Hi, Hornandsoccer, Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello, bonjour, salut, privyet, konichiwa, shalom, hola, salve, sala'am, bonjourno, and hi! I'm Sputnik. I noticed that you were new and/or have yet to receive any messages so I just thought I'd pop in to say "hello". We're glad to have you in our community! I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it's so big but we won't bite so Be Bold and get what you know down in microchips! If you do make a mistake, that's fine, we'll assume good faith and just correct you: it'll take a few seconds maximum! I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Though we all make goofy mistakes, here is what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful. If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you. Here are a few links to get you started:
And remember:
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
  • If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.
  • P.S. I'm happy to help new users. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you need help with anything or simply wish to say hello. :)

Happy Wiki-ing!

Your VandalProof Application

Dear Hornandsoccer,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.1 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that for security reasons, VandalProof's creator requires it's users to have made 250 edits to articles, which you have not. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.

St. Ignatius High School (Cleveland, Ohio): Alma Mater addition

May I ask why you chose to add the alma mater back into the article again? – backburner001 21:02, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Replied on my talk. – backburner001 13:50, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

About the vandal

I saw that you reverted a vandal on Saint Ignatius High School (Cleveland, Ohio). I also saw that your edit summary asked for the user to be blocked. Sadly leaving an edit summary like that might never be noticed by an admin. I left a warning on the user's talk page since it was his first and only act of vandalism(see Wikipedia:Vandalism). Now if he vandalizes the page again report him on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism the procedure on how to this is on the page. --Wildnox 01:23, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Hornandsoccer, welcome to WikiProject LGBT Studies!

We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying, categorizing, and improving articles of interest to the LGBT community. Some points that may be helpful:

  • Our main aim is to help improve LGBT-related articles, so if someone asks for help with an article, please try your hardest to help them if you are able.
  • Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
  • The project has several ongoing and developing activities, such as article quality assessment, peer review and a project-wide article collaboration, all of which you are welcome to take part in. We also have a unique program to improve our lower quality articles, Jumpaclass, so please consider signing up there.
  • If you have another language besides English, please consider adding yourself to our translation section, to help us improve our foreign LGBT topics.
  • If you're planning to stay, have a square in our quilt! You can put anything you want in it.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the talk page, and we will be happy to help you.

And once again - Welcome!

Project News
  • The LGBT Portal has once again been revamped and a work rota started. Efforts towards Featured Portal status are slowly coming together.
  • The assessment system has been a great success, we have tagged over 4000 articles! Please tag any LGBT related articles you come across by adding {{LGBTProject | class=}} to the talkpage. Please see the Assessment Department for how to assess an article according to the grading system.
  • The Translation department has changed its focus, to LGBT articles about non-English topics and people on which there may be more information on the relevant foreign Wikipedia. Please add your name if you are fluent in any language other than English.
  • Jumpaclass is picking up slowly, with nine people having entered. With over 2000 stubs we need to improve our article quality. Please sign up and get it going! Challenge another user to see how far you can jump a stub!
  • There is an ongoing discussion about the current LGBT categorisation system here, here, and a little bit here. A special page has now been set up here to deal with this.
  • A Watchlist has been set up to monitor controversial and/or highly vandalised articles. It can also be used for article disputes, just add a note explaining the nature of the dispute.
  • With the influx of so many active members, there is now enough support for a LGBT studies peer review, which may be found here. It's in the beta phase at the moment, so bear with us if we make any mistakes. Feel free to peer review any articles you have been working on.
  • It was agreed this month to start reducing the uses of the Notice board, as many members felt that it was not effective. An open tasks template has been created, bringing together important announcements, FAC/FARs, Peer reviews, XfDs, the COTM, and requested articles. You may desire to watchlist it. A Deletion sorting subpage is also now working to bring together XfDs - this should be bot-driven, but we have not currently tagged enough articles to make this fully automated, so please update the list with any LGBT-related XfDs you come across.

Hey, Pat Conroy's in Trouble

Pat, thanks for the shoutout. If you have any time, the Pat Conroy article and the articles] about his works are in bad condition or nonexistant. If you could work on those when you get around to it or spread the word and get other people involved, that would be marvelous. Alrighty, thanks a bundle, Demosthenes 1 22:58, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I didn't realize the other english classes didn't read his books. In mine we read two books by him, so I became familiar with his works. If you'd still like to help, I'd appreciate it. Thanks a lot, Demosthenes 1 23:18, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

WP:LGBT Coordinator Election Notice

Re: St. Joseph Academy (Cleveland, Ohio)

I have reinstated the redirect. I'll be more than happy to completely ignore the article after you've added body paragraphs and sources. Until then, it's nothing more than a single sentence article ripe for redirection. Please don't recreate the article until you have actually added more information. Further, the decision of the AfD has no bearing on redirects/mergers. Please do not take this note as an implication that I don't believe you will add information and sources, I do. I would just rather that the article not be recreated until it actually contains relevant information. "It's a school in Cleveland" doesn't count. Soltak | Talk 22:48, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

George Szell

Your edit to George Szell is ungrammatical and has been reverted. THD3 19:21, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for catching my mistake-I rewrote the sentence like this. Please let me know if this is incorrect HornandsoccerTalk 21:06, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Great fix!THD3 22:10, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Are you following that dispute over the use of the word "perhaps" in the George Szell article? Truly a mountain out of a molehill. Btw, I live in Cleveland and have tons of szell recordings if you ever want to hear any.THD3 02:21, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I am, and I think I started it with my addtion of the flag by his death year. I dunno what to say about it, some people are more than a little obsessed. Tons of Szell recordings, eh? I have Pictures at an Exhibition and Capriccio Espangol, but that's about it. HornandsoccerTalk 02:26, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Last push for the Biography Assessment Drive

We've done great work so far on the WikiProject Biography Spring 2007 Assessment Drive, reducing the 135,345 backlog by 38,626 to 96,719 as of March 20, 2007. We have only 6,720 more to go to get below 90,000. That would be outstanding and any extra effort that you can offer in these last few days of the drive (which ends March 24, 2007) would be much appreciated. If you haven't already, you may want to load Outriggr's assessment script in your monobook.js. If you have any questions, please feel free to post them on my talk page. – Jreferee 23:16, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your tags on the talk pages - it is unlikely these stubs will be further developed for a week or two - my phone line just got cut today :) SatuSuro 08:31, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank You


Thank you for your comments and your help, I do appreciate it. This is all kind of new to me and once this semester is over I will have more time to add more information and refrences. I would appreciate any feedback you have and thank you for letting me know! --Sarajaynej 03:50, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
