I wasn't sure, the meaning of the word

So I linked to a page with definitions of the word: Viscosity

something wrong with that?

Why do you want me to go to the sandbox ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.234.249.122 (talkcontribs)

You're not meant to place definition links like that into the article - especially as others will know the meaning quite well. The sandbox link is part of the standard message I left you - it's not something you have to do. Thanks. --Alex (talk here) 10:37, 2 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Esperanza!

Welcome, Alex9891, to Esperanza! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is Stressbusters, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Proposals.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Natalya by email or talk page. Consider introducing yourself at the Esperanza talk page! Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an IRC tutorial. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!

JPD's RfA

Thanks, Alex, for your support at my RfA, which finished with a tally of 94/1/0. I hope I live up to the confidence you have shown in me in my activities as an administrator. JPD (talk) 15:44, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

God exists

Hello, I really cannot understand what is happening with my article .First I have written Let's proove God exists, and it was decline , what sources do I need , for the part written there is no need of sourse .Second , Ihave written tHE BIBLE SAYS the truth, but the article doesn't appear bellow the title, first I made a technical mistake , but then I did it again, but the article doesn't appear bellow the title The bible says the truth What do I have to do ? -- Mirelapsta2006 20:24, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You need neutral verifiable reliable sources, preferably published on the Internet in English so that other editors can check them. You haven't created any new pages since you registered. --Alex (talk here) 21:07, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Welcome

Thank you :) How do you create sub user pages? Streamwater 22:15, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Try this. It probably explains it better than I would be able to. J Ditalk 22:18, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Streamwater 22:19, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, what J Di said... --Alex (talk here) 13:21, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question Abot My User Page

Thank you, Alex for your nice welcome. I just need some help on improving my user page so my fellow Wikipedians can learn more about me. How to I add them userboxes? I would appreciate your help. Thank You matt wilson 02:38, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WP:UBX has information about userboxes. J Ditalk 02:44, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I hate to keep asking for advice, but I just improved my page with facts about myself. If you would be so kind go over to it and read it then post back here want you think of it. matt wilson 03:37, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is good, but I don't know if you're aware that Wikipedia content is copied to a lot of places, and personal information on any page of Wikipedia can be read by anybody. I'm not saying it needs to be removed, but if you decide to leave it there, you should know this. J Ditalk 03:53, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
As J Di says, you have quite a lot of personal information there. It's probably best to keep information to the absolute minimum, or use vague user boxes for your info instead. Any more problems, let either of us know. Thanks. --Alex (talk here) 10:05, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I know but I am aware of people getting info on me. But I did not use my wife's real name or my kids names (I would not put them into danger). My surname isnt even Wilson, the only real name on there is my first name, Matthew. matt wilson 18:25, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't think there'd be much point in writing anything there if it's not the real thing... but it's your page not mine. That's my opinion. --Alex (talk here) 19:00, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The summary of life I wrote is all true, I just used different names for my wife and kids. Nothing on my page is a lie (if I wanted to make up a story, it wouldn't be close to that) I just used diffrent names to protect my identity. Like you said Im aware of the possibility of people seeing it. Its like when an author writes under a pen name, I just gave my wife and kids pen names. matt wilson 19:44, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Maybe you should start editing some articles now? --Alex (talk here) 19:52, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I will, I didnt join to write about myself matt wilson 20:42, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There ia lot of vandalism going on at the article Chapmanville, West Virginia and have warned the vandals to stop but it is not working. Now they have deleted the whole page and I dont know how to repair it. Please help me matt wilson 02:35, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

After 4 warnings (written on their user talk page), persistent vandals can be reported to WP:AIV where an admin will block them. To get the page back, look through the history for the last version that is correct. Edit that old version of the page, and save it - you will be warned that you are overwriting a new version, but you want to do that. Any more problems, just ask. :) --Alex (talk here) 16:40, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

For Alex 9891, from Mirelapsta2006 , with congratulations!

Mirelapsta2006 14:39, 7 September 2006 (UTC)Hello Alex , I am Mirela Pistae , Mirelapsta2006, I understood that you are the editor of the articles or one of them .First I want to congratulate the Owner of Wikipedia . It is a great ideea , I haven't find another one that great ! Secondly , I want to appologize , my article the Bible says the truth has been declined as being original research . I want to say that I wrote to wikipedia because I understand from the title articles for creation that original articles could be accepted because creation means original, here in Romania , and I undersood that you reffer to reproducting some information already existing which for me doesn't mean creation .So I appologize and wish you luck . Besides I want to add that actually I have also reproduced something from the bible but adding explanations according to our century and mentality .But I don't mind if you declined my article acctually , the article wasn't about me , was about God . Now , I also feel that I have to give you a pice of information about me . I have graduated from letters , The Bucharest University , Romanian -English specialty , American studies section .If you don't know what is this about I can tell you . Al this faculty you learn literatures of the languages chosen , and somethimes you come across the literatures and civilizations around the world . From the beginning to present .It means I know everything about Shakespeare's writings .We also study the two languages chosen, and a history of our own language . An optional of media power course with an American journalist , American teacher of literature can be our teachers here in Romania at the University .Now you see why I understood article for creation as being original points of view , which I preffer to call new or mentioned points of view and I will tell you why . ..Because everything that I have written in my article the Bible says the truth is something resulting from ideeas that are coming from the Bible and processed by the society along the centuries , and expressed in our schools somehow , in our writters , in our papers and in our talks in the streets .I mean . ..nothing from what I told in that article is original , everything is in the Bible . I also reproduced it . Anyway , perhaps I will find a subject to write an aricle the way Wikipedia wants ! I could say more about me , I have worked as a subtitutional teacher , and a worked a little bit as a copywriter on television , and I have also worked as a reporter and jounalist - a little bit also in televisions , and I also worked a little bit as a film critic on the radio . So , I also plann to publish a theater and make a film . Good luck !And as the christians say here in Romania when they say good bye ,- we say God help us ! And I will write other articles and maybe I will be succesfull !But I want to tell another think , what is vandalism ?I am not very used to using internet i can hardly manage , i hope I will not commit vandalism by mistake . So long , Mirela Pistae .[reply]

Welcoming new users

Hi Alex. I see you just added a welcome to User:Pikaco. While in general this is a noble effort, this user is in fact a serious vandal who I had blocked moments before you added the welcome tag. Its a good idea to check the user's contriutions and block log before adding a welcome notice to their talk page. Best, Gwernol 16:29, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I generally welcome most users from my watchlist who have not yet been welcomed... however I will check next time, thank you. --Alex (talk here) 16:31, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for Welcomeing me

Thank You for welcoming me, I really appriciate it. Jelleh 30 19:05, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi but.... How do you get the User Boxes?

Hi Alex9891, I hope not to bother you too much, but, How do you get the User Boxes on your page?

Thanks :)

Jelleh 30 19:22, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, it's not a problem. Go to Wikipedia:Userboxes for a comprehensive set of boxes. If there's anything else, just ask. --Alex (talk here) 19:24, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
