Roman Catholic Church

Dear Lucille, got your message - no problem! I just finished with the other peer review comments left for me so I am ready for more! Please come take a look at the page at your convenience and let me know what you think. Thanks for the time and attention. :) NancyHeise ^talk 23:28, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

The article is Roman Catholic Church? What a coincidence, because recently (probably a day or two ago) I stumbled upon the article and was surprised it wasn't featured! I took a look at the PR comments, but can't suggest anything explicit that needs improvement. Keep up the good work! :-) —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 00:11, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Wow - that is the nicest compliment and very encouraging. Your opinion is very valuable to me. I also want to mention that my eldest daughter is looking at universities and considering University of Alaska in Anchorage (because we spend our summers in AK). She is also an accomplished artist and virtuoso pianist. I tried to get her involved in Wikipedia but she does not have time because she also works and volunteers. Are you a student at University of Alaska? Do you recommend it? NancyHeise ^talk 00:24, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

As a matter of fact, I do! UAA is excellent, especially for Humanities and the Social Sciences. Whatever school you choose though, I wish the best of luck to your daughter. :-) —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 00:35, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, her father and I were kind of hoping she would stay a little closer to home - Alaska is a really long flight for us, longer than if we were to go to Europe and just as expensive. Thanks for your encouraging words and I wish you the best. NancyHeise ^talk 00:38, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

No problem. I can't say I'm the best of all writers, but if you ever need any help with this (I know writing an article by oneself isn't easy!) I'd be glad to assist you. Best, —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 00:42, 21 September 2008 (UTC).

Thank you for your offer. I will feel free to come post a note on your page if I need any more help. I think we are just about to send it up to FAC maybe in a couple more weeks so I would appreciate if you might take a final look around then and let us know what you think. I have worked on one successful FA, Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Miami and I brought Roman Catholic Church up to GA. I have worked on several other articles but I have not invested the effort into the others as I have with these. It has been an interesting and fun experience for me and I have met a lot of very nice people on Wikipedia. I am surprised at how many college students are here. I think it is a very healthy hobby for any student to have. NancyHeise ^talk 01:23, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

(Outdent) I'll try to help out wherever I can at the Featured candidacy. And I absolutely agree; in fact, some of our best editors here are college students. :-) Cheers, and best wishes. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 05:12, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

No worries

Thanks for your note Mizu, and please don't feel under any pressure from me ;) I'm really busy at the moment too, mainly with the September intake of new apprentices at work, so can't guarantee my commitment to anything on WP right now. Maybe it would be easiest if you just drop me a note when you're ready, and we'll give that bloody barber (pun intended) his final push to FA. Best regards, EyeSerene^talk 09:44, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Roger that, ES! Whenever's convenient. Cheers, —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 20:15, 26 September 2008 (UTC).

The Duchess

Hey. Saw a pre-screening of "The Duchess" and it was quite good although thick in style. Perhaps you might like it when it opens. Best wishes. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 23:04, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, Bob. Sounds interesting. I'll try to fit it in with my schedule. :-) —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 21:41, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

My RfA

Thank you for supporting me in my RfA, which passed with a count of (154/3/2). I appreciate the community's trust in me, and I will do my best to be sure it won't regret handing me the mop. I am honored by your trust and your support. Again, thank you. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 18:20, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi Mizu. How are you? How's your RFA preps coming? Still looking at mid-Nov? You'll be a great admin. — Rlevse • Talk • 09:53, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey, Rlevse. I think November 16 would be just fine (if you're still up for it; I know not everyone would like to spend their birthday busy whipping up an RfA rather than going out to diner at Chili's with friends ;-)). I have a lot of catching up to do, though. I've been so busy I haven't managed to make more than a dozen edits in the past six weeks! If you have any suggestions, though, please tell me—I could use some pointers. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 19:09, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Nov 16 is still okay. Just make sure you're as active as possible the 30 days prior to that. And stay active in articles and admin areas, esp the concern areas from the first RFA. — Rlevse • Talk • 19:15, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

No worries. Time to do some adminny work. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 19:18, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

How do you ask someone to adopt you on Adopt-a-User?

How do you ask someone to adopt you on Adopt-a-User? (I am sorry to bother you with this.) Reliableforever (talk) 15:57, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Don't apologise! :-) It's fine that you came to ask me for help, don't feel like it's a bother. All you really have to do is ask nicely. From there they will decide whether they can adopt/wish to adopt you, and you're ready to go. Hope that was useful, —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 19:04, 4 October 2008 (UTC).

If a sentence on a Wikipedian article isn't true, can you erase it or is that vandalism?

Hi. (sorry to bother you again) but I have a question. I was reading the article on vandalism and it wasn't that quite clear but anyways here's the question: If a sentence on a Wikipedian article isn't true, can you erase it or is that vandalism? Reliableforever (talk) 19:47, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

If it's really obvious, (like saying that Satan is the son of Oprah Winfrey; this is a really popular one) you can go ahead and delete it. But if you're unsure about it, ask on the talk page and tag it with {{subst:dated|fact}}. Best, —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 19:50, 5 October 2008 (UTC).

Could you adopt me in Adopt-a-user?

Could you adopt me in Adopt-a-user? Reliableforever (talk) 20:32, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Sure, I wouldn't mind. :-) It'll be a little informal, though. What would you like to start with? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 20:36, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Do you mean like learning about Wikipedia? (i know what im asking is a stupid question) Reliableforever (talk) 20:39, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes, if there's anything you don't understand about the wiki, just ask. Do you know formatting? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 20:42, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

No. Reliableforever (talk) 20:43, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Not even a little? Here's the cheatsheet. As for Hypertext markup, we'll get to that later. How long have you been regularly editing? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 20:47, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I've had an account on Wikipedia for a year and pretty much just looked things up with it. I really don't know that much about wikipedia. I'm in the 6th Grade so I pretty much haven't had time to really go on wikipedia. I just go on it to look stuff up. By the way, Are 6th Graders even aloud on wikipedia? Reliableforever (talk) 20:54, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Haha. Well, technically speaking by (purported) national law you can't be under thirteen and have any account on the Internet, including things like Yahoo! or Myspace, but we're pretty lenient about that at Wikipedia. Anyone can edit and have an account here, but it's generally preferred that administrators are over eighteen, but there are no rules on this either. Given that there are fourteen-year-old college students out there, I think you could learn WikiFormatting and HTML with a little work. Have you read the cheatsheet? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 21:00, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Yep. Reliableforever (talk) 21:01, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Good. Now, the first thing I think you should learn is that when you're replying to someone on a talk page, you should indent you comment so as to make it clear who you're talking to. When you reply to me, indent your comment with two colons (:). For more information on this, look at WP:TALKPAGE. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 21:04, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

How do you add that template that says "this user was adopted by soso" (soso referring to whatever user adopted them)? Reliableforever (talk) 21:10, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

{{Adoptee|adopter's user name}}. Any more questions? By the way, when you want to tell someone what the code is for a template (ask I am now), use <no-wiki> (but without the dash).

Cheers! —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 21:19, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Could I put down that I was adopted by you? Reliableforever (talk) 21:22, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes, just replace the part that says "adopter's user name" with my username, Mizu onna sango15. Also, I should have been more clear about how you format replies. You add one more colon that the person who you are replying to you did. So when you reply to me now, add four colons, because I used three. This makes your comment appear under mine, and slightly more to the right. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 21:26, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

How do you get that thing that says "Status:Unknown"? Reliableforever (talk) 21:31, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

{{statustop|YOUR STATUS HERE}}. Mine says unknown because I don't have QUI installed. Do you run a Macintosh computer, or a PC? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 21:35, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

No. About the template that you told me about it doesn't work. Reliableforever (talk) 21:44, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

What exactly did you put on your userpage? It should work, provided you replace "YOUR STATUS HERE" with "online". I'd be able to help you further, though, if you told me whether you are using a Apple or a Personal computer. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 21:49, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I got it to work I erased the Your status here and forgot to put it to online. My mistake! Reliableforever (talk) 21:57, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

(Outdent) Ah. I probably should have been more clear on that, too. So, you know how to format comments, you know how to sign your name, can you create links? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:00, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

No. Reliableforever (talk) 22:03, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

No problemo. Just enclose double brackets ([[ and ]]) around whatever you want to link. For example, for the article about "foo", type in [[foo]]. Article titles are case-sensitive, so be careful. And make sure the article acutally exists, or you'll get a red link! —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:08, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

This section is getting long Should we continue it on my talk page? Reliableforever (talk) 22:12, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

There's no need (unless you really want to). I'll just add a section break. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:14, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Section break

So, what else do you want to know? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:14, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

How do you do a section break? Reliableforever (talk) 22:15, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

The exact same way you add a new heading. Just use double equal signs (==), and title the heading "section break". It's mainly used at the noticeboards when discussion gets to be extremely long, but it can be used just about anywhere that the sectin gets lengthly. Anything else? I really don't mind answering questions! —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:18, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

How do you categorize userboxes? Reliableforever (talk) 22:21, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Does WP:CATEGORY help with that question? If not, I'll do some more digging. It'd be essentially the same as with articles. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:25, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

No not really. I am going to play with my user page a little until I get it right. I'll tell you when I get it done. Reliableforever (talk) 22:28, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Of course—what was I thinking? Never mind, see Wikipedia:Userbox. Userboxes are already categorized. New userboxes are generally just presented at the new userboxes talk page, so you really don't need to put them in a category. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:32, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I'll try this tommorow. It's kinda hard to do espically if you have 153 userboxes. Reliableforever (talk) 22:39, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

(Outdent) Okay, no worries. Regards, —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:42, 5 October 2008 (UTC).

You can play the violin? Reliableforever (talk) 22:44, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Well anyways, I gotta go. Thanks for answering my questions. Reliableforever (talk) 22:53, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I do. Can you yourself? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 04:00, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

No, not really, I'm learning to play the clarinet in band. I wanted to play the flute,trombone or trumpet. Sadley I got the clarinet. We have to put them in cases and we have to carry them all day! I feel bad for the kids who are playing the trombone because the have to carry the case (which is big). Reliableforever (talk) 11:35, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Well I have to go because it's time for me to get ready for school. If you are online at 4:00 pm I will be online at 4:45 pm. Bye. Reliableforever (talk) 11:35, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Uh hey are you online right now? Reliableforever (talk) 21:34, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Now I am, but I won't be for long. As we (probably) have opposite time zones, 4:00 for me will not be 4:00 for you. Just try to be online when you can and ask me a question here. When I come online, I'll reply to it, and so on. Do you have any questions now? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 02:06, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Do you know what sockpuppets are? Reliableforever (talk) 21:43, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes. Since you asked, I assume you do not? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 04:01, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

No I don't know. Reliableforever (talk) 11:25, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

(Outdent) Well, a sockpuppet is essentially a banned or blocked user who created a new account so they can edit again. It's not allowed. However, there are good kinds of sockpuppets, too. It's all there at WP:SOCK. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 15:26, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

You got a thank you card!

Dear Mizu onna sango15, thank you so much for your words of support, kindness, and your trust in me. My request for Adminship has been closed, and the support the community has shown will be with me forever. I have no way to properly express how grateful I am, and all I can tell you is this: I shall try not to disappoint you nor anyone else with my use of the buttons... and if I mess up, please tell me! :) If you ever need my help, either for admin-related stuff or in any other way, you are welcome to ask, and I shall do my very best. Please take care. G.A.S 16:54, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

RFA Thanks

Mizu onna sango15, I'd like to thank you for voting in my RFA. Thanks also for expressing your trust in me, and I hope that I live up to your expectations.

Film title

Hello Lu. Good point on the film's title. I left comments there. It's a toss-up. I saw it in pre-screening. Best wishes. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 01:51, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Okay, no probs. I'll go visit the talk page in a short while. Cheers, and thanks. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 18:54, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

:-) --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 19:08, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

As a post-script to this, Lu, Summit Entertainment, the company which made the film uses two words in their copy despite their own poster which have them either jammed up against each other or as seemingly one word. " Sex Drive Release Date: October 17, 2008 ... Randy, raucous and unexpectedly romantic, SEX DRIVE follows three friends on the road trip of a lifetime!". Maybe it's like a Picasso painting. One never knows. Bests. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 19:52, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm sure it's just the style then. I should have known better—It would be akin to many other special formatting styles in the past companies have used to fashion logos, for example those of Toys Я Us and [Scrubs]! Thanks, —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 05:32, 14 October 2008 (UTC).

Good point, Lu. It's kind of goofy though. But the movie is hilarious in an off-colour way. Best Wishes. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 16:28, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Oh, Lu, I was thinking whilst walking just now, what is the linguistic technical word for a word which contains the object it's describing? Like the "h" in "chair" is a chair. ;) Bests. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 19:09, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure (I didn't quite catch your question)—do you mean onomatopoeia, or just any sort of word that has in it what it describes? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 13:28, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, Lu for your reply. No, it's not onomatopoeia. The latter case you mentioned. It's nothing to do with sounding. It's more to do with how it's written. Like the "h" in "chair" where the "h" is a chair which is what "chair" denotes. Where one of the letter shapes represents what the word means. I'll think of more examples. I just haven't found what the linguistic name is for it. Just in case you knew. Thanks and Best wishes. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 14:31, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Wow, I'm not sure. I didn't know there was a term for such a thing. Either way, I'm no linguist, so I couldn't help you there. Have you tried google? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 23:33, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

<exdent> There may or may not be a term for such a thing. That's the query. So far no one knows I've spoken with, including linguists, philologists, and semioticists. Framing the query on a search engine had already turned out to be a real challenge. Well, thanks very much, Lu. I'll let you know if I ever find out. Best wishes always and thanks for your replies on such a seemingly miniscule matter. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 01:17, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey

Hey are you online? (sorry to bother you but i'm so bored) Reliableforever (talk) 16:37, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Just so you know, I tend not to be online on weekday afternoons (usually just mornings and all day on the weekends) during the school year. Yeah, I'm really busy. But, we don't have to be online at the same time to continue. Just ask your question and I'll get to it whenever I come online. Wikipedia isn't like instant messaging—because you're not talking to others in real time, you don't have to be online at the same time as they are to talk. What did you want to ask? :-) —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 19:01, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Unencyclopedia. :( Why do they make Uncyclopedia it made me very upset I'm still upset. Why did they make it? It's evil. Why must they say all of that it hurt my feelings it really made me cry I'm still crying. Why do they have to be mean? Reliableforever (talk) 19:05, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Uncyclopedia was originally created as a parody of Wikipedia. It contains 'humorous' misinformation regarding subjects such as kittens, Yakov Smirnof, and other miscellaneous subjects. A lot of the content at Uncyclopedia is very adult-oriented, so I can see why you think it is evil. What page in particular made you sad? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 19:11, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Someone needs to erase that website I see why theres people blank the pages!They can't treat people this way! Reliableforever (talk) 19:43, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Treating whom that way? What does the page say, may I ask? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 19:45, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

They can't go around making fun of Jews. Jews are people too. Reliableforever (talk) 19:50, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

And what made me sad is there banning some people for no apparent reason. Reliableforever (talk) 19:52, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Ah, I see. Yes, Uncyclopedia is notorious for racial/ethnic 'jokes'. It's supposed to be funny, but I do agree that oftentimes they do cross the line. Then again, the creator of the page may be Jewish, so they might just be poking fun at themselves. Either way, Uncyclopedia was intended to be worth high shock value. As for the banning, though, I don't know why. You'd have to look into their history. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 20:00, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

I hope Mizu doesn't mind me butting in here ;) It's worth remembering that despite it's name and deliberately similar layout, Uncyclopedia has nothing to do with Wikipedia at all; we don't control it, write for it, or even read it (well, I suppose some of our editors might, but I don't know any that do!). It was originally created as somewhere to put the type of stupid rubbish we don't allow on Wikipedia. It's supposed to be satirical - that is, it pokes fun at things by exaggerating them in a witty way... although personally I think it's lost its way and now just tries too hard to offend people. No-one is supposed to take it seriously though, so I wouldn't give them the satisfaction of letting it upset you ;) EyeSerene^talk 21:18, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Haha. Well put. I guess I neglected to mention that is is not affiliated with the Wiki in any way. ;-) Do you have any other questions, RF? Oh, and EyeSerene, if you want to go for the FA push, now is good for me! —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:31, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

How do you make an article semi-protected? Reliableforever (talk) 13:50, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

(Outdent) Well, only administrators can do that. It comes with all the other admin 'buttons' that you get after completion of an RfA. Did you want to protect something? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 17:56, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I wanted the Jew (disambiguation) article to be semi-protected due to vandalism. Reliableforever (talk) 20:40, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Ohhh, I see. Just follow the instructions and post your request at WP:RFPP, they should get to it as fast as possible. Make sure to clearly state the problem (meaning, vandalism) so they know why you want it to be semi-protted. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 03:16, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

I can't do it because I don't know how to format it. Reliableforever (talk) 12:00, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Is the vandalism still going on? I'll do it for you if it is, and I'll show you how it's done once I've finished. :-) —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 13:25, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Musical - "Stinkfoot, a Comic Opera"

Hi Lu. Ever hear of this musical from the 1980s -- Stinkfoot, a Comic Opera ? Someone inserted it legitimately in the Homelessness article and referred to Mrs. Bag Bag. It's all okay, just thought you might be familiar with the musical.[1] Bests. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 21:34, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Hahaha. No, I haven't! I always enjoy a good musical; I'll see if my library has it. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 22:39, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

:-) I thought you might find it humorous. It was partially done by the inimitable Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band band member, Mr. Vivian Stanshall. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 00:23, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Ha! Have to check it out. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 01:18, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

:-) --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc (talk) 03:07, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

I saw your name...

on an edit for the Sex Drive movie and I thought about 'ya. How are you?

Hey, Elite. :-) Did you see the film? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 02:32, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

No, actually. I reverted vandalism on the page. xD

Good luck. My first job was at McDonald's when I was sixteen, and I hated it. I stuck with it until college, though! (But really, I hope you enjoy it. :-))

As for the Musical Theater Barnstar—I've been so busy I hadn't found time to even award it. But I think I can put it to use. Thanks for the reminder! —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 02:40, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Believe me, I have NO plans for working in food service. My sister worked at K-Mart, but Walmart uses child labor. So, I'm going to work there. xD

You're welcome!

Ack, L337, I think you got autosigned out! Always check the little box above the edit window! :-)

As a word of advice, though, mind those child labor laws. [2] [3] There are certain things they cannot ask you to do until you're eighteen, and there can be legal consequences if the laws are not adhered to, so make sure you know 'em. Cheers! —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 02:51, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Oh, believe me...

I'll be as legal as the dungeons in the Eletronics department. ;D

Ohoho! Well just be sure to enjoy it, even if they throw you in the horrid cell of death hidden behind the video game shelf. Happy editing, —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 03:08, 13 October 2008 (UTC).

Userboxes

I did it! I finally got my userboxes oranginized! Reliableforever (talk) 11:55, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Congrads! Did you use the box on my page, or a table? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 13:23, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

I used the box on your page by looking at the edit this page link copied how you got the thing to categorize it and pasted it on my talk page. I also changed "Silly boxes" to My userboxes. I did not change anything on your userpage, even If I did I would tell you in advance. By the way you can trust me by the way because my username is "Reliableforever" NOT unreliableforever..Reliableforever (talk) 11:22, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Ha! Very nice. Just so you know, that's how many Wikipedians (including myself when I was a newbie) learn to edit; by 'mimicking' what others have done. There's nothing wrong with simply borrowing the text of another page, so of course I won't mind! My internet connection's been a little weird this week, so don't worry if I'm not active in the next week or so. Keep asking questions when you need to, and if it's urgent, I would reccomend asking at WP:HD or User talk:Rlevse. :-) Cheers! —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 23:22, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Rfa Spam

Thank you so much for your support on my RFA, which today passed unanimously. I will do my best to make sure that I don't let any of you down. If you ever need any help with anything, feel free to ask me, i'll be happy to. Thanks again--Jac16888 (talk) 17:17, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

You got a cookie

hehe, I just gave you the cookie because I am bored. Hope the cookie tastes good (there is nothing worse than eating a cookie that tastes bad.) Well anyways just seeing if it works.Reliableforever (talk) 11:19, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, Reliableforever! —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 23:24, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Barnstars

How do you get barnstars? Reliableforever (talk) 15:03, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Barnstars are awards given by other Wikipedia members for excellence in writing, copyediting, image design, and other categories. Although they are given to editors who have shown superior skill in editing, if you don't get one, don't feel bad! Many WikiGnomes such as myself go unnoticed for a very long time, despite the creation of barnstars intended for such minor editors. These stars are normally given by random editors in recognition of good work, so there isn't anything in particular you must do to gain one besides dedication to quality article-writing. Does that help? —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 23:29, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

All the kids in my school are saying this:

Kool-Aid Jammerz Oh-Yeah! Reliableforever (talk) 22:00, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

What hapened in the library 2 days ago

There's this picture of Darth Vader in the library and it says "I want you to use the force and read" and a boy farted on the picture because he's weird. Another kid tried to get a book of the shelf and all the books around it fell off and the kid just ran and left it. And I just walked past this book on History and I walked backward and I purposely knocked it over because well, I don't know why I did it. I wish there were some Star Wars books or something. Reliableforever (talk) 10:55, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Lol. Your library doesn't have Star Wars books? (I'm at my library right now because my internet connection's still down.) —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 16:20, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Nope, but I wish they did... By the way, I am going on people's talk pages and thanking them for reverting vandalism. I don't know why come to think of it. Well I had a bad day today. Tommorrow (Friday) I am off (only the teachers have to be there). Reliableforever (talk) 21:16, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Peer review invitation

Hi, your name was on the list of volunteers as someone skilled in copyediting. You might be interested in the article Gerard K. O'Neill, currently up for review. If you have time, could you give it a read and let me know if you see any areas that need improvement? I would be especially interested to know if there are any parts you think are too technical for a biography. Thank you. Wronkiew (talk) 04:57, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

A challenge for you.

If you can read EVERYTHING ON my userpage, you will get a suprise. Just leave something on my talk page saything that you read everything on my userpage. Reliableforever (talk) 10:25, 24 October 2008 (UTC) :)

And your suprise is...

Congratulations and your suprise is...NOTHING. lol. About that userbox, I didn't know that. Thanks for pointing that out so I can erase it. Also, how do you get color on your signature? I keep on trying and it won't work. Reliableforever (talk) 22:08, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey, Reliable. Sorry about the tardiness! I found out my whole LAN is experiencing technical difficulty, so communication may be slow for a while. I'll try to gain access as much as possible in the meantime. :-)

You use color in a signature the same way you use color with any other piece of text. For example, <font color = "red">asdfghjkl</font> renders the text "asdfghjkl" red, like this: asdfghjkl. Thusly, to make your siggy cyan blue, key in [[User:Reliableforever|<font color="cyan">Reliableforever</font>]]. It ends up as Reliableforever. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 04:16, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

HELP!

An user ip address reverted my edit on PG (disambiguation)when it wasn't vandalism there subject was "rvv" and I checked it out (PG disambiguation is on my watchlist) and it turned out they reverted mine? All I did was add(i didn't blank the page or erased anything) was Peter Griffin. I undid there version but WHO IN THE HECK GAVE THEM AUTHORITY TO ERASE MY EDITS????? AND MOST IMPORTANTLY WHO SAID ADDING "PETER GRIFFIN" TO PG IS VANDALISM? --Reliableforever (talk) 17:03, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, while anyone has the authority to revert edits, your entry seems to be innocuous, although it is probably not very common and would need a citation or it may have to be removed. Either way, don't be upset about it; these things happen often and usually calm discussion with the reverter should resolve things. —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 04:52, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

45?48?

I don't know I just felt like typing that. It's funny. Really. You know you want to laugh. Reliableforever (talk) 23:01, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

BTW, Happy Halloween! I wonder if I could sell somethings while i'm at it (lol). It'll be like "Trick-or-treat! Thanks for the candy. I am wondering if you would like to buy some things off my brochure because we're raising money for better band equitment, you don't have to but I would like it if you did." lol. Reliableforever (talk) 22:06, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Hahaha. :-) Happy belated Halloween! —Mizu onna sango15^Hello! 23:45, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
