Hey!

Hey thanks man! Yeah that's something I need to learn how to do...>_< (Not that I have any idea but it would be cool to learn how to make them). Thanks for adopting me and I'll ask you if I need anyhelp :D Letter 7/Caleb (talk) 17:32, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Ah cool, sorry I didn't respond fast enough, alot of s*** going on in my life right now so...whenever it's best for you i'm willing to learn. Letter 7/Caleb (talk) 00:43, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Ah, thanks a million! Yeah I will definatly experiment with userboxes here soon whenever I have any freetime from school >.< Letter 7 (talk) 21:57, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Fake message bar

I'd advise you pull that down... There's a policy it violates, I'm just trying to track down which one. You can keep it, if you modify it so it's not the exact same text that we receive when we actually have a new message. xenocidic (talk) 18:37, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

No problem. For the record, it was a guideline, not a policy ( cf. Wikipedia:Help_desk#What_policy_is_being_violated_here.3F_.28_fake_.22You_have_messages_.22_notifier_.29). cheers, xenocidic (talk) 18:46, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Pictures

They're displaying fine for me when I click the "show" button, but the div bar is too long (overlaps with your infobox). Not sure how to fix that =) xenocidic (talk) 15:28, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Done. Fixed the width box. Is it working now? xenocidic (talk) 15:30, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

No problem. xenocidic (talk) 15:34, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry

Old userpages

If you want to get rid of your old userpages completely, just add a {{db-u2}} to them. Cheers, xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 17:01, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

No problem. All the best =) xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 17:28, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

username code

not quite sure, what problems are you experiencing? i removed the nowiki tags and it looks ok to me? xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 17:51, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

yea, I thought that might be what it was (closing tag with no corresponding opener). good eye. xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 17:59, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

divbox width

Done. just add width:75%; to the style= tag of the first divbox. cheers, xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 16:36, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Advice on speedies

Hi. Welcome to the (informal) New Pages Patrol. May I give you some advice? Rather than use a made-up reason like "not enough info" for a speedy delete, it's much better to use one of the standard templates like {{db-person}} or {{db-band}}. The acceptable reasons for a speedy delete are actually quite restricted, and if one of the standard ones doesn't fit that probably means the page doesn't qualify for a speedy. It's worth reading WP:CSD quite carefully, otherwise you may find that your speedy nominations get declined by the admin who looks at them. Also, once you have put on a speedy template, when you look at the page you will see that the notice includes a warning message which you should copy to the author's talk page. If the author is new and hasn't had one, I like to add some sort of welcome message and pointer to useful places like the Introduction and the guide to creating Your first article, but that's up to you. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 19:11, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

New Page Patroller

Hey, The problem is always almost related to caching. You need to tell your web browser to 'hard refresh' the page as its called. See Wikipedia:Bypass_your_cache. If the problem persists, see your doctor - actually see me. --TheJosh (talk) 02:51, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

I copied your monobook.js into mine, and it still worked so its not a conflict with our other script, leading me into my next question: What is your browser? Name, Version and OS please. --TheJosh (talk) 12:10, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

I have just tested your monobook.js on Internet Explorer version 6, on windows XP sp2, and the box was showing fine. I can do additional testing but I cannot help if I cannot recreate the problem, and to do so it would help to know your version of IE. To find out, go to 'help' -> 'about'. If its IE 7 im not sure where the menu is, but you should be able to find it. I'm thinking it is probably an issue in IE 7 but not in IE 6 - as in I think the script is broken, and you have found a bug, but I cannot be sure until I can do more testing. --TheJosh (talk) 13:45, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Good morning Jacob, how's it going? :) Letter 7 (talk) 12:25, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: User:Domneez

Lol, It's not your fault for his actions...but thanks for reverting and stuff. Oh and by the way tell him that I'm not really a nerd, but Wikipedia is a hobby where I have to be discreet about my personallity. Letter 7 (talk) 15:25, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah pretty much...How about you? Letter 7 (talk) 15:29, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

O_O !!! Jesus!!! GET WELL SOON... =( not to be nosy but...but...what is it?

Well, I certainly hope it's nothing...take care of yourself in the meantime. =) Letter 7 (talk) 17:52, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Ugh, hate to hear the bad news...

Pretty good, just the regulars...editing, reverting, improving...haven't had alot of time lately...might take a Wikibreak here soon...

Alrighty, bye! Letter 7 (talk) 18:17, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Background colour

Not quite sure, it might be best to look at the source of the pages you're talking about to see, but perhaps try

This should make the background red

You could also try it with table code

{| style="border: 1px solid red; background-color: #FFD; text-align: left; padding: 5px; font-size:9pt;"
|This table should have a background colour
|}

This table should have a background colour

Hope this helps, xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 17:19, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Dunno, guess make it all cool and stuff like urs :) Letter 7 (talk) 18:20, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

can you answer my question?

Can you please go to my talk page right now? I need you to answer one of my question on my talk page!--Spittlespat (talk) 21:29, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Template

Is it a single/personal-use template, or something that others might have use of? If it's just for yourself, just create it somewhere in your userpage space, then you can subst it or transclude it when you need it (i.e. User:Xeno/welcome). If it's something everyone might use, then create it at Template:whatever it should be called. xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 16:53, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

(P.S. I found what you're referring to, if you look at the welcome thing I linked above, you can see how to trick it into encoding your signature). xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 17:00, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: RFA

Thanks for that. Just keep an eye on WP:RFA or my userpage. xenocidic ( talk ¿ review ) 18:09, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Signature

OMG...that was dumb...thanks for telling me!(and yeah I think the colors are great) - Letter 7 (Talk to me) 02:16, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Okay Thanks, I'll keep that in mind... - Letter 7 (Talk to me) 20:31, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Userpage colors

Hey! Titoxd made mine. Later, I created a template of sorts that you can copy, paste into your own userpage, and edit to your heart's content. The link is here--to copy it, edit it, copy and paste the part under the intro text I wrote at the top. If you need more detailed help implementing it or whatever, let me know, I'm always happy to help. :) Cheers!--ViolinGirl^♪ 23:30, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I edited your sandbox according to the specifications you indicated on my talk page (at least, to the best of my ability). Is that basically what you were looking for? If you want to see what I did to change it, you can see the revision history. For future reference, your problem was in specifying colors by name instead of HTML number (which you can learn more about here. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like changed or need help on. ^_^--ViolinGirl^♪ 19:45, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Help page patrol

Hi Jacob696. As you're listed listed on Wikipedia:Help Page Patrol, I thought you might be interested in a discussion regarding the use of the {{resolved}} template. Editors have argued that it slows the loading time down through the use of graphics in particular, and also it is sometimes incorrectly placed, leaving some editors with an incomplete or incorrect response. Please express your thoughts at Wikipedia talk:Help desk#Recent constant use of the resolved template. Thanks, and keep up the good work. PeterSymonds (talk) 17:14, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Infobox user colour

Hi Jacob, which infobox would that be? Cheers, PeterSymonds (talk) 17:57, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, I see. Unfortunately I can't see an obvious solution, so I suggest getting in touch with RyRy5 (talk · contribs), who specialises in userpage design. Sorry not to be of much help! Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 18:12, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Jacobs. I've replied on User talk:PeterSymonds. --RyRy5 (talk) 23:46, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Um, I don't think I can change the backround color of the infobox. I'm experienced in user pages, not much with infoboxes. Sorry, RyRy5 (talk) 18:04, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

As far as I can see, there's no parameter to change the background colour. You could consider substing the infobox user into a subpage of your userpage and tweaking it directly (I showed you above how to change the background of a table, and the infobox uses tables), but I've also dropped a request for this paramater here. xenocidic ( talk ¿ listen ) 15:33, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Linguistic review

Hi Jacob. Thank you for the star - I'm trying to do my best.
This is to remind you to do the linguistic review on the Klaus Ebner article. Thank you very much, this help is highly appreciated by non-native speakers like me. --Irina Walter (talk) 21:26, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Ebner's parents

Hi Jacob. Why did you delete the life dates of Klaus Ebner's parents? Is there some rule I don't know? However, in the article about Franz Kafka the dates of his parents are included. Greetings --Irina Walter (talk) 20:03, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

BTW, in my opinion it is important to know that his father has already died. I believe that a story like Widerspruch wouldn't have been published if his father were still alive. --Irina Walter (talk) 20:06, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi

Hey, Jacob696. I appreciate your offer, but upon reflection I've decided a userpage would be slightly extraneous for the minimal editing that I do. Thanks anyway. Later days - Lordofmodesty (talk) 22:22, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

adoption?

No why? Are you adopted what's so good about being adopted?--Spittlespat (talk) 01:13, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

RFA Thanks

Jacob, I just wanted to thank you for your thoughtful comment at my RFA, and for dropping by my talk page to congratulate me. you may also find my in-depth RFA analysis interesting (and feel free to comment). some templated thank-spam is available for you below. as always, if I can be of any assistance, you know where to find me =) cheers, xenocidic (talk) 23:05, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

templated rfa thank-spam

Thank you for your support

I would like to thank the community for placing their trust in me during my recent request for adminship, which passed 72 13 2 . Rest assured, I have read each comment thoroughly and will be addressing the various concerns raised as I step cautiously into my new role as janitor. In particular, I would like to thank Balloonman for putting so much time into reviewing my contributions and writing such a thoughtful nomination statement after knowing me for only a brief period of time (and for convincing me that I was ready to take up the mop now, rather than go through admin coaching).

To my fellow admins - please let me know right away if I ever take any mis-steps with my new tools. Should I make a mistake, and you reverse the action, I will not consider it to be wheel-warring (but please tell me so I can understand what I did wrong).

To everyone - please feel free to slap me around a bit if I ever lose sight of the core philosophy of Wikipedia as I understand it - the advancement of knowledge through the processes of mutual understanding and respect. As always, feel free to drop by my talk page if I can be of any assistance. =)

Sincerely,

~xenocidic, 01:04, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
