Re:Adoption

Yes, I would be willing to adopt you. Note that I don't really have any sort of "lesson plan" or any other kind of plan for that matter. Basically, if you have any questions about editing or Wikipedia, I have experience in just about everything. If I don't know the answer, I will know somewhere that I can direct you to find people that do have the answer. I am also an administrator so I can answer any questions about that as well.

Signs at the top of pages?

{{helpme}} What are those signs at the top of some pages? ones about a nutshell.

If you're talking about policy pages, such as this one, the nutshell box attempts to summarize the policy in a few sentences. henrik•talk 21:37, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(ec)Hi Dillio411, wasn't your question satisfactorily answered? Please rephrase your question because I don't quite understand what else you want to know. - TwoOars (Rev) 21:39, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Contributing

I notice that you seem to be making lots of edits, which is good. However, Wikipedia is above all else an encyclopedia. You have only 1 edit to an encyclopedia article (besides 2 edits to a deleted one). If you are looking for a way to contribute to articles, you may want to look into WikiProjects or cleanup work. Also, I see you asked some questions above - feel free to ask me questions on my talk page as well. Mr.Z-man 00:06, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Font?

Hi! Do you mean like this? You can use the following code for that:

<span style="color: green; font-family:courier"> Do you mean like this? </span>

I think you should be able to figure it out from that :-) Stwalkerster talk 15:51, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's often considered impolite to remove someone's comments without responding to them. In any case you can do whatever you want.

What links here returns a list of pages which link back to the given page (e.g., Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Helpme would return a list of user talk pages which contain {{helpme}} or Template:Helpme somewhere in the source). —[[Animum | talk]] 00:25, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Encyclopedia

Hi. Please remember that this is an encyclopedia, not a social networking site. So try and spend some time helping the encyclopedia and less time with userpages, hidden barnstar games, etc. -- John Reaves 03:07, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:123456789.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:123456789.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 18:36, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Renovate

Sure, I can help you with your page. The first thing I need to know are the sort of changes would you like to make. Please reply with your ideas and I'll get started as soon as I can. Thanks. STORMTRACKER 94 19:42, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I revamped your page as you said. If there's anything else you want, just leave me a message. Thanks. STORMTRACKER 94 20:15, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Category:Dillio411's secret

A tag has been placed on Category:Dillio411's secret, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per speedy deletion criterion G1.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. — Dorftrottel⁠ 23:17, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just a friendly note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia project. Besides, there are no "secret" pages on Wikipedia. Try e.g. {{special:prefixindex/user:Dillio411}}, which results in:

Image copyright problem with Image:JRBop.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:JRBop.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 16:30, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

NowCommons: File:Barnstar-rotating2.gif

File:Barnstar-rotating2.gif is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:Tireless Contributor Barnstar.gif. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:Tireless Contributor Barnstar.gif]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 18:50, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:JRBop.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:JRBop.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 22:31, 1 May 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 22:31, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

List of YouTubers

The List of YouTubers is being nominated for deletion again. I don't know why. It's been nominated so many damn times. Take a look here. Mr. C.C.^{Hey yo!}_{I didn't do it!} 00:57, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of File:Missing barnstar crop.jpg

The file File:Missing barnstar crop.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unused, low-res, no obvious use

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:01, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
