[edit] Editing Wishes

Qho wishes you a happy editing day!!

[edit] On DEFCON Temp

I think you are right is ther anyway to Semi-Protect it for good? Æon ^{Insane Ward} 23:18, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

An administrator would have to do it. --Shane ^{(talk/contrib)} 23:57, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Point taken I think I know one that might be willing to help. Æon ^{Insane Ward} 00:00, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

The template has been protected again. Æon ^{Insane Ward} 00:12, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question

Shane, I noticed that you wrote

Support as nom

in Misfitoy's RfA. I'm assuming you meant "per nom." Could you possibly clarify your comment?

Sorry for nitpicking =D. alphaChimp ^laudare 23:19, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Heh. Now I'm even more confused. Did you nominate him? I totally missed that. (Once, again, sorry for nitpicking =D).alphaChimp ^laudare 23:42, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

hahahahahahahaha. that's awesome. regards, alphaChimp ^laudare 23:45, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Batman Begins sequel

I apologize for any mistakes I might have made in trying to make sure that the right links point to The Dark Knight. I think that the problem should be solved now, and I reverted "The Dark Knight" back... so I might've reverted your re-revert? Change anything necessary. Thanks. --Erik 03:15, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing the issue with relocating the Batman sequel article. However, I was wondering how one should address this new situation. Yesterday, Talk:The Dark Knight (film) redirected to Talk:The Dark Knight, since that is where the edit history is (left behind from the mess of moving around, I assume). Someone recently copied/pasted the current edit of Talk:The Dark Knight to Talk:The Dark Knight (film) and removed the redirect. This leaves behind the edit history in Talk:The Dark Knight. Is there a way to move a talk page's history from one place to another? --Erik 18:28, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Dark Knight (film)

Wait, tough crowd about what? You mean the guys editing the article? If so, I know what you mean.RoryS89 01:34, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, she has a baby after all. Allegedly.RoryS89 02:19, 13 August 2006 (UTC)RoryS89

It is kind of weird how Batman is the only hero who doesn't have a recurring love interest. Except maybe Selina Kyle, but she's a villain at the same time. I mean, you've got Superman and Lois Lane, Spider-Man and Mary Jane Watson, Hulk and Betty Ross, Daredevil and Elektra, and so on. But no main love interest for Batman. I guess it shows that Batman's goal of protecting Gotham doesn't leave him time to fall in love.RoryS89 02:41, 13 August 2006 (UTC)RoryS89

[edit] RfA thanks

Thanks so much for voting, Bugs5382! Thanks so much for your support vote on my request for adminship! With a final vote count of (82/5/0), it succeeded, and I'm now an administrator! I am thrilled with the overwhelming positive support from the community, and sincerely thank you once again for taking your time to voice your opinion. Feel free to contact me with any comments/suggestions in the future! —Mets501 (talk) 03:47, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Random Comment re Font Size

Could you possibly make the text on your userpage a *wee* bit bigger? It was really interesting to read, but a little hard to see.

Regards, alphaChimp ^laudare 04:27, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. That change really makes a big difference. I tried to revert that vandal, btw, but you beat me to the punch by something like .5 seconds. alphaChimp ^laudare 04:49, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] BSG UBX

Hey Shane, what do you think of my minor change to the ubx, do you think the text is better as "BSG" or as a quote? I thought it would be better to use "So say we all" then just "BSG" (heh)! Matthew Fenton (Talk | Contribs) 12:07, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

O.k, np. Matthew Fenton (Talk | Contribs) 16:18, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] You Welcome and

Your welcome! it is the best one forhte design Æon ^{Insane Ward} 15:42, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your Wdefcon Template

I love it! Great work on making it. However, Level 1 (Red) currently reads "Serve". Shouldn't that be "Severe"? Otherwise, it is easily the best-looking WDC there is in my opinion! Cheers, Daniel.Bryant 06:10, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

		The da Vinci Barnstar
		For making what is, in my opinion, the best-looking Wdefcon template of them all, I award you this da Vinci Barnstar. Just looking at the coding itself exemplifies the amount of effort you put in to making it look good and function well, and for this, I thank you. Daniel.Bryant 06:25, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! :) Shane ^{(talk/contrib)} 06:52, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: BSGWiki

Yea, i've been watching as it progresses its pretty cool, i use the "BSGBook" tried "Monobook" as well  :-) MatthewFenton (talk • contribs) 07:14, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for creating a script that should make it easier to grade. Only I'm not sure how to use it. Could you tell me how, please? --Supernumerary 18:10, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Putting classes on film articles

Just a small note... please use the "Future" class next time instead of the "Stub" or any other class when categorizing a film article for a film that hasn't been released yet - thanks. :) Esn 01:32, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Requested Scripts

I was wondering if you could find some way to create two scripts for WikiProject Films.

1. An addition the our template ({{Film}}) that would automatically assess articles as stub if they use a stub template (similar to those used by WP Biography and WP Songs) but only if they do not have a previous rating.
2. A tag that would add a Category:English-language films if it stated English in the {{Infobox film}} next to Language.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, you can reply on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Films or on my talk page. Cbrown1023 20:00, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] FBI

Good to see you still editing some. Looks like you are busy in real life. I haven't much a chance to work on the FBI article, lately. Among other things, I've been busy monitoring and working on 9/11-related pages. But, have picked up several books about the FBI, by Richard Gid Powers, Ronald Kessler, Athan G. Theoharis, and others at used book shops. The FBI is a tricky topic to write about, because there are so many facets to cover and NPOV issues always come up, but will still give it a try to further improve the article and its referencing. --Aude (talk) 18:37, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Films/Proposed new project banner

Could you make sure that the new project banner that you proposed and designed is kept up to date with the current one. Cbrown1023 03:07, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

You told me to remind you in a couple of days and I didn't want to forget... Cbrown1023 01:34, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Wait, make sure you make it an option to have the class as lower-case or capitalized. Cbrown1023 23:20, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, it looks great! Cbrown1023 02:42, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] BSWiki links

Does wikipedia have an interwiki link for BSGWiki? Like: [[BSGWiki:xyz]] - Would be cool if it did, not sure how to get one though. thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 07:01, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Oh thats pretty good then - i'll update the pages i know use external links to BSW to use the new interlink - i know of a couple of pages that dont link to BSW as well. thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 07:15, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject query

Hi there, I am doing some clean up on the list of proposed WikiProjects. I noticed that WikiProject US Exec Branch has been listed for more than 60 days. Unless you object, I would like to remove it from the list since it is unlikely to receive further feedback. Thanks! --Aguerriero (talk) 15:51, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] tl-Film

What should we do about articles with which importance is not applicable? Should we get like an NA-type thing or some other class? Cbrown1023 20:45, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Could you help me with something? I'm trying to add past-collaboration, collaboration-candidate, and attention

'Removed to save space, available via the page history here.

There are just a few bugs... could you tell me what's wrong with this complicated sytnax when you get a chance? Cbrown1023 02:50, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

This takes up like your whole user talk page, feel free to move it to a sub-page of my user page... like User:Cbrown1023/Template:Film. Cbrown1023 02:56, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Figured it out and updated the template. :) :) :) Cbrown1023 00:39, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Expert Advice

Hi Bugs5382, I am a graduate design student doing a case-study of Wikipedia. I am trying to collect input from users with a high level of involvement like yourself. My goal is to take Wikipedia's design into an experimental direction, one that would assist users and community involvement. I would be greatful, if you have a moment, if you could provide me with some suggestions that would improve the web site design in your opinion. Thank You.Graphixmdp 00:28, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Still interested in ddmin coaching?

Hi Shane. I'm just wondering if you are still interested in admin coaching. If you are, I can try to set you up with a coach. Cheers! --Fang Aili ^talk 19:17, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I am just starting my job, Jan. 8th, and I have to moving from Boston, MA to Fairfax, VA so in about a weeks time, I will no longer be online until everything is hooked up in Virginia. So... I would still love the coaching to become a Sysop, but times are really wacky right now. Shane ^{(talk/contrib)} 07:25, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

That's fine. When you're ready to be coached, you can leave a note next to your name on the requests page. Right now it says you want coaching at a later date. Good luck with your move and new job! --Fang Aili ^talk 17:22, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Collapsible sections?

Hi Shane, we had a talk with Nehrams about the unresolved problem of long/short film plots. Some people want to be able to find an extended plot for a film, but others argue that one shouldn't have to go through too much. So one idea was that we have a Plot summary in the article and we create separate pages for the Extended plot. But we were told such standalone plots aren't allowed. So I had another idea, but I don't know if it's possible. Do you see any way of hiding a section and offering some button which if pressed makes it display? Like this we could hide the long version and offer a "click here for extended plot". Hoverfish Talk 22:48, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Update: In the meanwhile, User:PhantomS showed me how it's done with CSS and we are on our way to propsing it as the long awaited solution. So, thanks for your attention anyway and wish you all the best for 2007. Hoverfish Talk 13:41, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New Template Proposal

I just wanted to know if you have started the formatting for the new stub to start template from here. Is it possible for it to be formatted to fit in the {{Film}} template when only the stub class is selected? Also if this does work, would we have to copy it into all stub articles or would it automatically be added to the stub class articles? --Nehrams2020 08:09, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Shane, knowing that you are on tight schedual, we passed the template problem Nehrams mentioned to another tech-wiz, so please, don't worry about it. Surely work and real life have priority. Our new idea is to start a board for tech problems in WP Films where any tech-fellow with free time can pick a task. Cheers! Hoverfish Talk 07:36, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] FBI

I just joined the WikiProject FBI the other day, and I made a few minor changes and created a small article. The project is rather small, and there is nothing on the "To Do List", so I wondered if there was anything that needed to be done that I could help out with. Cheers!
