wha? 14:18, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- There aren't any articles in the category - which is one of the reasons why it was deleted. The two you see there are "ghost" articles - they have bad names and can't be removed from the list, even though they're not in the category (don't ask me - I don't know why they're like that). As I said, though, every wiki page that used to talk about category:stub now points people to category:stubs, so I really don't see why you'd want it back. Grutness...wha? 14:38, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
How to transwiki an article
Our copyright (the GFDL), requires that a full record of authorship be maintained for each work. This means we must retain a log of the revisions for everything, including content sent to Wikibooks (re: How to solve the Rubik's Cube).
Please read over meta:Transwiki to get more familiar with the process. Also, a transwiki'd page is not a speedy deletion candidate, especially one like How to solve the Rubik's Cube, which has been here since 2002. -- Netoholic @ 7 July 2005 23:27 (UTC)
- I copied the revision history to wikibooks:Talk:How to solve the Rubik's Cube, and logged the tranfer to Misplaced Pages:Transwiki log. It's up to you if you want to put it up for WP:VfD now. -- Netoholic @ 8 July 2005 02:35 (UTC)
Accusations
Some pretty serious accusations you made about me. Vandalism. Heh. Y'know, some bad things can happen to the page of someone who isn't careful. Some pretty baaaad things. --Someoneinmyheadbutit'snotme 18:48, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
- It'd be a reeeeal shame if something...unfortunate were to happen to your page.
Interested
Yep, I'm interested in joining the collaboration. ShadowMan1od 05:17, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

Username case sensitivity
Hi, thought you should be aware that Misplaced Pages is case-sensitive, which makes your user signature potentially confusing, since you sign with "MessedRocker" while your username is actually "Messedrocker". —Lowellian (reply) 08:44, August 27, 2005 (UTC)
- Well I tried registering "MessedRocker" but it changed to "Messedrocker". Should I go to User:MessedRocker and User talk:MessedRocker and have them redirect to the real ones? —MESSEDROCKER (talk) 16:35, August 27, 2005 (UTC)
You probably mistyped it, because registration preserves case-sensitivity. The best solution would be to change to a signature of "Messedrocker", but I guess since if anyone else registered "MessedRocker", they'd be accused of being a doppelganger account of you anyway, so if you want to, go ahead and redirect "MessedRocker" here. You might even register the MessedRocker account as well so that no one else ever gets it. —Lowellian (reply) 18:25, August 27, 2005 (UTC)
