== Locked roster ==
+

I've unlocked the roster of the Philadelphia Eagles, so you can update it if you wish.  If more rosters need unlocking, let me know.  [[User:Philip J. Rayment|Philip J. Rayment]] 04:25, 13 November 2008 (EST)
+
:Thanks.  There were a couple, and I'll let you know what they are once I've compiled a list.  Honestly, though, it seems pointless to have them, but someone took the time to compile them, so we might as well do good by them.  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 08:43, 13 November 2008 (EST)

::The others are [[Cleveland Browns/Roster]] and [[Indianapolis Colts/Roster]].  Thanks!  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 09:46, 13 November 2008 (EST)

==Vandalism==

Thanks, Wesley. I guess some people who cannot face the truth decide to attack the "annoying revealer". I suppose we might call this [[liberal intolerance]]. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 15:29, 19 November 2008 (EST)

Hey Wesley, thanks for the warm welcome and the useful links.Also, thanks for the advice about the signatures.I wasn't sure if I should put it on the article or not.--[[User:DevenG|DevenG]] 23:20, 27 November 2008 (EST)

I too add my thanks for your work on my articles. Looks good and it makes a difference. The catagories help in research.  I like music also. Have been playing saxophone for two years beginning at 68 years of age. Something I've wanted to do for a long time.[[User:BertSchlossberg|Bert Schlossberg]] 03:28, 29 November 2008 (EST)
+
:No problem.  Also, it is never too late to start playing music.  If I should make it so far, I'd like to earn a degree in music (of some form or another) after I retire.  Chances are I won't have time or funds for it now!  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 11:11, 29 November 2008 (EST)

Thanks for all the work on the categories.  There's [http://paperlined.org/cgi-bin/conservapedia/uncat_cats.cgi still some uncategorized categories] though, if you'd like to help out with those.  --[[User:Interiot|Interiot]] 13:32, 30 November 2008 (EST)

:I started to delve into those, but I was working a bit with the 'dead end pages', and quite a few of those cateories are locked from editing.  I'll just keep plugging away as time provides.  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 20:27, 30 November 2008 (EST)

:::Yeah, you got me there.  It's not that I'm stalking, it's just that I check the 'uncategorized pages' page quite often, and if there is a few pages, I'll jump in and throw a cat in it.  Leave it to me to miss a category on my own page!  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 20:21, 1 December 2008 (EST)

:OK, Thanks.  I'll keep my eye on the project page.  I've begun filing through the current list of categories and trying to make a logical flowchart of how things can be organized.  Upon completion I will run it past you before I make any changes.  I've begun taking on the Religion categories as well as the Science/Mathematics categories.  My thought is to make one supercategory (i.e. Religion) and branch it out into major subcategories (i.e. Religions, God, Creation, ID, People, Places, and Things), then further branch those out until we reach the most basic of categories.  If you have other plans for how this all should transpire, please let me know before I get too far in.  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 09:38, 3 December 2008 (EST)

Thanks for the cats, I have no idea how to do those, and it has to be said I do have a tendancy to forget them as well.--[[User:Ieuan|Ieuan]] 11:32, 4 December 2008 (EST)
+
:No problem.  [http://www.conservapedia.com/Help:How_to_create_a_category This] should help, but if there is already a category that you feel your article fits in better, use one of those.  Star Wars novels is a niche that should have a category of its own, because there is a Star Wars category and a Novels category, and this is right in between, thus creating its own category.  Any questions?  Let me know.  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 11:38, 4 December 2008 (EST)

== Naming convention - update ==
+
 
+
Hi - to put my mind at rest I checked up and Korean and Chinese names are also family name then given name. I think Korean names are "automatically" written that way - think Kim Il-sung and Kim Yong-il - Kim is the family name, but again I am not sure. --[[User:JessicaT|KotomiT]]<sup>[[User talk:JessicaT|''ohayougozaimasu'']]</sup> 06:55, 7 December 2008 (EST)

==Fanfare for the Common Man==
+
I have just done [[Fanfare]] and put it into "terms". Have you thought of a cat. for individual pieces ("Music:classical works", perhaps?)Fanfare for the Common Man would go in it; and I have just done a link to Holst's [[The Planets]] to join it. There are lots of pieces of classical music that may end up having their own slot. [[User:AlanE|AlanE]] 15:36, 16 December 2008 (EST)
+
:That is a good idea.  I had known that Fanfare was only a part of the whole, and is certainly the most recognizable piece.  At the time I had thought 'Songs' was the most appropriate category.  I will further subcategorize the 'songs' category, and create a new one for Fanfare and The Planets.  Thanks for catching that!  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 16:30, 16 December 2008 (EST)

::Well, congrats. All of the major sports rosters are finito. Now, I need to work on the actual pages of the soccer teams (Britain, to be specific). If you would like to help, that'd be great. All the info is on the [[Soccer teams in England]] page and the Premier League website. Thanks again and have a Merry Christmas! [[User:JY23|JY23]] 15:33, 24 December 2008 (EST)

:::Congrats to you as well.  I'm not at all well versed in anything soccer-related, so I'll leave it to you to do most of what needs done.  I'll try to contribute in some way.  Otherwise, I'll keep my eyes peeled for signings/trades in the major sports to keep the rosters current.  Merry Christmas to you as well!!  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 15:36, 24 December 2008 (EST)

==Fallout Series==

Glad to find a fellow fan! I've only been able to play the third game, though, as working copies of one and two are hard to find. But it seems that a certain someone isn't a fan of the Fallout series ;_; [[User:ETrundel|ETrundel]] 11:45, 30 December 2008 (EST)
+
:I admit, the game is pretty dirty at times, but I can separate fiction from reality.  I also haven't played 1 or 2, and I think I like 3 because I've been a fan of Bethesda games through the Elder Scrolls series.  As for the 'certain someone', I can understand his view as well because the game, as I stated, can be dirty, and doesn't fit well with the site agenda.  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 11:55, 30 December 2008 (EST)

== Categories ==
+
 
+
As per your request yesterday, I have had a look at the various categories and your suggestions and done the following:
+
*Category:Gonorrhea - deleted. I do not think we need that
+
*Category:Deceit - added to category:Sin
+
*Category:Articles for deletion - added to Category:Conservapedia Maintenance
+
*Category:Deletion candidates - added to Category:Articles for deletion
+
*Category:Maintenance added to Category:Conservapedia Maintenance
+
 
+
That leaves
+
*Category:Methods of integration
+
*Category:Classical Music
+
*Category:Society
+
 
+
these are all unlocked and as the first two are empty,maybe they can be deleted too, although I would have thought all the Beethoven et all entries should be added to Classical music? --[[User:JessicaT|KotomiT]]<sup>[[User talk:JessicaT|''ohayougozaimasu'']]</sup> 04:39, 4 January 2009 (EST)
+
 
+
:Wow, thanks for the thorough work!  As for [[:Category:Classical Music]], that was a category I started, but decided to reword the title as per conversations with [[User:AlanE]].  Beethoven and the like are in [[:Category:Composers]], so a deletion may be in order for Classical Music.  Thanks again!!  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 11:35, 4 January 2009 (EST)

:No biggie.  I think I got them all, but I'll doublecheck.  Thanks!  Also, with all of the work done on reformatting the debate pages, it seems they've lost their categories.  Can they go back into [[:Category:Conservapedia Debates]] or are there other plans for them?

:::I guess it doesn't.  There are about 40 in there now.  I have time (after lunch) to take care of it.  I wasn't sure if there was other plans for them, so I wanted to ask first.  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 12:23, 4 January 2009 (EST)

:::::I'm going to jump in here and point out that Pittsburgh '''does''' have Baltimore at home.  It's almost impossible to beat a team 3 times in one season, though I would prefer Baltimore over Tenessee.  Tennessee's offensive line is ''far'' superior to Baltimore's, plus their defense is able to get pressure only rushing 4 guys (not to mention the last time Pittsburgh played them they didn't have VanDenBosch (sp?) or Haynesworth).  I was personally rooting for Baltimore, but let's look toward San Diego first!  [[User:JLauttamus|Jeffrey W.

::::::You are right.  I'd rather have Baltimore than Tennessee, but I guess the Steeler fan in me just hates to see the Ravens do anything good.  It is never a foregone conclusion that we'll win, just remember 11-10 from earlier in the year.  But I have a good feeling!  I'll be rocking the Casey Hampton jersey tomorrow, it always brings me luck.  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 20:04, 10 January 2009 (EST)

:This is true.  I'll try to move as much as I can into subcategories, then make the major category "Politics" (which already exists).  "Politicians" wouldn't work as that would include simply the elected/appointed officials, but gives the air that we are categorizing people and not terms.  Suppose we put the people in 'Politics' and the terms, et al, in other categories?  I'll take an evening to come up with a plan, then I'll check back with you.  [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 22:27, 8 January 2009 (EST)

It occurred to me that what we really need, to create something lasting and be used as a reference, is a line or box diagram for Categories.  Are you any good at making such things?  If not, we need to find someone who is, and put up a page that is nothing but that, for future reference, where future editors can be linked to, so we keep things cohesive.  Am I making sense? --[[User:TK|'''₮K''']]<sub><small><small>/Admin</small></small></sub><sup>[[User_Talk:TK|/Talk]]</sup> 17:45, 13 January 2009 (EST)

No problem. However, I'm not sure how to fix that- I see some templates, such as [[Template:Bible Versions]] are under The Navbox category. So my question is, should we categorize templates or not? Maybe this is part of a bigger project. [[User:AddisonDM|AddisonDM]] 20:09, 14 January 2009 (EST)

I don't know. Maybe we (mostly I!) should just get rid of the Navbox category in the normal content pages, and then do something about categorizing templates.

Wes, when I get snarkey like that on a one or two liner it is generally in no way critical of the blokes who are doing the essential paperwork...doing the cats and links, and general wikification.

The original editor, whoever it was - I can't be bothered checking - or someone in the 500odd people who have accessed the page since it was created could have - should have - done something about it.

Hi, Wesley. You've done wonderful work on categories. They say every cat has nine lives, but you've given some of our cats much more than that! ;-)

Just enter the date of birth in year|month|day format in the template. For example, a person born on January 1st, 1970 would be {{age|1970|1|1}} years old. And someone born on March 22, 1984 would be {{age|1984|3|22}}.

Morning....

Would you please take a look and see if these are something we need? If not, let me know, and I will delete them. Thanks! [1] [2]

--₮K/Admin/Talk 07:23, 22 February 2009 (EST)

I'd say delete Category:Egyptian Deities and place the contents in Category:Egyptian Mythology, as there are some other pages in the Category:Mythology we can put in there as well. Essentially, almost anything that qualifies as Egyptian mythology will also be Egyptian deities. WesleySHello! 10:55, 22 February 2009 (EST)

Categegories

Hi Wesley, So when you have a main category and a subcategory, is it alright to use both? Example, I want to place Creation Care under the new category "Environmental Stewardship." Creation Care is already under environment. So should I just add the new category?? AddisonDM 21:02, 23 February 2009 (EST)

Why not? I don't know of any current policies against this. All it does is increase the exposure of the article. CPWebmasterTalk 21:10, 23 February 2009 (EST)
Great! Will do then. Thanks. AddisonDM 21:13, 23 February 2009 (EST)
The more categories (within reason!) the easier for people to search!  :-) --₮K/Admin/Talk 22:48, 23 February 2009 (EST)
I agree. In some of the larger categories (Politics, Science) it is probably best to subcategorize as much as possible without keeping the articles in the main category. Environment is, in itself, a subcategory of a larger one, Science, so placing Creation Care under both Environment and the new (sub)subcategory is fine in my book. WesleySHello! 09:11, 24 February 2009 (EST)

I moved Horatius Bonar from Cat: Sacred Music. I am trying to keep sacred music as a category for its types and forms, not for individual pieces of music, composers, hymn writers and the like. Perhaps there should be a Cat started for hymn writers...didn't I see Charles Wesley somewhere? BTW I just love "Categegories"AlanE 17:20, 24 February 2009 (EST)

Another word for the list, eh? Anyhow, your move was justified. I didn't see the other category. If we can round up enough pages for the Hymn Writers category, then by all means, go for it. WesleySHello! 17:23, 24 February 2009 (EST)
Please make sure "Sacred Music" is under the SuperCats "Religion" and "Music", okay? --₮K/Admin/Talk 17:45, 24 February 2009 (EST)
Sacred Music has been placed under "Musical Genres" and "Religious Songs". WesleySHello! 22:08, 24 February 2009 (EST)

Nutter

Do we have a "nutter" category, like for the criminally insane of terminally moronic crazies, like Phelps? Seems unfair (although fun to see them froth at the mouth whenever I re-add that category to him) to liberals to actually, really saddle them with the likes of him.... --₮K/Admin/Talk 21:19, 26 February 2009 (EST)

I'm pretty sure we don't, but I'm sure there are other articles deserving of such a title elsewhere within the site. Anyone come to mind? If so, let me know and I'll throw something together. Phelp's talk page has filled out quite nicely lately, hasn't it? Lots of debating. WesleySHello! 21:26, 26 February 2009 (EST)

Busy day, eh?

Lot of signings, I gather. Denver got Brian Dawkins :), best of luck with your signings. JY23 17:32, 28 February 2009 (EST)

Yes, very busy. Also very surprising that Philadelphia gave up 3 of their top DBs (Dawkins, Sheppard, Considine). The Steelers generally aren't very active in the free agent market, at least for big names. WesleySHello! 00:40, 1 March 2009 (EST)

De-Orphaned

Is it really appropriate to "de-orphan" a talk page to the article in its own talk page? --₮K/Admin/Talk 17:21, 1 March 2009 (EST)

Probably not. I was just trying to see if it worked. I'll undo it. WesleySHello! 17:57, 1 March 2009 (EST)

Vandalism

Could you block that Badger fellow? He made this interesting edit. ETrundel 14:57, 4 March 2009 (EST) Thanks, that textbook is close to my heart. I'd like to say 'muy gracias' to sound cool, but I don't know how. Alas. ETrundel 15:02, 4 March 2009 (EST)

No problem. I'm actually rather unfamiliar with that particular text, but I'm sure it isn't some Communist propaganda. WesleySHello! 15:06, 4 March 2009 (EST)
It's my textbook. Safe to say I've seen no hammer and sickle yet, but maybe they've hidden the communist message very carefully. They do have a section on Mendeleyev though, so I'll be extra vigilant. ETrundel 15:35, 4 March 2009 (EST)

Thanks!

For catching that return vandal, Wes. I added an email block on that "psy-troll" sock of a sock RonSt. I think the average age/maturity of that vandal site is down to 12! --₮K/Admin/Talk 18:28, 9 March 2009 (EDT)

Sure seems like it. The name looked too similar to yesterday's idiocy to be anyone else. WesleySHello! 18:34, 9 March 2009 (EDT)

Rocky Bleier

Rocky Bleier is a big hero of mine also. I've thought of doing an entry about him, and even having him speak at an event. Thanks for taking more initiative than I did.--Andy Schlafly 19:59, 9 March 2009 (EDT)

Thanks, Mr. Schlafly. I've had the opportunity to meet him once (easy because he and I live in Pittsburgh) and he truly is an inspirational person. Feel free to add to the page if you wish. WesleySHello! 20:01, 9 March 2009 (EDT)
I may follow up and ask him to speak at an event in that area sometime.--Andy Schlafly 20:34, 13 March 2009 (EDT)

Thanks

Thanks for your superb work in connection with the blocks and unblocks this morning! Godspeed.--Andy Schlafly 20:34, 13 March 2009 (EDT)

Absolutely. I'm glad it happened when I was near my desk at work. WesleySHello! 20:41, 13 March 2009 (EDT)

Unblock

Thank you partners! --Joaquín Martínez 00:59, 14 March 2009 (EDT)

Template unlocked

Done. Please notify me when you're done so I can lock it again. AddisonDM 17:32, 14 March 2009 (EDT) OK, it is done. Thanks! WesleySHello! 17:59, 14 March 2009 (EDT)

Miami done too. Sorry so long, busy tonight. AddisonDM 23:28, 14 March 2009 (EDT)

{{age}} template

Hi, Wesley. You've done wonderful work on categories. They say every cat has nine lives, but you've given some of our cats much more than that! ;-)

I've recently incorporated Template:Age into some of those infoboxes that we use in certain biographical articles. Would you like to team up with me and set some of these up?

Just enter the date of birth in year|month|day format in the template. For example, a person born on January 1st, 1970 would be 54 years old. And someone born on March 22, 1984 would be 40.

There is a slot in a lot of the infobox templates for the age. Add it like this:

age={{age|1977|8|1}} (Shows up as Age 46)

Clear? --Ed Poor Talk 15:56, 21 March 2009 (EDT)


Thanks, and I am willing to help. It could also work in the main areas of articles, for those lacking infoboxes. And I assume that this is for living people only? WesleySHello! 16:17, 21 March 2009 (EDT)
ROTFL!!!! Yes :-) The age template is only for living people. Otherwise Mozart would be how old now? <grin> --Ed Poor Talk 16:21, 21 March 2009 (EDT)
