Help with Designing a Userbox

The Operation Brothers at Arms is starting to organize itself. Some of us felt that a user box for the project would be helpful in establishing ourselves. Would you be willing to help us out by helping to redesign my crummy userbox prototype in such a way that it looked more polished and professional.*

This user is a member of the American Civil War Sesquicentennial Project.

I understand that this is a bit of an imposing request, I just felt I could ask since you posted a discussion entry (link) that stated that you had helped others build theirs and I figured why not ask? Regardless of your decision, thank you for your considerationLeonidasSpartan (talk) 19:47, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Sure, no problem, I am glad to help. What do you have in mind? Something cleaner and more like this Wikiproject box?

Armageddon

Hello Ahunt, well I saw you corrected some of my posts, I thank you for that. I just signed up yesterday and saw a couple of old version application screenshots and I uploaded new ones I had. Besides, on Audacity and Pidgin they weren't much of new versions rather than a picture on different platforms to inform people of their diversity of platform support. I would appreciate further help with how to help more wiki and get more involved in a meaningful way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elijah El Lazkani (talk • contribs) 08:14, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Ahunt for the post, I will edit the page as soon as I get the time and ideas on what to put there... I would appreciate it if you would take a look at Transmission and tell me what you think of my adds. Thanks again. And I do agree on what you said, I am lucky I got you to correct my posts and put me on the right track... - — Preceding unsigned comment added by ThyArmageddon (talk • contribs)

Google Chrome

Personally I don't think the Chromium alpha screenshot added much either. Should I just swap out the main screenshot with the Ubuntu version? TheTechFan (talk) 19:41, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

That would be fine with me. I just don't think we need two shots of the same version - they don't look much different on the different platforms. - Ahunt (talk) 19:44, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

What about the Mac screenshot in the User Interface section? TheTechFan (talk) 19:48, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

I missed that one down there! Yeah that is 5.0 as well and it looks the same, too! It would make more sense to have images of older versions for historical interest, but I don't see any point in having three versions of 5.0 on different platforms. Starts to look like Mac vs Windows vs Linux promotion more than anything, don't you think? - Ahunt (talk) 19:51, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for the userbox award. Much appreciated :) --Footyfanatic3000 ^{(talk  · contribs)} 17:02, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Wikiage

I don't follow what you did with the Wikiage move. I sensed I wasn't doing things right, but can you help me out here? Thanks. kcylsnavS{^screech_harrass} 19:15, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, I need you to dumb it down for me. Still don't understand. kcylsnavS{^screech_harrass} 21:31, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

FireFly Balloons

Ahunt, I am in the process of authoring a page on FireFly balloons. The page and the manufacturer are significant to the sport of hot air ballooning in that many of the features of modern hot air balloons can be traced to TBW/FireFly designs. As a balloonist I can tell you that this is useful information. You suggested I work on the article in user space, but I am uncertain as to how I do this? I have been working on the article 'on-line' as a result and have now rebuilt the page following deletion. I am getting a bit frustrated here... Any suggestions greatly appreciated Thanks DrWhatIKnow 8:41 PDT 9 Jun 2010 —Preceding unsigned comment added by DrWhatIKnow (talk • contribs) 15:41, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

You're welcome. I believe that it's never right to speedy delete an article under criterion A7 if it shows some evidence of its subject being notable, and there's enough coverage here that the company may well be notable. Nyttend (talk) 22:21, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

Piper PA-35 Pocono

Hi Ahunt. Not sure why the 'citation' tag was put there again. Is the image I uploaded not enough proof? --Antheii (talk) 22:29, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Understood; but then the citation should be with that part which existed previously, not with newly added part about the aircraft moved to Widelka - where I took the image myself. Or is that also not verifiable enough? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Antheii (talk • contribs) 23:15, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

OK, then I just need to dig deeper into and, and try to find some (English language) sources on that first part. But thanks for clarifying! --Antheii (talk) 11:30, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Malware template

Thanks for expanding the new template!

I think the best order for the sections is a usefully browsable one – an order in which it would make sense for a general audience to read. I adjusted the groups and expanded some more based on the Malware article. Maybe you could try to improve the order if you don't think it's logically browsable now. --Pnm (talk) 02:29, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Question

What Megabox? You mean the shopping mall? Kayau Voting IS evil 05:57, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

No, there is a huge userbox on that page that seems to stop most page readers dead - I just moved your new userboxes to the top of the page so that people will see them! - Ahunt (talk) 10:21, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:12, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Re: your edit to Cessna 421

G'day again from Oz; your recent undo on the Cessna 421 article is one of dozens and dozens made by the same editor. I have undone a few myself, there are at least two IP adresses involved - check my edit history immediately prior to my post on your page. It's now time for me to vamoose for a while but I will have another look later. YSSYguy (talk) 08:22, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your note - I did go though many that he or she made and they are all the same thing - seems to be just adding a bunch of NZ air carriers. I left them where they matched what was already there, but otherwise removed them. - Ahunt (talk) 10:12, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Re: your edit to Gatineau Park was frivolous

Your edit to Gatineau Park was redundant and superfluous: you changed "planned to be" with "intended to be," arguing that "the park didn't plan anything." Well, that part of the sentence is passive; anyone reading the previous formulation would not assume that the park planned anything.

You should avoid frivolous edits. I will let this one pass, since it changes nothing to the meaning (six of one; half a dozen of the other...) --Stoneacres (talk) 14:24, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Wonderful. Thanks.

Wonderful. Thanks. Sorry ... bit of a nube at this stuff and just finding my way. --Triton Rocker (talk) 23:51, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Dash-8

Hello,

I can assure you that my posts on the Dash-8 aircraft operated by Transport Canada are not "spammy". The I.P. address used is from Transport Canada, and I myself am an employee who works with those aircraft. The Surveillance System used is most assuredly the MSS 6000, and our aircraft are the first in the world to use it in conjuction with Swift Broadband enabled SATCOM (provided by EMS), as it was a stipulation of our contract with SSC.

As a side-note, a little known fact is that A/C 882 C-GCFJ is currently assisting the United States Government in monitoring the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. As it turns out, our aircrafts capabilities far exceed anything the U.S. has to offer.

Regards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.103.96.11 (talk) 23:46, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Who you work for is beside the point. The information has already been removed before by consensus as adding nothing of value to the article. If you want to add it back you need to discuss on the talk page and gain a new consensus to include it. - Ahunt (talk) 23:49, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

VGASAVE

Um...'kay? I reverted vandalism to the page. Once. I'm not remotely 'involved' beyond having reverted vandalism to it. HalfShadow 16:37, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your note. To avoid the appearance of WP:Canvassing whenever I notify editors about an AfD I notify all of them that have worked on a page, regardless of the magnitude of their contributions. You are still welcome to voice an opinion on the article if you would care to. - Ahunt (talk) 17:35, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Euroradar CAPTOR

My edits to Euroradar CAPTOR are indeed constructive because they are reverts of user:Vedant's random anti-British revenge edits for past disputes. 88.106.127.218 (talk) 22:35, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Your edit warring is not justified. If you feel you have a case to make then take it to the talk page to gain consensus. - Ahunt (talk) 22:36, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

The countries are not listed by alphabetical order because Spain is listed before Italy. 88.106.127.218 (talk) 22:38, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

I should have got consensus for restoring the article to its original state prior to Vedant's edit? I thought you were supposed to gain consensus to make a change rather than revert one. You were in such a hurry to defend Vedant's revenge edits that you failed to notice the countries weren't listed by alphabetical order, like you said they were, and just went straight ahead accusing me of vandalism. 88.106.127.218 (talk) 22:56, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

sigh... Thanks for intervening Ahunt. I believe I have made my opinion known on WT:AIR and I'll continue to keep a close watch on Yattum. Vedant (talk) 23:05, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

NTF: the article this was uploaded for has been deleted, so the logo can also be deleted. - Ahunt (talk) 11:14, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Please explain

You reverted an edit and cited WP:EL. It's a long list, what is your point exactly? 85.76.38.140 (talk) 15:17, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your note. Wikipedia is not a collection of links and the one you added to that article did not meet the requirements of WP:EL. Most of the other ones in that article probably don't either, it is on my list to review them all and clean them up today. - Ahunt (talk) 15:35, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
