Short articles/Categories[change | change source]

Hey there, IuseRosary! Here are a few good pointers that you can use to help in the creation of articles that you might do in the future:

  • If the article that you created is under 1,000 bytes, please include the {{stub}} template into the article near the end (below the Other websites, but above the interwikis (detailed below)). This will let other editors know that it is a short article that is in need of expansion.
  • If you have no idea what categories an article that you create goes under, please include the {{uncat}} template to the article. This will let other editors know that you need help categorizing an article appropriately.
  • Please remember to include interwikis at the bottom of an article. This will enable users to go between the many different Wikipedias that are in existance to check information and possibly add new information to the article here. It's mostly a convience thing.

Thanks for reading this long message, and happy editing here on Simple Enligsh Wikipedia! Razorflame 03:02, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Have fun editing! Razorflame 17:19, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Userpage[change | change source]

Do you mean to have the text under the heading all bold? If you didn't, I will be happy to fix it for you. Let me know on my talk page if you would like me to do so. Razorflame 17:24, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

 Done Razorflame 17:35, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Some other tips:

  • To sign your name after a comment you leave on talk pages: type in four tildes ~~~~.
  • To ident a reply, add a colon like this
Hi.

Razorflame 17:35, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

I've fixed a capitalization error on your userpage for you. Just thought I'd let you know. Razorflame 17:39, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Religion[change | change source]

Forgive me for prying, but what religion do you take part in? Gwib -(talk)- 17:45, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Part of the Frozen Chosen! It's a pleasure to have you here at Simple Wikipedia and I hope you'll make useful edits to contribute to this encyclopedia.
Just a quick warning though, please don't try to press your beliefs on any user here, there could be dire consequences. Gwib -(talk)- 17:54, 3 January 2008 (UTC)


Its ok, I forgive you IUseRosary. In fact, your prayers have almost converted me... lol...

Excuse my ignorance, but what is 'Frozen Chosen'? Is it a religious term? Is it something to do with the 'chosen' ones... like Jesus... and the Pope? except.... they're 'frozen'... in time??? Ben.(Talk).(Changes) 19:18, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

I am afraid that I don't know either, it may be a slang term from where User:Gwib orginates from IuseRosary (talk) 19:32, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Just to put your minds at rest, Frozen Chosen is a fairly well known term for Presbyterians MindTheGap (talk) 19:37, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Oh, Well I can't say that I have ever heard that expression in the church I go to, But then again I do not go to a strictly Presbyterian Church because there are none local to my town. IuseRosary (talk) 19:39, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Oh wow, is this presbyterian christian melarky quite big then? i personally had never heard of it...

where does the term 'frozen chosen' come from? are they frozen... in time? Ben.(Talk).(Changes) 19:44, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Signature[change | change source]

Ok, here's the walkthrough on how to add it to make it so that when you sign, you can use it.

  1. First, go to User:IuseRosary/sig and tell me if you like the colors I picked.
  2. Second, click on My Settings up in the upper right hand corner.
  3. Third, see where it says Nick.
  4. Fourth, copypaste this: {{subst:User:IuseRosary/sig}} into the box next to Nick.
  5. Fifth, click submit box on the bottom of the screen.
  6. Sixth, follow the instructions about purging the cache on the bottom of the screen.

And you are all set!

Enjoy, and please tell me if you would like different colors! Razorflame 19:50, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Notes[change | change source]

To make a bulleted list, use an asterisk (Shift+8). To make a numbered list, use a pound sign (Shift+3). Razorflame 20:15, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

thank you[change | change source]

i will not however upload the userbox in its current form. Turn it into a template. I am not sure how to do this, but it means you can simply use something like this {{blahblahblah}} and it will include all that code you otherwise gave me. try asking your adopter about it? well done on kaing it by they way... and did you write all that stuff on the community page? Ben(Talk).(Changes) 21:44, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

userbox[change | change source]

{{User:IuseRosary/WikiProject/userbox}} Jeffpw (talk) 21:54, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Put it on a page of its own (eg User:IuseRosary/userbox/music and anyone could use it by putting the page name inside {{}}--Bärliner 21:56, 3 January 2008 (UTC)


Added a bit about code to the wikiproject page. This makes it easier for people to put the box on their page. You will want to tidy up the formatting a bit though. --Bärliner 22:10, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Kate Nash[change | change source]

Hello there, and welcome to our project. I saw you created an article about Kate Nash. Here are some comments on it:

  • It is good to use references, but do not forget to add a {{reflist}} at the end (in its own section, References).
  • If you know the article exists in another wikipedia, add an Interwiki link to that article in the other Wikipedia
  • Each article needs a category; if you do not know which category fits best add {{uncat}}
  • The article still looks a little complex to me, I added a {{complex}} tag; try to use shorter sentences, and replace difficult words with easier ones. If you do not know how, look at How to write Simple English articles and Examples of simpler English.
  • I added a redirect from Kate nash to Kate Nash.

All the best otherwise. --Eptalon (talk) 10:16, 4 January 2008 (UTC)


Barnstars[change | change source]

Would it be easier to use {{BS|message|img=''your image''}} --Bärliner 17:32, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Check out The Barnstar of High Culture at WP:BARN too --Bärliner 17:48, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, i saw that, and kind thought it was cool, But it's not specialised in music, and I really wanted a special one, to music and the project. But thanks anyway.

IuseRosary 17:51, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Templates[change | change source]

There should only be one template per page. I will change this now. One page for male and one for female. I will put them into the proper categories and add them to WP:BARN too. If you want to make them available to everyone--Bärliner 18:59, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Hope you like WP:BARN now --Bärliner 19:28, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Latin[change | change source]

After going through IamAR talk page, I noticed that the prayer that you wrote to him using your IP address was in latin. Presbyterians don't use the latin language at all, and any reference to it is looked down upon by the Church. --Gwib -(talk)- 17:50, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

You go to a Catholic Church every day, both your parents are Catholic, you use Rosary, you sing in your school choir in latin (so presumably your school is not a Presbyterian-friendly one) and there are no Presbyterian churches near you and yet most of your influences are related to Presbyterian religion? --Gwib -(talk)- 18:16, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Forgive me for being so skeptical, but fyi "Frozen Chosen" is considered to be a derogatory term. And I knew that Presbyterians were called that without being one... --Gwib -(talk)- 18:34, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
[very clever -.-]. --Gwib -(talk)- 18:39, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Removing content in User talk:IuseRosary[change | change source]

Please do not remove content from pages, as you did on User talk:IuseRosary. This is vandalism. If you want to try things out, please use the sandbox. Thanks. Bärliner 18:41, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

You have made the change to make it appear that you knew the meaning f the term "Frozen Chosen"--Bärliner 18:41, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

It is my own talk page?. I want it all archived, right now! I got of it so it was easier to archive! How do I archive it? IuseRosary 18:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

You have made the change to make it appear that you knew the meaning of the term "Frozen Chosen"--Bärliner 18:41, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Please do not remove content from pages, as you did on User talk:Gwib. This is vandalism. If you want to try things out, please use the sandbox. Thanks.

Administrators contact each other via talk page. Removing these messages will not be tolerated.Bärliner 18:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

sorry, Edit Conflict! IuseRosary 18:46, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Don't remove comments from either my talk page or your own. This compromises history and messages between users. If you continue to do so I will be forced to protect your userpage from yourself. --Gwib -(talk)- 18:47, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Archive[change | change source]

I suggest you wait. Archiving now may be interpreted by some as a way of hiding warning messages --Bärliner 18:46, 6 January 2008 (UTC)


Fine! IuseRosary 18:48, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

"Religion"[change | change source]

Unsuccessfully? You've been doing nothing but getting caught out today.

  • You removed content from your talk page - you got caught out
  • You removed content from my talk page - you got caught out
  • You changed the link in which Barliner caught you removing content from your talk page - you got caught out
  • You said you were Presbyterian, then you gave us lots of reasons to suggest that you weren't

To quote an American cop show - "your story is full of holes". --Gwib -(talk)- 19:15, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

I never said that I was strictly presbyterian, I told you that I had strong Catholic influences! And also, my religion is none of your business! It has nothing to do with this website, nor with you. SSo it doesn't matter what religion i am and you cannot use against me whatever i have said, because it is not your business and you are not in my life, and actually, you're not "So damn smart" to quote you! you have insulted me, and in my right mind, i should put in a formol complaint for your impurtinance! But I'm not going to becaue you have biased friends on here who already think i'm some stupid sockpuppet of user:Iamandrewrice.

IuseRosary 19:48, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

I don't have to do much to, once again, catch you out. You typed out a long latin prayer on someone's talk page and now you're saying that religion "has nothing to do with this website". --Gwib -(talk)- 19:57, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Warning[change | change source]

Warning I know you may be upset with Gwib, but I suggest you take a time out. Otherwise you may be tempted to carry on editing and that may be seen as harassing or insulting Gwib

Bärliner 19:14, 6 January 2008 (UTC)


Excuse me, after what that little Runt just said to me, I should be considering putting in a formol complaint! He has insulted me, my beliefs and other stuff!

IuseRosary 19:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Blocked temp for 24 hours[change | change source]

You were asked to take a time out and calm down. Instead you have attacked Gwib on his user page and here even to the point of correcting typos and adding to the insult. I have blocked you for 24 hours

You have been temporarily blocked from editing because of your disruptive edits. You are invited to contribute in a constructive manner as soon as the block expires. Bärliner 19:53, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Various comments[change | change source]

Hello IuseRosary, I hope you read these comments. I am open to comments; either on my talk page or here.

  • Please do not evade or circumvent your block to respond, that is not the idea of the block.
  • Removing content from pages (except where it is in the process of a simplifying an article) is almost always called vandalism. If you do not want these things to be known, do not post them here (Note: there is even a way to bring back deleted pages, though it requires admin privileges).
  • What you believe, your religion, is your business; Insulting hard-working contributors (under whatever pretext) will not be tolerated, though.
  • The Presbyterian church is a Protestant (Calvinist, to be exact) movement in its very essence. It is clear that they value Latin differently than the Catholics. Note however, that there were many Protestants (like Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach) who wrote great Latin masses.
  • I have studied several years of Latin; I have sung various (catholic) masses, so if you want to talk about religion, I am probably a suitable person.
  • Do not take religion as a pretext for something else; that is how to start fundamentalism; which is entirely unneeded.

All the best in your forced Wikibreak --Eptalon (talk) 23:07, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

SPAM ??[change | change source]

Why do you think I'm interested in music? I haven't worked in any music article. So I'm thinking you're using an automated tool to spam thewikiproject. [1] Drini (talk) 18:55, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

re[change | change source]

If it's content from your userpage or user talk page, then you have the right to remove content that you deem vandalism or insulting comments. Razorflame 20:12, 7 January 2008 (UTC)


Thamks IuseR 20:18, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
However, I might be wrong :) Razorflame 20:19, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
Idoubt you are, It all sounds fair enough to me. Do you know if I am allowed to change stuff on my userpage, like a userbox, or my age without it being considered vandilism?

IuseR 20:21, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Your userpage is yours to do with what you wish to. Also, it might be wise to change the colors of your signature. Razorflame 20:33, 7 January 2008 (UTC)


  • Cool, I like my sig, nobodu elese has it, I think it's cool, I'll keep it like that for a bit, ill change it when i het bored. It's not that I didn't like the one you made me, I just got a bit bored, I get bored easily :-)

IuseR 20:36, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

However, you are not allowed to delete warnings given to you by other users. Razorflame 20:36, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
  • I don't believe I've done that, so i think i'm ok :-) IuseR 20:37, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Your apology[change | change source]

Thank you for your apology, I gladly accept it. However please note that I was not involved in your banning. I was also not involved in anything that went on between you and Gwib, that is an issue between you two, and does not concern me - beyond what I wrote above. It might however be a good idea to get on reasonable terms with Gwib; I would encourage both of you to sort out the issues that are between you two and to take the steps necessary so that you can again talk to each other.

What I wrote, titled Various comments above are more meant to be general comments and guidance; you are quite new here, after all. As to belief; it is indeed a difficult subject; I also do not agree with some positions of the official Catholic Church. But life is not easy for them either, there is a long history, and there are great expectations which are put in them. So they too need to walk a narrow line between reform and keeping their supporters.

All the best --Eptalon (talk) 22:33, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I have replied to your apology on my talk page. · Tygrrr... 16:28, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Music Project[change | change source]

As there is no music project yet it is best not to mark pages as belonging it. However it would be a good idea to design a template that could be put on talk pages of relevant articles. That template could also ask for new members and keep a check on what articles are part of the project, perhaps by automatically putting them into a wikiproject category.--Bärliner 15:39, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Punk rock[change | change source]

Punk rock is the correct title for this page. Read the Wikipedia:Manual of Style for more information. Razorflame 17:24, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I read the Capital letter part of that, and it said that either both words should have capital letters, or neither, so my way was correct, I think. lol IuseR 17:27, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
Reread it. I am pretty sure that that was not what was said. Razorflame 17:30, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

To quote, This is under the Titles part under Capital Letters "either both words begin with a capital letter or neither" - I think that I was right. IuseR 17:32, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Ask an administrator about this, I'm pretty sure about this. Razorflame 17:46, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
Is there a need to? I clearly quoted it word for word from what the manuel said. Sorry, I'm not trying to be argumentative here IuseR 17:48, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
Ask an administrator. I'm pretty sure that I'm right here, but if you want, you can go ahead and change it back. Although I doubt it will last long. Razorflame 20:33, 8 January 2008 (UTC)


Now Gwib, there's no need to make this personal. You should just calm down and take a break. IamAre 20:50, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I do not think the remark was personal either. And I don't think anyone need reply further.--Bärliner 20:52, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

template[change | change source]

Really a template only needs to say this {{User:IuseRosary/WikiProject/userbox/wpmusic}}. This article is in the project, the project is trying to get more articles. This is the project and click here to join.

With a template you can click on what links here to find out just what pages are already in the project.

Change the colour and size as you want, of course --Bärliner 17:58, 8 January 2008 (UTC)


oh cool thanks, It's Great! So shall I just put this template on all of the pages which I have created as part of the project?

IuseR 18:02, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

If you put it on now, and the project is not approved then it will be removed. In fact they may be removed anyway as really the project is only a proposal at the moment. Best hold on just for now--Bärliner 18:33, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Block[change | change source]

I'm so sorry!! With all the changes going on on my talk page, I didn't notice that Gwib put that message on my page and when I saw you had moved it, I thought you had written it and I took his reversion as his disapproval at impersonating him. I hope you can forgive me as it was an honest mistake. Also, thank you kindly for suggesting the conversation not take place on my talk page. You are correct, it doesn't really belong there and it was quite distracting...as you can see from my mistake! :-) · Tygrrr... 18:28, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm glad to see the autoblock is gone. It must have a delay or something... · Tygrrr... 19:11, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
