Sub-pages of your userspace are made with a "/", not a "\". Right now you're technically intruding into other userspaces. It's not urgent, but maybe ask a sysop to move the pages in question to the proper space next time you talk to one. --[[User:Sid 3050|Sid 3050]] 15:08, 10 April 2007 (EDT)

Hey, if you're ever creating a template, to add it to the template category, add: <nowiki><noinclude>[[Category:Template]]</noinclude></nowiki>. To set templates to automatically add whatever page they're used on to a category put in: <nowiki><includeonly>[[Category:whatever]]</includeonly></nowiki>. Enjoy!

I restored the page.  There was no copyright violation, as the article tells what the book is about.  If you do use actual quotations from the book, dont forget the (Goldberg, pg. 50) at the end of the line in question.  If you need a second opinion as well, Aschafly will also be glad to chip in.  [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 18:02, 15 May 2007 (EDT)

:I don't agree that there was no copyright violation because "the article tells what the book is about", but probably there was no violation since it was only a limited portion that was quoted for legitimate reasons.  Er, except that I'm not sure what those reasons are.  Is this meant to be an article about a book, or what?  If it is, I think it's more appropriate to actually describe the book in your own words than to have virtually all of the article being the publisher's description.  So copyright may not be the issue, but I think it would be better if it was not mostly a quote.  [[User:Philip J.

:P.S.  And Conservapedia's desire to not have articles about every little thing makes me wonder if there is justification for articles about books at all (with a few obvious exceptions).  [[User:Philip J. Rayment|Philip J. Rayment]] 11:03, 16 May 2007 (EDT)

Hey, just wanted to touch base with you and let you know what I was doing.  I've been categorizing most of your enteries into the Geology category.  I also put the Mineral category you created as a subcategory of Geology.  I think if we want to come up with any further categories to lump some of these terms in, we should keep placing them as subcategories under Geology.  Chances are you will have a much better idea as to how you would want them categorized than I will, I'm just doing some grunt work. :) --[[User:Colest|Colest]] 09:48, 25 May 2007 (EDT)

::Thanks.  Actually, this has highlighted a problem with the "optional" bit.  Typing <nowiki>{{mineral}}</nowiki> (i.e. not supplying any parameters) is not going to work.  In that sense, the parameters are not optional at all.  There are three cases: (1) can be omitted, (2) can be blank, and (3) must be provided.  The Name parameter of {{tl|mineral}} is hardly optional; it must be provided.  The rest can be blank, but cannot be omitted.  I'll have to think about how to best document this, so don't worry about it for now.  By the way, the "cat" field was for the category (if any) that the template applies to pages it is put on, which in this case is "mineral", not "template".  Anyway, I've fixed that for you.

::How many uses of this template have pictures?  The template should be altered to just require the image name, not the entire <nowiki>[[image:name.jpg]]</nowiki> code, but changing it now will break any that are already used.

== Vandal Question ==

−
I'm new here, and have a question.  If I see a user vandalizing the place, what's the proper procedure, particularly if the vandalism is ongoing?  Should I assume one of the sysops will catch it, or do I contact one of them (and if so, what is the best means when time is of the essence)?  (And let me note that "JohnV" seems to be a vandal, and "MikeHunt", while he hasn't done anything yet, has an obviously inappropriate name which stopped being funny in junior high...).--[[User:PeteVan|Pete]] 11:43, 8 June 2007 (EDT)

:Pete, at the bottom of the Main Page is a section titled '''Report vandalism or abuse'''. Click [[Conservapedia:Abuse]]. This is where you can report abuse of editing privileges.

I'm curious - why did you come after me so hard and fast?  I mean no harm, and you were very aggressive - it seemed I had barely joined and you were trying to ban me?    Yes, I had made a few comments, which I thought were very fair and balanced, but your aggresive repsonse does not befit this site    [[User:DoggedPersistence|DoggedPersistence]] 18:47, 11 June 2007 (EDT)

"Seem like" - you might do well to consider your own words.    You are guilty of being very judgemental.  See [[Limerick]] for a constructive entry, which I hadn't had a chance to post before you slurred me.  As to my other entries, I think they were perfectly constructive, and I have yet to see a reason why [[New Ordeal]] should be considered a valid entry - it's clearly just the author's own catchphrase.  [[User:DoggedPersistence|DoggedPersistence]] 19:10, 11 June 2007 (EDT)
