Hi. I think there's a template or category I can add to unwanted user pages to have them deleted. Does anybody know what that is? Meanwhile, if someone here has the tools, could you please delete:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World%27s_largest_universities has a strange, floating tool icon on the right hand side: "[x] This is a tool icon."
Interestingly, this page is redirected to "List of largest universities by enrollment". If you go directly to that page, it doesn't have the tool icon.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04LTS, Chromium 18.0.1025.151 (Developer Build 130497 Linux) Ubuntu 10.04.
I've uploaded a screenshot of the issue here: http://www.undue.org/ToolIcon.png — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.189.175.250 ( talk) 08:55, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi, guys, Yes, I'm Pete Vroom, teaching at Ming De College in Xi'an, China for a year. I'm up to my proverbial "-" between teaching here and online for Troy University, and only signed up because I had some first-hand knowledge regarding what Wikipedia datedly calls Xian Institute of Posts and Telecommunications, vs. what it is officially known here as: XUPT, or Xi'an University of Posts and Telecommunications. (I recently gave a lecture there on the environment, at the request of the Vice Dean of the Social Sciences College there.) All that said, if there is any research or confirmation needed regarding Xi'an - especially its post-secondary education system - I'm here until the next Chines New Year in February, 2013, and willing to help, and obviously have contacts who can give me insights which (hopefully) I can confirm before contacting you again. Regardless, best on 'ya for what you do. Peter Vroom ( talk) 12:12, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Is there a script/addon for firefox or chrome that makes adding templates and editing much easier? Basically what's important to me is to have quick access to things like {.{.db-spam.}.} and such because I cant find all of them listed anywhere. Ravelair ( talk) 13:45, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
When I clicked "Random article" I was taken to the page for "Cajole", which had the following text:
Wikipedia does not have an encyclopedic article for Cajole (search results). You may want to read Wiktionary's entry on "cajole" instead.wiktionary:Special:Search/cajole
If there's no article for "cajole", how did "Random article" land there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.143.205.150 ( talk) 14:48, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I used to use this link from toolserver.org [1] to keep track of my editing statistics. I don't know who created this tool, but apparently their account has expired. Does anyone know what happened? More importantly, is there a way to fix this or use a different tool? A Quest For Knowledge ( talk) 16:12, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
Can someone rename Category:Educational organizations in the Denmark to Category:Educational organizations in Denmark ? Thanks GrahamHardy ( talk) 22:03, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
