Hi, could you maybe expand a bit on why you believe this article should be kept (when I list it for deletion)? The reason why I'm not putting it on AfD yet is because I want several people to give good reasons to keep/delete certain articles, instead just voting Keep/Delete. Cheers, — Ruud 23:08, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
It's not too late to add a switch in there to change color schemes, what exactly did you have in mind? -- Cyde Weys 05:38, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
Ya eejit! I fell for it, thought maybe you'd corrected my formatting of the bullet points next to the image at the top of my user page but no... :-) Now I mention it, could you fix it? Lol, good job, I had a laugh at that and glad to see you didn't get blocked. (!) -- kingboyk 11:49, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for supporting my RfA. I’m proud to inform you that it passed 75 support to 1 oppose to 2 neutral. I promise to make some great edits in the future (with edit summaries!) and use these powers to do all that I can to help. After all, that’s what I’m here for!

Could you leave your yay/nay/comments at the above URL as soon as possible please Lar? We've had a few solo songs destubbed so I'd like to be clear what our policy is before I go changing the template. -- kingboyk 21:59, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
Hey mate. No - this isn't a comment about a Pink Floyd song.. but I was wondering if I was going a bit crazy, or has the time stamps in Wiki not taken account of the change yet..? -- Mal 01:15, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Hello Lar, how are you? Thanks for your support in my RFA. The final vote count was (88/3/1), so I am now an administrator. Thank you for your kind comments, I am very humbled by your vote of support. Please let me know if at any stage you require assistance, or if you have comments on how I am doing as an administrator. Once again thank you and with kind regards Gryffindor 18:34, 2 April 2006 (UTC) |

Hello Larry, did you finally manage to use the Lupin's navigation tool on BrickWiki ? I've tried to use what you put in you monobook.js there on my wikia page but it does'nt work... Would you have an idea ? Thanks ! -- Henrique Diaz 11:10, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi Lar. Thank you for your support vote on my RFA. The final result was a successful request based on 111 support and 1 oppose. -- CBDunkerson 17:49, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
...that the Beatles project had another appearance on DYK, followed in the very next template by The KLF's Justified and Ancient? I'm more excited by the latter, as it's harder to get a niche band onto the front page I would have thought :-) But, of course, it would have to be one of the KLF articles I didn't write! :P -- kingboyk 18:14, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Hello Lar/Archive 4: Thank you for supporting me in my RfA, which passed with a final tally of 77/3/0. I hope I can perform at the standards expected for administrators. If I make any mistakes, or you need anything, please let me know. Prodego talk 01:18, 4 April 2006 (UTC) |
It's high time you were nominated for adminship. You need to come up with some real good excuses real fast why I shouldn't nominate you if you want to get out of it this time. I would, however, prefer that you just say you'll accept. I have oodles of confidence in your abilities, if you need any convincing. :-) Dmcdevit· t 02:16, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Yes that is EXCATLY what I mean, thank you. Wait, if you think that I want the Extra Space deleted, say in all the current articles, I believe that might be a too big of a task to do, but if the program could be programed so that it NO LONGER, I stress NO LONGER CREATES, or INCULDES white space, 'that's better'.
Please leave one if you'd like more clarification on this issue. You could also contact me iooiioioo@hotmail.com [since they haven't instituted the option to delete your account, made their own licence, or the GNUL hasn't changed yet, I haven't signed up].

Wow! A mile marker - that is probably one of the most meaningful edits I've ever received on my talk page. Thank you very much - it really means a lot to me. I was out for the last few days, but I do hope something good comes out of it. See you around the Wiki! -- HappyCamper 22:31, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
<--As far as on-wiki things go, continued work on The KLF (in a more awesome shape now than I'd ever dared imagine, with all important links blue), and - as you'll no doubt see at some point - lots of pontificating at the Beatles WikiProject (including a plan for tackling The Beatles vs History of the Beatles). Classified a few more articles too. -- kingboyk 23:51, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi Lar. I'm planning an AWB run shortly to put the relevant Beatles' singles into a new Category:Parlophone singles. I'm thinking I may as well fix occurences of "the Beatles" at the same time. However, I'm really not convinced there are no exceptions to the rule. Comments? -- kingboyk 00:06, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Sorry about that. On a quick fly-by I only saw the deletion, and didn't realise it was a mucked up addition. Noisy | Talk 17:03, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for the query. The hammermill is fine as it is. Its a completely different machine to the one I was describing to User:Noisy, and there is no need to merge anything, since it will cause confusion. There is a fine a disambiguation page for the word Hammer on which few manufacturing meanings are listed. In manufacturing you've got hammermill, tilt hammer, trip hammer, steam hammer, air hammer, etc, etc, and these might be added. Run the idea past Noisy and see what he thinks. Get back to me if you start it and I will see what I can add. Kind regards. Apwoolrich 19:15, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
Stamp mills were use in early paper making for preparing the paper-stuff, before the invention of the Hollander. They were used in mining for breaking ore, in oil-seed processing for pressing the oil from the milled seeds. They comprised a set heavy wooden beams with a metal facing on the bottom, loosely held vertically in a frame in which the beams could slide up and down. They were lifted by cams on a horizontal rotating shaft. As the cam left the beam it fell onto the material being processed, then picked up again at the next pass of the cam. They were in use from the Renaissance onwards, but were superceded in the 2nd half of the C19 by more efficient methods of processing. Hope this helps. Apwoolrich 19:36, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
Hey, they're not jokes, and nope, I'm not going for revenge, I just figured its easier to give one question set all at once and not scare the candidate with 50 million little questions coming up :) -- Tawker 23:08, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
...I daresay this isn't all of them, I probably have a few false positives, and a few will be redirects, but by surfing most of the Beatles category tree with AWB I have a list of 569 unique articles. Swoon. (List can be made available either as a text file or a wiki article should you need it). -- kingboyk 01:24, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

You are receiving this message because you are on the Ref converter spamlist
I'm working on a new beta version of Ref converter to properly handle {{ ref label}} and multiple refs to the same note. It is located here. I'd appreciate any feedback or bug notes on this new version. So far it tentatively handles ref labels and I will be adding multiple ref support soon. Once I think it's good enough it's going to overwrite wikirefs.pl and become the main version. -- Cyde Weys 03:42, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Greetings again -- I'm taking this to your talk instead of the Redridge Steel Dam talk for now. First, always glad to meet a fellow Tech alum -- don't suppose you've seen the campus in the last few years? As a CS major, you'd be interested in the massive new CS building, and the pending total gutting of Fisher. Incidentally, I'm a BMath 2004, and probably returning for some grad work in the near future.
On Redridge: Clarence Monette has written literally hundreds of local history booklets which are published and available all over the Keweenaw. I own one on Redridge and the dam, but it's packed away (I'm moving in a few weeks). Once I find it again, I can probably provide a LOT more factual data and history. -- dcclark ( talk) 17:27, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Lar,
Thank you very much for your advice to use "Wiki on a stick". I have now sucessfully created a wiki on a 64 meg USB drive. I wonder if you would be kind enough to continue anwering questions for me?
