Helpme

You have helpme on your user page. What kind of help do you need? --Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Contribs) 00:48, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

On Template:SpongeBobCharacter, in which i have been working on, to use for SpongeBob character pages, but some may not have an image. If you look here: Mrs. Puff. do you know how to fix this? -AMK152 00:50, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

I am not exactly sure what to do with that; I have tried testing several different options, with no success. My best guess would be to list the helpme tag again on your talk page to see if you can get some more answers. --Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Contribs) 01:10, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

I fixed it for you. --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 01:20, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank-You! -AMK152 01:08, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Helpme 2

Hi, you left a helpme tag on your userpage. What's up? --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 00:59, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Images

Read WP:IMAGES. The source is an url, like google.com but you can't find images there. I removed the warning but please read this. You most likely found them on the image search. You need an url there. C a rm el apple 13:37, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

This is how i get the images: I watch SpongeBob episodes on my computer. Ipress pause when I see a picture I could use on Wikipedia. I press "Print Screen/SysRq" to take a screenshot. I go to my paint program and press paste (or control-V). I crop the Image to show all that i want shown. Then, I go to Wikipedia and click "Upload file." You should then know how the process works afterward. -AMK152 14:12, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

O.K. In that case put a message in the summary that you watched them on your computer or something because you can upload images on google search to. C a rm el apple 14:40, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay. -AMK152 14:43, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Helpme tag

Please help me-see my talk page. Bring me out of confusion! (Images situation) What am I doing wrong? or am I right?

What do you need help with? --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 14:36, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

We've cleared it up. C a rm el apple 14:40, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay then. In future, could you put {{helpme}} tags on your talk page please? --JD ^{don't talk} _{email me} 14:42, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I was about to tell him that. C a rm el apple 14:47, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay, will do. -AMK152 14:48, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Simple English

Do you contribute a lot in Simple English? C a rm el apple 14:58, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Not very much. Why? -AMK152 14:58, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

I need writers for the Wikipedia Signpost to write a report abotu the Simple English Wikipedia......and I didn't know if you contributed a lot but I new you had a page on simple. C a rm el apple 15:04, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Back

I'm back! ForestH2 t/c 21:17, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Welcome back! :D -AMK152 21:49, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. ForestH2 t/c 21:50, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome. -AMK152 21:50, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Yo...

Yo, dude...you are AWESOME! The way you have all your stats on a page all organized and everything (by month and day and even your top days, to boot) and how you keep track of all that...I applaud you, my friend. :-) Doodoobutter 23:43, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. -AMK152 00:42, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Wikiproject SpongeBob SquarePants newsletter

What do you think about sending out a SpongeBob SquarePants newsletter every month? Julz suggested it; but he's not on Wikipedia as much and since I'm back, I think it would be a good idea. Do you know how to run a bot? Or do you have one? See Wikipedia:Wikiproject SpongeBob SquarePants/Newsletter. ForestH2 t/c 20:59, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I do not have a bot, and I don't know how to use one. But, the letter is a good idea. -AMK152 21:59, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

That's okay. I have requested a bot; and if not I'll get my own. I've started the letter and yes will try and publish every month on the first day. ForestH2 t/c 22:28, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm already editing it. -AMK152 22:29, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Good. I'll let you know about the bot status whenever I get it. ForestH2 t/c 22:30, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I'll be able to get my bot by the end of the day most likely. Just to let you know, I won't be here on Spetember 1st, so I won't able to use my bot to spam user talk pages of members of the SpongeBob SquarePants watchlist. Would you mind spamming them? It'll take a little longer; because you don't have a bot, just use AWB and you should be fine. ForestH2 t/c 22:34, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I will put it up. It wont take long. If we use template-style for the letter, then we can just post {{Text}} I can just go down through the list. -AMK152 22:41, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I should have AWB, soon to also due this when you are not avaible. Once again, I'm not sure wether I'll be able to run my bot; it's running but I have to wait for a response from an authorized bot person. ForestH2 t/c 22:43, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I have asked an authorized bot user to approve the bot. Waiting on response. ForestH2 t/c 22:57, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Goverment

I have also thought of a goverment for the project when it gets bigger. Of course, it would have only a couple rolls, the President, Vice President, and a couple other things and people would serve 6 months or something. Of course, the project needs to be a lot bigger in terms of people in it to start that. ForestH2 t/c 00:18, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

That is a good idea! Perhaps when we get to 20 or 30 people, we could start it? or just start it so the terms last Jan 1 - June 30 and July 1 - Dec 31? -AMK152 01:51, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes. I'm thinking 20, we have 12 right now.....3 people on the board, of course we (AMK, and Forest) would most likely start off as were sort of on the board right now; making new desicions. Let me know when we get to 20. Maybe a little after 20....Can you think of the rolls they should serve? ForestH2 t/c 01:54, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Wikiproject SpongeBob SquarePants/Board. ForestH2 t/c

I cant think of any other rolls, but we can also have lists so we know which people have AFD or VP to help with the articles. Also we can establish PagePatrol, in which a person is assigned to a group of pages such as: Characters; Bikini Bottom;Games/Media/etc. maybe 2 patrols for each season? (8 patrols) that would make 11 patrols total, but i could supervise Characters and Bikini Bottom. -AMK152 02:00, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Oh yes, and I could do episodes. Add your thoughts on the Board page above and we'll see what we can do. I think page patrol is a good idea but I'm also thinking of adding a Historian who remembers what we did over there season. And maybe a recording secertary....I haven't heard anything about my bot yet...it's still waiting for approval though you can check out User:Forestbot. ForestH2 t/c 02:02, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Good Idea. In addition to the board, we can have "jobs" (which includes PagePatrol) and others like someone to keep track of FA/GA/AFD. Also someone to patrol the images; and others. -AMK152 02:04, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes, add any jobs you want to the page. ForestH2 t/c 02:05, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

The page patrol is going to serve on the board, and I'm thinking he/she might be in charge of watching FA/GA/AFD and images. What about a secertary? ForestH2 t/c 02:09, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

What would the secretary do? -AMK152 02:10, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure. Do you like the voting procedures I've set up at Wikipedia:Wikiproject SpongeBob SquarePants/Board? ForestH2 t/c 02:13, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Yeah...a bot can really tally votes? Will the votes be secret until the bot tallies them? -AMK152 02:15, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, pywikipedia runs bots I think that can do that. No, they won't be secert..ForestH2 t/c 02:26, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Well if the bot doesnt work, we can have a page some the like this in which those can vote at:

==VoterName==
*President: Vote
*Vice President: Vote
*Historian: Vote
*Page Patrol: Vote
**Episodes: Vote
**Characters: Vote
**Places: (e.g Bikni Bottom Krusty Krab) Vote
**Images: Vote
**Featured articles: Vote
**Good articles: Vote
**Articles for deletion: Vote

People can cope the above and post it on a "Voting Booth" page. Then we can set a time limit for the election. Then we can talley them up. -AMK152 02:33, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

I've done that but let's change it to a voting booth page. ForestH2 t/c 02:35, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes. ForestH2 t/c 02:37, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

VP Problems

I had a similar problem to those which you described and I managed to find a solution. If you get a message saying that any .OCX's are missing or invalid, then this link may help: [1] - and its a lot easier to use this than to manually install the files and register them. Just download and run the file at that link, and VP should work. M a rtinp23 11:41, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! -AMK152 16:25, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Bot status

Forestbot is currently in a trial run which will be held October 1st, when the October newsletter is delievered. ForestH2 t/c 13:12, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello. ForestH2 t/c 18:02, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi. -AMK152 18:02, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

helpme

{{helpme}} what do you want aligned and where. I am glad to assist. —— Eagle

(ask me for help) 18:16, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

I got it further to what i want it at... i just want September 2006 to be on the same line as Volume 1, Issue 1. -AMK152 19:01, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay, nvm I figured it out. -AMK152 19:29, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Reply

Well, yes. Go ahead; and advertise on the talkpage. Elections officaly opened August 23, 02:03 (UTC) ForestH2 t/c 02:02, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay. -AMK152 02:04, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Vacation

I'm up for wikibreak from tommorow (August 23 to Spetember 3) so I trust you'll take care of the newsletter and board elections....ForestH2 t/c 02:19, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay...have fun! Is there anything that should be on the newsletter before finalization? -AMK152 02:21, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

I don't think so...in less something spreads in the next week. I might check in briefly on August 29th, but other than that; I won't be here. By the way, it is almost sure my bot will be approved. ForestH2 t/c 02:25, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

I'll be leaving in a few hours.....while on my vacation could you revert any edits by Iswatch19 to The New Leaf and Wigstruck? By the way, did The New Leaf already air? ForestH2 t/c 13:29, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay... I dont think so. I always watch the new episodes when they air. according to epguides, it will air September 22. -AMK152 13:35, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, Iswatch has watched it on DVD, though it's about an episode not a DVD. Yes, I think it's going to air Spetember 22nd also. I've just warned Iswatch. ForestH2 t/c 13:38, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

I haven;t heard of any DVD with that episode coming out yet. -AMK152 13:40, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Nethier have I. Have you put in application for the board yet? I am....in a couple minutes though I don't know which roll I should run for as I can only run for one. ForestH2 t/c 13:42, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

There are a lot of positions to fill in for. And we need a lot of people to run too. -AMK152 13:44, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I think I'm going to run for Vice President or President. ForestH2 t/c 13:44, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Note

After the Spetember issue is delievered we can start working on the October one, on Spetember 20th, or something but don't archive the newsletter until the October one takes it's place. ForestH2 t/c 16:01, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

When I deliver the September issue, ill also put it in the archive. the newsletter page will then be updated for October. Is that what you mean? -AMK152 16:07, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Don't archive it until Spetember 15th or whenever we start preparing for the October issue. ForestH2 t/c 16:12, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay -AMK152 16:30, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

After my bot is approved it'll update the newsletter every 15th so we can start working on a new one. I'm leaving to go on vacation in 15 minutes. ForestH2 t/c 18:02, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Okay. -AMK152 18:04, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:KKMenuMMABBV.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:KKMenuMMABBV.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 18:05, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

wikimood

Where do you get the wikimood gage?

I randomly found it on someone's userpage...I search for a page for it but couldnt find one. I will make one and link it to you. -AMK152 23:20, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Hmmm... it seems I just found it: Wikipedia:Wikimood. -AMK152 23:21, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

alright! thanks

ForestH2, and AMK152 13:07, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Opt Out List.

Reason

Yes, it looked to funny. ForestH2 t/c

And? -AMK152 01:57, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

I mean, if it looks funny, and I'm trying to improve it, why did you revert it? -AMK152 02:05, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Because your verison made the episodes looked like they aired half and hour each time when they only aired 15 minutes and they air back to back when they air. ForestH2 t/c 22:58, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Stuff

See my user talk page for more. Btw, you'll have to find someone else to write the October newsletter as I may not be back by then. FYI, my bot made it's first edit to Wikipedia:Wikiproject SpongeBob SquarePants/Newsletter. ForestH2 t/h/c 23:10, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Okay. -AMK152 23:25, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Actully, I'll most likely return but Btw, I've added that I've retired to my user/and user talkpage cause it'll be a long time before I return though I think I'll return though when I'm not sure. ForestH2 t/h/c 23:41, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Move of Lego themes

While you were correct in that it needed to be moved, in the future do not just simply copy/paste the text, as that does not preserve the edit history that's required for GFDL. Instead either request requested a move or ask an admin (if it's uncontroversial) if you cannot move it yourself using the 'move' tab. Mairi 16:45, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Okay. -AMK152 16:47, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
