SPAN Page

I've done some major work on the SPAN page and I feel it is now ready to be reviewed. I've added the tag to it (this page may meet the requirements for speed deletion), but like I said before I'm new to this process. What happens now?

Signature help

Hey, this is prolly the wrong place to be asking, but I thought I'd give it a shot: how do folks alter their signature? Thanks --Endlessdan 20:15, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Signatures tells you most of what you need to know. You go into "my preferences", and choose 'signature'. There's the option of a raw signature, but you need to know HTML to work that one. This is what I use. For more exotic signatures, there are people here who can maybe help you out. I got mine from my friend User:NikoSilver and his signature shop. I can do simple ones myself, if it's any help to you - Alison 23:05, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Douglas Ousterhout article tags

I've removed the tags per WP:AfD - If the page can be improved, this should be solved through regular editing, rather than deletion. In this case I think notability is not the issue but reliable sources might be, in any case the answer is constructive editing to make the article better. I've left this message for the potential deleter but I suspect the only way to fend of advances will be some reconstructive surgery on the article itself! Benjiboi 10:11, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for responding to Bendono's request to block the user for 31 hours. I notice that the gaijin page was not reverted to its last non-contentious edit. Would it be alright for one of us to revert the page or should you do it? What's usually appropriate? J Readings 14:14, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked on Wictionary

Alison, I'm wondering if you know anything about Wictionary. I was unrightfully blocked from it for abusing multiple accounts. Since they don't have unblock templates, how do I appeal for an unblock there? LOZ: OOT 06:45, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Forget I even asked. Sorry for damaging your talk page with my question. LOZ: OOT 06:53, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No problem at all :) - Alison 22:29, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It just frustrates me so much the way I just join, and all of a sudden, a guy named Connel MacKenzie just up and blocks me for abusive sockpuppetry when I never even had an account there before! And then I send him a message, and he instantaneously deletes them on sight (at least I think he does)! IT REALLY, REALLY ANGER'S ME!!! Oh, boy. I need to take a deep breath and relax. Ahhhhhh...

But I'm just wondering if you know of anything that could help me at the present with this predicament. And I'm sorry for the way I acted a second ago. It just, it just makes me so mad that a user would just block somebody with such extreme prejudice. Can you help me? LOZ: OOT 07:32, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You've been blocked for username over there. Probably nothing personal. I'm contacting the blocking admin right now to see what's happened and what can be done here. Hold tight a while - Alison 07:48, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Commented here - Alison 07:55, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I get the feeling that he'll defend to the death that I'm a destructive user, despite never editing there before. Yes, I can be pessimistic at times, but I try not to be. LOZ: OOT 08:04, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually Alison, my username there is Zelda ocarina. LOZ: OOT 08:07, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The block tag on User_talk:75.21.187.140 seems to be missing a closing }. As I'm not an admin, I don't have the right to fix it, but I thought you might want to know. spazure (contribs) 06:50, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed it about 20 minutes later. Good catch :) BTW - as a non-admin, it's perfecly okay to make good-faith edits to stuff like block messages where there's been some obvious error. Be bold! - Alison 22:34, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
