Simple Logo
Hi,
creating a transparent logo from a non-transparent one is a lot harder than just using the existing transparent one as a template. I would ask you to keep in place the Simple Logo I created, in order to maintain the distinction between the projects, until a better replacement can be found.-Eloquence* 19:21, Feb 13, 2005 (UTC)
Wikijunior Solar System Needs You
Danny Wool has challenged us to get Wikijunior Solar System out to hurricane evacuees by October 32005. This is going to be tough!
You expressed interest in WikiJunior. Would you be willing now to join the push to get Wikijunior Solar System completed?

Wik's back
Thought you'd like to note that the above hard banned troll appears to have yet another new sockpuppet: Rivarez. Same old articles, same old trolling techniques. He's received 2 x 24hr bans in the last 3 days for breaking the 3RR against consensus at Sealand. I've already advised Jimbo. --Gene_poole 07:56, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
Bio infobox
That was a triumph, getting a chance to refer to the unwiki no-no of page "ownership", wasn't it? Your own editing implies that you do think there are such things as page owners, actually: the creators of templates. You're too downy to say so, but your actions say it. Please note the number of people at WP:TfD who vote "Keep" for the bio infobox on the express condition that the "editors" of the page get to decide whether it's appropriate to use or not; it really doesn't look to me like the word "editors" in those votes refers to template warriors who have never edited the pages before--never mind who created the damn articles--who have never edited them. Btw, I don't know if you noticed I reinserted your TfD vote, after you'd expressed on Fvw's talkpage how strongly you felt about it? Fvw didn't like it, but he wore it. Please don't think I mention it because I expect any return of graciousness from you, I'm done with that. Bishonen | talk 09:12, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
KnightRider Bot
Hi,
I'm the mantainer of KnightRider bot that you have banned in simple wikipedia. I know its an authorized bot, but i was only updating interwiki links for the years and the days. Nothing else, and that's why I dont requested an authorization.
I have an 200kb+ of warnings for the simple wikipedia. If you don't want to allow the bot just say it and i will spend my time in others wikis.

John Vanbrugh
Do you think you could lay off the squabbling in this article? If I perceive that you're adopting an intransigent attitude and edit warring in the face of consensus, I'll put a proposal to block you on WP:AN/I and see how it flies. I don't want to have to do that. Work out your differences on the talk page, and stop edit warring meanwhile. --Tony Sidaway 17:48, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
- A look at the recent history of John Vanbrugh shows that you're reverting more than anyone else in the edit war over this not-particularly important box thing. Would you please stop edit-warring, and engage in discussion instead? — Matt Crypto 18:21, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
Template:Infobox Country
Your change here has broken this template on every page it appears. Please undo it and propose the change on the talk page. -- Netoholic @ 05:04, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
- Sorry about that. That wasn't the change I meant to save; I just got confused about tabs or something. Fixed now. dbenbenn | talk 05:08, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
- No you don't understand. My comment was two parts - 1> Undo your edit and 2> Propose the change on talk. I do not understand the need for your change, and it produces ugly ugly HTML and could actually break the page for various browsers. Please undo it for now and post your reasoning on talk before re-implementing it. -- Netoholic @ 05:11, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
- I always hate it when people ask me to revert myself. How about you revert, if you choose to, and I'll propose the change on the talk page. But before you revert, check out Poland. dbenbenn | talk 05:13, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
- No you don't understand. My comment was two parts - 1> Undo your edit and 2> Propose the change on talk.

Please undo it for now and post your reasoning on talk before re-implementing it. -- Netoholic @ 05:11, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
- How about you take a look at this section of rendered HTML from another country article -
<div style="width: 125px; border-style: {{{flag_border}}}solid; border-color: {{{flag_border}}}black; border-width: {{{flag_border}}}1px">. Fuckin' ugly. Please show some respect to your fellow editors and revert yourself. -- Netoholic @ 05:17, 1 October 2005 (UTC)- Yes, I'm aware of that. As far as I know, any web browser that knows about CSS at all will simply ignore broken CSS parameters. Anyway, please continue this discussion at Template talk:Infobox Country. dbenbenn | talk 05:25, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
Cowbell image
Sadly, your use of the cowbell image on your user page is probably not fair use. See the note on Image:Cowbell2.gif. Rd232 17:12, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
Template transclusion
There has been some recent thought that certain templates should always be subst'ed, and a list is being compiled with the intent of having a bot automatically subst all those templates. The two main reasons are article stability, and server load. Since you're one of the main contributors to WP:AUM, it would be appreciated if you could give your opinion on this. The relevant page is Misplaced Pages:Subst. Radiant_>|< 17:54, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
