Favorite Wikipedia quote: The argument for deletion that a Category already exists is simply not consistent with WP:CLN and should not be even considered. --Mike Cline (talk) 17:28, 14 September 2008 (UTC) [1] Is barely scraping by these days with more fly past edits than any coherent organisational structure at the noticeboard or any form of collab (although we dont tell anyone that) and one of the biggest issues is the english challenged indonesian editors who put a name up on the english project (rather than on the indonesian one where they could just as easily do) usually in lists so that in parts we have these marvellous untouched lists of unalphabetical names to make red links and then no activity there ever again (unchallenged tags are between 1 to 2 years in some cases) - well i am very slowly systematically going through the more obvious lists - removing all the red links to the talk page - so that eds know that if they add red lnks theyre gonna get removed - otherwise the project looks like a paradise of red links that never get worked on. SO I have your list to deal with which has red links everywhere - any thoughts? at least you speakk da english :( Satu Suro 09:27, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
I saw your note on Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists of basic topics. We need someone to do some simple edits to the set of country profiles we are developing. Really easy stuff, like adding the population figure for each country (which you would get off of each country article, so no hunting is required). We also need editors who would like to work with the finding and placing of images (like pics of cities, other cool places, animals, presidents, people in a cultural context, etc. etc. etc.). Things like that. There is a team of editors working on the set, and we'd love to work with ya. Here is an example of the type of pages we are building. We're developing one for every country of the world, and everyone on the team is working on all of them, each team member completing a specific task or item for all of the countries of the world -- this approach keeps thing interesting, and is a lot like traveling around the world. If you are interested, drop me a note. And as you progress in the project, we'll introduce you to some wiki-tools to help you go... ...faster! The Transhumanist 03:23, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi, I started working on List of basic mining topics, which was on the 'requested basic lists' section, but now it's slated to be deleted. Could you take a look at it to see what's wrong with it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Erikzann ( talk • contribs) 13:30, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey Transhumanist, It is good to be back after a long while of summer traveling. I look forward to jumping back into the fray here on Wikipedia, although I must confess that there is a deep reluctance to commit to any major undertakings here, as I have been a bit flaky regarding my on-wiki work this summer, as evidenced by my contribs. Between my full time job, community service, hobbies, vacations, family, and other commitments, I find that I have been spending almost no time here this summer. I am, of course, willing to help in any area that you may need assistance in. As it stands, however, any assistance I am asked to render may be deferred or at least delayed substantially. Hope your summer also is going along swimmingly -- Sharkface T/ C 19:38, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey Transhumanist, I'm terribly sorry for being so inactive in the past 2 weeks. I am also sorry to tell you that I am going out of the country for another 2 weeks without any access to graphics software. I know this may be very frustrating to you. You might want to ask someone else with graphics capabilities to complete your request on atlas. I would sent you the layered file but atlas is >72MB and is over 22 layers. Not very user friendly unless you know exactly what layer is what. Also there is no way I'm going to be able to attach that on an email. Yahoo mail's max attachment is 10MB. I think whom ever it may be that finishes on atlas will find it just as hard to start from my latest draft as it would be to start from the layered file. When I get back, if you sill aren't successful, I promise to get it to you asap. Again I'm really sorry for being such a droll. I turned down another request recently you're not the only one. -- penubag ( talk) 07:01, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey Transhumanist, Sorry it took so long to reply. As you have noticed, I have been highly inactive this summer. Unfortunately, I have been preoccupied by the reasons stated before (work, school, getting into college, etc.) and as such have been pretty incognito.

When I try to edit a page, I get the following notice:
All I did was submit a bot proposal (and created a corresponding account "TT Bot"), in good faith, but the bot proposal was summarily dismissed without discussion or explanation, and I was immediately blocked. The same block also appears to be affecting an entire public library (from where I've been accessing Wikipedia). There's something wrong with the bot department. Users should not be penalized for making a proposal, and the coordinators should explain why they denied a proposal in common English so the proposer can understand. All that was provided was a link. It doesn't make clear why my proposal was rejected. I'm left scratching my head, and a little miffed for being blocked. The Transhumanist 02:33, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Assuming there's no deadline for the Atlas, I will redo it to the best of my ability, and just because I don't upload a draft for a while, it doesn't mean I've forgotten about it either.

Hey, a while back I helped you with the List of online encyclopedias article. I like your layout for the page both visually appealing and useful, so I modeled a list I created, List of blogs, after it.

On this page Wikipedia:User Page Design Center/Style in the WIKI. You have a section called Show/Hide sections. In that section you have in the code a template call {{Round corners}} I have tried to find this template to see how the code whas written. I play the game called Fallen Sword on the internet and I have a profile on the WIKI for this game. I am trying to build a menu to put on the top of my pages to cut down the space that my tabs take up at the top and to make it more eaiser to follow. One of the problems is that the people who run the WIKI stopped some of the scripting functions to work. I do not know if these div class="NavFrame", div class="NavHead", and div class="NavContent" will work in the game WIKI either.

Hey Transhumanist, I'm terribly sorry for being so inactive in the past 2 weeks. I am also sorry to tell you that I am going out of the country for another 2 weeks without any access to graphics software. I know this may be very frustrating to you. You might want to ask someone else with graphics capabilities to complete your request on atlas. I would sent you the layered file but atlas is >72MB and is over 22 layers. Not very user friendly unless you know exactly what layer is what. Also there is no way I'm going to be able to attach that on an email. Yahoo mail's max attachment is 10MB. I think whom ever it may be that finishes on atlas will find it just as hard to start from my latest draft as it would be to start from the layered file. When I get back, if you sill aren't successful, I promise to get it to you asap. Again I'm really sorry for being such a droll. I turned down another request recently you're not the only one. -- penubag ( talk) 07:01, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey Transhumanist, Sorry it took so long to reply. As you have noticed, I have been highly inactive this summer. Unfortunately, I have been preoccupied by the reasons stated before (work, school, getting into college, etc.) and as such have been pretty incognito. I am not back but will make an effort to drop in here more often. If urgent contact is needed, send me an email. Thanks -- Sharkface T/ C 23:00, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

When I try to edit a page, I get the following notice:
All I did was submit a bot proposal (and created a corresponding account "TT Bot"), in good faith, but the bot proposal was summarily dismissed without discussion or explanation, and I was immediately blocked. The same block also appears to be affecting an entire public library (from where I've been accessing Wikipedia). There's something wrong with the bot department. Users should not be penalized for making a proposal, and the coordinators should explain why they denied a proposal in common English so the proposer can understand. All that was provided was a link. It doesn't make clear why my proposal was rejected. I'm left scratching my head, and a little miffed for being blocked. The Transhumanist 02:33, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Assuming there's no deadline for the Atlas, I will redo it to the best of my ability, and just because I don't upload a draft for a while, it doesn't mean I've forgotten about it either.

Hey, a while back I helped you with the List of online encyclopedias article. I like your layout for the page both visually appealing and useful, so I modeled a list I created, List of blogs, after it. Now, some deletionists are trying to delete this page on about the same grounds they tried to delete your list.

On this page Wikipedia:User Page Design Center/Style in the WIKI. You have a section called Show/Hide sections. In that section you have in the code a template call {{Round corners}} I have tried to find this template to see how the code whas written. I play the game called Fallen Sword on the internet and I have a profile on the WIKI for this game. I am trying to build a menu to put on the top of my pages to cut down the space that my tabs take up at the top and to make it more eaiser to follow. One of the problems is that the people who run the WIKI stopped some of the scripting functions to work. I do not know if these div class="NavFrame", div class="NavHead", and div class="NavContent" will work in the game WIKI either.
That's not how soft redirects work though. We don't soft redirect to other articles within the same project as far as I know.

I've moved French (language) back to French language, which is correct according to Wikipedia:Naming conventions (languages).
