Who exactly is the warning from? Last time I checked, Xyrael originally posted it, not you. Not to sound rude or anything, but unless you asked or told them to post a warning on my talk page, I'd rather you didn't get involved, otherwise you're going to confuse me. -- JD ^talk _email 17:15, 1 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Sorry to confuse, my aim was to act as a neutral third party in the debate, and to (hopefully and with good faith) illustrate that more than one person is against you. Hope that cleared things up, and thanks for querying civily. -- Xyra e l ^T 17:18, 1 June 2006 (UTC) reply

I already know more than one person is "against me", but you don't need to make a point of it. Nothing I said was meant to be uncivil, but if that's the way it's all being received why doesn't the person on the receiving end actually try to sort it all out, rather than continually post warnings on my page? -- JD ^talk _email 17:23, 1 June 2006 (UTC) reply

(complete revert to 9cds - who broke the page?)

I think that might have been me! Seems to be my edit was the one that done it. I was trying to add housemate images, but for ages I was getting edit conflicts. Is it worth trying again? Celardore 16:58, 2 June 2006 (UTC) reply

how did you manage to evict sezer that quickly on all 3 pages????? Ellisjm 20:28 UTC 2 June 06

Yeah I did it on the table and the chronology page admittedly I got the column width a bit wrong on the table. And when I was editing the nomination twist bit on the table I too had the page preprepared which is why the table looked messed up afterwards as I had to revert all of the extra parts I had put on Sezer's row. -- JAB ^[T] _[C] 20:32, 2 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Hi. I picked your name at random from the list of admins, and have come to ask you to please delete a page, so I may move another in its place. Here is what happened: the page SBC (1984-2005) should be replaced by the page SBC Communications, as there was never nother SBC (destroying the need to give the dates in the title.) So, because both articles are identical, and I want credit for creating the original article ( SBC (1984-2005)), could you please delete the page SBC Communications so I can move ( SBC (1984-2005)) into its place? Thanks a lot. Please leave any questions you may have about this on my talk page. aido2002 20:10, 5 June 2006 (UTC) reply

I know you can't remove votes. But tell me this: has anyone ever called it spam to put something likt that on a talk page? I've seen it done, and nobody was angry. If a vote says something that is liebel, it should be removed. aido2002 20:48, 5 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Hey FireFox. I just came in to ask you if you could possibly just choose one signature? Because if this:

{{#switch:{{CURRENTDAYNAME}}
 | Monday=— '''''[[User:FireFox|<span style="color:#3971DE">Fire</span>]][[User talk:FireFox|<span style="color:#3971DE">Fox</span>]]''''' • 17:58, 08 June '06

Is going to pop-up everytime you leave a message on a users' page, that wouldn't be good. I've seen people, good users too, blocked for signatures shorter than this. Could you please consider it? I don't want to see you blocked. -- from The King of Kings 04:44, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Well, now that I see it, it looks like you were testing you're signature. Please tell me that was a test? -- from The King of Kings 04:54, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Thank goodness it was a test. ;) Although, it would have been really cool to have an alternating signature by the day, it really was ingenious. If I alternated my signature everyday, I wouldn't only change the color, I would change the name, one day "The King of Kings", the next ..who knows? ;-) -- from The King of Kings 18:28, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Good luck with exams. ;-) Mind telling me in what? -- from The King of Kings 18:33, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Not to be nosey, but how much longer until your summer break? -- from The King of Kings 18:37, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Cool more time to spend with Wikipedia past exams, eh? ;-) Darn, a month of worrying for exams, you got more guts than me. ;-) What a coincidence, I got out in mid-May too. But my school had to be a dick and made us take exams during our final days. Our technical last day was May 12, and we finished exams on May 19. It sucked studying for all those exams at one time :( But the good thing is I got an A on the one of them (I'm a B-C student so for me that was good). ;) All the best with your exams. Oh and thanks. -- from The King of Kings 18:52, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Wow, what just happened, you signed but nothing showed up? Looks like your work has just begun :( -- from The King of Kings 19:31, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Not to add insult to injury, but the dot (•) doesn't pick up well on some computers. One time I added the dot and it looked like an HTML code or something. But your signature is special believe me. ;-) -- from The King of Kings 19:40, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Thats almost perfect. :P Could I make the suggestion of making it into one big userspace template and just using the template to sign with? -- from The King of Kings 19:54, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

I don't really know how to explain it, but maybe I'll give it a go. ;-) Ya know how you susbt all the templates and it turns out to be this one massive block of text? Well, maybe instead of making a sig, make a userspace template sig (I think thats what you're doing), but when that is finished, make another userspace template to place the signature in to condence the sixe of the sig on talk pages. Did any of that make sense? -- from The King of Kings 20:02, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Mind if I try to test out a few things in my userspace and see what the result is when I do it? -- from The King of Kings 20:22, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Sorry for the semi-late reply. :( I'll get on it. In a little while I'll tell you what I came up with. ;-) -- from The King of Kings 20:30, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

I've got it!!

Ok try this:

In your preferences type:

{{Subst:User:FireFox/Sig2}} {{subst:CURRENTTIME}} {{subst:CURRENTDAY2}} {{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}} '06

Make sure Raw signature box is checked

I believe it not being checked was one of the problems you had. The FireFox/Sig2 has the template FireFox/Sig in it so when it subst's, it only leaves the second template which contains the sig. The problem I got first the template not substituting right and then the timestamp thing. The thing with the Current date and everything was confusing :-(

Another important thing is now you only have to type three ~~~ to make your sig and timestamp.

If you type in three tiles it should turn out like this:

1. REDIRECT User:FireFox 21:12 09 June '06

Make sure not to merge or delete User:FireFox/Sig2 or User:FireFox/Sig.' Hey, I even got the daily rotating sig in. ;-) The only potential problem I see arriving from this the template inside the template will never get substitiued, which would be a lot of links after a while, but I guess thats a problem for the future. ;-) Hope this helps -- from The King of Kings 21:12, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Hmm.. that is a problem isn't it. I'll try looking into what another editor did. -- from The King of Kings 21:36, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Well, whenever you get back ask me how I'm going along with it so I can update you. ;-) -- from The King of Kings 21:41, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

HAHAHA I GOT IT!!

I took me another hour, but I got the exact way Haza has his signature. I had to restart your other sig subpages though. Now it substitutes it and everything is great! (Although, I still like my original idea with the template inside a template :()

Copy and paste the following, lengthy code to the nickname box on My preferences:

{{subst:#switch:{{SUBST:CURRENTDAYNAME}}  | Monday=— {{subst:User:FireFox/Sig2}}  | Tuesday=— {{subst:User:FireFox/Sig3}}  | Wednesday=— {{subst:User:FireFox/Sig4}}  | Thursday=— {{subst:User:FireFox/Sig5}}  | Friday=— {{subst:User:FireFox/Sig6}}  | Saturday=— {{subst:User:FireFox/Sig7}}  | Sunday=— {{subst:User:FireFox/Sig8}} }} {{subst:CURRENTTIME}} {{subst:CURRENTDAY2}} {{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}} '06 

Sorry for making your talk page long width-wise. ;-) But, this is neat. I finally was able to do this kind thing (assistance to an user, not only a user but admin), that was actually of use. ;-)

You basically don't need User:FireFox/Sig anymore because all you need is the code in your signature box and the other subpages and you'll be fine.

If you type three ~~~ it should turn out like this now:

— Fire Fox 22:52 09 June '06

Copy and paste the code into the box and tell my how it is. Hopefully this shall be the end of your signature search. ;-) -- from The King of Kings 22:54, 9 June 2006 (UTC) reply

No problem. :P -- from The King of Kings 18:20, 10 June 2006 (UTC) reply

Who banned Scroogle, Google Watch, Wikipedia Watch, etc... outside URL links? What happens to them? Google to Yahoo to Jayde Search are okayed links, but Scroogle is spam? Criticism of this is spam?

Cults have been described as groups where criticism of the Leaders (or Administrators in this case) or Group can not be criticized. That seems to exist here, especially with the smap policy.

I can't read Thai, but you might consider restoring the article and asking someone who reads Thai to translate it.

I didn't assume you were going to, and I didn't assume you did. I'm assuming there isn't a good reason for his not replying to my original message, and I couldn't care less, as long as I don't have to reply to any of his in future. -- JD ^talk _email 16:46, 18 June 2006 (UTC) reply

As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.
