	Hello! I just learned of wikipedia, and have been finding it very useful. I found a few articles that I thought should have been edited, so i took the liberty and edited them. One page that I edited on (eragon) was left the way I left it. But another page I made a minor change to was changed back, and then you banned me. This page was alchemy. I was wondering why you banned me, and when I will get editing priveleges back.

	I know it's been a while, but I've completed the feature you requested, which queries whether the user is blocked or unblocked before directing to the appropriate page. It should work with any user page, including redirects.

	It may still have a bug or two, so if you find errors, let me know, along with which page you were on, what your error console/dialog returned as the error, and which browser you're using.

	::Probably a silly question, but could you try Ctrl-F5ing?

	::As for the 2 errors, the first is a global CSS error that's not my doing, I actually reported it this morning to ] but was told that it's going to stay there as it's not causing any harm.

	::I noticed the second error yesterday, as it was the first time that I gave myself "admin" powers on the tool. The script looks for an undelete tab to remove, even if one doesn't exist. Shouldn't be too hard to remove.

Picture of the day

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is an American silent film directed by Stuart Paton and released on December 24, 1916. Based primarily on the 1870 novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas by Jules Verne, the film also incorporates elements from Verne's 1875 novel The Mysterious Island. This was the first motion picture filmed underwater. Actual underwater cameras were not used, but a system of watertight tubes and mirrors allowed the camera to shoot reflected images of underwater scenes staged in shallow sunlit waters in the Bahamas. For the scene featuring a battle with an octopus, cinematographer John Ernest Williamson devised a viewing chamber called the "photosphere", a 6-by-10-foot (1.8-by-3.0-metre) steel globe in which a cameraman could be placed. The film was made by the Universal Film Manufacturing Company (now Universal Pictures), not then known as a major motion picture studio, and took two years to make, at the cost of $500,000.Film credit: Stuart Paton Archive – More featured pictures...
