Hello. I am Anna. I do not know who Noah and Nellie are, but they sound nice.
I have dwarf hamsters. They have no IQ, but they are really the sweetest things on Earth.
I want you to join the community here. Everyone will love you and respect you extra double if you can make this get redder. For me, the most rewarding thing of all is to start articles. Do any of these interest you? We will all help any way you like.
Well, I was thinking of starting John Jeavons, but I can't find a photo. I usually don't like to start articles unless I can find a photo. Then of course, there are the ones at Wikipedia:Requested articles/Images. Why don't you pick one. I'll start it, and we can grow it together. :) If those aren't your cup of tea, then tell me what you are interested in, and maybe I can find a good subject related to that.

Work? You mean will it be challenged and get deleted? I think not. 98% solid. But, if you like biology, and want to make something undeletable, any species will do. Nobody can challenge it. So, what do you think? A fish? A bug? Something else? We can build it back and forth. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 13:07, 14 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, I see. Sorry, I didn't see the photo there. Actually, that is from here and is a copyright violation. We do not have permission to use that. I must tag it for speedy deletion. No worries. Honest mistake.
Hey (you might be thinking that who is this suddenly coming in) but I wanted to help MirrorFreak when Yunshui pointed me to that fish and as I wanted to help you, I will try to add to that article. ^_^ --Tamravidhir (talk!) 14:20, 14 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Amanda, I have got the ping above and am aware what has happened in the past few weeks. I'm glad that you admitted your faults. Not many people do that. It seems you have changed your username, good! Now you should forget your past and do a clean start. The best way of earning experience and respect is to do what Anna Frodesiak is saying. Create lots of articles, don't worry, we are here to help you. Just imagine a huge list of articles you have created on your userpage. It will not take 2 or 3 years, just follow what Anna is telling and I'm sure you will gain what you lost. Best, JimCarter09:35, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please take care not to upload copyrighted images. Always look at the bottom of the source website. If it says CC attribution or CC sharealike text and images, then it is probably okay. But if it says "Copyright" or "CC non-commercial" or has no info, then the images are copyrighted. Websites also often have a "terms of use" link that will say. Also, images at websites often have a "credit XXXX" below the image itself which means the image is owned by someone other than the website.
Flickr has a lot of free images. Use this link: http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=BUNNYBUNNY&l=commderiv&ss=0&ct=0&mt=all&w=all&adv=1 Then double click the bunnybunny in the url and add the searchword and click enter. It will return only CC images. Others ought to check to see if that still works. I cannot check because Flickr is now blocked here in China.
Also, at my userpage, you will see a lot of US government and other links that have tons of free images.
I can't find much else on this beetle. Can you? Maybe we should move on and start another. Have you started a list of your creations at your userpage? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:29, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
So, what do you think? Something from the bottom of the sea? How about a horrid centipede? Maybe a virus or bacteria or parasite or something tiny that infects things? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:42, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, before you said you didn't know who Noah and Nellie is. Noah and Nellie are my two pet schnauzers. And I have a virtual German Shepherd given to me by W.carter named Noah.Amanda Smalls14:53, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Virtual?
About brown: I remember and old Rodney Dangerfield joke: Guy says "My teeth have turned yellow." Friend replies "Don't worry. Just wear a brown necktie." Another one I remember is a quote, I think from Jimmy Stewart: "Do you ever feel like the world is tuxedo, and you're a pair of brown shoes?"
I mean I am Ctrl-clicking at all those subcategories. Taxonomy is like a tree. That article shows all the subdivisions beneath. I'm looking at all the different families, etc. to find good species with images to start. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 15:52, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Amanda, can you please just drop asking Jimbo and everybody questions and focus on something else. It's getting tedious having Jimbo take swipes every couple of days. Why not expand your local town article into a WP:GA or something?♦ Dr. Blofeld10:42, 19 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, you reverted my edit on Steak with no explanation. I had removed a paragraph which had nothing to do with steak in particular, just meat or beef in general, and I explained this in my Edit summary. The paragraph is silly in other ways, too. The bit about "pork steak" is particularly silly, since it is unusual to call cuts of pork "steaks". It is also wrong that "Christians give up steak, but not fish, for Lent and during the Friday Fast"; this is true for observant Orthodox Christians, but has not been true for Catholics for many decades and was not ever true for most Protestants. Kindly revert your edit, or at least explain your reasoning on the Talk:Steak page. --Macrakis (talk) 17:13, 21 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, you mentioned wanting to work on some jellyfish articles. I made a couple today: Liriope tetraphylla and Botrynema ellinorae We can make more if you like.
You are pretty good at multiplication. What exact type of multiplication questions trouble you? Do you face difficulty in solving questions with higher degrees?--Skr15081997 (talk) 15:07, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
So Amanda is good at learning from Skr15081997, and Skr15081997 is good at teaching Amanda, but Amanda is slightly less good at explaining what she learned from Skr15081997 :) I am glad it all worked out well. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 21:16, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you
Thank you again so much for the lovely barnstar.
I am very impressed with your article creations, and would love to see more of the mainspace work that you have to offer.
I am also somewhat concerned that you are being drawn away from being productive, and toward drama and conflicts. It takes a long time to see that many of these discussions are often more complicated than they seem. You may find yourself taking a position and then seeing that you were on the wrong side. It is sometimes better to take no side. On the upside, when you do get involved, you often take a neutral peacemaking position, and that is good.
If you need to get a drama fix, try Shakespeare. :) Wikipedia drama is the worst and lamest kind. Reading it is a waste of life. Getting involved is worse as it draws others in which wastes everybody's life.
Shakespeare is awfully difficult to read for 20th and 21st century teenagers. When I was 14, we had to study Twelfth Night, supposedly a comedy!, for English GCSE, and we focused on the scenes with Malvolio because they might be more amusing. They turned out to be deadly dull. (In A-level Latin we studied Ovid's Metamorphoses, which suffered because the teacher, a Cambridge graduate incidentally, failed to properly explain that the various events were supposed to be witty or whimsical, and instead just made the class plough through the whole work translating its meaning literally in a stony-faced sulk. I understood some of the humour, but some of my classmates were left thinking it was the worst work of literature ever.)
Amanda, you might actually find Twelfth Night interesting to read, because the plot is perhaps the most famous early exposition of "gender reversal" (in the acting sense) in the English language. It must have caused huge confusion in Shakespeare's own day, since women were not allowed to act on the stage, thus the parts of boys pretending to be girls, and girls pretending to be boys, and girls as girls would all have been acted by boys who could pass as girls on stage. Complicated!
Twelfth Night was a comedy, supposedly, so perhaps one of Shakespeare's formal dramas would be a better thing to read for drama? Well perhaps not; Tolkein is partly based on Tolkein's dissatisfaction with some of Shakespeare's work, so just watch a good Tolkein-based movie instead.
If you want to read real drama enacted as comedy (real political satire at its ugliest), get a translation of anything by Aristophanes. WARNING, the sexual and vulgar references are about a dozen per page! And it's nearly 2500 years old, which shows there's nothing new... --Demiurge1000 (talk) 21:38, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Pretty nice fish, right? Feel free to start it if you like. (You can steal a taxobox from Chaetodontoplus caeruleopunctatus and swap in the right info.)
Amanda, when I advised you to stay away from Jimbo's talk page I was serious. You're 14 and far too innocent to read some of the stuff said there!! ♦ Dr. Blofeld11:48, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I just want to say that you are about my age when I first learned about words like those. With your new knowledge though you can learn not to use the word, and identify when your friends first start using it so you can tell them that it is not okay. Don't feel sorry to have taken away something new here. =) - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 14:27, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Dr. Blofeld: I also want to say that this is the reason why words insulting people shouldn't be thrown around carelessly here on Wikipedia. No we cant protect everyone but in general it is best to keep your cool and remain civil or at least try to. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 14:31, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
