User talk:Smith Jones/My carhive <---ARCHIVE




ARCHIVE they are on the link on the top of my discussion page. Smith Jones (talk) 20:29, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

If you are not so new

Another possibility might be WP:ASSIST or WP:Mentor. I am not trying to bother you, but to offer you a helpful suggestion. —Whig (talk) 22:46, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

By the way

I think I understand that you are a controversial editor and so you draw a lot of fire, and do not want your talk page cluttered with that and distracting people who just want to leave you a comment. When you have received a message you archive it or if it was something that was completely personal you may delete it as any user may choose to maintain their talk page in a style they prefer. It might be helpful to describe your policy at the top of this page however to prevent confusion and upset. —Whig (talk) 22:59, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

May I help you to set up automatic archiving? There are tools which will remove threads that have been inactive for more than a certain period of time automatically. —Whig (talk) 23:03, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
May I move or rename some things and do a little organizing? Also, how often do you want threads archived? Does once a day seem reasonable or do you prefer a longer or shorter time? —Whig (talk) 23:18, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
Okay, I guess we'll have to see if that works because I've never set this up for someone before, but it should archive threads once per day now. —Whig (talk) 23:51, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
I have a favor to ask you now. I know you have trouble typing but checking your spelling would really help a great deal. If you use a recent version of Mozilla Firefox to access Misplaced Pages, the spell-checking functionality should be built-in, and will place a red line under words it does not recognize. This might be helpful to you in getting people to understand you better. —Whig (talk) 00:28, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
I wouldn't setup archiving on a user's page without first consulting the user. Unless I'm mistaken this is kind of a one sided conversation where you are answering your own questions for yourself. You need to get Smith Jones to declare that he wants archiving, not just decide it forum. Its his talk page, and within reason, he may manage it how he wants to. -- Nn123645 (talk) 00:34, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
Yes, I agree. Smith Jones replied on my talk and asked me to help. —Whig (talk) 00:36, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
Ahh ok, I didn't know he replied on your talk. Carry on then. -- Nn123645 (talk) 00:37, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Firefox

Hello. Could you please get a web browser (such as FireFox) that checks your spelling? This and other posts you've left are nearly impossible to read. Thanks, Mønobi 18:41, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Right click in any field in firefox and make sure the "Spell check this field" is checked. Mønobi 18:48, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
