I made an update to it, do you like it this way? Prabash.Akmeemana 21:28, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- It's fine either way. :) Technical 13 (talk) 23:03, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I used fireworks to put the mop there and I uploaded it to commons, they never had it with the mop, I'll also get a topicon to go with it! Prabash.Akmeemana 23:42, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Jesus isn't a dick keep him out of my vagina

Hello Technical 13, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Jesus isn't a dick keep him out of my vagina, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not blatantly an attack page or negative, unsourced BLP. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. – GorillaWarfare (talk) 18:38, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your review of my CSD nomination GorillaWarfare. I'll skip the PROD as I know that the person that removed the CSD tag incorrectly thinking it was an "I just don't like it" tagging would remove the PROD as well so off to AFD I go! Thanks for your time. :) Technical 13 (talk) 18:42, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please, slow down...

...and familiarise yourself with Wikipedia's deletion criteria. This is the second deletion request based on a spurious reason from you I've reverted in as many edits. Mogism (talk) 19:01, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker)One could argue either way on this one. It is a BLP and the sole reference is a primary source. Today would BLPPROD be correct? Borderline, I think, 55:45 for deletion unless referenced. I think your message to T13 could have been phrased somewhat more thoughtfully. Fiddle Faddle 19:11, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thanks for your note... The number of red links on my log pages would lead to an assumption that I am fairly familiar with the criteria. I appreciate your concern, and would love to see you take initiative to fix the problems with the articles to no longer make them deletion worthy. Either way, both of those articles are now at AFD to allow the community to decide. Thanks! Technical 13 (talk) 19:20, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

AN/I question

Thanks for this question - replying here as the discussion has been archived. I think there might be a case for some of these images being added to the MediaWiki:Bad_image_list and if you or anyone else thinks they do, the instructions for how to get them on there are at the project talk page.

Edit Count

can you add one of those like yours in my user page? I am not able to follow the toolserver link. Thanks! Miss Bono^[zootalk] 14:12, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Miss Bono, usually I would be happy to. That actually doesn't require you to follow the toolserver link. It's a userscript that I have been developing that creates that table, and it is still too unstable for me to recommend you add it to your setup just yet. I'll work on it in a couple weeks (I have a 2 or 3 month backlog of schoolwork I need to get done in the next 10 days, so I'm just poking in to respond to questions and such on my talk page and "not do anything of significance that will require much time"). Poke me again in a couple of weeks and I'll get the userscript back to a stable beta and help you learn how to use it (it is stupid easy to use, just click a link in your toolbox and wait a few minutes). Technical 13 (talk) 14:28, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

wao! Thanks Tech! I'll poke you again for sure. Good luck with your schoolwork... Miss Bono^[zootalk] 15:10, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Did you solve the problem with the edit counter? I need to add those [edit] to the sections in my user page. Do you know how to do it? Miss Bono^[zootalk] 19:54, 16 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

User:Bogdan1333

Since you opened an SPI into this user, I assume you've been watching him/her more closely than I have, so I was wondering if you were aware of any edit he/she has made to article's which have since been deleted? Based purely on the username, I have a nagging suspicion that this may be a sockpuppet of Bad good dragosh98 (talk · contribs), but that alone is of course no where near enough for an accusation.

Response to your remarks at the Afc help page

Technical 13: This is the first time since joining Wikipedia last year that I have been truly angry. When you said that you would help test with my proposal, and then didn't, and didn't reply to my message asking you to let it go so that someone else could test it, I thought that you were just busy, and then forgetful. Now I find that you were deliberately not doing it because you have grandiose plans to single handedly rewrite everything in sight and holding up Writ Keeper's and my work without even letting us know so that you could incorporate it into your own at some later time. Here are a few adjectives to describe what I think of this behaviour: rude, high-handed, patronizing, arrogant, ignorant and mean. The script that Writ Keeper wrote works perfectly well as it is, and there is no justification at all for making it wait for some future project that isn't even proposed yet. I can usually find a way to see things from the other person's point of view, but this time I am not even going to try. My upbringing prevents me from expressing myself more strongly. —Anne Delong (talk) 22:32, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Anne, I had thought I had mentioned this intent multiple times before. I apologize if this hasn't been the case. In the last few months, my baby has gotten the flu, her mother has had surgery to have her gall bladder removed and now has strept throat. We've also gone through divorce and are still in the process of separating. I've also had my financial aid for school audited and am on the verge of having it retro-actively suspended for this semester which will kill my schooling as I can't afford it otherwise. I had not forgotten, I was not intentionally ignoring you. I have no other active projects I've been working on. I've just been way too busy with real life to do much more than I can do in a few moments here or there at my own pace. When I get to the article wizard upgrade of my proposal, I hope to work with you and Writ Keeper to incorporate his script of your idea. I'm by no means trying to upset you or shut you out. As far as asking me to say I didn't have time for testing, it was a moot point for the fact that a script should never have only one tester, so if multiple people were testing, my part was irrelevant.

Hello there Jjbernardiscoo! I've fixed it for you using Twinkle.

I am leaving

I am leaving Wikipedia. It was so nice to meet you. You've been an awesome friend, thanks for teaching me the technical stuffs. Take care. Miss Bono^[zootalk] 13:00, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Miss Bono I'm assuming that it is a personal reason and not something that happened on Wikipedia that is causing you to leave, is that correct? I will miss your perky attitude and nice messages. I wish you well, wikifriend. :) Technical 13 (talk) 13:05, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, it's not a personal issue, it's a Wikipedia issue. I suck as a contributor and now I'll get fat eating ice cream to see if I get over this :'( Miss Bono^[zootalk] 13:11, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Technical 13 hugs Miss Bono. I don't think you suck as a contributor at all. I see you making lots of good and useful contributions. Who told you, or implied, that you suck as a contributor? Technical 13 (talk) 13:26, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I did. I spent lots of times in talk pages instead of contributing to the encyclopedia. I wanted to wake up the WP:U2 and make good their articles... but I failed. Now I am crying like a baby and my co-workers think I have personal problems. Miss Bono^[zootalk] 13:33, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Miss Bono, spending time on talk pages collaborating with other editors to improve articles which have gotten GA or better status is very appropriate and thinking otherwise is silly. I wish that you would stop being so hard on yourself, there are still U2 and other similar projects that need help from editors like you to get GA. ;) Technical 13 (talk) 14:00, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

But what about my internet problem. I cannot make researchs on my own or find fresh info. Miss Bono^[zootalk] 14:04, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That is an "outside of Wikipedia" problem. That is why you spend so much time collaborating on talk pages. You are doing the best you can with the tools you have available, and making decent headway at it too. Aren't you moving for school soon? Won't you have more resources available then? I thought you had said that at one point not too long ago? Technical 13 (talk) 14:44, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I passed the exams for college but they gave me Medicine, so I'll be taking the exams again in May 2014. That means I'll be at work for at least one year and then I'll move for school. I think I will have more resources there. There's Internet at University of Havana (with some restrictions as well). Miss Bono^[zootalk] 14:51, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

User:Technical 13/Userboxes/OS

They don't have to exist to be populated was your response to my fixing the template. The process to delete a category requires them to be empty. Also, allowing red categories to be be populated encourages editors to create the category. Which if it was deleted at CfD, has them breaking the guidelines. It would be much better for you to simply check if see if the category exists before you actually add it. That way we avoid all of the problems. Vegaswikian (talk) 21:27, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you!

I'm sorry to hear about your personal life. I hope all the issues are taken care of and good luck with your baby. So, this is totally going to throw you off. The box with Jury Member will be replaced with a name once the show is over. That would defeat the purpose of the template. They vote for who they want to win. How would that work in the template?

Thanks for all your help! I appreciate it! Templates are a foreign language to me. I'm going to try to create a template, but I won't be nearly as successful. You are not obligated to do these. These are only ideas. But I'm going to create a to-do list. Is there a more appropriate waiting list than here? I'm sorry if I come off as using you. Here are the templates I created.

Template:BBHOH
Template:BBNOM
Template:BBPOV (kinda the same as my idea, but I had a new idea)

Please create template User:JHUbal27/sandbox/BBEvict2 with '''[Name]'''<br /><small>[Number] of [Number] votes<br />to evict</small> Not done

Please edit the Template:Infobox Big Brother housemates parameter hm-veto, so that if you type "yes" then [[File:Big Brother PoV sign.png|16px]] will be shown in the box Not done

You do not have to do these ever. It's up to you whether they are possible and if you want to do them or not. I'm trying to be tactful. Bye. ~~JHUbal27 01:30, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's a category page, and should not have text - let alone THAT text. Remember WP:BRD. If you want it added, start a discussion where people will see it ES &L 13:31, 31 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
