Hi, just a heads-up that you may be violating Wikipedia's copyright policy by using two copyrighted fair-use images on your userpages (the Pages and Metapackage icons) which are listed as for use only "to illustrate or identify the computer software in question". :) Davidjk (msg+edits) 16:52, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
You have made a couple of edits which claim to add columns to the reference section. I can't see any difference. Does this only work on some systems? Rmhermen 18:01, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi, Brad thanks for the Kemari pics, one of which I have added to Football. Regarding Tanzan Shrine, I just noticed that Sakurai, Nara has a link to Danzan Shrine. I guess this may be a Japanese-to-English transliteration issue(?) Thought you might like to know. Grant65 | Talk 14:30, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
Welcome, BradBeattie, to Esperanza! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.
Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is Stressbusters, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.
In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Proposals.
If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact our administrator general Natalya by email or talk page. Consider introducing yourself at the Esperanza talk page! Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an IRC tutorial. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!

I'd like to invite you to visit the site and sample the strip at various points in its history. I don't expect to make you abandon your "master-plan" to cleanse Wiki~'s comics covergae, but I do hope to persuade you that this is not a fly-by-night job, adn that the lack of references is probably becausde this is art for art's sake, not art to get the critics babbling about it. Respecfully, Simon Cursitor
Sorry Brad, I accidentally inserted a comment between your comment and your signature on the AfD page. That was a bit clumsy of me. (I even previewed, too! And, yes, I really will get a username someday, I promise.) I considered fixing it, but I'd rather not clutter up the history page any further – feel free to tweak it if you like.68.250.175.194 21:53, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
I share your concerns about letting in things of trivial notability, but I also really worry about the integrity of the AfD process when webcomics are involved. I don't see a good objective measure that draws a bright line between notable and almost-notable webcomics, that also consistently includes webcomics we subjectively know are important. I've read and thought about WP:WEB quite a bit, and I'm not trying to debate it, I'm just worried about the outcome for webcomics as a class. (Comics that have print analogs seem easier to deal with for obvious reasons.) In your opinion, is there room in Wikipedia for subjective evaluations of notability?68.250.175.194 21:53, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your nessage, I've been really busy for a few months but I'll be back to normal now things are a bit quieter. Seivad 15:22, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
That user seems to be on a vandalism spree... I'm keeping tabs on him. :)

NO!!! It's..."just not working", to quote some of my friends on their computers (not WikiGuard). Maybe IRC is down? D: --M1ss1ontomars2k4 (T | C | @) 17:48, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Dear BradBeattie,
an extreme edit of Hrosvit took place on 20:26, 13 November. I replaced the erased links to other languages and external sources. Although I have contributed to Wikipedia on and off for the past few months, I don't know how to react to this...a fairly good medium-sized biography suddenly lost over half of its content. Could you look at the situation? Thank you. Robertwalton 23:15, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi! Just noticed that you have signed on as a participant in WikiProject Computer science, and wanted to welcome you to the project. Please stop by the project talk page to see what the other participants have on their minds right now, and to add your own thoughts. --Allan McInnes (talk) 04:53, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

A barnstar for one of the most interesting articles I have ever seen: 0.999.... Well done! --lE☺N2323 22:47, 15 November 2006 (UTC) |
Hey there... You should only be tagging images with {{subst:orfud}} when the image is copyrighted and when it is not used in an article. Images that are tagged as public domain or released under the GFDL do not qualify for the speedy tag. ORFUD stands for orphaned fair use deletion. I am going to reverse your tagging on the images.--Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 14:04, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
Hey Aeropagitica, about a month ago I made an RFA that you provided feedback on. I'm just wondering if you could spare a couple minutes to take a look at how I'm doing so far. It'd be much appreciated. Thanks! :) --Brad Beattie (talk) 04:38, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
No rush. It's much appreciated. :) --Brad Beattie (talk) 01:50, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi, just wandering if you can provide me quotes of "lack of formal tone" as you mentioned in your review. Thanks. Dorians1 02:41, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
I would like to see if you had changed your views concerning the AfD for The Wiseguys: Comedy You Can't Refuse. There have been major edits performed to the enrty in an attempt to meet Wikipedia:Notability (comedy) since your comment on the talk page. Any additional comments would be appreciated in the effort to make the entry comply.
Thank you for your consideration. Apatronoftruth 18:28, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for your input on the additonal information I added to several Japanese articles. The information that was partially transcribed, and was also rewritten was extracted from Press Releases issued by the entities involved. A Press Release from the architect of the Osaka Museum, whose office is in CT, was also sent out regarding this project a number of times to trade journals and art institutions. If the information is contained, verbatim in a Press Release, I had thought that meant it was intended to be re-published. I am most appreciative of your comments. Thank-you (Dommo arrigato gozimasta). — Preceding unsigned comment added by MissionCreek (talk • contribs)
Hi, thanks for your image. However, the reason why my image had no labels and was rather simple was to enable the illustration of the basic shapes of certain polynomials without distracting features. Your image looks a little out of place now on the polynomial article – scroll down to the part where there's a whole lot of them. Let me know what you think. I guess a way forward would be to recreate the rest of them? Of course, the best option would be to create new ones in SVG format instead of new ones in PNG. Cheers. enochlau (talk) 23:34, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
Okay, sorry about that. I just don't see how thats wrong, the Firefox one seems to be tolerated. But if you must. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fliptopsean (talk • contribs)

Thanks for making more specific links in {{expert}} templates, like here, but note that few if any mathematicians hang around at the mathematics portal. The correct link is the math wikiproject, at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mathematics. Wonder what you think. You can reply here, thanks. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 16:05, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 03:49, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
I've finished the translation of Osaka Science Museum you requested. --Grgcox 23:14, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Brad, I've altered the article on The noob to include three refrences which meet the notability guidelines as specified, and created external links to the references so that they can be reviewed. Can I get you to change your mind on the AFD page? Timmccloud 16:28, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for nominating a ton of articles for deletion, great job you're doing for the world there. These books aren't notable enough -- burn them! 70.181.45.122 10:53, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
I would like to express my appreciation of the time you spent considering my successful RfA. Thankyou Gnangarra 13:39, 26 November 2006 (UTC) |
Hey, thanks for pitching in on the ever-present defense from vandalism. Look out for popups though as it occassionally reverts to the wrong revision. On a side note, how's the weather in Ottawa this winter? I seem to be escaping a Canadian winter here in Japan. :) --Brad Beattie (talk) 17:29, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
Any time. :) Just be sure to pull out the scarf in time. Before you know it, it's going to look like this picture here. --Brad Beattie (talk) 17:37, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
I wasn't going to send thank-you cards, but the emotional impact of hitting WP:100 (and doing so unanimously!) changed my mind. So I appreciate your confidence in me (especially since you obviously did review my contributions before doing so, per your talk page comment find), and hope you'll let me know if I can do anything for you in the future. Cheers! -- nae'blis 21:21, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
Oh, the humanity!
I had my doubts about a second RfA, but even I couldn't have predicted the way it caught fire and inexorably drifted to the ground in flames, causing quite a stir on its way down. Still, it was encouraging to see the level of support and confidence. Thank you for yours, and I hope I'll still have it the next time around. Kafziel Talk 13:10, 29 November 2006 (UTC) |
Hey
Thanks for your message about WikiGuard. I'm at work at the moment, and we're using XP on PCs so I'll have to wait until I get home to give it a go, but I'd be delighted to trial it for you and provide feedback! Cheers! Budgiekiller 08:10, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
