User talk:RockOfVictoryWelcome to my talk page. Please leave messages below.
(My thanks to User:JimWae. The introduction of his talk page was the basis for the above introduction.) --J. J. 21:35, 27 April 2006 (UTC) ThanksHi, Thanks for your edit on my userpage! --Fir0002 08:05, July 18, 2005 (UTC) Sorry, basically whatever formatting styles are in the template are hard-coded, so you can't, for example, change Template:Babel-3 to float to the left instead of to the right. That's why I couldn't embed that template into my userpage.
<div style="float:left;width:242px;margin-right:1em;">{{Babel-4|en|fr-1|es-1|fox}}</div>
As for that logo page: when you embed a thumbnail of an image into a page here at Wikipedia, the MediaWiki software actually creates a smaller copy of that image. You may have noticed that, if you click on the logos at Template:WikipediaSister (which is embedded into the front page), you're taken to image description pages, not to the wikis themselves. Back when I created this page, there was a loophole that allowed you to include external images simply by writing out their URLs (without brackets of any kind) – some loophole, eh? Since WikipediaSister was at the time unprotected (at Wikipedia and elsewhere), I exploited that loophole so that users could click on the logos to go directly to the wikis themselves. Since then, obviously, the MediaWiki developers have closed that loophole. It's kind of unfortunate that they haven't yet included a way of linking images to something other than their description pages; however, the logos on the main Wikipedia portal do link directly to the wikis, since that portal is a static XHTML page. As for my username: I intended for my username to be "mxn", my initials. But I didn't realize at the time that MediaWiki automatically capitalizes usernames as well as page titles. (They added that notice later.) – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs, blog) 17:01, 31 August 2005 (UTC) Ah, almost forgot: the only way to list a user's subpages right now is to embed Special:Allpages, like this: A comment posted to Bug 233 suggests this page, which doesn't work perfectly yet, but is a step in the right direction. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs, blog) 19:24, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
Choice of LinkI got a good chuckle out of your choice of target for the link you made of the word "extremists" in the comment you left on my talk page. Take a look at Category talk:Born-again Christians. Only such dispute I've had on Wikipedia, actually, but yeah, there's that. The Literate Engineer 06:47, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
Tracking down TennesseeansYou caught me about 3 months too late, though I hope you noticed on my user page that I haven't started doing anything boorish like posting in Alabama crimson or anything :) — Lomn | Talk / RfC 23:02, 8 September 2005 (UTC) Not I; never even been near there (well, does Phoenix, Arizona count :-) why did you think so? Best of luck anyway. Maybe I'll get a chance to visit eventually. Mozzerati 14:16, September 11, 2005 (UTC) Trying to get on Toothpaste's good side too, huh?Ya, well she does look sexy in her pics! That trips me out about the music thing too. She said that once in mIRC, I still think she is lying. That's why I did that. I just hope she's not deaf or something, then I would feel awkward. 8*) - R Lee E Treo 700Yes, the official press release from PalmOne states that the new model will be the Treo 700; the Windows Mobile version is the Treo 700w, and the Palm version is the plain old Treo 700. I'm hoping T-Mobile will carry 'em in time for me to get it next year as my customer loyalty upgrade, replacing my Treo 600. --WyldStallionRyder 04:59, 6 October 2005 (UTC) http://www.palm.com/us/company/pr/news_feed_story.epl?reqid=760974 http://biz.yahoo.com/ap/050924/palm_windows_treo.html?.v=2
I was trying to follow your changes to this needy article. Are you merging two articles or copying text from another? Which one? Is it linked to from the "History..." article? Rmhermen 16:29, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
Stephen Gilbert's ResponseHi J.J. Re: themessage you left on my page, I'm afraid you misread this edit history. I was simply moving that user page to the User: namespace after we made the switchover to our new software in 2002. Also, I'm from New Brunswick, Canada, which is rather far from Nashville. :) -- Stephen Gilbert 12:23, 14 November 2005 (UTC) Chinese fontHmmm... I don't think there's a tutorial. In the meantime, do you use Firefox? Go to Tools > Options > General > Fonts and Colors. Select one of the Chinese options. What do you see as the fonts listed? -- ran (talk) 03:31, 8 March 2006 (UTC) So is the font you got displayed anywhere in the listed fonts? If not, try selecting it and see what happens when you load a Chiense website. -- ran (talk) 06:03, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
Cite book template on Du Boisre: Books by W.E.B DuBois - cite book template applied)-- Hi, would you tell me what this template is, where to find it and what it does? I'm not sure I see a difference but wanted to check. tx skywriter 01:00, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Good luckGood luck J.J. with where-ever your wiki editing takes you. I'm sorry that you felt WikiChristian was not for you. Perhaps you'll find what you're looking for at Wikia (christianity.wikia.com) or Wikible or another. In any case, thanks for your suggestions and work at WikiChristian and good luck with where-ever you continue. Graham Technical communicator vocation?Hey J.J., Well, in my mind, "technical communicator" is just a fancy word for "technical writer". I basically do all the duties that a technical writer does, documenting processes, reviewing stuff that other people write, and so on. I usually write using DITA, but I do not work full time editing sites like Wikipedia. As a result of my experience with wikis, I do maintain a couple of internal wikis for my company, but that's about as close as it gets. When I come on Wikipedia, I actually don't bring too much of my work experience with me (apart from doing light editing as I read articles): the only time I've really brought my work experience into Wikipedia was when I helped evaluate the external links and edit the content in DITA. Hope that helps, and if you have any other questions, please let me know. --Deathphoenix ʕ 17:08, 20 September 2006 (UTC) Hey JJWe didn't do that footnote job eventually... Many bugs have already been repaired though. I also found ways to workaround certain problems. See featured (at last) Macedonia (terminology) for examples on those workarounds. I wanted you for a totally different thing: Since you are apparently more involved in these issues, could you give a look to this edit of mine? I wouldn't want to misinterpret anything (actually I am quoting someone), but it seems it is 100% applicable...•NikoSilver• 12:27, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
Hello, RockOfVictory. An automated process has found and removed an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, and thus is being used under fair use that was in your userspace. The image (Image:Black Bible Chronicles 1.jpg) was found at the following location: User:RockOfVictory/Black Bible. This image or media was attempted to be removed per criterion number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media was replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. Please find a free image or media to replace it with, and or remove the image from your userspace. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 06:30, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Empire still.jpgThanks for uploading Image:Empire still.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 20:09, 13 February 2008 (UTC) My edit of you private pageI took the liberty of editing your private page, RockOfVictory/WikiProject revision, because the syntax for the template {{shortcut}} is in the process of being updated. Your implementation, which worked previously, broke the new syntax. You can find more information at CAT:SHORTFIX. Best wishes. --DRoll (talk) 23:19, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Black Bible Chronicles 1.jpg}Thank you for uploading Image:Black Bible Chronicles 1.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:
Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale. If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 06:44, 22 May 2008 (UTC) RollyoI know this is a strange way to contact you, but didn't know where else to post this. I saw your Rollyo Christian Wiki search roll, and I was wondering if you'd consider adding ReformedWord to your list. It's a wiki I run that specializes in Greek, Hebrew and Latin linguistics. I come from a Reformed, Presbyterian back ground, though I love Reformed Baptists like John Piper, Martin Lloyd Jones and Spurgeon. Anyway, hope you'll consider it. --Aquatiki (talk) 23:32, 21 October 2008 (UTC) Wiki-meetup Nashville on Labor Day weekend!
