ArchivalYet again, you can find older talk in the archives. Thanks to everyone who supported me. --ElaragirlTalk|Count 02:05, 5 January 2007 (UTC) You are back
Yay, she's back! Me jumps up and down with excitement. Hope RL is a bit better. Cheers, Moreschi Deletion! 08:40, 5 January 2007 (UTC) I, too, am deeply joyed that you have returned. I hope your life has turned around for the better. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 13:56, 5 January 2007 (UTC) I could say some lame thing about being so happy that you're back, but I won't. I'll just say that I know those pains don't go away quickly, and that I'm here if you need someone to lean on. Cheers, ✎ Peter M Dodge ( Talk to Me • Neutrality Project ) 17:24, 5 January 2007 (UTC) Replying to your queryI haven't gone anywhere as of yet. However, until this situation is resolved, I will be restricting my editing to the Rfc and Arbcom. Once it is settled I will make a decision about remaining. And it was wonderful to see your name on my talk page. I hope things are improving for you now--you were in my thoughts. Jeffpw 11:24, 5 January 2007 (UTC) TutorialI've seen your deletion tutorial, it's very nice. Can I interest you in helping with rewriting/clearing up our actual policy and guideline pages? Several them are in dire need of a touchup. >Radiant< 12:49, 5 January 2007 (UTC) TeacupHave you met Guy? I think you two might get on well together - you seem to have the same views on civility as applied to trolls, etc. David Mestel(Talk) 09:56, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
Welcome Back!Welcome back, Elara. Good to see you around. God knows we need your wit here. DoomsDay349 03:23, 7 January 2007 (UTC) Hi ElaraI'll email you:). Nina Odell 02:40, 8 January 2007 (UTC) A barnstar for youHey, you're back.So instead of fighting the hordes out there, you're deciding to engage them here? Good luck. (Personally I think the ones here are crazier. We're all loonies here.) ColourBurst 07:05, 9 January 2007 (UTC) Wikiproject DeletionHi. I have enlisted in your project. Where can I read pages pertaining to deletion policy; specifically, the criteria for inclusion and deletion? Rintrah 09:14, 9 January 2007 (UTC) Your noteYou're welcome. :-) SlimVirgin (talk) 09:50, 9 January 2007 (UTC) RE: Your final and only warningWP:Civil & WP:Assume good faith. Also, wikistalking just because you disagree with my AFD votes is not cool.Yzak Jule 10:01, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Sorry to hear - :(Sorry to hear you're not having a good time of it. Hope things perk up for you soon & you'll be back to your happy optimistic self. If you want to talk about anything, my user page is always open... :) Spawn Man 03:49, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
Direct-buried cableHi. Reference 2 in the article Direct-buried cable, which you created, seems to be wrong. Did you enter the wrong URL by mistake? This URL does not appear to support either of the referenced points.--Srleffler 05:56, 10 January 2007 (UTC) This is one of the reasons why it's a good idea to use the {{cite web}} and {{cite paper}} templates for references to documents found online. By filling in the template fields, you document what the webpage or pdf document was, and when you viewed it. That way if the content changes or goes offline, Wikipedia still has a valid reference, albeit to a source that is no longer available. Readers with an interest may be able to track down that reference elsewhere. (There is also {{cite book}} for books, and several other related templates.)--Srleffler 23:22, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
Martial art questionDo you mind if I ask what martial art style you participate in? If you'd rather I ask by email let me know or, if you don't respond I'll take it that you'd rather not say. No problem either way. Cla68 06:52, 12 January 2007 (UTC) Your userpage templateI just read your template that reads "This is a Wikipedia user page. It's not an article. Don't cry." That really gave me a good laugh. Thanks for making my day so wonderful!--Ed ¿Cómo estás?Reviews? 22:56, 12 January 2007 (UTC) Be honest....How long did it take you to get your userpage/talkpage to look so nice? It took me hours upon hours to get mine to look how it is, and it's just simple tables. :( .V. (talk) 05:42, 13 January 2007 (UTC) You rock. And what do I find, but you have very cool user pages, including your "i love me wall" (mine is still a box, including that nat-def-svc-spam-ribbon which I also have; I had to buy a new ribbon rack for that shit, do you believe it?) and your own very funny and candid "Elara:NOT" page. Which rocks more. You inspire me, shipmate. I must plagiariaze your creativity for my own pages, but not before applauding you and offering to do your dishes anytime you please. Just ask. Alpha Mike Foxtrot. David Spalding (☎ ✉ ✍) 02:24, 16 January 2007 (UTC) Glad to see your back in full forceIt's good to see you're back to your old ways. Put them in their place good, eh?. Hope you're feeling better, and all that. DoomsDay349 03:57, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
Despite WP:RS guideline being against blogs, that same guideline allows self-published sources to be included. Some notable people use their MySpace blogs as a way to announce important points in their career. As such, could a blog posting I described still be used as a reference? --wL<speak·check·chill> 06:56, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
On a scale from one to awesome...On a scale from one to awesome, you're pretty cool. In other non-sequitors, how do you smoke and run marathons? I mean, if there's some secret I should know, please do share. Not the quiet type 07:51, 16 January 2007 (UTC) Deletion tables vs archivingYou may find this comment interesting; you did comment that inclusionism is an integral part of MediaWiki software. Have a nice day :) GracenotesT § 14:57, 17 January 2007 (UTC) You helped choose Peloponnesian War as this week's WP:AID winnerMe and my CSD-ingI'd like to think so. Not only that, I actually have Firefox bookmarks available to watch every speedy deletion category - particularly those which I am most used to dealing with. So I can see every single article on CSD in a certain category at the touch of a button. Thanks for the compliment. Bobo. 02:32, 19 January 2007 (UTC) Problems with potential nationalistHi Elara. Remember me? Well, there is a user who removed huge part of Bosnian War article which was totally sourced by international courte judgements etc. I think it was classical provocation. The user is Ivan Kricancic and here is his contribution [1], Your advice? What should I do next? Regards. Emir Arven 02:37, 21 January 2007 (UTC) Actually, I was the one who reverted vandalism, whereas Emir Arven reverted back to a version which was unsourced/vandalized. And apart from that, it's quite ironic that Emir would call anyone a "nationalist", when it is quite clear from his/her contributions that Emir is a nationalist who blindly reverts other editors solely because they are a Serb or a Croat, and calls any edit that conflicts with his/her POV "vandalism. —KingIvan 02:58, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
That's right; anyone can see what happened. And they'll agree with what I said above. —KingIvan 03:13, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
I do believe that you are the person provoking and insulting - coming to some ransom talk page and writing shit about me. Get a life. "Ethnic frustration" is caused by editors like yourself, who blindly revert on the basis of ethnicity, and who provoke other editors by suggesting they are involved in genocide[2]. P.S. How can I insult something that does not exist? —KingIvan 03:23, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Spread your shit on bs.wikipedia - on the en, we don't take crap! —KingIvan 03:34, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
A smile for youThε Halo Θ has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Smile to others by adding {{subst:smile}}, {{subst:smile2}} or {{subst:smile3}} to their talk pages. Happy editing! After that nastiness above, I thought a smile would be nice :) Keep up your good work Elara, you're a star, and always remember, if they're shooting at you, you must be doing something right :P Thε Halo Θ 13:05, 21 January 2007 (UTC) what gets deletedI just put a note on GR Berry's talk page & on ProjectDeletion that you might be interested in.DGG 04:08, 22 January 2007 (UTC) ReplyI replied to your comment about deletionism at The Transhumanist's Virtual Classroom page. It can be found here. S h a r k f a c e 2 1 7 20:33, 23 January 2007 (UTC) Tidying-upElara, thanks for the tidying-up at Sr/M. I don't know if you realised that you changed the alphabetical order of the languages with your last change. Was there a particular reason or was it accidental? Hope you don't mind me following this up. --Opbeith 13:23, 24 January 2007 (UTC) Virtual classroomI've replied to your posting at User talk:The Transhumanist/Virtual classroom/Elaragirl, about deletion and deletionism. Walton monarchist89 13:50, 25 January 2007 (UTC) Thank you for your vote change. I am sorry if I did not do a very good job of establishing what I needed to up front. This is really my first article to carry from birth through the fire. I am glad it will get the chance to grow up. --Bill W. Smith, Jr. (talk/contribs) 03:43, 26 January 2007 (UTC) World's Smallest Political Quiz userboxYou may be interested in User:Audacity/Userboxes/WSPQ, which is a replacement for the old Political Chart userbox. The new userbox takes the two variables (economic and personal freedom), calculates which political alignment they place you into (Statist, Libertarian, Liberal, Centrist, or Conservative), and links your userpage to the appropriate category. Please reply to User talk:Audacity, as I will not be watching your talk page. Λυδαcιτγ 07:39, 27 January 2007 (UTC) Adminship - interested in your perspectiveI read User:Elaragirl/AdminCriteria today, as I'm interested in becoming an admin at some time in the future (although I don't yet have enough edits) and am interested in what other users expect of a prospective admin. I have a couple of questions (you don't have to answer if you're too busy; I appreciate that working on articles is more important).
My suggestions would be thus - first of all - learn the bigger picture of Wikipedia. EN is only one piece in a bigger puzzle. Several rules apply to the encyclopedia that are not even defined on the site. Examples include m:Foundation issues, m:Privacy policy, and m:Checkuser policy. Secondly - the value of diplomacy cannot be understate in adminship. No one is going to like everything you do, and you had better expect at least a small handful to be completely and utterly opposed to everything you stand for. How you handle this will determine whether you crash and burn or whether you rise above. Everything else, like edit counts, XfD participation, whatever, it's just fancy window dressing that people like to cite when they're opposing someone they don't like and want to look good. Cheers, ✎ Peter M Dodge ( Talk to Me • Neutrality Project ) 01:06, 28 January 2007 (UTC) EL:TEACUPHi, Elaragirl. I seen your edits on userpages before and admire User:Elaragirl/Teacup. I am a little new here, I have been editing for about two weeks and am seemingly familiar with wikilinking, placing of templates, warning messages, et. al. I was wondering if it is illegal to adopt your policies to my userpage? I can modify them from there. Thanks. Real96 00:47, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
