Userbox

[edit]

Hi DarkAvenger,
Thanks for using the userbox that I created (the one about supporting environmental protection). I'm glad that there're people in the world who care about the environment just as much as I do. Please encourage your friends to put up this userbox if they have accounts in Wikipedia. Currently I am doing double major (Biology and Environment Science) at University of Toronto. If you have any questions about environmental protection, please don't hesitate to contact me by wiki.

Chech this out

[edit]

Greetings, Dark Avenger, I am a Wikipedian as interested in science as you, and I would like to inform you of an article I created about a generally unknown mathematical structure. Please check it out to confirm its validity and send me any comments.Orthologist 23:21, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Adoption

[edit]

I have been looking for someone who I can Adopt. I think that you could be the right person. If you agree, post a message on my User talk:Mahanga. MahangaTalk 18:21, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Great! You can direct your questions via the talk page or if you'd prefer, instant messenger. MahangaTalk 14:52, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

left aligned quotes

[edit]

I didn't know the answer to this question. The first thing I did, was I clicked [Edit this page] on your userpage and scrolled all the way to the bottom where it lists the templates in use. I clicked on {{cquote}} and I looked for some sort of alignment parameter. I didn't find it so I checked other quotation templates and came across {{rquote}} which had an alignment parameter.

I left one quote up to you to change from cquote to rquote. Hope that helps. MahangaTalk 17:52, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Do You Mind?

[edit]

Motto of the day

[edit]

Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 03:42, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

DYK nomination of Giant huntsman spider

[edit]

Hello! Your article Giant huntsman spider was recently nominated at Did you know to be featured on the main page. The nomination has now been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! —Politizer talk/contribs 16:33, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to get an idea of when your article is featured, I suggest keeping an eye on the queues at the bottom of the Suggestions page. When it appears in one of those queues, you can probably figure out how long to its appearance (updates are flipped every six hours). Cheers, Gatoclass (talk) 14:39, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Any chance you could populate Category:Insects of Laos or insects of south east asia with stubs? The Bald One White cat 12:45, 19 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014

[edit]
Today's motto...

Igitur qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum.
("Therefore whoever desires peace, let him prepare for war.")


Nominate one today!

Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.

Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This message has been sent by pjoef on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).
