[edit] Your recent db-tagging

Hello. I reverted the tag you added here. I reverted it because the article had a {{underconstruction}} template added to it. The article is in the middle of a major revamping and it said to not consider adding a dbtag to it. Understand? --RyRy5 (talk) 21:30, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

I have now deleted this article following the author's request - but your initial tag wasn't correct. The article couldn't have been blatant advertising, as there was next to nothing in the article. :) If you need a hand with the speedy tagging, give us a shout Fritzpoll (talk) 21:33, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, and I noticed that the tag your added was invalid also.--RyRy5 (talk) 21:35, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
(e/c)The author requested deletion so it was deleted. But please be wary of {{underconstruction}}. It means someone is most likely working really hard to get the article going, and then it's just deleted in a flash. It's best to wait until it's in a reasonably finished state unless it's blatantly speedy-able (attack page, advertising, copyvio; try and be lenient with the others). It may just be a click of a button to us, but it means the loss of someone's piece of work; this could discourage people from working further with the project. Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 21:37, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
I've replied to your comments about this on my talkpage. My sentiments are similar, if not identical to PeterSymonds Fritzpoll (talk) 21:42, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] SSP

That's OK - perhaps you should record it (my mic is very poor quality)
I look forward to the show and I will go and listen to issue 6 now :) EJF (talk) 21:44, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] TfD nomination of Template:Nodb

Template:Nodb has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you. PeterSymonds (talk) 22:01, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

I've been mulling it over and I think {{hangon}} serves the purpose adequately. However feel free to comment to the contrary. PeterSymonds (talk) 22:03, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Audio Barnstar

For creating and running Radio Wikipedia you certainly deserve an Audio Barnstar. (Well, two, really.)

[edit] Another Audio Barnstar

Image:AudioBarnstar.png The Audio Barnstar
For your work on Radio Wikipedia you are awarded with this audio barnstar on this sixth day of June. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 00:26, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
Actually, you gave Stewie that barnstar on the seventh day of June. :P Remember, it's UTC. --RyRy5 (talk) 06:29, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Radio Wikipedia

Hey, I love your new issue. I was wondering if you would like to set it up like the Signpost? I would be willing to set up the new page. LegoKontribsTalkM 01:33, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

How about making the WP:RADIOWP main page the current issue like the signpost does. We could make User:Legoktm/Radio the WP:Radio Wikipedia/About page. We could have a page like WP:Radio Wikipedia/Subscription, for where people can sign up. LegoKontribsTalkM 22:58, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Resolved3

Just, thought i'd ask you if there is any way to change the "image", as it still doesn't work in my Internet Explorer (it is fine in Firefox). In principle I think it is a better template as it doesn't have an image as such, but its growing popularity has meant I felt I should bring to your attention it still doesn't render as intended in all browsers.

[edit] Issue 6 WP:RADWP

Glad to see it's taken off so well. :) Can I just mention that all protected edit requests are made using the {{editprotected}} template, and that the MediaWiki namespace is no exception. We really need more admins over at Category:Wikipedia protected edit requests! I'm often there and can do the non-controversial ones, but all the HTMl-related fixes and queries I can't do! Please give a call-out to admins who shy away from CAT:PER! ;) Thanks, PeterSymonds (talk) 15:12, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Done and dusted (well, protected). :) PeterSymonds (talk) 18:49, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

I stole it from someone else. I forgot who, though. Basketball110 My story/Tell me yours 19:22, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Simland wiki

I've created an account -- looks good so far. If you want an extra sysop or 'crat let me know. :) PeterSymonds (talk) 20:56, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your kindness! But I don't stand a chance at RfB. Admins generally have to be active administrators for a year (I've been one for less than a month), and been highly active at WP:RFA, WT:RFA and WP:CHU. I'm not active in any of those areas, except the odd support/oppose, so I don't stand a chance! :) I appreciate your kindness though; it means a lot. Thanks, PeterSymonds (talk) 21:20, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
Heh, thanks again. Bureaucratship is pretty much the pinnacle of WP trust, and you can see at RfB now there are two candidates, both excellent, but one's not got enough experience as an administrator so is garnering lots of opposes (six months compared to my less-than-one...Do you think it's going to snow? :)). And I suggest dropping round the Sims articles, getting to know some of the regular users and mentioning the Wiki on their talk pages. I see nothing wrong with that really. But yes, any on-wiki (article talk wise) is a bad idea I think. Hope that helps. Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 21:28, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rollback

Okay, I'm giving you a chance with this. Don't let me down. :) Practice at Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback, and ask me if you need any help. Read thoroughly Wikipedia:Rollback feature, and if you have the slightest doubt that an edit is not vandalism, do not use the tool. Instead, undo it, and leave an edit summary with a reason for removing a user's edits. Any misuse and it will be immediately removed. Sorry to say it like this but I need to reinforce the point that rolled-back good-faith editors can result in new users being put off the project. Good luck.

[edit] Yummy haggis!

For coming up with something new, original and popular... Radio Wikipedia!

The WikiHaggis
I hereby award you the WikiHaggis! This means you are slightly nutty, sorta spicy, and maybe resemble stuffed pig intestines.

Pass this WikiHaggis on by putting {{subst:WikiHaggis}} on someones talk page!
