Edit/toolbar buttons[edit]

When you get the chance, could you email the buttons to me. joebeaudoin@joebeaudoin.net. Thanks. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 13:08, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

Done --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 13:40, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

Buttons up. You may need to do a hard refresh to see them on the edit page, however. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 19:21, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

By the way...[edit]

Per Shane, we need an image for the future {{duncehat}} template. :-) Thanks! -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 14:21, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

"Main Page"[edit]

I got the CSS and the new section all coded. All you need to do is copy the new code to the main page and it should work :-) --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 16:22, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

External Images[edit]

Will be enabled on the next upload of the settings. I just set the setting so it should work once more. :) --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 16:55, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

Richard Dawkins takes on a jerk[edit]

Hey man. You must be a bit stressed with all this style updating and reformatting, so I thought I could help you relax. Check this out. Here we have Richard Dawkins take on an evangelical "Christian" who turns into a jerk really fast. I think Dawkins won the argument too, though it's rather grey. Now, I have to agree with you. Richard Dawkins is the MAN when it comes to science, and I'm glad you idolized him. I respect him quite a bit myself, and I appreciate his scientific commentary. Happy viewing! --Homeworld 15:31, 26 August 2006 (CDT)

Thats a clip taken from a TV program he did called The Root of All Evil? ^_^ Its not been repeated in the UK as far as I know but you could probably download it from somewhere, it was a great program. --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 15:48, 26 August 2006 (CDT)

I'm interested to see the full program. That 6-minute clip piqued my interest. That site I got it from has bits and pieces from the show, and maybe the whole thing. I already watched another clip called "Teapot Atheists." Striking commentary. Dawkins says that everyone is an atheist since many no longer believe in the gods of Egypt or Rome or Sumer. By the way, I decided to read about James Randi (I already know about Gervais and Sagan). I must say, I respect anyone who can reveal that a "faith-healer" is a sham. I have no patience for people who sell their faith like that Popville guy did. Has the world no shame? I recently added an "Idols" section to my own userpage along with some video clips of them. Thanks for being the inspiration for that! ^_^ --Homeworld 16:09, 26 August 2006 (CDT)

Cause you told me....[edit]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MERCIFULL! --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 06:24, 27 August 2006 (CDT)

Thanks :) --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 07:07, 27 August 2006 (CDT)

Do'h[edit]

Hah. My bad. :-P --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 13:35, 3 September 2006 (CDT)

Whats your bad? --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 13:39, 3 September 2006 (CDT)

quote. --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 14:20, 3 September 2006 (CDT)

Oh right ^_^ --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 16:02, 3 September 2006 (CDT)

Server thing?[edit]

Any word from the person you were in contact with regarding webhosting? Last Shane told me was that the person was on vacation, but should have returned by now, and I think you e-mailed him again, correct? -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 21:55, 11 September 2006 (CDT)

Update? --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 21:38, 8 October 2006 (CDT)

Customising MediaWiki[edit]

How is it done?!? This is the only Wiki(that i'v seen) with compleetly diferent colors and styell can some one tell me how it is don(you can put it on my talk page)?JosephK19 01:50, 30 September 2006 (CDT)

This wiki still has a theme in the usual wiki colours but a new desiend was created by some members of this wiki to give it a unique look and feel. The MediaWiki site has some great tips on how to do all this. --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 05:19, 30 September 2006 (CDT)

Thanks JosephK19 07:23, 30 September 2006 (CDT)

CNP vs virus[edit]

Hey. I reverted an edit you made on Atlantia (RDM). Just to let you know, the Cylons used backdoor programming to essentially command the CNP to turn off or seriously disable itself, leading to their victory. Viruses are an old tactic of theirs from the Cylon War, and are used if they can hack into a Colonial ship's computer network (as done in Scattered and Flight of the Phoenix). But the Cylons didn't primarily win with viruses, just the CNP. The talk page there, I think, says it all. --Spencerian 10:27, 6 October 2006 (CDT)

My RFA[edit]

Thank you for participating in my RfA, which passed with a tally of 7/0/0. I can't express how much it means to me to become an administrator. I'll work even more and harder to become useful for the community. If you need a helping hand, don't hesitate to contact me. Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 20:36, 8 October 2006 (CDT)

No Need to Apologize![edit]

I don't mind if you edit my userpage, especially for something as important as a red link fix. In fact, I actually had a message up for a while encouraging other users to edit my page, but it disappeared in a series of events I cannot fully comprehend or remember. But, point is, I really don't care if my userpage gets edited. Edit some more is you like! :) --Homeworld 20:50, 18 October 2006 (CDT)

iTune Screen Caps[edit]

Thanks for fixing them. I was going to go back and do that but lose my internet connection for the last hour or so. --FrankieG 19:51, 16 November 2006 (CST)

Your Last Box Thing[edit]

I really dig it. Any chance that you can point me to a link or something so I might have my own? (If you want to remain unique, though, I understand :D)--MikeDanger 21:02, 24 November 2006 (CST)

What do you mean my "last box thing"? Feel free to nick the code if you want thuogh, I probably nicked it form someone else too lol --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 05:26, 25 November 2006 (CST)

I believe he's referring to the last.fm box. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 05:36, 25 November 2006 (CST)

Oh right. Yeah sure then you can use it, its in the gallery on last.fm :D --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 06:32, 25 November 2006 (CST)

DS?[edit]

"I'm not having a go at all people that download, just the idiots who obviously dont read the descriptions properly, reviews etc. I thought everyone knew that the BSG episode was delayed until Sunday due to the Thanksgiving holiday?" - That you ;-) ? MatthewFenton 05:03, 27 November 2006 (CST)

Yep, are you the one who had a go at me back? lol --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 05:05, 27 November 2006 (CST)

Nope, hehe.. I didn't bother leaving a message there; I would of started bashing the idiots who download fakes and don't do there research :-P MatthewFenton 05:11, 27 November 2006 (CST)

Thanks.[edit]

I actually only capitalised the "b" becuase the person before had capitalised "Battlestar Galactica", and I followed the example. Whups.

Well, well, well...[edit]

..and here I was, thinking of how to redesign my user page. Guess I'll have to ~~steal~~borrow this design as well. :) --Spencerian 07:25, 1 December 2006 (CST)

Note to self[edit]

Pics courtosy of Gouugef. To be uploaded/used in articles

Blog FTP[edit]

Check email. Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 17:25, 20 December 2006 (CST)

Cheers Shane, might be a while before I can actually do anything useful though because my granddad is very ill right now :( --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 04:32, 21 December 2006 (CST)

Mathias[edit]

Yes, but we also e.g. use Felix Gaeta in cast lists from the very first episode ("33"), even though his first name was first used in "Final Cut". Ausir 05:31, 22 December 2006 (CST)

Site Images[edit]

Have three awaiting icons. :-) Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 16:14, 27 December 2006 (CST)

Block[edit]

Any insight into your recent preemptive block? I can't even access user IP's, so I wouldn't know where to start... --Steelviper 08:58, 10 January 2007 (CST)

On another wiki I visit has a massive spam attack by this ip advertising comerical spam from wikipost.info. I searched for the url of the spam it was advertising and saw that it was crawling several other wikis posting large amounts of spam (2mb of text on each page). I felt that this preemptive block was neccesary on this occation. --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 09:27, 10 January 2007 (CST)

Gotcha! Hopefully that works. Since going to usernames I haven't tried an IP ban, but if they're consistent in the use of that IP your block should hold. Thanks for the info! --Steelviper 09:30, 10 January 2007 (CST)

I wouldn't normally block an IP address but the attacks seems to be coming from this specific one on a regular basis so thought I should block it just incase. --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 09:36, 10 January 2007 (CST)

Jennifer Joseph rollback[edit]

We're not really sure if that's girl warrior #2 or not, yet. Looking at Jennifer Joseph's imdb profile, it's going to be hard to figure out which girl she was. I'm actually thinking now that she may have been one of the girls in the pressure suit scene. I'll keep on it, though. --Steelviper 08:04, 18 January 2007 (CST)

House[edit]

So far, i'm not seeing any of these fabled and promised house pictures of yours :p --Fordsierra4x4 20:55, 21 January 2007 (CST)

Lol ive got some old ones but ill take some new ones this week --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 03:47, 22 January 2007 (CST)

Reverted edit[edit]

I reverted your edit in Battlestar Wiki:Podcast Transcripts. You added Podcast:Rapture to the list of completed transcripts, but it hasn't even been partially transcribed, it obviously doesn't belong there. Just so you know. --Catrope 10:43, 24 January 2007 (CST)
