If you ever need editing help visit [[Wikipedia:How does one edit a page]] and experiment at [[Wikipedia:Sandbox]]. If you need pointers on how we title pages visit [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions]].

I invite you to contribute. Thanks, [[User:CalebNoble\|CalebNoble]] 09:02, 19 November 2006 (UTC) The page has been deleted as a copyvio if you'd like to recreate it. Normally, if you want to rewrite a page tagged as a copyvio, there's a link on the notice to a temporary subpage where you can write your article -- as soon as the page is deleted an admin will move your page from that subpage to replace it. .:.[[User:Jareth\|Jareth]].:. <sup>[[User_talk:Jareth\|babelfish]]</sup> 23:39, 1 January 2006 (UTC) ==''Signpost'' updated for November 20th.== ~~== Ducks in a pram day ==~~ {\| width="90%" cellspacing="0" align="center" style="background-color:transparent;" The idea of "Ducks in a pram day" actually came from a discussion [[WP:ESP\|here]].

As for partaking of duck, I recommend it, especially with a side of applesauce, but this one's stuffing is a bit dry. Oh, and if you change your nick, people will confuse you with SPUI.

I just didn't think you knew about the [[fair use]] issue, which is a circumstance in which people can use intellectual property because it has a special role in the public eye (as in this case of the controversy) and that it doesn't degrade intellectual property rights significantly because it is being used for commentary and impacts opinion as a whole. That is why I believe it was fair use, and I removed the copyvio message. Not many people study law anyway, and I didn't know about fair use before I joined Wikipedia, so just to inform you that nothing is wrong. :-) [[User:Natalinasmpf\|Elle <small><sub><font color="#CC9920">vécut heureuse</font></sub></small> <small><font color="blue"><sup>à jamais</sup></font></small>]] ([[User talk:Natalinasmpf\|Be eudaimonic!]]) 02:56, 4 February 2006 (UTC) Hello, Aaron ~~== SQL request ==~~ 143.231.249.141 is the only ip that has edited from 143.231., not including deleted edits.

That seemed like a very good start to me, so I decided to shamelessly [[User:Aaron/AdminCoaching\|copy]] it, since the scenario touches a couple of important things you'll need to be able to do as an admin. There are a couple of other scenario's/questions that I think are important too, and Mailer Diablo probably has some ideas too, but I thought it'd be best to start with this right now. Since the questions are the same, try not to look at Gryffindor's answers too much ;-) By the way, if you have any suggestions of your own about areas you'd like us to pay special attention to, just say so! --[[User:JoanneB\|Joann]]<font color="green">[[WP:EA\|e]]</font>[[User talk:JoanneB\|B]] 16:36, 12 February 2006 (UTC) Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised.
