Moonraker

Ah I'm glad we're doing a novel. In my view we now need to do about three. I unfortunately am rather busy but good luck editing it ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 12:25, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Blofeld is one crazy mofo and the master of many disguises and aliases. Let this be a rmeinder to you that SPECTRE is a fraternity aimed at sending people off course deliberately through exortion. I bid you adieu ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 21:30, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Thats the idea to lure people into a sense of false security.My page is rigged with a Kreblakistani nuclear war head ready for anhilating visitors!! LOL - I felt like a slight change to it ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 21:36, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Moonraker Characters

Hi, I wanted to know where the details about the novel characters are available. Can you please suggest sources, or expand the section if you have the novel? Vikrant Phadkay 16:29, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Casino Royale (1967 film)

All the referencing on the production side and the film as a whole is now done.

If you go and look and tell me what you think, I'll put it forward for GA status.

Wikipedia:WikiProject James Bond

User:Jamesbondltkill007, who I removed from the member list, is a sock puppet of indefinitely blocked User:Hubier. That's the same person as User:Connerybond1962 and User:Namesbondjamesbond, 2 of his accounts he also signed up with for WikiProject James Bond.--Atlan (talk) 06:43, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Oh, so that's what you didn't get. A sock puppet is an alternate account of a user. In this case, User:Hubier is the main account and User:Jamesbondltkill007 is his sock puppet, amongst a host of other accounts. Having a secondary account (or many alternate accounts) on Wikipedia is advised against and not allowed if used maliciously. In Hubier's case, he's creating new accounts for block evasion, which of course is also not allowed. Add to that the fact that he has edited disruptively with each of his accounts, so assuming good faith is pretty much out of the question now. Read more about socks at WP:SOCK.--Atlan (talk) 17:47, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

HI. I like the idea with the pages needing attention for the films on the project page -please can you do the same for the novels so we have it even thanks ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 17:56, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Spider-Man 3

The lead is a summary of the entire article, and you wouldn't ditch an entire section and move it to the lead, as the lead would then contain information not present anywhere else in the article. The release of the DVD is also not very important to understanding the article as a whole either, that is why it isn't mentioned in the lead currently.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 05:25, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

If you have information about the release in other countries, go for it, but home video release isn't that important that it needs to be mentioned in the lead. If you added more info, then I'll go read through it and add it back, I thought you simply moved the section to the lead.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 13:15, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
I see what you did now. I thought you were adding it to the lead (sorry, it was late and I was tired), but you were creating a new section for it. My bad. Well, I don't think it needs a section, but I'll go back and grab the additional information that you had and put that back in.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 13:20, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Why are you deleting my edits to the pages?

i would just love to squeeze their balls - are you judging me for that..

PLEASE REPLY ASAP!!!

(Pooh the hat 10:55, 23 September 2007 (UTC))

what is wrong noow???

i love men get over it!!! (Pooh the hat 10:58, 23 September 2007 (UTC))

jarryd hayne

jaryd haynes cousin stole my rugby ball! he said he would get it signed, and never came back. its becuase they're from paramatta, they cant handle losing to the storm! i couldnt believe it!

do you think it is alright for men to grab each other's balls when tackling? Do you know Chris Lawrence? (Pooh the hat 11:11, 23 September 2007 (UTC))

can i do this?

can i make a page about jaryd haynes cousin. thats legal? yeah? i will write good things about him! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.239.216.66 (talk) 11:15, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Premiership winning templates

Yes, I'd love to have one marked as "West Tigers"! I hadn't seen them before until I noticed today someone had added it to Liam Fulton's page. I had a quick look at your information on editing the player names etc, but didn't go any further. Why does the Broncos template recognise the Tigers? ~ Florrie • talk • 11:07, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Re:Pockbot clone

I have sent the tool sever admins the email and I'm just waiting for them to create my account. --Chris  G  01:07, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

I have my account set up but I have to fix up a few dependences etc. I should have the bot up and running in a few days time. --Chris  G  10:25, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Sorry it has taken me so long I have been feeling a bit sick and have not had the time to do it, but it is now running(see here with only a few name problem which I will fix up, but the bot seems to be running logged out so I will get yeld at if people run it to much until I fix that problem it should only take a minute the link to it's page here. :) --Chris  G  12:55, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Try now. --Chris  G  10:35, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Strange I will try to get it to run properly on the weekend when I get my computer sorted out I'll contact you then. --Chris  G  11:23, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

OK I have it running but its not logged in! Just run it from that link while I toy around with the code and try too make it login. --Chris  G  07:58, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I didn't archive it, ClueBot III did!(don't know why, but anyway), I'll take a look at that other cat in a moment. --Chris  G  01:29, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Got it working now! Take a look at the cat, it looks much better. --Chris  G  11:22, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Thats becouse it was looking for the stub template and there was mention of the work stub in the talk page, I've just updated the code so that can't happen again. --Chris  G  06:02, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
Its the FA candidate message that's upsetting the bot, just a sec. --Chris  G  09:37, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

In cases like that it would just chose the one that came first in its coding, in that case it would have been the start class(the basic order it checks them in is start, stub, A, B, FA, GA). --Chris  G  —Preceding signed but undated comment was added at 02:21, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

That is in fact something to do with the main spaces, just a second. --Chris  G  02:30, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
Crap Chris G Bot 3 just crashed, I may have to put you on hold. --Chris  G  02:32, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
Bots up and running again, just a bit of a problem with the timestamp, I'll now get to work on the PockBot clone. --Chris  G  02:38, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Karmichael Hunt

I copy edited the article - hopefully it addresses some of the concerns with the FA nomination. Good luck! Damanmundine1 09:07, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

RE: Status Bot Clone

Strange it was running fine, then I screened it and it stopped, I've just opened up the screen and it appears to be running fine. --Chris  G  10:04, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Melbourne storm

Mate you should get on with your To do list at lest half of the Melbourne Storm players profiles haven’t been touched in a matter of weeks now. Seriously you should get a move on with your to do list and do all the Storm players.

Rugby Union

Hello there,...two things (neither of which I'm sure you're the right person to speak to or not!!!) Sorry but this is WAAAAAAAAAAAAY over my head right now:

1. On the record test points scored page today someone has updated Jonny Wilkinson's 12 points against Austarlia (sorry mate!) but NOT updated the England or total tests...simple things...silly things

2. I know someone who's a whizz at all things rugby info/history/trivia etc...if you need help I'll get him to look in.

Not sure how this works but I'm on:

  • A barnstar has been created for exceptional work on Wikipedia biographies and for assisting the project. The Biography Barnstar is listed with the other WikiProject awards and can be awarded easily with a template. See the template page for more details.

From the Editors

The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below)

We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future.

This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page

New irc channel

Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network:

#wikipedia-en-bio

Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

I'm looking for a Vandalism warning template which refers to shared IP's when an Ip has done vandalism.

It goes something like:

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Can I find this template?  SpecialWindler talk (currently in control)  06:04, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Good day SpecialWindler. That notice is automatically added to the vandalism warning templates with TWINKLE reverting, but I will try to have a look for that template (if there is one) and I shall get back to you very soon. Sit tight and I'll be back here in a few minutes. — E talkbots 06:15, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
There is no template that I can find at this point in time, but below is the code that TWINKLE uses:
''If this is a shared [[IP address]], and you didn't make any [[Wikipedia:vandalism|unconstructive]] edits, consider [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|creating an account]] for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant warnings.''
Pretty much, if you wish to add the line to your vandalism warnings, I suggest you install TWINKLE into your monobook.js file. — E talkbots 06:23, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
