User talk:Pufferfish101/Main

Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. Please don't tag an article for speedy deletion if it's already on Vfd, even if you think it meets the speedy deletion criteria. The article is already getting attention, and if it is clearly a speedy deletion candidate it will get deleted anyway.-gadfium 03:06, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)

User Page

Hi, Pufferfish. I just stumbled upon your user page, and I noticed your statement at the bottom: "You may not edit any text on this page in any way or I will sue you." While I'm pretty sure you're speaking toungue-in-cheek, I'd just like to alert you that the Wikipedia has a policy against legal threats. I wouldn't want you to get into any trouble for something that you really didn't mean. If you have any questions, just drop me a note on my talk page. Thanks, and have a good day.

Well, this is a wiki, so anyone is enabled to edit your user page. I hate to get wrapped up in policy, but according to the one referring to user pages, it is really up to the individual user. I've noticed myself that some users encourage others to correct mistakes or typos on their pages (see Jimbo Wales and Mindspillage), and others like yourself discourage it. So, apparently, it's up to you. I think your policy is fine (I wouldn't want anyone changing my page), but the way it is worded now could be construed as an actual legal claim. Hope this helps.

Stephen Cardinal Kim Sou-hwan

You apparently took this article and moved it to the wrong title;I have done a "poor man's move" back to the right title as well as correcting multiple errors of fact in the original text (generally not your fault but you didn't fix them).Yes,Cardinal Kim was 46 when he became a Cardinal in 1967,which made him youngest at that time,but Paul VI had named a 45-year-old in 1965 and would name a 44-year-old in 1973.The youngest cardinal of the 20th century was not Kim but 37-year-old Leon Skrbensky z Hriste in 1901,followed by 38-year-old Rafael Cardinal Merry del Val in 1903.Likewise,he didn't become senior cardinal (not a formal title) and protoprete until 2004,not 2003.--Louis E./le@put.com/12.144.5.2 02:18, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

User:Pufferfish101/Edit

Just a note that User:Pufferfish101/Edit is showing up in Category:Wikipedia basic information. This appears to be a temporary page or sandbox of some kind which probably does not belong in this category. I don't know what you're using it for, so I won't try to fix it myself. -- Beland 01:30, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

The categories were being added because of the transclusion of Template:Please leave this line alone. I copied the text from this template and then deleted the category lines, so the page appears the same, but is no longer in the category. I hope this works for you. Thanks, Beland 02:13, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yes. Thank you. RabidMonkeysEatGrass, It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine (and I know you will feel fine, too) 21:00, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Re: Ross Program

Webber? Yeah I threw together the article yesterday. Feel free to edit it. :D mxdxcxnx_{T C} 15:52, 4 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Your sig

It's funny and all that, but it occupies an entirely line on any page you use it on. There's no strict policy against long sigs, but a lot of people find them annoying. Could you please shorten it a bit? - Mgm|^(talk) 11:28, 2 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ditto this. Ashibaka (tock) 05:24, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply. The sig you posted on my talk is much better. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:05, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

One dollar Federal Reserve Note

I noticed the deletion debate here has fizzled somewhat, but I made some changes to the articles that may further illustrate the points I had been trying to make. Please take a look and let me know what you think. Paul 23:02, 5 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Esperanza Newsletter, Issue #1

Reach out
Reach out is a program aimed at allowing users to bring issues that they have had in Wikipedia to a listening, sympathetic and caring audience: "No one can know how we feel if we do not say. We cannot expect to get understanding if we do not ask for it. No one will dispute that sometimes life's issues are too much for one person. It is fair to say that sometimes Wikipedia's problems fall under the same heading. This is a place where you can bring the bruises that can sometimes be got on this project for attention."
Stress Alerts
The Stress alerts program aims at identifying users who are stressed, alerting the community of thier stress and works in tandem with the Stressbusters at trying to identify causes of stress and eliminating them.
Note from the editor
Welcome to this new format of the Esperanza Newsletter, which came about during the last Advisory Council meeting - we hope you like it! The major changes are that each month, right after the Council meeting, this will be sent out and will include two featured programs and a sum up of the meeting. Also, it will be signed by all of the Advisory Council members, not just Celestianpower. Have an Esperanzial end of March, everyone!

The last AC meeting (full log)
Future meetings are to be held monthly, not fortnightly as before. Bans and Access level changes (apart from autovoice) in the IRC channel are to be reported at the new log. In the IRC channel, there is going to be only one bot at a time. The charter requires members to have 150 edits and 2 weeks editing. Why this is the case will be clarified. A new Code of Conduct will be drafted by JoanneB and proposed to the Esperanza community. The NPA reform idea is to be dropped officially. Charter ammendments are to be discussed in future, not voted on. The Advisory Council is not going to be proposed to be expanded by the Advisory Council themselves, if others want to propose it, they will listen.
Signed...

User pages, or lack thereof

Thanks, I was already aware of this. I still don't think I will make one though. Sfnhltb 01:08, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
