Welcome aboard, CalculatinAvatar. I've enjoyed your edits so far. Keep it up. --[[User:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 02:54, 28 December 2005 (EST) | |||
: Also welcome. Additionally: [http://battlestarwiki.org/index.php?title=Launch_tubes&curid=2481&diff=20987&oldid=18340&rcid=18277 good eye]. --[[User:Day|Day]] 04:27, 28 December 2005 (EST) | |||
== DeZervAdLy lOw? == | |||
Don't be so hard on yourself. I think I was struggling to understand Photoshop (back when it didn't have a number behind it) when I was your age... I also had to walk uphill in a snowstorm in my bare feet just to ... --[[User:Watcher|Watcher]] 06:27, 30 December 2005 (EST) | |||
:That was just an attempt at wit. Self-esteem issues are for losers. :-X --[[User:CalculatinAvatar|CalculatinAvatar]] 07:36, 30 December 2005 (EST) | |||
== We Have a New "Peter Farago"! :) == | |||
With Peter's recent promotion to administrator, I was hoping someone would come along and nail me when my edits get sloppy and inconcise. Welcome to the team, and never apologize for being picky here. :) --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 11:47, 30 December 2005 (EST) | |||
:Slow down a bit, cowboy! The major modifications that Peter is doing for the revised Cylon pages can get really confusing if we dive in to edit them while he's moving, so steer clear of them until the framework is up. Else, Peter may have to revert your edits in order to get the pages started. Don't want to have you do things twice. Thanks! --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 14:49, 30 December 2005 (EST) | |||
:: You're implying that, because Peter is an Admin now, that he'll stop re-editing your edits? I don't imagine that the paper work is ''that'' bad. *wink* --[[User:Day|Day]] 20:36, 31 December 2005 (EST) | |||
:::You're right. In fact, it will probably be worse. The Concision Fairy is now a Concision Deity. :) --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 10:59, 1 January 2006 (EST) | |||
:::: Hah! Hahaha! Indeed. Heh. --[[User:Day|Day]] 20:13, 1 January 2006 (EST) | |||
== ROSE BOWL == | |||
''BWAHAHAHAHAHA!'' I hope you watched the game, man. Oh wow. I'm so jazzed I'll never go to sleep again, ever. Did you catch the statement Matt Leinart made after the game? I thought it was in bad taste, personally. Mack did the right thing, I think, in making appriciating USC's team the first order of business in his trophey speech. --[[User:Day|Day]] 01:18, 5 January 2006 (EST) | |||
:I watched the game, but I turned it off after the game itself was over. I'm sure I'll catch Leinart's comment later on tonight in an article or the like, but you might not get to read about the "You're wasting my time!" a USC fan said to that Texas defensive back leaving the field with a broken arm. --[[User:CalculatinAvatar|CalculatinAvatar]] 01:26, 5 January 2006 (EST) | |||
:: *jawdrop* Wasting his time? Jeez! That's... so classless. Anyway, Leinart said (a close paraphrase, here), "I still think we're the better team." I mean--I'll leave it open to possibility that, if we were to do best of three or five or something that USC might beat us more than we would beat them, but--honestly... How, based on that one meeting, can you say something so conclusive? ''Anyway'', nice edit with the parenthasis removal over on the Galactica running tallies. --[[User:Day|Day]] 01:52, 5 January 2006 (EST) | |||
== Challenge == | |||
I challenge someone to make a page at [[Template:List_of_templates]] that consists only of a redirect to http://battlestarwiki.org/index.php?title=Special:Allpages&namespace=10 so that [[Help:Template]] can have its section 'List of Current Templates' replaced with an instance of that template. You could also find some other way to include the content of the specified page inline in [[Help:Template]]. --[[User:CalculatinAvatar|CalculatinAvatar]] 01:55, 6 January 2006 (EST) | |||
:Take it up with the mediawiki people. This is an explicitly acknowleged limitation of lists vs. categories. --[[User:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 02:06, 6 January 2006 (EST) | |||
::So it's just impossible, then? That makes me feel better at failing to do it, I suppose. I thought the difficulty was in getting it to take the "namespace=10" argument while still being an internal link. I was sort of hoping there was some force-redirect (even to apparently "external" links) or cute way of getting a <nowiki>[[foo]]</nowiki>-style link with an argument delivered. --[[User:CalculatinAvatar|CalculatinAvatar]] 02:43, 6 January 2006 (EST) | |||
== TOS Grammar Patrol == | |||
The grammar/spellchecking of the ENTIRE TOS category is '''awesome'''. Although not explicitly listed as goal of [[Battlestar Wiki:Original Series Article Development Project|OSAD]], it is something I've always hoped might get done. I really appreciate you and [[User:Grafix|Grafix]] checking those over. Now that most of the TOS articles have images and some content, this is the type of fine-tuning that they need. Thanks! --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 15:13, 4 April 2006 (CDT) | |||

:Thank you. I hate to be picky but [[:Category:Articles for grammar, spelling, and organizational review]] would be better. --[[User:CalculatinAvatar|CalculatinAvatar]] 22:12, 27 April 2006 (CDT) | |||
