I think we should include a list that shows the quality of each element group and whether they have become FA or not (Noble Gas has). What do you guys think? Wii Wiki ( talk) 15:21, 10 July 2008 (UTC) reply

Image:Periodic Table by Quality.PNG allready does. Check below 7th period. Nergaal ( talk) 15:58, 10 July 2008 (UTC) reply

Thanks for telling me what that was. The groups have them, but what about the periods? Wii Wiki ( talk) 17:07, 10 July 2008 (UTC) reply

Check the talk page of the same image. Nergaal ( talk) 17:55, 10 July 2008 (UTC) reply

There is for the Lanthanoids and Actinoids, but not the others. I'm kind of new to Wikipedia, so I don't know how to edit images. Wii Wiki ( talk) 19:47, 10 July 2008 (UTC) reply

Hello Wii Wiki, I have granted your account rollback in accordance with your request. Please remember that rollback should only be used to revert vandalism, and that misuse/abuse of the tool, either by reverting good-faith edits or revert-warring, can lead to it being removed. For practice, you may wish to read Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. Good luck. Acalamari 18:32, 7 September 2008 (UTC) reply

You're welcome. :) Acalamari 18:39, 7 September 2008 (UTC) reply

You should read the instructions at wp:FAC. And remember "Nominators who are not significant contributors to the article should consult regular editors of the article prior to nomination!" Nergaal ( talk) 00:50, 8 September 2008 (UTC) reply

You changed Wikipedia:Recursion to redirect to Recursion; I reverted. The recursive recursion is a joke. It's in the project namespace, not article namespace, so it's not a problem for the encyclopedia. See WP:HUMOR, WP:FUN, and WP:COMMUNITY for why humor is a good thing. Cheers! — DragonHawk ( talk| hist) 23:46, 30 July 2009 (UTC) reply

Bot of the month? Wii Wiki ( talk) 00:01, 31 July 2009 (UTC) So I got to thinking after browsing through some WP:Bot pages that maybe we can have a featured bot of the month? This would be almost like the featured article process. People would vote for a featured bot status based on the following criteria: (1) How effective the bot is, (2) The different array of tasks a single bot handles, (3) If it has ever malfunctioned, if so, then completely fixed, and (4) Just an alround great bot! The criteria needs improving, but hey, it's a suggestion! The featured bot would be posted on WP:Bot and hopefully the mainpage of en.wikipedia.org. Wii Wiki ( talk) 02:40, 31 July 2009 (UTC) reply

Wii Wiki, thank you for your interest in helping users creating accounts. Your request has been approved. I advise you to read WP:ACCG before you use the system.

At this time, you are allowed to create up to six accounts per day. You won't be able to create an account with a similar name to that of another user. However, if you have reached the limit frequently, you can request the account creator permission at WP:RPE.

Again, thanks for your interest in the account creation system. Join us on IRC at wikipedia-en-accounts and subscribe to the mailing list by going here. Willking1979 (talk) 19:02, 2 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Thank you so much. You won't be disappointed. Wii Wiki ( talk) 19:15, 2 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Re: #34293

You marked this request as similar to an active account, but the account you linked to is in fact inactive. Can you please clarify on this. I'd like you to also tell me what the definition of an inactive account is as far as ACC is concerned. (PS: I also declined your request for +accountcreator, see the note over there) Thanks, Stwalkerster [  talk ] 22:03, 3 August 2009 (UTC) reply

I understand that it was inactive however I could not create the account. Whenever I tried to create the account it (the site) would deny my request, saying that it was too similar. I will admit that I could've defered to a flagged user, and that is my fault that I won't repeat. However it seemed easier for the user requesting the username to create a new one. I guess I did apply for the flag early. I will reapply when I create more account. Wii Wiki ( talk) 23:29, 3 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Wii Wiki, are you using any automated tools to reserve requests for you? Prodego ^talk 00:37, 4 August 2009 (UTC) reply

No, I am not. Why? Wii Wiki ( talk) 00:39, 4 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Auto refreshing the page at all? Prodego ^talk 00:55, 4 August 2009 (UTC) reply

No sir. I usually hit the F5 button, ALOT. Am I too fast? :-D Wii Wiki ( talk) 00:59, 4 August 2009 (UTC) reply

We were wondering how you got the requests so fast without watching the feed of new requests. If you join us on IRC, you would automatically be notified when there is a new request. Might save you time. Feel free to join us there: #wikipedia-en-accounts. If you've never used IRC before, you may like this web based way to connect. Note that connecting to IRC does reveal your IP address. Prodego ^talk 01:08, 4 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Is there a quick "cheat sheet" I can use for free node? Wii Wiki ( talk) 01:14, 4 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Well it is pretty simple. Connect, and then type in the box at the bottom. When you press enter, your text gets sent. Prodego ^talk 01:15, 4 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Thanks Prodego. Wii Wiki ( talk) 01:21, 4 August 2009 (UTC) reply

In regards to a "cheat sheet", you may find this helpful. =) Best, →javért ^stargaze 01:17, 5 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Thanks for the help! Wii Wiki ( talk) 16:12, 12 August 2009 (UTC) reply

I replied to your message at the village pump. I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{ Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 02:13, 5 August 2009 (UTC) reply

I thank you for your support. I have been thinking about creating a Wikiproject: Feature Bot, which would encourage bot owners to improve there bot's page(s). Then would we would choose a bot that could be featured. For right now I'd put the featured bot on the project page, until the idea gets enough support for main-page "rights." I need all the help I can get! So the first step to make this happen would be to gain support and start a Project page. What do you think? Wii Wiki ( talk) 15:41, 7 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Hi! Thanks for looking for vandalism to revert. However, please try in the future to be doubly sure what you are reverting to. [1] Thanks! Eric ( EWS23) 01:24, 19 August 2009 (UTC) reply

Come one and come all. To a presentation at the Laurel Historical Society about how you can help verify, validate, and edit the information that is on the front line of local history.

• Show the Internet who is the better editor.
• Be the creator of culture that you know you are.
• Spread the knowledge of noteworthy people who no one but you cares about.
• Lead the charge to a better Wikipedia --- eventually.

The WikiSalon is a special meetup usually held during the first and third full weeks of every month, from 7 PM to 9 PM. It's an informal gathering of Wikimedia enthusiasts, who come together to discuss Wikimedia wikis and collaboratively edit. There's no set agenda, and guests are welcome to recommend articles for the group to edit or edit on their own.

If you're coming by Metro, the closest station is Dupont Circle (on the Red Line). If you're driving, a lot of parking opens up downtown after 6:30 PM, so finding a parking space (even a free one) should be easy. Once you've found the building, go to Cove on the second floor. We will be in the conference room.

When: Wednesday, September 17, 2014 at 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM

Where: The Cove, Dupont Circle, 1730 Connecticut Avenue NW, 2nd floor, 20009, DC
