Greetings! I just wanted to let you know two important details of moving pages: 1) When creating a disambiguation page (rightly so), you should move the entire article via the move tab at the top of the page. That allows the page history to be moved along with it. Copying and pasting an article to a new location isn't considered proper. And 2) The disambiguation should be lowercase, such as Awn (botany) instead of Awn (Botany) unless the disambiguation word is a proper noun. I'll get an editor with admin capabilities to move the article history over to the Awn (botany) article to fix the problem. Thanks! --Rkitko (talk) 05:51, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Being nice

I know you haven't been around long, but your history suggests you've been around long enough to see and understand template messages. They're canned messages. Plug in the article in question and go. The one I used was just a general warning. No rudeness was intended, and I apologize if that's how it came across. Apparently the developers Uberyl decided to make your article part of their advertising without your knowledge or consent. That made the situation appear worse that it may in fact be.

SVG images on Commons

Thanks for the notice, I've read up on vector graphics and have a pretty firm understanding of them now. I'm trying out Inkscape and a free trial of Adobe Illustrator CS3, and they are fun to work with, so I'll be trying to see what I can do using those programs from now on. Thanks again!

Tiny userbox

Greetings Rugby471. l thank you for eliminating the need for a parser function in the tiny userbox. l do not know what a parser function is, but removing it has made the template function much better. Think outside the box 09:17, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

So the template does not need the extra pramaters to make it work now. That is good because some people were having trouble useing it. I am grateful for your help, and I have learnt something new about parser functions. Think outside the box 09:08, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

RE: BSoD UBX

Thanks for the help! The BSoD userbox was one of the first I ever made. Thats why it looked strange, and I never bothered to change it.
