Could you please edit this article so it reads a little less like an advertisement? For example:
- Thousands of critical & demanding applications in the aerospace, semiconductor and trasportation industries have been solved by the unmatched performance of Vespel.
This really isn't NPOV as it claims Vespel has an "unmatched performance" without backing it up. I would also like to see some examples of the thousands of applications mentioned. Exactly how can you solve an application? - Mgm|(talk) 09:56, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- Okay, I'll work on that soon. Krashlandon 11:57, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- Edited the page and added some links. Krashlandon 12:07, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
- See my changes to the first paragraph [1]. Words like "excellent" and "very" make it seem like you're trying to sell a product (the same goes for appeal). Try to avoid words that hype the subject. Also, you say it performs well in vacuum and cryogenics circumstances. Are you telling us it is resisting these extreme conditions without a scratch or is it something else? - Mgm|(talk) 09:55, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
- That looks better. I think it's done now. Krashlandon 12:01, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
- Well, technically a Wikipedia article is never done, but it sure looks better than the very first entry you made. I'll check the article again later. Also, please don't remove posts you made to mine or anyone else's talk page. It's easier for me to remind the conversation this way (instead of looking over all my edits) and it's basically a historical record of what happened. Eventually, I'll archive it. Besides, it's good to have it there. It shows you're willing to work on your entries which a lot of Wikipedians appreciate. - Mgm|(talk) 12:06, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
- Okay, Thanks for your help. :) Krashlandon 13:23, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Deleting advert on talk page
Thanks for deleting the spam link on my talk page. --NaconKantari 01:29, 12 January 2006 (UTC) (Ref summ. K)
- That person has been warned multiple times. Someone needs to freeze him. Krashlandon 01:40, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, it looks like he just was. He also graduated from spam to vandalism. Krashlandon 01:45, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
Welcome
That was a fast welcome. Thank you! AnonEMouse 02:10, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
- You are quite welcome. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Krashlandon 02:23, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
I also thank you for the welcome. --Grocer 22:11, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your nice welcome, obviously it is not only me who thanks you, by the way I am also a computer programmer.--rshzky
- Neat! So am I. By the way, your link was broken. I fixed it here, but make sure you are using ~~~~ Krashlandon 22:26, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks!
Thank you very much for that barnstar. I moved it to the bottom of my awards list (I keep it chronologically). I think you deserve one yourself for taking on criticism and improve your editing skills with them. Expect a barnstar coming your way tomorrow. - Mgm|(talk) 21:52, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you very much. I hope you continue to earn those awards. Krashlandon 22:02, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
Welcome to Esperanza!
Welcome, Krashlandon/Archive 1, to Esperanza, the Wikipedia member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.
Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. Redwolf24 runs the spam to keep members up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.
In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles.
I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Celestianpower, and guided by the Advisory Committee comprised of FireFox, Flcelloguy, Titoxd, and Karmafist. The next set of elections will be in February, and I would be glad to see you vote, or even consider running for a position.
If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Celestianpower by email or talk page or the Esperanza talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work!
Cheers, Sango123 (talk) 00:01, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
P.S. You might also be interested in adding {{User ESP-member}} to your user page. ;)
- Done, and check out my new siggy. Unfortunately I don't have an "e" in my username. Krashlandon (e) 02:26, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
Update
I added your new barnstar to the thanks section above. - Mgm|(talk) 09:05, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks. Now I just need to learn how to format it. Krashlandon (e) 11:54, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
Transportation in NYC
Hello Krashlandon - I noticed your work on the New York City Subway article. You might be interested in the Transportation in New York City sub article. It tells a fascinating story and it's been nominated to be a US Collaboration of the Week after lots of work over the last few weeks. Check it out and if you like it, please vote for it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:USCOTW We need all the votes we can get! Wv235 04:22, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
- Excellent article about an excellent topic. I voted support, even though it already qualifies. Krashlandon (e) 23:38, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot for your support and your NYC transport related work. A great topic, I couldn't agree more. I'm duly honored by the Barnstar. Wv235 05:25, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
- People keep thanking you, but you never got an award. Hard work like yours deserves recognition. Krashlandon (e) 11:57, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Just a note
Although it's great that you're trying to welcome new users after they make their first edit...
you should make sure that it's a genuine edit, and not, say, replacing the text of the featured article with forty pictures of penises. The vandals giggle when they get the welcome message. DS 02:11, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
- Just to clarify, I did not welcome them when they made their first edit, I welcomed indiscriminately when they first registered. I'm sorry they turned out bad. Krashlandon (e) 02:13, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Tallahassee
In reply to this.
Well, I don't do much expansion, but I might take a gander at it. - Aerobird 15:41, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks. Also, if you know anyone else who could expand it, please let them know. Krashlandon (e) 17:14, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
- Article Improvement Drive might work; Tallahassee is becoming a big city (tho still pretending it's a small town, which causes no end of problems) but it's still a small fish in the Florida pond. Aerobird 15:41, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
The quote on my user page
In reply to this.
It was the first ever vandalism to my user page. The diff is here if it helps. --GraemeL (talk) 23:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
US Collaboration of the week
You have voted for Transportation in New York City on WP:USCOTW. It was selected to be this week's winner. You are invited to contribute to improve Transportation in New York City in any way you can. Cmadler 13:33, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
Another Esperanzial note...
Hi again Esperanzians! Well, since our last frolic in the realms of news, the Advisory Council has met twice more (see WP:ESP/ACM2 and WP:ESP/ACM3). As a result, the charter has been ammended twice (see here for details) and all of the shortcuts have been standardised (see the summary for more details). Also of note is the Valentines ball that will take place in the Esperanza IRC channel on the 14th of February (tomorrow). It will start at 6pm UTC and go on until everyone's had enough! I hope to see you all there! Also, the spamlist has been dissolved - all Esperanzians will now recieve this update "newsletter".
The other major notice I need to tell you about is the upcoming Esperanza Advisory Council Elections. These will take place from 12:00 UTC on February 20th to 11:59 UTC on February 27th. The official handing-over will take place the following day. Candidates are able to volunteer any time before the 20th, so long as they are already listed on the members list. Anyone currently listed on the memberlist can vote. In a change since last time, if you have already been a member of the leadership, you may run again. Due to the neutrality precident, I will not vote for anyone.
Yours, as ever, Esperanzially,
--Celestianpower háblame 09:00, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
(message delivered by FireFox using AWB on Celestianpower's behalf)
for what?
Thanks for what, specifically? I participate in a number of AfD discussions and am wondering what this is in reference to? I like your name, BTW. -- Krash (Talk) 19:40, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
Warning from popups
I think this will do the trick:
extraPopupFilters=[]; function popupFilterWarn(wikiText, download) { var article= (new Title()).fromURL(download.url); if (!article.userName) { return ''; } var talkpage = article.talkPage() || article; var html='<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=' + escape(talkpage) + '&action=edit&autoedit=s/$/\\n\\n{{subst:test}}%20~~~~/&autosummary=Your%20edits&autoclick=wpPreview">warn</a>'; return html; }; extraPopupFilters.push(popupFilterWarn);

sorry for reverting
Hi Krashlandon, sorry for reverting. I already pushed the button, then i realized:) Cheers--Ugur Basak 02:54, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
- That's fine. ;) Krashlandon (e) 02:55, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

What is Esperanza?
I am sorry. I noticed that next to your name you had '(E)' and when I clicked on it I found the page on Esperanza. What exactly is this? When/how was it founded? Would you suggest I join? and why?
Thank you for your time. MoleculeUpload 19:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
No worries

Tired Cat
Greetings! I noticed you uploaded Image:Tired Cat.jpg, but you didn't provide a source for it. I've seen this picture everywhere; where'd you find the license info? Thanks, Mindspillage (spill yours?) 03:56, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, it will still need a source; all pictures uploaded to Wikipedia do, as otherwise there is no way to verify that the tagging is accurate. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 13:39, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Question
In welcoming me, you said I should ask you if I had any questions. Now I do. Here: Wikipedia_talk:Image_copyright_tags#Government_copyrights:_Sejm_vs_EU_imae_differences.3F I uploaded an image, looked around for what to tag it, and found the tag said "This is a non-free license, since modification is not permitted" - but I can't find anything about modification in the copyright description. Other copyrights (like for the Sejm, the Polish govt) that don't say anything about modification are considered "free", why does the EU (and European Parliament) tag say that these aren't "free"?

Old Skool Esperanzial note
Since this isn't the result of an AC meeting, I have decided to go Old Skool. This note is to remind you that the elections are taking place now and will end at 23:50 UTC on 2006-04-29. Please vote here. Thanks. --Celestianpower háblame 20:42, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update
As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.
As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.
Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Michael Guido, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Hello Krashlandon, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:StarMetro Logo.png) was found at the following location: User:Krashlandon/pictures. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits. I ask you to please not re-add the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain. Thanks for your attention and cooperation. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 20:06, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
