I don't mind recomendations. Well, to a point. --Vidkillradiostar 00:04, 30 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Why are your daily mottos different from mine? Currently, mine is 42 and yours is the "editable nonsense" one. WTF?--Vidkillradiostar 15:14, 30 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

My Name edit

What was the inspiration for the name 'bobpalloona'? Frnchnuwav 10:23, 24 July 2006 (UTC)FrnchnuwavReply

My older brother came up with a funny name, Bob Palloona Pannopa, and so I've used it as my hidden identity since. Hopefully there is no one with that name, and if there is I'm quite sorry for taking it. --Bobpalloona 02:42, 25 July 2006 (UTC)BobpalloonaReply

Bob Pannopa is *not* a real person, according to a google search. He maaaayyy exist, though.--Vidkillradiostar 03:29, 27 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Ah, I see. Thank you for enlightening me. Frnchnuwav 9:08, 25 July 2006 (UTC)Frnchnuwav

Unblock edit

 

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reasons:

Wikipedia:Autoblock of 207.200.116.136

Request handled by:  Netsnipe   ►  16:16, 26 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

I've done absolutely nothing. I just went to fix a disambiguation page and sure enough I was blocked. It's very annoying to be wrongfully accused and not be able to participate in my favorite hobby. I would very much like to be unblocked, so please.--Bobpalloona 15:54, 26 September 2006 (UTC)BobpalloonaReply

You've done one thing wrong -- use AOL. With all due respect, stop whinging and read Wikipedia:Advice to AOL users. --  Netsnipe   ►  16:16, 26 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Vicki Peters edit

No, unfortunately I don't know her personally. The information in the article was just stuff I found while searching Google and the Internet Movie Database. If you have anything you'd like to add to the article however, please go right ahead. B^) Rglovejoy 15:30, 26 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Marilu Henner edit

Why did you edit Marilu Henner's bio and change her last name? Henner was not her birth name - Pudlowski is the last name of her father. nj--68.127.180.22 22:23, 28 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Her father actually changed his name before her birth and her siblings birth. Her actual birth certificate (which I've seen) gives her name as Marilu Denise Henner. What they have on imdb and currently wikipedia is wrong--Bobpalloona

Motto of the day edit

Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 01:46, 4 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (File:P2k_albums.jpg) edit

  Thanks for uploading File:P2k_albums.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 00:08, 21 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

I've answered your question edit

Orphaned non-free image File:P2k albums.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:P2k albums.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
  • If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
  • To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
  • If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014 edit

Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.

Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

This message has been sent by pjoef on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
