Illa J and Frank Nitt edit

How are you doing? In all honesty, I debated with myself on giving the Yancey Boys Group a seperate article, but there really isn't enough history to make one. Just like the case is with Jaylib. Even Nitt himself can't likely get an article, because not much Is known about him on the internet. But time always tell, right? (LonerXL (talk) 17:07, 9 November 2013 (UTC))Reply

Black Lip Pastor edit

In an update, Ab-Soul reiterated on Twitter that, that is not the title of the album. However, no need to mess with the Black Lip Pastor redirect, as that is still something of a nickname for him. Also, am I the only one that finds it funny that Isaiah Rashad's Cilvia Demo, peaked higher on the Billboard 200 than any TDE album besides GKMC. STATic message me! 20:57, 5 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your talk page design edit

@?uest: Hi! I have been on Wikipedia for a relatively short space of time, but have seen how a lot of things work on here and know colleagues / friends and acquaintances that have an interest in Wikipedia, which is what spun my own personal interest in the encyclopedia. Anyway to cut a long story short, I couldn't help but notice what a nice talk page layout that is and was wondering whether you may be able to assist moi with creating a similar talk page layout with the BIG icons (is there any possibility of explaining how one would go about making a talk page icon template with plenty of space for userboxes)? --Kő Cloch (talk) 13:02, 14 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Your signature edit

Please be aware that your signature is causing misnested tag and missing end tag lint errors. Also, your signature is 490 characters long, contrary to WP:SIGLEN, which says that signature strings should not exceed 255 characters. Also, your signature uses markup to increase font size, contrary to WP:SIGAPP.

You are encouraged to change

Which changes the colors very slightly using 3-digit instead of 6-digit colors and eliminates the small size of the dot, but it's still too long at 351 characters, so try

Which eliminates the text shadow, but it's still too long at 295 characters; we are still 40 characters over the limit.

I give up. You are trying to do too many things. Please adopt a signature that can be expressed in 255 characters. I've taken it as far as I can. —Anomalocaris (talk) 05:15, 14 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
