Heya Sango!

Hi, it is me, Spawn Man the humble yet really great & awesome! ;) Anyway, I have a question. How the heck do you get screen shots saved onto your hard drive? This is what I've done so far:

1)Taken screen shot using PRINT SCREEN or ALT+PRINT SCREEN.
2)Been able to paste it to a WORD document.

I wanna be able to paste it to one of my drives, such as C: drive. Then I would be able to edit it, then upload it onto Wikipedia etc. But so far I can only get it onto a stupid word document. Any info would be great, as I notice you have a couple of screen shots on your user page. Thanks Sango! Spawn Man 00:23, 21 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks!!

For your help on the article that I mentioned to you earlier. Footnotes and References are a complicated portion of Wikipedia to me right now, so I appreciate you helping clear it up! You are the best, why cant every admin be as helpful as you? If you need anything PLEASE let me know! Thanks again for all your help. Stubbleboy 00:58, 21 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hiya again!

Hiya again!

Hiya again Sanngo! I was wondering, if you had time of course, if you could change the GA picture here to the same background as my user page. If you did everything the same as when you converted the FA star (casue the colour there was better), then that would be awesome! I'd ask for the A-class & B-class too, but there aren't any pics for those lol! Thanks Sango. You rock! Spawn Man 05:20, 22 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Exce-al-lento! Thanks once again Sango... Gosh at this rate, you should be an admin! Oh darn, too late.... ;) -- Spawn Man 10:29, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

User boxes:

Hi Sango! I have a query, if you're available or something... On my user page I've started experimenting with a new user box section underneath my "about me" section. However, I can't seem to get 3 columns running down. For example:

User boxes
----------
[]  []  []

In case my awesome graphics rendering awed you too much ;) then you should know that the little suares were supposed to express small columns of user boxes. If you could help in any way, I'll do the adding user boxen part if you create the column outer shell using the example user boxes there, then I can then add the rest my self. I'm trying to spruce it up so I can get like an award for the deisng or something, if you can actually get those? In any case, this is only if you have time. I'm so sorry for bothering you all the time with user page fixes & changes. I'll get out of your hair if you ask.... Sorry, Spawn Man 10:49, 24 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Ohmigod, you rock

For being an awesome friend, an awesome designer & for being awesome in all your awesomeness, I give you your own Graphic Design star! -- Spawn Man 23:36, 24 September 2006 (UTC).Reply

Thanks you soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much Sango for everything you've done for me. If there is anyway I can repay you I will gladly comit hari kari or something. You have my friendship forever & I promise I wont bother you ever again... Thanks so much Sango! Spawn Man 23:36, 24 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Except for saying, what the hecks going on there, about my user boxes. They're sorta going all over the place for no reason, & I'm kinda confused. If you could swing me in the right direction I will do the work... Spawn Man 01:02, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
I'm thinking, maybe I should delete the user boxen, as they seem to be causing too much trouble? Your recent edit to my page is sort of wierd cause the user boxes are down the bottom? Do think it would be better if I simply deleted them? Thoguhts... Spawn Man 02:10, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
You seem to have fixed them now though... :). I really wish I was as skilled as you with your html. And ohmigod, why are you on here fixing my crap when it's your birthday? Shouldn't you be out with your family & friends at a steak house or something before seeing a birthday movie? Spawn Man 02:12, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Happy Birthday

I hope you have a nice 15th birthday & don't do anything that guy wouldn't do.. I think. Have a good one Sango! Spawn Man 23:40, 24 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Happy Birthday (yet again)!

Have the best of birthdays, Sango my friend! —Mirlen 21:05, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

A very happy birthday to you Sango!! Have an awesome day! Cheers --Srikeit (Talk | Email) 19:46, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Happy Birthday, Sango! Sorry I couldn't get you the big scrumptious cake Dakota sent you, but I do have a slice of authentic Viennese cake of the highest quality. Enjoy! :DMirlen 21:05, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the cake, Sango — it was a favor that needed naught to be returned, but thank you! It's really good to hear from you again! Reality-wise, school's started and keeping me busy, but generally I'm alright. Wikipedia-wise, I'm trying to find time to start on the tasks I've set up for myself. How is it over from your side — taking care of yourself (both reality and Wikipedia-wise)? —Mirlen 03:41, 26 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Aw, thanks Sango! It wasn't required to remember my birthday, I didn't make it public info, so you didn't need to get a gift, but I appreciate your delicious ice cream. I will eat it while doing the math homework I'm supposed to be doing right now. :P (But yeah, I'm doing the same — editing bits of Wikipedia between homework time; multi-tasking you might say, but for a very short while though.) —Mirlen 02:02, 27 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Mr. Lefty's RfA thanks

Hi, Sango, and thanks for supporting me in my recent request for adminship, which succeeded with a final tally of 70/4/4. I hope I can live up to your expectations, and if there's ever anything you need, you know where to find me! --Mr. Lefty Talk to me! 00:20, 26 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Green lemming?

File:Green Lemming.JPG
The green lemming, but this can double as a birthday wish!

Hiya Sango. Per the discussion at the Esperanza coffee lounge, we've thoguht to make an Esperanza mascot. I came up with the idea of a lemming (plus my fave pic on wikipedia!), & I even tried to colour it green! Not very well though! Anyway, I was wondering, after your birthday, you might be interested in placing the Esperanza logo on the lemming's belly etc so that it can be used as an official logo. Thanks Sango & have a very happy birthday too! Spawn Man 04:24, 26 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Awesome again. Hopefully ESP will accept it... Spawn Man 23:49, 27 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Mahawiki

Hi dear Admin,

This is to bring to your notice the wiki-feud I've been having with User:Mahawiki for almost one month now. It started with the Belgaum page which went to mediation, warnings were handed out to both parties, and when Mahawiki's incivil ways continued, Admin:Bluyugen handed him a warning and then a block. Find that [1].

I do not want to turn the clock back and go through all those content disputes again. Infact, I dont want to present to you the details of any content dispute we've had. All I want to present to you is the brazen incivility and personal attacks being committed by User:Mahawiki either in the course of his content disputes or even simply just out of spite.

All the diffs(exhibiting his incivility and personal attacks) I provide below are from AFTER, I REPEAT, "AFTER". ADMIN BLUGYUEN INTERVENED, WARNED ALL OF US, AND HANDED MAHAWIKI A BLOCK.

Please find below dozens of instances of blatant incivility and personal attacks by User:Mahawiki either on me or on User:Dineshkannambadi and all Kannadigas in general. His remarks are in extremely bad taste and counterproductive resulting in undermining of the good faith efforts of the other editors to carry on editing their articles.

While I dont want to go into each and every diff and explain it, just to give you a sample of his incivility, he has made edits where, even if only in jest or sarcasm, he makes atrocious claims like, I am on a kill Mahawiki mission, that User:Dineshkannambadi is the Kannada (Bin) Laden(sic). In another edit, even if only for jest(which I certainly dont find amusing nor appreciate esp., when it comes from him), he has threatened to sue me. He has called us cultural TERRORISTS, losers, notorious, shameless etc., etc. He uses the word vandalism like one would use 'Hi' and 'Hello'.

Find all the above and much much much more in the diffs I've provided below. Whats worse is his antics are going unchecked because Admin:Blugyen who knows about our feud is on a wikibreak and Admin:Sundar whose intervention I've sought more than once, is busy with other things(I presume, in real life) - which ofcourse, I dont hold against either of them.

But wikipedia will be a poorer place if brazen incivility like this goes unchecked for weeks simply because many admins dont know about it or the ones who know are by force of circumstances, too busy to deal with it.

I request immediate and harsh action on Mahawiki.

Once again, let me remind everyone that in the links below, none of them pertain to any content disputes. I belive in dealing with the content disputes on the relevant talk pages and dont usually bring it out on user talk pages.

Infact, I have even not listed below, the atrocious claim he made a couple of days ago that I had deleted and later undeleted an article. Also not listed below is his blatant removal of {{fact}} tags I had added in a couple of articles without even clarifying or providing a citation for the claim which I had tagged. Also not listed below may be umpteen other instances of incivility and npa violations on his part that I might have missed.

All the diffs below deal purely and only with his brazen incivil comments and personal attacks not just on me, but on User:Dineshkannambadi and also highly respected historians like Mr. Suryanath Kamath et al(who have been cited in some articles by Dinesh) whom he has trashed and dismissed in the most uncivil manner possible.

Apart from this he also makes disparaging remarks on Karnataka and Karnataka politicians who he keeps claiming are oppressing and torturing Marathi speaking people in Belgaum. This is not a content dispute, this is plain nonsense and insanely belligerent language.

His incivility apart, he has made it a habit and a routine to go around all over wikipedia branding me and Dinesh as 'Kannadi' vandals bent on Kannadizing all articles we touch. Ask him if we have included any uncited material or if we has ever cited any references for his numerous claims or whether he has taken it up on the article talk page instead of on a random user talk page. His answer will be negative. And yet, that doesnt stop him from going around shouting that we have been vandalising articles!!

Anway, I dont want to veer this towards the 'content disputes' which is a whole different matter altogether. Content disputes can always be discussed and agreements reached. Let me present to you just his brazen incivility and personal attacks.

Here we go -

Hi Sango, sorry I missed your birthday. Happy belated birthday all the same! --Kyoko 18:42, 28 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the dessert! I love mille-feuille, but oh, the calories... Have you ever tasted it? The name literally translates into "thousand leaves" or "thousand layers", referring to the many layers of thin pastry that make up the desert. I guess the concept is something like baklava, but with an entirely different taste. They seem to call this dessert a "Napoleon" in the U.S. for some reason. I appreciate your gift, and its no-guilt, virtual calorie content. Thanks again! --Kyoko 19:31, 29 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

On meta.wiki

There has been a imposter who used your name to vandalise meta.wiki. Please note, that upon your request, I can move the fake account so that you can recreate one with your name. Ciao, M/ 21:32, 28 September 2006 (UTC) (bureaucrat on meta.wiki)Reply

Sango, a request

I noticed you had a discussion about the removal of the Umbranet article. Because of the grounds that it was some kind of ad or whatever, an IRC network (and actually more community serving than many other IRC networks.....!!!). This has no grounds totally. Did you notify that there are many Wikipedia articles on IRC networks?? See the link:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:IRC_networks

Please be consistent and delete all of them. Or bring the Umbranet article back. I wonder why you didn't brought up any further arguments and deleted because of a few people more voted for removal? Can you please bring undo this, or be consistent with all wikipedia articles related to IRC? Because there are much networks which are in here for ad-reasons. Umbranet merely contained information (just compare the pages..) and was linked with the bands (Epica, Afterforever, Within Temptation) which you BTW can verify on their official pages etc. I like to state that there was absolutely no ground for deleting this article and I'd like to see it back. Preferrably by undo, so I don't need to recreate and fill up the info. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.28.202.244 (talkcontribs) 13:41, 30 September 2006.
