Hi there Homestar Coder.  When you made the [[Template:talktobedeleted|talktobedeleted template]], was your intention what is described on the [[:Category:To be deleted]] page?[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]]  --  [[User:Tom|Tom]] 03:09, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:Nope. The idea was a template that can go on the talk page of an ''article'' which is going to be deleted, so people know what the conversation is about... The intention stated on "Category: To be deleted" is also valid, but I would have reworded the template more (talktobedeleted says "This article is pending deletion...). Should I create a new one that says "This talk page is pending deletion", or what? {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 03:40, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

::Yeah, that's what I figured.  No, I don't really think we need a seperate template for the deleting of talk pages.  I could see where the confusion arose though, since the two templates share the category.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]]  --  [[User:Tom|Tom]] 04:24, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

-
:::Did we ever figure out a better wording for the template?  I just changed it to  "The article this talk page accompanies is currently pending deletion"?  It doesn't sound too good, but I wanted to clear that up, along with the instructions on the [[:Category:To be deleted]] page.  What do you think?[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]]  --  [[User:Tom|Tom]] 18:06, 2 Aug 2005 (UTC)

::::I think the new wording clears it up, but I think we should have another template to use to signal that we are pending deletion on the talk page and not the article. Like when an anonny creates a talk page like, "Home* Runnuw Rulez!"

:::::I think the tobedeleted template works well enough for that.  I don't really worry about the link to the Talk:Talk: page.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]]  --  [[User:Tom|Tom]] 18:34, 2 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Just to satisfy your curiosity, and for no other reason, the anonny followed the link at [[Template:checkstuffpage]] and created a page that was, thus, STUFF/checkstuffpage. &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 14:36, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Hey Amanda. I wanted to point out that adding <nowiki>{{mprotected}}</nowiki> to an image does not protect non-sysops from editing it. You have to protect it with an admin command. Also, don't forget to unprotect [[:Image:20050818 fanstuff hsr wedding invite.PNG]]. Thanks! &mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 18:33, 19 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Willy on Wheels

In order to properly block this troll (when he's not using a user name, he's recognizable by his IP number: his always begins "65.167.69") you have to block the whole range; he's been known to switch IP addresses on a whim should one get blocked. In order to do this, block the range as "65.167.69.0/24". Of course, I'm || this close to putting a permanent ban on the range, but I fear that such an action would block many totally legit users. --Jay (Gobble) 16:39, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)

I had no idea that that was Willy on Wheels. Doesn't he usually move pages rather than creating crap pages? Thanks for the notice though. Homestar Coderhomestar-coder-sig.gif 16:46, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)
It could be a coincidence, and some other troll just happened to stumble into the range. But the IP address matched. --Jay (Gobble) 16:49, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)

TGS Template

Nice work with the Stinkoman 20X6 Template (a good idea that someone should have come up with a long time ago) but we already have a Teen Girl Squad template. --Jay (Gobble) 19:08, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I just saw that. Oops. I don't know how I could've missed that when I checked TGS #1. Homestar Coderhomestar-coder-sig.gif 19:09, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Picture orginazing

Nice work on all those pictures when I'm away! You're much faster than me. Anyway, It's Dot Com asked us to patrol our edits. I'm going to do the most recent now, but after that could you continue the patroling? — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 19:20, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)

I don't patrol edits (in the sense of marking the stupid checkbox). I happen to think that the patrol box is a really bad idea. Sorry I can't help you out. Homestar Coderhomestar-coder-sig.gif 19:22, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
As you wish. I'll do it. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 19:23, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
I continue to question the utility of that, but whatever floats your boat. (By the way, great jorb on the picture captioning, and great idea for a new project!) Homestar Coderhomestar-coder-sig.gif 19:25, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Thanks. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 19:30, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
I thought I'd be cool and try and patrol them all, but there's just to many of them. w00t, Homestar Coder.
Joe tought me this trick when patrolling edits: it's better to open a whole bunch with tabs in Firefox (or any other tabbed browser), and patrol from there. I can get through a good 30 in three or four minutes. I suggest patrolling your edits, as it makes Recent Changes easier on the eyes for all of us. :) —FireBird|Talk 23:31, 13 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Just for fun, I timed myself. I patrolled 30 edits in 1:33:60. Those numbers were way off. :) —FireBird|Talk 23:36, 13 Sep 2005 (UTC)

An Answer

You just asked where that 'Powered By The Cheat' screenshot is from. I think it's from crazy cartoon. Behold my skills to gather data quickly. I didn't know how to change it myself, so I dropped you a line. --DorianGray

I think you're right. And changing image information is quite easy: just click on the image and then on the edit tab. Homestar Coderhomestar-coder-sig.gif 22:01, 13 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Well, I figured you could do it quicker and make it look all uniform with all the other ones you've been doing faster than I could. (Of course, you'd be hard-pressed to do anything fast if I keep sending you comments...) Anyways, good luck. And if you need more image sources found in a hurry, keep me in mind. --DorianGray
Thank you for your help! And my captions aren't all that uniform. I'm just trying to put a good description with links on each image. Homestar Coderhomestar-coder-sig.gif 22:07, 13 Sep 2005 (UTC)
