Adoption edit
Here's your adoption official page. Follow the instructions instructed at the page. Now I have exams and it'll end tomorrow so I'll be a bit busy till tomorrow also going offline now. So you'll not get any reply today. But start working from today and Good Luck.--Pratyya (Hello!) 11:03, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
- Have fun, but you spelt adoption wrong in the title: "Adotion". -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 11:05, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
Just a note to let you know I fixed your addition of your userbox to this page - it was just a minor formatting issue! The box is now there at the top of the page. Thanks for making it up and adding it! - Ahunt (talk) 12:06, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks! I didn't know what was wrong with it, so I just got rid of it. Thanks again! --Hawk talk|contribs 16:59, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
Hello edit
Hi,
I'm glad you decided to create an account. Although you like to joke about being a Wikipuppy, make sure that the bulk (majority) of your edits go to articles, you'll earn a ton of respect from many other valuable contributors and also, administrators will also respect you greatly if you make most of your contributions to article space, it is also very rewarding, people will trust you with various tools, such as reviewer and rollbacker. If you need help with articles, email me. Try not to engage in large discussion. In the end, your X!'s Edit counter pie chart should look something like this. To minimize edits to user space (aka wanting to make a pretty user page, then email me so we can come up with a design (I'd recommend doing something that is quick and nice-looking). Anyway, welcome as a registered Wikipedian. Happy editing. WT101 (Chat • Count) 12:57, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for introducing yourself and contributing to Wikipedia! If you have any questions feel free to drop me a line at my talk page. As you know, I just graduated from my adoption program, so I am not an expert, but I will try to answer them best I can.
Happy Editing! |
How about getting started on some edits? edit
Hey,
I notice your adoption program is already started. Why dont you start off by trying some edits at Special:GettingStarted? :) I think that should give you some good experience with editing here.

Yay! edit
Wow, you created an account! I'm so proud of you! now we can work together editing! Prabash.Akmeemana 22:14, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
- Hehe... But I still have one question: earlier, in the comment after the one about the chocolate page being protected, why exactly did you call me "Sweetie"? Was it supposed to be a joke because of the chocolate? Lol :P --HAWK drop me a linesee what I do 22:55, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
- I was joking LOL, what is this some sort of Wiki-Date?!?! Prabash.Akmeemana 23:41, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
- Nice joke. And it is NOT a Wiki-Date, it is discussing... oh, nevermind. I was going to use some big words, but I couldn't think of any --HAWK drop me a linesee what I do 00:10, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
- So... You want to work on some articles? P.S I really want a barnstar from you Prabash.Akmeemana 00:28, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

A caution edit
Hi Hawkmist,
I went to check in on you and I must say that I'm very disappointed in you. You have barely made any article edits. You have to give up all this socializing and Wikipuppy crap. I understand you're under adoption, but you need to contribute to the encyclopedia, instead of posting on other users' talks: Guess who I am?...Look at me, I'm registered! You can't do that kind of stuff. I'll help you out as much as I can, but please get your article motor running . Happy editing. WT101 (Chat • Count) 04:35, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
- @Hawkmist: Yeah, I agree too. I remember someone saying recently that Wikipedia is not some sort of "social network". IMHO, it's alright to chat with your Wikipedia friends occassionally, but you must still remember that we are writing an encyclopedia, and this is not FB or Twitter. ✉→Arctic Kangaroo←✎ 04:45, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
- @WT101: I see that you spend a lot of time editing your userspace. Perhaps you want to focus more on articles? ✉→Arctic Kangaroo←✎ 04:45, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
- I am, just not getting to it yet. I have a bad habit of reading a page, ready to edit, and completely forgetting about editing, and just reading it. --PhoenixFire contribs 04:50, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
- Both of you, I know y'all mean well but shes adopted and still getting used to Wikipedia guidelines, WT101, I am disappointed in you for not listening to your adopters advise to Assume Good faith :) Prabash.Akmeemana 05:50, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

And the fire part is because near one of my relative's houses, there was a fire on a hill, and the hill had three crosses, and the fire just went around the crosses. They weren't touched. And they were wood! Lol, I don't care if you don't believe me, just so you know. --PhoenixFire contribs 06:09, 7 July 2013 (UTC)

You'll get your first test tomorrow. I'm slight busy today. So forgive me for today. Anyway how's WP going as a registered user?--Pratyya (Hello!) 09:47, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for July 7 edit
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Soft drink, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page America (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello! edit
Guess who? Also, you have a message at your Test Wiki talk page. 216.81.101.28 11:57, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
You have a new message! edit
Message added 05:42, 8 July 2013 (UTC). You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
Thank you for your comments edit
Hi Hawkmist. I realise that your comments on WT's talk page are with the very best of intentions, but it might be a good idea now to leave the rest to the admins. Such cases sometimes also attract the attention of other younger or less experienced users who simply prolong the issue with a risk of the page becoming more like a blog or a social networking site. Take care, and happy editing! :) Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:13, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
Two things... edit
Hello!
Just thought I'll point out two things:
- It's my WikiBirthday! See my user page.
- Two, when editing pages with VisualEditor, be warned that typing four tildes will "nowiki" the entire paragraph. Which means you have to make another edit to remove the nowikis. -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 07:27, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
Adoption test edit
Are you ready for test? if yes then message me. Good luck.--Pratyya (Hello!) 06:20, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
- A test?! Wow, it's funny how I never was adopted or anything like that. Hawk, you're lucky to have friends who are all experienced at wiki-editing. I didn't have that when I joined. :( -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 07:29, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
Talkback edit
You got a message on Numbermaniac's talk page! 64.231.241.16 (talk) 23:00, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
E-mail edit
Make your e-mail authenticated. I need to e-mail you. Gonna say something private. Quick. Also I've seen your answers. Do it quickly. I'm gonna stay hardly for 10-15 minutes.--Pratyya (Hello!) 13:24, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
- Why do you need to say something private? --PhoenixFire contribs 13:26, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
- I don't wanna say it to your talkpage. But telling you one thing. It's about the test.--Pratyya (Hello!) 13:28, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
- How is anything about the test private? --PhoenixFire contribs 13:28, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
- I don't wanna say it to your talkpage. But telling you one thing. It's about the test.--Pratyya (Hello!) 13:28, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
Yes. But mail comes after 10 minutes. So you may not get a quick response. BTW going now.--Pratyya (Hello!) 13:53, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
Design updated edit
Yeah I made some changes as you requested, see if you like it! Prabash.Akmeemana 01:51, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
Whoa! That's kinda cool! I'll make my modifications to it... --PhoenixFire contribs 01:53, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
Thank you!! edit
Oooh, thank you Hawkmist! Everyone is so nice here :) I'll be sure to sing out if I need some help!!Anoewyn80 (talk) 02:10, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
Test edit
Actually I've graded your test. Even the next test is too ready. I want a private discussion with you cause your result is just poor. That's why I need to talk to you privately. So please authenticated your mail. I'll send you a mail. Now I'm editing from a mobile device. So please don't ask for a reply now.--Pratyya (Hello!) 08:27, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
Well if you want me to tell you here I can tell you. Do you agree?--Pratyya (Hello!) 13:45, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
- It's okaay with me if you tell me here. --PhoenixFire contribs 14:47, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
- Okay, Hey Hawkmist, well when I was examining your answers I thought one thing. That you haven't read the whole policy. Anyway don't feel bad. I suggest you that you read the policy pages again. I've make the adoption page more easy for you. I'm saying just one thing that you'll not get 60-70% marks. Cause most of your answers are wrong or partly right. I have found just one answer fully right. So please read the pages again. I'm going to remove your answers. After reading you answer again.--Pratyya (Hello!) 15:00, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
- PS now I'm going. It's night here. But please read those pages again and then answer. Read every link that contains policy. Please. It's a request.--Pratyya (Hello!) 15:05, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
- Hawkmist, please also note that these questions are hypothetical, that is, a "What if this happens". If it is written in the question that "abc has happened", we assume that it has, and judge the question on the sceneario in question, not to think whether or not it has actually happened.

Status edit
Hey, do you have to manually type the status thing in or does it automatically work? I'm confused. -- t numbermaniac c 09:22, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah, you need to manually type it. It reads from /Status. --PhoenixFire contribs 13:26, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
- Cool page! May I ask you something? What was the change you made to Bono's article? Miss Bono [zootalk]☆ 20:28, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks. -- t numbermaniac c 22:27, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Miss Bono, I did nothing big, I just added a link. --PhoenixFire contribs 22:49, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
- How do you figure out what to add to te status? do you take it from the url? -- t numbermaniac c 02:32, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

Hawk edit
Your username is perfect for you. Hawk. Your edit count is running (may be flying) like hawk. I've to say you are fast. You are faster than me. So have this hawk. You are just doing great. Go on like this. Cheers.--Pratyya (Hello!) 14:00, 19 July 2013 (UTC) |
- Yay! My typing practice really did pay off! Actually, I thought of hawks, which are fast and brave, and mist, which is cool and calm, and I brought the two opposites together. Thanks! --PhoenixFire contribs 14:11, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
- I wish my edit count runs as faster as yours, but I just can't... :'( Miss Bono [zootalk] 21:03, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

- Cool lol. You'll notice that when you go to the edit CPU t again there'll be some stuff under the pie chart. Js pages are JavaScript pages created for enhancing pages. You can take a look at my stuff at User:Numbermaniac/common.js -- t numbermaniac c 01:30, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
No, I mean your common.js page. And don't you think some of my userboxes are funny? --PhoenixFire contribs 03:07, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
