Hulloo... Please tell me I'm not obligated to turn my country's entry into this "factbook" thing. I rather like it the way it is. --Galdago


Thanks for wikifying my Goverment Roster! :) --Holy Empire of the Water Cooler 05:37, 12 Oct 2004 (GMT)


No problem. I'd appreciate it if there were no more Iansisle reference boxes - the one I have on my national page is really more than enough. I just feel that my country and its characters are not the sort of thing that can really be summarized by an MTV-style point thingie. Anyhow, sorry if I seemed snappish earlier - that's not how I meant to come across. I had only been up for about fifteen minutes. --Iansisle


Awe, I'm sorry. The table of contents, when it was shown, fit in fine. When you move to hide to table of contents though, the actual body of the page would jump up that whole space and become hidden beneath the map. I just put it back so it wasn't overlapping. It was a bit squishy. --Fodian Federa 02:05, 24 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Uhm, yes, I will remake the ages.... heh.... :/ I'm gonna make some additions in my articles now, so I will find a better age and stuff. --Antartis 12:39, 15 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Fris - about the language entry, I'm planning to expand it much like the other Aperin languages, which is why I've given it a seperate entry rather than just including it into my own, which looking at the way it is going will become very very large very very quickly. I just haven't thought about how I'm going to talk about it yet. --Weegies 11:36, 17 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Thanks J. I'll get to that, but it might be a while. I'll be in poll worker class tomorrow night and want to go back to focusing on the NS Times a bit more. Thus far I've just been testing the waters here ... in fact, I'm not very pleased with the folks here. This isn't about burnout as you suggested, but I don't really see no point in explaining it further. Mikitivity 04:47, 14 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Thanks for sorting out the Celedonia/Celdonia category thing. Much appreciated.


I like what you did to Binnenhof --Knoot 19:49, 19 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Your help in creating my category and correcting minor mistakes (I'm still trying to learn how to use the wiki) are much aprectiated, thanks. --Hell Bovines


Ok then. --Anatania 14:34, 19, Oct 2004 (GMT)


Feel free to code up more resolutions. I was actually thinking the links to NS would be fine for now. Melissa (Tuesday Heights) will have my PDF for the floor last resolutions to be put to a vote, and I've included links to all of the debates. I'd be happy to email the word files if she doesn't upload them, and you can take the info from there. Good night. Mikitivity 04:55, 14 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Thank you for the language table in Dutch. It is very nice. --Knoot 15:19, 14 Oct 2004 (GMT)


It is, Antartis. Ok, I edited the EU link for --Soviet Union--, and will use that one from now on. Regarding Soviet Union references in the articles, it is clear enough (I think) that I refer to my nation and not in the regions. Well, after all, there are no region references in my articles (except for EU) PS sorry if i somewhat messed the user talk, I cant figure our how to use it so well... Were can I learn using it?--Antartis 16:27, 14 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Fris, I'd like to keep the disambiguiation (sp) page clean so I am moving the Soviet Union entry to Soviet Union (region) --Knoot 18:01, 14 Oct 2004 (GMT)


BIteland: thank-you for doing those final touches on the UDP page, I only had time to put it up


Thanks for the tips on my Beanworld page. I thought I might want to remember over time what decisions I've made, but maybe you're right. We'll see, I'll keep track of it until I get annoyed or fall behind, and then I'll probably come around :)


D'oh - that'll teach me not to read the instructions :). Sorry; feel free to delete at once. EDIT: and I remembered my sig! really. Iansisle 02:02, 23 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Okay, Okay. I will query in the discussion page if I feel inclined to change anything more than punctuation errors Dual Merve


thanks a lot, i'm still in the process of writing the page obviously but the maps look way better now. thanks again. if you need help with anything let me know. oh, and check out my submission for the logo and tell me if you like it, mmkay? Saminorr


thanks for the tips re. back-links Fris. I have no idea what you're talkinng about, but I'll do my utmoist to learn :-)


NP. I'll wait. -- |Knoot|KNOOtalk 15:35, 22 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Thanks for the help. I didn't want to make it my user page, but I did know how else to start my own personal page since I didn't think anyone would be referencing my region or nation. :) -- |Mouse|KNOOtalk


Didn't see that you pulled them originally, just thought it was missed and tacked one on.-- K-stan


I started to edit the page, but didnt write what i wrote and did not have any more time to write anything else. The same goes to the two leaders; theyre intentional, but i havent done them yet


I've made one minor change and one major text change to the Passed UN Resolutions page. It looks good, and tomorrow I'll start trying to add more links, but I wanted to make it clear what is a "resolution" and what is a "proposal". The difference should be that resolutions are proposals that actually reach the UN floor for all members to see. Mikitivity 02:24, 19 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Acronyms: Frisbeeteria: Just as a request ...
Frisbeeteria: We're trying not to establish a practice of redirecting short acronyms to longer pages
Frisbeeteria: there are too many people who use the same or similar ones
Frisbeeteria: we'd rather see [[Meritocratic Central Bank|MCB]] in the text of the article.

It is my understanding that this redirect will be changed to a disambiguation page when something else using the same acronym is found, so there should be no conflict. -- Wilem Engelking 08:08, 24 Oct 2004 (GMT)

Thanks for that redirect, I didn't realise you were condensing the titles. You got the code wrong on the redirect though ;) And thanks for the offer of help. However, I've been a member of the main wikipedia site for long enough to know my way around, so I hope I can get by ok :)

As for condensing my page down, I didn't realise we were trying to save space like that. I figured I would structure my page as a scaled-down version of the kind you see on the main wiki site. Plus I like the way the main wiki does monarchs, with their own page and the little box showing their predecessors and successors. But if you want me to condense it, no probs, I'll just delete it and move the important stuff to my main page. -- Falastur 01:24, 25 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Nice. I only did character pages for just two of my Whittier characters and I listed the rest on the whittier page. Do I have to make pages for them too? What does it mean to condense a page? Vetobob 06:13, 25 Oct 2004 (GMT)


By condensing I meant putting the information from several pages onto one page, as I was advised to do by Fris (hope you don't mind me calling you Fris). -- Falastur 07:53, 25 Oct 2004 (GMT)

(Frisbeeteria: "Please tell me how I got the code wrong on this. I used the built-in Move tool, which automatically creates a redirect on the old pagename")

/Shrug. When I looked at the page it showed the Redirect message, it didn't actually redirect the page. I looked at the code and noticed you missed off a : between #REDIRECT and my page name. I put one in, and now it works fine :)


Thank you for all the assistance.  :D Daistallia 2104


No its fine, thank you very much, I'll probably be posting a few more things which may require editing as well, since my technical expertise is sorely lacking.


I wonder if I have this right. I think this is the right place to respond to the note you left for me. Or should I have added on to it where it was? Anyways, glad you liked the Goddessness article. Hopefully someone will be able to add more facts to it somewhere along the way. I hadn't heard of the Cult of Sin, but I don't think that anything I wrote neccessarily rules it out of being a true NS religion. Peace, JAKG 19:46, 27 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Thanks for the welcome and advice. =)


Thanks for the help and advice, I was just about to get to making my factbook section. ;) Patoxia


Re: Foxgirl Subspecies: Alright sorry, I did not see that.


Re: fridge owls: Eh, Loop probably knows more about the origins of the joke than me. Why don't you come over to our forums and ask him. --Kelssek 01:21, 28 Oct 2004 (GMT)


10-4 I figured I would add them just in case. also the Fridge Owl history is on the EP forum for ya.


Hey, just wanted to thank you for tirelessly working to maintain NS wiki. I had no idea how to work the categories thing, or that it existed at all...yeah...thanks. ~ Zoogiedom 00:39, 29 Oct 2004 (GMT)


Thanks for the alterations to my stuff ^_^ Midlonia


Thanks for the assistance over the past few days. Bweezy
