What exactly is the point of these three templates? From what I can see, they are just coloured words that can be more easily typed than putting two braces around them. Could you please explain? Currently, only {{open}} has been used even once. -- Anonymous DissidentTalk 00:26, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- For adoption, sandboxes, etc. jonathan (talk — contribs) 00:49, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- Ah, ok, I see. Can you explain why one could not just type 'taken', and why it is necessary for templates for a single word? -- Anonymous DissidentTalk 00:53, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- It's just so people won't have to do the HTML coding (saving them work) jonathan (talk — contribs) 01:06, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- I assume you mean HTML coding for the colours. Why are the colours even necessary? -- Anonymous DissidentTalk 03:34, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- It makes them easier to see. jonathan (talk — contribs) 03:39, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- Hmmm. Well, thanks for making the template... but do you really think that a single coloured word(s) warrant a template? -- Anonymous DissidentTalk 04:07, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Jonathan!
Hey, Jonathan, how goes it? I've never really interacted with you much, but after seeing your intelligent view at a most interesting RfC, and also your retiring note on Phaedriel's talk page, I was somewhat disheartened that you decided to leave on such a high note. Don't worry what others may say; you're a valuable contributor here, and a really great guy. Again, welcome back! Happy editing, ( arky ) 01:08, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
- Mschel (talk · contribs) convinced me back. :) Jonathan talk \ contribs 20:17, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Userpage
Hi, Jonathan. You may notice that I deleted your user page and restored it minus a bit of detail. Unfortunately, it isn't wise to post information such as your hometown, school schedule, name, and birthday. Not just because of your age, but due to the freaks that will take personal information and use it. I removed the private information and restored the page as it was. Sorry for any inconvenience, but please don't post such detailed information in the future; it just isn't wise. - auburnpilot talk 04:38, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Encyclopedia Titanica AfD
Hi Jonathan, please take care not to remove other users' posts from AfD discussions, even if they haven't formatted them correctly. It's important that the whole debate can be seen by the closing admin. You should have reformatted it instead. Sorry, --RFBailey 00:01, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, okay. I thought it was another log. Oops! Jonathan letters to the editor — things I've written 00:04, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Re. bot
I'm afraid I'm not familiar with Python. My bot is just a copy of AWB, which works on Windows (with .NET 2.0 installed). You might run it on a separate bot account, which would need to be approved here. Ral315 » 02:54, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks. I'm a little bit new to this kinda stuff! ( if it isn't obvious.) Just wondering, you said you are only 11. How did you come to wiki? Do your friends use wiki or something? I was just wondering. You don't have to answer if it's too personal. Irish♥forever(and lovin' it) 01:45, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
- I got to wiki in March 2006 by Google (kudos) and joined under this account, and joined under this account in December of that year. I made my first edit under this account on February 2, 2007 as Jonjonbt, and then got renamed to Jonathan in September, and no, my friends do not use wiki. I did have one friend under this account, but he asked me to retire him and I did, painfully. Jonathan letters to the editor—my work 01:54, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
I read the comments above
DO you live in North Carolina? JUst wondering. again, you don;t have to answer if it's too persnal. And also, what was your last article you created? I might have read it.Irish♥forever(and lovin' it) 01:45, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
- No—read the first paragraph on my userpage. And I can also design a sig for you if you'd like! Bye! Jonathan letters to the editor—my work 01:56, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
who so ever are you. if you don't know the biography of a person. don't touch it. i am removing my page and i am removing my self from wiki pedia. earlier i found it to be a good site. but i am exhausted. i tried to give biography of a great person who earned lesser credit than he deserved. don't worry take care of you and your wiki. u r the most brilliant editor. go to hell —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rsdhull (talk • contribs) 12:04, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
- Calm down, calm down. I do not need to go to hell for deleting an article about a non-notable person. He needs to have won an award or have been nominated for many. Also, please read this policy on your comment. Thanks!
Please do not be so hasty with your speedy deletion tags. It certainly is not nonsense. Give me a bloomin chance, mate!!Luckyles 18:33, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
- Please do not remove speedy tags. You must place
{{hangon}}right below the tag. Jonathan letters to the editor—my work 18:41, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
LEAVE it alone!!—Preceding unsigned comment added by Luckyles (talk • contribs) 18:56, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Comments about your Nicktropolis screenshot
Hi, I have a question: Why you don't upload a newer screenshot of Nicktropolis? I think that you can because you're the one that uploaded the first version, and the design of the page has litte changes. Note: please leave comments on my talk page. Macys123 21:40, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
Re:Question...
Approved you
Typically, your request went on a few mins after i'd approved the last batch
Usually you would have to wait till jogers, myself or another administrator did the list

Your bot
Hi Jonathon, I know it's a new bot you're running, so I just thought you should be aware that you edited using the bot account by accident [1], might want to try and remember to log into your main account next time :-) Cheers, Ryan Postlethwaite 00:22, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Please see here for a reply. Thanks CO 00:50, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
Bot trial newsletter
Hooray! Jonathan's bot has been approved for trial! However, since the bot is in trial, this is a fake newsletter so it can be approved for good. Thanks!!! DeliveryBot 22:31, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
Andrew Winch
Thank you for editing an article that I created, Andrew Winch. I never claim ownership of articles and welcome all constructive edits!
I am puzzled about DeliveryBot. It seems to have edited, not just a delivery bot function. Furthermore, your edit summary suggests breaking up the table but usually those who make the suggestions do it (except when it merits discussion). I'm not convinced that the bot is such a good idea but that's based only on seeing it make one edit. Archtransit 17:19, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- I forgot to log back in under this account, and you're very welcome. I didn't break the table up because it was about 10:00 local time when I made the edit and I had to go to bed. Thanks! 17:54, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
"Decommission"
Can you provide a source? I haven't found any usage by state highway departments. --NE2 20:34, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- I just called MoDOT and they couldn't answer the question because of the weekend, the representative did not know the answer, however I do very well believe that they have used it before. Jonathan letters to the editor—my work 20:43, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- You were probably reading a "roadgeek" site; I know I was surprised when I couldn't find any usage of the term by any official bodies. It does not appear that MoDOT uses it: [2] --NE2 20:52, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- It's modot.gov, and that showed no results. If I'm grammatically incorrect, please remember I'm an Ozarkian. :) Jonathan letters to the editor—my work 20:59, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Re: I've closed your RfA.
Very well. I thought it might be closed for that very reason. I might try again spring 2008. Hopefully then I will have enough experience to succeed. Vistro 01:02, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- I'm sorry! But I'm proud of you, because my RfA was first closed I almost quit. So, you are coping with this much better than I did. I'm proud of you, and better luck next time! JONATHAN Go green! 02:47, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
hi
hello. you gave me a warning about vandilising a page. that was someones sandbox that you could vandilise instead of her page.please revoke your warning. if you have further questions drop by my talk page.

Do you really want me butting in? Blnguyen (bananabucket) 02:29, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
- Quite honestly, I have no problems with that. But there's one problem: most of the refs for the article are about the launch, so it's a bit hard to find refs for everything. JONATHAN Go green! 00:58, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (Image:Windows task grouping.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Windows task grouping.png. 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, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Sock Puppetry
I am not a sock puppet to any of those accounts. Yes, I do own those accounts, and yes, they were banned. I believe the username of whoever banned them was "lucky6.9" or something like that. When I e-mailed him/her, they unblocked my IP and said I could make a new account to edit. You can ask him/her if you want (if he remembers it. It was several months ago.) Sorry for the confusion. WrestlingFrodo25 03:40, 10 November 2007 (UTC)WrestlingFrodo25
- Then you're a sockpuppeteer! If you create accounts to evade blocks, that results in you being blocked indefinitely for sockpuppetry. Also, when did Lucky unban you? JONATHAN Go green! 21:00, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Jonathan, thank you for filing the SSP report and bringing this matter to our attention. I have posted an administrator response on that page which you should read. Basically, I find that your report was correct but I am giving the user another chance because of some special circumstances. Regards, Newyorkbrad 21:56, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Speedy on Crime in the Kennel
Hi Jonathan, just wanted to let you know I removed your speedy tag on this article. If you check out the Hardy Boys page, it IS a book in the series. I'll update it with an infobox. Although most of the 1-2 sentence new articles are a load of- well, you know-, there are a few which are just not well-fleshed out stubs. ~Eliz81(C) 22:31, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Your GA pass
- Thanks for passing the article I worked on as a GA, Operation Clambake. Usually it's customary to leave some comments on the article's talk page as to why it successfully passed as a GA. I'd love to hear your thoughts over there if you have a chance. Curt Wilhelm VonSavage 00:46, 11 November 2007 (UTC).
- If you want, you could use this template to structure your comments: {{PGAN}}

Your RFA has been closed
Hello, I've decided to close your RFA early due to the fact it had essentially no chance of succeeding. Please feel free to nominate yourself or have someone else nominate you again in the future. There are a lot of comments on the RFA as well as good advice and it would be good to read them and learn from them. Please don't let this discourage you from continuing to edit as I know it cam sometimes be frustrating. Thanks and Good luck. Wikidudeman (talk) 21:29, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Aakash patel
A tag has been placed on Aakash patel requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding
{{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. JöиÁ†ĥăИ 02:46, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Why 62 Days? 62 days from now is January 15, 2008. Looks similar to this. Miranda 06:24, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

What?
What is this for?? I am the one who tagged the page for deletion as I moved it to Elisha LeBlanc. - Rjd0060 01:11, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
- All you needed to do was move it, and he's still not notable. JöиÁ†ĥăИ — Quality, not quantity. 01:17, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
