Protection of pages

People are deleting my band! Please help me out! AFD Jack Of All Trades Billy M

Yes;_; Billy M

Dear Sharon,

In principle, I agree with you regarding protecting pages. However, with that being said I saw JoshuaZ unreasonably removing scholarly cautions regarding evolutionary ideas concerning planet formation. I believe he did that because he is unreasonable. Perhaps now that he has a higher profile in regards to supressing creationist criticisms he will stop doing it. I am not very hopeful regarding this matter based on my experiences with him at Wikipedia, however, although I would be pleasantly surprised if he does cease and desist. I wrote Aschafly about reconsidering his reversal of banning and I will see what his response is. With that being said I will try to temper my protecting of certain pages unless I see continued supression of creationist material. Conservative 15:34, 1 March 2007 (EST)conservative

Dear Sharon,

Your message to User "ILOVEJESUS" does not seem to have taken. He chopped out a portion of my Debate Topic on Infinite regression; of course I put my content back using the History feature. I also did not appreciate his calling what he did a "minor edit." Must I set my preferences to advise me of all changes, major or minor?--TerryH 23:46, 7 March 2007 (EST)

Thanks Sharon

Thoughtful of you to help. --Horace 20:10, 8 March 2007 (EST)

Ketchup addition

What a great addition: ketchup! I really, really enjoyed that News of the Day, Sharon. Thank you!

I'm still laughing about that, Sharon. Your point about ketchup is hilarious!--Aschlafly 15:15, 9 March 2007 (EST)

Julius Caesar

I notice on that article that the large majority of the information was copied, by you, from a lecture on CP. While this isn't really breaking any rules, it's a bit strange. Do you think you could reword it so that it doens't look like it was copypasted from a lecture? GofG 17:13, 11 March 2007 (EDT)

What is a lecture on CP"? What is CP? It's OK to copy from lectures on this site.--Aschlafly 17:15, 11 March 2007 (EDT)

I think CP is the abbreviation for Conservapedia. I did copy that information from a World History Lecture. I will try to break it down into sections and reword parts of it to make it more usable. ~ SharonS 16:52, 12 March 2007 (EDT)

That's fine to copy material from other areas of Conservapedia, including lectures. Nothing wrong with that at all!

I guess we have a new abbreviation now: CP!--Aschlafly 16:58, 12 March 2007 (EDT)

Thanks, Blocking policy

Sharon, thanks so much for your terrific blocks and edits. Feel free to use longer blocks for clear problems. Most of my blocks are for infinite duration, because I don't want problems to be coming back on expirations of short blocks. But I defer to your judgment. Thanks!--Aschlafly 16:47, 12 March 2007 (EDT)

OK. I will be using infinite blocks for major vandalism from now on. ~ SharonS 16:52, 12 March 2007 (EDT)

Thank goodness you're on. We need another sysop here, I've spent all afternoon reverting anti-Christian contributions. MountainDew 18:05, 13 March 2007 (EDT)

I'd like to help if I can.

Please see my comment on User talk:Conservapedia Webmaster :-). --Ymmotrojam 21:30, 16 March 2007 (EDT)

Great new entries!

Sharon, great new entries! You've increased the new entries to 4,999! We'll pass 5,000 entries by noon Saturday. Congratulations!

Thank you! With the increased number of SYSOPs keeping vandalism under control, we have been gaining new articles rapidly over the past few days. ~ SharonS ^Talk! 11:11, 17 March 2007 (EDT)

If you would be so kind...

If you know how, I would love your help configuring my monobook.css (at User:Hojimachong/monobook.css) to make it look similar to the old layout. I'm just, way more familiar with the old layout, and think I will be more efficient while using it. Feel free to edit my monobook.css page, I'm pretty sure I made a really, really stupid mistake. Thanks! --Hojimachong^talk 13:30, 17 March 2007 (EDT)

Copying from wikipedia

Thought I'd pass this on to another sysop other than aschlafly for a change. The current article for Fox News Channel (Note, not the Fox News page) has LARGE elements lifted directly from wikipedia. I know that's a bad thing. Myk 18:24, 17 March 2007 (EDT)

If there is anything on that page, which I completely changed yesterday, and what I found was only like two paragraphs, it's because whatever is on Wikipedia was lifted from the sources I cited. I absolutely hate Wikipedia. --TK 08:23, 18 March 2007 (EDT)

Thank you so much for doing that rewrite! All of your contributions have been outstanding. ~ SharonS ^Talk! 08:26, 18 March 2007 (EDT)

Well, if they are that good, tell me how to add the little "talk" deal to my sig! :p --TK 08:30, 18 March 2007 (EDT)

IRC

Greetings, Hojimachong,

Cracker and User:Linus M. have set up an IRC channel for Conservapedia at, originally enough, #conservapedia. Apparently you can send systemwide messages, so we would like you to assist us in getting the word out. Thanks!

Hello:) Thank you, I'm doing what I can. I'm sorry that I spelled some words wrong, but english is not my native language (swedish is a much different language). I would like to have this site in a swedish version, just as wikipedia got:)

Please take a look....

At the "Abuse" page, last item, "Abuse of sysop priviledge". [[1]] I posted there that I would ask a few other Sysop's to look at what they are talking about. Please don't rush, and consider the edits, etc. Your decision if you want to post there, what you think, or wherever. THANKS! Oh, and you can thank me later for this good turn, lol. --~ TerryK ^Talk2Me! 08:19, 23 March 2007 (EDT)

CP:AID

If an article is nominated, it will remain on the following list for seven days. In this time, it must recieve eight (8) endorsements (signatures) from users interested in improving the article. If you wish to endorse an article, please sign your name using four tildes (~~~~) BELOW the signatures already present. If you wish to add a comment regarding the nomination, create a fourth-level heading (====Heading Goes Here====) BELOW the signatures already in place. The date listed next to the nomination heading is the date by which the article must receive eight (8) endorsements. Or, I can just do it for you. I am off for the afternoon though (school musical, haircut, etc.), so I'll look for your info when I get back. Good luck! --Hojimachong^talk 16:39, 24 March 2007 (EDT)

New account request

Hi, Sharon. My name is Ed, and I've been at Conservapedia.com for about 6 days. I was given sysop rights today. I have 5 years experience at Wikipedia, where I was the first elected bureaucrat.

May I request a new user account for Samantha? She has volunteered to correct the grammar in NCFCA. I could email her a password, or you and she could discuss a possible new account by email.

She has made helpful comments at the #conservapedia IRC channel.

Thanks. --Ed Poor 19:24, 25 March 2007 (EDT)

Did she email you yet? --Ed Poor 14:37, 28 March 2007 (EDT)

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to you, Sharon!

The eleven disciples went to the hill in Galilee where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him, Jesus drew near and said to them, "I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Go, then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples: baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And I will be with you always, to the end of the age." Matthew 28
Then Peter began to speak: “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts men from every nation who fear him and do what is right. You know the message God sent to the people of Israel, telling the good news of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all. You know what has happened throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached— how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him. “We are witnesses of everything he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a tree, but God raised him from the dead on the third day and caused him to be seen. He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses whom God had already chosen—by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one whom God appointed as judge of the living and the dead. All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.” —Acts 10:34-43 NIV

Proposed Block Policy

There has recently been some disagreement over blocks, so I have created a proposed block policy Tell me what you think. --CPAdmin1 23:23, 12 April 2007 (EDT)

• Errr, Sharon, you might want to ask Andy what he thinks of it.--~ TK ^MyTalk 07:50, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

The same message has been posted by CPAdmin1 on his talk page. ~ SharonS ^Talk! 08:33, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

Same as mine? -Confused-. The proposed policy contradicts the one Andy approved, Sharon. Check: http://www.conservapedia.com/Conservapedia:Administrators --~ TK ^MyTalk 08:36, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

That's why it's still a proposed policy. --BenjaminS 08:48, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

Yes, thanks Benjamin, for pointing that out. I just wanted to be sure Sharon had seen the other, is all. There is a possibility she didn't, busy as she is. --~ TK ^MyTalk 09:03, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

Sharon, Could you please explain what you have against my proposed policy. --CPAdmin1 09:31, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

I don't have anything against your policy. I have just decided it limits the power of the SYSOPs too much, and will allow liberals to take over our articles. ~ SharonS ^Talk! 20:41, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Could you tell me how it limits the power of sysops, and allows liberals to take over articles? --CPAdmin1 20:50, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

I have that question myself. I don't want to see anyone substitute a flight of fancy for the facts, any more than you do. I'd just like to know how you propose that we stop that sort of thing without seeming arbitrary or arrogant.--TerryH^Talk 18:54, 21 April 2007 (EDT)

Sysop Pledge

As my good deed of the day I am requesting that you place this template on your userpage. Participating sysops will earn my respect and gratitude. --BenjaminS 00:07, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

Sysop Pledge
As a Conservapedia Sysop, I will NEVER ARBITRARILY block anyone who is not in violation of the Conservapedia Commandments or related CP Guidelines.

Pledge

I have proudly posted a version of the "Pledge" on my user page, that I can acccept. It includes the Admin guidelines Andy approved, and does not ignore them. --~ TK ^MyTalk 07:32, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

request

I sent a letter of assistance regarding our abortion articles to right to life groups and I sent about 40 emails. Keep an eye on my user discussion page for people saying they are interested in being Admins/SYSOPS. Look at their edits and promote them to Admins if you think it is warranted. Here is my discussion page: http://www.conservapedia.com/User_talk:Conservative Conservative 22:24, 14 April 2007 (EDT)conservative You will need to unlock your user talk page for that to be effective. --CPAdmin1 22:29, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

... terms

Are the 'terms' pages that useful in light of proper categorization? One could just go to the category and see the terms there. Alternatively, if the 'terms' pages are to be useful, templates at the top to do the names would be much cleaner than the current cut and pasted block. There are also a large number of terms that are capital letters (Acid Ionization Reaction for example from Chemistry Terms A) which make it a proper noun and require either multiple redirects or pipe links to properly have it included in the text as acid ionization reaction. What is the best way to go about fixing these problems? --Mtur 19:57, 4 May 2007 (EDT)

Thanks for your ideas! I think I will make a template for the top of the pages now. As for terms with capital letters, I will try to correct them as I see them, and hope everyone will do the same. Eventually, that should resolve the problem. ~ SharonS ^Talk! 20:01, 4 May 2007 (EDT)

With a little bit of template magic, it would be possible to make one template that accommodates all terms pages with a variable. I am still confused as to the usefulness of the terms pages (and the master lists) given proper categorization of the terms in the pages one could just go to the category page instead which is automagicaly updated as new items are added. --Mtur 20:05, 4 May 2007 (EDT)

Hi Sharon

- - I came on to say ta for editing what I'd witten but not checked because I'm a lazy git, but PLEASE change the colours here: black on blue is really horrible...

I'm not sure which colors you are looking at. It was mint green on purple a moment ago, but I just changed it back to black on the normal light blue. It is still black and blue for you? Thanks, ~ SharonS ^Talk! 18:26, 7 May 2007 (EDT)

I'm not too good with colours, but the main page is legible. Mint green on purple sounds like the main page (what ARE you thinking?), and this page is back to normal :-) Unthank 18:30, 7 May 2007 (EDT)

OK, thanks. I've been fooling around with my user page over the past few days. Sorry for the terrible colors! I'll try to get them fixed soon. ~ SharonS ^Talk! 18:32, 7 May 2007 (EDT)
