Hey there

Doin' alright? You've been missed! Bob the WikipediaN (talk • contribs) 15:03, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

I'm around, but I've been extremely busy this past month (I meant to put a notice on my page). I hopefully should be getting a bit more time in the very near future, allowing me to continue my contributions. I should be back in no time! Thanks for the concern! EWikistTalk 01:11, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
Heh, I know that feeling...all too well! Hope things come together nicely! Bob the WikipediaN (talk • contribs) 02:33, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks so much! I promise I'll look at it, and I'll contact you as soon as I get any ideas. Also, I've got an adopter finally (oh joy!) but I'll be sure to ask you for anything with counter-vandalism. Have an awesome day! --Another Type of Zombie talk 08:36, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

And the same to you, undead one. EWikistTalk 14:17, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

The Master of Mayhem has given you a kitten! Kittens promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Kittens must be fed three times a day and will be your faithful companion forever! Spread the WikiLove by giving someone else a kitten, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend.

Spread the goodness of kittens by adding {{subst:Kitten}} to someone's talk page with a friendly message, or kittynap their kitten with {{subst:Kittynap}}

Thanks for that, but...

... you said you "ate my kitten". Kittens aren't edible (I don't think).--The Master of Mayhem 19:47, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

I enjoyed it nonetheless. I thought it was a creative reply... EWikistTalk 19:49, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

The drive began on May 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and will end on May 31 at 23:59 (UTC). The goals of this backlog elimination drive are to eliminate as many articles as possible from the 2009 backlog and to reduce the overall backlog by 15%. ! NEW ! In an effort to encourage the final elimination of all 2009 articles, we will be tracking them on the leaderboard for this drive.

A range of barnstars will be awarded to active participants. Some are exclusive to GOCE drives. More information on awards can be found on the main drive page.

We look forward to meeting you on the drive! Your GOCE coordinators: SMasters, Diannaa, Tea with toast, Chaosdruid, and Torchiest

Wow!

Your images and status beside your username on the top of the page are quite impressive! May I ask you how you did that? I really love the way you present things on your userpages!

Have a nice wikipeding!

Offiikart (Talk) 18:50, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! My status indicator is a combination of the Statustop template and Qui. The images are various top icons (which are similar to userboxes) that I adjusted to lay out evenly. You can see the Wikimarkup for the whole top section of my userpage at User:EWikist/PrototypeMenu. Happy editing! EWikistTalk 20:00, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
Awesome! Thanks! Offiikart (Talk) 20:27, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Non-Free rationale for File:LEGO Minifigures Series 1.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:LEGO Minifigures Series 1.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under Non-Free content criteria but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a Non-Free rationale.

If you have uploaded other Non-Free media, consider checking that you have specified the Non-Free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:35, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

GOCE drive invitation

Greetings from the Guild of Copy Editors

The latest GOCE backlog elimination drive is under way! It began on 1 July and so far 18 people have signed up to help us reduce the number of articles in need of copyediting.

This drive will give a 50% bonus for articles edited from the GOCE requests page. Although we have cleared the backlog of 2009 articles there are still 3,935 articles needing copyediting and any help, no matter how small, would be appreciated.

We are appealing to all GOCE members, and any other editors who wish to participate, to come and help us reduce the number of articles needing copyediting, as well as the backlog of requests. If you have not signed up yet, why not take a look at the current signatories and help us by adding your name and copyediting a few articles. Barnstars will be given to anyone who edits more than 4,000 words, with special awards for the top 5 in the categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", and "Number of articles of over 5,000 words".

>>> Sign-up now <<<

Orphaned non-free image File:LegoUniversePre-Order.jpg

⚠
⚠
 Thanks for uploading File:LegoUniversePre-Order.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).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions. If you have a question, place a {{helpme}} template, along with your question, beneath this message.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
  • If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
  • To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
  • If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.


Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:28, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
