Done Kukini 23:20, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, that's what we're looking for.  :) User:Zoe| ^(talk) 02:36, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

That's okay, we were all new once :) Though I'll disagree that certain angles of news are ignored. -- Golbez 23:47, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

What's that a prime example of? It hasn't been overlooked at all. It's on CE. It just wasn't ITN material yet. -- Golbez 23:52, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your help. How do you do the "revert to" command? Is that an editor command that is earned? Kukini 03:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

There is an admin command that makes it easier, but I'm not an admin. Adminship can be earned by it takes several months and at least 1000 or 2000 edits. But anyone can revert. You can look at the history and click on the timestamp of the last good version (the one you want to revert the page to). Then, the click "edit this page" at the top of that version. You'll get a warning saying you're editing an old version. Just post something like "reverted to someUser version" or "reverted vandalism" in the edit summary, submit, and you're done. joturner 03:25, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Please stop. Unless you are pepared to list every single time somebody is killed in Iraq, your choice of one item is showing your agenda. I am anti this war, but I am also against POV pushing, which is what you are doing. Also note that there is a three revert rule, and you have reverted three times in the past 24 hours. If you revert again, you will be blocked for violating the rule. User:Zoe| ^(talk) 03:39, 6 January 2006 (UTC) }

AND...HOW MANY TIMES have you reverted, based on a POV. It IS significant history. Not a POV. Why don't your millions of reversions count. I see them as oppressive. Kukini 03:42, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Yes, Kukini. As you are a new editor to Wikipedia, it is important that you become familiar with the three-revert rule. Zoe, I know Kukini just reverted the article again, but please do not initiate a block for him; I am certain he didn't know. And Zoe, by continuing with the reversion, you too are violating the three-revert rule.

Kukini, I will have to agree with Zoe on this one. This is a war (or one-siding bombing if you prefer). People die all the time; there is nothing extra special about this event. joturner 03:44, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, 3RR doesn't apply to admins reverting vandalism. I warned him. He's blocked for 24 hours. User:Zoe| ^(talk) 03:46, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Fine, but I feel strongly that adding a news article about an accidental massacre was not vandalism. Your edits, Zoe, did not feel very equitable. Peace. Kukini 03:49, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

For example, why not also delete this?:

• • Around 130 Iraqis and 7 U.S. soldiers are killed in a series of explosions throughout the country.

The item you mention could be removed, and I wouldn't object, though it does seem to have a little more historical importance. User:Zoe| ^(talk) 21:11, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

I agree, all deaths are equivalent, but we would have to keep track of every single death in Iraq on the page, and that's not historical, unfortunately. User:Zoe| ^(talk) 21:38, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

The best place to report repeat vandalism is at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Admins tend to keep track of that page. User:Zoe| ^(talk) 20:03, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Heh, i noticed, don't worry, it's cool. Logan1138 16:45, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi again,

I guess it was a bit confusing to learn how to get on your Talk page as there was no direct reference to it on your page , but I guess I managed to figure out that your talk page is basically accessed by "discussion" link on your page. So I guess I am learning! I think over time I will learn the ins and outs of how to navihgate , function and maybe even contribute to it.

Thank you again, hadjibaba. 209.172.144.203 17:50, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

The way it was written was one sided with derogatory comments such as "supporters of the status quo". I attempted to bring some balance to the article. It probably needs a controversy section with both for and against. By the way, I also wrote the section on lethal injection drugs... I used to moonlight in a neurosurgical ICU and I managed patients in medical induced comas. In addition, I have lots of experience with give phenobarbital for DTs. The original is on my blog. :) Either way, I was just seeing how wikipedia works. If it eventually gets modifed by everyone to be completely against lethal injection without balance, there is no point...

Apologies, I thought you were goading Zordrac ( talk · contribs) there, he was blocked and was using that IP. Although it's generally frowned upon by custom unless there's a good reason(like the one above) or it's your own user/user talk space, there's nothing against it on WP:TP. Karm a fist 03:57, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Oh, speaking of welcoming, I was wondering if you do it often. I seem to have the record. Karm a fist 04:00, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

I was wondering if you could answer my question: Are you trying to piss off Zordrac? Karm a fist 04:27, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Nope, I don't even know who that is. I just noted eidts with no comments from an IP. Kukini 20:53, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

No worries, just remember that except on your user page, your edits are pretty much open game, even though comments are almost never removed unless there's a very good reason. Karm a fist 05:31, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Hello, and thank you for the double hello in the course of two days.

• I have no idea what the above is referring to here. Kukini 07:45, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

As I remember, the last spam that was handed out was on the 20th of December last year, so I think it's time for another update. First and foremost, the new Advisory Council and Administrator General have been elected. They consist of myself as Admin General and FireFox, Titoxd, Flcelloguy and Karmafist as the Advisory Council. We as a group met formally for the first time on the 31st of Decembe. The minutes of this meeting can be found at WP:ESP/ACM. The next one is planned for tonight (Sunday 29 January) at 20:30 UTC and the agenda can be found at WP:ESP/ACM2.

In other news, Karmafist has set up a discussion about a new personal attack policy, which it can be found here. Other new pages include an introductory page on what to do when you sign up, So you've joined Esperanza... and a welcome template: {{ EA-welcome}} (courtesy of Bratsche). Some of our old hands may like to make sure they do everything on the list as well ;) Additionally, the userpage award program proposal has become official is operational: see Wikipedia:Esperanza/User Page Award to nominate a userpage or volunteer as a judge. Also see the proposed programs page for many new proposals and old ones that need more discussion ;)

Other than that, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and wish you an Esperanzially good new WikiYear :D Thank you! -- Cel e stianpower ^háblame 16:57, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your welcome note. I am trying to add information about Garden Eel - actually, not information, since I don't have any, but I do have a photo of them that I uploaded. Image:FH000014.jpg. Now what to I do? There is not a page for Garden Eel, and maybe there should not be - perhaps it should be under Eel? I'm not sure! Any help would be good - thank!

Hello, I've been just contacted as an anonymous contributor. I'm just curious why I was contacted exactly now, when I have contributed to Wikipedia for ages. Has Wikipedia's policy changed, or perhaps I've transgressed some kind of a "contrubution quota"?

I'm really intimidated by the wealth of knowledge and the esoteric nature of wikipedia, but I'm determined to learn.

Nicholas Mann 05:16, 31 January 2006 (UTC) (hope that worked)

Thank you very much for the welcome and for the explanation concerning it. I must acknowledge that I enjoyed feeling more anonymous, and less community-bound. My work with Wikipedia has gone on for many years and from many IP addresses, but it has had a very low intensity :) (a small correction or note now and then), and so I intend it to stay for the time being. Thus, I think I'll wait with the registration. Thank you once again, and I wish you luck with your noble cause! :)

Thanks for the welcome!

I'd already found a couple of those helpful pages on my own, but it's nice to have the links all there. I'm certainly enjoying my Wikipedian experience so far. It's a great project! Anyhow, I'll keep you in mind if I run into any trouble... All the best! JonathanDS 14:47, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your help on the school counseling article. I think it needs be more neutural and talk about the traditional approaches vs. the newer approaches to school counseling. It may need to be simplified by removing jargon as well. Also, I would like to do a School counselor article in the simple English version of wikipedia. whicky1978 00:05, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Hello - thanks for the welcome. I am pretty new, and appreciate the assistance that has been given. Right now, I am sticking to editing the page that interests me most (James Blunt), but have been doing little tours around to see where else I might have some useful information.

Quick question - on the discussion page, it has been pretty well agreed that James Blunt was born in 1974, and I have noted that each time I go back and re-edit that particular point. Is there anything else I can do to let the other users know why the date keeps being edited back to 1974? (Note - his official website does not give his date of birth.) Thanks again!

Hi,

Thank you for the welcome, I have submitted my first article (Actually prior to your welcome) and got a notability tag from User:Perfecto I made some changes and added a discussion to the page cariblist.com trying to validate my reasons for its inclusion, I then politely requested perfecto review (his/her) opinion of the page, they continue to disagree with me User:deepers may I ask your opinion of the page. Thank you in advance.

you had put an AfD tag on this but hadn't yet written the nomination. I speedy userfied it to User:Jikson26 so an AfD is unneeded. -- W.marsh 06:18, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

This was a rather fine point really. My rule of thumb is that if someone creates an article with the same name as their username, and it's a non-notable biography, it should be userfied. Non-admins can just add the {{userfy}} tag. An AfD is valid too, often it'll just get voted delete, but I think userfying is better personally. -- W.marsh 06:23, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

I have a term entry which needs to have a hyphen to reflect it's description accuratly. I can change the article but not the term itself. How do I do this? jVirus 23:10, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Kukini : The article is metamodel. I need to change the refrence from Metamodel to Meta-model (with the hypen). This is consistant with all known refrences. I have as well consulted with other associates. We are actually debating whether it should be more specifically labeled "Meta-model for Therapy" somehow. As this is also consistant. I definatly need to change it to "Meta-model".

• got it Kukini thx anyway :)

Hey Kukini, Where does a person go to report personal attacks? ie. language. Also if you want to help out on an article that is hot in debate you can try neuro-linguistic programming. This is an article that I am watching much. There is already and official moderator "Voice of ALL" and one that seems to be a helping mod. Anyway it is a funny article and probably could use more impartials. Whatever Voice of All thinks. There is just lots of namecalling. It drives me nuts and I just am going to report it when I see it. Non direct I guess I can deal with, but when it is blatent name calling, that is just out of bounds. jVirus 21:48, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Seriously I didn't overwrite your name. I never got an edit conflict over it. Dr Debug ( Talk) 00:01, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Maybe it was too close together. Your edit was 3941074-4 and mine was 3941076-9 The last digit is not relevant so there was only one database update in between. Dr Debug ( Talk) 00:10, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

I personally feel that Welcoming is a nice thing to do here as well. My main interest is in politics, but I don't like the way it tends to turn into edit wars here and frankly I can't be bothered too much about that either. Helping people and welcoming is a lot nicer and it is very necessary task. Wikipedia isn't just about writing articles, but also in trying to keep the place together a bit. At least that's my opinion. Dr Debug ( Talk) 00:56, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi again Esperanzians! Well, since our last frolic in the realms of news, the Advisory Council has met twice more (see WP:ESP/ACM2 and WP:ESP/ACM3). As a result, the charter has been ammended twice (see here for details) and all of the shortcuts have been standardised (see the summary for more details). Also of note is the Valentines ball that will take place in the Esperanza IRC channel on the 14th of February (tomorrow). It will start at 6pm UTC and go on until everyone's had enough! I hope to see you all there! Also, the spamlist has been dissolved - all Esperanzians will now recieve this update "newsletter".

The other major notice I need to tell you about is the upcoming Esperanza Advisory Council Elections. These will take place from 12:00 UTC on February 20th to 11:59 UTC on February 27th. The official handing-over will take place the following day. Candidates are able to volunteer any time before the 20th, so long as they are already listed on the members list. Anyone currently listed on the memberlist can vote. In a change since last time, if you have already been a member of the leadership, you may run again. Due to the neutrality precident, I will not vote for anyone.

Hey, thanks for the welcome! I must admit though that I've been "lurking" here on Wikipedia for a long time. Mostly just reading, but I did make some very minor anonymous edits (mostly spelling, grammar, etc) and suggestions on talk pages (one thing that really bothers me is people interjecting political POV on Current Issue pages). I'm ashamed to tell my "Wikiholic" score so I decided I better register for an account.

Hello Kukini! How kind of you to notice and say so. FloNight ^talk 11:07, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Since you welcomed me to Wikipedia and since you told me to leave something on your talk page in case of questions, here are a few questions from me. I did go through the style guidelines, but when I could not find the answers I was looking for, I decided to try this route:

I am well aware that since there is only one English Wikipedia, there will never be total agreement on spelling of certain words (humour vs. humor, realise vs. realize, etc.) and I agree with what I have read in the guidelines on that topic. For example: Even if my preferred spelling is "realise", I will still change a solitary "-ise" on a page to "-ize" if it is surrounded by "American English spelling". And I understand that WITHIN an article, consistency is the rule of thumb in 99% of the cases. However, there are still some things about which I am unclear:

Capitalisation: Is there a guideline on this? Is November spelt with an uppercase or lowercase N? What about South, Friday, ... ? If I have missed a page addressing this in the guidelines, please just answer it by giving me the link if that is more convenient.

Possessives: I was taught that possessives in English are always "'s", unless there are specific words for them. Specific words would include "my" (not "I's") and (probably the most obvious example) "its" (not "it's"). I was also taught that the same holds for words ending in "s", although I have often seen "'" instead of "'s" being used in those cases. Is there a "rule" in Wikipedia on this? More specifically, if someone is the child of someone called "Jones", is it "Jones's child" or "Jones' child"? As an extreme, in the case of a company called "McDonald's", would it be "McDonald's's menu", "McDonalds's menu", "McDonald's' menu", or... . Yes, I know this can be circumvented by using different phrasing, but sometimes those phrasings are... hmm... "awkward".

SI abbreviations... like "m" for metre/meter, "g" for gramme/gram, and so on. Is the preferred style "100 m" or "100m"?

Plurals: "1900s" or "1900's"? "UFOs" or "UFO's"?

Related to the "UFOs/UFO's" example: "UFO" or "U.F.O."? "US" or "U.S."? And so on.

My apologies if all this has already been addressed somewhere in the editing/style guidelines, but, in that case, maybe questions like the ones I asked should somehow be made more visible, easier to find? Because I DID look for the answers to all these questions before bothering you.

Oh (edit), one more: If I understood correctly, the rule is not to use abbreviations like "etc.", "e.g.", "i.e.", and so on... . Is that right? In that case, I have "no further questions", because my question was really about what to do when something like "etc." appears at the end of a sentence. Would it be followed by a full stop ("period") such as "etc..", or is the second period left out in those cases? I guess I'll use common sense in those cases and simply replace it by "and so on.", thus circumventing "etc.." versus "etc.". :)

OK... sorry... one more: The comma. Is there a guideline related to this? More specifically, in a list of 3 or more items where the last 2 are separated (or joined...) by an "and" or "or", do "we" use a comma? Is it "aaa, bbb, and/or ccc" or "aaa, bbb and/or ccc"? (Yes, I know... when taken literally, the only correct LOGICAL reply to this is "yes" :P).

Thanks again.

Regarding this article, I saw that the original editor was reverting it. But in his latest revision he stuck a "hangon" template on it. Since the article is still mostly nonsense and non notable bio, I'm sure it will still get deleted. On the article's talk page, he begged for 24 hours but gave no explanation as to why. I guess he wants the subject of the article to see his little love note.

This article is proposed for deletion because, as stated in the article, it has no meaning. Please do not waste your time adding info to an article that will probably be deleted anyway.

I may have had you confused with another user. I apologize for any trouble I may have caused you. Thanks for that! I appreciate being notified when I make mistakes... VincentGross 06:46, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Could you tell me the name of the article, though? I am still having trouble searching for a user's specific edits... Thanks.

You definitely made a good call on that one. It seems like nonsense to me, which is definitely criteria for speedy delete. Well done. And by the way thanks for reminding me to use the tildes. Sometimes I forget. VincentGross 07:09, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome, Kukini!

The subject basically says it all. Out of curiosity, how did I come to your attention? I'm more of a browser than an editor, generally.

Thanks for the welcome - although your talk page must be getting a bit "samey" these days. Maybe an idea to add a table ("People I've Welcomed") to your main page that we can add signatures to. 11:57, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Hello, i'm back here to ask you something. Can i use the same user in different wikipedia projects, such as english wikipedia and spanish wikipedia? Or i need a new user? Thanks, Moonkey 14:41, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi Kukuni, and thanks for welcoming me into the wonderful world of Wikipedia. I'm sorry I've taken so long to reply to you; no excuse. Squamate 15:00, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
