No Problem

This is awarded to Celestianpower for letting me steal his RFA criteria page. :) Thanks again! Acetic Acid 21:30, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

You're welcome! Thanks for the Barnstar. This is for you. :)

Thank you very much

HappyCamper's RFA - Thanks for your support! :-)

edit

Hi Celestianpower! Thanks for supporting me during my recent RFA. I am now an administrator, and I was especially happy to receive support from a Wikipedian whom I hadn't had a chance to get to know better yet. Have we met somewhere on Wikipedia before? Perhaps on the Reference Desk?

I hope we can collaborate on a project, whether it be editing articles or performing administrative tasks. If you ever need a hand, feel free to leave me a message! Thanks again for your show of support and sincerity. Happy editing! --HappyCamper 15:15, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Welcoming Committee?

edit

Are you part of a Welcoming Committee? That's very nice of you. I have been active at wikibooks, and only created a login here so I could leave a signed message on someone else's talk page.

As you can see from my user page, I am really home at wikibooks. I can hardly wait until we get a single sign on!

Do you think the redirect on my user page is a good idea? Do you think it would be a good idea to put the redirect on my talk page, too, so friendly people like yourself will know where to find me when they want to say hello?

Thanks for your advice. I may update all the user/talk pages on all my wiki accounts (if I can remember which wikis I have registered to) --SV Resolution 15:52, 24 August 2005 (UTC)


Thanks for your comments. So you think "please visit me at [...] would be better than what I now have at User:SV Resolution?

Adminship

edit

Courtesy note to let you know that you've been nominated for adminship. --Baryonic Being 16:28, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Continuing Fuchsia City discussion

edit

I replied to your comment on my talk page. I welcome a reply, but be warned that I'm going to be out of the country for a few weeks on personal business, so it may be quite a while before I can respond further.

Then again, you never know. I may be on Wikipedia in the interim. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 16:29, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your support

edit

Thanks a lot for your support and kind words at my request for adminship. I reread my answers to the guideline questions many times as a result, feeling very pleased about myself. ;) Coffee 05:13, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

How to use images from commons ?

edit

I added 3 images to inflection point, but afterwards realized I should have put them in Wiki commons. I loaded the 3 images there, under the same name, but I can't get rid of the images I uploaded to Wikipedia. How do I get rid of those and redirect the inflection point article to find the illustrations under the same name in Wiki commons ? StuRat 08:58, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Why would you want to delete them? I'm not very good with images, sorry, but from what I can gather, just link them exactly the same as you would had they been at commons...
If not, try asking a question at the Village Pump. Sorry I can't help more but that's the best I can do. :( By the way, have you thought about voting at my RfA? LOL! --Celestianpower hab | myRFA 09:18, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Gender

edit

I'm so sorry. XD I knew you were a male, too. I don't know why I did that. Good luck with the rest of your nomination, my boy! Acetic Acid 15:49, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for supporting my RfA, and also thank you for complimenting my answers. If you ever have any complaints/issues/whatever with my edits, please drop me a line. --Scimitar parley 18:48, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks

edit

Thanks for the Barnstar.

(By the way, it didn't affect my supporting your RFA!) Sonic Mew | talk to me 16:04, August 28, 2005 (UTC)

Yu realise I was joking? I supported you because I recognised your good work. Sonic Mew | talk to me 12:11, August 30, 2005 (UTC)

Lists of categories and templates

edit

Where can I find a list of templates and categories for use on Wikipedia. I am new to editing pages, etc. on wikipedia (i have been however a long time user of wikipedia for school assignments, etc.).

thanks,

Joshua (by email)

Please lodge messages at my talk page rather than sending email because its more convenient for me and it'll be answered quicker.
Try Special:Categories for categories and Wikipedia:Navigational templates or Wikipedia:Templates for templates. Hope that helps! --Celestianpower hab | myRFA 21:22, 30 August 2005 (UTC)


Jynx (Pokemon)

edit

What I saw was purple, but anyway, a lot of people think that Jynx is ugly so that's why I suggested to make that picture into a link. So people can choose whether to see it or not. jynx 07:15, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

But we have plenty of pictures of slugs on the Slug article and they're ugly... --Celestianpower hab | myRFA 09:14, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Is it really impossible to change it into a link though? Pokemon fans are mainly kids. I don't see slugs have a lot of fans. Biologists might look at them for researches. jynx 03:47, 1 September 2005 (UTC)


  • IS IT SO DIFFICULT TO CHANGE THAT PIC INTO A LINK? WHAT IS THE MATTER IF I DO IT? jynx 13:59, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

Vacation

edit

Have a good time in Dartmouth! :D Acetic'Acid 11:10, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

Re: category:Firefox users

edit

I never really thought of it really. I have done now, thanks for the idea! File:Smily.jpg FireFox 14:04, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your support!

Dear Celestianpower, thanks for your vote of confidance at my RfA. I'll try hard to make the soggy mop proud! — Asbestos | Talk (RFC) 22:37, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

Bureaucratship

edit

Hi, Celestianpower. Thank you so much for your support and kind words on my bureaucratship nomination. Unfortunately, it didn't pass, but I intend to run again soon. If you'd like to be informed next time around, please let me know on my talk page. Thanks again! Andre (talk) 05:25, September 4, 2005 (UTC)

Why do you think that the V.F.D. article needs cleanup and what do you think needs doing specifically? --Celestianpower hab | myRFA 10:10, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

See the "Cleanup request" section on Talk:V.F.D.. -- Beland 22:43, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

Just to let you know, an article you've voted for, has became this week's UKCOTW: Demographics of the United Kingdom. Come and help out! :D -- Joolz 14:17, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

Hi celestian from 'thegirlinwhite'! ;o)

edit

hi celestian!

it's a real honor to be doing this. it's one of my discoveries of the year.

btw: you should be saying 'vandals welcome' rather than 'vandal's welcome'?! surely more grammatical? ;o)

yours pedantically and GRATEFULLY,

x
