You wouldn't happen the be the Canada Girl from the Rotten Forums, would you?

You know, the one who hangs around Mikeisgreen and Caichobella. The reason why is because Daily Rotten is all fucky and if you know anything about what happened.Byelobog 02:27, 12 February 2006 (UTC) P.S. If you are not, then I apologize with the full sincerity of my vocabulary.Byelobog 02:27, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Okay

You were the one who left that message on my Talk Page, were you? You didn't sign it. Assuming you did, you do have a point. We have two lists of Digimon as it is. So I'll remove them and put them in the Level categories instead. Speaking of which, what category are the Digimon that are above Mega, like Omnimon or MaloMyotismon, going to go in?

N. Harmonik

A good place? Um, what exactly are you talking about? And how do I sign up for this Digimon Systems Update? I know a website with lots of pictures of Digimon cards and info. N. Harmonik 23:41, August 21, 2005

Hangman Game 14

Sure you can host 14, but first read this. Also if you want to talk to me please use my talk page. -Hoekenheef 01:38, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

Canadian wikipedians' notice board

I would like to invite you to review the Wikipedia:Canadian wikipedians' notice board and sign the Wikipedia:Canadian wikipedians' notice board/members. The notice board provides users with resources to edit articles as well as a forum to comments on Canadian subjects and to improve Canadian articles. --maclean25 01:38, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

Hangman game 14

I have taken a second guess, as you said I could. (I didn't want to add to the list of guesses, as it would seem redundant.) Blueyoshi321 23:59, 10 September 2005 (UTC)

Doug Swingley

Hey, there, CanadaGirl! (I have visions of a woman in a cape and tights with a giant maple leaf emblazoned on the shirt--I've been watching too many comic book movies lately....) Re questions for Swingley: I'd recommend going through old Mushing magazine issues--they've done a few interviews with him, and those and other racer interviews might point you in a good direction. I used to be the editor at the magazine, and the things people seemed to be interested in were: racing techniques, tactics, and equipment; dog care, breeding, and training for races; memorable anecdotes and tricky situations that the racers had to deal with on the trail. As to questions specific to Swingley, I'm not that familiar with him. His website is pretty skimpy at the moment. He's been in the Iditarod and other long-distance races, which of course is a whole different ball game than the sprint races. There's plenty on the web about him, though. Good luck!

Dog

I'm gonna guess that that dog is some type of Husky, but i might be totally wrong.--Quadraxis (also from Canada!)

Stuffed Dog

Your stuffed dog looks like a Siberian Husky. The coloration of the dogs pictured in the article is different, but see here for example. Its name can be either Herman or Vladislav. Taco Deposit | Talk-o to Taco 18:30, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

I think that "Bob" would be an excellent name for that dog. But that's just me. ;) Matt Yeager 07:46, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Hangman

Alright, I've got a puzzle. I'll do 17 when it comes up, alright? Matt Yeager 05:28, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Digi-stub

Just left a request for input on what to do with {{Digi-stub}} on Wikipedia:WikiProject Digimon Systems Update. Caerwine 18:21, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

Opinion on merging two articles

I found two articles with similar information, Digimon: Digital Monsters (anime) and Digital World. Digital World would be merged into Digimon: Digital Monsters (anime). Please direct replies to my talk page. Link, Hero of Wind 03:10, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley

I checked The_Adventures_of_Mary-Kate_&_Ashley:_The_Case_of_the_Christmas_Caper as you requested. The text is in Turkish, written presumably by a child expressing good feelings towards the Olsen twins. The text contains no relevant information and is safe to discard.

About Hangman

Hey, it's your friendly WB. Anyway, you seem interested in Wikipedia:Hangman. So make sure you check out Wikipedia:Hangman/application to apply to host the next round of Hangman. Thanks. (I'm spamming this to people who participated in round 19) -- WB 00:02, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I'm quite interested in Wikipedia:Hangman because I am mostly in charge of it at this point. Martinman11/Hoekenheef was in charge before me, but he hasn't been around for a while. He left a message for the 3 people (including me) who have hosted games, saying that we could run the games until he returned. As there was no response from the other 2, I have taken charge of Wikipedia:Hangman.

I realize you've been very helpful in adding templates and other useful ideas for the hangman games, including the applications for hosting rounds, but I do not like the exact method you've suggested for deciding who hosts the next round. For a while at least, I would feel more comfortable in only having "guest hosts" every 2 games, and I would also like to be able to choose between applicants rather than simply choose the one with less games hosted (though I may use that criteria if the applicants are otherwise equally qualified).

CanadaGirl 00:15, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply. I understand that you do not like the methods I have taken for the application process. I just thought it would be nice since everyone knows they can host a game (equal opportunities?) just like everyone can edit Wikipedia. Although Wikipedia is not really democratic, I don't see anything bad with anyone being able to apply. Anyway, do you mind if I host round 20? -- WB 00:45, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

I would rather do game 20 (and 22) myself, but you can do game 21. As for game 23, let's see if anyone new would like to host that one. CanadaGirl 03:49, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Then I'll take 21. -- WB 03:56, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Can I take 24? -- WB 06:09, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Fetofs has also asked to host game 24, and since he has not hosted a game yet, he should be given the opportunity. CanadaGirl 21:24, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Then I'll take whatever is available. I assume that is the 25^th game. -- WB 06:26, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

WP:MIND

Hello. Round four of Wikipedia Mind Benders will open on Thursday, December 1. This round will be drastically different from round three; part one will consist of a creative project, and part two will be developed from there. The full details will be released when the round opens. Time and speed should not be major factors in this round; thus, there is no exact opening time for the round as speed will not factor into the scoring. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 00:04, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

P.S. Please add Wikipedia:Mind Benders/to do to your watchlist to receive further announcements; the NotificationBot is currently down and all notifications will be placed on that page. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Note: This message has been sent by Flcelloguy. If you do not wish to receive further messages regarding WP:MIND, please contact Flcelloguy. Special thanks to Fetofs for helping distribute this message.

Brutus Sanchez'es images

Hi, you "saved" Image:Koromon.jpg, Image:Andromon.jpg, Image:Angewomon.jpg and Image:Angemon.jpg from CSD with your "janitor" acount earlier today. These where part of a set re-uploaded by a sockpupet of a banner user to replace images that where deleted because he only used them on his userpage and they had no source, so his other uploads have been deleted. However in case you had any plans for the images you tagged I listed them on WP:IFD rather than deleting them outright. Just so you know, if you have any plans for them just pop over there and vote keep, I have nothing against the images themselves other than the fact that they are not actualy used. --Sherool (talk) 20:15, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

cfd's

All the cfd's I did were on Special:Uncategorizedcategories . Every category should belong to some other category, somehow. Many categories were simply empty, and in some cases, were poorly named, or had typos in the name and amount to junk. I did not cfd anything that had any members or subcategories.

Special:Uncategorizedcategories was about 700 long last week, is about 200 long now and, with regular maintenance, will be very short (ideally zero) soon. I am open to the recreation of any of them as long as they belong to some other category, even if they have no members. Ideally, a domain expert or a taxonomist would be creating empty categories. We all hope the taxonomy to be natural, but it should also be populated. By that I mean, there is not much point to creating a large array of cateroies that are destine to remain empty for a long time (such as Olympic Haitian Bobsleders, or something like that).

I have done hundreds of cfd's now. Most of them are just junk, but I could have made a few mistakes. Plesae just recreate any needed ones and ensure that they have a parent. If you spend more than two minutes thinking and researching individual ones, you will probably have a better understanding of them than me, but I did attempt to identify most where an existing category already exists.

Wikipedia:WikiProject Digimon Systems Update

If you are still interested, I have started a discussion as to how to deal with the {{digimon}} template. Circeus 04:08, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

I have startd to work on this at User:Circeus/Digimon. Circeus 21:08, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Wow, that's really nice of you to point that out to me. Thanks! Matt Yeager 23:09, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiProject Digimon Systems Update, again

I'm trying to get some stuff done over at the digimon wikiproject, and have reorganized the project page. I also added a To-do list. In hoping we can collaborate. Circeus 17:09, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Wikimedia Canada

Hi there! I'd like to invite you to explore Wikimedia Canada, and create a list of people interested in forming a local chapter for our nation. A local chapter will help promote and improve the organization, within our great nation. We'd also like to encourage everyone to suggest projects for our national chapter to participate in. Hope to see you there!--DarkEvil 15:21, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Category:Palaeontology

Thanks for correcting my redirect. I had a feeling that there was a special template, but couldn't think what it was. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 22:28, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Hangman Game 28

Would you mind if I hosted the next game? I have a really good one I'd like to try. — Ian Manka Talk to me! 03:13, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Empty categories for redirect

User:Wikiwikiwikiwikiwiki asked me this question, but I'm not sure, so I forward it to you since your bot asked for the redirect. Dr Debug (Talk) 18:34, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Dr Debug -- Thanks for the welcome. BTW -- I fixed all the incorrect links to Category:Carnege_Mellon_alumni. Should that category now be deleted? I didn't see how to do it. (You can go right ahead and do it if you like.) Wikiwikiwikiwikiwiki 18:23, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing and moving all the entry. Well normally you can delete a category at Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion, but I'm not sure what to do in this case, because I don't know in case of those Category redirects. I'll ask Canadagirl because she marked it for redirect so let her take care of it. Dr Debug (Talk) 18:31, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

So what should we do. Is it an automatic process, or should it be marked at CfD or should it be speedied? Dr Debug (Talk) 18:34, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Category:Wikipedians_by_alma_mater:Catholic_education:Christian_Brother

Well? Have you reconsidered your use of a speedy template yet?--64.12.116.195 20:15, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Seventh-day Adventist Church Page

Hi!

I noticed that you have an interest in the Seventh-day Adventist Church. At the moment there is a debate raging on Talk:Seventh-day Adventist Church that has resulted in the main page being protected. The debate has to do with the theology of Graham Maxwell. I would really appreciate if you could drop by and comment on this issue.

By the way, you might want to sign up at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Seventh-day_Adventist_Church to help us make better pages to do with the Adventist Church.

Thanking you in advance, -Fermion 06:28, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiHangman Tournament

I am attempting to revitalize the WikiHangman Tournament. Seeing as the page has been around since last year, I have decided to contact all interested users ("interested" being defined as one who had added their name to the signup list) and see if they are still interested.

Which is why I am contacting you today. If you are still interested in the tournament, please bold your name in the signup list. And if you aren't, no big deal, just remove your name from the list. Thank you for your time, and I hope to see you there! — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 20:02, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

The WikiHangman Tournament has started!

Hello! This is a reminder that you have signed up for the Wikipedia:WikiHangman Tournament. Matches have started, and you must move* within the next 24 hours in order to not have your match being forefeitted. Your games are found here.
