Adoption?

Hello, I see you wish to be adopted... well, I would like to adopt you! Please let me know!

BG7 20:09, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Cool i've adopted you! If you need any help please ask me! I'm also working on some excersices - i'll let you know when they're done!

Thanks,

BG7 16:29, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Hey Wikieditor - the excercises are online! Have a look here and we'll work through them!

They're not compulsory, (even the required ones!) but they'll help you to get a better feel of Wikipedia. If you need help with something not covered in the lessons, please ask me! (Click on the 7 in my username!)

Good Article nominations

I noticed that you have nominated a couple of professional wrestling article for Good Article reviews lately. At Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling, we have a procedure we like to follow before nominating articles. We place them on a one-week waiting list and ask for other project members to look over the article. This helps to ensure that all of the articles we nominate are ready to be nominated and don't have any obvious problems with sourcing, prose, etc. If you would like to nominate an article, it would be great if you could give a week's notice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Professional wrestling and list it at Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling#Waiting list. Please also feel free to add yourself to our members list if you are interested in joining the WikiProject. Best wishes, GaryColemanFan (talk) 20:14, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

I would hold off in nominating Glen Jacobs for GA status. The article needs tons of work. Here are some things to fix:

• The lead needs to be expanded to about three full paragraphs summarizing his entire career. See Triple H or Amy Dumas for an example.
• It needs a thorough copy edit.
• There are several WP:MOS problems.
• Other media needs to be taken out of list form and turned into prose.
• There needs to be more about his life away from wrestling (like personal life).
• The article needs to be trimmed of week by week and non-notable feuds.

Please remedy these problems before nominating the article. If you need help, please post a message at WT:PW. Thanks. Nikki311 22:20, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Er?

Can you please explain this edit? It is my sandbox, you know :/ Steve Crossin (talk) (review) 20:55, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Can you please tell me who your adopter is? I'd like to discuss this, thanks. Steve Crossin (talk) (review) 20:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

RE: Val Venis

Yes, but he has had many ring names. Plus, you should discuss and reach a consensus before moving a page. –Cheers, LAX 19:31, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

No thanks; I am working on some other stuff right now. –Cheers, LAX 19:35, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Done. –Cheers, LAX 19:38, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

The rest are all too big!

Re:Userpage

Sure. Anything specific you would like? Also, you are not allowed to have a fake new message bar with the exact text as the real one. You will have to change that. Also, do you mind adding more text on the page. It will be more helpful--RyRy5 (talk ♠ copy-edit) 20:22, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Alright, I'll begin as soon as possible.--RyRy5 (talk ♠ copy-edit) 20:41, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a social network. Wikipedia is not a place to socialize or do things that are not directly related to improving the encyclopedia. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time. This message is not meant to discourage you from editing Wikipedia but rather to remind you that the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia. Thank you. You need to started editing in the mainspace. Until you become active there, I've asked RyRy5 to hold off on creating your userpage. King iMatthew 2008 23:04, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes, making two minor edits to Glen Jacobs is not enough mainspace. Looking at all of your contribs (about 150 total) there are 20 or less mainspace edits, so the warning was needed. King iMatthew 2008 23:12, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

I agree with iMatthew. If you do start contributing constructively to the mainspace (wikipedia articles), then ask me again to renovate your userpage. Once you ask me, I will check Special:Contributions/Wikieditor222 and see if you have been contributing more to the mainspace. If so, then I will be more than happy to renovate your userpage. Thank you. Regards, RyRy5 (talk ♠ copy-edit) 23:14, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

I've removed Glen Jacobs and World Wrestling Entertainment from the waiting list at WP:PW, as they are not ready for GA yet. If you'd like to nominate articles for GA, you should work on them first, and make sure they meet the GA criteria. Take a look at some of our good articles for examples of a GA.

re: sig

No i'm good thanks. I've already got one, and i've had one for a long time.

Thanks anyway!

BlueGoblin^7even 20:38, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, I really appreciate it. It's been awhile since I've gotten a barnstar. ;) –Cheers, LAX 23:47, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

No thanks; I am good for now. Thanks for the offer, though. –Cheers, LAX 23:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Nah, no thanks. I like my sig as it is. –Cheers, LAX 00:01, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

WikiDragon and WikiGnome topicons

The following comment was posted on your signatures page accidentally, then moved when it was discovered that page wasn't a guestbook:

I was here, accidentally. Just checking to see how popular the WikiGnome mushroom is turning out to be...wait-- your userpage has my WikiDragon topicon, whereas this one has my WikiGnome topicon? I'm lost. Oh, well. I'll sign your guestbook anyway! Bob the Wikipedian (talk) 18:47, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Enable

Why did you turn the User:SoxBot V/Run page to false? Were you testing, displeased with it, or were you just making a joke? Next time, please explain in the edit summary. Soxred 93 00:55, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Re:Sig

Hey, pretty cool! Anyway, I gotta take some time off of WP. I'm not retiring or anything. I'm just taking a break. Although, I doubt the people will allow meto have a "WikiBreak" since most of my edits are userspace edits. I've REALLY got to work on that.

Peace Out! :-) SAVIOR_SELF.777 01:46, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Re:Goodbye

I think it would be better for you to tell others about your retirement. Cheers. Regards, RyRy5 (talk) 00:39, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Enjoy the real world. Let us know what it's like if you ever drop in again. Bob the Wikipedian (talk) 14:20, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Why'd you retire? Notify me on YouTube. Good luck out there! See you on YouTube! SAVIOR_SELF.777 01:56, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

DAMN!

That was fast! SAVIOR_SELF.777 00:35, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Welcome back

I heard you retired. Allow me to introduce myself. Shapiros10 WuzHere  12:18, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

I do as well. No, I'm fine with my current one. And, just a friendly reminder, your signature violates WP:SIG. This would be acceptable WikiEditor222. That should work better, with less confusion. Shapiros10 WuzHere  12:23, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Ah. It doesn't violate it, but it is common practice to have the sig resemble the username, or have it somewhere in the signature. If you like the Sexy Sea Clownfish, this should work. >SexySeaClownfishaka Wikieditor222 Shapiros10 WuzHere  12:33, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to the Novels WikiProject

  While you are updating your userpage, don't forget our userbox {{Wikipedia:WikiProject Novels/Outreach/User WPNOVELS}}.
• The project has a monthly newsletter; it will normally be delivered as a link, but other methods are available.

There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:

• Starting some new articles? Our article structure guidelines / template outlines some things to include.
