You're welcome.
I check the new userboxes page on occasion and saw yours and added them because they're to the point and different too. Keep up the good work. --Slyder Pilot 20:28, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

- How did you do that templete add thing? Ive wanted to create more boxes but i dont no how to do that ForeverDEAD 02:01, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
- Next time, type "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/" on the URL bar, then type "User:Esskater11/*USERBOX NAME*" if you want userboxes to be in your domain (a bit like your own trademark), or "Template:*USERBOX NAME*", preferably if the userbox's topic is 'universal' (like the one I've just added). Remove *USERBOX NAME* with, well, the name of the userbox, and there you go! --Jw21/PenaltyKillah(discuss•edits)'NUCKS:4-6-0 02:07, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

message thanks for helping out my students! You made a lasting impression on them! Thelmadatter (talk) 17:11, 26 November 2007 (UTC) |
- Wow... thanks! Really, I hardly think I deserve it! ;) Well, I'm happy to know that the 'kids' are matured Wikipedia contributors (no more caps, eh?), and I wish you and your class great successes in whatever you do! Thanks for the award! --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|12-9-2 19:04, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
- Dont worry... this is just a cheap ploy to get you to keep helping my students! hee hee hee In reality, I plan to continue working with Wikipedia in my classes, not as intensive in the spring, but we will be doing something. Thelmadatter (talk) 19:19, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
- Ok... *smile droops* XD Well... they have been quite inactive lately... I found no activity in my watchlist for weeks. But some users did contribute on their own. Glad to hear that the students are doing fine, and good luck in the future! --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|12-9-2 19:22, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

When you find dbl redirects, please don't blank them, fix them or leave them alone so others may do so. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 19:28, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
- (reply from User talk:Carlossuarez46:) I had moved some Archos pages due to a discussion, but after further study on the source link, I attempted to re-move (no pun intended), or re-rename Archos Jukebox series to Archos Jukebox as no proof of the word "series" is actually used. The attempt was fruitless, as the page was used as a re-direct page. I tried blanking it, and moving it again. Turns out that Wikipedia doesn't allow a blank page replaced. And then I forgot to revert the blank. I may try requesting a move to admins, and if you have the time to do so, that would be a lot of help. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|16-10-3 06:54, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
sorry
sorry about that Zen picture. And please, I do not ignore those warnings on my talk page. I try to upload pictures that can give a visual representation of the subject. In fact most of the dead links are there b/c the pictures were replaced by newer versions. Again I am sorry for uploading that Zen and I'll make sure to get the right tag before uploading anything else. -- ZookPS3 (talk) 20:57, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
- It's okay. I just thought... when I saw "people love my pictures", admist all those warnings, that it seemed a bit ignorant, if not deceptive. A majority of the pictures you uploaded are obviously salvaged when the right tag was replaced, but it involved the manpower of many other users. You can continue uploading images, but just learn about the license tags and the importance of them. No one wants a lawsuit, eh? ;) Contact me or the help desk if you have inquiries. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|19-12-4 21:18, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
- If I took a homemade picture of my own Zen would that be allowed? -- ZookPS3 (talk) 02:08, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Yes. Do not use the fair use tag. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|23-14-4 02:19, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Ok I just upload a photo taken by me of the player, can you check it to see if it needs any other information, tags, etc? -- ZookPS3 (talk) 19:42, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
- Yes. Do not use the fair use tag. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|23-14-4 02:19, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks...!
I haven't discussed my edits with anyone so far, I thought them to be minor. This stupid IE layout problem really bugs me whenever I come across it, and I know I'd sleep better knowing it was fixed for good :) . Steppres (talk) 08:37, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Re. Palmer Vandalism
lol yeah, sorry, couldn't help it. I assume you are in Palmer yourself, or were at some point. Just imagine Ebe as maskot! Hillarious! -- SergeiXXX -- 02:36, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Should you be blocked for vandalism, or be accused of sockpuppetry? Both seemed very tempting... And is it a coincidence that User:142.33.185.2 is the IP for RC Palmer? I've got evidence of you using multiple accounts and IPs, by the way... --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|23-14-4 02:41, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Chinese MP4 article
In the talk page of this article you said notability was a factor in why rockchip got deleted but as the notability guidelines in the article you linked to clearly indicate "Notability guidelines do not directly limit article content". As such, cause I wasn't pushing to create an article about Rockchip, notability has little bearing on this. I also think that a segment about quite a dramatic shift in type of product of a product is very notable on a product's page, it's like saying a segment on windows 2000 isn't notable enough for the windows page, it's crazy. I strongly suggest you stop messing around with this page or at least stop reverting edits as your progress has been largely unhelpful and it has become apparent that you don't fully understand wikipedia policies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AresAndEnyo (talk • contribs) 02:39, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm... there isn't a segment on Windows 2000 on the Microsoft Windows article. And if there's something I'm guilty of, it should be for the fact that I do not completely understand the "Chinese MP4 player" concept. I was doing my job to make the article neat, with the basic information. I would like you to also seek the opinion of other users in the Wikipedia community. Thanks for the note. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|23-14-4 05:39, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Firstly, I had only reverted edits on external links, which are links to message forums (not a place of encyclopedic researchable knowledge), and are completely unrelated to "Rockchip". When I added "One word: Notable?", I was just giving my opinion on why such a section may have been deleted... And speaking of that section... I had traced this article's history, and there are no evidence, whatsoever, of me participating in the removal of a "Rockchip" section. I do not tolerate such accusations. Seeing that you added back the spam links, and after reading your comment from my talk page, I have decided not to revert it this time, for now, and see if it still stands. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|23-14-4 06:07, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
Your UserBox
I see that you posted a thank for using your userbox on my page, and I've replied them. I'm not sure if I'm doing it right and you'd get the message. Wiki is far from helpful when it comes to answering a freaking simple question like 'how the f do I reply my own talk page?'... Please correct me if I'm not doing it right in replying talks. -- Anthonydraco
- I added a simple sig, btw. Next time when you post a comment on a talk page, always sign your name at the end of the message (click the button with a signature, in between the "No W" button and the dash button).
- When you reply, just add a colon (":") in the beginning of the line, followed by a space. It would cause an indentation, imitating a nested-style thread. Hope this helps. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|24-14-4 20:18, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Request for comment on Category Redirect template
Because you are a member of WikiProject Categories, your input is invited on some proposed changes to the design of the {{Category redirect}} template. Please feel free to view the proposals and comment on the template talk page. --Russ (talk) 22:00, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
The "damn gay liberals" userbox
Even though it's sarcastic, it's in violation of WP:Civility. Sarcasm, by itself, is not incivility. Throwing homophobic epithets around is. Your userbox was used as a possible example of "uncivil" userboxes (see the discussion here) and by keeping it up, you encourage the likelihood that the community will build consensus to censor all political userboxes. So, I please request that you delete it. ☯ Zenwhat (talk) 08:11, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
- Right. It's reworded slightly. Thanks. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|25-17-4 19:07, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
Is this personal?
Waht do you want from me? Leave me alone! Stop harrassing me on my talk page. I have a right to post or delete anything I want there. And I am not a "sockpuppeter". I don't even know what that is! I was just having some fun on the Palmer page. Then, I logged off, and, forgetting that I am logged off, I edited again. That is why the IPs came out different. Give me a break. What did I do to you? My own account got hacked three weeks ago. I don't know what they (the hackers) did with it, or the edits they made. I know I didn't go anywhere outside the Palmer article. Oh, and just so you know, I have two articles that I have started here:
So, I do "contribute constructively".
Anything else?
--User:142.33.185.2. 04:41, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
- I am very sorry if you've been hacked, so please state your case on that page to avoid a block. Remember to always log out whenever you finish using a public PC. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|25-18-5 04:46, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
New Semester, New Appeal
This semester I am teaching academic writing to a group of teachers at my school. This course starts on Monday Jan 28. I would like to know if you are still interesting in "mentoring". You can see the syllabus at Wikipedia:School_and_university_projects/ITESM_Campus_Toluca/SyllabusIf so, please leave a message on my talk page and update the mentor's page Wikipedia:School_and_university_projects/ITESM_Campus_Toluca/Mentors, if . If not, please remove your name and information from that page. Thanks! Thelmadatter (talk) 21:19, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
May I ask you why using "Image:TabWindow.JPG" is not OK?
May I ask you why using "Image:NewTab.JPG" is not OK?
You deleted the image from the userbox I made(User:BrianGo28/Userboxes/TabWindow), but did not delete the image from Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BrianGo28 (talk • contribs) 06:44, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
- Non-free images cannot be used for user-generated content outside of the Wikipedia namespace, namely userboxes. --Jw21/PenaltyKillah VANucks|26-19-5 07:33, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Partial list of stubs/short articles created or rewritten by Adv A students
I know there are a lot here but many are very short stubs. If there are a lot of grammar mistakes, just tag it with a clean up tag. I did not require that they wikify the articles due to time. Final versions for grading purposes are due Tue Feb 5 so any help you can give would be appreciated.

The student´s stub is under the information about the mission), Álvaro Obregón (municipality), Zentla, Bernal, Querétaro, Temoaya, Acambay, Xpu Há, Chapa de Mota, Pasorapa, Huasca_de_Ocampo, Malinalco, Mexico State, Almoloya de Júarez, Polotitlan, Córdoba, Veracruz, Mexicaltzingo, Lagunillas, Michoacán, [Ixcateopan]], Benito Júarez, Quintana Roo, Jocotitlan, Ixtlahuaca, Temascaltepec, Teapa, Tabasco, Huandacareo, Zualcapan, México, Capulhuac, Xalatlaco, Boca del Cielo

Again thanks! The students are taking your tagging their articles to heart. Thelmadatter (talk) 20:39, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
I request that you reevaluate your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nuku Nuku Dash. The article has been heavily expanded from the one line stub when the AfD began and is at a point that I feel it can stand on its own. --Farix (Talk) 04:01, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
