User talk:Rbarreira

Note: If I leave a message on your talk, I will go to read your response. You needn't respond me here on my talk. If you leave a message on my talk, I will respond you here, not on your talk. It is in my opinion the best way to follow the course of discussion.

It is easier to follow that way, but if you respond on your own talk page to someone's message left there, the other person won't get a message notification. --Blainster 04:22, 20 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I've thought about that too... Maybe I should notify the other person there too, without copying the messages, which can probably get really nasty, I imagine. Thanks for the comment anyway :) Rbarreira 15:52, 20 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot for the welcoming message! :) Rbarreira 17:52, 16 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

~~Just a reminder: the protocol here on talk pages is to leave your new messages at the bottom of the page, not at the top like a blog.~~ (Whoops, sorry, it was User:loxley who put the message at the top of Talk:Consciousness) --Blainster 04:22, 20 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It's a good thing to have in mind anyway :) Rbarreira 15:56, 20 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

User E tac[edit]

Hello, there. I have addressed a message to the editor, and in case he continues vandalizing the Wikipedia, he will immediately be suspended. Feel free to contact me if you notice more vandalism from him, as action will surely be taken. Also, you might consider not getting involved directly in such discussions (leaving messages on the vandalizing user's Talk page), you are better off either contacting an admin or leaving a notice in WP:VIP if the case is serious. Cheers. --Sn0wflake 19:25, 5 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The editor has been blocked for one week. If for some reason he continues practicing vandalism after the block expires, he is going to be blocked permanently, and the articles he vandalise are going to be watched for any other username he might create (which will be blocked instantly). --Sn0wflake 19:35, 22 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The reason for the kiwifruit pic[edit]

There was a reason for that image of a kiwifruit showing the Zespri name, which you removed. A contributor insisted on using ZESPRI in the article, all in CAPS, and said in the talk page that was how it appeared on their website. That wasn't true, so to end the matter I uploaded the image showing the lower case spelling. I guess it's long since served its purpose, but thought I'd explain why it was there in the first place.

Portal de Portugal[edit]

Já abriu o Portal de Portugal na Wikipedia! Junta-te a nós para trabalharmos em prol de artigos, listas e imagens relacionadas com Portugal. No portal, encontrarás um artigo geral, um artigo biográfico, um artigo geográfico e uma imagem todas as semanas em destaque. Para além disso estão apresentadas também secções de Notícias, Curiosidades, Listas, Citações, Opentasks, informação sobre artigos recentes, etc. Futuramente teremos um WikiProject para geografia de Portugal (de modo a estandardizar todos os artigos relativos às localidades e divisões administrativas portuguesas), história de Portugal, biografias, e possivelmente desporto. Também temos em vista a criação de uma Colaboração Semanal para artigos sobre Portugal. Por isto, e tudo mais, pedimos-te que venhas ajudar-nos. Estamos também à procura de colaboradores, por isso, se estiveres interessado, é só pedires que já estás no grupo de manutenção do portal. Saudações! Gameiro 20:15, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hezbollah Edits[edit]

Thanks for helping! I haven't checked absolutely everything yet, but what I have checked looks good! Just one thing ... when you're reverting, can you specify the time-stamp of the version you're reverting to? It makes things easier to check and follow. JiHymas@himivest.com 22:45, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Theory in Practice[edit]

It's a style issue.... compare it with At the Gates and Spawn of Possession. Minor words don't get caps. The same goes for titles of albums, and songs and such. Spearhead 10:56, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Disambiguation Talk Request[edit]

This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants.

Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 21:39, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:NecrophagistOnset1999.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:NecrophagistOnset1999.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 19:09, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
