Hi. Thanks for adding the better coding for the table. Someone had added the "sortable" code earlier, but that caused the internal grid lines in the table to disappear. I had been trying other code to fix it, but with limited success. Your addition/substitution of
class="sortable wikitable"
fixed several problems. The grid lines are not as dark. They are now gray. That looks better. Also, the last column now has grid lines, too. The background of blank cells is now gray, instead of white. That looks better.
I used the code to fix the tables here:
class="wikitable"
with class="sortable"
, not realizing that it is possible to use more than one class at once as I have done. (Another example is class="messagebox standard-talk"
used on talk page templates, where the "messagebox" part gives it a border, centers it and makes it 80% of the width of the screen, while the "standard-talk" part gives it the orange-brown color) –

Hi Qxz. The templates are tagged with the {{ permprot}} tag on the talk pages, which is how they should be (I actually started making a few of the changes then realised it was unnecessary). I have used rollback to revert your edits; please don't take offence to this, but there were a lot of pages you made the same request to. Neil (not Proto ►) 22:27, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Heh, thanks. ^_^ Who says guys can't appreciate flowers, eh? Unless this is one more in a long series of "Luna is a girl's name :o" jokes! Much appreciated, and always glad to help out those who help out the community. – Luna Santin ( talk) 04:00, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Would you mind making something for Wikiproject Pennsylvania to help promote it? The project isn't going so well, with only 22 members, and I was looking for something to grab people's interest and get them involved. Thanks, 1312020Wikicop 20:55, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Should we make Wikipedia harder from people who are vandalists or etc., like a special test? Trampton 04:15, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
This shouldn't be a redlink as I just done a basi stub based on infomration in the IMDB and BFI databases (both entries linked from stub) – ShakespeareFan00 12:39, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
It would be nice if you had an ad code, that would be vertical, as well as the current horizontal.
Kind of like, real ads.

Hey, how about a possible AIV banner. Something flashy that would get the message across that people should report only after a user violates a t3 or t4 (uw-3 or uw-4) warning, and not before they go against the warning. That might be effective (maybe we can put it on AIV, itself lol). Tell me if you like the suggestion. Nishkid 64 04:11, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi Qxz, your banner advertisements idea is nice. Suggestions: 1) an ad for RC patrolling, 2) create a WikiProject around the ad project (e.g. Wikipedia:WikiProject Internal Marketing), 3) use protection instead of .css extension hack -- hey wait a minute! 30,000 edits? Do you want to be an admin yet :) ? I looked at some of your contributions; you have a standing offer of nomination from me whenever you're ready. (I know some people will oppose over wikiage, but you've contributed so much already. I was promoted after 2 months of activity, so "under 6 months" is not impossible.) – Quarl ( talk) 07:38, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

I noticed you've got images being transcluded onto a large number of pages, making your Ads template a high visibility template really needing to have some protection (for obvious reasons). I've semi protected the css file and added cascading protection so as far as I can tell, all the advert images are fully protected. I hope this is acceptable and if you need admin assistance, just shout on me and I'll be happy to help. -- Nick t 22:50, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Huh, not sure what to make of that. My impression was that cascading semi doesn't work (it applies admin protection to everything transcluded, unless the devs fixed that bit).

Are we really supposed to be removing links from this list?

Hi, regarding your comment on the edit I made to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_foam . I respect your decision to remove my link and if that's the way it must be then there's nothing I can do about it but can I just ask you to have a closer look at http://www.myfoammattress.net/memory/ild.html . This is the most comprehensive report on memory foam firmness out there, it involved 30+ hours of research, interviewing and writing and is very useful for anyone who wants to understand how memory foam works. The link has been in Wikipedia for months now which to me it means that senior editors deemed it worthy and useful. I hope you will reconsider your decision to remove the link.

Yes. I have sent some wikipedia mails to some editors and technically they may be contrued to be spam. However, my purpose was to watch the development and emergence of online community, and I had made this clear in my mail. If you feel aggrieved then I express my apology. However, I still feel that we should participate in emerging online communities to learn more about the phenomenon at its nascent stage, and to apply the lessons to wikipedia if possible. Still I respect your right to feel aggrieved and I would request to treat the matter in this light. I also think that (though may have all the right to think differently) this issue has nothing to do with my position as an administrator here, and it was done in my personal capacity. In case, people feel otherwise, I shall send any one any mail only after asking the editor concerned as regards his/ her intention to receive any mail from me outside anything connected with wikipedia. Sometimes, people surely send mails not connected with wikipedia and it should not be construed as a misconduct on the part of any editor or administrator. However, at the second thought I think that you people are right in your judgment in commenting about my action. As wished by you, I am also posting this at the ANI. Regards. -- Bhadani 02:43, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
You've made a recent contribution to the article on strategic management, and I've made a proposal to revert that article to a prior version that existed before vandalism in July 2006. Please see Talk: Strategic management#Once_a_great_article. Please add your comments to that talk page if you're concerned about this. Thank you. -- SueHay 04:07, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi Qxz
I notice that you've begun mass protecting a large number of stub templates. For your information, we have around 3,000 of these. Have you consulted WP:WSS at all before beginning this? Stub templates are virtually never vandalised so any such action should at least be debated with WP:WSS first. Simply protecting a large number of stub templates seems rather over the top to me. Cheers. Valentinian T / C 08:52, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi there! Are you an admin? R@y 10:59, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for adding the better coding for the table. Someone had added the "sortable" code earlier, but that caused the internal grid lines in the table to disappear. I had been trying other code to fix it, but with limited success. Your addition/substitution of
class="sortable wikitable"
fixed several problems. The grid lines are not as dark. They are now gray. That looks better. Also, the last column now has grid lines, too. The background of blank cells is now gray, instead of white. That looks better.
I used the code to fix the tables here:
class="wikitable"
with class="sortable"
, not realizing that it is possible to use more than one class at once as I have done. (Another example is class="messagebox standard-talk"

In case, people feel otherwise, I shall send any one any mail only after asking the editor concerned as regards his/ her intention to receive any mail from me outside anything connected with wikipedia. Sometimes, people surely send mails not connected with wikipedia and it should not be construed as a misconduct on the part of any editor or administrator. However, at the second thought I think that you people are right in your judgment in commenting about my action. As wished by you, I am also posting this at the ANI.

You've made a recent contribution to the article on strategic management, and I've made a proposal to revert that article to a prior version that existed before vandalism in July 2006. Please see Talk: Strategic management#Once_a_great_article. Please add your comments to that talk page if you're concerned about this. Thank you. -- SueHay 04:07, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi Qxz
I notice that you've begun mass protecting a large number of stub templates. For your information, we have around 3,000 of these. Have you consulted WP:WSS at all before beginning this? Stub templates are virtually never vandalised so any such action should at least be debated with WP:WSS first. Simply protecting a large number of stub templates seems rather over the top to me.

Hi there! Are you an admin? R@y 10:59, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Sorry about that, I forgot how to remove the article. It seemed unnecessary to have two separate articles about the exact same thing. – R00723r0 03:37, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
I noticed your revert here within the minute, and had a look at your contributions... Re. RfA discussion above, I reckon another month, then you should start gearing up. Tyrenius 05:37, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
