[change] WWE Diva's Championship
Why did you nominate that page for QD per QD R3? It's not an uncommon typo, it's a new championship announced last night.-- † ChristianMan16 19:34, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
- That is common placement for an article on enWP and I just want to have it covered to redirect it to the main article cause there's no call for it yet. It is linked here though...From now on check Special:Whatlinkshere before nominating for that reason again.-- † ChristianMan16 19:40, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] RE: List of World Wrestling Entertainment alumni vs WWE Alumni
Done - It was the same list. Cheers -- ✰AmericanEagle 20:18, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] Just a suggestion
But when it comes to questions about wrestling related stuff I think you should address me because I'm the "Wrestling Freak" on Simple. Like I said, just a suggestion.-- † ChristianMan16 07:00, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] You're too quick!
Haha! Thats twice now, With the Old Firm and Gretna FC. Both resulted in edit conflicts before I could add the other info. Thanks for adding the cat's though, I'm not that experienced with them... ← κεηηε∂γ (talk) 10:52, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I'm quick alright! The traffic on this wiki is slow so I can watch with eagle eyes! No worries about the categories. You'll get used to them. Let me know if I can help with anything. All the best, The Rambling Man (talk) 10:54, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
- I think you're stalking me ;-) ← κεηηε∂γ (talk) 12:50, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
- I think it's primarily because you and I are the only people editing right now! The Rambling Man (talk) 12:54, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

[change] Turn of events...
You must be having a pretty good day! What I difference a day can make. Congrats (to be) -- ApEtSIG 17:24, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] RfA
Glad to see you're running for an RfA here. I'm sure you'll lend a great hand here too. =) нмŵוτнτ 20:27, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
- Good job so far on your RfA! I'm certain that it will pass. I am also going to send you an email right now. Cheers, Razorflame 21:50, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] Oops
I thought it was a vote not marked correctly...sorry...I didn't know.-- † ChristianMan16 18:00, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

I support your RFA and I think that now it's ok. ;) --vector ^_^ (talk) 06:51, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] Editor review
Hello. I was wondering if you could review me. Thanks, RyanCross (talk) 08:12, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, you don't have to if you don't want. I don't want you to think I was forcing you to. Regards, RyanCross (talk) 09:51, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- Wayhey! Don't do that! That was not what I meant! Microchip 09:54, Tuesday, June 17 2008 Utc
- Okay then. Well, it's up to you Rambling Man. You don't have to review me. Best, RyanCross (talk) 09:59, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- While I don't fully understand that little discussion (!) I'm happy to review your work Ryan. Allow me some time to check how you're getting on and I'll post you my thoughts. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:20, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, I appreciate it. And about the above discussion. You see, I asked User:Microchip08 to review me also, but s/he said that I was canvassing. I thought that asking someone to review you politly and only asking once wasn't canvassing. I thought that forcing someone to review you by asking many times was canvassing. Mircochip thought I was right, but I already striked my request for you to review me here, thus, leading him to say "Wayhey! Don't do that! That was not what I meant!". I then unstruked my cmt. Confusing, but that's what happened. Nothing went wrong. Anyway, I'll be hoping for a feedback on my editing. Best, RyanCross (talk) 10:27, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, by the way. I would support your RfA, but I can't because the policies state that I can't !vote on RfAs that were active when I created my account. Anyway, I'll be waiting for your review on me. ;) -- RyanCross (talk) 07:54, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

[change] Sysop rights
Congratulations, you're now an administrator. I suggest you take a quick re-read of our policies and guidelines, and make sure you check your email regularly. If you ever need any help at all, you can always ask me or another administrator. Thanks --vector ^_^ (talk) 11:55, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
- Congrats! You'll do fine. ;) -- Ryan†Cross (talk) 11:56, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

[change] My recent revert
Hello. Again, I know it is not a big deal, but congrats on the adminship. Anyway, I'm usually good at telling vandalism from good faith edits apart, but in this case, I'm not so sure of. Can I have what you think on the situation? -- Ryan†Cross (talk) 08:23, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks. I'll use the undo tool next time, explaining why I reverted it the next time I encounter a change that is similar to it. I think a {{test1}} would be appropriate too, right? Either that, it would be {{spam}}. Thoughts? -- Ryan†Cross (talk) 08:30, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
- This is what I did. If you think it should be changed, then feel free to change it and tell me. But I thought it was a good warning to start with. -- Ryan†Cross (talk) 08:42, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] Deletions
Please clear the default summary before deleting, they can be quite offensive, and they can't be removed. See Special:Preferences in Gadgets. Thanks. Majorly talk 14:52, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] float:center;
fyi, float:center; doesn't do anything; valid values are left, right, none. For centering a block-level element you want margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto; or similar code; for centering inside block-level elements, use text-align:center;. Also, 'beige' is not a standard color value; some browsers will support it, but some may not (mine did); it doesn't validate though, so you should avoid it; use numbers. I never user named colors other than Black, White, Red, Green, and Blue (and validators whinge if you don't capitalize the first letter).
Saw this; good on ya. Cheers, Jack Merridew 16:16, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
- Or he could just type <div align="center">insert text here</div>.-- † ChristianMan16 22:18, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
- You would be best-off not following ChristianMan16's advice; align="center" is deprecated in strict doc-types. He's looking for;
- <div style="text-align: center;">insert text here</div>
- Cheers, Jack Merridew 11:19, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- What you want him to do only centers text...while mine centers everything within it.-- † ChristianMan16 13:10, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

- try it… Jack Merridew 15:02, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- Guys, guys, thanks for all the advice but I guess you're referring to the box I copied from en-wiki and pasted over here to say RFA thanks. I don't mean to be rude but I didn't really care what the markup was doing, I just liked the colour and the cat...! Thanks for your advice.... The Rambling Man (talk) 14:40, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

[change] Why I opposed your RfA
I opposed because I don't know you as an editor. I still though you needed more time in all the "special" pages of S.E. Wikipedia as in the Wikipedia namespace. You are a trusted editor on enWP which is why you've made it to first Admin status then 'Crat status. But those powers there doesn't mean I can automatically entrust you with Admin status here. Plain and simple aI don't know you so on those grounds I couldn't support you RfA. But obviously that doesn't matter cause you are now an Admin here.....CONGRATS!!!!!-- † ChristianMan16 22:16, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] Questions
Ohai Rambling Man. :) I had a question. Is this really necessary to do? Oh, and my other question was how do you think I'm doing so far here in my editing, reverting, etc. Thanks, RyanCross (talk) 16:30, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
[change] RE: Charles Spurgeon
That makes sense, but I am horrible at British English and my spell-checker says they're wrong. Any work you could do for that is would be needed - that's something that I cannot do. Cheers -- America †alk 22:56, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
