Regarding edits to Protection Policy

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent contribution removed content from Wikipedia:Protection policy. Please be more careful when editing articles and do not remove content from Wikipedia without a good reason, which should be specified in the edit summary. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. -- _Hdt83 ^Chat 00:45, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Regarding edit to World War II

Hey, I saw that you put up a protection template here. Doing this doesn't protect the page as only admins can do that. Also you put up the wrong template because the page is only semi-protected. See WP:PROTECT for more details. Thanks. -- _Hdt83 ^Chat 00:28, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Also why did you nominate yourself for adminship when you're relatively new?

Hello. I'm going to assume that in your recent edits you're testing Wikipedia and how to edit pages. Please slow down. If you're curious, use the "Show Preview" button instead of the save button to see how something will look. If you have questions about the protection templates, ask at the talk pages or the help desk. If you keep messing with them, people will start to assume you're here to vandalize Wikipedia. MastCell ^Talk 00:42, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Could you please have some time and explain to us what you are doing? Thanks -- FayssalF - ^{Wiki me up®} 02:37, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Military history of the United Kingdom during World War II

Hi, please don't remove maintenance tags like you did with the above article, unless you are planning to help fix the article itself. Those tags help flag the article up for the attention of users who go around fixing such things, so I've put it back up for you. Many thanks! SGGH ^speak! 11:23, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Nice try, but that doesn't work :) --SGGH ^speak! 11:40, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Missing image Image:Padlock-silver-medium.svg

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Padlock-silver-medium.svg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Padlock-silver-medium.svg is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Padlock-silver-medium.svg, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 22:28, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

WP:ADMIN

Please do not claim to be an administrator by altering Wikipedia:List of administrators, or change the user pages of actual admins to say they are not admins. You can read more about adminship at WP:ADMIN. Thank you. -SpuriousQ (talk) 01:23, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I have also removed the administrator template from your user page; it was misleading since this account is not in the admin group. -SpuriousQ (talk) 01:26, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

To follow this up - it's against Wikipedia policies for you to impersonate an administrator, and adding yourself to the list and adding the tag to your userpage are both impersonations. Please don't do it again. It could lead to your account being blocked. Thanks. Georgewilliamherbert 01:27, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I see you did it again. To re-emphasize: if you do that again, you will get blocked. Georgewilliamherbert 01:28, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

And also, please do not add tags to articles just for fun, as you did on George W. Bush. This article should in no way have {{fansite}} at the top. - auburnpilot talk 01:29, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I decline the nomination

Just two days ago I was nominated for admin and failed. I must gain more expierence befor I come again. Sorry, I must decline. GreaterWikiholic 00:46, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

No, I decline again. But I will be ready in a few months after I get the expierence. (By the way, you forgot to sign) GreaterWikiholic 21:37, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

pagemoves

Do not do copy and paste page moves! See WP:MOVE. If you can't move a page through the move function, you need to ask an admin for help. --W.marsh 01:32, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Is there a consensus to make this page move? Has it been discussed on the article's talk page? It seems like it should be. --W.marsh 01:56, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Page moves

Please do not move pages without first discussing the issue. The navigation structure is in this way because editors have consensus over it. Unilaterally moving is considered disruptive, and if you do not refrain from doing so, it might lead you to being blocked. And when you move, use the move button, and do not cut and paste. The latter is not allowed due to GFDL licensing restrictions. --soum ^talk 06:35, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Dont worry, everyone has been through this phase. :) See you around. --soum ^talk 06:06, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Archiving my page

Yeah, I was thinking that I needed to do that this morning, but then I ended up spending a few hours dealing with some problems. Probably later this afternoon, though.

Thanks for the smile! Georgewilliamherbert 01:56, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for helping me restart

Thanks for moving my talkpage, it really helped. Marlith 02:03, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Email

{{helpme}} i would like to know how to set up e-mail to the email address that is in my prefrences

Hi, I do not quite get what you are asking but if you have already entered your email Id in the "User profile" tab of My Preferences, then that's all you have to do. Anyone wanting to email you can do so by clicking on the "Email this user" link in your Toolbox (which is on the left side of your user page/ talk page, below the search box). Hope that helps. - TwoOars 17:45, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

(edit conflict) I'm not sure I understand your problem. There is a link above that will send email go a gmail.com account. Is that not the address in your preferences? If you want to change that link, you'd have to do it through {{AFUSCO Talk header}}. Otherwise I believe the "E-mail this user" link in the left margin goes to the address in your preferences. Is that link wrong? Hoof Hearted 18:10, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

thanks for the helpAFUSCO 19:21, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Wireless network diagram.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Wireless network diagram.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 10:50, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
