re: Welcome Template colours

I am not actually worried about the edit link colours, I actually don't want them there (but they can't be rid of). Are the headings hard to read? The design is actually copied from Kukini's page. MyNam e IsNotBob 11:33, 2 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I dont really like the colours in the template, They don't really appeal to me. But I am not one to comment on actual colours more than telling people when things are invisible to me because of contrast issues. Ans e ll 11:46, 2 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

palm island

I have updated Palm ISland and Hull River. Let me know what you think.

Do you know anyone studying Aboriginal history that could add more to any of the Aboriginal mission pages??—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Phenss (talk • contribs) .

I do not know of any on wikipedia. I could attempt to contact a few people that I have known in the past who are aboriginal or who have lectured in aboriginal issues. It is important that people who are knowledgeable in the areas expand on the mission pages that you started recently. I can help with wikifying them and cleaning them up. I wikifies the Mona Mona mission page just before. It looked like a very reasonable stub! Ans e ll 08:17, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

AfD - Irfan Yusuf

Hi. I just thought I'd let you know, I've commented on your vote on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Irfan_Yusuf. --Tango 17:32, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Republican sex scandals AfD

It might be more confusing now if I move my revised recommendation, since I'd have to move your comment too. How about if I add a comment to my first post to see below?

I do read "Wikipedia is neither a mirror nor a repository of links, images, or media files" as a prohibition against mirroring pages, but I'll ask on the talp page for NOT for clarification. Шизомби 00:42, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Hi. Concerning my edits on the wikipedia talk, there seems to be a misunderstanding. I did not rearrange on purpose; I messed up while changing the header of the comment below it, dragging my mouse. Please don't make false allegations. -Zero^Talk 08:45, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, it just looked really suspicious redirecting schizombie to zombie... Ans e ll 10:02, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I dragged some stuff by mistake and I was not quite positive what I moved so I just re-added some bracketts to make a link, and...it messed up; I wasn't really paying attention. Thanks for fixing my error. -Zero^Talk 15:17, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean...

...Transwiki lyrics? Do you mean I should write down both Original lyrics(in Serbian) and translation in English? What Transwiki means?Dzoni 13:36, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, basically I mean put the English lyrics on Wikisource and possibly the Serbian version on the Serbian Wikisource. Will comment later on the AfD properly. Ans e ll 21:19, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

cocacolonization (from wikipedia:deletion_review of ghey)

I am sorry for the people who can not make up -isation words for themselves. It is already on wiktionary, and i believe it unencyclopedic. I alread had WP:NOR discussion on parental advisory (and i made the point because it was not OR, and indeed this term exists nowadays). By the way 724,000 hits (google) are not exactly WP:POINT. Akidd dublin•tl•ctr-l 14:31, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Making a POINT out of other words fits the definition. You seem to have nominated Cocolonization because Ghey was deleted and you were trying to make the point very visibly using other definitions that are possibly borderline. Ans e ll 21:21, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, ghey was deleted 2 years ago, and i do not exactly remember if i was involved back then. I do not spin webs/plots over two years. The article coca-coloniosation speaks for itself (wrong grammar, really hard to understand). For this reason, and because it is not much used nowadays, and it is easy to make it up, just add -isation, i suggested it for Afd. I do not understand what you mean with borderline. I do not nominate articles for Afd because of what happened to other articles. The Wiktionary entry is remarkable: internal links to 10 spelling variations. I do not believe it gets through. By the way a political party can perform coca-colonisations, they can make a program of coca-colonisations. If it is in a dictionary (noun), this is legal language usage. Have you reviewed the wiktionary entry?

"You seem to have nominated Cocolonization because Ghey was deleted". It is not so.

My point was the search hits: 470 for coca-colononisation, and 724,000 for ghey, to compare their importance/interest to the public. I have read WP:POINT (again). I do not see myself doing some of these things. Akidd dublin•tl•ctr-l 09:08, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #3

Administrator Coaching
The Administrator Coaching program is a program aimed at preparing Wikipedians for Adminship or helping them understand the intricacies of Wikipedia better. Recently, changes have been made to the requirements of coachees. Please review them before requesting this service. This would be something like the Welcoming Committee, but for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. Some might like suggestions about how to learn vandal patrol, or mentoring on taking an article to featured status, or guidance with a proposal they plan to make at the Village Pump, for example. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.
Stressbusters
The Stressbusters are a subset of Esperanza aiming to investigate the causes of stress. New eyes on the situation are always welcome!

Shared IP

Hi,

I wanted to know how do you arrive at the conclusion that an IP is shared; say for example 128.83.101.166? -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 10:01, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
