Welcome
I noticed that you haven't been welcomed yet, so welcome to Wikipedia! You're probably very familiar with things by now, but if you still want one of those welcome templates, feel free to ask me for one. ;) *tailwaves* Happy editing! —AySz88\^-^ 02:17, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Actually, the original source is quite confusing, as the date of the source itself is August 26, but buried inside of it, it says the declaration was on August 24, so you were indeed correct. I fixed the article already, though. Thanks for keeping an eye out. Titoxd(?!?) 23:50, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
Exchange Rate template
The direction actually varies from case to case. Americans tend to write 1 EUR = 1.xx USD and 1 USD = 1xx JPY. Just habit. And I'm sure there are similar cases elsewhere. I actually have a bigger plan. I want to make a bot that updates the rate. And the style (1 home = x foreign v.s. 1 foreign = x home, symbols, date format, etc) is configurable thru a wiki article. Do you know programming? --ChoChoPK (球球PK) (talk | contrib) 03:42, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for reverting my userpage. That guy really hates me for some odd reason... -→Buchanan-Hermit™/?! 00:42, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
"controversial" edits
Well then can you please tell me how that is "controversial". Last time I had my vision tested it worked just fine, and according to my eyes that is a Nazi salute. Have you got any evidence whatsoever to refute this? If not then I suggest you reconsider referring to it as controversial.\

Semi-automatic edits
Sounds like you would be interested in Autowikibrowser. Titoxd(?!?) 22:34, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Verifiability
I saw your question to Mushroom about verifiability similar to the one you posted on my talk page. Mushroom answered much more eloquently than I did and gave an answer that was comprehensive and summed up what I should have said in response to your query. Feel free to create stubs for the providers that can pass the notability criteria (I'm sure that there must be more than the four that currently have articles).
Sorry for being so terse in my reply on my own talk page. Dealing with so many spammers makes me too cynical, hence the semi wiki break. --GraemeL (talk) 23:21, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Userbox migration scope
Hello! Please don't migrate any more non-controversial userboxes - not every userbox should be migrated, and things like {{User trillian}} is one of those that shouldn't. Moving these boxes causes needless annoyance and goes counter to the goal of WP:UM. Thanks! Happy editing. —AySz88\^-^ 17:36, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Don't be paranoid.(regarding Videora iPod Converter)
I can assure you that I am not in any possible way related to Videora company. I just searched for Videora ipod converter, having heard of it on a iPod FanPage, and seeing that no page existed for it, i just roam into the offical videora website, to earn enough info to make a stub on wikipedia, anyway I'd even agree with the deletion because it's true that this program isn't very popular.--SamiKaero 22:26, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

userboxes
Can you give me some UBX tips, tanks. --'•Tbone55•(Talk) (Contribs)(UBX) 17:10, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
- In all honesty, I have not created any userboxes myself, yet, but I will offer some advice based on the userboxes that you have created. I will say that you have done a pretty good job. One tidbit of advice is to choose images that look good when small. Most full size images may not look good when reduced to userbox size. In my opinion, your spices userbox is an example of this. At first glance, it looks more like a jumble of colors, as opposed to an assortment of spices. I do not mean disrespect with that comment, but I couldn't initially tell what it was when I just glanced over the picture. Another pointer is to choose colors that will work accentuate the picture, while not being too bright, or in the case of your Houston series, somewhat push it into the background. I can't describe it well, but the blue seems to slightly overpower the picture.
- I will say that you seem to be doing well, all other things considered. A few minor tweaks such as the two points I have stated are all that I can suggest for modifications. I hope my answer has been helpful to some extent. If you have any further questions, or a different one, you are more than welcome to ask. I wish you a pleasant day, and happy editing.

Alpental
Alpental The guidebook information is not included as an actual guide per se,(or more quotes would have been included) but as a historical example of precident setting use of public land at Alpental; which is indeed part of the topic, and is extremely germain to the wikipedia user seeking current information about the valley. MrHyak has a personal beef with what he calls "tree-huggers" and is hostile to anyone who includes information which may not illuminate commercial policies as being in the public's best interest. His efforts at censorship are the actual vandalism here, and he should be blocked acordingly. Otherwise, why would it matter if people believed that these upper lots were the start of the traditional way up the valley.

- I have stated my reasons for reverting the information on this talk page, and as such, I will not launch into detail here. It is guidebook information, and you confirm it again here. I am not sure from what angle you are viewing directions to 'Lot 4' as historical, but it is not in my opinion. The Wikipedia policy WP:NOT states that guidebook material is not to be included, except if it is related to editing Wikipedia, and is included within the Wikipedia namespace. For simplicity, here is point number four under WP:NOT#INFO:
- Instruction manuals. While Wikipedia has descriptions of people, places, and things, Wikipedia articles should not include instructions or advice (legal, medical, or otherwise), suggestions, or contain "how-to"s. This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, video game guides, and recipes. Note that this does not apply to the Wikipedia: namespace, where "how-to"s relevant to editing Wikipedia itself are appropriate, such as Wikipedia:How to draw a diagram with Dia. If you're interested in a how-to style manual, you may want to look at Wikihow or our sister project Wikibooks.
- Also, I have noticed that this MrHyak you refer to has not edited the Alpental article since October 21st, 2006 at 17:16 UTC. As such, I cannot see how he can be censoring any information within this article that has been introduced since then. In addition, commercially oriented information if it is written as an advertisement is not allowed on Wikipedia. In that instance, be bold and change it to be more to a neutral point of view. Have a wonderful day. Kyra~(talk) 23:10, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
FWIW, I'm considered hostile because I tried to keep the Alpental and other Snoqualmie Pass articles free of propiganda, and anti Booth Creek ranting. I see there is a new IP doing changes again (might not be the same person?), but anything related to Lot 3, George Gillette or freealpental links is from the person who vandalizes. I won't spend anymore time trying to clean it up since the person doing these changes has made things personal by continuing to post my name on wiki in the comments section and other areas of the web I just don't have time to get into. Good luck Kyra. Mrhyak 06:18, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
- Nothing about trying to keep propaganda out of the article leads me to consider you hostile; on the contrary, it seems that you would be in the right for doing so to maintain the neutral point of view Wikipedia has. Doing a WHOIS and a Traceroute on the IP that has most recently edited Alpental, does seem to imply that it is a different person. The locations for each are on the opposite sides of the United States. As for the recently included information and link that the anonymous editor has included, it seems to be credible. A WHOIS on the ___domain name www.nwsource.com returns the registrant as the Seattle Times company. As such, it would appear to be valid, however you are perfectly welcome to be bold and remove it if you have doubts. However, I am going to assume good faith in this instance and leave it within the article. I wish you a good day, and happy editing. Kyra~(talk) 00:56, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
Block evasion
Your best bet is to raise it WP:AN/I, where most administrators will see it and be on the looking for it. Thanks! Titoxd(?!?) 08:31, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
