We did it, my friend! Thanks for your help throughout - it was invaluable and irreplaceable ! :) Lovz ya, —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 19:00, 21 February 2009 (UTC) [reply]

Aw, Eddie, you shouldn't! Congrats on that article, but there is no way that my work is "invaluable" or "irreplaceable." Icy could have done a better job, and surely plenty of other c/e-rs out there could do the work faster, better, and...politer(?). Just thank me simply, if at all - it's nothing that merits any special treatment, hon. :) —La Pianista (TC) 17:19, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Bahahaha well sure, "politer" yes, but more awesome? Naw. :P And yes, it does merit special treatment. Thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks! :) —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 18:33, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Why do some people devote themselves to deleting userpages when they could add to the encyclopdia. They have no need. Unless smething is harmful to people who don't want it then why delete it? Chubbennaitor 18:50, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Every person finds different things to their liking. I like adding to articles about old warships, J.delanoy loves to Huggle, La Pianista likes to copyedit (and occasionally contribute real stuff :P), Icy likes to copyedit and contribute to cloud-related articles, and MZMcBride likes to delete stale IP talk pages. Everyone has their niche that they like to be in—for example, don't ask me to Huggle, because simply editing isn't fun for me...it's the research behind ship classes and the finding of a good source that makes me love to contribute. Finding out why x class of ships was designed a certain way intrigues me. Working within MILHIST and reviewing articles isn't quite as fun, but reading the articles I review teaches me stuff, and it's the learning from researching and reading that keeps me here. Otherwise, I would have left lonnnng ago. :) —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 20:10, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah. There are lots of jobs on Wikipedia that need to be filled besides mainspace article editing. Like talk page stalking. Nutiketaiel (talk) 20:46, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I had a little stint with Artemis Fowl that I should get back to (those pages need love!), too :D Icy // 21:55, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Or you guys could review A-class nominations at WP:MHR... (plllllllease? :/) —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 01:35, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
IceUnshattered (talk · contribs) will probably mess up if she tries. Somehow that doesn't seem like an improvement :/ Icy // 01:57, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Later: Meh. Will see about it. Icy // 02:00, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I might be able to review one or three. Do you guys have an urgents list or somethin'? –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 02:02, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
(@ Icy) - I love you. <3 :) Really, it's not that hard to review article, especially when you go through just looking for prose problems (don't have to know anything about the topic!). :)
(@ Julian) - not really...they are just in backwards chronological order on the page. Just pick one (or three :-)))) that you think would be interesting to review...we just need reviews period. :/ 27 are on there, I think!
(@ both) - the A-class criteria, if you are interested, can be found here. Thanks sooo much! —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 02:53, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
(@ Ed's MHR request): Most certainly. :) —La Pianista (TC) 06:05, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Meaning, of course, that I'll try one or two and see how it goes. (Oh, and I do believe you love too many people. Love that is rare is love that is cherished - treasure is treasure due to its elusiveness. :P) —La Pianista (TC) 06:06, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Here's one. Tell me if it is adequate - it's been a while since my last PR. :) Oh, and Ed has mail. La Pianista Dolce, ma non troppo 07:22, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It's more than adequate. Love you all! (well, not Julian....!) Anything helps...PR and A-class are both backlogged there. :( So many people are starting to use that A-class review page, it's scary (but also good!). There aren't so many PR requests, but that's prolly because they sit there for a month and garner only one, maybe two, reviews. :/ So, if you wanted somethingto do that was quick in your limited spurts on, milhist PRs could call your name if you want.... ;)
BW, nice new page. Like the format. Don't like the sig as much (all black?), but it's not bad :) —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 14:42, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I will miss teh big blue Pianista, but it's for a good cause. I'm planning to take it up too. Oh, and your editnotice is still blue, by the way. ;) Queenie Talk 16:44, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why are articles under MySpace categories deleted? They don't destroy the encyclopedia. As long as they aren't offensive and open to the public then the problem is... If the user devotes themselves to the MySpace then they should be deleted. Only then. Chubbennaitor 16:55, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(@ Ed, Queeneh): Yeah, I was thinking the same. Perhaps one of you (:D) can design a new one for me? Not too colorful please - and I would like to maintain the "Dolce ma non troppo" part (meaning "Sweetly, but not too much.").
(@ Chubb): MySpacey pages are disruptive. They detract from the real purpose of the project - writing articles. They aren't blatantly harmful, like vandalizing and POV-pushing are, but they can be distracting. Users who wish to use Wikipedia as MySpace should, well, look to MySpace.

(sig reply)  Doing... Queenie Talk 19:11, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
 Done See User:Queenie/Sigs. Choice 3 is my favourite, anyway. :) Queenie Talk 19:40, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Aaaaie! --Pwitty user page :D, Ice loves grey color schemes and her page sucks but she likes it that way anyways! Sry Ed, I had to hop off computer really soon yesterday, will try and look at more today. Icy // 20:09, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Aaaaie! You are excited aren't you, considering that you are talking in run-on like I am right now. breathe...
And goodness gracious, don't feel like you have too go review, Icy! —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 20:11, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Too -> to (and Pianista still has to color-coordinate that editnotice.) Icy // 20:36, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but isn't it even more pointless to go round deleting them. I'm sorry. I stated that as soon as they get too distracting then I agree they should go on that users' pages. It doesn't affet anyone. What's wrong with this place being too myspacy. As long as we have users who contribute to the encyclopedia then the problem is... Chubbennaitor 20:41, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
affect ;)
An element of myspacey-ness is kind of unavoidable when you've got on your hands an enthusiastic community full of people who inevitably are going to make friendships. Even if it doesn't directly affect the project, it's going to distract from the focus. We can't have users running around the community who do nothing but chat all day - not that we have any, I'm just saying - though I stick around and talktalktalk, I pretend to make up for it by doing minor rewrites and copy-editing whatever I can. If pages that have nothing to do with the project pop up all over the project, then it's not Wikipedia anymore. And we can't have that on our hands, either. Icy // 20:45, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Here's my suggestion for a sig: here. (Just a suggestion). LittleMountain5 23:12, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Dolce ma non troppo? –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 00:40, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It means 'Sweetly, but not too much.' In French, I'm guessing? LittleMountain5 00:46, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
S'a music term, and is probably Italian... Icy // 01:27, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, yep. LittleMountain5 01:40, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
@ Queenie - they're good, but I was thinking of some color schemes.
@ LM5 - Thanks, but the colors are a little too shocking, and the font is a bit unlike me. Besides, my page already looks like EVula's - I don't want to adopt the double-slashes, either. :)
@ All of you - I am ashamed. Italiano ftw. La Pianista Dolce, ma non troppo 04:49, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've changed to a less shocking gray. What, you don't like being always right? LittleMountain5 15:55, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I said hat to do with that Icy. Chubbennaitor 17:26, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry guys - Julian has already made one. :) —La Pianista Speak · Hear 02:40, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
"...solely due to this guy, who takes full blame for any collateral damage done on my behalf..." :O Blaming me? :PEd 17 (Talk / Contribs) 03:55, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
:O Yes. :P On IRC - sorry for the late rez and all that.La Pianista Speak · Hear 04:02, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No prob :) But I'm studying, so I can't get on IRC or else I won't study! Have fun though :) —Ed 17 (Talk / Contribs) 04:06, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Poor Eddie! :) Good luck with that. —La Pianista Speak · Hear 04:07, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Waah

Where's Pianista gone? Chubbennaitor 16:57, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Aw, sweetheart, you edit-conflicted me with that. Chill, honey, chill. La Pianista Dolce, ma non troppo 17:02, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I liked the last signature on Queenie's list. Why did you change? Chubbennaitor 20:43, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
She hasn't even seen them yet, Chubb. Queenie Talk 20:45, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
