Categories

Most people wait until a category has 3 or more pages in them before creating them. Just giving you a little advice. Razorflame 18:52, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'm planning on doing a lot of stuff on Ancient Athens (it's my favourite topic in classics) Terry (talk) 18:54, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have put an RfD tag on Exposure because I believe that it is not notable, and that it has sourcing issues. I would highly recommend you source this page, that way, the RfD will not delete it. Razorflame 19:01, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
See talk page for that subject.Terry (talk) 22:22, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Archive 1

You need to place a qd tag on it if you want it deleted. Don't just delete the page's content like you did. Razorflame 19:02, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How do I do that?Terry (talk) 22:21, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProjects

Hi there. I noticed you just created a WikiProject and I wanted to let you know that how we are currently handling WikiProjects is to first create them in the userspace and then if they gain a lot of traffic they can be moved to the mainspace. Would you like me to move yours to your userspace for you or would you like to do it yourself? · Tygrrr... 20:28, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could you do it? I don't know how! Terry (talk) 20:30, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. In fact, it's already done :-) You can find it at User:TerryfaeScotland/WikiProject Ancient Athens. · Tygrrr... 20:41, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Terry (talk) 20:42, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Warning vandals

Thanks for trying to be helpful, but I was warning him while you warned him and you gave me an edit conflict. I'm starting to get a little ticked off because you are going and giving people wrong warnings that I have to correct. Please allow me some time to warn the people that I undo before warning them. If I haven't warned someone yet, the chances are that I am currently in the process of warning them. So please be patient. Thanks Razorflame 22:28, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. I was trying to help. I didn't know you were warning some people.--Terry (talk) 22:31, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Just for future reference, I usually warn a user right after I undo one of their edits. It might take a minute or two, but I will warn them almost always immediately after. Sometimes, I might not warn them because I am unsure of the edit that I undid. If you see any edits that I undo and you don't see a warning for that user, it is probably because I am unsure of if the edit that I undid was vandalism or not. Sometimes, vandals can be pretty smart and make their edits seem good faith, but are in fact bad faith edits. Sometimes, it is hard for me to discern between them. Thank you for trying to help. Also, when you warn vandals, instead of just giving them the {{vandalism}} template right off the bat, give them a {{test1}} if it is their first warning. If it's their second warning, give them a {{test2}} and so on up to 4. If they remove content, give them a {{test2a}} for first warning and {{test3a}} for second warning. I hope this helps you in the future and thanks for reading this long message. Razorflame 22:35, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
We must have been undoing some changes at the same time. I've just looked over the articles I've undone and you're names always there! Terry (talk) 22:39, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. It is helpful! Do I need to substitute the template or enter other information? --Terry (talk) 22:40, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you do need to use the substituation thing on warnings that you give. Razorflame 22:41, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
A few warnings that I forgot to mention: If a vandal creates a vandalous article in the mainspace, place a {{qd}} tag on it and use these warnings:

Hope this helps! Razorflame 22:41, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, thanks. Can I do some warning for a while? You can stop me if I do it wrong!
I don't mind. I probably will have to go in a while anyways, and after I leave, I won't be back on until mid-day tomorrow, so have at it! Razorflame 22:46, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks!

Here's one thing I forgot to mention: Always assume good faith. I've gotten into trouble in the past for not adhering to this rule, and I've learned to follow this rule now. Razorflame 22:48, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ancient Athens Project Page template

As with English Wikipedia and other Wikipedias, I think it is the best to keep templates like {{Ancient Athens Project Page}} on the talk page of the article, not on the article itself.

I have changed Ancient Athenian Clothes and Talk:Ancient Athenian Clothes for the same reason. Cheers, - Huji reply 22:31, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My RfA

Thank you for your support in my recent RfA, but reading the oppose comments, I have decided that I am not experienced enough to be an administrator yet. I hope you will continue your support of me in the future. Thanks again! Razorflame 22:50, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Of course I will! Better luck next time! Terry (talk) 23:34, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Thanks for the barnstar:-)! Lights (talk) § 00:28, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

your welcome Terry (talk) 00:43, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summary

Please remember to use the edit summary function here. It helps other editors identify what exactly the changes are that you've made. Thank you for understanding :) Razorflame 20:23, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

kk, I will. --(Terry) 20:26, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, would you like me to help you with your archive box at the top of this page? I can make it smaller for you. Razorflame 20:24, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, that's fine. Thank's anyway! --(Terry) 20:26, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Let me know if you change your mind. Razorflame 20:27, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I will. --(Terry) 20:29, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bulbasaur

Just to let you know, there already is an article about this here: Bulbasuar. Razorflame 19:30, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know. It doesn't really look like an encyclopedia entry. I'm redoing it! (Terry) 19:39, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Terrus

Hey Terry the Terrus! I have seen that you wanted to make a couple of pages on Goosebumps and some Scottish town, So made them for you, I hope it helps : - ) IuseRosary (talk) 19:32, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I forgot all about them! I'll need to update the page they were on now!
Thanks again! (Terry) 19:38, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, Thats Ok. I've only made a start on them for you, I'm sure you have much more expertise on the subjects than I do : - ) IuseRosary (talk) 19:39, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I probably will. Goosebumps are my favourite books and Carluke is only 8 miles away from where I live. (Terry) 19:42, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, wow, me too, well a kinda. IuseRosary (talk) 19:45, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Cool :) (Terry) 19:47, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
