Template:Controversial

Hi, in your recent edits to Template:Controversial, you accidentally deleted the opening <noinclude> tag that keeps non-templated article information off of the pages where the template is in use. I have replaced it in the template to return the pages where the template is unsubstituted to their correct formatting/content. ju66l3r 20:34, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Merry Winterval(s)!!!! (12-22-06)

Oh, the weather outside is frightful!... But I hope wherever you you are, that it's warm and delightful! : ) —Randfan!!

Dear Renesis/Archive 3, I wish you a very, very merry Winterval! And since I don't know which you celebrate, I hope you have/had/will have a very happy Holiday!. Hope you and your family have a magnificent day, or series of days! You might wanna install the "SaucyMillionaire" font to see this correctly. Cheers, mate!:) —Randfan!!

God (or your deity/deities) bless you and your family! —¡Randfan!^Sign here? 02:30, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Why did you delete User talk:Jimbo Wales? -- Renesis (talk) 06:31, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

I didn't realize I had. Is it restored? SlimVirgin ^(talk) 06:33, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Strange. See the deletion log. It hasn't been restored, and clicking the undelete page nearly crashed my browser, loading 11300 something edits! Do you want to restore it? -- Renesis (talk) 06:35, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for letting me know. I'm fixing it now. SlimVirgin ^(talk) 06:36, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

No problem! -- Renesis (talk) 06:38, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

I went to delete it earlier because someone posted a personal attack, then I decided at the last second not to in case there were too many posts to restore easily, so I thought I should check with someone first. But I must have already hit the delete button without realizing. :-) Anyway, it's restored now. Thanks again. SlimVirgin ^(talk) 06:39, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

I saw that and wondered if that was why it had been deleted. Do you know if past revisions which had been deleted and left out of a restore for similar reasons are left out again when you "restore all edits"? Or are all revisions restored again? It sure would be painful to restore 11,814 edits by clicking checkboxes. -- Renesis (talk) 06:43, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

No, all previous edits are restored, except the ones I marked. That was the other reason I had decided not to delete it, but to wait and check with someone. It's one of the drawbacks of the undeletion process. It doesn't flag edits that were previously deleted, so we have to know which ones they are and remember to tick them as not to be undeleted. So by deleting and undeleting the recent attack, I may have restored previous ones. :-( SlimVirgin ^(talk) 06:47, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Ah, that's too bad, but it probably doesn't matter by now. It's a good thing we have oversight's for that now. Also, what you said made me realize, that it would be MUCH better if the checkbox meant revisions to keep deleted instead of revisions to restore. In almost all cases, revisions to be restored make up 99% of the process. I guess there are probably automated tools to help with this anyway, but I don't have or know of any. -- Renesis (talk) 06:56, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Slim Virgin has been deleting everything I post on talk pages - she did it when I posted to someone for mediation because she cannot stand the fact that she is wrong. She puts things like "Most people support zionism" and "Zionism receives worldwide support" on pages and when I tried to request assistance from Eastlaw (a user) she deleted it. And then I submitted info to Jimbo Wales and she deleted it. She and a few others attacked me and deleted [political cooperative] just because they did not like my comments on zionism. They even deleted my comments on that talk page. These users need to be banned for their bias and discouraging new users to participate by calling any criticism of zionism anti-semitic. It is not true - I simply respect the truth.

USER PCO 71.135.36.250 08:30, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Once I realized that someone outside of my organization needed to submit the article, I mentioned it to a friend who is not involved in the organization, but is familiar with it. After he created a new political cooperative article, slim virgin and jay gordon deleted it again.

The only truth in the above is that I deleted an inappropriate comment from Jimbo's page, which had nothing to do with Pco (I hope), and I speedy deleted her or her friend's attempt to recreate an article recently deleted after an AfD. The article is about a group that Pco has founded, it had no reliable sources, and the sources it did manage to find didn't even support what the article was saying. SlimVirgin ^(talk) 08:44, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Bill Gates

I don't want to come off as trying to own the article. If you think the intro would be better with both the "respect" and "criticized" sentences removed, go ahead and remove them (both). Gazpacho 22:40, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

I have to be honest, I don't know how I missed it, but I didn't see the sentence that says "He is widely respected for his foresight and ambition." (Which is why I thought we wouldn't be implying everyone loves him by omission.) I realize there is a lot of criticism of Gates and am not trying to protect him from it, I merely question the sources listed: the Nader letter is criticism from only one person, and I didn't read the entire Senate transcript but it doesn't seem like it is direct criticism, but rather evidence of controversy. I think the best option would maybe be to rearrange and reword both of these sentences, and add a better reference for the criticism. Something like this... "He has been praised for his foresight and ambition,[1][2] and been the subject of controversy and criticism amid claims that he built Microsoft through unfair or unlawful business practices. [3][4]" What do you think? -- Renesis (talk) 23:08, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Template:Otheruses

Hi, you've protected Template:Otheruses but the italics and indentation seem to have been lost. Was this intentional, and if so where is the discussion regarding this formatting change? Thanks. QmunkE 22:19, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Bypass your cache. — Omegatron 07:17, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

I came here to ask why you think paragraph tags are a bad idea in these templates. — Omegatron 07:17, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Regarding paragraph tags: I'm not 100% up to speed on our CSS definitions here, but by default <p> tags have default margins, but divs are completely styleless blocks. The paragraph tags actually seem to work quite well right now (at least in Firefox), but I just worry using them in an application like that, since they can be temperamental. For one, we rely on whatever the global margin is set to, instead of forcing the style in the dablink class. Second, <p> tags used consecutively combine their margins (for example, if the top one has bottom margin of 5px, and the bottom one has a top margin of 5px, they will merge and the total gap will be only 5px). This may or may not be desired behavior. Mostly, I'd just like to see the margin explicitly defined in the .dablink class. -- Renesis (talk) 07:25, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Ok. Instead of converting things explicitly to p tags, I'm converting them to instances of {{dablink}}, so changes to that templates will propagate. — Omegatron 07:27, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

I really like that idea. I thought about doing it earlier, but I chickened out because I wasn't sure if the increased number of transclusions could possibly be worse on the server. -- Renesis (talk) 07:28, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

WP:PERF is the culmination of one disruptive user's multi-year battle to try to enforce a blanket rule against nesting templates inside each other. Nested templates are ridiculously useful, make tons of sense from a programming point of view (who doesn't use include statements?), server load issues are largely imaginary, and I see no reason why we should be intimidated into not using them. — Omegatron 07:36, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks a lot

Thank you for your help in Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Template_with_Parser_Functions, it works really well now :D --ren 22:36, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

re: Template:Protected

On your recent edit to Template:Protected[1], should that second replacement have the double "E" at the end? Also, I'm a little confused by that second replacement in general. Won't that always give the history of the talk page? Shouldn't it be the history of the article page when applied to an article? -- JLaTondre 23:59, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Hah, thanks for catching that. It is indeed supposed to be the history of the page the template is included on instead of the talk page (FULLPAGENAMEE instead of TALKPAGENAMEE -- I was fixing instances where it was manually combining two magic words and didn't notice that this wasn't a talkspace link). As for the second "E" at the end (it confused me at first too) - it is the way to print the article name converted to a URL-style for external links (like history links) instead of regular Wiki-links (I.E. "Help:Magic_words" instead of "Help:Magic words"). See Help:Magic words. Thanks again. -- Renesis (talk) 00:06, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Info talk.png and Image:Info non-talk.png

The summary for these images says that it has been "tweaked" to display the background properly on browsers such as IE. How has this been done? I created a new image, which I would like to use to replace the most common current one that doesn't really match the rest of our icons, but I don't want to make it a step backward as far as background colors goes. -- Renesis (talk) 23:08, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Hello! The tweak in question doesn't solve the problem under all circumstances. It enables a 24-bit PNG to display properly in IE6 when used in conjunction with one specific background color.

The key is to add a "bKGD" (background) parameter to the file. This is the color that IE6 displays instead of transparency. (If none is specified, it defaults to a midtone shade of gray.)

For Image:Info talk.png, I inserted an RGB value of 248,234,186 (the color used in standard talk page templates). For Image:Info non-talk.png, I inserted an RGB value of 249,249,249 (the default messagebox color).

If you're running Windows, the adjustment can be made via a freeware program called TweakPNG. This should be done after the PNG's compression is optimized via a program like PNGOUT.

Regarding the "information" icons, I don't have a particular preference for one style over another, but I would feel more comfortable with your proposed replacement if you would release the image into the public domain (given that we already have some comparable PD images). —David Levy 19:31, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your response! I will try to get that done. I have a couple more questions -- When Wikipedia generates smaller sizes of the full image, does it lose this parameter? (In other words, do I have to make the image the size I will be using or not?) Second, when you say release it into the public domain, you are saying as opposed to CC? I don't know much about image licenses -- can you tell me why we'd rather have PD over CC? Thanks again. -- Renesis (talk) 19:37, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

1. Unfortunately, the parameter is discarded when the PNG is scaled, so it is necessary for the actual file to be the intended size.

2. Yes, I am referring to the image license. PD is preferable to CC because a PD image can be used by anyone for any purpose without any conditions. If you're willing to release the icon into the public domain (which means relinquishing ownership), simply replace the {{cc-by-sa-2.5}} tag with a {{pd-self}} tag. —David Levy 20:00, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Is Edit Counts that important?

In my opinion, edit counts do not necessarily reflect the value and faithfulness one is toward Wikipedia. I questioned that why is everyone opposing someone from becoming an administrator if their edit count is only 1500? You can create 1500 articles and only counts as 1500 edit counts. Unlike some others, who is "faking" edit counts, they created 1500 articles with an edit count as high as 15000. Why? What is the difference between the two? The only one I could think of is that one does not have an adminship, but the one with 15000 edit count does. This is VERY unfair, I am sorry to say. --Smcafirst or Nick • Sign • Chit-Chat • I give at 00:06, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your support

Thank you for your support in the RfA on my behalf. It is an honor to have received your expression of confidence. To be chosen as an administrator requires a high level of confidence by a broad section of the community. Although I received a great deal of support, at this time I do not hold the level of confidence required, and the RfA did not pass. It is my wish that I will continue to deserve your confidence. Sincerely, --BostonMA ^talk 22:08, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Image:Information.png protected

Hi, I notice you recently uploaded Image:Information.png, and changed MediaWiki:Deletedtext to use that image. That's fine, but remember that MediaWiki pages are part of the site interface, and images used on them should be fully protected to prevent abuse. I have protected the image and listed it at Wikipedia:List of indefinitely protected pages. Thanks – Gurch 14:02, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

My RFA

Hey, thanks so much for supporting my recent RFA. A number of editors considered that I wasn't ready for the mop yet and unfortunately the RFA did not succeed (69/26/11). There are a number of areas which I will be working on (including changing my username) in the next few months in order to allay the fears of those who opposed my election to administrator.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you sincerely for your support over the past week. I've been blown away by the level of interest taken in my RFA and appreciate the time and energy dedicated by all the editors who have contributed to it, support, oppose and neutral alike. I hope to bump into you again soon and look forward to serving you and Wikipedia in any way I can. Cheers!

Images on MediaWiki pages and protected templates

Hi again. You appear to have ignored my previous message regarding Image:Information.png; you are continuing to change Mediawiki pages to incorporate images that you have uploaded without protecting those images, most recently Image:Stop X.png.

WP:BOXES

Hi, I just created Wikipedia:WikiProject Messageboxes to standardize meta messageboxes along the lines of WP:UW. Would you like to join? You've done great work on standardization for the user warnings project and your input would be very valuable to this WikiProject (you are even the first person I have asked to join!). Let me know. Thanks! -- Renesis (talk) 21:04, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Not a problem at all and thank for thinking of me. However I'll take a more of a back seat role here and help out where I can. Mainly because there's still shed loads of work to be done on the next phase of WP:UW looking at the single issue templates. I would suggest one minor change to start with here though. I would expand the goals to three. In any project you have to identify the initial needs/requirements, I know this is included in your define standards as Gather a list of the different types of message boxes but IMHO it's far more important than that. I would spend sometime creating something along the lines of WP:UTM or if there's a category you can use as a baseline then you're laughing. Soif there anything I can do in the meantime let me know.

Image:Information.png

Hello, I just wanted to say that I pointed out that this picture should be converted into an svg. I'm trying to convert this picture myself with Inkscape. Unfortunately, I'm, what you would call gently an inexperienced user, less gently, someone wich could become a graphist. Or less formally a noob ^^'. If you can create a new svg picture instantly with your vector graphic software (normally the last release of Illustrator and CorelDraw are able to export in svg) please do so as converting a raster graphic is less easy than exporting to svg (like the difference between compiling a software and reverse engineer it ;) ), and please warn me on my talk page so I don't loose my time creating a picture allready changed. If you can't export it to svg, that's fine. I will just ask what fount did you used for the i in information, it look like Lucida Caligraphy, but it's not lucida calligraphi. Help ^^' -- Esurnir

Hi, I have the PSD (Photoshop) with which I created this image, but not on this computer. It will take a bit of time to convert it to SVG, but I do not see any urgent need. I am not very experienced with vector graphics either (if I was I would have done it in SVG in the first place). However, you are welcome to convert it, but I would just ask if you can to make sure you preserve the original detail. As I said before, SVG is good but since we don't need this image in gigantic sizes, and it's not for print, we are not in urgent need of an SVG version. Thanks for your help, Renesis (talk) 05:31, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

RfA comments

Thanks for your comments on my RfA. I don't like to sound argumentative, but I'd just like to respond to a couple of your points: With respect to the Signpost, one reason why I don't use the preview button so much there is that it isn't a "live" article, as it were: no-one reads it until it's finished, and I don't want to risk losing my work if my browser/computer crashes. The reason why I mentioned the newly-written articles in my response was that I wanted to show that I had taken the concerns on board, and was attempting to rectify them. David Mestel^(Talk) 20:38, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi. I appreciate your response to my concerns, and I do believe your good faith in making those articles to show that you take the concerns seriously. However, when it comes to concerns such as main-space contributions, creating 2 new articles on the same day as the concerns were brought up is never going to be enough to convince people, since people look for editing patterns. In addition, adding them to your answers is going to seem like a quick-fix attempt to most other editors, and is not giving yourself credit for where your real contributions lie with respect to the question ("What are you most proud of..."), since those 2 edits amount to only 0.1% of your contributions here over the last year. Also, my concern as to the Save Page button is not as much to the fact that that is the way you edit, but more that it artificially inflates your real contributions (there seem to be many that were within only a few minutes, and while computer crashing can be a concern when editing for over an hour, I'd think you could save the page less often than 3 minutes or so and still be safe. Then again, I don't know what your computer is like! :-) ) -- Renesis (talk) 20:47, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

By the way, from reviewing your contributions, I just don't think you are ready, but it doesn't mean I think you are doing a bad job. On the plus side, you seem to be doing a great job with the sign post, and I'm sure your knowledge of the applicable policies is excellent! -- Renesis (talk) 20:50, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Removal of Nuance Labs Blog from GTD page

Hello. I'm the one that added the link to Nuance Labs, Inc. on the GTD page. I'm new to the Wikipedia community, so there's probably rules and such that I'm not aware of, but I'd like to learn. I thought carefully before adding our link to the page, and felt our site was a good match given the other links present. Blogs like 43Folders and Lifehacker discuss GTD tips and techniques, and that's what we intend to do. Our blog is partly about our new business, but mostly about GTD in the digital age. Can you please clarify the difference between our site and those already listed? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jkhoffman (talk • contribs) 15:45, 16 January 2007 (UTC).

Your Nuvolafied stop icons

Is it possible you could upload an SVG version of Image:Stop.png and Image:Stop X.png? Besides being printable at any size and resolution, SVG icons are easier to edit and make derivatives of. If you could, the excellent icon would be cheerfully accepted as finished into Commons:Commons:Project Nuvola 2.0+. NeonMerlin 00:02, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for the offer. I will make them SVG as soon as I can. I am not very experienced with vector graphics tools, but the icons are made with shapes and gradients so it shouldn't be too hard to duplicate. Thanks again, Renesis (talk) 16:43, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

RfA thanks

Thanks for your !vote comment on my RfA (which, at 23/15/17, did not succeed). I'll try to bear your comments in mind and write each Signpost article in just one edit, if possible - perhaps I'll draft it in notepad. Thanks also for having the open-mindedness to reconsider your point of view wrt the "single purpose articles". David Mestel^(Talk) 17:44, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

I appreciate your post to my talk page regarding my comments at your RFA - that's an extremely noble thing to do considering I was probably not as polite as I should have been. While I find it extremely hard to know just what experience is indicative of a good candidate for admin, one thing I have always looked for is an edit history that reflects a wide range of experience (even though the candidate may be focused strongly in one area). I think with just a bit more time you'll gain this experience, and given your track record in the work you have done so far, I'm confident I will support you in the future. Thanks again for your polite comments and willingness to consider critique — I think that is one of the best traits a good editor/admin can have. — Renesis (talk) 04:08, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

RfA

Many apologies for my failure to have replied sooner; I tend to undertake multiple editing tasks at once and then permit otherwise pressing issues to slip my mind. In any event, whilst I am quite appreciative of your suggesting that I might be a good candidate for adminship, I'm not particularly keen on pursuing an RfA at present principally because of the disorganization/flightiness by which my editing is sometimes plagued; I have had occasion to be irked by the failure of an admin to reply with any modicum of speed to a query apropos of his/her use of the tools (which failure leads some [especially new] users, I have found, to apprehend high-handedness and perceive an sysop-editor divide that ought not to exist), and so I should not be interested in using the tools until such time as I can be sure that I will be able to respond promptly to questions/concerns about such use. I expect that at least most of the projects on which I am working at present should be done in the next month, and I imagine that I might then nominate myself; if then you should continue to think me a competent editor, I'd be quite honored to have your support. In the meanwhile, cheers... Joe 08:09, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Help over at CAT:CSD

Hi, and congrats on your promotion! Per this discussion, I'm dropping a friendly note to some of the recently-promoted admins requesting help with speedy deletions. I am not an administrator, so if you don't feel comfortable diving into deletions - or if you need more info - please don't come to me, but I'm sure that Cyde Weys would be happy to guide you if you want to help. Any help is great, but I'm sure that Cyde and others would deeply appreciate it if you could put the page on your watchlist and do a bit of work there on a regular basis? Maybe weekly?

Request to re-semi-protect Bill Gates

Hello, Renesis13, I think it might be a good idea to semi-protect Bill Gates again. I recently found the article vandalized 4 times,(here, here, here, and here, all done by Ips) and the last version that I reverted was left uncaught for 8 minutes. I'm leaving you this message, because I think we are running into the same situation the last time you semi-protected Bill Gates.

Removal of Meridian Systems/Proliance entries

Hi Renesis.

I recently put up two entries that were deleted by you and now reading the guidelines again and more carefully I can see why. I'm totally new in this and I expect it will take some time to learn and get the "feeling" of what's OK and what is not. I apologize for my ignorance but I'm sure a lot of people have a bad start (at least those that like to start using products before reading the instructions :)

My intentions were not to advertise the company but to put the facts about it and the products; I was too lazy to spend too much time thinking about the content so I copied it from their website (which I thought is pretty neutral but it looks like it wasn't). I deleted some stuff myself that other put up which was obviously advertising so I completely understand why my entries were deleted. I can try again but I'm not sure how successful I will be. If I write pure facts about the company (what it does and what products it makes) will that pass? There's a similar company that makes similar products: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primavera_%28software%29 Are they in line with the guidelines? It talks about their products so is that advertising?

How about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OPX2_%28software%29 ? It says "The OPX2 software tool has helped organizations increase productivity by providing timely information by using Web-based technology in a client-server environment." Isn't that marketing talk? Same thing with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPMM. "It is a pc-based project management software tool that helps project managers to successfully implement projects."

Another one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24SevenOffice. They are all listed at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_project_management_software

I was looking at those companies as an example of how to write since they are not deleted so I assumed that's OK. Now, instead of looking at bad examples would you mind giving me a good example.

Thank you very much. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Proliance (talk • contribs) 19:01, 8 February 2007 (UTC).

AtTask

Well I looked at the article and I could not find any information in there that attempted to meet WP:CORP that was why I nominated it. An administrator reviewed the nomination and agreed that it does not assert meeting the criteria presented in WP:CORP or other criteria. If we acted in error and this company is notable, then you can raise the issue at Wikipedia:Deletion review. Vegaswikian 23:49, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

OK. I'm not going to go through and nominate others on that list. I just ran into AtTask while browsing from a different direction. I was one of several companies that I nominated for speedy or prod. Vegaswikian 00:34, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

My RFA

Thank You, Renesis/Archive 3 for your Support! Thank you for your support in my RfA, which closed at 109 / 1 / 2. I am humbled and rather shocked to see such kind comments and for it to reach WP:100. Please feel free to leave a note if I have made a mistake or if you need anything, I will start out slow and tackle the harder work once I get accustomed to the tools. Thank you once more, I simply cannot express in words my gratitude.

A replacement for the word "portmanteau"

Well, perhaps the word "blend?" That is what the Wikipedia article mentions as the modern replacement for the word.

This usage of "portmanteau" has been eliminated in modern linguistics. It has a certain historical currency, but has been superseded by the word "blend" in modern linguistic usage. Words such as those cited below and other words such as "motel", "smog", "brunch", etc. are now called "blends". Morphemes which have more than one meaning are still called portmanteaux. --RockMaster 22:43, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your message about the word "blend." I have had a conversation about this same word with another user, User:Centrx. However, when I have tried to replace the word portmanteau with "blend," others have reverted my changes. I would like to better understand how to use the word blend—can you give me an example of morphemes that have more than one meaning (which are still called portmanteaux)? -- Renesis (talk) 22:51, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, a morpheme that has more than one meaning is really any word with the suffix -s. It can imply differences in number, person, tense, or mood, depending. Though, this may not be what you are looking for, as it is more of a letter than a word. No word-word combinations of multiple meanings come to mind at the moment, but I'll give it some thought and let you know if I can think of any on your talk page later. It seems though, that if the official definition is blend, not portmanteau, then all you need to do is say something like, "Official use is blend, not portmanteau. See Portmanteau." Portmanteau is not a word that should be used in Wikipedia, save it's official usage. I think that people will understand that, if you give them good reason. --RockMaster 23:02, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your advice! I will do as you suggest. -- Renesis (talk) 23:22, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Glad to be of help --RockMaster 23:24, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

deleting my page?

I noticed that you deleted my page on corrupted wikipedia users. I was trying to solve the problem I had but then you come and deleted it. Citizensunitedforwiki 01:07, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Removing date links

Could you explain why you are systematically removing date links? --Mikebrand 03:04, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Because they are years, which should not be linked alone. Date links are for date preferences or links relevant to context. -- Renesis (talk) 03:26, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
