Welcome!

Hello Bduddy, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions; I hope you like the place and decide to stay!

Please read The Five Pillars of Wikipedia to help you get to know this place, and you might want to look at What Wikipedia is not to see what is and isn't suitable for Wikipedia.

And remember, don't submit copyrighted work without permission. By submitting your work you promise you wrote it yourself, or copied it from public domain resources — this does not include most web pages.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, please be sure to sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages or ask a question. Again, welcome! - Eagletalk 04:54, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User boxes

Hi there! The page you are looking for is Wikipedia:Userboxes. The difference being the "wikipedia:" prefix. All pages that provide information about Wikipedia have that prefix. Wikipedia:Project namespace and Wikipedia:Namespace provide more info. - Akamad 07:49, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Speaking of userboxes, I saw that you were a member of FIRST. I also noticed that you haven't figured out how to enter your team name/number to the box. Here's what you do:

Find on your page where it says, {{User FIRST}}. Change it to: {{User FIRST|Your Team Name]]. By the way, was your team at the Finger Lakes Regionals this year? I might have seen you there. Jared W!!! | Write to me, why don't you? 19:22, 10 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I was trying to figure it out, but I couldn't... and no, my team wasn't there. I was actually fudging a bit... I was a member of the team last year, and I will be next year, but I wasn't this year. It's team 840, Aragon High School, California, so no, you didn't see my team.

BMW Sauber Twin Towers

Sorry, I've just searched for 'BMW "Twin Towers"' and found a lot of hits. I removed it because I hadn't heard of it (and I pay pretty close attention to F1 news) and also because I though it was possibly offensive (if a reference to World Trade Center - however as you say it's a reference to their sponsor's building). Sorry again, Mark83 21:08, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Contents of the Ja-1 Box

Google's language tools says something along the lines of, "This user can understand elementry level Japanese." Integrity168 09:04, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Block after 1 vandalism?

Hi! I have time for anyone that brings an issue to my user talk page, so thanks for bringing this up! I blocked this account due to the rather disturbing edit summary on this user's 2nd edit. (The first edit wasn't the greatest either.) Rather than letting more damage be done, I decided to block as quickly as possible. While this usually isn't the case (three strikes, you're out is usually the case), I didn't see this user reforming anytime soon. ZsinjTalk 03:11, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category American liberals

Buddy, please take care when adding people to the American liberals category. The current definition is unsupportably broad and vague. Moreover, it is not at all universal -- even in America -- so it is defined basically only by reference to the definition. Moreover, I question any category that would include such disparate political views as the Democratic Party and socialists under "liberal". A, such broad subcats necessarily are overinclusive -- the Dems for instance are certainly not comprised solely of liberals by anyone's understanding of the word (Zell Miller?). B, it seriously mistakes how political ideology is defined: socialists, for instance, even American socialists, do not ordinarily define themselves as "liberals" -- you may as well define left anarchists as liberals. The term liberal is apparently defined in the category, and being applied, in a completely arbitrary fashion, and given that it has a significant POV connotations in the US, I think it is really wildly inappropriate as a category. ... Moreover, how are you sourcing these category additions? Howard Zinn's article describes his beliefs as incorporating Marxism, anarchism, socialism, and social democracy -- are you going to add him to American liberals under the current vague criteria, anarchism, socialism (the subcat), and Communists or Marxists? .... I started discussion at WP:Categorization of people on this issue. In the meantime, I would really urge you to refrain from putting the category on anyone who does not clearly and unequivocally self-define as an American liberal and who is uncontroversially in that category. --lquilter 12:17, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Newman/Haas v. Newman/Haas/Lanigan

I responded to you discussion about the article move here. EeepEeep (talk) 20:39, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I really don't get it. You know this isn't verifiable. You know that none of that evidence is meaningful. You know there is no justification for moving the page. Why would you do something so willfully destructive? If you hate Wikipedia so much why do you even bother coming here? It's crazy. EeepEeep (talk) 23:50, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Seriously? Every reference to the team from any source, including their own website and the indycar.com website, since I posted the move request have been to "Newman/Haas Racing". If you don't think those are "verifiable" or "meaningful", I honestly have no idea what you would think is. I enjoy using Wikipedia very much and think that the names of pages should reflect the proper and current names of their subjects. Bduddy (talk) 03:17, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
