The contents in the box

Hello I would like to know how to put one of those contents box in an artical thanks Richardson j 01:07, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

If there is enough content on a page one will appear automatically. But to make one appear you need to know the "magic word" which is "__TOC__". —Braydie 06:57, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Inquiry

I don't like my username here. Is there some way to change it or must I develop a new one? Is this where sockpuppetry comes in? I don't think I want to do that. Should I just leave it alone?Schizo Master 14:30, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Well, there is a way of changing it. But, it involves annoying Sannse about it. You could just create a new username and redirect your old userpage to the new one. And declare that your old account won't be used. —Braydie 14:31, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. I'm not sure it's worth the trouble but I'll think about it.
I'm pretty sure I want to do it without annoying anybody. (BTW, thanks for letting me annoy you!) I think I know how to create a new username but I don't know how to either redirect the old to the new or declare that the old one won't be used. Or how to transfer the information on my old userpage and usertalkpage to the new ones. I suppose I'd just go to the old pages and copy and paste to the new ones if that was possible.

Pee review clean-up quest

Hi, sorry about that mess earlier, I just get really frustrated with the amount of stuff on pee review that should have been removed, or should never have been there in the first place. I'm convinced that the pee review system could be streamlined to the point where all articles on it could be reviewed withing a week. Perhaps if after reviewing an article a contributor put on some kind of a "reviewed" template which would send the review page to the article's discussion page then it would reduce the amount of loiterers clogging up pee review. If the page's author wanted more help they could always put it on pee review again. What particularly annoyed me was the fact that there was one page on there that had sat with the "thanks" template on it for four weeks yet had not been removed. While I appreciate you guys are pretty busy, if at least one admin could be given the job of taking things like that off pee review it would be a big improvement. Apologies once more for any extra work I gave you earlier. Kelpan 15:27, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

No worries, I've just remembered that you stayed blocked. Me and Codeine actually talked about it on IRC, I guess that we were actually too busy to unblock you. Really sorry about that. I agree, that things should be over and done with in a week, but people just sometimes don't have the time to review all the time. I must be honest with you, I always forget to check Category:Deletenow which I shouldn't, but as you said, I'm currently in charge of the whole maintenance stuff (WIPs, ICUs etc). Someone said about how redirects weren't getting dealt with lately, so I set up a page in my userspace to put all focus on this, er this can be found here so you can get an idea on what my proposed idea will look like (or something like that anyway).
So what I propose is this, but of course, only if you want to do it, is that I create another page in my userspace to deal with out dated pee reviews, say if an article is deleted (shown as redlink on the pee review page, therefore being no article to review) or say someone places the {{Thanks!}} on an article you can add it to the userspace page. I'll check it everyday to see if you have added anything else to it, but if I'm preoccupied with something you may have to give me a little nudge on my talk page. Don't worry about getting the reviews that are a month old, I usually remember to get rid of these.
I may even ask around to see if anyone minds if I change the time limit for a review, from 1 month to 2 weeks. I'm sure no one will mind.
One last thing, don't edit a review page when reporting these outdated reviews - it causes it to be bumped to the top. I also have an idea of how to remove the articles from the list if they have a {{Thanks!}} template on it. Thanks. —Braydie 15:36, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Don't worry about the ban; If I can't survive 2 hours without this website I've got serious problems! Yup, that sounds like an improvement, I'll report any clear cases for removal on your page.Kelpan 16:19, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Ok cool. Just report any pages to User:Braydie/pee. Maybe just bullet point a list.. or something. —Braydie 16:22, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Just had another thought on this. The problem with pee review is not that the time limit for removing articles is too long, it's that it's measured in the wrong way. An article sits on pee review for a month to get on the "needs reviewed" page, someone writes something about it and it stays there for another month. Articles should get a time limit for being on pee review before being moved to the discussion page regardless of when they were last edited; if anything the one's that have been reviewed should be removed earlier and the untouched ones granted a stay of execution. Don't know how easy this would be to implement but it would make a massive difference.--Kelpan 16:45, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Hmm. I see what you mean, I reckon that I could set up a page somewhere that would allow articles that have been reviewed to be removed after a week, how about that? —Braydie 16:48, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

That would work, but it would need to be universal and automatic, not just something applied occasionally. You could have a "reviewed" template for people to apply which would set this in motion. --Kelpan 16:55, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Well, a reviewed category is already being used, I'd just have to make a table so it comes up like the ICU/NRV tables. —Braydie 17:03, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Ok, so when people review an article they could just put this at the bottom and you or another article-fairie will come and take it away a few days later? --Kelpan 17:07, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

It's already set up. If you put numbers in that pee review table it already adds Category:Reviewed to it. Go check ;) —Braydie 17:10, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Great! How long will it take you to move 328 articles? --Kelpan 17:12, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Nah, that isn't from the ones in pee review. That's all the articles that have been reviewed using the pee review table since we set it up. Just by working it out now, there are less than 50 that haven't been reviewed with the table. —Braydie 17:19, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Well reducing Pee review to 50 articles would make a massive difference. The only other thing to consider is that there are some cases where the table is not appropriate; whether in case of a very poor article, an audio clip, some users simply not liking the table format etc. Some provision would eventually have to be made for dealing with these cases. In the mean time, I'm sure everyone would be pleased to see the tabularly reviewed articles removed from pee review. {{Thanks!}} --Kelpan 17:29, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Ok, and of course thanks for bringing up new ways to do it. I'm currently revising how to do it using the table. I've got it all in the right order and just waiting to see if something else can be done. But, of course I need Specialist equipment to do that. I promise (coursework is on atm) that this should be dealt with by the weekend, if not then at the weekend. Plus, I must get you something... —Braydie 17:32, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Best of March

You might want to put up a notice about that around VFH since it's nearly over and nobody voted yet :) ~Jewriken.GIF 10:44, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Proxy

Braydie, it seems that my entire street has been banninated for "open proxy". As a result, I can't make any changes to typo errors that I find. Some accountless spammer from down the road killed off the street's editing access, changed his IP address and repeated the process. It's annoying. Right now, I'm using IP-Hide. Is is possible to allow editing if the user is logged in, or should I stick with IP-Hide? (smeeagain)

Hey, if this was done quite a while ago - then I should be able to fix it. We've got a new feature that allows us to block unregistered users, but let the ones that are signed up, like you, to edit. What is the IP address? —Braydie 12:03, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

The IP address(es) all begin with 218.186. One, 218.186.10.12, was banned for "hohoho". The rest were banned for "open proxy" and "bye". Mhaille's also blocked one of the others.

I've blocked that one differently (the hohohoho one) Try editing normally now. If you can't just say again. —Braydie 12:01, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Ah yeah. Well, I don't mind really. *cry* —Braydie 19:36, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi Braydie

Just a note of thanks for all your help getting my account changed and straightened out. I really appreciate it. Thanks, from the previous Schizo Master. Math Poet 11:00, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

No worries. —Braydie 11:24, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm too smart to be fooled

Yes .
Sorry for the confusion Richardson j 12:08, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Well, that was just decided somehow. Why what's wrong with it? —Braydie 12:09, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Nothing wrong just i'm wasn't fooled Richardson j 23:16, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Ah, I don't think many people were fooled. Just a bit of fun really. —Braydie 11:18, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Easter

I think one of the most blasphemous things to do would be to just completely ignore it's existence. Instead making a reskin celebrating Hanamatsuri (the day Buddha's birthday is celebrated on in Japan), or the signing of the Entente Cordiale. Something like that.

Maybe some kinda fusion with Jesus and Cobain? Both sacrificing themselves.. —Braydie 11:20, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Oh my God. A reskin celebrating the death and rebirth of Kurt Christ would be totally tasteless/hilarious. Ok bye. /me runs away.--<<Bradmonogram.png>> 11:24, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
And to think, that was the least tasteless idea we had. —Braydie 11:25, 2 April 2007 (UTC) 11:25, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
I think that's good, April 8th, the day Kurt Cobain was resurrected.. or whatever - Tompkins (at school)
Yeah. Also, gutted, I've got two weeks off hahaha. ahem. —Braydie 16:37, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Alright, well since you have all of this free time, how about you get to work on this reskin? I mean, you shouldn't have any trouble, since you have all this new free time. Right? Good.

Well, the thing is. I already have. I mean, the writing anyway. What's the reskin actually going to be of? I was thinking maybe some information site... but then couldn't think of any. —Braydie 07:52, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Why'd you delete Ghostface? I want it back! It was so mean of you to (sob) huff that-that poor, innocent little article! It never did anything to you! Beezwax 23:19, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello

Hello Braydie, you blocked me for this reason: Braydie is in ur recent changes frowning at ur edits. I'm a good editor, I've made two articles which are still around (one of which you edited yourself) and I hate being blocked. And 2 weeks! come on, thats a bit tough. I only swore in the edit history. I didn't incite murder or anything. So please, I beg of you, The Right Honorable Braydie, to reconsider and unblock me. Thank you. Hyper Girl

Well, it was mainly this edit's comment. But ok, if you're sorry. —Braydie 18:04, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Thank you! Hyper Girl 11:35, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey Braydie!

I've FINALLY figured out how to categorize and make my my Homemade Userboxes available to the mainstream! Here's an example:

Hopefully, all my Homemade Userboxes will appear here. One of them already has!

No worries. I also added a little fix to the template, <br clear="all"> doesn't make text appear to the side of it, i.e. it starts any text after it, after the template. —Braydie 18:06, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
