Barnstars 'R' U

;D Claude Raines can you see me now?  03:09, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Heh, thanks! I already nicked it, though - the visible parts, at least. ;) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 05:35, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

It is from a hidden page, after all. ;D And from a relative unknown. ;D The Unknown Comic ^{it's not my bag} 00:06, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

I am known, and quite visible. —La Chat ^{(Meow-Meow•Purr-Purr•Mew)} 06:17, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

From, not to :D Rorschach ^{do you know me?} 06:27, & 06:28, 14 December 2008 (UTC) (Go ahead, otherwise I might take a year to answer these. =] And now you've got me forgetting the timestamps, too, curse you. =])

I'm really dumb today...-_- So you are...invisible? How come I can see your sig, plain as day? How come you can "curse" me, but I can see you do it and smile to boot? —La Chat ^{(Meow-Meow•Purr-Purr•Grr.)} 06:32, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm from Cheshire. Didn't you know? ;D C. L. Dodgson ^{candid camera?} 06:37, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, thought you were one of those regular toms prowling the nights... —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 06:38, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

You haven't seen "Hollow Man", have you? ;D Hector Ayala ^{my ninja?} 06:45, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Nope, but I have seen The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, which reminds me that it's bed time. G'nite. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 06:48, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

'nite, kitty. TREKphiler ^{hit me ♠} 06:51, 14 December 2008 (UTC) (BTW, trying to answer you on 2 pages, & find the right names for aliases, didn't leave a lot of time for talkpage cleanup. ;D )

Wait 'til Poochy-poo finds out you've been calling me "kitty"... —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 06:53, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

He'll have to catch me, first. ;D Richard Kimble ^{del shannon} 03:21, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Nope - you'll have to catch me. :P —La Runaway ^{(Tag!•You're•it.)} 03:41, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

What the...how...? —La Confused ^{(Wut•hoppened•hear?)} 03:51, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm faster than a speeding bullet but not more powerful than a locomotive or able to lift tall buildings. ;D Quicksilver ^{frankly, scarlet, i don't give a damn} 03:58, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

(<-) Sure you're not a bird? Or a plane? —Margo Channing ^{(Fasten your seatbelts•It's going to be•a bumpy night)}

Very sure, Eve. (Put the apple down & step away.) ;D Hawkman ^{if that's erica jong, i'm not here} 04:25, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

The apple goes on your head, smarty. —William Tell ^{(Oops,•I•missed.)} 04:31, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Not if I shoot it out of your hand, first, Atalanta. ;D Oliver Queen ^{tell mike grell no} 04:41, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

<--FYI, while you think of a reply ;D, I'm off for a bit. Got some reading I should do. Ta. TREKphiler ^{hit me ♠} 04:45, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Pianista defeated in a battle of punnery? I thought I'd never see the day! Apocalypse15 04:59, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Yes...but you might not see the day after. —Lucrezia Borgia ^{(Want•to come•inside, sweetheart?)} 05:06, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Wonder if Ed is about to get syphillis... Affairs15 04:59, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Scandalous! What makes you think I would be unfaithful to my Eddie? *closes door to bedroom behind her* —La Carmen ^{(Quand•je vous•aimerai?)} 05:38, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Facepalm So I read it wrong again.... I am still Carmen, though. —La Carmen ^{(Ma foi,•je ne•se pas)} 05:45, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

So you have hairy pits? I remember seeing this movie version of Carmen, and she was decidedly fuzzy under her arms. bibliomaniac15 06:07, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

That matters little - a Latin temptress with a fondness for piano, tango, and men is sexy no matter how many hairs she has, and where. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 20:48, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

<--Sure, no prob. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 04:49, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Ah, despair not, fair maiden (well, fair anyhow ;D), one cannot count victory over beauty, ere by truth, for verily, even in truth is beauty, & beauty, like truth, be eternal. ;D Lazaras Long ^{rah rah rah} 16:12, 15 December 2008 (UTC) (I'm baaaack.... =])

BTW, you left me with no comeback in the kookie duel, so we're even. ;D (not so) Famous Andy ^{i'm getting baked} 16:18, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Or maybe not. Count von Count ^one 19:21, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Sweet revenge! Try me - I got barrels of ammo. :P —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 20:48, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Me, too. And I'm a better shot. Jon Sable ^{holy moses} 07:53 & 08:04, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Wow. Just wow. So many lol's... Allanon ^{♠The Dark Druid♠} 19:34, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

So that's what my knight does when he arrives. Comments on how many lulz he got from this discussion, rather then getting his hands dirty and pulling me out of this muck. Enviable chivalry. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 20:36, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Pull yourself out - Ed is on break until mid-Jan. :D Allanon ^{♠The Dark Druid♠} 07:14, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

You can always drop him. Or tell the truth about what he really believes. Bernardo Gui ^{inquiring minds want to know} 07:21, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

What! My Eddie, a heretic? I demand evidence! —La Guinevere ^{(Lancelot,•where art thou,•Lancelot?)} 18:20, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

We don't need evidence. However, we point you to his use of an alias. What has he to hide? ;D Tomas de Torquemada ^{burn, baby, burn} 09:27, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

(out) He has to hide...his utter hatred of one of his "friends". :O :P —Carmen Sandiego ^{(Where•in the world•am I?)} 21:17, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

When did we become friends? ;D Prof. Jm Moriarty ^{7% solution} 04:07, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

The question should be, "When did we become enemies?" Ponder that - I'm off to bed. Ciao! —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 06:33, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

"To be, or not to be", I think, is the question. (I could be wrong. ;p) Mr. A ^{who are you calling batty?} 07:49, 08:15, & 20:05, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Being isn't the problem - doing it, especially the right way, is. ;P

And it's all stupid - I have not the slightest problem with that. —Lady Lou ^{(Why don't you•come up sometime•and see me?)} 20:12, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

I have been accused of being obscure, on occasion, you see... (I've also small problem with coming up. ;D I thank you for the kind thought, tho. ;D) Charles Xavier ^{keep your hair on} 20:28, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

It might not be so kind, though... —La Carrie ^{(I can•lift you,•easy.)} 20:32, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Been there, done that, got the spandex. ;D Cameron Vale ^{doctor, my eyes} 21:27, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

...Is there any reference you can use besides comics? :P —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 21:40, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Yes, but why? ;D Alec Hudson ^{i'm getting bombed} 22:12 & 22:14, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Because I'm unfamiliar with the large lot of them. Because I said so. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 05:14, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Your wish is my command. ;D Heinrich Steinweg ^{if music be the food of profit, play on} 10:54, 20 December 2008 (UTC) (BTW, feel free to ask for translation. =] 12:45, 20 December 2008 (UTC))

oh, yah. i iz most stoopid...omahgaw, I'm typing, lawl. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 23:50, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

My word, the riffraff they let in here. ;D Miss Mona Stangley ^{country roads, take me home} 09:44, 21 December 2008 (UTC) (And, as usual, I was unclear. I did mean "of the comics refs".)

(out) Sumthin rong here? Kittehmaster is letting in peoplez acting lyk sox but r not sox but r nuts. Wuz rong with kittehmastr? Chamal ^talk 14:31, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Me, for one. ;D Rep. David Dilbeck ^{if you've got the money, honey} 15:03, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

"Whorehouse"? I object! The proper term is "courtesan." :P —La Violetta ^{(Ah,•fors'è •lui)} 23:50, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

The lady (?) doth protest too much, methinks. ;D Hamlet (III.ii.242) ^{no, i don't have bruce wayne's phone number} 17:09 & 17:13, 22 December 2008 (UTC) (I looked it up. :D)

Dennis Miller...? Who is this rogue by the name of Dennis Miller? Comedian? He must maketh a good income... How much does this Miller pay per night? —La Violetta ^{(Aristocrat•clients•only)} 18:58, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

More than I can afford. ;D John Walton, Jr. ^{jim-bob, can you spare a dime?} 23:01, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Come now, it's the holidays. Borrow from your friends, eBay some stuff if you have to...Okay, here's a deal - how about one grand for the whole night? All the furnishes. —La Violetta ^{(Pricey•pricey•pricey)} 01:20, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Donate it to wikipedia. Jimbo himself is asking for money. Evil, you people are. Jus lyk kittehmaster. Chamal ^talk 01:31, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Does ed know about this? ;D I'd have to mortgage the Mountain, or go to work for the Baldwin sisters, to raise it, besides, & the old woman wouldn't be too happy. (A grand night I daresay it would be, though. ;D) Zebulon Walton ^{there's recipe in them thar hills} 01:41, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

True, true. Well, it's a slow time, with the economy and all. All the rich guys are married now - lots of fun, but the wives keeps sending me death threats. —La Violetta ^{(Santa Baby•Just slip a sable under the tree•for me?)} 01:46, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

And Chamal...say, you have money to throw around, don't you, if you've donated? —La Violetta ^{(I'm•gettin' nuthin'•for Christmas)} 01:48, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

(out) What? Another of my girls is cheating on me? Oh, the horror! Ed... ^{♠is evidently the husband of Mae West or something♠} —Preceding undated comment was added at 02:09, 23 December 2008 (UTC).

Ed, I wasn't cheating on you. With you. This has been my business for quite some time. Didn't you see I was quite experienced our first time together? —La Violetta ^{(Santa's comin' to town•but I'm getting nothin'•just a lump of coal to bring me down)} 02:13, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

SINEBOT ATTACKED! :O

O_O Lovely. :)

No, I just found out that my ex started going out with the guy that she "wasn't" cheating on me with—on the night I broke up with her... -_- I should have listened to my friends and realized that she was playing me for a fiddle, but whatever. I'm over it! :) Stupid women. :D :D :D Allanon ^{♠The Dark Druid♠} 02:22, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Real response: Good for you! Hope you find a girl deserving of you sometime - and that'll be hard, truly. Almost as hard as for me to find a deserving guy. ;P

Mock response: Ah, one less obstacle. All we need is a plane ticket, and a time and place... :D :D :D —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 02:27, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Way to go Ed! And yes Pianista, I have a lot of money. Want some? I have no idea what that page is saying. Chamal ^talk 02:37, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

O.o Was not expecting that answer...

The question is rather if you. Just say when, where, how. ;D —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 02:39, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

No comment on that :S Ed, I'll give you that money, all of it. Just ask. I don't think I want it now ;D Chamal ^talk 02:49, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

LOL! Gosh, I'm not that ugly, am I? :D —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 02:51, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Response to the real response: Aw, thanks :)

Resp. to the mock: ROFL!

"Way to go"? LOL! No seriously, what does that page say?.

Woot! I like the green.

How do we know? We haven't seen a pic. :O (;P) Allanon ^{♠The Dark Druid♠} 03:19, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

You want a pic? Fine...here. (Actually, I admit, though I have denied it, that particular one does look quite a bit like me if I let my hair down and cut it pretty. :D ) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 03:23, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

(out) So you give a pic of a...pianist? <sarcastic tone>Really? Allanon ^{♠The Dark Druid♠} 03:35, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Yah, rly. Face it - I'm hot. :P —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 03:39, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Modest, too. ;D I can see I'll never want for material. ;D And good to know where I can always find pussy. =] Walter Winchell ^{read all about it} 13:36, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

(Serious, to ed: That really sucks. I'm speechless somebody could do that. TREKphiler ^{hit me ♠} 13:36, 23 December 2008 (UTC))

Careful...this one hasn't been declawed, and she gets into little catfights regularly. ;P —La Chat ^{(Meow•Mew•Mao?)} 20:45, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

I can handle it, Miss Kitty. I've got protection. ;D Mike Grell ^{don't bother me, vanth} 00:40, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Strange you call that protection...it makes me wild. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 03:31, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Ah, but it guarantees you won't be in a bad mood. ;p Mr. Tambourine Man ^{shake shake shake} 15:58, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Hm. Yes, it could be all fun and games for the night, but who knows what happens comes morning? —La Araignée ^{(Love, love, love•Bite, bite, bite•Kill, kill, kill)} 21:53, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Not a problem. I'll just touch you and walk away. ;D Russ Meyer ^{what schlock} 00:40, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Okay, how about a truce (Since this is getting dreadfully long and my archive monsta is hungry). You can touch, but nothing else, and no one gets killed/eaten/infested with larvae. Deal? —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 02:22, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

No. ;D Maybe? =] (Feed The Beast.) Harvey Dent ^{i'm thinking, i'm thinking!} 02:55, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Castella de Aguada

Could I request you to revisit the failing? See User_talk:Pyrotec#Mumbai_forts. I have ordered a book that would help in beefing up the content. Yet to get it, so therefore paused. =Nichalp «Talk»= 19:31, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure if it's regular protocol to do it, but I suppose I can put it on hold - I'm doing this on behalf of User:the ed17, on leave, who told me to close it as "fail" if no contributions were made before December 14, which was true. I'll be willing to re-open it for you. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 19:37, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, there isn't really a protocol for GAN's - it depends on the reviewer. :) Nichalp, I will keep checking that review and I/we/whatever won't fail it until you get your book, alright? However, if you've improved it and I haven't replied, it probably means that I haven't gotten on... Anyway, cheers! (Ed's "at home" account) Allanon ^{♠The Dark Druid♠} 20:07, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks guys. I'm really caught in a tight position. RL pressures + a few GAN noms and 2 FARCs to save. Quite a balancing act to put on this week. :( =Nichalp «Talk»= 11:20, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Yep. I know how it is, Nichalp - I don't much time between piano and study and essays and whatnot. Good luck with your GA. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 20:43, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Merry Christmas. Holiday huh? I go to my G'ma's house in Bristol which seems to be the family crossroads. Chubbennaitor 17:10, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Merry Christmas! For Christmas, I'm going to my cousin's house. Also, I'm getting a cell phone!!!!!!!!!!:-) I just auditioned for Beauty and the Beast and I'm pretty sure I got in!--What!?Why?Who? (talk) 21:54, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Good to hear! Btw, WWW, you don't have to indent your first post. Only the following ones. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 21:55, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

Seasons greetings!

Chamal ^talk is wishing you Seasons Greetings! Whether you celebrate the Winter or Summer Solstice, Xmas, Eid, Diwali, Hogmanay, Hannukah or even the Saturnalia this is a special time of year for almost everyone!

Spread the holiday cheer by adding {{subst:User:WereSpielChequers/Dec08}} to your friends' talk pages.

Sorry to have to template the wishes to you guys, but I'm kind of short of time. Got to get it done quickly, make some useful edits and get lost ;) Chamal ^talk 11:37, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

No! Don't get lost Chamal - whatever would we do without our little Sri Lankan punk to set us straight? :P —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 00:43, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm actually thinking of 'getting lost' for some time. Maybe get into a semi-active state. Got my exams coming in a few months and editing here is taking a lot of my time. Chamal ^talk 02:35, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Aw, really? :( We'll miss you, pal - but life is life, and it does get in the way sometimes.

Hope everything turns out great! —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 02:56, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. But I wasn't thinking of completely stopping (not now at least), just going to be less active here. I'll be here whenever I get a chance. It's kind of hard to exist without editing for a few days ;) Chamal ^talk 03:03, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Y —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 17:45, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

FOUR things!!

A know this is a lot, so please feel free to reply to one thing at a time.

Thing I

If you are either a firm friend of mine, have signed my autograph book, are a member of WPTC, or are someone I simply like or admire:

Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! is wishing you a Merry Christmas! This greeting (and season) promotes WikiLove and hopefully this note has made your day a little better. Spread the WikiLove by wishing another user a Merry Christmas, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past, a good friend, or just some random person. Don't eat yellow snow!

Spread the holiday cheer by adding {{subst:User:Flaming/MC2008}} to their talk page with a friendly message.

• 
  A cookie to promote WikiLove!
• 
  A glass of milk, to wash down that cookie, and to promote more WikiLove!
• 
  Don't forget to put this on top of your Christmas tree...

--Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 18:19, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Whoa. Thank you, Dylan - I wasn't expecting this. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 20:23, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

You were qualified to receive the package because you signed my guestbook. Probably one of the biggest benefits of signing it. :-) --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 21:09, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Thing II

How do you think you would fare if you were to have an RfA at this moment? --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 18:19, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

I really can't say, Dylan. I barely know you - and a quick look through your contribs really can't tell me much. And, frankly, I don't think I have the experience (I still feel like a newbie, even though I've been here over a year) to give you a quality assessment. I would recommend you consult User:Balloonman - he is very experienced in that field. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 20:31, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Still? Wow. That's the last thing I'd expect to hear from an avid adopter. Don't worry, I'll take your advice by contacting Balloonman (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) about the matter. --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 21:09, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, not like that. In some areas, I feel very confident - in some areas I feel like a pro, and in others, I need more time. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 21:11, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Thing III

How do you create that template for when people post comments on your talk page. --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 18:19, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Create this subpage - User talk:Dylan620/Editnotice. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 20:26, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 21:09, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Thing IV

When you find the time, do you think you could please create a logo for me? --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 18:19, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

The top one, I think most of us have done. Chubbennaitor 19:32, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

 Doing... —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 20:26, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

How would you like it? Exactly like your sig, or plus/minus a few accessories? —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 20:28, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Please cut the words "Contribs" and "Sign!" in my signature. Do you think, if you know how, you could map "Dylan620?" "Dylan" would link to my contributions (Special:Contributions/Dylan620), and "620" would link to my guestbook (User:Dylan620/guestbook). Do you think you could make "Dylan620" bold, and in Helvetica font? Also, I would have a slogan: Schoolboy by day, Wikipedian by night. The result would look something along the lines of this:

Dylan620
Schoolboy by day, Wikipedian by night

--Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 21:09, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

On second thought, I've changed my mind about the mapping, but it would still be cool to have everything else. --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 22:08, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Are you sure? I've found out how to map it through a quick search at MediaWiki. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 23:16, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Hmmmm... on third (and hopefully final) thought, I'll think that over for a while. I'll let you know when I've made up my mind. --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 23:23, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

I'll turn down the image mapping. The links desired are already here. --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 23:52, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

One last thing - would you like it to reflect, like mine? —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 23:54, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

(e/c)Here's two for you to choose from:

• 
  Without the reflect.
• With the reflect.
  With the reflect.

I'll delete the one you won't use. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 00:12, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm for the one without the reflect. Thank you for all your help, Pianista. :-) --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 00:43, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

My pleasure. Enjoy! —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 00:45, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

So...

We can make as much blooooooody murdr episodes if we want? p.s. how am I doing with my edits?--Spittlespat 00:08, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

No. That's why I gave you the link to my blog, Spittle, so you can chat with me as much as you like there.

And your edits have improved very much - though I would like you to read WP:OVERLINK, WP:TRIVIA, and WP:ORPHAN first. Basically, you shouldn't add links that aren't needed, add trivia sections, or add orphan tags to unreferenced articles (orphaned articles are ones that aren't linked to very much). —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 00:12, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

It's kinda weird how I like Johnny test a little... anyway I thought of a new idea edit while you talk, but I think you already new that...--Spittlespat 00:14, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Knew what, Spittle? —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 00:16, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Knew that you should already edit while talking...--Spittlespat 00:17, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh yes. I do that very often.

Have fun out there! :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 00:18, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Just wondering did your piano teacher go to Juliard?--Spittlespat 00:19, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Nope, but he was a concert pianist when he was younger. He even went on a concert tour in Europe. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 00:22, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

wow! My teacher went to juliard, but she has never been on a tour.--Spittlespat 00:23, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Yes - he retired in his thirties, though, to take care of his family and start teaching. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 00:25, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Well actually, My teacher went on tours... but it was in America. Gotta go, I'm going to eat dinner!--Spittlespat 01:00, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

All right. Enjoy your meal. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 01:01, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Alright, I'm back...--Spittlespat 01:25, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Okay... —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 01:26, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

I noticed that your timeline is a little similiar to mine... (could lapianista be this kid's next door neighboor? JK)--Spittlespat 01:29, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Timeline? You mean timezone? —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 01:31, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: User:David Fuchs/Guide to featured writing

Not at all. I haven't made significant changes to the essay since July and I certainly haven't copyedited it; any fixes are welcome :) Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ^(talk) 03:52, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks - gnomes act on impulse. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 05:12, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm in ur PNGs

Optimising, in case you wonder what the racket is about on your watchlist (if you have them watchlisted). — neuro^(talk) 04:03, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Oop, I thought most were yours, turns out they weren't. Ignore me! :P — neuro^(talk) 04:05, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Ignoring... :P —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 05:12, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for the misunderstanding about changing categories.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I changed the Category New York City actors to New York actors, as there were too few actors. I am inexperienced in this technical field, I did not intend any vandalism. Can you direct the New York City actors page to New York actors?

Thanks

Saguamundi —Preceding unsigned comment added by Saguamundi (talk • contribs) 00:10, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Actually, I can't. It's a category, which shouldn't be redirected to another article in the mainspace. It would be better to find articles to add to the category - it's blank now.

Sorry for any misunderstanding. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 00:15, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Userpage

Can you give my userpage a good look? Kalajan 15:25, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Sure - perhaps later today. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 16:33, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I've fixed the userboxes - just tabling it out. Is there anything else you would like? :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 19:10, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Well the background and, you know make it look kind of proffesional, thanks a lot though.

 Done - you can change the colors later by changing the html numbers (e.g., "#EFF8FF") to something else from the list here. :) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 19:31, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks a lot. Kalajan 19:32, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Could you put this photo:

File:Sweet Chin Music.jpg

Michaels performing Sweet Chin Music on Chris Jericho

in the picture thing you put in? Kalajan 19:46, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh my god. Kalajan you were previously denied a userpage by TWO editors, so you came to a third!? You aren't ready for a nice design, considered you spend to much time in your userpage. ayematthew ✡ 19:58, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Nd also could you create a logo for me? I know I'm demanding quite a lot but plz. Kalajan 20:02, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Imatt, are you going to block me for it? or report me? I don't see anything wrong with it. Kalajan 20:03, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

We're building an encyclopedia, not editing a Myspace. ayematthew ✡ 00:23, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Wow. I wasn't aware of this.

I'll have to side with iMatt - why don't you contribute more in the mainspace for several months? It's not that we're denying you the right to a userpage; I just think that you should get involved in a few projects first, perhaps spend more time in the mainspace. Too many new editors here get more interested in their own userpages than building the encyclopedia. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 01:03, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

I think your popularity is having an inexplicable effect on editors, forcibly converting them to myspacers... :D Icy // ♫ 01:14, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Now, now, Icy, this is a serious conversation... <.< >.> You think? —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 01:16, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Hahahahahaaaa... Right now, I wanted to know if I went too crazy with this. Eh? Icy // ♫ 01:36, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Actually, that's pretty good. Plots should be short and succinct - not too bad. (Sorry for the delay, juggling between blog and wiki, here. ;) ) —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 01:43, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

(@ Icy) I agree. Oh, the shame, Pianista! The SHAME!

(@ Icy) Nope, you did not. :)

(@ Pianista) Psh, blogs. Who has a blog? :D Allanon ^{♠The Dark Druid♠} 02:14, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

This is getting piteously off-topic...

Your b****. Any more about that, and no more "happy bedtime" for you. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 02:18, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Eh? Whose b**** are you? bibliomaniac15 04:24, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

That's none of your beeswax. —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 04:44, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

LOL. bibliomaniac15 04:57, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

I made the icy-hearted, steely-exteriored, I'm-a-meanie 'crat "LOL"? Hm. Women have untold powers once we've captured the hearts of men, I suppose... —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 05:04, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

(<-) Bad people (male and female alike), you made me choke muffling my laughter in French class while pretending to research Versailles... PublicIcyhyo (talk) 14:37, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Talk pages were a place to relax like a coffee brake at work that can contribute to the encyclopedia but not always. Chubbennaitor 20:51, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi La Pianista, I've passed 1000 edits a quite a long time ago (3 days), could you make a logo thing for me? Kalajan€₣ 18:28, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

This is the only warning you will receive for being a cute little boy.

WikiCup notice

The 2009 WikiCup will begin on January 1, 2009. The first round will run through March 31, 2009. For more information on this tournament, read the "about" section on the main WikiCup page.

This year, we have a different system in calculating points. At User:Garden/WikiCup/Submissions, you will find information about submitting your article (and other) work to earn points. Each contestant will have their own individual subpage for submitting completed work to us.

This year, User:ST47 will also be running one of his bots to calculate mainspace edits and read your submission subpages to calculate the point values you receive based on our scoring chart.

Questions or comment? Ask at the talk page or go directly to Garden or IMatthew's talk page. Good luck and Happy Holidays! -- ayematthew ✡ and Garden. 13:53, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Am I always late for this? Chubbennaitor 20:56, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Do you want to enter, Chubb? Because I'm going to withdraw from the competition, and you can take my place. Tell me soon if you are interested, before I tell them I'm withdrawing. Chamal ^talk 14:21, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Aw, really? Real life in the way, again, Chamal? :(

On the other hand...if Chubby doesn't accept, I have one less opponent! :D —La Pianista ^(T•C•S) 21:59, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I but I still can't force myself to completely stop editing. I need to stop sometime early next year. You have a pretty much easy group, only real challenge is Shoemaker's Holiday I think. Ed is not so lucky, though :) Chamal ^talk 01:28, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Chamal... :( I hope that (as long as RL can stand it) you reconsider...even if you do just a little editing...twice a week.....................*sad face* x 1000000.

O_O (just looked) You know that you aren't in the best group when you recognize four usernames in your group right offhand... and guess what: Ryan is an admin with 20,000 edits, and Howard and Rlevse have three featured things each...I might not make it through! :O Oh well lol!
