The GHIIQ

Hey, EL, I just wanted to say that the Hebrew H*R wiki page is the coolest thing ever. I wish I could help, but I can't read or write Hebrew! =) single deuce 23:53, 5 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Why thank you! (תודה רבה לך in Hebrew) I was wishing for some feedback for quite some time now. Saying that something I did is the coolest thing ever can realy boost up your day. Tahnks! E.L. Cool 04:57, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I agree. The Hebrew Everybody Everybody page is awesome! I took your suggestion to fix a couple of spelling and grammar items I found on your user page. Looking at this page's history, I don't think anyone's ever told you welcome, so... Welcome! — It's dot com 05:16, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Wow! Thank you very much for all the trouble. As it says, I wrote it in 4am or something, so I wasn't as clear as now. If you know anyone who can contribute to Project GHIIQ, can you please tell them about it? E.L. Cool 05:59, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Let's see, about what time is it where you are now? ... 9:30 a.m. or so? I'm pushing 1:30 a.m. here. I would be happy to tell others about GHIIQ; unfortunately, I don't know anyone who would benefit from my telling them. Not a whole lot people fluent in Hebrew around my neck of the woods. — It's dot com 06:30, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Well.. You could alweys learn it by yourself :) E.L. Cool 06:40, 6 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Project GHIIQ is looking good! You are doing Homestar Runner a good service! Keep it up! -BazookaJoe 13:29, 9 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Thanks. I like all the positive feedback that I get. Hope some of it is from Hebrew speaking people :P — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs)

I knows how to read hebrew, but only with vowels, and my vocabulary is limited. User:Rogue Leader.sig

Well, practice makes perfect, you know... — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs)

I know how to read & speak hebrew a little bit, but I'm still in hebrew school!!--bkmlb

Hebrew school, as in Tora school? or just the language? — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 08:49, 26 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I think that he means torah school for his synagogue. I go to somehting like that. User:Rogue Leader.sig

I would like to say that that sucks, but... I won't. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 14:23, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Sig

Hey E.L. Cool. How's it goin'? I moved the </font> tag inside the link brackets on your signature. For some reason, it was causing numbered lists to display incorrectly. Also, see this discussion about using <span> versus <font>. — It's dot com 15:56, 11 Jul 2005 (UTC)

While we're on the subject, you might consider adjusting which part of your signature links where. I keep clicking on "Cool" trying to get to your userpage, but instead I get your contributions. Or is that what you intended? — It's dot com 20:43, 11 Jul 2005 (UTC)

OK, I changed it. It is nicer that the longer part of it (i.e.: "Cool") would be my Userpage. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs)

Signing your sig

I noticed that you mistyped you signature on a STUFF page, which made me wonder whether you type it out manually every time you sign your name. If so, I'd like to give you a helpful hint:

• Go to preferences at the top of the page.
• Under the "User data" tab where it reads "Your nickname (for signatures)", enter the link to your sig template just like your normally sign it, i.e. "{{User:E.L. Cool/sig}}".
• Be sure that "Raw signatures (without automatic link)" is checked.
• Then, you can simply type "~~~~" on talk pages and "~~~" on STUFF pages.

I hope this is useful to you. — It's dot com 20:08, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Wow! Thanks. When I tried it myself I didn't know about "Raw signatures (without automatic link)" thingy that mde my sig all strage-like. going to do it right now. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 20:35, 18 Jul 2005 (UTC)

sbemail redirects

Was there any consensus to make "sbemail" redirect pages? Every time such pages have been made in the past, they were promptly DELETED!! --Jay (Talk) 06:40, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I dunno, did you check this discussion? — It's dot com 07:31, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

There was one here. It's dot com asked for reasones why we shouldn't and no repley in 9 days. Why is it so bad? Sometimes when I don't remember the name of the email but know the number, it's easier to just write it in the URL bar and get redirected to the email itself. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 07:36, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

In addition, a user unfamiliar with the wiki would also be likely to try to type the sbemail number in directly. — It's dot com 07:40, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I suppose that my #1 concern was that redirects like these were made in the past and then deleted by The Paper. --Jay (Talk) 08:14, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I'm not saying the what The Paper did is wrong, but he gave any reasones for the deletions? — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 08:35, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

(This discussion continued at Talk:Strong Bad Email.)

TGS Other Costumes

Hey, great jorb on adding Teen Girl Squad to the Other Costumes page, but you missed out the costume Cheerleader wore near the beginning of Issue 8. You know, the one with the derby, sunglasses, moustache, tie, and cigar when she said "No yous guys!"
