Loyola Seal
Personally, I find the logo more visually appealing. That's really the only reason I changed it. I agree the image was a bit big, but it could have been worse - the original was 1500px wide!
Anyway, I think that the seal image is too "crowded" and color-ridden -- see MIT for what I think is a good example of using a seal in a college's WP entry. The logo was obviously designed for four-color printing and instant identification, and I think it reads better on a computer screen. Plus, since Publications slaps it on anything and everything Loyola, it's a bit more recognized in that form. There's no real standard, though; Hofstra University uses the logo, MIT uses the seal AND the logo, Harvard University uses the shield, and Cooper Union uses a picture of the main building.
Interesting and somewhat related tidbit: they scraped the evergreens off the windows of the student center this semester and replaced them with Loyola logos. Seems like they're really focused on branding. --DCrazy talk/contrib 02:42, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
Re:Father mcginnisburg
Well, an admin finally found it and deleted it (perhaps because I accidentally posted a warning on Iron's user page instead of his talk page). If a user keeps removing a deletion tag, just post related warning messages from Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace (eg. {{drmspeedy}}, {{drmafd}}). After the "final" warning, post on WP:AIV. — TheKMantalk 01:34, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, in the end I wound up just posting a notice on the administrator's noticeboard Liamdaly620 01:40, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
- I guess that's what did it then. Keep up the good work, and see you 'round. — TheKMantalk 01:44, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
Vandalism
No problem! I hope you didn't see it, it was quite disturbing :-P --Lightdarkness 23:18, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Hah, that's neat. Thanks! --DCrazy talk/contrib 00:22, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Great work!!
Hi, it is great to see you fight vandalism left, right and center! May I also request you to place appropriate {{test}} messages on the talk page of the vandalising users? btw, I found your vandalism section about League of nations amusing - you may want to move it to WP:BJAODN. --Gurubrahma 06:54, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Welcome and thanks!
Thank you for your vandal fighting work, and selfishly especially your reversion of my user page. It's nice to know that RC patrol still works without me ;-) (tries to look important and needed). It seems you haven't been officially welcomed yet so below you will find my standard welcome note:
welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like it here and decide to stay.
Here are some tips:
- Take a look at the Simplified Ruleset.
- Read the Tutorial, How to edit a page, and the Manual of Style.
- Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
- Learn what the proper tags to place on stubs (short articles) are.
- Learn how Articles for deletion works.
- Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board.
- Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
- Use the Show preview button.
- Provide an Edit summary.
- Read the Picture tutorial for help with images and remember to add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload.
- Create a User page.
- Be bold.
- Ignore all rules.
- If you're ready for the complete list of Wikipedia documentation, there's also Wikipedia:Topical index.
If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.
If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. There are also the help pages for self-help and the village pump and IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance. You should also feel free to ask me on my Talk page.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes(~~~~) produces your name and the current date. Please do not add this signature to encyclopedia articles you may edit, however, even if you have created them. Wikipedia articles are owned by the community, not by any one person. Again, welcome! —WAvegetarian•CONTRIBUTIONSTALK• EMAIL• 07:27, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Please sign
Thanks for reverting the vandalism to the Gugliermo Scortella article! Please sign and date your warning notices with ~~~~ so that others looking into vandalism can easily discern the user's history of having been warned. Thanks again for being one of the good guys! --Kbh3rdtalk 06:21, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Re:Another godmode light
Hi, I saw your query on User_talk:Sam_Hocevar:
Please wait, reverting edits by undefined... Getting article history (/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Awesome&action=history&limit=50)... Error: Last editor is 24.92.249.34, not undefined!
I am guessing that you are also running Lupin's popups.js. This is a problem I had a while back, and there seems to be a conflict between the two scripts. A popups friendly alternative is available :-) Although I am surprised you have had it working at all recently, it seems to have been broken for me for some time.
Anyway, you could try this: in your monobook.js, substitute:
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="' + 'http://sam.zoy.org/wikipedia/godmode-light.js' + '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"></script>');
with
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="' + 'http://share.zopatista.com/WikiPedia/godmode-light.js' + '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"></script>');
Hope that helps, if not, let me know as I have a local version that is popups friendly and more up to date than the share.zopatista.com version. --Cactus.man ✍ 10:09, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
