Hey Scepia, borrowed one of your already made templates (credit was given :o)) and I made one making fun of "you" being the "Person of the Year" for 2006 by Time Magazine....everyone can use this one. It is located here: User:Orangemonster2k1/Userboxes/Time2006 If it wouldn't be too much trouble, could you tell me where a list of the letter/number combos and their corresponding colors are...Thanks! - SVRTVDude 08:18, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

So in what way are your amendments hilarious? They seem very similar to vandalism.
In fact, you seem to claim you're against vandalism when really you seem to thrive upon it. Don't you think you should either remove all references to your past vandalism OR remove all statements on your userpage saying you're against it?
Surely your entire userpage is a Vanity page, and as such (going by your own self-embraced ideal that all vanity pages should be removed) you should remove it yourself.
Just a thought. Blackmatt666 23:09, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Since Game Rankings requires only 10 reviews to be ranked, you have to switch the search terms from 20 reviews to 10 reviews. There are 2 games with less than 20 reviews that rank higher than TP (the GBC version of Metal Gear Solid at 96.3% from 17 reviews, and the PC game Championship Manager 4 at 94.9% from 16 reviews).

Thanks for uploading Image:Wikipedia_dot_org.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

I have reverted your change to this image. The subject of the photograph is the physical product itself. Although it screen is included in the image, the image is, quite obviously, not a screen grab. Now, of course, if you're that concerned about it, someone could easily post out the screen all together and you'll be left with an image with a big black screen. Hardly attractive, but if that's what you'd rather see in the article, then so be it. Other than that, I suggest you enlist the help of an admin for explanation.

Wikipedia nor myself care about your personal opinion about copyright. Policy clearly defines these things and I would suggest you read up on it if you want to constructively edit. Maybe even think about using one of the "adopt an admin" programs they have to help guide you on this.

Allo Scepia.
I only don't sign when I'm on certain computers where I can't readily log in. (hence the IP address) When using my own computer, or my office computer, I log in and sign properly.
The reason I don't ~sign when I'm not logged in is because I add (~Bladestorm) to identify who I am, and thought it'd be just a bit too long to include both that, and an IP signature. (almost like signing twice) I figured that identifying who I actually am was more significant than signing a dynamic IP address.
Quick question, as a possible solution... Happen to know if there's a way I can sign as myself without being logged in? (Sorta like how bots "sign" for me, even though they aren't me?) Happen to know if it's possible for me to 'sign for someone else', with the someone else simply being me?

The one sentence or total deletion of this section is unreasonable. WP:NOT states nothing against this list. Instead it says Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia, there is no limit to the size or number of articles. You are therefore violating a policy. Henchman 2000 13:24, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Scepia: if you'd like to userfy any more userboxes, now's a good time. ( CAT:UBM is empty, and my bot is begging for more work :-) — Mets501 ( talk) 04:00, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Why are you moving general purpose, uncontroversial userboxes (that are useful to identify professional traits of editors) to your userspace? It seems like the consensus is to leave such boxes in template space... or at the very least that there is no consensus to remove them. The inconsistent migration of boxes indicating that one is a Bayesian, but not that one is a Statistician is unhelpful. Tomyumgoong 19:00, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
WP:UBM states that it is not necessary to migrate uncontroversial userboxes that are useful in describing the interests of an editor in a way that is useful to the encyclopedia. Migrating them all to a particular individual's userspace (especially without the consensus of those using the boxes) is inappropriate. And silly. Tomyumgoong 01:03, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Allo
I just need to know that I didn't screw anything up (in my first attempt at a template).
The template was for converting foreign currencies to american dollars. You can see the explanation

I don't want to be offensive, but I'd like to know why you moved a userbox I created into your account. As far as I know, you aren't part of the Userbox Migration thing, but then again, I might just be ignorant. Can you please let me know? -- Major Despard 00:59, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

i noticed you tagged an image released by IBM as a candidate for a user-replaced image. The picture is of an IBM tech in a clean room with a tray of Wii chips. I'm not sure how someone could hope to create something to that effect -- how many of us have (camera!) access to an IBM cleanroom? ;-) / Blaxthos 00:00, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
Allo scepia. Just needed some (pretty basic) help, and you were the first person I thought of that I could ask.
I want to archive my talk page, but there are still a couple things that I'd like to keep on it.
I'm having a hard time understanding the wikipedia page for archiving talk pages. If I just 'move' my talk page to /Archive1, will that still preserve the edit history for it? (I figured that, if that worked, then I could just copy over the things I wanted to keep on my main talk page, like the article suggestions from SuggestBot)
So, any problems? Thanks.

Hey Scepia
GameInformer just confirmed that The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass will first be released in Japan, meaning before the 2007 holiday seasons (US date). However, I wasn't too sure how to format this with the Japanese date. I've just put

Have a look at this edit [1]. 2 problems; "User:UBX" implys that it is more official (why can't you host them on your own account?) and the UBXs were already hosted on a willing user page. There's no reason to move them, and especially not to a specific account for userbox hosting. Scepia 03:56, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi there, I noticed what you did with Rfrisbie's userbox archive, and was wondering if you could do the same to mine (if it's not too much work) at User:MiraLuka/Userboxes (a full list is at User:MiraLuka/Userboxes/Alphabetical). I've been out of the userbox "business" for a while now, and I recently asked for a name change, so I thought this would be the ideal time to move them all out. Please let me know if you're willing to do this. — Mira 08:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I'm correcting links pointing to the Resident Evil disambiguation page and noticed one of your userboxes does so. Would you mind if I change it to point to Resident Evil (series) or Resident Evil (video game)? (This should force all the occurrences of the userbox to change right?)

Allo Scepia.
I only don't sign when I'm on certain computers where I can't readily log in. (hence the IP address) When using my own computer, or my office computer, I log in and sign properly.
The reason I don't ~sign when I'm not logged in is because I add (~Bladestorm) to identify who I am, and thought it'd be just a bit too long to include both that, and an IP signature. (almost like signing twice) I figured that identifying who I actually am was more significant than signing a dynamic IP address.
Quick question, as a possible solution... Happen to know if there's a way I can sign as myself without being logged in? (Sorta like how bots "sign" for me, even though they aren't me?) Happen to know if it's possible for me to 'sign for someone else', with the someone else simply being me?

I'm not being territorial, the subject has been talked to death on the talk page and everytime it get shots down. How many times does it need to be discussed. TJ Spyke 01:13, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
{{ Lowercase}} isn't an article warning - it just changes the page title so the first character displays in lowercase, and is used for pages that have lowercase titles (such as eBay and Talk:eBay). -- Core desat 07:15, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
The one sentence or total deletion of this section is unreasonable. WP:NOT states nothing against this list. Instead it says Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia, there is no limit to the size or number of articles. You are therefore violating a policy. Henchman 2000 13:24, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
The images you removed from my userpage may be screenshots, but I took them myself. Who changed the licensing?! Pikminlover Meep!| | 01:02, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Scepia: if you'd like to userfy any more userboxes, now's a good time. ( CAT:UBM is empty, and my bot is begging for more work :-) — Mets501 ( talk) 04:00, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Why are you moving general purpose, uncontroversial userboxes (that are useful to identify professional traits of editors) to your userspace? It seems like the consensus is to leave such boxes in template space... or at the very least that there is no consensus to remove them. The inconsistent migration of boxes indicating that one is a Bayesian, but not that one is a Statistician is unhelpful. Tomyumgoong 19:00, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
WP:UBM states that it is not necessary to migrate uncontroversial userboxes that are useful in describing the interests of an editor in a way that is useful to the encyclopedia. Migrating them all to a particular individual's userspace (especially without the consensus of those using the boxes) is inappropriate. And silly. Tomyumgoong 01:03, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Allo
I just need to know that I didn't screw anything up (in my first attempt at a template).
The template was for converting foreign currencies to american dollars. You can see the explanation
here. And you can find the template
here.
Did I make any horrible mistakes?

I don't want to be offensive, but I'd like to know why you moved a userbox I created into your account. As far as I know, you aren't part of the Userbox Migration thing, but then again, I might just be ignorant. Can you please let me know? -- Major Despard 00:59, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, Scepia. Look, I know that no one owns anything on Wikipedia and all that sort of stuff. Sorry to be a pain, too. Anyway, thanks again. -- Major Despard 05:35, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
i noticed you tagged an image released by IBM as a candidate for a user-replaced image. The picture is of an IBM tech in a clean room with a tray of Wii chips. I'm not sure how someone could hope to create something to that effect -- how many of us have (camera!) access to an IBM cleanroom? ;-) / Blaxthos 00:00, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
Allo scepia. Just needed some (pretty basic) help, and you were the first person I thought of that I could ask.
I want to archive my talk page, but there are still a couple things that I'd like to keep on it.
I'm having a hard time understanding the wikipedia page for archiving talk pages. If I just 'move' my talk page to /Archive1, will that still preserve the edit history for it? (I figured that, if that worked, then I could just copy over the things I wanted to keep on my main talk page, like the article suggestions from SuggestBot)
So, any problems? Thanks.

Hey Scepia
GameInformer just confirmed that The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass will first be released in Japan, meaning before the 2007 holiday seasons (US date). However, I wasn't too sure how to format this with the Japanese date. I've just put
for now, but perhaps you have a better idea to format it.

User:PatPeter/Wikiproject:Source to Short/StSBarnstar
Have a look at this edit [1]. 2 problems; "User:UBX" implys that it is more official (why can't you host them on your own account?) and the UBXs were already hosted on a willing user page. There's no reason to move them, and especially not to a specific account for userbox hosting. Scepia 03:56, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi there, I noticed what you did with Rfrisbie's userbox archive, and was wondering if you could do the same to mine (if it's not too much work) at User:MiraLuka/Userboxes (a full list is at User:MiraLuka/Userboxes/Alphabetical). I've been out of the userbox "business" for a while now, and I recently asked for a name change, so I thought this would be the ideal time to move them all out. Please let me know if you're willing to do this. — Mira 08:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Can you have created so many, would you mind creating one for people who prefer Xbox and GameCube over the PS2 (similar to the one you made for Xbox and PS2 over GameCube)? TJ Spyke 07:54, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I'm correcting links pointing to the Resident Evil disambiguation page and noticed one of your userboxes does so. Would you mind if I change it to point to Resident Evil (series) or Resident Evil (video game)? (This should force all the occurrences of the userbox to change right?) Gimboid 15:09, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Hey there Scepia,
I've noted that you've contributed before to the List of Wii games. Just wanted to let you know that the list is getting ready for Featured status and is currently undergoing a Peer Review. If you can take a moment to look over the article and add your suggestions/comments for improvement here, it'd be much appreciated. Thanks! - Digiwrld1 22:03, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Close to all of your userboxes are miscategorized. Please read the rules at Category:User templates before making any more. - Pat Peter 14:02, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
I see you changed the Franchise list to use #'s instead of 1,2,3... Your reason was display issues. May I ask what the display issues were? Zomic_13 15:40, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
Please do not mislead people into going to pages they did not intend to go to. This is considered vandalism and if you do not stop, I will request that you be blocked eskimospy ( talk to me) 15:40, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Ummm...heh; I know that this makes me sound like either a perfectionist or a nerd, but shouldn't your Soul Calibur/Blade userbox say "This user plays games in the Soul series" or something along the line of that? ChromeWulf ZX 23:51, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Ehhh..ok...thanks anyway. ChromeWulf ZX 23:55, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
We are just listing the first date it was available (which was, by the way, for almost all of North America and part of South America. So it wasn't just the United States). There is a link right next to it to the Wii launch page, which has the release date info for every country. If you feel differently, please start a discussion on the Wii talk page.

Hey Scepia, could you please do me a favor? I need to find the logo for Fallout 3 and scale it down to userbox size. I tried to upload one of mine but it didn't work, could you help me? WikiTaco 21:43, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
First of all I want to say, great job on all the userboxes. Now, to the point, the user box
This user plays all the Elder Scrolls games. |
links to Elder Scrolls rather than The Elder Scrolls I'm trying to clean up the list of pages that link to Elder Scrolls but alot of them are users using your userbox. I don't know how possible this is but if it is possible could you make the small change to the link. Thanks Cabe6403 23:43, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Nevermind, figured out how to do it myself, I hope you don't mind Cabe6403 00:40, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Pfizer-logo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 05:59, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Forgive me, but so as not to clutter that discussion page with yet another dialogue, I thought I would ask you here: why did you separate out the paragraphs on the French women's survey and the San Francisco men's survey from the hetero and homo categories in the Anal sex article?
