Consider whisperback instead of talkback. Some editors prefer it.

If you paste this to someone's talk page, it will appear like the one I just posted above:

Company Infobox

Hi Miss Bono,

I'll go ahead and try that. I only added it in because 3D Systems had one, and that page is at least in a similar vein as my page.

thanks, alyssacles

Indenting

QUICK TIP

Indent your posts with colons. Like this:

I like bunnies.
:Me too.
::So we both like bunnies?
:::Yep. Looks that way.
::::Pretty stupid conversaton.
:::::Yep. Did I tell you I'm retarded?
::::::No kidding? Me too. :)

I like kittens.
:Me too.
::So we both like kittens?

etc. etc.

Categories

Hi Miss Bono. If you are using {{userbox}} as the base template, you can add to it:
| usercategory = name of category (without "category:")
You can add others using:
| usercategory2 =
and
| usercategory3 =
If you have made the templates from scratch—basically a table of your own divising, you can just add to the template's code (I suggest at the bottom)
<includeonly>
[[Category:Name of category]]
</includeonly>
Best regards--Fuhghettaboutit (talk)

Belated thanks

... for another barnstar. But you already gave me one earlier for work on the Morleigh Steinberg article :-) Thanks anyway ... Wasted Time R (talk) 11:55, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! Wasted Time R I know that i gave you another bstar, but... a great work deserves another bstar. hope you dont mind :) Miss Bono (zootalk) 12:06, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

U2 360

Miss Bono I have accomplished my goal, I successfully got U2 360 to GA status so that email above wont concern you, now where is that party you were talking about! Prabash.Akmeemana 11:52, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yai!!!! Prabash. I am so, so so so Happy... Let me think.... party tonight at the Plaza Hotel. Bills runs from Bono ;) Miss Bono (zootalk) 12:07, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Busy days

Miss Bono, there is nothing wrong except I've been busy. Work challenges. A 24 hour fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. A 7 hour meeting at the Wikimedia offices to discuss software upgrades. Helping another editor with a challenging article. So, everything is fine between you and me. And I have some information on rock clubs for you. Don't worry. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 15:55, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cullen328 Cool!! I am preparing the synopsis (I think that's the english for 'sinopsis') of the story for you to read it. When you have time I would like to focus on EDUN article and I would like your help. Like we did with Morleigh Steinberg's article, which turns out to be a GA. What do you think?? Miss Bono (zootalk) 16:55, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Can I also volunteer? I've been working on articles in the past few days :) TheOriginalSoni (talk) 17:59, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, Soni When can we start?? Miss Bono (zootalk) 18:12, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No better time than now :) TheOriginalSoni (talk) 18:14, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Soni, what can i do in the first place?? Check out my EDUN sandbox Miss Bono (zootalk) 18:21, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I already got an article to GA yesterday, so mind if I join the crew? Prabash.Akmeemana 18:23, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Replied at its talk page. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 18:24, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No problem at all, Prabash., you are more than welcome ;) Miss Bono (zootalk) 18:26, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for letting me in on this, Bono, is it okay if I expand your sandbox? or should it wait? I will be quick to expand as soon as i'm finished lesson three on TheOriginalSoni's Adoption course. Prabash.Akmeemana 21:34, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I will be glad if you help me with my sandbox, Prabash. :) Miss Bono (zootalk) 11:53, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Miss Bono, I noticed that there was material on Edun that was in the Ali Hewson article but not in the EDUN article, so I merged it in. But now I see you are doing a lot of further expansion on Edun in your sandbox. Hope I didn't make things harder for you ... Wasted Time R (talk) 12:44, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Wasted Time R. Actually I was going to ask you to review what we are doing there. Please, if you have a tiny piece of time stop by my sandbox. There is a link for it somewhere up ↑ there Miss Bono (zootalk) 12:46, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I took a quick look at it now that it is in the mainspace. You have added a lot of good material, but there are some things that still need to be done:
  • You've copied and pasted wording from newspaper articles. That is a copyright violation - you have to rephrase that material in your own words, unless it is a direct quotation of someone like Ali or Bono. That's the most important change that must be made.
  • "Controversy" is generally not a good section title. Better would be something like "Source of manufacturing".
  • You might consider breaking the History up into two parts, the original part with Gregory, then the second part with LMVH and Wauchob.
  • The "Irish fashion designers" category should be removed - it's for people, not companies.
  • There is too much repeated linking of Ali and Bono. Once at the beginning and once in the infobox is enough.
  • Wauchob should be added to "Key people" in the infobox.
  • You need to coalesce cites that are duplicates now from the merge and other work. For example, there are three separate definitions of the "Ali Hewson and Bono's return to Edun" National Post article. The other two could be changed to be additional references to <ref name="np-ret"/>.
  • The cites to atu2.com should be redone to reflect the newspapers they were originally in.
Hope this helps ... Wasted Time R (talk) 10:34, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've redone the two atu2.com ones, because you don't have Internet access. But the coalescing you can do yourself, despite what you say about not being good at it! Just read the instructions at WP:NAMEDREFS ... Wasted Time R (talk) 00:39, 29 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ali Hewson for FA

Ali Hewson seems like a great candidate for FA, but it lacks some pictures and requires some copy-editing, I personally would love to get this into FA. I will try to get a picture for it if you can't and perhaps article expansion and copy-editing can be done by me as well, just please if you can try to get a picture of Ali Hewson to the infobox, if done I will get my friend to review it for FA. Prabash.Akmeemana 01:24, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi to both of you. One of the rules of WP:FAC is that "Nominators who are not significant contributors to the article should consult regular editors of the article prior to a nomination." In this case, that's me – 90 percent of Ali Hewson was written by me, in the changes I did in November and December last year. I agree that it needs a good image of the subject, but it is going to continue to be difficult to get one. I disagree that it needs article expansion: at 3,626 words it is already pretty lengthy and I believe I incorporated pretty much every significant fact and development about her that is findable. (It's almost longer than the Bono article, which is 3,768 words!) As for copyediting, it is already on the queue at WP:PR, I would suggest waiting to see what that review produces. Wasted Time R (talk) 10:24, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Wow you did a really good job with the article, I was going to notify you earlier but I thought it should be the nominator who should get notified also I'm not the reviewer for this article so I might jump in anyways, the contributor who did the most work is the one who gets credited for brining it to FA status and in this case it is you, I will fish out the picture somewhere where I can upload it. But from what I can see, the article is still GA and has a lot if work before FA. Prabash.Akmeemana 11:20, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hey! Prabash. don't rush with the picture issue, Cullen and myself are working on that, please, leave that matter to us, thanks anyway and I will be happy you to help us to get it to FA, and Wasted Time R thanks for stopping by, we were not to steal the credit for Ali Hewson's from you. Don't worry... :) Miss Bono (zootalk) 11:57, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Today

Hello Miss Bono, I have a long work day scheduled with lots of driving. If I have a chance, I will tell you what I've learned about two rock and roll clubs in San Jose. Take care. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 15:24, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I made a CSS that shows some icons, including a Bono's face, in the personal bar. It works well in Vector. Do you want to install it? --CStaff (talk) 15:35, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I will love to. Hey! 'E' , I have a poor format of Wikipedia here at work. I don't know if that will work. I think it is related with the proxy. Anyway how can I install it, or can you do it for me? (you know I am not good with codes)

And How does it works?? Miss Bono (zootalk) 15:44, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Do you know you are my best male friend, don't you? Miss Bono (zootalk) 15:39, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Eso simplemente debería funcionarte porque a mi me ha funcionado en las dos wikies. Todos los usuarios tienen hojas de estilo que se superponen a la hoja de estilos de la página. Simplemente hay que escribir sobre la hoja de estilo correspondiente en tu espacio de usuario. Por eso funcionan todos esos script que andan por ahí. Nada, solo dejalo. Un dia que te vea te enseño como se hace. Dale un saludo a tu tia. Ya finalicé un artículo para el portal de South Park Jewpacabra.

EDUN vs Sandbox8

Okay I need some clarification as to how this is going to work out, are we going to do a page move or content replacement, and yes I will check out the sandbox in a second Prabash.Akmeemana 15:23, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Prabash.. I was thinking about replacing the content. see that Wasted Time R merge some information from Ali Hewson to EDUN, we might copy it into the sandbox, mix it with the other information and use the sources... and then see how we got our article. Ms.Bono(zootalk) 15:27, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hm, sounds nice, let me look into it. Prabash.Akmeemana 15:29, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rock and roll clubs

Good morning, Miss Bono,

I posted some information for you on the mentorship page. Feel free to ask more questions. I am not sure yet how busy I will be today. I need to call a customer now, but have an appointment in a few hours. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 15:48, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Jimbo's talk page

Hello Miss Bono,

I noticed your comment on Jimbo's talk. Jimmy has always made it clear that he welcomes any editor to bring any topic pertaining to Wikipedia and Wikimedia to his talk page. He does not limit his page to conversations about him. All he asks is that people avoid insults and trolling. He has said that he reads and considers everything, even when he is too busy to comment.

He will shut down the page for a three week vacation in July, but then it will be back to normal. I hope this helps you understand how Jimbo's page works. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 01:36, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wao, sorry, Jim, I didn't know, I understood Jimbo's comment as people should focus more on Wikipèdia, and less in posting in his page. Again, sorry Ms.Bono(zootalk) 12:06, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No need to apologize. Jimbo's page is interesting reading. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 19:35, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

NOTOC on your userpage

Hello! I'd just like to point out that the "NOTOC" thing is displaying as plain text, probably because there's a new line between the first underscore and the rest of the term. Thanks, and happy editing smile -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 07:10, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ubuntu

Hello Ms. Bono,

Unfortunately, Ubuntu has closed, though notability is not temporary. It was an upscale gourmet vegetarian restaurant in Napa, and had a star from the Michelin Guide, which is a high standard. It was on an annual list by restaurant critic Michael Bauer of the 100 best Northern California restaurants. My wife and I ate there three times, and thoroughly enjoyed those meals. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 19:32, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, Cullen328! I'm glad you replied. I thought you were forgetting me :( Ms.Bono(zootalk) 19:36, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
No way! How could I forget you? I am just trying to earn some money to buy groceries, gasoline and maybe a new pair of work boots. I am a man of simple needs. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 19:46, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Try the lotery :). Seriously, working is good but studying is much better. I am working until I get college and I am beging for it to happen. I recently found out that UH has Wi-Fi, maybe when I get there I can still contributing all the time... Please see ↓ Ms.Bono(zootalk) 19:51, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Cullen328, have you ever heard about Ubuntu (philosophy)??? Ms.Bono(zootalk) 20:10, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I have. There is also Ubuntu (operating system). I think that the restaurant and the software were named after the African philosophy. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 20:25, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Cullen328... I use Ubuntu (operating system) at work, but I am more fan of Mandela and the African philosophy than the operating system, tough, I am a Windows girl :) Ms.Bono(zootalk) 11:57, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Way back in ancient days, long before Windows or the Mac, and before you were born, young lady, my wife and I had to choose between Microsoft DOS computers or Apple II computers. We decided to go with the Bill Gates team which became Windows, and have stuck with it ever since. But we have looked with envy in the Apple direction from time to time. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 04:40, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Cullen328, I would like to try one day Mac OS, but Apple products are expensive a lot, I only own a U2 iPod Special Edition cuz my aunt gave it to my in my 18 bday, that's enough for me :) Here in Cuba, people used to have Windows as OS and recently Ubuntu, in 2000, when I was in pre-escolar (I think you call it Kindergarten) I was 6 years, my grandpa taugh me how to use MS-DOS, and I am pretty good now working in console mode. That's why I choose to study computer science... :) I'll thank my grandpa for that all my life Ms.Bono(zootalk) 12:09, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • A video named "This Is - U2 for Aslan". The song appears to be a cover of "This is" from Aslan (band)
Description says "All the way from Electric Lady Studios in New York City, U2 performing 'Thiis Is' on A Night For Christy."
Nice good sound, and a feel good kind of song. A nice acoustic guitar tune in the background, and a kind of tangy overtone to it, because of the drums, as well as the base. Sounds good as a song, but is kindof hurting my ears. Having now heard the original too, the cover is a lot more lively. Good song, I think.
