Re: A short little question

Hey Jimbo. Before I say I say anything, this is one fine website you got here. :) Okay, the question. Well, on your infobox, you have three userboxes. I thought it would be a good idea to put some userboxes in my infobox. However, when I did get around to doing it, all of my ID box content was shifted up, so it wasn't centered, and it created a thick grey line between the info and ID content. Can you tell me why? And, if it's not to much trouble, can you tell me how to fix it so the ID content is centered? Because right now, it looks less than fabulous. Check out my userpage so you can see what I'm talking about. [1] Thanx for reading, Jimbo. Scrumshus 18:10, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not to be discouraging, but often times Jimbo isn't able to respond to comments on his talk page (he's a busy man after all). So, if you want, I can fix it for you. -- joturn e r 19:31, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I figured it out, I guess I forgot to delete my comment,. thanx anyways. Scrumshus 19:33, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

About the outlines

Joturner, I really like your Userpage layout, so I decided to put a page outline on mine. However, when I did, it didn't outline the enitre page and has a huge blank spot in the middle of it. How do I fix it? I'm only 13 and don't understand WIkipedia's complex stuff for the most part. If you can help me, that would be great. Scrumshus 20:19, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to fix it for you. By the way, you can link to pages on Wikipedia like [[Wikipedia]]. If you want different text to appear than the name of the place you link to (like this link: my user page), you can type [[User:Joturner|my user page]]. -- joturn e r 21:38, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, man. I owe you one. :) Scrumshus 22:25, 15 July 2006 (UTC

You can use {{quotation}}. Type something like {{quotation|To be or not to be}} to get the desired effect. -- joturn e r 22:43, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Will do. :) Scrumshus 22:46, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You can do [[School of Rock|<font color="red">Dewey Finn</font>]], although I must warn you that red links - like gdkhagkjdshgjksah - tend to indicate articles that don't yet exist. -- joturn e r 00:52, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Why can't more people be as helpful as you? I'm nominating you for an administrator on August 17th. Scrumshus 00:54, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nice implementation of his page design man. It really doesn't look that bad. The only thing that I would be cautious about it the userboxes. Someone might come by (someday) and try to put them all on a subpage. Regards, Alphachimp ^talk 19:14, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

LOL. Sure, I guess that would work =D. Alphachimp ^talk 19:21, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I corrected the problem with the Music link. -- tariqabjotu (joturner) 23:59, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Barnstar

The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar

I award User:Tariqabjotu a random act of kindness barnstar for helping me out on my userpage many times. You earned it! Scrumshus 19:21, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks; it's no problem at all. I added your barnstar to my userpage. -- tariqabjotu (joturner) 19:30, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Show/Hide

to anyone who knows more about wikipedia than I do, I wan to intall User:Scrumshus/Userbox mini2 inot my inof box, but whenever I do, it shosw and hides my entire page from thaat point on. How do I put it in without ruining my page?

Show/Hide

Hey Tariqabjotu, not to be burden, but you do know Wikipedia a whole lot better than I do. i was experiementing with those windows that you can 'Click to Show' and 'Click to Hide'. I made a successful one a User:Scrumshus/Userbox mini. However, when I tried to work it into my inofbox on the left side of my userpage, it wouldn't cooperate. I tried working it inot my alternate inofbox, but it didn't work either. If you follow my links, you'll see what I'm talking about. Can you help me fit my Show/Hide bar into my inofobx? Thanx, Scrumshus 17:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I may have fixed the infobox situation. However, you may need to change the sizes of surrounding elements to make your page look okay. -- tariqabjotu (joturner) 23:55, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not too good at wikisyntax, but I made some changes and it looks like it works now. The userpage does not seem to work well at an 800x600 resolution, however; I'll try to look into this later if I find time. If you need any more help, feel free to ask me. -- Where 04:58, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: This user is also an american idiot

Really? You made that userbox? That is so damn cool. Which leads me to my question. How'd you find my profile? (Unless your userboxes track which users use 'em). And I'd also like to say you have a real cool userpage. It really looks nice. VelocityEX 05:00, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Woodstockmud.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Woodstockmud.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. 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 {{fairusein|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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jkelly 20:36, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Bja.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bja.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Green Day good article

I really do want to get it listed as a good article again, but I don't think it's ready yet. We still need a lot more citations, cut down on the info for each album (the album pages can be used for that), cut down on POV and fannish writing (which got it delisted in the first place), and so forth, and because of this it would probably be automatically denied if we listed it as a good article nominee. I'll work on it some more in the next few days. WesleyDodds 21:38, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

it really goes in-depth into the songs and other material about the albums that are best reserved for the album pages themselves. For comparison, look at The Smashing Pumpkins, which I've worked heavily on. WesleyDodds 22:36, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
