User talk:Nauticashades/Archive1Welcome to Wikipedia!Hello Nauticashades and welcome to Wikipedia! After seeing one of your contributions, I just thought I'd stop by and say hello. There can be a lot to Wikipedia, so I thought I'd let you know of some important links, such as:
If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or you can just ask me on my talk page Alternatively, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Again, welcome and if there is anything at all I can do for you, just leave me a message. --PS2pcGAMER (talk) 23:54, 3 April 2006 (UTC) Nominating a featured picture for delistingHi, in order to nominate Image:IronInRocksMakeRiverRed.jpg for delisting you just need to create the subpage Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Image:IronInRocksMakeRiverRed.jpg delist with the following content: ===[[Wikipedia:{{subst:PAGENAME}}|Water colored by iron]]=== [[Image:IronInRocksMakeRiverRed.jpg|thumb]] Replace this line with your reasons for nominating. *'''Delist'''. - ~~~~ <!-- additional discussion goes above this line --> {{-}} After saving the subpage, add the following line above the other nominations at Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates#Nomination for delisting. {{Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Image:IronInRocksMakeRiverRed.jpg delist}} Finally, leave a note on the original nominator's talk page (User talk:Duncharris) to let him know the delisting is being debated. Cheers, --KFP 12:46, 10 September 2006 (UTC) Your stub warningI would very much advise not to leave that note to anyone ever again, especially not to longtime WP:WSS members. When I am engaged in distressed article cleanup, I just note all deficiencies I see and move on to the next article. When I stubsort, I do that exclusively. We all work in different ways. - CrazyRussian talk/email 16:03, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Thanksthat was the first new article I can ever recall making, thanks. I'm currently working on getting more material to expand it - such as a picture of the actual subject, which is the reason I created the article in the first place! Lordkazan 16:08, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Wow!Thanks for the barnstar. I wasn't really expecting that, but I appreciate it though. --andrewI20Talk 21:19, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
My sandboxYou remarked "If you need a sandbox, use the official one" when you removed a stub notice from my sandbox page. (I was only going to have the stub there as long as necessary to demonstrate a problem to somebody.) The reason I wasn't using the official one is because it makes it easier to show other people specific issues, such as formatting. If I put things in the official sandbox, it could easily be changed by somebody else by the time somebody sees what I'm trying to point out. So I have to disagree that using the official sandbox is always the best solution. - furrykef (Talk at me) 17:46, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

PASTOR DONALD MEANS SPIERSIf you did not notice it it was I who created the Page. Go to the history and see who did it. Pastor Don passed away on 19th August 2004. How can he do a page man when he already no more????? rencin24
Hey I do know that but listen the photo was uploaded by me what tag do you want me to give for it.?rencin24 06:13, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
What tag do I put for a photo that I have got. I did put GNU(self made). What else. And Why a deletion when you know the article is relavent.
Hey I promise you that you will suerly know that it is not an POV if you give me one day's time before you tag it as deleted. Please do understand me. Thanks.rencin24 06:51, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
I have no idea what you are trying to say anyways you delete it . I will try creating it again. I really worked hard on this page for days and I know that if you make up your mind you can take away the tag, its left to you. Thanks for all you help. I did tag the image thanks for your help. I hope this not vandalism to you?????? thats what peopel say when I question them?? If Iam rude sorry. Thanks a lot.rencin24 07:09, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
I hope you did see the tag that I added for Pastor Don's image. If that is ok with you Cruzrussian says its ok.
Its ok man I have no problem now I am going to be normal from now onwards. Go for it. Let the deletion be done. Thanks. I hope we will be in good terms too.....May I know you moreand more if it is not an offence to you. Thanks.rencin24 10:40, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
The neutrality of the article was challenged by you at 11:43, 28 September 2006. There have been many edits since that time to make the tone of the article less like a eulogy or sermon, and there has been some discussion on the Deletion article, but no more on the actual talk page for the article, which is where the tag says it should take place. If no one has further POV to point out in the article, I propose to remove the tag that says the neutrality is disputed. The possible deletion then hangs on the question of verified notability. Thanks for your work to improve Wikipedia. Please note that I have started a discussion topic at Wikipedia talk:Notability (people) to create a standard for notability of religious leaders. Some should have articles, if, for instance they are an official of their denomination churchwide, or they started some important movement, wrote widely used hymns, or were notable in ways special to religion. They probably should not have an article if they were just a typical priest, rabbi, or mullah serving a local group. We have such standards for Porn actors and sports figures, and it would save a lot of argumentation.Edison 15:31, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Esperanza!Welcome, Nauticashades, to Esperanza! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association. Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is Stressbusters, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We will send you newsletters to keep you up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow. In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Proposals. If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Natalya by email or talk page. Consider introducing yourself at the Esperanza talk page! Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). If you're new to IRC, you may find help at an IRC tutorial. I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work! This is a much better thank you than above :P james(talk) 12:14, 12 October 2006 (UTC) My first barnstar!The barnstar was a very nice surprise. Thanks! :D ~Inkiиgton 17:16, 12 October 2006 (UTC) Thanks!Wow, thanks for the barnstars! That was an unexpected surprise when I logged on this afternoon :) Opabinia regalis 01:24, 13 October 2006 (UTC) Thank you ever so much!I cannot thank you enough for the Esperanza barnstar you gave me!!! When I logged in just then; I was so happy to see it - it was the best birthday present I recieved (as it is my birthday today - the 13th of October) - Even besting the ones I recieved in real life; so thanks, I really appreciate it. It's the first barnstar I have ever recieved; so I will cherish it forever. Its people like you that truly do make the world (and Wikipedia!) a better place! Once again, Thanks! - Jam01 06:35, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!Thank you very much for giving me my first-ever barnstar. It really made my day :) —Cuiviénen 20:33, 13 October 2006 (UTC) For being so nice to everyone around you...- I thought it necessary to return the favour (the barnstar you gave me) thus, I speak for all the people you have awarded a barnstar, and I am sure that they would agree that you were long overdue for some recognition for your kindness and generosity in being nice to soo many people. Thank you, and best wishes. Jam01 07:55, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
Pi-unrolledThanks for promoting this and updating all sorts of pages to track. As you can imagine, I'm suffering from all kinds of post-partum neuroses and my relief at having the thing done is indescribable. John Reid 23:06, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for being boldThank you for seeing a way to improve wikipedia and addressing it through community discussion. I am refering to Wikipedia_talk:Featured_picture_candidates#Encyclopedic_Value. Wikipedia is almost entirely driven by people who be bold. You not only brought up the idea, but drafted a proposal. Keep up the good work. HighInBC 00:17, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
FAC for Britannicai see that Encyclopædia Britannica is up for FAC. while most articles are up there in terms of the best of wikipedia, this article is obviously going to be held to the highest standards. to help make it as erudite as possible, i'd suggest reading this guide written by Tony1 (grab some coffee). he is a professional copyeditor in real life, and is extremely keen is the ways of prose kung-fu. in other words, he is scholarly buff as fuck. anyways, give the guide a look over and see if it'll help a bit. it is really quite good, and worth its time. oh, and i still owe you a copyedit too. i haven't forgotten. :) JoeSmack Talk(p-review!) 08:05, 17 October 2006 (UTC) My RfA thanks

Thank you for participating in my recent RfA. Unfortunately consensus was not reached, and the nomination was not successful. However, I appreciate that you took the time to comment, and I did pay close attention to your thoughts, as I find it a valuable thing to understand how I am perceived by others in the Wikipedia community. Though the RfA was unsuccessful, I intend to continue contributing in a positive manner to Wikipedia, and if there is anything that I can do in the future to help further address your concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. --Elonka 10:07, 25 October 2006 (UTC) My RfA (reprise)Well, it's been a week now that I've been an administrator and I'd like to take this moment to once again thank everyone who supported my RfA, and to let you all know that I don't think I've screwed anything up yet so I hope I'm living up to everyone's expectations for me. But if I ever fall short of those expectations, I'd certainly welcome folks telling me about it!

re: FP promotionI was wondering if you could answer this question. How would I go about moving Image:Archilochus-alexandri-002-edit1.jpg over to the commons? I know if I upload the image with the exact same name, the redirect won't work. However, could I mark the image here for speedy deletion, and then the redirect work? Or is this too much of a hassle and I should let it be and just in the future upload images (and edits) to the commons? Thanks.-Andrew c 01:57, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

In the last month I have discovered the Artemis Fowl WikiProject and have slowly but surely been making progress. I have, however, noticed that no one else seems to be doing anything. So, it's as simple as this. Respond to this message, or your name gets removed from the participants list and I assume leadership of the WikiProject, because I will actually get something done. You have exactly 1 week, or 7 days, or 168 hours. They all mean the same thing. However, please know that this is nothing personal against you. This is a generic message sent to every person on the participants list. Thanks for your co-operation. -007bond aka Matthew G aka codingmasters 10:51, 1 June 2007 (UTC) Gallery on MDF's userpageHi Nautica,
Newton's cradleThis is just to tell you that your animation Image:Newtons cradle animation book.gif is superb. Compared to it, my animated sextant is a child's work (putting the Principa under the cradle was also a nice touch). I can't understand why it is not a FP. I really think you should insist.

Thank you......for your support during my recent RfA. If you ever need my help for any reason, ranging from deleting photos already moved to the commons to copyediting an article, please do not hesitate to ask. Cheers. BTW, we could all use more cowbell in our lives. :) youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 19:42, 3 November 2006 (UTC) Image:Twin lantana camara edit.jpgWill you please verify the FP vote count for picture Image:Twin lantana camara edit.jpg?
