[edit] Welcome!

[edit] Protecting your userboxes

Because of the current campaign against userboxes, it's pretty likely that many of your boxes are going to get deleted from their template space soon (especially your Flying Spaghetti Monsterism box, but in general, any boxes that could be considered to express a point of view someone might disagree with). These templates could very possibly be deleted in the next week or two. The best (and really, only) way to protect those userboxes is to perform a "substitute" command on each one of them, which will put the code directly into your page, instead of calling on the template every time your page is loaded. That way, when the template is deleted, it has no effect on the code resident on your page.

In order to do this, go into your user page, and wherever you have a template, insert "subst" inside the brackets. So,

{{template name}} becomes {{subst:template name}}

and your userboxes will all take up residence on your page. Sometimes this makes the formatting funky, and will require some tweaking in the code to restore the layout of your boxes as they were before. If you have any questions about this, please drop me a line. Regards, JDoorjam Talk 23:26, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks very much for letting me know about this, and I will change my UserPage ASAP! --Chachu207 11:13, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

OK, all done now. PS, if anyone sees this message, DO THE SUBST THING! Life or death! --Chachu207 18:49, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:PIC834714.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:PIC834714.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Whoops. Done now. --Chachu207 18:34, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nicholharper

Hi Chachu207, thanks for the comments on my flying and gliding animals page. Nicolharper 19:27, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Youre welcome! --Chachu207 20:57, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hiraeth

Hi -- I appreciate your offer to looking over my Amherst Museum article. I'm afraid I couldn't find any comments you had though -- you indicated they'd be here? --Hiraeth 17:39, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Ah, sorry. I havent put them on yet. But, no time like the present, so... The article is good overall, but it reads a bit like an ad, so is not technically NPOV. I would also suggest the removal of bullet pointed text, and the insertion of paragraphed text, in proper sentences. If anything else crops up, i'll leave a message here, or on the article discussion page. --Chachu207 18:35, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Thank you. I was wondering about that myself. I work in marketing, so I tend to write everything that way -- I appreciate the advice! --Hiraeth 19:16, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Law Enforcement Project

Hello, I guess its just us for now, do you wish to start talking about hitting off this project? Tutmosis 00:45, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

First of all, thanks for following up my ad. Second, I was thinking of development of templates, standardisation of articles, and other stuff, which I have listed on the main page. --Chachu207 17:41, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Hello there. I just noticed your message from way back in February re your project. Sounds interesting but being relatively new to this computer technology you'll have to keep it nice and simple! Your project sounds interesting and I can give you some input from an operational stand point. Anything need looking at? Dibble999 13:51, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, thanks for your offer, and due to the small size of the project, all that needs doing is starting and expanding requested articles, and the like. Any templates, or other ideas that you might have would be most welcome. --Chachu207 ::: Talk to me 03:09, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

lol, it never even crossed my mind that he was asking a serious question about browser cookies, haha, I wonder if he was really :O - cohesion^t 19:40, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

well, he seemed a bit of a prat, but just to be sure... (and I suppose I have to live up to my "nice" userbox) --Chachu207 19:42, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Community Justice Newsletter

Community Justice Newsletter

Welcome Previously, various notices regarding Community Justice have gone out to our members; though this is the first actual newsletter. This issue will contain information regarding decisions made on the first meeting, our new council, and more...! If you wish to unsubscribe to future newsletters, please add your name to Wikipedia:Community Justice/Do Not Spam. New Council Following our first elections, a new council has been elected.Computerjoe and Ian13 remain as chairman and chief executive (respectively); while Eddieh, Wiki alf and Xchrisblackx are replaced as councillors by Ilyanep, Osbus and Covington. The Giant Puffin and Pureblade remain as councillors. Member Conduct In the last meeting, the conduct of 4 members was discussed. Ethnopunk will be put on probation, supervised by Ian13, if he/she is incivil during this probation, he/she will be expelled from WP:CJ; the same was decided for Misza13 (voluntarily), and his probation will be supervised by Computerjoe. No action will be taken against Computerjoe. Barnstar The Civility Barnstar which our members have designed has been sent to Barnstar and award proposals. We'd appreciate your feedback! Also, we are planning to make a Community Justice barnstar to give to hard-working CJ members. If you're a budding designer, consider trying to make it, then post your proposal to WT:CJ! Name and logo change There has been no consensus reached regarding changing our name and/or logo neither at WT:CJ nor at WT:CJ/M/1. While suggestions are still welcome, no action will be taken at this time. Programs We are going to try to create programs to more actively involve our members. If you have any ideas, please drop a line at WT:CJ. We will try to work with WP:ESP on one of these programs, at some point in the future. Thanks! Thank you for your time. If you need anything, feel free to comment at WT:CJ or come into our IRC channel [1]. Computerjoe wishes to extend his thanks to User:Robchurch, a non-member who assisted in making {{tracker}} redundant, as well as Misza13 for his continued support and to the whole of this and the previous council.

Concordia Newsletter

Community Justice is no more. It has been reformed to Concordia. Membership has been transferred.

Concordia is an organization of editors on Wikipedia that strive to encourage civility and fair treatment among all editors in the Wikipedian community, from the Wikignome to the Wikiholic. The project was designed to have a friendly and helpful environment to support any unfortunate Wikipedians that have become victims of incivility, hostility, or continual disrespect.

We currently need help in getting going, and making the community understand our aims. We work for civility. Nothing more, nothing less.

If you have ideas, let us know at our talk page, or on the IRC channel. We aim to spread civility in every way we can.

[edit] WikiProject Law Enforcement

Is there a project header for this wikiproject? You know, a "this article is art of wikiproject law enforcement, b class," and so on? If not how do we go about making one? It would just be nice to be able to put something in the talk pages of the articles that's all, ive written two that should have it but as yet have nothing to put there. Many thanks. --SGGH 16:32, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I've made a wikiproject banner, member banner and started putting the banners on articles that should be in the project. I am still eagerly awaiting your thoughts and contributions.--SGGH 13:46, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Are you actually still wanting to be a part of this wikiproject? Please let me know, I've begun recruitment and so on.--SGGH 15:20, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Further apologies from me, as I'm still not sure if you want to lead the project, technically its your project as you set it up, iv just been in your shoes for a little while, so to speak.--SGGH 17:53, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Well, glad to see that we're now in communication, and I have to say that I would be very willing to let you take over as leader, but I would appreciate some form of position. Your decision really. --Chachu207 ::: Talk to me 18:10, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Concordia Newsletter

NEWSLETTER

Concordia is currently trying to relaunch. I, and all the members of the ex-council, wish to welcome new members to the group. We are a group who aim to promote remaining civil, in an environment where messages can easily be interpretated wrongly.

[edit] Help out now!

• Try and help people remain civil! Talk to them, and help them in any way possible. Do not be afraid to use the talk page.
• Give people the Civility Barnstar.
• Make and spread some Wikitokens so people know there are people to help if they want assistance.
• Add banners or logos to your userpage to show your support.
• Suggest some ideas! Add 'em to the talk page.

We are a community, so can only work though community contributions and support. It's the helping that counts.

[edit] Decision Making

The council expired one month ago, but due to the current position of the group the current council will remain until the position of the group can be assessed, and whether it would be sensible to keep Concordia going. For most decisions, however, it will be decided by all who choose to partake in discussions. I am trying to relaunch because of the vast amounts of new members we have received, demonstrating that the aims are supported.

If you wish to opt of of further talk-page communications, just let us know here.

- Ian¹³/t 20:29, 13 December 2006 (UTC). Kindly delivered by MiszaBot.

Ahh I see, he detains people who steal from the store, right. If you have anymore questions about police work or the like, don't hesitate to contact me, on my talk page. Sorry about providing the wrong link to your question, i thought it was on the help desk instead of the reference desk =[ Best regards Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 10:39, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes but as long as he doesn't say the word "police" or have any items that only the police have (eg. batons, cs gas) he should at least have the words "security" on his front and back (front badge = breast patch, back = large) and if asked if he is police, to answer no immediately. I hope this answer your question =] Best Regards Dep. Garcia ( Talk + | Help Desk | Complaints ) 08:57, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Template:Moved to Reference Desk

A tag has been placed on Template:Moved to Reference Desk requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).

Thanks. --MZMcBride (talk) 22:02, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
