We answer questions about the use of wikipedia and how to do things. If you would like to ask Ahunt a question, the better place to ask it is on their talkpage, as Ahunt may not be monitoring this page. --Terrillja _talk 02:52, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

It just so happens because I started this page that I am still watching it. I saw your external link fix to CFB Goose Bay and just thought I would welcome you to Misplaced Pages, since no one else had done it before. Most of us try to be be welcoming to new editors, mostly because we need the help here making the encyclopedia better! - Ahunt (talk) 14:21, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

User Committed Identity

{{helpme}}
I cannot under stand the page on how to do a User Committed Identity. I just need to know what to do and what to put where. Can anyone help me? MWOAP (talk) 15:50, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

1. Pick a sentence that only you know the wording to
2. Find an online hasher (google Sha-256 generator)
3. Put your phrase into that and get the result
4. Put the resulting phrase (into a template) on your user page.

In short, that the process. - Jarry1250 17:35, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Rollback

You still have not received an answer by a Sysop so try to get more anti-vandalism edits and wait for one to reply on your request. Frozen4322 : Chat 19:48, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Ok, I will remove my last message, and do some more. Thanks, MWOAP (talk) 19:51, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

I've declined your request at this time, without prejudice to future application. Sorry, and happy editing! Pedro :  Chat  23:01, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Re: ArbCom Mentorship

Hey, MWOAP, sorry for the long delay. I've taken a look at your edits, and to be entirely honest, you don't have anywhere near enough experience yet. I can see that your account was registered back in 2007, but you've only been regularly editing since this year, and not very heavily at that. Arbitration Clerks are ideally users who have a wide range of experiences on the project, particularly within dispute resolution, and are users who have demonstrated that they hold the community's trust to be a dependable user. Clerks are also often administrators, as the tools assist in the execution of our duties. If this is something you'd like to get involved in at some point in the future, keep in mind that positions on the clerk corps are offered by the clerk corps based on a list of potential candidates we and ArbCom maintain. My advice to you would be to remain active, with particular attention to the "back-lines" duties, clearing out backlogs and the like. After a year or so, consider admin coaching or an RFA to gauge your standing in the community. Thanks for your interest. Hersfold 03:52, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Mil Palabras con sus dientes

Just a friendly note on Mil Palabras con sus dientes. I declined the speedy deletion request because it doesn't meet the definition of patent nonsense. --Fabrictramp | talk to me 23:42, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Oops, sorry. My slip up there. I will try to be more careful. I understand the reasoning. --MWOAP (talk) 02:57, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

14th Street Viaduct (Hoboken, New Jersey)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of 14th Street Viaduct (Hoboken, New Jersey), and it appears to be very similar to another Misplaced Pages page: 14th Street Viaduct (Hudson County, New Jersey). It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally moving or duplicating content, please be sure you have followed the procedure at Misplaced Pages:Splitting by acknowledging the duplication of material in edit summary to preserve attribution history.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 21:00, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

I was moving a page. I thought I did it right. --MWOAP (talk) 21:23, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

GA review of Windows Product Activation

I am looking for help! Ask your question below. You can also check Help:Contents and the FAQ, or ask at the Help desk or the Teahouse. Users who monitor the category Wikipedians looking for help and those in Misplaced Pages's Live Help have been alerted and will assist you shortly. You can also join the chat room to receive live Misplaced Pages-related help there. You'll be receiving help soon, so don't worry. Note to helpers: Once you have offered help, please nullify the template using {{Tl}} or similar, replace with {{Help me-helped}}, or where {{Help me|question}} was used, use {{Tlp}}/{{Tnull}}

I just listed myself properly to be the first reviewer. Though on the talk page link to the GA assessment, someone has already posted there in progress of a review. Do I override this or what? --MWOAP (talk) 22:17, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
