User talk:Pie4all88
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello Pie4all88 and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
- Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
- If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
- Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
- Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
- Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
- Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!
Good luck!
- No problem; it's good to get off to a collegial start. Anyway, just a note--you usually sign posts on talk pages (though not articles); you can see how in the P.S. above. best wishes, [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 04:24, 9 Jul 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Farthen Dûr
You might want to check this out and add to it. It's slated for deletion. Perhaps see how some of the Tolkienian cities are documented here. - UtherSRG 00:54, 29 Jul 2004 (UTC)
All right--thanks for the heads up. pie4all88 23:31, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)
[edit] This isn't the fox you're looking for.
I'm sorry. You must have me confused with another "Fennec", for I have never before visited the Crimson Fire site you linked. Hello, anyway. :) -Fennec (はさばくのきつね) 19:38, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks for the encouragement
But can't work out how to remove the cleanup notice from the henchman article... Kevinb 23:10, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Ok, I went to Wikipedia:Cleanup like the notice suggested, opened up a few pages because henchman was posted there a long time ago, and did some searching using Ctrl + F. I found its listing on Wikipedia:Cleanup/August and removed it. I'm not sure if this is the best way to do it, but it works :) pie4all88 19:45, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Thanks, I guess I should have kept digging... It would be easier if there was an alphabetical listing since there didn't seem to be any way to know when it was listed (or at least I didn't notice it). Kevinb 20:55, 5 Oct 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Chicago meetup answer
Is this event open for all users? What exactly will be discussed? I've never heard of these meetings before, so I was wondering exactly what would be going on. pie4all88 03:29, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Sure, everyone is welcome. The agenda will depend on who visits. If, as it seems, this will at best be a very small group meeting for lunch, then we can just meet each other and chat about whatever we like. I'm open to having a specific agenda, but this works best for larger meetings I think. 24.144.84.219 13:37, 7 Oct 2004 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject: Computer and Video Games
I've noticed your contributions to game-related articles. Maybe you'd be interested in this WikiProject? I don't see you on the list of participants. –Andre (talk) 22:44, Oct 12, 2004 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing that out, Andrevan. I'd been to that WikiProject before, but I hadn't signed up for it or anything. I noticed that you placed a link to that WikiProject in Gaming Collaboration of the week...did you see that there was a link to it there before? Anyways, I signed up for Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer and Video Games. Thanks again for the notice! pie4all88 22:55, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Collaboration Template
Would you be against linking Gaming Collaboration in the first line of the CurrentGCOTW template to Wikipedia:Gaming_Collaboration_of_the_week? I wanted to put this template on my user page and it would be helpful when placing the template on an out-of-context page. - Defunkt 22:27, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks
Just wanted to say thanks a lot for the note you left on my talk page! This Wikipedia is a cool place. Jason One 21:40, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- Yeah, I hope to contribute something to every Gaming Collaboration of the week. (I did some minor stuff on Super Mario 64.) Later! Jason One 23:52, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- I know what you mean. I've only played a couple of Crash games, and only for very brief periods of time, so I'm not exactly an expert. I can still do some copyediting, though! Jason One 00:29, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Hurray for Tilde!
Thanks for the tilde tip, I needed that...Erre 23:16, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Dan fink
I left a note on the user page anyway. Looks like I was only moments too ate in getting home. ;) - UtherSRG 01:00, Dec 15, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia bot idea
I have a suggestion for your propsed wikibot if you are still interested. Instead of using your talk page to epxlain just go to this link and read all about it there. If you have questions direct them to either my talk page or the talk page of the following link. Nth Degrees of Separation thx Jaberwocky6669 02:16, Dec 19, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] GCOTW
The Gaming Collaboration of the week has been revived, in case you are interested. --Slowking Man 07:48, Feb 4, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Wikiproject CVG
Just to let you know, there is currently a vote in progress on whether to adopt a template for the the official CVG infobox. Please take a look at CVG vote. Thank you. K1Bond007 03:21, Mar 30, 2005 (UTC)
- Hey K1Bond007, thanks for the heads up about the new infoboxes. I went over them and commented on them on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Computer and video games. --pie4all88 01:24, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Modern literature
- Hi there, I was just wondering why you've been creating redirects to a non-existent article (Modern literature). Were you planning to write it? I think WP probably needs one, we have History of modern literature at the moment, which is not of a very good standard. Perhaps you might at least create a stub for modern lit so that there are no redirects to redlinks. --bainer 01:31, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I put it up for Collaboration of the Week and figured that I'd start those redirects so that when the article was made, they'd be working. In retrospect, it probably wasn't a good idea. Hopefully a new article will be up soon though. --pie4all88 03:30, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I voted for this on COTW, I think it's a good choice. Perhaps there should be a full Modernism series, like the one for Postmodernism. My point was that even just a placeholder stub would prevent the broken redirects. I hope this one gets up! --bainer 08:44, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome message
Hi Pie4all88,
Are you using a template to add welcome messages for new users? There seems to be a closing tag → |} missing from the bottom of it. (All subsequent messages on the user's talk pages end up inside the same pink box as the welcome message.) Here's what it looks like:
By the way, in my browser the text in that welcome message comes across as pretty tiny...not sure if you want to look into that or not.
Happy editing, --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 01:02, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks a ton for taking a detailed look at that. I'm not particularly good at all this markup stuff, and I've been trying to figure out what's wrong with it for a while now. Originally, it was working--a nice, blue background with a list of open tasks on the side was there--but I think someone changed the Opentask template, which screwed it all over. Unfortunately, my wikipediaholism has been wearing down of late, so I've never really gotten around to creating even a substitute. Maybe I'll be able to restore it to its former glory in the near future. :) Anyways, thanks again for the help! --pie4all88 02:38, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

- No worries. At the beginning of the year, I went for about two months with a typo in one of the wikilinks in my sig. Someone finally pointed it out to me; it felt like I had been walking around Wikipedia with my fly open.
- If you're feeling ambitious, you might consider creating a custom welcome template in your own user space—that way, the only person who can screw up your syntax is you. ;) On the other hand, as long as the welcome message works for a couple of weeks...the users will be able to remove or fix it themselves if it breaks. Cheers, --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 03:32, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Hyrule Castle
Hyrule Castle is up for vote again in the GCOTW. I was that the last time it was up for a vote, you had supported it. Your support again would be great for the artical. you can vote for it here. --ZeWrestler 14:41, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] GCOTW

You showed support for Gaming Collaboration of the week. This week N/A was selected to be improved to featured article status. Hope you can help. |

[edit] American Old West at the US Collaboration
Some time ago, you supported the nomination of American Old West at the COTW. I have now renominated it at the new US Collaboration. If you are still interested, you can support the article with your vote there!--Fenice 08:57, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Ken Kutaragi
I'm requesting your opnion about this dispute. Lot of POV-Pushing, the article is currently blocked. --GroundZero 23:56, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Happy Birthday!

Just a happy Birthday message to you, Pie4all88, from the Wikipedia Birthday Committee!!! Have a great day! |
Many happy returns! :-)

Hungry? Here's a little snack for you on your birthday, from the Wikipedia Birthday Committee!!! Have a great day, Pie4all88! |
Happy Birthday! Mr. Turcottetalk 12:47, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] cut and paste move
Please do not make cut and paste moves, as you did to Climber (video game). You can use the move tab at the top of the page to do that kind of things and not lose the history of the page (which is against the GFDL). I tagged the new page so an admin can revert your change. -- lucasbfr talk 09:24, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- Don't worry normally the admin will do everything. Keep an eye open though just in case :). The idea behind the move tab is to keep the history, and to be able to revert the move if there is a need. You just need to be logged in to be able to do it. The only problem is that you need the destination page to be non existent, that's why I can't fix it myself :). Cheers -- lucasbfr talk 09:50, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Proposed deletion of Sid Meier's Civilization: The Boardgame
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Sid Meier's Civilization: The Boardgame, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Mdsummermsw (talk) 19:05, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
