Squirrel Hill

Hi there. I noticed that you created Template:Infobox Pittsburgh neighborhood 2010 and I understand why you needed to do that. Please see my comments on Template talk:Infobox Pittsburgh neighborhood 2010 about a longer-term solution. Best, Mackensen (talk) 13:19, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks! I'll reply over there.Sega381 (talk) 15:41, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Editor's Barnstar
	Exceptional job with sorting out and cleaning the WSN-related articles. Looking forward to your technical contributions in this area. Tom Jenkins (reply) 13:44, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

I may be no one to award you a barnstar, but I couldn't help appreciate your work with the mess that Zigbee was. Kudos and thanks a ton for improving the sparsely documented electronics-related info on WP. -- Tom Jenkins ^(reply) 13:45, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you very much! I will be working on this subject for the following months, so I'll probably come and improve some articles from time to time when I have the time. Sega381 (talk) 14:30, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Broken Ref

Hi. You moved some text from IP multicast to IP address with this edit. The latter now shows an error regarding an undefined reference. As that article is semi-protected and I cannot edit it, may I suggest you change <ref name="RFC 5771"/> to <ref name="RFC 5771">RFC 5771</ref>. (That's how it is in the multicast article. Better would be a proper ref with this URL.) Thanks. --82.170.113.123 (talk) 00:47, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Good catch! I fixed it to make it work as it was in the original article. From what I see, Wikipedia translates RFC references into URLs when creating the reference list, so doing the change you suggested made the reference URL-based automatically. Thanks for noticing!

Hi Sega381!

When I took a first look at the list of subjects on your page, I immediately saw that a lot of the games you apparently like, are right in my alley!!! I also spend a big part of my youth with games like Cosmo's cosmic adventure (best platform game EVER!), Commander keen (several), and Wolf3d and so on... Now I'd like to ask you something... I played a game (PC) that took place on a farm with a lot of chickens and such, and you could refill your life-energy by drinking moonshine... Do you have any idea what game this might be? Another game I played was in a wild wild west setting (also PC) and was made in a cartoon-style, and also from this game, I don't have a clue what it's name was... Do you have any idea? I'd be so grateful if you would help me on this... Oh, em... both where kinda first person shooters. Oxygene7-13 (talk) 15:05, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Hello Oxygene7-13! Yes, those were the best games... Commander Keen was my favorite, but Cosmo was amazing. Monster Bash was one of my favorites too!

Regarding your question, I do not seem to recall either game. I do recall a wild-west themed game called Freddy Pharkas, from Sierra, but it was not a first person shooter but an adventure game. It was kinda cartoony, though. Most FPSs games I recall from that era were either Sci-Fi themed (Doom, Blake Stone, Quake, Rise of the Triad, Duke Nukem 3D), or fantasy themed (Heretic, Hexxen). Shadow Warrior was ninja-themed, but not really wild-west... If I remember any more ideas, I will let you know. Good luck finding them!Sega381 (talk) 23:05, 8 July 2015 (UTC)

Sorry for disappearing into thin air after my last question but I'm restricted by a white-list (for reasons I don't like to discuss....). Somebody took the EN-Wikipedia from that list and it took a while to get it back. By the way, the first game I was asking about in July must have been (I think) Redneck Rampage. Oxygene7-13 (talk) 12:25, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

No worries. Anyway, Redneck Rampage does look like a good match. I never played it, and in fact I had not heard about it till some years ago, for some reason. The other game you mention may have been Outlaws (http://www.gog.com/game/outlaws_a_handful_of_missions), a game I had heard about, but which I also never played for some reason or another.... --Sega381 (talk) 02:49, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

The name Outlaws does ring a bell... And I can't click the link to gog.com because of the white-list. By the way, you should really try Redneck Rampage, it's packed with redneck-references in the most funny way! So, thank you for the info. Oxygene7-13 (talk) 11:05, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello: you can also try this internal wikipedia link for some info: Outlaws (1997 video game). Thanks for the tip about Redneck Rampage, I'll check it out on GOG!--Sega381 (talk) 12:12, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

@ _* % !... (just kidding) ...and yeah, Outlaws is the one! Oxygene7-13 (talk) 12:16, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
