Hello, and welcome to my talk page. Click here to leave me a new message, or use the small plus sign next to the edit button.

By signing your posts with four tildes (~~~~), it will automatically leave your username and the time.

I'm not sure how to allow other people to upload files, but if you email me I'll be able to upload it. In the meantime I'm gonna whip up a logo, if yours is better we'll use it.

Templates

You can gank the templates from the sites you like and tweak them over here. You dont have to create them from whole clothe. Tmtoulouse 19:23, 6 August 2007 (EDT)

Well as long as you don't need to install a new extension for mediawiki you just need to pull over the nested templates and tweak. Tmtoulouse 19:26, 6 August 2007 (EDT)

You're in

Very persuasive arguement. Now I just need to figure out how to do it.


Re: Hi

I'm not too bad at wiki formatting... just give me a list of templates to make and I'll do them. I'm gonna make a few right now. George the Liberal 14:17, 6 August 2007 (EDT)

Hmm... I'll work at it.

Congrats

You're now a sysop for the leading source of liberal information on the internet.

Back

Sorry I haven't been around for a while, been pretty busy, I'll try to get some stuff done in the next few days. WillH 03:21, 26 August 2007 (EDT)

Yeah, I meant for lower level stuff, like putting the new logo up and such. I think I'm gonna try to start up a news section too, I'll do a little research and write the first article tomorrow. I'm thinking of doing it almost Onion-like but rather than being completely false, take actual news stories and just really stretch them to be liberal. We'll see. WillH 14:44, 26 August 2007 (EDT)

No, I meant I was going to change the logo. WillH 18:21, 26 August 2007 (EDT)

One of those schmoes edited without signing in so I have his IP... he lives in London.

Policy

I agree with that 100% discussion should be open and everyone can talk about whatever they want to. Sorry about not having uploaded the logo, been moving into a new house so I've been crazy busy and have been using the neighbors spotty wifi until I get my internet installed next week.

Nice! I'll be sure to do something with this soon. --EarningtonStonewall 13:20, 18 September 2007 (EDT)

Main Page

How's that? I threw it the article together kind of hastily, and it might be a little bit offensive, but it certainly is topical. --EarningtonStonewall 12:19, 27 September 2007 (EDT)

Hi

I have a question, how do i make it so that a user box inculdes the user in a catagory like, if someone put Template:UserAsia on his page, it would inclulde the user in a catagory of Asian users? Elassint 19:50, 6 October 2007 (EDT)

Three things...

1. Should i email WillH or should we just keep waiting for him? 2. Do you think i would make a good admin? 3. And just so you know, 204.11.191.254 is my schools ip address. I was the one editing from it. Elassint

I tried emailing him once, no response yet. I would have made you an admin already if I could, I am thinking of spending less time on this site myself now, but I will still be around to block vandals because there is nobody else to do it. Ajuk 15:22, 29 October 2007 (EDT)

I found out why we are getting spam

The reason is because if you click on the Create Account button it doesn't require you to enter a code that makes sure that you are a real human, so spambots can go in with their worthless spam. Elassint Throw things at me 16:28, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Earnington Stonewall

On the NY English Regents, one of my wife's students wrote that Of Mice and Men was written by Earnington Stonewall, instead of John Steinbach. I fell in love with this mistake, as it doesn't even come close to making any sense, and abopted it as a pseudonym. --EarningtonStonewall 10:24, 14 December 2007 (EST)

I'm having a lot of problems lately, please don't hesitate to block me if I'm causing trouble. -- Elassint Hi! :) 16:19, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

But why not block a worthless idiot for fun and exercise? --98.17.63.206 02:01, 13 March 2008 (EDT)

Elassint’s current behaviour is consistent with him being Bipolar. I don’t say that is the explanation. I’m not a doctor. Doctors and psychiatrists would be unlikely to give diagnosis based on a few posts without seeing the person involved. I feel unless we are sure he is responsible for his actions we should not punish him. If the above is the explanation for the difficulties he will quite likely get over this episode and later behave as reasonably as he did before. If this happens he should get back roughly as much respect as he had before. I hope he will see a doctor as medicines can frequently control this problem.Barbara Shack 08:42, 13 March 2008 (EDT)


Why did you block him again? -- Ryan  17:55, 14 March 2008 (EDT)

He was pissing me off! I know he can unblock himself anyway, just a warning to him not to carry on dumping stuff on the talk pages. AJUK talk 19:59, 14 March 2008 (EDT)
Yea, that would work most times, but you would be fighting mania. --98.17.63.206 20:10, 14 March 2008 (EDT)
That's it, he can't help it, it's mania, it's sudden, and it's (mostly) uncontrollable. And he won't always unblock himself, if he has a bad mood swing he may claim Ajuk "only got rid of a worthless loser moron". -- Ryan  20:44, 14 March 2008 (EDT)

I beg of you

So I would like to add a page of a person who really isn't famous and probably shouldn't have her own liberapedia page. But, she is incredibly liberal and said, (and I quote) "if I ever had a liberapedia page made, i would die happy." So, I feel the need to make her a page without it being deleted immediately. So, if I make a page for Sarah Barton, I beg that you don't delete it immediately. Wait at least a month. By the way, I am the one who blocked out religion. That was an accident. I apologize.24.208.252.139 18:04, 16 March 2008 (EDT)

The user made edits to AIDS and Cottage cheese which would have been considered vandalism on most Wikis. The user made an entry about an alleged anthropologist which was deleted because there is no evidence the anthropologist existed. This user has a bad track record.Barbara Shack 18:27, 16 March 2008 (EDT)

The fact that I'm telling you right now who the person is, why I am going to write it, and that I am apologizing about my track record should be enough to let me write one page. And I guarantee that I will never edit another page other than the one I am asking for permission to write without being deleted. Also, I have since deleted my contributions that have been considered vandalism.Suvburner 19:16, 16 March 2008 (EDT)

Can I be a Sysop?

I might get it lol -- Ryan  19:35, 18 March 2008 (EDT)

Remember hacking is against the law. You aren’t likely to gain from breaking the law. In the long run the owners of the computer will probably get back control. If the owners of the computer lose control they might shut down the wiki. You could get trouble with the police, your parents and your school knowing what you’ve done. Anyway you probably won’t find the password. Barbara Shack 06:35, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

Don’t feed the trolls

On the backup Wiki, I’ve blocked and unblocked myself several times. I’m a sysop on another Wiki as well as Ellasint’s Wiki and I once had a problem working out how to block a vandal while I imagined him damaging page after page. I wanted to familiarize myself thoroughly with the blocking procedure. I also checked to see what happens if I try to edit while blocked. This is what I got.

“Your user name or IP address has been blocked. The block was made by Barbara Shack. The reason given is Familiarizing myself with the buttons.


Perhaps when you block people you could make sure the reason you give isn’t entertaining. They will read it every time they try to edit. Barbara Shack 05:03, 25 March 2008 (EDT)

How about creating a new wiki and transferring Liberapedia there? We can be bureaucrats then. I don’t want to commit treason against WillH. If we don’t I fear some time this Wiki may shut down like Evowiki and what we’re working for could be lost.Barbara Shack 13:38, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

That's so funny because I was just thinking about starting a new wiki called "Laudapedia..." But we can't transfer Liberapedia because you need the root password and only WillH has that. I suggest waiting a little while longer. --Lyra Belaqua 13:46, 24 March 2008 (EDT)
You'd need access to the database server LP is stored on and the web server. It would be nearly impossible to do without WillH. --Lyra Belaqua 13:49, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

We can paste the articles from here there. Barbara Shack 13:54, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

There are 3,474 total pages in the database. 1,783 is just the number of articles we have that are "content" pages. Yes, I suppose we could move the important others by hand. But what if WillH comes back to find we've all gone? --Lyra Belaqua 14:02, 24 March 2008 (EDT)
Well, it would be his fault for not checking up on the place, but i think we need to be patient and wait till June at the earliest. I'm going to create a backup Liberapedia @ scribblewiki in case the place shuts down or something. -- Elassint Hi! :) 14:05, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

We need to sort out what types of advertisements we will accept on the new Wiki. We have said on Liberapedia that Communism doesn’t work. We can compromise with capitalism by accepting advertisements. We can’t accept advertisements from fundy Christians looking for converts. We can’t accept advertisements for bad things that damage the environment. We can’t accept anything that goes against out principles.Barbara Shack 17:27, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

1. We are not moving. The ScribbleWiki place is just a backup. -- Elassint Hi! :) 17:37, 24 March 2008 (EDT) 2. ADVERTISEMENTS?! Why would we need those?

They're "Ads by Google." We can't control them, the Scribblewiki site and Google (the google) does. --Lyra Belaqua 17:42, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

I hope WillH comes back and we won’t have to move. He may have lost his home in the fires. The present situation isn’t OK. Ajuk has to do more work than he wants. I’ve reduced his work by checking for vandalism giving him details whenever I come across anything. In the long run that’s not a good idea. If WillH can’t get away from his pressing problems long enough to give us better sysop cover here we may have to move. Then we’ll have to ask about advertisements.

By the way will all the articles have to be transferred by hand? Is there a simpler method?Barbara Shack 18:31, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

The date

Are you serious about taking over? Was it an April fool? Please tell me because I need to go to the IT Centre if there is no improvement over Sysop cover. I'm not sure about the legal situation if you take over. Using a computer in a way that the owner doesn’t want is a criminal offence. None of us know what WillH wants. You can perhaps assume that he wants you to protect the Wiki from vandals. You can perhaps argue that you are doing what WillH wanted when he made you a sysop. If I see the Computer Wizard at the IT Centre the chances are I can get us a new Wiki with cool graphics and no legal complications.Barbara Shack 08:29, 1 April 2008 (EDT)

I suggest making an archive of your talk page. And cut it off right above the previous section (Move the wiki). Yours, Lyra Belaqua lalala 16:22, 3 April 2008 (EDT)

Yes you should archive your talk page when at the most its 50 sections. -- Elassint Hi! :) 16:24, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
