My User Talk is too quiet. I need something to talk about. :P
Clearly, you are just too boring. Boo ;) Keolah 21:52, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
I noticed you are categorized as a Wikipedian by alignment. If you are in to userboxes, there are now infoboxes available using a standard template. See the alignment category page for details. This is a copied announcement, please reply on My Talk Page or in the category talk if you have any questions. xaosflux Talk/CVU 18:50, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Another new wiki
editFunny to see the message above, I've stopped here for a similar reason. The new wiki I'm working on is about depression, and I notice you mention that on your user page. It's part of Wikicities, a project started by Jimbo and Angela. The project as a whole covers many subjects, but the little corner I'm developing is an attempt to produce a definitive resource for people suffering from, or affected by, depression. If you are interested, it would be great if you would have a look. The url is http://depression.wikicities.com/wiki/Main_Page . Thanks -- sannse (talk) 09:36, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Crossed out EU flag
editHello, I noticed you use a flag on your page that some others crossed out on their pages. Would you be willing to leave a note here in order to show them it is offensive? De mortuis... 19:11, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia's LGBT Community
edit
Hi, Zarggg!
You may not know that Wikipedia has both an LGBT Notice Board and an LGBT Studies WikiProject. If you haven't yet done so, take a look at both of them. They sorely need attention and participation! Some things on the "To-Do List" that merit particular attention include:
Please feel free to participate in any or all of these activities! And if you feel like it, add yourself to either the Noticeboard Members or the WikiProject Participants - or both! | |||
Glad you're a part of Wikipedia - and Thanks! | This invitation posted here by SatyrTN -- talk Please remove it if you so desire. |

Fair use rationale for Image:DragonForceSonicFirestormAlbumCover.jpg
editThanks for uploading or contributing to Image:DragonForceSonicFirestormAlbumCover.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk 14:44, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
Valley of the Damned (demo)
editA proposed deletion template has been added to the article Valley of the Damned (demo), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}}
to the top of Valley of the Damned (demo). Fabrictramp (talk) 15:09, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Operation COOKIE MONSTER
editNotification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
editHello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 22:00, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
