Medicine Collaboration of the Fortnight[edit]
NCurse work 20:57, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
- I have left some ideas on Talk:Pectus excavatum. Obviously finding a good source that everyone can access is a priority, and I think the Crump source qualifies to a large extent. Given that you nominated this for MCOTW, would you be able to send an email to the author of PMID 15619190 and see if he will release a PDF of his review to a few editors? JFW | T@lk 09:47, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
Fantastic. Curious about the reaction! JFW | T@lk 15:51, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
- Have you heard anything? I found a different email address in a more recent paper, so I've chased it with another email. JFW | T@lk 22:31, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Pectus excavatum[edit]
Hey, any chance of citing those last two edits you've done? They look good, just making sure :) Regards, CycloneNimrodtalk? 21:14, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Crap, totally forgot that. ya, I'll add em. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 21:17, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Not sure I did the "J Am Vet Med Assoc." refs right. Could you look at them? Thanks. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 21:24, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Done. You were pretty much right with them, I just tidied it up a little. Good work. CycloneNimrodtalk? 21:31, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- For next time I add soemthing WP:MED has a nice thing listed here:Template filler. That's really nice. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 21:34, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Tag?[edit]
I was curious by this tagging by ReedyBot. Here. Maybe you can put this concern in the appropriate place. SpencerT♦C 22:39, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- That's from when the issues first arose. The cats have been resolved but there's till a lot of mistagged articles. There was a few interloping categories under Category:Ohio that linked Ohio with Louisville and a lot of Pittsburg articles as well. As I see the bad tags I just try to remove them. Thanks for pointing that one out. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 03:22, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I was assessing articles yesterday, and stumbled upon this one, so if I find any others, I'll remove them. Should I tell you about any others, or just remove them? SpencerT♦C 13:50, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
- Honestly there's so many, it doesn't matter that much. A lot of them are in:Category:Unknown-importance Ohio articles, and it's a process to get through all 7,000 of em. Thanks for the help! §hep • ¡Talk to me! 17:16, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

No, no, no. I need to be clearer in my writing. I was referring to alterting me about the mistagged articles. Assessment is very important. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 17:21, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
More Bad Pages...[edit]
Lol
Special:Contributions/Reedy Bot
6596 in my list currently...
—Reedy 23:17, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
- God knows. Its annoying that he didnt try and contact me first.. Presumably it's just going to be have to be looked over again. I think, that looking at the list, and then my contribs, there doesnt look to be more than a handful that have been reverted... :/ —Reedy 11:01, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Mucormycosis[edit]
Hey there. After seeing your excellent contributions towards Pectus excavatum, I was wondering if you'd like to help me try and get Mucormycosis, an article i've been working on for a while now, up to GA status over the next month or so? Regards, CycloneNimrodTalk? 20:53, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- This week I have some final quarter projects due, but next week I just have some OATs. I'd be glad to help. Any specific area where I should start off? §hep • ¡Talk to me! 20:56, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- Ah not particularly, if you could find some more information on diagnosis or prognosis then that'd be grand! Thanks a lot :) Regards, CycloneNimrodTalk? 21:28, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Asking questions to the candidate is rather silly, IMO, because the RfA is headed for SNOW-closure. Enigma message Review 02:37, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

I approved Shepbot for AWB, please ping me when its full approved so I can note that in the edit summary history. Thanks. MBisanz talk 23:06, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

responded[edit]
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
Regarding the edits you made to Template:Helpme, you completely defeated the purpose of the parser function. By adding |template|, you made it break on all user talk pages. This is an intricate template, and should only be edited if you have a good understanding of parserfunctions. I know you meant well, bur frankly I knew what I was doing, and purposely did it the way I did. You may find Meta's guide to ParserFunctions helpful, as I did. Happy editing, --FastLizard4 (Talk•Index•Sign) 06:31, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- I know the warning is a little tacky, I will refine it today. As for it being already there, I asked like 3 administrators on #wikipedia-en IRC channel, and they didn't have any complaints. It simply caused too much confusion on the help channel, as the bot reports any page in the category. And, obviously, the message built into the template hasn't done too much to help the situation. --FastLizard4 (Talk•Index•Sign) 20:31, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the vote of confidence, so far editing had been fun- but a bit overwhelming. I really don't know where to start. My real question is should I focus on contributing to a small group of articles at first or simply jump in and add as I come across something that seems lacking? Also, how can I learn more about the technical aspects of editing, such as what symbols will produce what results in the shown pages? Thanks Wickb55 (talk) 08:07, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- Really article editting is up to you, there's no rules when it comes to that. You might be interested in SuggestBot if you need some more editting ideas. Where ever you can help is always appreciated. As for the symbols there's a cheat sheet at WP:CHEAT whcih I found very helpful. You can always do test edits at the Wikipedia:Sandbox.
Redirect of Greater Falmingo (Band)[edit]
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Greater Falmingo (Band), by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Greater Falmingo (Band) is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Greater Falmingo (Band), 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) 15:01, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Template subst[edit]
OK! I'll try to remember that. :) Zagalejo^^^ 21:49, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Re: Project banners[edit]
So the idea to create another project banner may be unacceptable because it may affect the way the old one works which I read in another discussion. At first, I didn't think there are any rules regards to that. I find that some wikiprojects have more than one userbox, icons registered users can place on their user pages to emphasize their membership to that project. So, I thought the same principle would apply to project banners. Wubzy (talk) 00:04, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
RE:helpme[edit]
Yes, that was okay to send me a note. In the future, if a blocked user uses the {{helpme}} template, then ask them to wait for the {{unblock}} template to do its job. They shouldn't be using the helpme template. Regards. Woody (talk) 13:07, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
Your recent bot approvals request has been approved. Please see the request page for details. When the bot flag is set it will show up in this log. Q T C 20:42, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
ShepBot errors[edit]
Your AWB bot edits just made two errors in subst'ing: [2][3] I'm not sure why it detected that they needed to be subst'ed. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 03:02, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- Found one more that shouldn't have been done [4] and another two probably shouldn't have been done [5][6] -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 03:06, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- That's odd, it should have stuck to the user space... I'll have to take a look at that. As for the others in the user spaces, if they would have used an ignore or nowiki format it would have skipped over them. I guess the user could also user the {{nobots}} template, but they may be of inconvinience to them. If the all had a specific keyword on them I could skip them over then as well. User spaces are tricky, but it should have stayed out of any other namespace. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 19:52, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
Lady Aleena's RfA[edit]

Stepshep...Thank you for supporting my nomination for adminship. Through it I have become aware of a great many people who can help me in my future editing endeavors. Even though I was not promoted, your support shows that I still have something to contribute to Wikipedia, even if it is minor edits to fix spelling and grammar to working in WikiProjects to help others make great articles. If you wish to further discuss the nomination, please use its talk page. Stop by my talk page anytime, even if it is just to say hello. Have a wonderful day! - LA @ 04:43, 30 April 2008 (UTC) |

Comment[edit]
RE: this. Have you seen this? And to which edit(s) are you referring? - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 16:09, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- "You've never seen me upset." ;-) Don't worry, you'll know when I'm actually mad at you. I'm actually less likely to subst users who may not actually stick around, which doesn't sound logical. I just hate wasting all the time it takes me to type out {{subst:welcomeg}} on someone who might not stay. W/e. I need to get Twinkle working or something. Cheers and happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 20:57, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: WP:UPHD[edit]
Come on, was that necessary? Calling someone an "ungrateful little swine" isn't exactly being in the spirit of civility. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 22:50, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
- Aye okay, fair enough. I see your point, I was just annoyed at his reaction to me attempting to help him out. It is my honest opinion that he is an "ungrateful little swine". Sure I suppose I should have used a sandbox, but why react like that when I was only trying to help? Talk about civility... ← κεηηε∂γ (shout at me) 08:15, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, but it's very easy to misinterpret what something is meant to mean over the internet. IMO he was bein a bit of swine too. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 19:39, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Lady Aleena's future[edit]
|
Stepshep...Several people have expressed an interest in my next probable nomination for adminship. Messaging people when it happens would look a lot like canvassing, so I would prefer not doing that. If you are interested in it, you could add this to your watchlist. If it is created, you will know, maybe even before I do depending on how often you check your watchlist. If you wish to gush prior to it being officially up, have fun, but only when it happens please. I am in no particular rush. Have a very nice day! :) - LA @ 10:07, 6 May 2008 (UTC) |

Hello again. The Highly Active Users project has gone through a complete revamping per popular demand. We believe this new format will make it easier for new editors to find assistance. However, with the new format, I must again ask you to verify your information on this page. I attempted to translate the data from the old version to the new, but with the extensive changes, I may have made some errors. Thanks again. Useight (talk) 04:29, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Chicken breed infobox[edit]
There are some problems with the traits chosen in your test template for chicken breeds:
- clutch size isn't a part of breed standards, and generally isn't touched upon in sources.
- heights are not generally ever recorded in exact measurements for breeds, only weights.
- There can be dozens of colors for a single breed, so there is often too many to list in an infobox.
- Skin color is an important factor in determining breed.
- Egg color is another important one.
- As is the type of comb is has.
I would suggest removing or adding the ones I mentioned, and checking the color to make sure it is both web safe and not in conflict with any of the colors used in other taxoboxes. Good work so far! VanTucky Vote in my weird poll! 22:13, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the help. I really didn't have a clue what I was doing and was just trying to get this moving. I'll add the fixes later tonight. For the brown it's used by DogBreed, CatBreed, and is the Mammal color for Taxobox. Thanks again. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 22:47, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

The most widespread system of classing is that used by the American Poultry Association's Standard of Perfection. The few exceptions are those bantam breeds only recognized by the American Bantam Association. But the general rule is that it is either recognized by the APA or ABA, or unrecognized entirely. For recognized breeds, they are broken down in to one of six classes:
- American
- English
- Continental
- Asiatic
- Mediterranean
- Other breeds
Bantams are classed not be region (most breeds have a bantam version, but some are true bantams, meaning they are all small). They are: Game, Single Comb and Clean Legged, Rose Comb and Clean Legged, All Other Combs and Clean Legged, and finally the Feather Legged. Confusing enough? :) Here is the APA site's explanation.

My recent RfA[edit]
Thank you for supporting my RfA, which unfortunately didn't succeed. The majority of the opposes stated that I needed more experience in the main namespace and Wikipedia namespace and talk space, so that is what I will do. I have made a list and I hope I will be able to get through it. I will go for another RfA in about three month's time and I hope you will be able to support me then as well. If you have any other comments for me or wish to be notified when I go for another RfA, please leave them on my talk page. If you wish to nominate me for my next RfA, please wait until it has been about three months.

Feel free to use it! In fact, I will put it on the main 'Custom modules' page at WP:AWB.

- I'd use the above, as you only have to change the template in one place! It is "lazy", but its also good programming practise. There was also a }} missing from the end —Reedy 10:28, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

For anyone else who sees this I modified it a bit to allow B and List class. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 18:37, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

sorry I turned off your robot. I did not really mean to, I was just experimenting. I have nothing against you or shepbot, I actually think they are quite cool. And I am not a vandal! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dudemeister1234 (talk • contribs) 04:10, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

AWB Module[edit]
It should already be compliant, AFAIK. I know the code for my bot, Bot0612, is, and that is based on this code. If it isn't working, point me to the page(s) in question that it is choking on and I'll investigate.
<blatant advert>If you want my bot do handle any large-scale WikiProject-tag related stuff, just drop me a line. Check its contribs for evidence that it won't blow up!</blatant ad> RichardΩ612 Ɣ ɸ 07:59, May 29, 2008 (UTC)
- Bot0612 uses a modified version at the moment, which only adds the |class= parameter to articles, not the template, as this is what the bot was designed to do. Adding the template as well would be trivial to add however. If you want the code, I can post it here. (I won't clutter your talk page up if you don't want it, it's fairly big!) RichardΩ612 Ɣ ɸ 19:53, May 29, 2008 (UTC)
- Done, if it causes nuclear meltdown of your bot, give me a shout and I'll try to avert a complete disaster! Hope it's useful! RichardΩ612 Ɣ ɸ 20:15, May 29, 2008 (UTC)
Wikilinks on Diagnoses[edit]
Ahhh dude you have no idea how helpful that is, thanks! :) I've copied and pasted it over from that page onto diagnoses. Thanks again! :D Regards, CycloneNimrodTalk?Sign? 20:20, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
The Wolf Hunter[edit]
I don't see how any one has a right to delete some ones work from here. Wikipedia is a Encyclopedia for people to gain knowledge about things in life, pop culture and things from around the world. The Wolf Hunter film it's self is a film that has lots of fans and supporters as does the character. I think just because its not as well known as Freddy or Jason does not mean it should not be on here. I have already seen that some one else has edited the article as well. I think that if this does go off its a shame and what kind of Encyclopedia for the people rob people from learning about films and characters from a independent film.

Moving pages[edit]
Hi, thanks for your message. I'm not sure, though, that I understand what you mean. I think you mean if I move a page and then change the redirect page to a disambig page, then I need to clear the Redirect talk page of projects. If it's a straight redirect like Orton Hall that I just did, then there should be nothing to do, right? Best wishes. clariosophic (talk) 03:48, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
