Hi Michael, I made some significant changes to the section that you didn't like. I was wondering if you could take another look at it and let me know what you think. Could you respond on the articles talk page or on the FAC? Thanks Balloonman 05:27, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

In this portal peer review, you made some comments regarding changling the layout of the components to put the "Read more" "Suggest an article" and "More articles" links in-line at the bottom of the boxes. I'm not exactly a technical wiz, so if you could give some guidance on how to accomplish this, I'd be grateful. Also, I've tried to incorporate your other suggestions - let me know what you think. Carom 02:06, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
you have deleted an excellent article about the popular youtube series yu gi oh abridged that is recently in conflict with youtube. Your argument for taking it off is that it is not popluar enough. There are thousands of people that are subscribed to littlekuriboh (guy who makes the movies) on youtube, let alone the millions of people unsubscribed. There are much less popluar articles on wikipedia and it wouldnt be right to leave this deleted. We dont know your motives but you may be trying to protect youtube. We the viewers would like this article of yu gi oh abridged back. check out all the video responses and replies and rating to see if there are enough people! 1 2 3 see the vandilism page for the links

Hey Michael, I just noticed your comment on Glen's talk page explaining the situation with the duplicates of Riana's RfAs. Thanks for clarifying what had happened as it all seemed rather bizarre.

Hello, Michaelas10! Since it has been a month since you nominated the Philosophy portal for peer review, I hope you received good feedback on how the portal could be improved. If you would like, you could keep the portal listed at the portal peer review for more suggestions for improvement and ask the Wikipedians here for feedback. Also, if you think the portal is ready, you could nominate the portal for featured status. Either way, I hope you've received helpful reviews! Cheers, S .D. ¿п? § 01:20, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Hey, I wanted to ask you about your comment about a "DYK suggestions page" during the PoPR itself. But then I went on a wikibreak and I later forgot. I've never actually seen it implemented on a portal. What do you suggest we keep as the criteria for a DYK to be included in the portal? Same as that for the main page? Right now, all DYKs that make it to the front page are added.-- thunderboltz (Deepu) 12:44, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Inserting color is certainly not NPOV. Never in my wildest dream would I expect to hear someone say that using color inserts some sort of improper opinion. Intelligent use of color provides an additional way to convey information. That is why no one would use a computer with monochrome screen even for business applications. Color can and should be used as a clue to classfication. For an example please see {{Infobox Album}}. Thanks, Johntex\ talk 22:43, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

In March 2006, Comedy Central parent Viacom, which had pulled reruns of an episode featuring the Virgin Mary hemorrhaging blood, canceled the Scientology rerun allegedly as a favor to producers of Cruise vehicle Mission: Impossible III, also owned by Viacom. This infuriated Stone and Parker -- eventually, Viacom capitulated -- but they really lost it when Isaac Hayes, voice of the ribald school chef and a Scientologist, quit and issued a public statement calling them bigots. "There are reports that Isaac had a stroke and Scientology quit the show for him, and I believe it," says Stone. "It was a brutal, up-close, personal thing with Isaac.

You don't correct their spelling, that is what [[[sic]]] is for). 10th of March, "at the 2007 Game Developers Conference" is much better.

When you undo other administrators actions, whether they were in error or not, it's normally polite to leave a notice on their talk page.

Thank you for explaining Wikipedia's new policy on image licencing to me, I've been having every image I upload deleted and couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong.

Congrats on your RFA (nice comfortable majority; I missed it was going on). Well done on protecting global warming... I was just wondering whether to protect the article or block Blue Tie for a 5RR on it. Do you have a game plan, since it determines whether I do the block as well? In theory as blocking users is a defensive measure I don't need to block the user if the page is going to stay protected for a while. However if it was a "heat of the moment" thing and you are planning on unprotect in the cool of the morning I probably should do a block. -- BozMo talk 10:47, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey there. I'm pleased to let you know that, consensus being reached, you are now an administrator! You've volunteered to do housekeeping duties that normal users sadly cannot participate in. Sysops can't do a lot of stuff: They can't delete pages just like that (except patent nonsense like "aojt9085yu8;3ou"), and they can't protect pages in an edit war they are involved in. But they can delete random junk, ban anonymous vandals, delete pages listed on articles for deletion (provided there's a consensus) for more than one week, protect pages when asked to, and keep the few protected pages that exist on Wikipedia up to date.
Almost anything you can do can be undone, but please take a look at The Administrators' how-to guide and the Administrators' reading list before you get started (although you should have read that during your candidacy ;). Take a look before experimenting with your powers. Also, please add Administrators' noticeboard to your watchlist, as there are always discussions/requests for admins there. If you have any questions drop me a message at My talk page. Have fun! =Nichalp «Talk»==Nichalp «Talk»= 17:33, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't notice the fact the griefer was headless (surely there's a better image to illustrate that point though?). I hope the recent edit was acceptable- as I've tweaked the caption to illustrate both the weird gameplay and the SP character's portrayals in the game. The thing is, the Wikimedia board has recently passed a stricter resolution on the use of fair use images, ( http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Resolution:Licensing_policy) and one of the implications proposed in WT:FUis that episode articles might be restricted to at most one image per episode. So unless we show some restraint in the use of images for SP episode articles, they might all get deleted. Borisblue 22:06, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Hey, you said that the second image had already been deleted as being redundant to this image. In actuality, the second image was redundant to Image:Old Ireleth map (1850-1873).PNG. I uploaded the image as name it was saved as on my laptop (Map3, as it was the third stage, the first being the crop, the second being the removal of the watermark), then I realised, so I uploaded it again with the wrong date in the title, because I had misunderstood the website I was using as a source. Apologies for the confusion, I was somewhat tired at the time. So, could you reconsider not deleting this image? J Milburn 17:56, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
“ | Hi there. The problem was completely my fault- I kept on uploading the picture dispite the fact I wasn't ready. Too tired! Basically,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Map3.PNG and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Old_Ireleth_map_%281850-1873%29.PNG are the same image, but Map3 is orphaned (because it is redundant to the other) has the wrong date (because I misunderstood the website I was using) and has a poor title, which probably would constitute deletion on its own. In short, please delete Map3.PNG.
Thanks. J Milburn. |

Cut a sheet of plain red or pink paper into strips to go around the table. The wider the tabletop, the wider the strip should be. Glue it down about 4 inches at a time, applying the glue directly to the tabletop. Place the paper on the table keeping closely to the edge of the table. Apply more glue to the strips so that they will adhere well. Continue around the entire circumference of the table.
Use scissors to cut out the roses in the rose-printed paper. Cut along the edges of the roses so that the glued-over effect is not noticeable. Juxtapose the pieces of paper in order to cover the entire center of the tabletop.
Cut out squares of rose-patterned paper. The square side should correspond to the width of the strip. Prior to pasting them on, place them on the strip to get a better estimate of the space between each square and the number necessary.
Finishing touch: Apply two coats of varnish. Let dry.

I wonder if you could use some other South Park reference in your signature. While ironically amusing, it may give the wrong impression to editors who are not aware of where it comes from.

I'm not exactly a technical wiz, so if you could give some guidance on how to accomplish this, I'd be grateful. Also, I've tried to incorporate your other suggestions - let me know what you think. Carom 02:06, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
you have deleted an excellent article about the popular youtube series yu gi oh abridged that is recently in conflict with youtube. Your argument for taking it off is that it is not popluar enough. There are thousands of people that are subscribed to littlekuriboh (guy who makes the movies) on youtube, let alone the millions of people unsubscribed. There are much less popluar articles on wikipedia and it wouldnt be right to leave this deleted. We dont know your motives but you may be trying to protect youtube. We the viewers would like this article of yu gi oh abridged back. check out all the video responses and replies and rating to see if there are enough people! 1 2 3 see the vandilism page for the links

Hey Michael, I just noticed your comment on Glen's talk page explaining the situation with the duplicates of Riana's RfAs. Thanks for clarifying what had happened as it all seemed rather bizarre. Maybe if that happens again, just tag one of them for speedy? I notice above a nomination for your good self. I hope we see that go live soon. :) Cheers, Sarah 11:24, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
Hello, Michaelas10! Since it has been a month since you nominated the Philosophy portal for peer review, I hope you received good feedback on how the portal could be improved. If you would like, you could keep the portal listed at the portal peer review for more suggestions for improvement and ask the Wikipedians here for feedback. Also, if you think the portal is ready, you could nominate the portal for featured status. Either way, I hope you've received helpful reviews! Cheers, S .D. ¿п? § 01:20, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Hey, I wanted to ask you about your comment about a "DYK suggestions page" during the PoPR itself. But then I went on a wikibreak and I later forgot. I've never actually seen it implemented on a portal. What do you suggest we keep as the criteria for a DYK to be included in the portal? Same as that for the main page? Right now, all DYKs that make it to the front page are added.-- thunderboltz (Deepu) 12:44, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Inserting color is certainly not NPOV. Never in my wildest dream would I expect to hear someone say that using color inserts some sort of improper opinion. Intelligent use of color provides an additional way to convey information. That is why no one would use a computer with monochrome screen even for business applications.

In March 2006, Comedy Central parent Viacom, which had pulled reruns of an episode featuring the Virgin Mary hemorrhaging blood, canceled the Scientology rerun allegedly as a favor to producers of Cruise vehicle Mission: Impossible III, also owned by Viacom. This infuriated Stone and Parker -- eventually, Viacom capitulated -- but they really lost it when Isaac Hayes, voice of the ribald school chef and a Scientologist, quit and issued a public statement calling them bigots. "There are reports that Isaac had a stroke and Scientology quit the show for him, and I believe it," says Stone. "It was a brutal, up-close, personal thing with Isaac.

You don't correct their spelling, that is what [[[sic]]] is for). 10th of March, "at the 2007 Game Developers Conference" is much better.

Thank you for explaining Wikipedia's new policy on image licencing to me, I've been having every image I upload deleted and couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong.

Congrats on your RFA (nice comfortable majority; I missed it was going on). Well done on protecting global warming... I was just wondering whether to protect the article or block Blue Tie for a 5RR on it. Do you have a game plan, since it determines whether I do the block as well? In theory as blocking users is a defensive measure I don't need to block the user if the page is going to stay protected for a while. However if it was a "heat of the moment" thing and you are planning on unprotect in the cool of the morning I probably should do a block. -- BozMo talk 10:47, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey there. I'm pleased to let you know that, consensus being reached, you are now an administrator! You've volunteered to do housekeeping duties that normal users sadly cannot participate in. Sysops can't do a lot of stuff: They can't delete pages just like that (except patent nonsense like "aojt9085yu8;3ou"), and they can't protect pages in an edit war they are involved in. But they can delete random junk, ban anonymous vandals, delete pages listed on articles for deletion (provided there's a consensus) for more than one week, protect pages when asked to, and keep the few protected pages that exist on Wikipedia up to date.
Almost anything you can do can be undone, but please take a look at The Administrators' how-to guide and the Administrators' reading list before you get started (although you should have read that during your candidacy ;). Take a look before experimenting with your powers. Also, please add Administrators' noticeboard to your watchlist, as there are always discussions/requests for admins there. If you have any questions drop me a message at My talk page. Have fun! =Nichalp «Talk»==Nichalp «Talk»= 17:33, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't notice the fact the griefer was headless (surely there's a better image to illustrate that point though?). I hope the recent edit was acceptable- as I've tweaked the caption to illustrate both the weird gameplay and the SP character's portrayals in the game. The thing is, the Wikimedia board has recently passed a stricter resolution on the use of fair use images, ( http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Resolution:Licensing_policy) and one of the implications proposed in WT:FUis that episode articles might be restricted to at most one image per episode. So unless we show some restraint in the use of images for SP episode articles, they might all get deleted. Borisblue 22:06, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Hey, you said that the second image had already been deleted as being redundant to this image. In actuality, the second image was redundant to Image:Old Ireleth map (1850-1873).PNG. I uploaded the image as name it was saved as on my laptop (Map3, as it was the third stage, the first being the crop, the second being the removal of the watermark), then I realised, so I uploaded it again with the wrong date in the title, because I had misunderstood the website I was using as a source. Apologies for the confusion, I was somewhat tired at the time. So, could you reconsider not deleting this image? J Milburn 17:56, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
“ | Hi there. The problem was completely my fault- I kept on uploading the picture dispite the fact I wasn't ready. Too tired! Basically,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Map3.PNG and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Old_Ireleth_map_%281850-1873%29.PNG are the same image, but Map3 is orphaned (because it is redundant to the other) has the wrong date (because I misunderstood the website I was using) and has a poor title, which probably would constitute deletion on its own. In short, please delete Map3.PNG.
Thanks. J Milburn. |

Cut a sheet of plain red or pink paper into strips to go around the table. The wider the tabletop, the wider the strip should be. Glue it down about 4 inches at a time, applying the glue directly to the tabletop. Place the paper on the table keeping closely to the edge of the table. Apply more glue to the strips so that they will adhere well. Continue around the entire circumference of the table.
Use scissors to cut out the roses in the rose-printed paper. Cut along the edges of the roses so that the glued-over effect is not noticeable. Juxtapose the pieces of paper in order to cover the entire center of the tabletop.
Cut out squares of rose-patterned paper. The square side should correspond to the width of the strip. Prior to pasting them on, place them on the strip to get a better estimate of the space between each square and the number necessary.
Finishing touch: Apply two coats of varnish. Let dry.

I wonder if you could use some other South Park reference in your signature. While ironically amusing, it may give the wrong impression to editors who are not aware of where it comes from.
