Huggle

edit

I want to upload Huggle but this isn't my own personal computer, its the family laptop and my dad would kill me if he found out downloaded something from the internet so thanks anyway.Gears Of War 13:29, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

You see this is what happened, our laptop caught a virus, a horrible one. So the only way to get rid of it was to delete everything on the laptop. If that didn't happen he would probrably let me, but he barely let me put iTunes back on the computer. But soon he's gonna by himself and my mom their own laptops so when that happens I'll download it(but god knows when that will happen).Gears Of War 13:34, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
All i have is Microsoft XP, will that work?Gears Of War 13:45, 26 May 2008 (UTC)


Your GA nomination of The Dundies

edit

The article The Dundies you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold.  It hasn't failed because it's basically a good article, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:The Dundies for things needed to be addressed. Ice Cold Beer (talk) 22:39, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

  1. Yes. However it may be hard. I am trying to get some comments on Wikipedia ready for a future show, so if you could send me a 10 second sound file (.ogg, .mp3 etc.), with your comment, i'll put it in the show.
  2. I am setting up a website, so people can listen in different formats.

Send the file to connorjturnbull yahoo.co.uk. Thanks. StewieGriffin! • Talk 14:54, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Firefox.PNG)

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:Firefox.PNG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 09:57, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

The Office WikiProject Newsletter
Issue V - June 2008
Around the watercooler
  • The Office (U.S. season 2) failed as a Featured List Candidate on May 2.
  • The Office (U.S. TV series) was delisted as a Featured Article on May 4. User:Daniel Case is currently in working to run the article through the entire gauntlet:Peer review, Good article nomination, and once again Featured Article Candidacy. Any help with the article through the next few months approaching the season 5 premiere would be greatly appreciated.
  • Dunder Mifflin was nominated for GA-status on May 8. It is currently on-hold after a review. Please visit the article and help improve it.
  • Survivor Man was nominated for GA-status on May 18, but has not yet been reviewed.
  • Please continue to keep a look-out for anyone who has substantial experience in editing articles pertaining to The Office. If they're not already in the project, informing them about it would be a great idea.
  • The WikiProject page itself is still in need of some help. If anyone could spruce it up, that would be a great help.
From the desk of Mastrchf91

Thanks for taking the time to read this fifth edition of the project's newsletter. As always, thanks to anyone who made any type of edit that improved an article relating to The Office. The size of the edit or edits does not matter, as any help ultimately helped out that article, and thus the entire Project. As always, don't forget to check into the project main page every once and a while, where I will periodically post announcements that are related to different events. Have a great month everybody, and happy editing!

If you would like to offer any suggestions on the creation, appearance, or any other matter of the newsletter, please message me at my talk page. I'm bound to miss something that's happened with the project, so if I miss anything, please inform me of the error.

StormBot (talk) 09:56, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello yet again. I regretfully inform you that the bot we were using to update the user status at Wikipedia:Highly Active Users, SoxBot V, was blocked for its constant updating. With this bot out of operation, a patch is in the works. Until that patch is reviewed and accepted by the developers, some options have been presented to use as workarounds: 1) Qui monobook (not available in Internet Explorer); 2) User:Hersfold/StatusTemplate; 3) Manually updating User:StatusBot/Status/USERNAME; or 4) Not worry about it and wait for the patch to go through, which hopefully won't take long. If you have another method, you can use that, too. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Useight (talk) 17:58, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Back to the drawing board

edit

It appears the globe stand was from a copyrighted image.

This means we're back to square one.

We need to either find another globe stand, or come up with a new idea altogether for the "Wikipedia World Traveler" award.

I look forward to any ideas you might have.

RFCU archiving

edit

When you archive RFCU cases, you also have to add archive tags to the case page, {{subst:Rfcua}} to the top and {{subst:Rfcub}} to the bottom. If there are previous cases on the page, move the archive message up to enclose the new checks. Thanks. Thatcher 04:48, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

  • And cases should not be moved to "completed" or "Declined" until a checkuser comments on them [1]. Thatcher 05:02, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Talk page archiving

Hi, Red Thunder. I think your talk page is getting really long (with over 200 KB!!). Did you ever think of archiving all these posts? I figured I'd ask this because of how long this page is. Thanks! -- SchfiftyThree 19:47, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. I think you should archive. If you want any assistance, let me know. Enigma message 15:04, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Pennant.ogg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from or who created it. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
