Parse error
[edit]How do I find out how to fix my math "failed to parse (syntax error)"? --Pring 18:18, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
- Hi there. I had a look at your parse error. There are two ways to write it:
- <math>L = \frac{(N^2 - N)}{2}</math> produces this:
- ''L'' = (''N''<sup>2</sup> - ''N'')/2 produces this: L = (N2 - N)/2
- The first method is using latex code, the other is simply html. When putting the <math> and </math> tags on, it means everything inside those tags has to be latex code. That's why you were having a parse error, because inside the tags you had html instead of latex. Wikipedia:Manual of Style (mathematics) gives more info on writing maths equations, and Help:Formula gives help on writing latex code in particular. I hope that helps. - Akamad 19:57, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
User:Killer Queen09
[edit]It's alright, really it was my fault for writing an article about myself on an encyclopedia. See ya! User:Killer Queen09
User:Pring
[edit]Thanks for the info about uploading. I was able to format a list but ==heading== stayed that way rather than producing a bold heading.
--Pring 18:15, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
- You're welcome. I had a look at the formatting of the page. To create the headings, delete the period at the end of the ==heading== text. I've changed one of them to show you what I mean. - Akamad 21:12, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
Logging in & out
[edit]Hi,
- Just a quick question. Do you routinely log out of Wikipedia if you're going to be away - say overnight or for a large part of the day. In other words, is it better to stay logged-on all of the time? Michael David 04:52, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- I must say, that I'm not particularly sure what you mean by this question, but I'll try my best to answer it. I don't usually log off Wikipedia because I pretty much only use it at home, so there is no privacy/security issues to worry about. So when I finish doing whatever I'm doing on Wikipedia, I simply close the browser without logging off. Is this what you meant? - Akamad 10:02, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
Logging
[edit]Thanks, you pretty much answereed the question for me. My office is in my home, and my computer is in another room, so I don't really have a security problem. I have been routinely logging-off each night when I'm finished using it. So, if the main reason for logging-off is security I'll just stay logged-on all of the time.
Thanks, as always, for your help. Be Healthy. Michael David 12:12, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- You're welcome, as always. - Akamad 11:02, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit]Thanks for moving the text I wrote at User:Sailing-home to User talk:Sailing-home. I must have been half-asleep! Warofdreams talk 11:57, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Philip Leslie Graham article
[edit]Hi,
- It was bound to happen. I have serious problems with some of the text in the Philip Leslie Graham article; particularly pertaining to his mental health & cause of suicide issues. Do I simply change the existing text, or does it require a discussion first with the original writer of the article? Thanks. Michael David 23:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Hi there. Firstly, let me apologise for taking until today to reply, I didn't notice your message until just then, I don't know how that happened. As for your question, I suggest you be bold and edit the article. But it might also be a good idea to leave a note on the talk page explaining why you did so. - Akamad 22:25, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks!
[edit]I'd like to thank you for having the time to comment on my page! Most Wikipedians don't do that, and so thanks are in order for you doing so.

Special:Emailuser
[edit]- Copied from Wikipedia:Help Desk
Is there a way I can email myself to test the function out? When I try it, an error message appears. -- King of Hearts | (talk) 01:09, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- It seems you have not specified an email address in "my preferences". - Akamad 01:17, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- I have an email in "my preferences". -- King of Hearts | (talk) 04:49, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
- When you try to email yourself, does it work? -- King of Hearts | (talk) 04:51, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
- Hi. I sent one to myself and it worked. In "My Preferences" there is a check box titled "Enable e-mail from other users" next to the "change password" fields, on the "user profile" tab. Has that been ticked off? - Akamad 06:37, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, that's the problem. Now I've fixed it, thanks! -- King of Hearts | (talk) 23:49, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Graham, again
[edit]Hi,
- Thanks for your response. I did finally edit it. The reason I edited it as I did was to make it more clinically objective; many of the terms and phrases used to describe his condition & treatment were not.
- I would like to put this explanation on the Graham Talk Page, but I don't think it has one. How do I create one? Michael David 22:53, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
- Simply click on the "discussion" tab and edit, this will create the page. - Akamad 23:06, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
External links
[edit]Help!
- I'm stuck. I'm trying to figure out how to add an External Link to an article. I have read the instructions, but somhow can't make it work. I even went to an existing article with links and tried to copy it, but it didn't work. Can you help me? Michael David 23:12, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
- Hi. As you would know, there are two types of links in Wikipedia, internal and external. External links are made using one set of square brackets:
- [http://www.google.com] will produce text that looks like: [1]
- [http://www.google.com Google homepage] will produce text that looks like: Google homepage. The key thing there is the space after the url, this space ensures that the text following the space is shown on the page, but it will still link to the url.
- When creating external links at the bottom of the page, the second method is used. So the syntax is basically: [url_of_site short description of site]. There is also a link just above the edit box for creating external links (it's got a small picture of a globe). I hope this helps. If it still doesn't work, create the external link that you want to create either on this talk page or mine, and I'll (hopefully be able to) fix it up for you. - Akamad 08:26, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
It Works!!
[edit]Hi,
- We did it and it works. Thanks for your help. Incidently, the article we linked is Adolphe d'Ennery. Try it. Michael David 13:39, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Editing
[edit]Hello again,
- Every once in a while I'll run across an article I want to edit, but, when I attempt to do so, it won't let me. When I strike a key it either shifts the curser to the box at the bottom, or I simply get a beep from my computer and the cursor doesn't move at all. Can you help me here? Michael David 00:12, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
- Is it possible that you are trying to edit a protected page? If not, I can't think of any other reasons except it could a a problem with your computer. What pages in particular are you having this trouble with? Is it always the same pages? - Akamad 13:38, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
Edits
[edit]Hi,
- Thanks for your response. I was trying to add quotes to the Stephen King & Malcolm X articles. I just tried again, and I still wasn't able to edit. They are both pretty long; could that be it? See if it will let you edit. Michael David 13:49, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
- I have no problems editing them. If you think the size of the articles could be doing it, use the "edit" links on the right hand side of the headings which will let your edit only that section. - Akamad 14:04, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
It worked!!
[edit]It worked. I took your suggestion of editing the particular section. Check them out. Thanks, as always, for your help. I may get the hang of this terrific resource yet. Michael David 14:36, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
Your welcome message
[edit]You sent me a welcome message with some suggestions. Does that mean I did something wrong somewhere that you didn't like? BoyliciousDarian 09:13, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
- No no, not at all. You are doing great work. The suggestions I provided are generic tips to help new users. Like I said, you are doing great work, keep it up! And you seem to be interested in countering vandalism. Perhaps you'll be interested in Wikipedia:Cleaning up vandalism. - Akamad 09:34, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
Image stuff
[edit]OK great I put the copyright, but how do I put the source? Is there a code for that or should I just write a short paragraph? It's from a website, authorised from the owner. The image promotional material usable freely. many thanks. -Nanoflop 00:22, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
- In the summary section, simply put the url, stating something along the lines of: "image obtained from url". That's all that is needed. - Akamad 01:22, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Hey there
[edit]Akamad, thanks for pointing that out, should be good now. It was my first article, hope it doesn't suck too bad. Cya, Wangster 07:30, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
I just discovered the test is international, in fact there are 2 test centers in Australia :) Wangster 07:33, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
- It's actually very good first article. Keep up the great work! And I had no idea there was such a thing as the SSAT in Australia, definately proves that you learn something new everyday on Wikipedia! - Akamad 07:35, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit]Hello Akamad,
thanks for your nice welcome note!
I still have trouble editing my user page. I´ve seen some boxes on user pages, with fun things like: "this user supports Manchester United" for example. Do you know how and where I can get these boxes? I hope you know what I´m talking about, since I don´t know better words to describe them...
Sorry I can´t sign this message properly, since I don´t have this wavy line symbol on my keyboard.
Thanks again!
Monoblonde
- Hi. Those boxes you describes are called userboxes. Have a look at the Wikipedia:Userboxes page, it lists all the different types of userboxes you can have, and how to craete your own. It also shows you one method of displaying them on your userpage. I'm suprised you don't have a tilde key (wavy line symbol) on your keyboard. This image shows you where it is on most keyboards: http://healthlinks.washington.edu/howto/navigating/tilde.gif. If you have anymore questions, you know where to find me. - Akamad 23:22, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
RE: Canute IV of Denmark
[edit]Thanks for showing your magnanimous efforts on NPOV, in that article as well in consideration of the Maryland issue on my talk page. It's very mature of you. I hope nobody gives you a hard time here. 68.110.9.62 22:06, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Uploading
[edit]Hi, Akamad.
I wrote a section on Word in order to have spell-check, etc., then saved it in HTML and pasted it into my article. It appears in a box, not word-wrapped. It's in "Intimate Communities."
How do I fix it--or is there a better way to do it?
--Pring 18:15, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
- Replied on user's talk page. - Akamad 20:01, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks, the box is gone. --Pring 17:49, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
Discussion of Criteria
[edit]Thanks for your message. Here is the situation: I have proposed the article "Shane Filan" to be deleted. I have checked the votes and it seems this article is good to stay. I have no dispute with that, but one of the votes said that there were 69,000 Google hits on "Shane Filan" and that I should always Google something before proposing deletion. Not a bad idea, per se, but I wonder if just because Google has a large number of hits on something it is therefore worthy of an article. Trouble is, no matter how I write the above paragraph, it would seem defensive and antagonistic t the person who voted to keep the article, and I have no desire to create bad feelings. So I wanted to take the question and move it to a neutral place, and have it just as a general discussion.
Thanks for your help! --rhmoore 09:34, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- The idea of notability for individuals can be rather subjective. That's why there are guideline pages dedicated to them: Wikipedia:Notability (people), and a detailed one for musicians: Wikipedia:Notability (music). Many users do use the Google test when determining the notability of a subject. You might want to look at this page: Wikipedia:Search engine test. I haven't read it myself, but it seems to give a general overview of how and when to apply the Google test, and also its shortcomings. - Akamad 11:00, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks, I'll read that and go over the guideline pages again as well. --rhmoore 12:48, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Answering questions on the Newcomers help page
[edit]Hi Akamad,
I've noticed you've been really active answering questions on the Newcomers help page, which is awesome. It would be great if when you answer a question on a user's page, you also answer it on the original post. That way, anyone who comes by and has the same question will be able to see the answer right there (see Wikipedia:Newcomers help page/How to answer for more information). Thanks, -- Natalya 18:27, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the advice. I'll do it from now on. :-) Akamad 21:24, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
Is there a way to get in touch with u not on a public viewed page?

- I have sent you an email. - Akamad 22:02, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks so much for your help!
[edit]Thanks for your explanation on how to create a userbox!
I was actually at the "bootcamp" chat room, and the so-called "authorities" told me that they won't help me make my own because they don't approve of userboxes as they find them "divisive". I couldn't disagree more. I find them a quick and convenient way to express your interests, political persuasions etc...all in the spirit of free speach. I can understand that the actual Wikipedia ARTICLES should be as professional and NPOV as possible, but when it comes to userpages and talk pages I see them as a great opportunity to have civilized debate with people all over the world with opposing views.
I actually need a bit more help with two other issues:
1) Where it says that I'm a Montreal Canadiens fan, I'd like to have the Canadiens logo in the spot where there's simply the letters "MTL"
2) Also, my userboxes always seem to be aligned in a sloppy, haphazard way, why is this? How can I have them arranged more neatly?
Thanks again! Loomis51 22:42, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
- Hi. Sorry about the late reply, but I've been kind of busy. I had a go with formatting your userpage userboxes, I hope you that's what you wanted. Have a look at the code to see what I did. Basically I used the {{boxboxtop||left}} tag. You can put a heading for the box by putting in an argument for the middle parameter: {{boxboxtop|heading of sorts|left}}.
- I also changed the image for the Montreal Canadiens. I hope you like it. Akamad 22:10, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks again...but...
[edit]I really appreciate you helping me with my user page and so I feel a bit guilty about asking for more help, but it seems that your editions have caused a problem with the "Babel" box. There seems to be one big blank space where english and french used to be.
I understand if you're busy, and to be honest, I don't really understand why you'd be so generous with your time...but I appreciate it! In any case, there's no rush...but if you get the chance to look at my page it would be great if I could get the Babel box back to normal.
Thanks again! Loomis51 23:48, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
- Hi there! I had another go at fixing up your userpage. Hopefully it's what you wanted. And to answer your query, I enjoy helping others, so don't hesitate to ask me any questions, I am more than willing to help out. - Akamad 05:39, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
Question about Images
[edit]Hi, I was wondering if you could give me advice on the use of images in wikipedia as I'm a little confused about the wording of the GNU agreement. Basically I'd like to illustrate an essay with a picture of some pigeon colour morphs. I'm guessing it's acceptable under the rules but I'd thought I'd check and be safe. Cheers. Jefffire 17:59, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
- This would depend on where you got the image. For example, if you took it (or made them) yourself, then you can use it. Most images downloaded from the web cannot be used, since they are most likely copyrighted. If an image is copyrighted it can be used under the fair use clause. As a rule of thumb, the following classify as fair use (I got the list from Wikipedia:Fair use):
- Cover art. Cover art from various items, for identification and critical commentary (not for identification without critical commentary).
- Team and corporate logos. For identification. See Wikipedia:Logos.
- Stamps and currency. For identification.
- Other promotional material. Posters, programs, billboards, ads. For critical commentary.
- Film and television screen shots. For critical commentary and discussion of the cinema and television.
- Screen shots from software products. For critical commentary.
- Paintings and other works of visual art. For critical commentary, including images illustrative of a particular technique or school.
- Publicity photos. For identification and critical commentary. See Wikipedia:Publicity photos.
- So, if you obtained the image from the web, it seems unlikely that it would classify as fair use, since the subject matter doesn't appear to fall into any of these categories.
- Have you looked at the Wikipedia:Image use policy page. It provides plenty of info. Plus the Wikipedia:Fair use page is also good. Hopefully this helps, if not, feel free to say so and I'll try to provide you with more info. - Akamad 22:14, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
External link
[edit]In my See also section of Pring/size shouldn't numbered links be used insead of the long urls? Adding square brackets set off by a space didn't do the job.
--Pring 18:07, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
- To get numbered external links, simply put one set of square brackets around them, for example:
- [http://www.google.com] will produce text that looks like: [2]
- [http://www.google.com Google homepage] will produce text that looks like: Google homepage. The key thing there is the space after the url, this space ensures that the text following the space is shown on the page, but it will still link to the url.
- Hope this helps. - Akamad 21:56, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
One more thank you
[edit]Thanks, my userpage is now exactly how I wanted it. You say you enjoy helping people...there should be more people like you around. Thanks again. Loomis51 23:17, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you and one more question
[edit]Hi Akamad,
Thank you very much for your comments on editing my page mobile asset management. I am still having issues with external links (both are to the TrenStar website where a report and further information can be retrieved).
How do I create external links to www.trenstar.com and also to the RFID report on trenstar.com?
Very sorry to bother you with this again and thank you in advance for your help.
Lsmullen 16:17, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- I created an external links category in the Mobile asset management article. This is the standard way to link to external sites (see Wikipedia:External links for more info). Having a look at how you did the external links, you had the right idea with the code, you just had an extra set of square brackets (only one pair are needed for external links). I hope this helps, if not, don't hesitate to ask me any questions. - Akamad 08:25, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

- When you add that tag to a page, it will be listed on this page: Category:Candidates for speedy deletion, admins will routinely come to that page and delete listed items (there is currently a backlog there!) - Akamad 03:55, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
RfC on RPJ
[edit]Hi. I'm advocating a case on behalf of a user who is experiencing numerous problems with RPJ. I can see from RPJ's talk page that you have interacted with him in the past. If you have a moment, would you be so kind as to head over to the RfC page and leave any guidance that might help in resolving this dispute. Thanks so much, and have a great day! →Bobby← 15:43, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
Van Morrison
[edit]How do I add Van Morrison's name to the Officers of the Order of the British Empire under Category? I was able to add it to the list of celebrities but not the main list. Or you can do it if you want, that might be easier than telling me how. There is plenty of verification that he received the award on June 15, 1996. Agadant 22:51, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
- I added Van to the category. Just to let you know, to do so, I put the line [[Category:Officers of the Order of the British Empire]] at the bottom of the page. All the best. - Akamad 07:15, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
hey
[edit]yeah its tish. nice work
A request for assistance
[edit]Would you support the concept of moving the Earhart "myths" to a separate page or article? The reason for my suggesting this is that the main article should be an accurate and scholarly work while the speculation and conspiracy theories surrounding the disappearance of Amelia Earhart are interesting, they belong in a unique section. Most researchers, as you know, discount the many theories and speculation that has arisen in the years following her last flight. Go onto the Earhart discussion page and register your vote/comments...and a Happy New Year to you as well. Bzuk 05:02 3 January 2007 (UTC).
