User talk:Phaedriel/Archive 4

Would love to talk to you about my dept. please e mail me at mjones@vcp.state.va.us Thanks, Mike Jones

Hello again...

I noticed you commented about the Bigfoot article over at Walter's page...it is an interesting read, but the article needs help for sure. The primary problem is Beckjord who is the same person as Erik Beckjord. He now has arbitration against him due to his personal attacks and insistence that the article must also discuss his beliefs that Bigfoot travels through Wormholes and/or is associated with UFO's...a rather bizarre notion to say the least. I actually like the guy and am under the impression that he may be mentally handicapped so it gives me absolutely no pleasure being involved in arbitration against him...it is my first arbitration that I have worked on and I'll be glad when it's over. Anyway, if you want to read it, it's kinda interesting, but don't let Beckjord ruin your day...it would be best for you if you just kind of watched, but don't think I am trying to prohibit your contributions, just trying to be protective of you, that's all. Also, in case you didn't notice, I did thank you for the wikibirthday cake and song...it was most kind.--MONGO 00:58, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Userpage design?

Hey ^_^ I was wondering if you could help me design my userpage? It's sort of a random mess right now =) Deckiller 01:08, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you're not interested, it's okay, but help would be cool :D Deckiller 21:19, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If possible, could we discuss some of my ideas via IM? Or I can just make a list later tonight. My IM = SonOfYoungwood (AOL/AIM). Deckiller 03:26, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

N/M, I have some ideas ^_^. I'm thinking about another seperate page for contributions. If that's the case, I'd really like my userpage to have colors and borders similar to Journalist's. I'd like my babel stuff, userboxes (I'll trim the number down), Wdefcon, and basic information on a column, with the rest of the info in the main part. I'd like a minibox at the top for navigation ^_^. Many thanks for the help! Deckiller 03:52, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I also like the one you just did. Deckiller 22:34, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your welcome! Deckiller 22:41, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yet Another Award!

Here's an award for you Sharon, sorry it messes up your style sheet a bit but I'm sure you'll fix that! --kingboyk 19:28, 28 January 2006 (UTC

Admin

You're not an admin, are you? Remind me to nominate you once you have been here for three months. I'd be honoured to :-) Latinus 00:17, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we'll see ;-) If you ever think you'd like a nomination, you'll know what to do (just drop me a line saying that it's time for the offer to take effect). To answer your probing question, although I do enjoy my anonymity :-P I will tell you that I'm half Greek and half English. BTW I'll also have to change that "I'm from planet Earth" line - it sounds too geeky. Latinus 00:40, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd also like to nominate you, but I'm afraid Latinus spoke out on the idea before me. ;) —Nightstallion (?) 10:47, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Me too! :) Banez 16:55, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sharon, you're very nearly at 3 months, and you have many people willing to nominate you. I wouldn't be the best to nominate as I'm not an admin myself, but I would give you my strongest support. How would you feel about the enduring fame and possible fortune that would result from being the first person to run for adminship under the new procedure? --kingboyk 04:22, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sigh. I shouldn't edit late at night. It's 2 months. You'd be eligible but there are a few sticklers who won't support anyone with less than 3 months service. Guess I'll see you in a month. Sorry! --kingboyk 04:24, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Embarrassingly late thanks

Thanks for redesigning my userpage, it was in desperate need of it. Sorry I couldn't send this to you earlier, but I've had an injured left thumb, been out of town for a few days, et cetera. But your work is much appreciated. Thanks, Werdna648^T/_C\^@ 11:03, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Phaedriel

I can't tell you how precious your friendship, kind words, and lovely token are. Here are some flowers to brighten up your already beautiful page. (Sorry, I couldn't decide on just one!)

Take care! :) 您的朋友, Sango 123 (talk) 16:33, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is so incredibly beautiful! I have no words... I'll pick my personal favorite for my user page =) Thank you, Sango! - Phædriel ♥ ^{tell me} - 00:12, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tee hee

*blush and giggle*, Thank you! — Moe ε 23:56, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, actually what I am depressed about is actually a real-life friend of mine which I hope would become more than just a friend. But it turns out, I'm to chicken to find out! lol. Anyways, Thanks for cheering me up! — Moe ε 00:10, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's the effect Phaedriel has on people. That's why I'm giving her another barnstar. Latinus 00:13, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Esperanza/User Page Award

Hey Phaedriel! I was wondering if you'd like to take a look at this new program That Rune.welsh, Banes and myself have created. Since you do make great contributions to user pages, I was wondering if you'd like to nominate your user page or maybe an user page that you think is especially good. :-D You might want to check out this Guidelines link as well for additional information. KnowledgeOf Self | talk 00:18, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Hi there

Well... Regarding colors, I don't know. I'd like something without so many colors. And the colorse should be a little transparent. For content, see my userpage at Romanian Wikipedia. --Romihaitza 13:24, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

Hey Phaedriel/ViolinGirl, I just wanted to say that, in looking through Esperanza news, I stumbled upon the User Page contest and, seeing your page, was definitely impressed. Not only is it beautiful, but I think your personality shows through. Of course, I really don't know you that well, but it's just a feeling. I look forward to working with you here. - ElAmericano | talk 14:39, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wait, I'm confused. Do you have anything to do with ViolinGirl? It seems like your pages redirected to each other, but now they appear separate. Am I losing my mind? - ElAmericano | talk 17:02, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the confusion. Your page and ViolinGirl's were cross-linking or something. - ElAmericano | talk 01:12, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'll do my best...

Yes ma'am. What can I do for you? KnowledgeOf Self | talk 20:57, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have sent you an email :-D KnowledgeOf Self | talk 21:25, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did you get my email? KnowledgeOf Self | talk 21:44, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

True indeed I have sent you an other email! KnowledgeOf Self | talk 22:29, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You voted for Male and Female, this week's Collaborations of the week. Please come and help them become featured-standard articles. -- King of Hearts | (talk) 23:19, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Moe Epsilon

Moe Epsilon just withdrew his nomination and left Wikipedia. Thought you might like to know. KI 23:40, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just got your message, please see my user page later for a full response. But, I will take into consideration your comments. Thanks. — Moe ε 00:02, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

So much for the award, and the kind words which accompanied it. Thank you for everything, Phaedriel. All the best Banez 06:51, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Darn it!

I was just about to nominate Babajobu, when I got there and realised you beat me! Ah well... smurrayinchester^{(User), (Talk)} 19:08, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there....

Congratulations, Phaedriel/Archive 4! Your user page has been nominated for the Esperanza User Page Award! Five judges will look over your user page and award it 1-10 points in four categories:

Attractiveness: general layout, considering colour scheme and/or use of tables if applicable
Usefulness: links to subpages or editing aids, helpful information
Interesting-ness: quirky, unique, captivating, or funny content
General niceness: at the judges' discretion

But first, you must be chosen as a finalist. If your user page is chosen as one of the five finalists, you'll have the chance to win an award created just for having a great user page!

More information can be found on this page.

KnowledgeOf Self | talk 19:48, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thanks for the nomination for the User Page Award, but I must respectully decline it. I know that I have a few problems with my page that I want to fix, so I'll do that before I actually accept my page to be graded. But thanks for the offer! Tito xd^{(?!? - help us)} 21:23, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

I picked this flower for you, but it died before you got it. :-(

Hi Phaedriel, I just wanted to thank you again for your kind words yesterday. I can't believe how many people showed up on my talk page to say goodbye. I just didn't think anyone cared about me leaving. But I guess you proved me wrong, people actually do care. Theres actually one user that quit because I did. For that, I am seriously rethinking my position and may return. I don't think RFA is nearly as important as contributing to Wikipedia itself. You are one the most kind Wikipedians I have ever met.
But don't tell that to my other Wikipedian friends! :-) — Moe ε 02:37, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

More thanks for Phaedriel!

Thank you so much Phaedriel for, well, everything! Specifically in this case for all the support you gave me during my RfA. It really means a lot to me. If I can ever be of assistance, please do not hesitate. All the best Banez 17:59, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A pretty picture for you. Banez 17:22, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

I saw your vote for user:Bbatsell and your Sooner comment made me look at your user page since I'm in northwest TX. It looks like we are almost the same age, and have some similar interests. I spent a good deal of time last summer in the Lawton, OK area doing research on the area history, Ft. Sill and Quanah Parker for my teaching degree. We also met with Comanche artists in the area and I so enjoyed learning about the culture. The pictures on the Medicine Park, OK article are just some from my trip, I also just took my first trip to OK City this winter. Glad to learn about you from your gorgeous use page (mine sucks), hope to see you around!Pschemp | Talk 00:15, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be happy to help with your new project any way I can. I'm not an expert though, my interest is probably deeper than my knowledge. :) I'd like to ask you to help with with my userpage too. *jumps on the bandwagon*! I'm pretty much code illiterate, so mine is a mess. I wouldn't care how you organized it - it just need help. Oh, and I like green. *hint* psch e mp | talk 01:03, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm in no rush...Don't put a bit of pressure on yourself to get it done. Seriously, my page has a long and proud history of crappiness, so it can stay that way for a while :)psch e mp | talk 03:46, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Enjoy it

Enjoy your "break" they can be rather relaxing lol. KnowledgeOf Self | talk 01:33, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Beautiful

Your grandfather must have been an inspiration in real life: a grain of kindness is all it takes to turn thorns into flowers... - Thank you for sharing that story on Wikipedia :-) --HappyCamper 03:11, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow

Great picture... ever considered placing it in Wikipedia:Facebook? ~ Cheers —This user has left wikipedia 10:17 2006-02-02

I think that either picture would be equally refreshing. That's your pick =D Thanks for voting for Quarl's RfA by the way. ~ Cheers —This user has left wikipedia 14:28 2006-02-02

A request

Hi there Phaedriel! Enjoying your semi-break? Sorry to bother you, but in my 9th archive there are two new barnstars. I am absolutely terrible at this, could you please add them to my page for me? No hurry, but I'd really appreciate if you get on to it sometime. All the best Banez 21:05, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, Phaedirel...I couldn't help myself, and I did it myself. Kind of WikiBored, so I was eavesdropping, etc...hope you don't mind? ;) --ViolinGirl^♪ 01:06, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, VG. Sango beat you to it. [1] (She eavesdrops too!) :D Sango 123 (talk) 01:20, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Ahh... wikilove. Thank you for that. Your efforts with my userpage are trickling through. My "poetry" section is all stolen ideas of yours.
brenneman ^(t)^(c) 23:54, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RfA Thanks!

Okay, this is perhaps a bit overdue, but thank-you for your support in my recent RfA! I passed with a final ~~vote count~~ consensus of (82/1/0), which was a lot of support that I really appreciate. I'll try to live up to the expectations; and on that note, if there's ever something I do wrong (or don't do right), please spit in my general direction. Cheers! --P e ruvianLlama^(spit) 05:30, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Minor Tweak

Hi Sharon. I've added a table containing some country flags to my user page. It doesn't look right with a white background. I'm thinking maybe it should have the same background as the rest of the page, or a different colour all together. Any chance you could tweak it please? :-) Thanks in advance --kingboyk 07:11, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've left a reply on my talk page. Catch you later Ms K! --kingboyk 04:47, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hola

Estaba pensando, y yo creo que debo darte una otra estrella porque eres tan cariñosa y amistosa, y la mereces.

Adios, amiga. ε γκυκλοπαίδεια* 23:56, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My problem

Hi Phaedriel, I think I have finally correctly identified my problem. I think it's called "love". LOL. My "idea" I previously mentioned on my user page is to, on Valentine's Day, trick her to going on Wikipedia and see the little message I'm going to post on my user page. I can't wait! You are the person who gave me the idea when you left me the picture of the heart on my talk page. I never thanked you for that...so Thank you! Talk to you later! — Moe ε 01:04, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Dear Phaedriel,

I forget how I came across your brief anecdote about your grandfather, but I noticed it because that day I was looking for some inspiration - and of all things - an idea to help with dispute resolution on Wikipedia. Thank you for your generous comments, and for the lovely rose. I think it's about time I put some more colour on my user page? Thanks for putting a smile on my face - indeed, the spirit of kindness is wonderful! Best regards, HappyCamper 04:26, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
