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. 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. WesleyS^Hello! 08:43, 13 November 2008 (EST)

The others are Cleveland Browns/Roster and Indianapolis Colts/Roster. Thanks! WesleyS^Hello! 09:46, 13 November 2008 (EST)

The first of those two is not locked, and the second I've now unlocked. Happy editing. Philip J. Rayment 20:30, 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. --Ed Poor ^Talk 15:29, 19 November 2008 (EST)

No problem. As active as you are within the site, I suppose you inevitably become a victim of the senselessness of others. WesleyS^Hello! 15:32, 19 November 2008 (EST)

thanks

Thanks for adding the categories. Very useful! RJJensen 15:57, 19 November 2008 (EST)

Just trying to do my part. To think I'm still in the A's of the uncategorized list of article. There is a world of work ahead... WesleyS^Hello! 15:59, 19 November 2008 (EST)

Cats

Were you planning on the (cat (literally)), and if so, for how long? (Terrible pun, wish I'd thought of it, bravo.) JANorton 18:16, 22 November 2008 (EST)

Well, I've been adding categories for so long I just got bored...Glad someone caught it. WesleyS^Hello! 18:19, 22 November 2008 (EST)

Thanks

Wesley thanks for your advise. I replied to your letter here coz I don't know how to reply directly to you.

Thanks,man

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.--DevenG 23:20, 27 November 2008 (EST)

Not a problem. Just trying to help. WesleyS^Hello! 11:11, 29 November 2008 (EST)

Ditto

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.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! WesleyS^Hello! 11:11, 29 November 2008 (EST)

Cats

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.--Ieuan 11:32, 4 December 2008 (EST)

No problem. 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. WesleyS^Hello! 11:38, 4 December 2008 (EST)

Thanks :-)--Ieuan 13:20, 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. --KotomiT^{ohayougozaimasu} 06:55, 7 December 2008 (EST)

That's what I thought. I had taken a course in Eastern culture in college, and I know it had covered this topic, but that seems like forever ago. Thanks for the update! WesleyS^Hello! 11:04, 7 December 2008 (EST)

Reverting vandalism

Great effort reverting the vandalism tonight!--Aschlafly 21:46, 10 December 2008 (EST)

Thank you, Mr. Schlafly. Just doing my part. WesleyS^Hello! 22:12, 10 December 2008 (EST)

Cat commentary

Just so you know, I'm keeping a rough outline of what I'm doing on the categories at Conservapedia:Category project.--CPalmer 07:30, 13 December 2008 (EST)

Thanks

Thanks for adding the cat tag on my MGS article.--Vmember 22:05, 14 December 2008 (EST)

No problem. WesleyS^Hello! 22:11, 14 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. 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! WesleyS^Hello! 16:30, 16 December 2008 (EST)

Thanks

For your help on all the rosters. JY23 17:13, 19 December 2008 (EST)

No problem. Even Bronco fans and Steeler fans can work together! :) WesleyS^Hello! 19:47, 19 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! 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!! WesleyS^Hello! 15:36, 24 December 2008 (EST)

OK, that's fine. I've got a few teams to start articles on, and BrianCo & ETrundel tend to have the best soccer info. That's probably a good plan, I belive some of the trade deadlines are coming up. JY23 15:37, 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 ;_; 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. WesleyS^Hello! 11:55, 30 December 2008 (EST)

Happy New Year!

From JY23 21:11, 31 December 2008 (EST)

Thanks! Same to you! WesleyS^Hello! 21:24, 31 December 2008 (EST)

Indeed! Happy New Year, Wes! --₮K^/Talk! 23:57, 31 December 2008 (EST)

Thank you!

for catching jeejee. I confess I missed his edit, but he is gone now. --KotomiT^{ohayougozaimasu} 09:53, 3 January 2009 (EST)

No problem! I always look at the edits by the "red names". You are liable to find something strange! WesleyS^Hello! 09:57, 3 January 2009 (EST)

Thanks

for reverting that vandal. You got them before I did. I shall delete classical music then. --KotomiT^{ohayougozaimasu} 12:07, 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? WesleyS^Hello! 12:08, 4 January 2009 (EST)

Oh no! How many are there? I suppose they should go there. Does the 'debate' template not automatically assign the category though? --KotomiT^{ohayougozaimasu} 12:20, 4 January 2009 (EST)

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. WesleyS^Hello! 12:23, 4 January 2009 (EST)

You have my eternal gratitude! --KotomiT^{ohayougozaimasu} 12:26, 4 January 2009 (EST)

Award

I am declaring you an honourary WikiGnome for all your efforts. --KotomiT^{ohayougozaimasu} 12:42, 4 January 2009 (EST)

Aw, thanks. I'm honored! WesleyS^Hello! 13:58, 4 January 2009 (EST)

Favour

May I ask you one more favour, please. Everytime I try and load the diffs for that vandal PaulKr I keep timing out. Please can you try and revert those that have not yet been done? Thank you! --KotomiT^{ohayougozaimasu} 17:01, 4 January 2009 (EST)

Do not worry - figured out a way and the others took care of it. --KotomiT^{ohayougozaimasu} 17:14, 4 January 2009 (EST)

Sorry I couldn't assist. Everytime and every method I tried it timed out on me as well, then I couldn't get back on the site for 20 minutes. Glad it is taken care of, though. WesleyS^Hello! 17:25, 4 January 2009 (EST)

Category tags

Aw, what did you do that for? Now, it can't have kittens! ;-) --Ed Poor ^Talk 09:38, 7 January 2009 (EST)

Well, like Bob Barker said at the end of every The Price Is Right telecast: "To help control the pet population, have your pets spayed or neutered." Gotta love unintentional humor! WesleyS^Hello! 09:49, 7 January 2009 (EST)

Merry (belated) Christmas

I finished the actual template for the Steelers roster, just for you! (OK, so the actual improvement of the site was also a good reason, lol) JY23 18:20, 7 January 2009 (EST)

Hey, thanks! I hope we can avenge them lousy Chargers for you this weekend. WesleyS^Hello! 18:56, 7 January 2009 (EST)

I hope so, too. I still think that the Titans will win the conference, though. JY23 18:27, 8 January 2009 (EST)

Lord of the Rings category

You may want to revise your new category, as there is already one covering Middle-earth. Karajou 17:19, 8 January 2009 (EST)

Thanks, Karajou. I was cleaning up the Special:WantedCategories page and didn't notice there was another LOTR category. It can be deleted now, as the page in the unnecessary category has been recategorized. WesleyS^Hello! 17:24, 8 January 2009 (EST)

Category - Political People

As I stated before, "Political People" is really rinky-dink, and non descriptive. Would you check [here] and let me know what you think about the suggestions there? Thanks! --₮K_/Admin^/Talk 19:21, 8 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. WesleyS^Hello! 22:27, 8 January 2009 (EST)

How about Category:Biographies by Politics? The contents of Category:Political People can be moved there, and of course there will be more subcategorization to be done. I'll wait for approval. WesleyS^Hello! 22:32, 8 January 2009 (EST)

I think I can ask nicely (perhaps) and get Ed Bot to do the heavy lifting. How would Statesmen work? We already have elected officials, for the U.S. and U.K, I think. --₮K_/Admin^/Talk 23:45, 8 January 2009 (EST)

Statesmen sounds great. I've already separated the international political people from the U.S. political people, so how about United States Statesmen and International Statesmen, with Statesmen as the top level category, just under Politics? Then we can separate into subcategories thusly. WesleyS^Hello! 07:42, 9 January 2009 (EST) - On second thought, what of the people who aren't statesmen but are involved in politics (lobbyists, activists, etc.)? They surely couldn't be placed in the Statesmen category. Any thoughts for a category name for these types? WesleyS^Hello! 15:02, 9 January 2009 (EST)

How about Statesmen as the top, under it officials, elected officials, and political figures?--₮K_/Admin^/Talk 19:53, 9 January 2009 (EST)
