Hi

edit

Jenova20 as me to say hi to you so I am. Hi! LOL! ^_^ Swifty*talk 18:27, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

I noticed, I think he wants me to get to know people from the get-go Hey there anyways. *waves* BlueStars83 (talk) 09:37, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
It's Editor Retention and Relations. I believe if new editors get support from the "get-go" and see the friendly atmosphere and help they can so easily get with the know-how then they're more likely to stay and see the benefits rather than think they're on their own and get no help. Thanks Jenova20 (email) 09:53, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Alright show-off :p BlueStars83 (talk) 09:55, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Uploaded your image yet? Jenova20 (email) 09:57, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
I text you saying that email never had an image with it. So you'll have to send it again! BlueStars83 (talk) 10:02, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Google Drive does that sometimes...i'm not sure why...I'll resend around 3pm Jenova20 (email) 10:07, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Okie dokes, I won't be able to do it now til after then anyways. BlueStars83 (talk) 10:23, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Want to do it tomorrow afternoon then when i can show you how to link and use images? Jenova20 (email) 10:38, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
I guess so yeah. Be better I spose! BlueStars83 (talk) 14:29, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Adoption

edit

Hey BlueStars83! It looks like Jenova's running you through your paces very quickly, but I've managed to pop along to let you know that your personal adoption page is now up and about. It should hopefully give you a bit of an insight into the way things work around here. To get to it, just wander over to User:Worm That Turned/Adopt/BlueStars83. If there's anything you want to chat about, there's a talk page too. Otherwise, get in there, be bold, edit some articles! There's nothing to be scared of. WormTT(talk) 12:57, 7 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Your uploads

edit

You may recognise one at the bottom here. Thanks for uploading it Jenova20 (email) 23:19, 9 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Merkin

edit

...Yeah, maybe i won't refer to your nationality as A Merkin again after looking it up...Jenova20 (email) 09:27, 14 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Adoption interference

edit

I'm not cheating or helping you cheat but trying to help you get thinking on this one since it's very important. It's called WP:Synthesis when you make stuff up which neither source says. Example:

  • Reference 1 says plants are growing bigger, and reference 2 says meningitis rates are going up, can you combine them to say bigger plants cause meningitis or do you need another reference which specifically says bigger plants cause meningitis to add that?

Think about it...Jenova20 (email) 08:21, 19 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

It's a good example, I might keep that in mind. Either way, I've left a comment and a new lesson. So sorry about the delay, I hope you can let me off! WormTT(talk) 14:24, 15 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thanks very much Teammm, nice of you to say. And yes Jenova has been a very good teacher, he's helped me a lot up to now. Got Worm That Turned testing me on all things Wiki atm also. Having a little trouble understanding some things but I'm sure I'll get there in time. BlueStars83 (talk) 21:04, 20 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
  Research Participation Barnstar
Well done on passing, you gave me good ideas on how to improve my 10 part challenge and to see you passed reaffirms how much work we both put in (you especially) You really earned this, your first Barnstar! Enjoy! Congratulations! Jenova20 (email) 16:04, 3 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Cool, cheers dude. Outta interest, whose ya favorite Espada? BlueStars83 (talk) 20:40, 12 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
My favorite? I love Ulquiorra Cifer and Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez. I also make my own Bleach characters Jester66 (talk) 22:29, 12 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
Mines Grimmjow too. He's pretty awesome. Ulqiuorra wasn't too bad though. – Blue☆Stars83 17:20, 13 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
I'm still angry Yammy turned out to be the strongest one, it's such a copout. Jester66 (talk) 19:08, 13 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
I agree. I thought he was a bit pointless in all honesty – Blue☆Stars83 12:05, 14 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
yeah I would have been better if the list stayed as 1-10, not 0-9. Jester66 (talk) 20:58, 14 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
Do you do any work on the Bleach articles? – Blue☆Stars83 21:11, 14 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
No, but I did put categorized Ichigo with someone with multiple personalities. Jester66 (talk) 21:55, 14 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hey, I actually REALLY like it. If you can though, just so i can see what it looks like, could you do it the same way but the writing in blue, the star white and have a red background? BlueStars83 (talk) 20:31, 12 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
Awesome!
Here's some more. Teammm -Talk- 22:53, 12 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
Cool, thanks for doing them, Jenova likes the second one, but hey, it's not his signature lol. I personally think the original is perfect. So thanks for that dude, much appreciated. Thanks. BlueStars83 (talk) 01:27, 13 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
Anytime! I'm glad you liked them. I wanted to change mine too. I think it's perfect now. :)  ~ Teammm Talk

Hey

Just came across this, just wanted to let you know I wasn't ignoring you. LOL, it is a great quote! CTF83! 10:22, 19 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hey, no worries dude, I understand you have a lack of home internet right now (unless it's sorted now that is). And I do agree, very classic Homer. – Blue☆Stars83 21:25, 19 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
Nah, I have no intention of getting it back. I use to spend 8-12 rediculous hours a day on here, not worth $60 a month for internet. I just cut way back here, which makes me happy :) CTF83! 00:32, 20 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
You got a life instead? No fair! You're gonna make the rest of us look bad Jenova20 (email) 11:57, 20 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

ThunderCats response

edit

If you are talking about the character page for the ThunderCats, I have been keeping the Overall info on the Thunderians about the ThunderCats and other Thunderians where the Anonymous contributor has been moving it above the section for Claudus. I am saying that the overall info on the Thunderians should be over the entire sections dedicated to the Thunderians (except for the ones that are in the villains' section).

A cup of coffee for you!

edit
  I really didn't want you involved in ANI, or anything similar this early but you did make a well reasoned and calm response and i think for that you have earned this cuppa. Enjoy Jenova20 (email) 09:23, 20 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. Well, I spent a good few hours reading through everything, and it just got to the point where I needed to have a say. But I think I did well with that comment. – Blue☆Stars83 09:54, 20 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
Let's hope it's taken in the spirit it's meant! What's the time diff there btw? Thanks Jenova20 (email) 10:06, 20 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
Lets hope indeed. I'm 7 hours behind you. It's currently 3:10am here. Can't sleep, jetlag. Gunna stay awake til tonight, shall get some proper sleep then. Unless I fall to sleep in which case I don't need to stay awake haha. – Blue☆Stars83 10:14, 20 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
I suppose you can survive on coffee through the day. You should try and sleep though, even if it's just a nap. Jenova20 (email) 10:49, 20 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi Bluestars. Don't worry about the delay, I've been extraordinarily pre-occupied in the past couple of months, but I'm doing my best to try and look after my adoptees. I've stuck the test up, good luck with it! WormTT(talk) 10:50, 6 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
