Re: Name Editing

In the top right of your screen, go to "My Preferences" and find the text box next to "Signature". In that, you can type whatever you want using Wikimarkup and/or HTML. (For example, I have [[User:Thingg|<span style="color:#3300ff;">Thingg</span>]][[User talk:Thingg|<sup style="color:#33ff00;">⊕</sup>]][[Special:Contributions/Thingg|<sup style="color:#ff0033;">⊗</sup>]] entered for my signature.) Also, there is a limit on how many characters are allowed for your sig, but I'm not sure exactly how many. After you write what you want for your signature, check the checkbox labeled "Raw signature" and click on "Save" at the bottom of the page. Hope that answers your question. Regards.

Vandalizing

Are you a bot? It was not vandalizing. Check my edits. About 10000, and this is the first page blank. Those categories are for articles, not users. The userpage is copied & pasted from an article which had an obvious advertising feeling to it. -- Frap (talk) 15:06, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Thank you

...for reverting the vandalism on my talkpage. Much appreciated. I'm Josh, nice to meet you. ~Beano~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 06:56, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

• Hah, that's my name too. Yeah, I've just been bored and decided to do some reverts. I warned him for it too; if he does it again ARV his ass. Quadrius^Contribs 06:57, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

That's two I owe you, and he just did it again. This guy just won't give up :-). ~Beano~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 07:04, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

I just ARV'd him, hopefully he'll get a block soon. Quadrius^Contribs 07:05, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. It's hard to deal with vandalism on your own article. Reverting, warning, and ARV'ing is hard because it changes the perspective to conflict of interest. I have your back; thanks for having mine. ~Beano~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 07:08, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

It's not really COI if it's obvious vandalism or attacking. Anyway, I've got my eye on him. He just popped your page again, another user got it. We watch each other's back around here. Quadrius^Contribs 07:09, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Awesome. Thanks again. About the COI, I guess you're right. The COI generally point towards other things, but it can still make even small warnings or AIV's seem retaliatory. The world these days.... oh well. We'll definitely keep in touch. Nice to meet you, Josh. ~Beano~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 07:17, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Wiki-meetup Nashville on Labor Day weekend!

Wiki-meetup Nashville will be September 5–6 (Labor Day weekend) 2009. No conference rooms or libraries. Food, beer and conversation, maybe even a show. So come either day or both! --EdwardsBot (talk) 00:10, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

License tagging for File:MTAC.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:MTAC.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 07:05, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
