Userpage

{{helpme}} Does anyone know where I can find, or how to design a userpage? My current one is so disorganized, please drop a note if you can help. Thanks and Cheers! Mww113 (talk) 14:29, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

If you're looking for design tips or assistance, you might want to have a look at Wikipedia:User Page Design Center. Hope that helps. haz (talk) 14:41, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! I didn't know about that. Mww113 (talk) 14:43, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Coincidentally enough, I only found out about it this morning myself! It turns out that my userpage was listed by The Transhumanist at the Hall of Fame, although that permalinked version now looks very red due to a lot of category and image deletions since. Surprised I hadn't noticed up until now, considering it was listed in late 2006!

Questions

Hello! I found this article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poo_monkey) which is just... nonsense. I'm not sure how to deal with it so I put it up for speedy deletion, was this the right thing to do? Helenginn (talk) 10:20, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Certanly, the article is complete nonsense, you put it up for speedy deletion under the right criteria and an administrator will shortly delete it. Good job! Mww113 (talk) 11:15, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Yayy! :D How on earth is that smiley face made? I have another question... about reverting vandalism, I can seem to "undo" vandalism but I can't do the "revert to previous revision" thing like everyone else does. How do you revert...?

Thank you for being so helpful! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Helenginn (talk • contribs) 11:21, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

That's what i'm here for. To start off, whenever you start a new topic on a talk page, you want to put it under a level 2 heading, like this, == Topic Name ==. I have done it for you this time. As for the smiley, it is just an image, to use images you do, [[Image:image name.xxx(whatever extention the image uses)]]. But sometimes, you may want to make images smaller or larger, to do that you add <nowiki>|(whatever size)px]] to the end of the image. The syntax for the smiley image I used was [[Image:Face-grin.svg|25px]]. As for the reverting question. Are you speaking of this? Mww113 (talk) 11:29, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Okay, good to know it's a Special Thing and not just me being blind! :P YES I remembered to sign my comment first time! Helenginn (talk) 13:29, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

About redirecting certain titles to Tiger Woods' article. I don't think they were jokes, they're both versions of his real name, with the latter being a merge of his real name and his golfing-name. The ''Gorgeous Girl''!!! (talk) 17:07, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Stokes, North Carolina Article

Yes I notice you referred to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_County%2C_North_Carolina in your review. I have to think the confusion comes in because I should have made the title listing Stokes, Pitt County, North Carolina. I changed that for you. Here is Pitt County Wiki article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitt_County%2C_North_Carolina As you can see the Stokes in my article is different from Stokes County. Also adding a link to Pitt County article in the page for you. Hope this can help clarify some of the confusion. We are still in the process of getting a home domain page up for us on the web and really would like to be included in wiki. This is just the start of the wiki page. We are have tons of factually documents that we hope to upload and include in the article that shows our town's rich and diverse history. Was trying to make it as simple as possible to start with. Hoping that would help move things along faster. If you like you can clean it up some in format. I am not really a web designer. We are still trying to source someone out for that job. I can draw a story board to depict what we want the article to look like when finish but don't have the computer skills to implement it myself. That the man reason the town's website is still not up yet. We have to wait till fall for we can vote on who will get that job and we just trying to gt something going in the mean time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.55.88.43 (talk) 09:52, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm in the middle of translating this article, and it does take time. I am not too pleased about being templated. --Rifleman 82 (talk) 12:13, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

ACC tool

Yes, I am confirming that I made the request. Artichoker[talk] 00:57, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Can I ask what this is about Mww113? You are not an administrator of that tool, and your "done" template [1] didn't seem to reflect any actual action. Can you clarify for me what you mean here? Pedro :  Chat  20:43, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

He is an administrator on the server [2]. And he did confirm me [3]. Although you probably can't see the links unless you have an account. Artichoker[talk] 20:46, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Sorry about that, I'm still learning the ropes of the complicated tool. Won't happen again. Artichoker[talk] 13:37, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

another request

Hi, pursuant to Wikipedia:RFCU#User:220.255.7.246 I'd like to request full temporary access. Once I determine what this tool actually does, I will decide if I want to ask that it be made permanent. Thanks. ++Lar: t/c 17:53, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

User:Husain hot

I declined to block this username. I think it could in theory, maybe, offend someone who was particularly sensitive, but that's much less than the burden at WP:U, which deems offensive usernames inappropriate if they "make harmonious editing difficult or impossible." (I mean, Saddam Hussein is dead now, and considering him "hot" isn't that offensive.) I take it that you created this username on request for someone... next time if you're concerned, it's probably better to ask about the username before creating it. :) Or just ask the user to pick another username if you're uncomfortable with it.

MedCab

When I protected it there was a vandal who was going around and using a pagemove feature which moved all the subpages of a page. WP:MEDCAB has a lot of subpages and the vandal could have caused huge damage if they knew this, so I move protected it to stop them trying. If you're that bothered I'll unprotect it (the "move subpages" feature has since been disabled). Hut 8.5 20:59, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

but as I say, I'm not someone with a lot of authority. See Wikipedia:IRC_channels... I would try reaching out to JamesF or Sean Whitton Sorry if that's not more helpful. ++Lar: t/c 21:32, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

I'll look, be about to click, the name comes up, and I'm like,

Fastcgi Protocol Error

Hi. Just now, whenever I try to go to the account creation interface, the page does not load and I instead immediately get a Fastcgi Protocol Error. Do you know what the problem is, and is everyone else experiencing it too? Thanks. Artichoker[talk] 19:49, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Never mind, it seems to be fixed now. Artichoker[talk] 20:08, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Looking for a mentor

Hey I am looking for someone to help me get better with wiki's faster than I could on my own, so I am hoping you could help. Huck1eberrie (talk) 15:44, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Sweet, So I have a part time job that is going to involve me helping a small business develop an internal wiki. So I figure the best place to start is to become proficient at wikipedia. Huck1eberrie (talk) 12:55, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Mww113. You have new messages at Huck1eberrie's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Hey, I hope you can help; so for this wiki which I am working on, I have a problem with the navigation side bar. I have a problem accessing it since it is locked (i assume that i have to get the admin to change my status, so that is something on my end which i am working out), but i also cannot even see the sidebar appear, the wiki will just have articles and no naviagtion, search bar, interaction, or toolbox on the side. This makes navigation almost impossible and i cannot figure out why it is not showing up. On the page i cannot edit i can see:

• navigation
  • mainpage|mainpage
  • portal-url|portal
  • currentevents-url|currentevents
  • recentchanges-url|recentchanges
  • randompage-url|randompage
  • helppage|help
  • sitesupport-url|sitesupport

So i know there is something that should be there, it is just not showing up. Huck1eberrie (talk) 14:46, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
