Well, not really, it's just your talk page wouldn't really look like a talk page without at least one heading/thread/post, and might confuse some new users or something, Lord Spongefrog, (I am the Czar of all Russias!) 16:47, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks but you could've added something from WP:* :) (STAlking)--NotedGrant Talk 10:06, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the Barnstar. I'm working a rare Saturday and I'm the only guy in the building at present. Slow day. :) Really, thank you for the honor. PMDrive1061 (talk) 18:02, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
- It's an honor having you on my talk page (Now I have to give a barnstar for being the fastest person ever to respond:D)Have a nice day Admin --NotedGrant Talk 18:06, 3 October 2009 (UTC).
Wow, I hope I can live up to the expectation...! Seriously, thank you so very much. New page patrol is often a thankless task as you know. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 18:11, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
- By the way, guys, did you know that I'm Batman?! Lord Spongefrog, (I am the Czar of all Russias!) 18:46, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
- @ admin :-) we should appreciate anything good :D.--NotedGrant Talk 18:59, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
@ his highness Czar of all Russias Lord spongefrog a.k.a Batman thanks for the comment on my page ,I think you need to update your sig to something which sounds like batman and an aristocratic ruler something like the coolest Wikipedian--NotedGrant Talk 19:05, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
I declined the speedy deletion of this userpage, because it was unclear to me that the userpage was an attack on the Bible or Christianity. (In fact, I thought the user supported capital punishment and was using the Bible to justify it.) There was also no reason for calling the userpage a "hoax" (because it was an opinion page). That said, I advised the user to reduce the amount of discussion of capital punishment on her userpage, because whatever she meant by that discussion, the guidelines say that extensive discussion of personal opinions unrelated to Wikipedia or related topics do not belong on a userpage. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 01:47, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

RE:Taging
I know but I am using AOL 9.1 so I cant use WP:TWINKLE--Coldplay Expert 19:29, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
Just five minutes before, I have uploaded one file named Datta.jpg for my user account Prof. D. S. Vidyasagar. Its my own photograph. I quoted the reason for its uploading and have selected the licensing option to 'own work, release into public domain'. But still the speedy deletion tag on the image is not removed. Please help. {{help}}
--Prof. D. S. Vidyasagar 04:07, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Well, you need to explicitly say that it's your own work, and you need to give the image a license. You can choose one from WP:ICTIC. 04:37, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
Thanks. Your explanations are always so appropriate, that not even a single point skips. Thanks again... --Prof. D. S. Vidyasagar 04:56, 5 October 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Prof. D. S. Vidyasagar (talk • contribs)
{{help}} Why can't the search engine of Wikipedia distinguish between the term 'and' and '&' that the 'Ampere's and'? There should have been some auto option for this distinguishable capacity... --Prof. D. S. Vidyasagar 09:59, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Due to technical restrictions, it is best to avoid using the ampersand character in page names. Template:Wrongtitle can be used to denote problems. Chzz ► 10:06, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- P.S. The reason why is, the mediawiki software uses the ampersand to append commands to a URL, for example, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Notedgrant&action=edit§ion=5. If you try to edit a page called "A&B", this would generate "http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A&B&action=edit - I hope you can see why this is a problem. Thus, although it is possible to have a page containing the character "&", it is not recommended, because of difficulties with various operations, including search. Chzz ► 10:12, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the detailed response chzz :-)--NotedGrant Talk 12:41, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
{{help}} I have uploaded my own photograph Datta.jpg on my User:Prof. D. S. Vidyasagar. But they say, that this will be deleted. They guided me as to do this and that. But I could not do it, due to more complexity in doing all this or perhaps due to incomplete assistance. It is my own photograph, taken by my own camera and retouched in Adobe Photoshop. What else I can give regarding this? Please help... --Prof. D. S. Vidyasagar 13:30, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
- Hi there. :) You need to add one of the licenses at WP:ICT/FL to the page. Thanks! :) — neuro 15:29, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

That undo on my review
Well I was going to write this before you removed the statement (luckily, I copy-pasted the text before I got edit conflicted),
"#: Jeeehasaschweinehund! That's the first time anyone's proposed that. Nah, but I'd probably get ripped apart over there. The slightest mistake can fail your RfA, and I've done a lot of that. In my early days, I once called an IP vandal a B****** (there's a link on my userpage). Right now, I think I'd have to get more experience with the ANI sort of stuff, maybe become more active in a few wikiprojects. And I'd have to act a tad more mature, many admins would oppose for my less-than-exemplary userpage for example (the gibberish for example). But maybe my acknowledging this would be a good thing. I can be pretty mature, and make intelligent statements, when I want to, you guys know that. I'm actually planning to run in four months, give or take, once I've been here for a year. Or if my editing quality makes a drastic increase, I might sooner. But you've made my day, thanks. One day...I'll drop a few hints if I ever want a nominator, Lord Spongefrog (review) (I am Czar of all Russias!) 19:44, 10 October 2009 (UTC)"
And don't worry, that wasn't that bad a thing to say, Abce's not gonna kill you, Lord Spongefrog (review) (I am Czar of all Russias!) 19:44, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Looking forward to working with you on the Sufism article. I am currently on a partial wikibreak though. Will be back to editing fully soon.--Shahab (talk) 08:58, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
- thanks Shahab i'll try working on the article next week during my diwali holidays :-).NotedGrant Talk 12:43, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
Thanks sir, I will try my level best to provide sufficient references for clearing up the Akola page... After all its all under your control, sir... Thanks...--Akshaya_P 09:53, 14 October 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Akshay Paraskar (talk • contribs)
- no nothing is under my control If it would have been under my control I would have removed half of the names present in those sections I'm begging editors of that page to reference those additions to make the article better
- Please do not use sir or something like (everything is under my control) all admins out here may wage a war against me for wp:own and all those wp policies I think we can work together and improve the article
- thanks--NotedGrant Talk 10:07, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
{{help}}
Will you please explain to me, what type of references do you need in order to suggest to keep the names of Famous Personalities of Akola?
The references available on the net or the references available in the books, what exactly? please tell...--Akshaya_P 10:11, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
- You can try wp:ref any third party reliable source is enough wp:rs the help me template is used when asking help from admins you can add that template on your page and your question below it any admin will respond to your query
- you can try google scholar or books or a simple web search
- i think I can remove the help me template if you want an admins input you can reinstate it --NotedGrant Talk 10:20, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
The references available on the internet is more useful and easier to be quoted. Please see WP:RS and WP:V which can possibly help you. Since I am from the same part of the world, I can possible help you identify who may be notable or not to be included. -- Tinu Cherian - 10:22, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
