My Barnstar?

It said that you found my secret page (I think by cheating). Why don't you have my barnstar? PS. Try to find my secret page again, it's alot harder.--RyRy5 (talk) 05:12, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't know how but you found my old barnstar and it wasn't there yestersay. I made a knew one a few days ago. I replaced the old barnstar on your barnstar page ith a new one. Can you tell me how you got the old barnstar?--RyRy5 (talk) 23:13, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

You have to go check out the indie rock band, The Cribs they are great and I saw them in concert. If you have any taste in music you will like them, jj 137.

Chances of succeeding an RfA?

Hello Jj137.
I am hoping you can give me some advice.
I was nominated for an RfA two weeks ago. I failed on the grounds that I had too little experience in non-vandalfighting areas.
Since then, I have not really changed my editing patterns. However, I have done a lot of vandal fighting since then.
This is a fairly hard-to-read text version of my wannabe kate summary at the start of my failed RfA
Here is my wannabe kate summary now.
Someone asked me today if they could nominate me for admin. I told them I would have to ask some experienced users what they thought about me trying again so soon after failing an RfA.
Based on what I have done in the interval, do you think there is any chance that I would pass an RfA? J.delanoygabsadds 16:46, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

You should probably wait. MFC (previously Ohmpandya) had a similar case here and here and, well, it didn't turn out so well.   jj137 (talk) 22:07, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Scouting Report

I finally got someone to accept my invite. If you don't remember, I hired myself to try to search for people who contributed enough to Red Sox articles, and invite them to join the Red Sox WikiProject. I invited 3 people so far. The one who accepted was Burner0718. I will continue my scouting. I just wanted to give you a notice. I will also give you a sample of a newsletter I've created in a while, just so I know I am doing it right.--RyRy5 (talk) 00:35, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Looking for somewhere to start? Here is a few suggestions.

  • You can check out topics on the main page.

Sorry to keep bugging you, but how do I get the new version of Huggle? I'm not on Gurch's list and if I was, I'd be on the "naughty" one. (you don't want to know) J.delanoygabsadds 15:30, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Scouting Report

I was going to ask for your opinion, but you just gave it to me. Is there anyway to improve it?--RyRy5 (talk) 03:20, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Well...OK. I guess I will be my own scout. It can be my own little job like it already is. The reason why I put that on there was because when I was doing my own little scouting thing, it was really fun, knowing how you have a part for the wikiproject, and I wanted everyone to feel that. I'm going to delete it in a day or two if that's OK, although, I'm going to keep the userbox I made. BTW, has anyone ever become an admin when they were at wikipedia for only 1 month, with a little more than 1000 edits? I'm planning to become an admin earlier than my normal schedule, May.--RyRy5 (talk) 03:40, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm planning to try to become an admin in May when I have over 5,000 edits. By the way, about the scouting thing, is there anyway I can keep it? I'm thinking, if more than about 5-10 people join, I may consider keeping it. What do you think?--RyRy5 (talk) 03:50, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
OK, I'm going to ask Stormtracker94 for his opinion too. BTW, did you know, about 1-2 weeks ago, I added you to my friends userbox? Look at my userboxes section on my userpage and you should see My Friends under my userboxes.--RyRy5 (talk) 03:58, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
Burner0718 was very happy with it, and you gave me an "Aah, OK then". Well, OK then.:D--RyRy5 (talk) 04:05, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Heading

I would like some help creating something. I would like to create what you did to your userpage, just the top where it says Jj137. Not the Barnstar, Admin part. I would of course want mine to say RyRy5 in blue like yours.--RyRy5 (talk) 06:27, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Scouting Section

OK. Go right ahead with your changes. Also, thanks for the top bar. I tried to do it myself by copy/paste yours onto my sandbox and just playing with it, but it didn't work. OK, the barnstar I gave you won't stay still, now it's under this message. Can you put it back to it's original position where it's says thanks for answering ?--RyRy5 (talk) 15:33, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

It took you too long so I changed it myself. Please I need your opinion on it.--RyRy5 (talk) 05:05, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Red Sox News Report

I'd like your opinion on the WP:SOX. Check out the Red Sox News Report section. If you like it, I may consider creating Wikipedia:WikiProject Boston Red Sox/News Report and the Wikipedia:WikiProject Boston Red Sox/News Report/Newsroom. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Boston Red Sox/News Report is where people can find resources of where to find Red Sox News. It will also provide something asking to find more resources for the news. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Boston Red Sox/News Report/Newsroom is where all the news is discussed and added by members. It is then edited by members of the wikiproject and is then added to the Red Sox news on the main page. like to add a certain news to the Newsletter, like if the Red Sox win the 2008 World Series or something a little less major like Manny Ramirez hitting his 500th home run. I would like to do this and I would like your opinion.Thanks. BTW, this can attract more people to join the WikiProject, knowing how well the wikiproject runs. This can also improve the wikiproject.--RyRy5 (talk) 18:07, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

I thought I should get it out of the way now instead of later.

I am not going to be as active if not inactive with editing on Wikipedia. I have other things now to keep me busy. Like a house, school, support my Red Sox =), and a girlfriend to keep me occupied. I have really enjoyed this time with you guys and value your friendship. I will still continue to check my talk page, so I'm not retiring. Of course, I'm still doing the fantasy baseball league. Feel free to ask me questions about this on my talk page.

Once again to make it clear, I WILL STILL CHECK MY TALK PAGE, SO IF YOU WANT TO TALK OR CHECK IN, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO LEAVE A MESSAGE.

Thank You! HPJoker Leave me a message 17:20, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Hello. You deleted this talk page as a CSD G8 yesterday, but the article pretty much exists and doesn't seem to have been deleted recently. I suppose this was some error, and have restored the talk page.

Scouting

Look at the newly designed mainpage. Also, I would like your opinion on the Scouting Office. If you want to join the scouting business, add your name to this list.--RyRy5 (talk) 20:19, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes it does. I just fixed it so instead it says Founder of the Scouting Business. Yours says Founder of this WikiProject. Sorry if it made you think I was the founder of the WikiProject.--RyRy5 (talk) 20:33, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
OK. BTW, why when your editing sometimes like right now, do you leave your status to offline? I have been noticing that for the last few days.--RyRy5 (talk) 20:44, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Administration?

Nothing444 is asking to nominate me to Administration. Do you think I'm ready? I have made 1910+ edits (counting deleted ones. I have 1860+ edits without the deleted ones). I have been editing at wikipedia for 1 month and 2 days. I would like your opinion ASAP.--RyRy5 talk 23:52, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. Don't forget about your scouting. Also, when did you become an admin and can I see your final votes?--RyRy5 talk 03:06, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks again. Also, if I were to run for admin right now, would you support me? I have made 1960+ edits (counting deleted ones. I have 1900+ edits without the deleted ones).--RyRy5 talk 03:16, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Welcome new Scout

Hi, and welcome to the Scouting Business! The scouts here to monitor all members of the Red Sox WikiProject. We then add any information that we find to the Scouting Report on the main page. The whole scouting business is used so everyone else can see what and how the WikiProject is doing. If you scout often and if you add numerous reports to the main page, a manager will be sure to promote you.

Looking for somewhere to start or do you have nothing to do? Here are a few things you can do:

  • Monitor member's contributions using the members list at the Scouting Office, and if you find a report, add it to the Scouting Report at the main page.
  • Invite other people to join the WikiProject by adding {{WP BOSOX INVITE}} on their talk page so that you can monitor more people.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or would like to talk about the scouting business in general, feel free to leave a message on the Office's talk page or ask the founder of the scouting business on RyRy5's talk page.

CRT edit

Hi, I'm the anonymous user who edited the Chinese Remainder Theorem page. Did you actually look at my changes before reverting them? I understand that it is helpful to provide edit summaries, but it shouldn't be necessary for a user to be either logged in or provide an edit summary --- that seems to go against the whole point/spirit of Wikipedia. Anyone who can make a helpful change should be able to make one, and other users should probably not revert them without a careful check unless they are obviously vandalism.

Help

Hey, my IP is blocked(58.65.203.8) and i want to create account. how can i do it? They are asking me to create account what shud i do?

I didn't mean to permanently remove the content. I cut it to figure out how to solve a bug i saw, i immediately put the content back. Damn you were quick, to see the change xD.
