Thanks

Thank you for your help. BTW, are you as cute as your picture? (watchlisted you) Ideogram 03:14, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome! wait...what picture? o.o;; ~Kylu (u|t) 03:36, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The manga one, silly. Where you say "single and loving it" :-). Ideogram 04:23, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oh! Image:Wikipe-tan full length.png! Yah, that's Wikipe-tan (the anime representation of Wikipedia), not me. I suppose if you really want, there's a picture of me somewhere on my deviantArt account somewhere. I'm not interested in people finding out who I actually am, so no hints or confirmations or denials! You can just look and pretend you've got it figured out! :D (Evil Kylu! O noes!) ~Kylu (u|t) 04:33, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Portal namespace in Sinhala Wikipedia

Hi Kylu, I'm Lee from Sinhala wikipedia. We need the namespace Portal in Sinhala wikipedia; but I’m not sure how to get it. Please help me with the issue or redirect me to a person who can guide me. Thanks in advance. --Rathne 11:33, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ayep, I just checked and it looks like you're absolutely right. Let me see what I can find out for ya. ~Kylu (u|t) 01:16, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I've put in a feature request for you, asking for the creation of the Portal: and Portal talk: to be added to si.wikipedia.org. Please note that "soon" (current ETA: Later next month) they may be creating the Namespace Manager which will allow bureaucrats for the Wikipedia in question to create and delete namespaces without requiring assistance. Sorry my response took so long! ~Kylu (u|t) 01:39, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Kool! I guess all I have to do now is wait for it to be implemented. :-) Thanx for the support. --Rathne 09:11, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've read si:Wikipedia:කෝපි කඩේ and notice that there's a little confusion as to how you want the namespace spelled. Do you want "Portal" and "Portal talk" in English, or do you want it in Sinhala? Which spelling? ~Kylu (u|t) 22:28, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The English wording would be just fine. We haven't reached a conclusion yet on the correct Sinhala word for "Portal" (to be used in the wikipedia). So I've informed the others that we'll use the English word for now; and that makes perfect since most of the interface related things are not yet translated in to Sinhala anyway. BTW can you read Sinhala? --Rathne 02:56, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Not a damn bit. :D I have a "knack" for figuring out what's going on in other languages, though, so generally understood the conversation without knowing what individual words meant. Anyway, you should see the new namespaces soon. Thanks for helping with Wikipedia! ~Kylu (u|t) 03:03, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, done, your new namespace should be up and working soon. :) ~Kylu (u|t) 03:44, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm curious if you think it'd be worthwhile to approach Village Pump (or whoever) about adding a tab to "logs" (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&user={{{1}}} or whatever) to the top of monobook.css/js for user/user talk pages. Any opinions? ~Kylu (u|t) 21:15, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Check out this javascript please. Seems to work fine, doesn't interfere with any of the kazillion js's I've got loaded. :D ~Kylu (u|t) 03:53, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure if this ever went anywhere, I added the javalink to my local settings, and have found it useful, if you haven't already, I'd start on talk section up on it in the approriate MediaWiki:*.js section, and link to it from WP:VPT. Let me know if you do. (Sorry I took so long looking at this!) — xaosflux Talk 22:06, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Will work on this. Sadly, at the moment, I'm stuck in a bit of a mess involving MedCab and such, but I will bring it up on VPT at the very least. After looking at the scripting and then the various .js's, it looks only appropriate for MediaWiki:monobook.js.
Hey, if you happen to check out this reply, mind taking a peek at WP:OVER (aka Wikipedia:Oversight) also? I've had a couple +oversight users look at it, and it appears accurate and useful so far, but the more opinions the better. :) ~Kylu (u|t) 06:18, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RfA Thanks

Kylu, thanks for your support and for congratulating me! I'm not going to spam anyone with "RfA Thanks" messages, so please take a piece from of my RfA thanks message here. Cheers, and happy editing, Tangotango 16:06, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

*sob* Another of my friends taken away into admin-land, oh the humanity... So, anyway, congrats. :) ~Kylu (u|t) 16:08, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
When do you plan on requesting, Kylu? I think you'd be a great admin, and you really have nothing bad on your resume for people to oppose. :) -- The Prophet Wizard of the Crayon Cake (Prophesize|Witchcraft) 17:17, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ack! Shh! What, are you trying to give people ideas or something, Cake? Yikes. o.o;;
Tell ya what, I've got to get off of here now, but later on I'll do some explaining, okay? (Hehe, tonight's to-do list is starting to get rather large...) ~Kylu (u|t) 17:23, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oh yes yes, I am a patient turtle-goat... no need to tire yourself over me. By the way, I totally stole your spiffeh-pink-signature idea to make my new signature. You like? -- The Prophet Wizard of the Crayon Cake (Prophesize|Witchcraft) 18:20, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Best check your links. "Special:Contributions/The porphet wizard of the crayon cake" ? 207.145.133.34 20:22, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
eh?...turtle-goat? Anywho, you don't seem to be using an overabundance of pink, so I can only assume you're talking about the (u|t) thing. I figured it was the most efficient way of embedding those links in my sig, getting to keep the pink name, and still not confusing the heck out of people. As far as when I'm going to be available for nomination (as you asked earlier), I'm making User:Kylu/rfa so I can just point instead of explaining. :D ~Kylu (u|t) 01:23, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the spellcheck, mister-ess IP address. Oh, and by the way, you can keep the overly pink signature -and- give it a link... as you can see my spiffeh colored link has a link to it. But the thing I copied was basically color, heh, you were the inspiration behind coloring my signature. -- The Prophet Wizard of the Crayon Cake (Prophesize|Witchcraft) 01:34, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, so I won't have to worry about the RfA after all? (I figure, once they find out it was me...) Just kidding, CakeProphet! ~Kylu (u|t) 01:42, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

mmmmmmm, if you put the font tag in the visual part of the link like so:

<b><i>[[User:Kylu|<font color="#FF00FF">~Kylu</font>]] <font color="#FF00FF">([[User  
 talk:Kylu|<font color="#FF00FF">t</font>]])</font></i></b>

Then the HTML will override the default link color, thus producing: ~Kylu (t)

or, as my own suggestion, you could put contribs, a nowiki'ed pipe (to prevent interference with wiki syntax involving your sig), and a nifty superscript tag, thus producing: ~Kylu (t |c)

<b><i>[[User:Kylu|<font color="#FF00FF">~Kylu</font>]] <sup><font color="#FF00FF">([[User
 talk:Kylu|<font color="#FF00FF">t</font>]] <nowiki>|</nowiki>  
 [[Special:Contributions/Kylu|<font color="#FF00FF">c</font>]])</font></sup></i></b>

(Whew, that took some triky use of nowiki to recreate in code form :P)


Of course, that's just what I would do... not to mention it gives you quite a ginormous signature code, much like mine... and it's looking less and less like a good suggestion :D sooo... -- The Prophet Wizard of the Crayon Cake (Prophesize|Witchcraft) 02:13, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You realize, that's time you could've spent proofreading a Power Rangers article! j/k, nice way to sig. Not sure if it'll fly for long, being a large sig, but I guess we'll see. :) ~Kylu (u|t) 02:45, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yes well... my sloppy HTML code is valid contribution enough, fair mistress. Hmm, if the second one is two large, the first one seems moderately sized enough to do the trick. -- The Prophet Wizard of the Crayon Cake (Prophesize|Witchcraft) 03:12, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
'''[[User:The prophet wizard of the crayon cake|<font color="MediumBlue">The Prophet 
Wiz</font><font color="SeaGreen">ard of the Cray</font><font color="MediumBlue">on 
Cake</font>]]'''<sup> ([[User talk:The prophet wizard of the crayon 
cake|Prophesize]]|[[Special:Contributions/The prophet wizard of the crayon 
cake|Witchcraft]])</sup>

That's mine. Quite the hulking behemoth. (We've strayed horribly off topic) -- The Prophet Wizard of the Crayon Cake (Prophesize|Witchcraft) 03:14, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just somewhat slightly. ~Kylu (u|t) 03:27, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User Page

I love the way you designed your user page.How long have you been on wikipedia? --Cute 1 4 u 21:29, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! According to the usage logs I created this account 02:03, 24 March 2006 and my first edit (according to my contribution list was at 19:18, 2 April 2006 with this edit to Talk:Drusilla (i.e. roughly three months, though I understand some people don't count your first month...)
If you're interested in the design of my user page, I'd suggest checking the map of my userspace, probably focusing on User:Kylu/main, since it does most of the "grunt work" :)
~Kylu (u|t) 01:17, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Per your Request

I've commented to your userpage. Pbbbbttt.... KC9CQJ 04:05, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did you put in your username change request yet? ~Kylu (u|t) 04:08, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yup. I'm dropping the prefix and keeping the suffix. KC9CQJ 18:05, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Tell me if there's anything I can do to help. :) ~Kylu (u|t) 01:23, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Banu Nadir

I meant that I was going to ask Pschemp,to unprotect the page, only when the case is resolved. I believe that keeping the page protected until resolution is the best course of action. Sorry for any inconvenience. Geo. 19:34, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No inconvenience, it's just that some new mediators aren't familiar with mediating within constraints. For instance, a mediator between the US and Canada can't simply give Canada some land in India that neither side has claim to, nor can we as mediators demand that an admin reverse an administrative action as part of mediation. We're just here to help the two sides of the dispute come to terms with eachother and try to compromise a way to a solution. Sounds textbook, doesn't it? ~Kylu (u|t) 01:23, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nice greetings from Cuba!!

Hi, i'm very happy with your pink message, where you from??? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by ZorphDark (talkcontribs) .

Thanks for the note of appreciation! I'm from Indianapolis, Indiana, United States. ~Kylu (u|t) 01:23, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You're student, or worker? I'm a elementary education computing's teacher and i study at university the computing ingineering career.
Sorry my poor english on the talk, but i have not any friend from another country, and i never pratice english's language...
i only read the textbooks and manuals that have to do with computers and programming, but i don't know much about the words and grammar of conversations.
Nice to chat with you :) ZorphDark
Sorry about refactoring your comment there, but the long line was messing with my display a bit. :)
Anyway, I'm a bit of both. I work a job as well as play my violin, plus I study other musical instruments. I know a little Spanish, but it's basically limited to retail transactions and musical terms. I imagine that Wikipedia's technical articles will be a great source of interest for you! I enjoy editing technical articles, even though I'm only barely technically inclined. I can set my VCR after reading the instructions. :) ~Kylu (u|t) 03:25, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
well, if your need sometime a "technical support", don't doubt to contact me, ok?? I like violin, but i can't play it, I only can play a few notes on piano... no more... the guitars aren't easy to me. I hope to be your wikifriend from now on... Good byez!! ZorphDark

Why thank you!

How thoughtful... Not sure I've done anything particularly kind lately (given that I'm in a big bunfight at the moment...) but wow. Thanks! You're a very kind person yourself you know!!! ++Lar: t/c 03:47, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

*blush* aww, flowers. n.n <3 ~Kylu (u|t) 03:53, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mistake

Kylu, When clicking on you're block log you made a mistake. When you created a link you put you're name after User:. Sadly, putting it after User: doesn't work. For you're real block log here is the [link.]
