Image for 26328 Litomyšl

I do not know of any image off the top of my head that could be used. I doubt that there is a picture of the asteroid itself as it is just a minor asteroid out in space. You could possibly get a picture involving the town, Litomyšl, which the Jet Propulsion Lab source says the asteroid is named after. I do not know of anything else that could be used. Sorry. I hope that this helps you. Captain panda 04:04, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Adoption

Hello, Basketball 110,

Thanks for your offer to co-adopt. I accepted Diligent Terrier's offer, and will keep yours on hold, if that's OK with you. Or can more than one person adopt--are the multiple adoptions? --BudgieBirdChan0211 (talk) 15:56, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Carlisle

Please don't change Carlisle related articles until he has signed his contract, per WP:CRYSTAL. We had similar issues with editors jumping the gun on a similar "verbal agreement" during that Jason Kidd trade that collapsed earlier in the year. In general, we wait until an official annoucement or signed contract for sports transactions and hirings. --Madchester (talk) 17:13, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

DYK Passed

I see your online from my watchlist. I've received another DYK this morning.--RyRy5 (talkReview) 17:53, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes, as long as you helped out a decent amount. There's even a userbox for it but I'm trying to deplete my useage of my userboxes. -- RyRy5 (talkReview) 17:58, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Cluebot made a mistake. It's a rare occasion. You should keep it somewhere.--RyRy5 (talkReview) 20:05, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Probably not. If it was a programming problem, you would see hundreds of those. It might have been just a small glitch. I was just on my normal RC patrol when I saw vandalism, then a user reverted it, but then Cluebot came a long and reverted it back.--RyRy5 (talkReview) 21:39, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

DFW Metro

I do live there. Thanks for the info about the Meetup. --Shruti14 t c s 23:57, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

I'd love to! Thanks. --Shruti14 t c s 00:00, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Le Dunk de la Mort

A tag has been placed on Le Dunk de la Mort requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. TNX-Man 03:36, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

The COOKIE MONSTER ate the cow

Hi, just to make sure you’re not too hungry, I gave you a cookie! I would’ve given you milk – but the cow just died and I tried to milk the bull but it kicked me in the face. *sob*. Anyway, enjoy the cookie!! Fattyjwoods Push my button 04:42, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Adoption Offer

Another one? I hope you can handle it.--RyRy5 (talkReview) 04:28, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Hey, i noticed your offer on my talk page so I came to yours. I'll accept. Katana Geldar 05:19, 11 May 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Katana Geldar (talkcontribs)
I left a comment on it's talkpage. -- RyRy5 (talkReview) 06:54, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Okay then, a second later, it's deleted. Too bad.--RyRy5 (talkReview) 06:55, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
It was something like "I'm not sure if it's notable or not. I suggest letting the community decide at the WP:AFD".--RyRy5 (talkReview) 18:55, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
I've seen it before. Are you actually going to try to meet up with other wikipedians? -- RyRy5 (talkReview) 18:59, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
So your just going to orginize it, not actually going there. Right? -- RyRy5 (talkReview) 19:03, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

I think that's all the info I need. I'll be creating an article. I haven't created one in a while. -- RyRy5 (talkReview) 19:07, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

My bot

Not sure who all is on that list, but I would recommend sending it to all Wikipedians in Texas, as well as members of the Texas project, the Ft. Worth/Dallas project, and maybe the Houston project. God bless, - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 18:47, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Bot?

You need a bot task run? See if my bot can do the task, and get back to me. Steve Crossin (talk) (review) 18:57, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, my bot is already fully approved and flagged. Feel free to wait, but I could get it done rather quickly. Steve Crossin (talk) (review) 19:03, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Remove the striked out text in the template, and subst the template? Steve Crossin (talk) (review) 19:13, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

 Doing... Steve Crossin (talk) (review) 19:15, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

 Done. Apparently, one account wasn't registered, one page was sysop only, but that's your concern, not mine. Task done. Anything else? Steve Crossin (talk) (review)

DFW meetup

Thanks for inviting me! I'm not sure if I am able to come - I'll have to hear more details. I have a summer job so my time and space to travel is limited. :) WhisperToMe (talk) 00:33, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Good hands

Hi, Basketball110. Thanks for your nod of approval. Ciao,--BudgieBirdChan0211 (talk) 01:26, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

What precisely do you mean by your comment in undoing the redirect I put in place for this title? I have started a discussion on the article talk page and strongly encourage you to express more clearly what you were getting at. Erechtheus (talk) 02:32, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Signature

Hi, can i ask you a slightly noob question? How do you get your signature to stay Orange and Blue, even after i have clicked it? I've been trying to work it out, but doesn't seem to work? My sig should be red, but all I see is the purple link that I have visited. I dont even know what it looks like, it could be ugly and annoying, but I cant see it to fix it... Any tips? Thanks Muchly ← κεηηε∂γ (shout at me) 08:19, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't know why it does that. As for your inquiry, I didn't quite understand what you meant. Could you please clarify? Basketball110 My story/Tell me yours 22:59, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for replying. Sorry, I dont think I worded it very well. Instead I will show you. ← κεηηε∂γ (shout at me) - Thats what I was looking for heh. I had <FONT> tags in the wrong place. Thanks anyway ← κεηηε∂γ (shout at me) 08:01, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

WP:MAVS Newsletter

The newsletter is almost ready - except for the feature article. I haven't had time to write it yet. You can if you'd like. I had to double-column the news because of length. --Shruti14 t c s 04:40, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

TV [[[characters]] from other soap operas on My Beloved Girlfriend

On My Beloved Girlfriend, Allison Perkins and Alexis Barryworth were talking about Candela Springknot's mental state in Guiding Light Sanitorium in a hotel in Brierdale, Florida. What if I have Adam Chandler talk to Stanley Livingston about their lives at his mansion? Can I do that in my story? Ericthebrainiac (talk) 23:37, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Don't Forget!

Don't forget to keep me posted on what happens on Passions because I can't find a house that has DirecTV in order to find out for myself. Ericthebrainiac (talk) 00:04, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Status

The reason it does that is because StatusBot has never changed your status from online to offline. When it does that, it'll create the page and display a date. However, if I'm not mistaken, we don't actually have to use that little box after all, instead, I'm adding a different line of code to each page that should do the same trick at WP:HAU without actually having to show that box.

Edit Summary

Erm? -- RyRy5 (talkReview) 01:39, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

It's okay, really. I just thought you lost your temper but it was just a removal of vandalism. Also, rememeber not be so scarcastic or else others will think you loose your WP:COOL easily. That can really affect your RFA. Have you thought about getting an admin caoch? Also, when you do an RFA again (which I hope is when an admin thinks your ready), please ask me to nominate you. -- RyRy5 (talkReview) 01:45, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Galapagos Islands / NBA

Sorry for the late reply, I think a Galapagos Islands Wikiproject might be a bit narrow. WikiProject Ecuador already covers the islands, but you could form a Galapagos Islands taskforce within the Ecuador project.

Another note. Do you think it's too early to create game log templates for the next NBA season (08-09)? It seems a bit far off and NBA hasn't even generated the season schedule yet. (Look here). I've seen similar templates for the 08-09 NHL season prodded. Cheers. Trance addict - Tiesto - Above and Beyond 21:52, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Do you know when does NBA release the next season's schedule? Is it after the playoffs or mid-summer (e.g. July, August)? Perhaps, we can pre-enter the data into the templates so they don't require as much work when somebody updates the templates next season. Cheers.

Thanks for asking about my edit on Johan Lædre Bjørdal. I assumed that the link was an indicator that the page was to be a translation of the one on the Norwegian site -- I have not often seen reference links from other-language Wikipedias, though I see from here that they are permitted.

I have added back the categorization and link disambiguation that were removed by your revert. -- KathrynLybarger (talk) 18:54, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
