User talk:Pedro

Pedro, I don't know how to post. Just start typing at the top? I really knew that Jeff was very involved with Wikipedia, so I felt I had to try to let someone know who could tell others. We're devestated. Shoked. He wasn't ill. His sister in law found him in front of his PC. I'm flying out Tuesday for the funeral on Friday. This all just seems so impossibe... but it's true. I wish it wern't. Please forgive my lack of Wiki knowledge. Jeffssister (talk) 16:21, 9 August 2008 (UTC)jeffssister \== thank you ==

pardon my intrusion and i really have no idea if i'm doing this right or wrong because last night was the first time i've seriously wiki'd anything. and it was to talk my friend El and her daughter Debbie thru posting a note on Jeffs page. actually im rather hopeful you can make this whole note im leaving you vanish after you read it because i think it probably makes me look really wiki-cluess. which i am. my name is Holly and i'm an irl friend of El, Jeffs mom. Thank you for verifying (such that you can) the information about him so the discussion didn't descend into everyone disbelieving as that would have been.. harder.. on El. I should have known when i helped them post that the possibility of doubts would arise and planned.. something (not sure what but i would have tried).. so that his friends here could verify. As it is, it will take something of a leap of faith for you to believe me as well. I would leave my yim stuff (sorry no icq) for live chat but as i'm not really sure i can make all this go away if i look too stupid.. if you have any questions or anything that i might be able to answer to.. prove (as it were) the events or that El is real as am i, please feel free to ask.

Re: beat the crat

Cheers, many thanks for your assistance in making it a pleasant experience! WilliamH (talk) 13:17, 9 August 2008 (UTC) On a side note, London 12 is tomorrow should you still be interested/available.

Heh, not to worry - another time then. Whether I can help help you as a gardener or groundskeeper then by all means contact me. I'll draw the line at being called this though, er, whoops. WilliamH (talk) 13:26, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

a question from El

I was speaking with El and she asked me a question i just don't have an answer for. She wants to know if there is any way to 'lock' that page so that it just stays there the way it is? El's friend (talk) 20:36, 9 August 2008 (UTC)El's friend Holly

It can be protected to stop anyone except admins from editing it, or I can remove that section to prevent anyone but admins from seeing it. If you think that would be appropriate, let me know and I'll do it whatever the rules say, given the circumstances. – iridescent 20:50, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Iridescent. I also received an answer from an admin person. I'm speaking with El now, and she thinks she wants to wait a few days and have the page locked (Jeffpw user page) and left as a tribute. But wants the delay of a few days as more folks seem to stop to leave final words. Thanks everyone for your support and answers and patience.

A Question

Hello, I have seen your signature (the blue block) and really like the way it looks. Would you mind if I borrowed the "blue block" look (switching it to a dark red, so it would be different) and use it for my signature? Take Care...NeutralHomer ^talk|edits 22:35, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! :) I will work on it and post it here when I get it done. Take Care....NeutralHomer ^talk|edits 22:39, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Made a couple changes, but I think it looks good :) Thanks Again...NeutralHomer • Talk 23:55, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

• Ah, the growing influence of WP:PEDRO...it's unstoppable! :) I even found it being used by a sock here. Everyone likes it! It seems that the signature of Pedro is, well, the height of perfection! Acalamari 23:57, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

It is, isn't it? With a couple changes, it can be customized for each user....colors, linkage, everything. I say a barnstar is in order. - NeutralHomer • Talk 00:05, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Heh :) - nice version! And Acalamari was kind enough to give me a barstar for it once before! Pedro :  Chat  Is grieving 09:02, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! It took me a couple to get it the way I wanted, but I think it turned out great. A barnstar well deserved :) Thanks Again and Have a Great Sunday....NeutralHomer • Talk 15:08, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the rollback permission

Thanks a tonne for granting me rollback permissions Pedro! Now, to get Huggle actualy working on my computer... James.Denholm (talk) 05:12, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Welcome - good luck and happy editing. Pedro :  Chat  Is grieving 09:03, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey, could you remove my rollback and indef. block me?

Title says it all Metagraph comment 05:55, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, editors are not blocked on request. Useight (talk) 06:12, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Indeed - Useight is totally correct. I'm sorry to see you've retired. I've removed rollback from the account. Hopefully you'll be back some day. Pedro :  Chat  Is grieving 12:03, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Deletion for you

Would you mind deleting this page for me? It was an accident. Thanks. The image is 2004 stellar quake full.jpg. Alright, --Meldshal 20:48, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Appears to be gone! Pedro :  Chat  Is grieving 22:38, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Or not - did that file exist? One by a similar name seems to be at WP:FPC so I doubt you want that deleted. Can you clarify? Pedro :  Chat  Is grieving 23:08, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I knew that, I nommed it, but I missed something in the process. I was wondering if you had any additional ideas for my mentoring page? --Meldshal 01:34, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

I'll have a look for you. Pedro :  Chat  06:58, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Smart move

Thanks for continuing to take care of things for Jeff's family (and Wiki-family). Who knew the mop would ever be used to clean up tears? You are a Godsend to Wikipedia and to its editors. 1st class posts all the way peds, 1st class. Keeper ǀ 76 00:45, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks my friend. Pedro :  Chat  Is grieving 20:33, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Ribbon

I copied your ribbon for Jeff for my page with a slight modification in the wording. I hope you don't mind. Keeper's now using it, too. Aleta ^Sing 23:17, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

copied as well, let me know if it's a problem. TravellingCari 01:49, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

I copied it from User:E - maybe a barnstar is due .... Pedro :  Chat  07:11, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
