[edit] I'll fix your userpage!
Hello! I noticed your "Fix my userpage!" tag, and I am willing to help. I only need to know what you want changed, and, of course, your permission. If you would like to know some of my *clears throat* credentials (sorry, couldn't find a better word), here they are:
- I am a member of Wikiproject: Userboxes, and know my way around finding, placing, and creating userboxes
- I am handy at wikimarkup, which you might know as this stuff:
[[link|linkname]]
{{template}}/{{template|var.}}
[http://externallink.com external link name]
<span class="plainlinks"></span>
and the rest of that stuff on the bottom of the editing screen (I know, I get confused to).
If you would like my help, contact me on my talk page.
Have a good Wikipedia experience (sorry, I just can't think right now),

[edit] Just a suggestion:
I would place the tag {{usertalkpage}} at the top of your talk page, just like you placed the tag {{userpage}} at the top of your user page.

[edit] I'll get started right away!
What I am going to do is create a subpage of your userpage that will be called User:Brennerdlinger/User page/Sandbox1, which I will copy your userpage to and apply changes there. This is so your true userpage doesn't get messed up. All work will be contained in the sandbox.

[edit] Now that work has begun...
Now that work has begun, I will make changes one at a time and let you know when they are made. Tell me what you think here, and I will make the relevant changes. When you are completely satisfied, I will replace your old userpage with the new one. --FastLizard4 (Talk|Contribs) 21:52, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] First edit
I was able to get your userboxes into droplists, but there are a few problems with these.
- You can only put so many userboxes into each category. However, you may have as many categories as you want
- It is tricky to format, but follow my example and you should be able to add more categories if you wish
Other changes I can make to improve the droplists:
- Allow it to have multiple columns
If there are any other changes you would like me to make, don't like the changes I have made, or like changes I made, tell me below so we can discuss them.
If you are completely satisfied with the new userpage, tell me below and I will move the new one and replace the old one seamlessly.

[edit] It's Good
It's pretty good, thank you. It feels more organized, and I'll individually sort out what boxes each userbox goes to. Thank you very much, it's much appreciated. Brennerdlinger 23:35, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
- Would you like me to move the page?
- --FastLizard4 (Talk|Contribs) 00:45, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
- Yes please. BTW could you also add the button thing on your page signalfying if you're on line or off line on Wikipedia? And how do you do colours in your name? Brennerdlinger 01:03, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
I'll do it for you, and I will also give you the handy Navagational Popups. However, to make it work, you must use the Monobook theme, and first do this:
1. Open your monobook.js file and click "Edit this page" (it may automatically go into editing mode, however)
2. Paste this to the file:
// [[User:Voice_of_All/Addtabs/monobook.js]]
importScript('User:Voice_of_All/Addtabs/monobook.js');
// [[User:Misza13/statusChanger.js]]
importScript('User:Misza13/statusChanger.js');
// [[User:Lupin/popups.js]]
importScript('User:Lupin/popups.js');
Now refresh Wikipedia (you may have to clear your browser's cache, Ctrl+F5 in IE, Shift+Reload in Firefox). When the page finishes reloading, you should see three buttons to the left of "Log Out", "In", "Busy", and "Out". Clicking one changes your status accordingly. Try it, and see what you get in each mode! Now, just add {{User:Brennerdlinger/Status}} on the top of any page you want your status displayed on! To do colors, go to preferences and in the field for signature, check "Raw Signature". Then, format your name like this.
[[User:Brennerdlinger|<span style="color:#228B22">'''brennerdlinger'''</span>]] ([[user_talk:Brennerdlinger|<span style="color:#228B22">Talk</span>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Brennerdlinger|<span style="color:#228B22">Contribs</span>]])
And will give you this: brennerdlinger (Talk|Contribs)
Wherever you see #228B22, you can input a new value to represent a new color (see List of colors). This page might help too: Customizing your Signature.
Your page will be moved shortly, please be patient.

- Thanks for all the help, FastLizard. I couldn't have done it without you. It's more organized and it's easier to surf around without all of those boxes. I can divide up the boxes etc. now. Thanks.

The renovation is complete! The old userpage is located at User:Brennerdlinger/User page/Archive 1, go ahead and add {{User:Brennerdlinger/Status}} to the top of any page you want your status displayed on. --FastLizard4 (Talk|Contribs) 02:28, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, I have. Once again thanks for the help. brennerdlinger (Talk|Contribs) 02:29, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] NBHS
Hey there. Thanks for your interest in the article. I don't think a reputable third party source that tells me that Richard Shine attended NBHS would exist and I wonder if the statement is controversial enough to demand it? For the record, he went right through school with me, but then who am I? But since you are the second editor who has mentioned it, perhaps you are right. If this is a sticking point it may be necessary to delete. Pity, he is a good guy who has done notable things. Rumiton 10:24, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
BTW, how are things at Normo these days? Rumiton 10:24, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
