Hi! This is Icarus!, being non-Wiki (I'm not logged in...), saying thanx for the work on the Discordianism page! Keep it up!24.176.20.60 16:35, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hello Xoder, and welcome to Wikipedia. Nice couple of stubs you wrote there, but you didn't introduce them properly. You're meant to start with a defining sentence involving the name in bold. See Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style -- Tim

Thanks for the RHPS tip! I live in CA now, can't go to east coast cons. Don't really have time or money for west coast cons, for that matter, I'm pretty fafiated these days :(

NYC schools

[edit]

Regarding the Brooklyn Technical High School, Bronx High School of Science, and Stuyvesant High School links to Hunter College High School, I know that Hunter isn't in the same category of high school as the other three, and that's why it wasn't listed in the text of the articles with the others. However, it is a NYC public high school with an entrance exam that puts out some of the top students in the nation, and many of the top universities in the nation the names Stuy and Hunter are both known. I don't see anything wrong with listing Hunter as a See also on the pages of the three other schools; it does not take a prominent place on the page, readers will further understand the distinction when they read the page. --zandperl 19:16, 20 Mar 2004 (UTC)

So which one did YOU go to? ;) I guess I could help work on such a list, but having been cloistered away at Hunter, we'll see how much I can add. Is there a general list of NYC schools? --zandperl 16:25, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

LJ

[edit]

I was wondering how you found me on LJ to friend... is this it? I found out you were here when you touched one on my watchlist Wikipedia:Unusual articles — Xoder |✆ 03:18, Apr 24, 2004 (UTC)

On a whim I looked for people whose Wikipedia user pages mentioned LJ. You write interestingly (and my list has affinity for NYCers). ♥ «Charles A. L.» 17:24, Apr 24, 2004 (UTC)

List of songs whose title appears more than twenty times in the lyrics

[edit]

Hi Peter,

Regarding List of songs whose title appears more than twenty times in the lyrics, I noticed you added back MSI's "Bitches" twice after you said you counted 22. Sorry, but, I removed the song again (and placed it under ..ten times in the lyrics) because I only get a count of 19 (4 + 4 + 11). Might you have some other version than the one from Frankenstein Girls? -- Saaga 17:24, Jul 26, 2004 (UTC)

I have that version. I will have to take a listen again, when I pull the CD out. — Xoder |✆ 02:09, Jul 28, 2004 (UTC)

Solipsism

[edit]

Hi, perhaps you can help me, i noticed your comment on the Solipsism discussion page, and was wondering if you could clarify, Strangers in a Strange Land indicates the book by Robert Heinlein, correct? And if so, could you, briefly, elaborate on why it is a solipsist book?

I replied to you at your talk page — Xoder |✆ 20:21, Nov 6, 2004 (UTC)

Unverified images

[edit]

Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:

Image:Indiana.png

I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much. [[User:Poccil|Peter O. (Talk, automation script)]] 21:40, Dec 10, 2004 (UTC)

P.S. You can help tag other images at User:Yann/Untagged_Images. Thanks again.

Banning Tor outproxies

[edit]

I sent you an email yesterday about this, so sorry for any duplication.

I am running a tor proxy from my IP address User:129.21.147.219. While I am slightly disappointed that Wikipedia is blocking this good service, I understand it, and am not requesting that you remove the ban on my IP. Rather, I would like it if you could please allow my user account Xoder to edit — even if it is from this IP.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

— Xoder |✆ 21:10, Jan 22, 2005 (UTC)

How odd, I didn't receive the email, can't find it in my spam folder either. Do you happen to have the Message-ID handy?

Anyway, in response to your request: I'm a big fan of anonymising networks, I used to be involved with freenet and once ran a Tor node. The current system has some problems with abuse limitation though (I was just about the start writing a mail to the or-talk list suggesting better filtering for known protocols on outproxies, suggesting it be made possible (and the default) to disable POST requests on port 80 when I got your talk), and as such it needs to be blocked from posting to wikipedia. If you'll add a reject 207.142.131.0/255.255.255.0:* (which will block the proxy from accessing wikipedia) to your config I'll remove the block. --fvw * 21:26, 2005 Jan 22 (UTC)

I used the wikipedia email form thing. I'll be doing that right now. Do you know if I have to restart the tor server to get the new config in? — Xoder |✆ 21:31, Jan 22, 2005 (UTC)

A test email via wikipedia just arrived within seconds, so I'm going to stick my head in the sand and assume it was a one-off glitch. I think just sending it the HUP signal will do the trick. --fvw * 21:36, 2005 Jan 22 (UTC)

Okay, I have sent the SIGHUP. Consider it done. Mesage me when the ban is undone. — Xoder |✆ 21:45, Jan 22, 2005 (UTC)

Already done. --fvw * 21:49, 2005 Jan 22 (UTC)

AfD process

[edit]

With your recent deletion nomination of Hardcore Wrestling Federation, you didn't go through the nomination process correctly. At the bottom of WP:AfD the process is explained.

What you'd done is miss out the first step, and then make the mistake with the second and third step of capitalising deletion in Wikipedia:Articles for Deletion/Hardcore Wrestling Federation (as opposed to the correct Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hardcore Wrestling Federation) which meant it didn't show up properly on any of the pages.

I've put it all right now (although I probably should have moved the page, rather than just copy its content to the correct place. Too late now though, I guess). Perhaps you'd like to read about the AfD process to familiarise yourself with how to nominate for future reference though. KeithD (talk) 20:46, 3 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Prostitution

[edit]

I noticed that your edit summary said: (rv vandalism by User:217.219.111.130), however that IP address has not edited the article within the last month as far as I can tell. was that a mistake?--Alhutch 22:10, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, undoing too much vandalism at once. Must have mis-copied the IP.— Xoder |✆ 14:31, 17 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Usa-green.png

[edit]

I was the one who uploaded usa-green.jpg from the Census Bureau] in order to provide a map of the 50 states in a not-so garish form. There was one that had been used here had something like five or ten colors and looked like a kid's map used for children. I note that you came along and re-uploaded it, after converting it from JPG to PNG and thus reducing the size from 128K down to 9K. I'd just like to say thank you; it's one of those things I wish I had thought of. Making the image much smaller makes it easier for people on dial-up lines to use, and even if you have a fast connection, having a small image will load much faster. I was kind of surprised to see how much of a reduction in size could be obtained by a simple file format change. It's this sort of activity that makes Wikipedia a better place because it improves the quality of the material without sacrificing anything. Paul Robinson 16:20, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Bcwappen.png)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Bcwappen.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Added template for SuggestBot

[edit]

Hi,

Thanks for being one of SuggestBot's users! I hope you have found the bot's suggestions useful.

We are in the process of switching from our previous list-based signup process to using templates and userboxes, and I have therefore added the appropriate template to your user talk page. You should receive the first set of suggestions within a day, and since we'll be automating SuggestBot you will from then on continue to receive them regularly at the desired frequency.

We now also have a userbox that you can use to let others know you're using SuggestBot, and if you don't want to clutter your user talk page the bot can post to a sub-page in your userspace. More information about the userbox and usage of the template is available on User:SuggestBot/Getting Recommendations Regularly.

If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me on my user talk page. Thanks again, Nettrom (talk) 16:19, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

National Archives ExtravaSCANza

[edit]

You are invited to the National Archives ExtravaSCANza, taking place every day next week from January 4–7, Wednesday to Saturday, in College Park, Maryland (Washington, DC metro area). Come help me cap off my stint as Wikipedian in Residence at the National Archives with one last success!

This will be a casual working event in which Wikipedians are getting together to scan interesting documents at the National Archives related to a different theme each day—currently: spaceflight, women's suffrage, Chile, and battleships—for use on Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons. The event is being held on multiple days, and in the evenings and weekend, so that as many locals and out-of-towners from nearby regions¹ as possible can come. Please join us! Dominic·t 01:43, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

¹ Wikipedians from DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Newark, New York City, and Pittsburgh have been invited.

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions

[edit]

We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:

Views/Day: Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
Quality: Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Content: Is more content needed?
Headings: Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
Images: Is the number of illustrative images about right?
Links: Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
Sources: For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Metropolitan Museum of Art Edit-a-thon (Nov 19) and global online Wikipedia Asian Art Month (Nov 1-30)

[edit]

Sunday November 19, 10:30 am - 4:00pm: Metropolitan Museum of Art Edit-a-thon

The Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met will be the Metropolitan Museum of Art's second edit-a-thon, hosted on Sunday November 19, 2017 in the Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City.

Following the first Met edit-a-thon in May 2017, the museum is excited to work with Wikipedia Asian Month for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of Asia. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely.

Sunday November 19 Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met (RSVP on-wiki or at meetup.com).

10:30 am - 4:00 pm in Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Uris Center for Education

Proposed deletion of File:Polyamory.png

[edit]

The file File:Polyamory.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unused, superseded by File:Polytat.svg.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --Minorax^«¦talk¦» 05:14, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community for the "Editing to the Beat" event of the beginner-focused Wikicurious series at Lehman College.

All are welcome, and newcomers and aspiring editors are especially encouraged to attend. Registration via Eventbrite is required for building entry, and is also encouraged on the event page on Meta.

The Wikicurious series is supported by Craig Newmark Philanthropies. Wikimedia NYC is an official affiliate and supported by the Wikimedia Foundation. Also supporting this event are Equis, The Celia Cruz Foundation, and the International Museum of Salsa. In association with WikiCari and AfroCrowd.
