I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. Here are a few suggestions you might find useful:

• First, check out the tutorial and learn how to write a great article
• Find out more about what Misplaced Pages is and how it works
• Check out the manual of style and maybe the picture tutorial if you're interested in adding images to your articles
• Write from a neutral point of view, use wikiquette, and last but not least, be bold!
• Check out the community portal if you're looking for something to do.
• Finally, feel free to contact me at my talk page if you have any questions! Remember to sign your name by typing ~~~~.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame) 01:41, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Eric Bana

Thanks for your addition to Eric Bana. To follow Misplaced Pages's verifiability policy, however, could you mention where this information comes from? Thanks! --Spangineer (háblame) 01:41, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

I added the sourcing from imdb.com to the article. Sorry, I forgot to add the reference when I originally added the information. Themoodyblue (talk) 07:59, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Adoption offer

I understand that you are enthusiastic to contribute to the encyclopedia and I wish to offer the proposal of adoption (See WP:ADOPT for more info), wherby I will have the opportunity to mentor you along the way, as you learn about wikipedia, its policies and its guidelines. This is of course purely optional and you have no obligation to accept. --Flewis 08:43, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Also, If you have been experiencing harassment or wikistalking from other editors, you should certainly let someone know, so that those cuasing you 'stress' will be dealt with in an appropriate manner. --Flewis 08:43, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

This user has been offered adoption by Flewis. (If you wish adoption by another user click here)

Proposed deletion of Jennet Conant

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Jennet Conant, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

If having 3 New York Times bestsellers is not notable enough for inclusion on Misplaced Pages, I would REALLY like to know what is. Conant is a noted, published, best selling author. Please knock off the speedy deletion stuff - or redefine what is considered "notable". Themoodyblue (talk) 18:48, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Ahhm please source the article to back up whats in the article the only source is her own website which is not good enough you need indy sources to back up the article to make it more clear of its notability and also please read wp:bio about the sources thanks if you added them the article will be fineOo7565 (talk) 18:56, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

I added a number of references to the article. Themoodyblue (talk) 18:36, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Autoconfirmation

Hmm, interesting. So you aren't able to move pages or edit semiprotected pages? According to WP:UAL#Autoconfirmed_users, autoconfirmation is done automatically by the software, so I really don't know why you wouldn't be able to do those things. Perhaps leaving a note at WT:UAL asking about it would be a good next step if it's still not working. --Spangineer (háblame) 21:15, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Hortatory

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Hortatory, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Duplicates a Wiktionary article with no asserion of usefulness in Misplaced Pages.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy).

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.  Blanchardb -- timed 22:58, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

A Hortatory is an essential part of language and speech - ANY language and speech. If you delete the Hortatory, why not delete "verb" and "noun" as equally useless. Deleting this would be like deleting Greek from the Bible because people don't understand it or use it very often. It is still essential! ....Themoodyblue (talk) 02:49, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

My church

I was a member of the Evangelical Free Church of Canada until my congregation was forced to shut down last year due to declining attendance and other factors. Now I have joined the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada, in a congregation whose building my EFCC congregation was renting in its last two years of existence. Although I do not consider myself a Pentecostal, I also believe maintaining established relationships is more important than fighting over an unclear interpretation of doctrine. -- Blanchardb -- timed 23:43, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

I am recognizing you for being one of the many people who came together to improve Saxbe fix as part of its development which has resulted in its WP:FA and WP:TFA status.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 16:49, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Khama-ian.jpg

It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Brambo (talk) 20:42, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. The problem is that the image currently has no source indication; if you could add it to the page, it would greatly help determine its license. Thanks! Brambo (talk) 09:10, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

October 2009

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like to remind you not to attack other editors, as you did on Talk:Luis Fortuño. Please comment on the contributions and not the contributors. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Jmundo (talk) 05:17, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

He commented on me, and I did likewise. I realize that not everyone is equal on this site, but vandalizing people's articles, then blaming a "lack of consensus" because he is so narrow minded that he thinks any thing he disagrees with will never had a consensus and thus must be removed, is also completely unacceptable. Or is simply imposing one's opinion acceptable so long as he phrases his reasons correctly? The information he posted was factually inaccurate, he started by attacking me and then changing it afterward, and he vandalized my contributions with no discussion or consensus from anyone what so ever. Is there one standard for everyone, or is there a double standard for those who are perceived to be "wiki cool" and another for the rest of us? Please enlighten me.

Tim Kaine

Please stop removing material from Tim Kaine. Signatures are not subject to trademark, and any claims to the contrary are false. Furthermore, the assertion that a picture of a person's signature poses some form of "security risk" is absurd. Finally, take a look at articles for any other politician; Barack Obama, Joe Biden, George W. Bush, etc. Notice what they all have in common? faithless () 07:49, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Please stop adding material that should not be there. It is illegal to post actual (rather than pseudo) signature templates and until it can be determined that the signature being displayed is not the actual one that Gov. Kaine uses, it must be deleted according to the law of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Themoodyblue (talk) 00:55, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Edit war on Tim Kaine

Hi. You appear to be one of several editors involved in an edit war at Tim Kaine. From reviewing the edits and edit summaries the dispute appears to relate to the inclusion of a signature of a United States Govenor. The facts of the case as I see them are:

• User:Themoodyblue wishes to remove the signature on the grounds that the subject has objected and inclusion is allegedly against local law.
• User:Faithlessthewonderboy and User:Warrior4321 wish to restore the signature on the grounds that the legal objections have not been properly explained and that Misplaced Pages should not be censored.

I am not sufficiently qualified to make a judgement either way, but I urge both sides to resolve the dispute through discussion on talk pages. As the subject has objected to inclusion of information you may wish to ask for advice at the BLP noticeboard to determine if that alone is sufficient grounds for excluding a signature (if advice has already been provided on this matter then please make the other parties aware). If you are still unable to reach agreement after seeking third-party advice then I would urge you to consider formal or informal dispute resolution.
Finally, I should warn you that further edit warring may result in a temporary block of editing privileges for one or more parties. Please see WP:3RR for more information. Regards. Road Wizard (talk) 21:26, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
