CONGRADULATIONS!!! (from Princess Rebel)

You now officially a WikiFriend of the wacky, awesome, auzzie Princess Rebel, the most pokeynuts twelve-year-old you will ever meet.

er, i see you are "enraged", so don't take this in a bad way - it's just from one auzzie to another being nice!Princess Rebel (talk) 02:32, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm trying to trim back on the subpages in my userspace, do you think this could be moved into your userspace, if you'd like to keep it around? Feel free to perform the move yourself, or just let me know where you'd like it to go. or let me know if not and I'll figure something else out. –xenocidic (talk) 14:03, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

cheers - thanks, –xenocidic (talk) 13:47, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

WP:HAU, Status, and you!

As you may know, the StatusBot responsible for maintaining the status of the Highly Active Users was taken offline. We now have a replacement in the Qui status system. This semi-automatic system will allow you to easily update your status page found at Special:Mypage/Status which the HAU page code is now designed to read from. If you are already using Qui (or a compatible system) - great! - no action is needed (other than remembering to update your status as necessary). If not, consider installing Qui. You can also manually update this status by changing the page text to online, offline, or busy. While it is not mandatory, the nature of HAU is that people are often seeking a quick answer from someone who is online and keeping our statuses up-to-date will assist with this. Note if you were previously using your /Status page as something other than a one-word status indicator, your HAU entry may have been set to "status=n" to correct display issues. Please clear this parameter if you change things to be "HAU compatible". Further questions can be raised at WT:HAU. This message was delivered by xenobot 23:14, 8 July 2008 (UTC)


Unspecified source for Image:Download.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Download.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 13:26, 19 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? --  «l| Ψrom3th3ăn ™|l»  (talk) 13:26, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Prombot

I've blocked it as it was seemingly running without approval from the BAG. –xeno (talk) 16:05, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

An auto block has hit my account, would you care to remove it?   «l| Ψrom3th3ăn ™|l»  (talk) 16:08, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Autoblock of 203.122.240.118 lifted or expired.

Request handled by:xeno (talk) 16:11, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Done, I've unblocked the bot too, on good faith that it won't be run until it's approved for trial. –xeno (talk) 16:11, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
Im sorry, i didnt mean to violate policy, i misread the "Bots (short for "robots") are generally programs or scripts that make automated edits without the necessity of human decision-making." One of the tasks the bot was performing is manual and i am in full controll of, the other one (image tagging) was fully automatic, which is what you probably blocked it for (my bad)   «l| Ψrom3th3ăn ™|l»  (talk) 16:14, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
No problem - if you're running a manual task like that it would probably be run on your main account for now, and don't run it at more than say 5-6 edits per minute. Even a manual task on an unapproved bot might appear botlike, and if the edit rate is too high, running without a bot flag will flood recentchanges. –xeno (talk) 16:17, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
Alright, I removed the notice. Again, the manual (disambig) task should be run from your main account for now until you get botflagged or approval for trial. –xeno (talk) 16:21, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
Yeah sure, and thanks for your consideration :-)   «l| Ψrom3th3ăn ™|l»  (talk) 16:22, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
