Photography portal[edit]

I was surprised the other day to see a link to Portal:Photography. Why had I never noticed this before? Simple reason, of course: it's new. And most of it turns out to be your work -- and work without the benefit of much experience, too. Well done, and I hope it flourishes. -- Hoary 03:21, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA[edit]

My RfA passed with a tally of 71/1/0. Thank you very much for your support. I hope that my performance as an admin will not disappoint you. Please let me know if you see me doing anything inappropriate. -- Donald Albury 02:29, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sports photography[edit]

Hi there; this seems to be an article with no text. What happened? It is guaranteed to be deleted unless filled in.--Anthony.bradbury 01:14, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We've probably all done that. You might consider inserting at the top of the page that you are creating the template {{underconstruction}}. This will normally deter newpage patrollers!--Anthony.bradbury 01:20, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Chemistry would like to see this portal attain featured status. If you have any tips, tricks or suggestions, please feel free to add them here! Thanks, riana_dzasta 05:38, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Replied to your comment :) The portal colours have gone through quite a few transformations, all with a green theme, but I got a complaint about them and decided to change to blue to keep people happy. I personally agree that there are too many blue-themed portals. riana_dzasta 14:33, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Photo request template[edit]

Have a look at User talk:Doug Bell#Template for photos. Doug has kindly agreed to work on a new template. Want to keep an eye on it? --MichaelMaggs 08:51, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Photo matching service[edit]

Hi Gphoto, Thanks your your quick response. I definitely think they should be notified. I was planning on posting a message to the talk pages of everyone listed at Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Photographers and everyone with the photography userbox. I would greatly appreciate any help. GabrielF 18:23, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There's a photo in your town just begging to be shot posted on the new photo matching page. Cheers, Rklawton 19:03, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Gphoto,
I'm not sure if there's something specific to make talk page notifications easier but perhaps Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser will make the job easier. You could also check WP:TOOLS and Wikipedia:Tools/Editing Tools. I will make some more talk page notifications later this evening. GabrielF 22:51, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Photography portal archives[edit]

Okay, all of the archives are on "randomized" display! Let me know if you have any questions. :-) Rfrisbietalk 15:07, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Large format camera lens.jpg[edit]

Transparent version as requested

Could you change the white background of Image:Large format camera lens.jpg to transparent, please? Thanks very much, --Gphototalk 14:04, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sure thing. I'm on it! --Brad Beattie (talk) 14:09, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks very much! --Gphototalk 14:13, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image as requested. It's uploaded as a PNG as JPEG doesn't support transparency. The edges might have a little harshness to them as the image I was working with wasn't really high-res. Still, it should be good enough. Anything else I can help you with? --Brad Beattie (talk) 14:23, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks[edit]

Hi, Gphoto. Thanks for the link to Wikipedia:Photo Matching Service. -- Kjkolb 11:21, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RfA[edit]

Thank you for your comments. My Rfa did not achieve consensus, though the voting was a majority in my favour. I will re-apply later.--Anthony.bradbury 23:00, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Fish Portal[edit]

Hi, User:Melanochromis has done a great job getting the Fish Portal up an running. At this point, more sets of eyes can help make it even better. If you can offer some tips on the portal talk page about how to improve Fish up to "featured" quality, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Rfrisbietalk 13:37, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia Weekly Notification![edit]

This is just a friendly reminder that Wikipedia Weekly has been released with a new episode!

Actually, it's a couple of new episodes. I've been moving to an place closer to campus (my commute was getting to me) and hence, the reminder message was a little slow in coming out. So slow we put out 2 where before we had 1.

Anyways, all is good now, here's the new episodes!

Referring to the Dye Sublimation printer page[edit]

No, it's not considered vandalism. Someone merged dye sublimation, incorrectly, into the page about dye sublimation printers. All external links are to RELEVANT sources of dye sublimation information or commercial. Linking to commercial printer companies in a dye sublimation page is also, by your thought process, "vandalism", but you didn't remove those. Your bias is also "vandalism".

Please learn what dye sublimation is and read the talk discussion of what happened to the pages. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.53.137.202 (talk) 04:02, 18 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]
