User talk:Fox/September 2009

Hello...

Any idea how to do non-break spaces? Apparently AWITC needs them and I am a bit puzzled about how and where. Rafablu88 18:06, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Erm, could you do them, pretty please? I'm none the wiser. lol Rafablu88 19:49, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

love it

I just love your user page design and the changing colours. Maedin\^talk 07:01, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Can you help?

Hello, I see that you are interested in Wikipedia:WikiProject Record Charts and hopefully you can look into these edits: [1], [2], [3]. Do you think that the succession box for UK number one albums is "unnecessary and inappropriate" in that article? It is the same box that is used, for example, in Eyes Open and many other, if not all, articles about chart-topping albums. But someone keeps removing the box and I just don't get it.

Hahahaha. Rafablu88 20:21, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Oh, and SAR's gone GA. Sort yer table aaaht! Rafablu88 20:48, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

FTC is complete!! Ohhh, yeahhh (said in a sleazy tone). Now all there's left to do is to ask for Heather Phares' hand in marriage. RB88 (T) 00:35, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Awesome! :D I reckon it'd be wise waiting for the FAC to close before we go for it though :)  GARDEN  19:16, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

I'm curious...

I just saw this log entry:

• (Block log); 23:12 . . Garden (talk | contribs) blocked Garden (talk | contribs) (account creation blocked) with an expiry time of a second on Jupiter

Now, I assume it's not a test block, as you've been blocking since 13 May 2008 - so as the heading for this section says, I'm just curious as to what it's all about! -- PhantomSteve (Contact Me, My Contribs) 22:20, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

Look at the rest of Garden's block log. He's a silly little cabbage. <3 → ROUX ₪ 22:47, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

Hehe, yeah. Just suffering from a lack of stuff to do. Remember - a bit of insanity keeps us all sane. :)  GARDEN  17:51, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

Oh well, if it's just a bit of insanity, that's OK... -- PhantomSteve (Contact Me, My Contribs) 17:57, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

Ethical Conundrum

Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates/Trois Quintetti Concertans contains files not uploaded by me, but which I did spend about 2-3 hours documenting, doing basic research, and preparing file description pages for. Since I do, at least, have some strong input into the work, can I claim Wikicup credit? If so, what would a reasonable amount of credit to claim be? Perhaps 3 (one for each quintet)?

2009 Tri Nations Series

Sorry about that! It didn't occur to me that there might still be matches left to play. I wanted to eliminate the issue that inevitably arises when speakers of different English varieties mistakenly believe that "defeat"/"win" should be "defeats"/"wins" (or the reverse) and repeatedly seek to correct the perceived error. Next time, I'll be sure to check our article for the details instead of assuming anything. —David Levy 13:25, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

WTF

Bloc Party discography has all the FL stuff but the only archive FLC says "not promoted". Eh?! RB88 (T) 17:49, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Phew. :) RB88 (T) 19:10, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Snow Patrol

Hi Garden, I'm not sure if you remember, but you once told me to get the Snow Patrol discography page to FLC (when you "mercilessly" redirected the list of songs page to the disco article!) we got around improving it, and its now a FL candidate. You have substantial edits on the page, so you're invited to comment! Talk:Snow Patrol discography. Suede67 (talk) 21:02, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Thank you! Suede67 (talk) 21:09, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Request Admin Assistance

{{adminhelp}} I have been working hard on making The Epstein School Wiki page a quality page that represents the educational community well. any suggestions you have for improvement are greatly appreciated. Also I would like to change the info box to indicate the city to be Sandy Springs rather than Atlanta. Clou2epstein (talk) 20:20, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Thanks Garden...I did see the difference in the code and understand what you did now. I appreciate it! Clou2epstein (talk) 20:48, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Help

{{adminhelp}}

I was trying to uplaod an image a waring came up. I do not understand. I see similar images and logos for other schools ie Roswell high School, GA that are used for Fair Use.

Please help me. I want to put the image in the info box at the top of The Epstein School wiki page. Clou2epstein (talk) 23:25, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Help 2

I forgot to give the location of the upload warning: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Epstein_School_wiki-250_09.jpg

Thanks.Clou2epstein (talk) 23:28, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Help 3

I was trying to put the Epstein image I mentioned in the info box. I tried the following code:

image = 250px| The Epstein School image/logo

It did not work. Please advise.Clou2epstein (talk) 23:55, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Clou2epstein, please stop placing the {{adminhelp}} template on Garden's talk page. If you have a question for her, just leave it here and he'll get to it when he comes online. The adminhelp template is intended for when you have a general question, not directed at any particular person, and should only be placed on your user talk page. Placing it here confuses things for those of us who try to respond to them. Thanks! Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 01:56, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

Please update your status with WP:VG

Dear WikiProject Video games member,

You are receiving this message because you have either Category:WikiProject Video games members or {{User WPVG}} somewhere in your userspace and you have edited Wikipedia in the recent months.

The Video games project has created a member list to provide a clearer picture of its active membership.

All members have currently been placed in the "Inactive" section by default. Please remove your username from the "Inactive" listing and place it under the "Active" listing if you plan on regularly:

• Editing video game-related pages in the Article namespace
• Participating in video game-related discussions in the Project namespace (WT:VG, WP:AfD, WP:GAN, etc.)

Ideally, members are encouraged to do both, but either one meets our criteria of inclusion. Members still listed inactive at the beginning of November 2009 may be removed. You may re-add yourself to the active list at any time. Thank you for your help, and we look forward to working with you.

Requesting Advice/Assistance

Garden,

I am afraid I am beginning to feel targeted. I assure you that I have acted in good faith and have been couteous and polite. Please provide guidance/assitance/insight.Clou2epstein (talk) 04:15, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Input/Guidance/Assitance:

Please provide me with input/guidance/assitance. Despite my continued efforts to act in good faith, I seem to have additional issues with misleading information that have arisen regarding COI. While I have hopefully clarified this, I have requested removal of COI and the REVISED vodcast info to be reverted, and I would appreciate your input on my talk page and discussion page. Thanks Clou2epstein (talk) 18:48, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Admin Coach

Hello. I saw your name at WP:ADCO as a co-coach, and I was wondering if you would be willing to take me on as a coachee by yourself, without another coach.--LAAFan^sign _review 23:15, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
