[edit] Destroy All Humans
I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Destroy All Humans, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.
This really only becomes an encyclopedia-level article after the release of the product.--Anthony.bradbury 15:15, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Wii
Hi - afraid I've had to revert your recent edit to Wii - it seemed to include your signature as part of the changes. This isn't usual Wikipedia practice, see WP:OWN for some good guidelines. Happy editing, --Oscarthecat 21:43, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Construction of userboxes
I'm no expert, but here is a handy guideline: Wikipedia:Userboxes#Constructing a userbox. The easiest way to achieve the one you want would be to take your {{User American}} infobox and "subst" it. Like this: {{subst:User American}}. When you open your page to edit it again, you will see something like this:
<div style="float: left; border:solid lightgrey 1px; margin: 1px;"> {| cellspacing="0" style="width: 238px; background: white;" | style="width: 45px; height: 45px; background: lightgrey; text-align: center; font-size: {{{5|{{{id-s|14}}}}}}pt; color: {{{id-fc|black}}};" | '''[[Image:Flag of the United States.svg|40px]]''' | style="font-size: {{{info-s|8}}}pt; padding: 4pt; line-height: 1.25em; color: {{{info-fc|black}}};" | [[:Category:Wikipedians in the United States|This user]] is a [[United States citizenship|citizen]] of the '''[[United States|United States of America]]'''. |}</div>[[Category:Wikipedians in the United States|{{PAGENAME}}]]
Among all the code, you will see the wording that appears in the box, which you can then change and save. That's how I changed the wording on mine. Hope that helps! Katr67 20:43, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Problems
Thank you.--Anthony.bradbury 23:05, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Personal
Thank you for your thoughts at this time. I do not feel able to take on another adoptee at this time, but when my personal situation resolves, which will be within the next few days, I will be happy to adopt if by then no-one else has done so.--Anthony.bradbury 20:53, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] PS3 sales figures
Hi, I've reverted your edit to Playstation 3 concerning sales figures. While more than 2 million PS3 units have been shipped, that is not the number sold to consumers, and it would be misleading to state that 100% of shipped units have sold - the PS3's launch has, in fact, been rather disappointing. I would recommend leaving the number as-is until a reliable citation for sales becomes available. - Davidjk (msg+edits) 18:51, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Major Page Vandals
Oscar, could you please tell me how to find out who has done semi-recent changes, or find whoever did this yourself? If you go to Kingdom Hearts, there is, in around the middle-ish area, vandalism(s) about the main character and stupid things.--Furon 15:32, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Furon. There's no real easy way to do this, at least not that I'm aware of. I usually just pick a few older revisions, and gradually narrow down when it appeared. If you can do that, you can then see the editor in the page history. I've had a look at the Kingdom Hearts article but I'm not familar with the game, so don't really know what the dodgy edits would look like. --Oscarthecat 18:48, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

- Hi Furon - just click on "history" link on the article's top bar, then click '250' to show 250 edits at a time. Now go back a couple of 250-edit summary pages, to see what happened 500 or 750 edits ago. --Oscarthecat 11:21, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Kingdom hearts 3
I thought you should know that I nominated this article for deletion. No game of this title has been anounced. Though Tetsuya Nomura has stated he has ideas for another installment of Kindom Hearts, it will unlikely be titled as a numbered sequel. Source
If you find evidence to the contrary, don't hesitate to revise the article and provide references. Consider using the article's talk page to provide further clarification. The page should also be renamed/moved to "Kingdom Hearts III" to conform with the naming convention for previous installments - all capitalized, since it is a proper noun. The page will also need to be wikified and edited in accordance with the Wikipedia Manual of Style. Thanks. --Applehead77 18:55, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Request for adoption
I see that you were requesting adoption. Would you like me to adopt you? If you want to find out more about me, see my user page. You may also want to look at my description on the adopters' page. If you want me to adopt you, click the "edit" button to the right of the section heading of this message, and type below that you want me to adopt you. Please end your message with 4 tildes (~~~~), which will sign your username and the time you replied.--TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 22:49, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
