Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://www.aacrao.org/about/ in this case) or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

  • If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
  • If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers with a link to where we can find that note;
  • If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at Talk:American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers with a link to the details.

Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at Talk:American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.

It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

I have modified the original article to include the hangon tag and have added official AACRAO permission information on the talk page. This was my first time posting new content to Wikipedia. Thanks for giving me information on correcting my mistakes. eric stoller 23:20, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Adoption

Hi. I saw your page on the adopt-a-user page; and I would be thrilled to adopt you. Check out my user page here. Thanks, Meldshal42 01:20, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tell me about yourself

Can you tell me about yourself so I can add userboxes; info and such? Please; nothing personal. Meldshal42 22:12, 1 June 2007 (UTC)


Reply Here:

I live in Oregon. I have a masters degree in education. I am a Mac user. What sort of information do you want to know? :-) I have a good sense of humor. I laughed when I saw that you edited my userpage. It would appear that you must have checked out my blog. Eric Stoller 01:41, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Userbox

I added the "User Oregon template. Thanks,

Meldshal42 01:18, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Although, it would appear that one of your other adoptees does not appreciate your editing of their userpage.Eric Stoller 01:27, 6 June 2007 (UTC)


I don't understand why that Timpul does that. After all, an Adopter is supposed to edit their adoptee's userpage. Meldshal42 11:54, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Contribs Userbox

Do you want to add the contributions" userbox like I taught Zelink to do? Reply and if you say yes; I'll tell you here. Meldshal42 13:41, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes, please. Eric Stoller 19:49, 9 June 2007 (UTC)


Okay. You have to type in

45+ This user has made over 45 contributions to Wikipedia.

-You currently have 45 edits!

Thanks,Meldshal42 14:56, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Does the contrib number have to be manually added? or does it appear when you enter in the code for the userbox, if so, can you just type in the code without the brackets? Thanks. Eric Stoller 17:44, 10 June 2007 (UTC)


You have to type in the number of edits. Thanks, Meldshal42 23:27, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

How do you determine how many edits you have made? Thanks. Eric Stoller 00:57, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Well, there is a toll called wannabekate and the above userbox will show you how mnay edits you currently have. Thanks,Meldshal42 19:46, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Do you mean tool vs. "toll"? I am very confused. How do I determine the number of edits that I have made to Wikipedia? Eric Stoller 17:24, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes I meant tool. I"m sorry. If you click on the above userbox then it will show you how many edits you have. So click on the "45 edits and you will see how many you currently have. You don't have 45 anymore though. Thanks, Meldshal42 19:40, 20 June 2007 (UTC) P.S. Did you see your award? If not; the page is here.

[edit] More questions

What is your favorite color? Favorite food? Animal? Um, favorite sport? Sports you do? dislikes? Meldshal42 17:26, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

I don't really have a favorite color. I like earth tones... I enjoy eating Indian, Japanese, and Thai foods. My favorite animal...hmmm not sure I have one. I grew up on a farm so I am comfortable with cats, dogs, chickens, horses, cows, hogs, etc. My favorite sport would have to be ping pong! I dislike dishonest people. Eric Stoller 17:27, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Userboxes

Thank you for replying to my test. I added some userboxes considering your interests (I had to make some)! Thanks, Meldshal42 19:37, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ping Pong

Why did you remove the ping pong userbox? That took me an hour to make! Meldshal42 12:32, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

I like playing ping pong but that does not mean I want a ping pong userbox :) Eric Stoller 17:23, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Oh. Okay. Sorry. :( Meldshal42 21:44, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Um, That's not it. Thanks, Meldshal42 20:44, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Student Affairs

Hi! I noticed you have contributed greatly to some education-related articles and I was wondering if you'd like to join a WikiProject for Student Affairs that I'm trying to start. I tried this a few months ago but there was no interest, so now I'm trying to contact people directly that may have an interest. Let me know if you'd want to join such a WP so I can submit a request. Thanks! --Noetic Sage 23:04, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
