Hi, I tagged articles like [[Carlos Orejuela]] with a <nowiki>{{db-nocontext}}</nowiki>... you might have mistaken it for an nn tag since that's what you indicated in your comment... it was just someone creating articles of footballers with only a filled-in template only... nothing written... that's why. -- [[User:Mentifisto|<font color="#800080" face="courier new">Menti</font>]][[User talk:Mentifisto|<font color="#000000" face="courier new">fisto</font>]] 03:44, 2 December 2007 (UTC) |

You are now an administrator
Congratulations, I have just closed your RfA as successful and made you an administrator. Take a look at The Administrators' how-to guide and the Administrators' reading list if you haven't read those already. Some have found the practice exercises at the New admin school useful. If you have any questions drop me a message at My talk page. Best wishes, WjBscribe 14:35, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

An RfA message from AGK
Congratulations on your recent acquisition of the mop. I offer to you a few words of wisdom:
- Start slowly and carefully. There's a huge temptation to start flying through your new duties as soon as the 'crat pushes the button - resist it. Avoid close calls for your first week or two, and leave it to those who happened to get their tools a little earlier than you.
- Be sure to connect in with other users on IRC, if you can. There's a whole pool of channels there where you can get assistance in your newly-acquired buttons, and get your new colleagues used to your name.
- Be ready for criticism in your first few weeks, but at the same time don't be a push-over. If you feel worried over a decision, get another user to take a look at it.
- When blocking, ask yourself if everything you've entered into that form will benefit Wikipedia: is the block length sufficiently long to prevent further disruption by a vandal, or is it so long that it will put them off ever returning? Is your protection just going to be a minor hiccup in the edit warrior's grand scheme of disruption, or will it hinder the growth of the encyclopedia?
Best of luck with your new buttons, and don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any queries.

- Congratulations! now go and be useful by deleting the main page, blocking a few bureaucrats or even Jimbo, and protecting pages that haven't been edited in years because they must be in the best condition. :-) Carlossuarez46 18:44, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
The 'inuse' template
It is listed at Wikipedia:Template messages/Maintenance. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:11, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

It took some hunting through the Tennis Corner site, which isn't particularly well designed. If you've traversed enough websites with "twisty passages that all look alike", you start to get a sense of how to deconstruct them with a few clicks to orient yourself. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:17, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Userbox
Hi! You'll probably want to replace {{User:Henrik/ubx/User contrib|<edits>|<Username>}} on your userpage with {{User:Henrik/ubx/User contrib|15000|Dlohcierekim}}, otherwise it'll look strange (especially for people without the javascript installed). I should really try to clarify the instructions, you're not the only one who did that. Cheers! henrik•talk 14:45, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
- I was just thrilled that the thing automatically updates. Will do as you suggest. Thanks. Dlohcierekim 14:47, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
- Much better! Dlohcierekim 14:52, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
belated congrats
Belated congrats on making admin. You may now smile at the bride speak your mind much more freely, which is a good thing (=make use of that). Anyhow, yeah, just wanted to drop a line saying basically that. Best regards, I dorftrottel I talk I 22:01, December 1, 2007
First off congrats on becoming an admin. I notice someone else has already deleted the article as I am writing this so it probably moot (sorry about delay) but... I would probably have deleted the article personally as I think the intent of 'planted the church' is so unclear as to be probable nonsense or just that he is the elder at that church. Nothing else in the article strikes me as an assertion of notability. Of course if he had actually 'planted a church' that would be very notable but I somehow doubt it! If you have any doubt however remove the speedy tag and prod it instead to give others the chance to look it over. Hope that is some help and don't hesitate to drop me a message if I can be any help in the future. Davewild 22:54, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

About 'nocontext' articles
Hi, I tagged articles like Carlos Orejuela with a {{db-nocontext}}... you might have mistaken it for an nn tag since that's what you indicated in your comment... it was just someone creating articles of footballers with only a filled-in template only... nothing written... that's why. -- Mentifisto 03:44, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
