Help

Wow that was fast. How do you start a page on wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Peremer (talkcontribs) 17:17, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Type the name of the page you want to start in the search box. When you get to a page entitled "Search results," click on the red words at the part of the screen that says, "You searched for pagename [Index]," and then type the words in the big edit box. An alternative would be to follow this link, but remember to replace "Newpagename" with the name of the page you wish to start in the URL bar.
Before you start the page, though, make sure it fulfills our notability guidelines (click on one of the links under the "Inclusion guidelines" heading on the right-hand side of the screen for more specifics). Best, —Animum (talk) 17:39, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello yet again. I regretfully inform you that the bot we were using to update the user status at Wikipedia:Highly Active Users, SoxBot V, was blocked for its constant updating. With this bot out of operation, a patch is in the works. Until that patch is reviewed and accepted by the developers, some options have been presented to use as workarounds: 1) Qui monobook (not available in Internet Explorer); 2) User:Hersfold/StatusTemplate; 3) Manually updating User:StatusBot/Status/USERNAME; or 4) Not worry about it and wait for the patch to go through, which hopefully won't take long. If you have another method, you can use that, too. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Useight (talk) 17:49, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

why the warning?

I received the following message from you in December 2007:

"Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. —Animum (talk) 04:41, 24 December 2007 (UTC)"

What is this about? I've been on Wikipedia for a long time and have never had a problem. Over that time, I've been a major advocate of Wiki policies and often police for vandalism, original research and other inappropriate material. I haven't created that many articles, and none of them have been controversial or had suspect notability. Please explain what this is about. Thanks. ask123 (talk) 01:23, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Quick question on user page

What is the temp page for? Simply south (talk) 21:29, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

It's mainly for listing pages for AWB to parse when making runs with Anibot. Best, —Animum (talk) 02:24, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Script

Works perfectly! Thanks for the help, really. I made a couple changes to it, as I forgot to ask you to include these things (see [1]). Thanks again! - Rjd0060 (talk) 04:11, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Ah, good. I see I forgot to add document.editform.submit(); to the code, which you inserted. Glad you like it, —Animum (talk) 21:54, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Missing image Image:Belimbing.jpg

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Belimbing.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Belimbing.jpg is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Belimbing.jpg, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click here CSDWarnBot (talk) 05:03, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Is it possible to hide 'show another'? -- Mentisock 19:17, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Sure, {{randomquote|hidepurge=yes}} will work. Animum (talk) 20:46, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
Thanks. -- Mentisock 08:12, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Moar scriptz plz

If you could; maybe one more similar to the last one you created. This one should be for Template:ConfirmationOTRS. It requires two prompts (one for a URL of the source and one for the ticket number). This template is useful as it is more specific to text being released. Can you do it? If so; here are some specifics: Autosubmit, tab titled "OTRS-TEXT", and tab only on Talk: pages. - Rjd0060 (talk) 16:25, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

OK, I should have it ready soon. —Animum (talk) 19:43, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
One change to the tab title (I can change it later if you don't. Thanks! - Rjd0060 (talk) 19:59, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

 document.editform.wpTextbox1.value = "{{ConfirmationOTRS\|source=" + document.getElementById("urlEntry").value + "\|otrs=" + document.getElementById("ticketNumber").value + "}}\n" + document.editform.wpTextbox1.value; //New text in the edit form.

Hello!

Hey, I've found sanctuary in my huggable Special:Newpages! :-) --cremepuff222 00:23, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

A breakthrough indeed! Oh, and on a related note, it's nice to see you've returned. Animum (talk) 00:33, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
I have a slight question. Is that image included in your signature? --cremepuff222 00:34, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Nah, I type the link when I feel it to be appropriate. :-) —Animum (talk) 00:39, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Ah, excellent. --cremepuff222 00:47, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

I edit-conflicted five times trying to close that page, so join the club. ^_^ No worries, at least we got it done. UltraExactZZ Claims ~ Evidence 01:34, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
