Hello Sereh888! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I think its very important for you to browse through some of the links below so as to become familiar with how Wikipedia works. If you need any help you can ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and another Wikipedian will show up shortly. Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking or by typing four tildes "~~~~"; this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you're already loving Wikipedia and plan on becoming a Wikipedian you might consider being "adopted" by a more experienced editor, just paste {{Adoptme}} into your userpage and you will gladly be adopted!

BBC-sitcoms-stub[edit]

Hi - it has come to our notice that you have recently created a new stub type. As it clearly states at WP:STUB, at the top of most stub categories, on the template page for new Wikiprojects and in many other places on Wikipedia, new stub types should be proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies, and whether better use could be made of a WikiProject-specific talk page template.

In the case of your new stub type, it is alreof a type very similar to several previously deleted. Television programmes are split by type of programme, not by the type of channel they may be shown on in one country in the world. there are also not the standard threshold number of articles which would instantly be able to take the new stub type. r new stub type is currently listed for deletion at WP:SFD - please feel free to make any comments there as to any reason why this stub type should not be deleted. And please, in future, propose new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 06:04, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Edit count[edit]

You already have links to the guidelines of wikipedia which should help get you started, but I thought perhaps you would like to see your edit count, which is continually updated by the system and can be viewed here. Kind regards, SGGH 15:52, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: adoption[edit]

You're very welcome! I've removed the adoption welcome thing from here (I hope you don't mind) 'cause for some reason further edits to your talk page were all falling inside that purple box and I figured that might end up annoying you! Hope you don't mind (the welcome tag didn't contain any real useful information anyway).

But, to get to the point: What are your interests? If your a student, what subjects to you do? There's a whole range of wikiprojects out there that you can join, to help devealop your wikipedianing (I make up a lot of words like that) in a specific direction. For instance, Wikipedia:WikiProject Law Enforcement or Wikipedia:Wikiproject Military History are the two that I'm involved in, but there are countless around the place.

Also, if you like, I could give you some help with your user page? While it isn't article editing, and some people thing its purely a superfluous use of someones time, I know that making my user page how I liked it made me more enthusiastic about working on wikipedia as a whole. Userboxes are a good start, if you are so inclined.

Have a browse around and read a couple of articles that your really interested in is what I would suggest, to get the flavour of article writing. If you have any questions, click on this link where I've created a user subpage dedicated to any questions you make have. I await your response, SGGH 22:46, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Come across any problems yet? SGGH 15:08, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey again! Welcome back, what's new? SGGH 23:41, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

a very useful link[edit]

Wikipedia:Articles for creation, very helpful! SGGH 14:45, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SGGH says...[edit]

Not being rude or anything, But I would find it a lot easier if SGGH edited here as ⅞ of the time you are writing! It would save a mess of a talk page from cleanup. Sereh888 20:50, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, no problem. SGGH 16:21, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh by the way, your signature needs to be [[User:Sereh888|The WikiWhippet]] to make it link to your userpage, I have fixed the one below for you :) SGGH 16:22, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I know. I had to leave just after, but thanks a lot for the change!

You can look at Wikipedia:Changing username if you want to change it fully SGGH 20:03, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Sereh, my RFA was successful. Thanks for your support! SGGH 20:42, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I like the new name, and your userpage has certainly exploded in a menagerie of colour! SGGH 20:03, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Changed signature[edit]

I have change my signature(nickname).

The WikiWhippet   (deeds) 

   

:May I suggest that you move the bold-italic for "deeds" inside the link. 

[[Special:Contributions/Sereh888|'''''(deeds)''''']]

The formatting is throwing the tallying bot out. 10:18, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Chat[edit]

User SGGH has been nominated for adminship. You may particpate in the process, if you wish here:Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/SGGH

Conflict?[edit]

i am not sure what you are talking about. I was discussing tunakdude's contributions, not anything to do with vandalising the sandbox. Cheers, XVreturns 23:41, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

wow...[edit]

Your talk page is definitely... Colorful. :-S

Anyways, welcome to wikipedia. Happy editing :-) (sorry, just never seen you around. And the mass of distracting colors caught my eye. They still ache).... :-) Nateland 03:52, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe it's a server bug. (Lols. Perhaps)...Nateland 04:40, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User box creator with template[edit]

I noticed you made a userbox here are two useful userbox creators you might be interested in

Java7837 20:16, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Danke[edit]

Thank you for cleaning up my recent addition to Spooky (disambiguation)... and after seeing your username, I'm going to have Devo's "Whip It" in my head all night. - Ugliness Man 05:50, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"correction" of direct quotes[edit]

Hi -- while cleaning up misspellings and improper punctuation is usually a good thing, cleaning these things up from inside direct quotes is not. Direct quotes should be left as they are. Thanks. -- Antaeus Feldspar 21:01, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]


userbox creator[edit]

simply put the location where you want it to be saved to it will then load a template for you

also plz tell me the location of your new userbox on my talk page i like userboxes!


do you understand the instructions i gave above? yeah (The WikiWhippet)


For example if i want to make a userbox about tigers you put your account then /userboxing or /userboxes then the name of the userbox so User:The WikiWhippet/userboxes/tigeruserbox also you can host your userboxes off of my account so User:Java7837/userboxing/youruserbox is okay with me


awesome userbox!!!!!!


suggestion on your userbox[edit]

Thank God You're Here! I thought you'd never read this userbox!

{{User:Java7837/userboxing/thankgod}} i made a version of your userbox which is easier to read or was the purpose to make it hard to read?

Your bizarre message[edit]

In re Black Cut message you left on my talk page: 1) My "experiment" was marking the page w/ speedy delete tag, which obviously isn't a test. 2) You did not revert the edit, you apparently just added Bold text to the bottom of the article.

So -what's the scoop? SkierRMH 05:22, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, evidently I hit the "B" tab at the top of the article when I tagged the article - didn't even realize it. SkierRMH 05:31, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of your userpage[edit]

I saw the AfD for all your subpages (you did have quite a few) but I don't understand how your userpage itself could be deleted, that's not a subpage and everyone has one, and I believe that that delete was a mistake or at least was unfair and incorrect, so I have restored just your main userpage, none of the subpages. SGGH speak! 19:36, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Adoption[edit]

Hey there, I've decided to give up adopting now. I haven't had the time to give you the help you might have needed, though I will still be able to answer any questions you might have. There are other adopters with whom you would have better communication :) cheers SGGH speak! 18:18, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Golf Mill Shopping Center[edit]

If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Golf Mill Shopping Center (2nd nomination). Thank you. --B.

Motto of the day[edit]

Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 02:56, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

File:Whippet Barnstar.PNG listed for deletion[edit]

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Whippet Barnstar.PNG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014[edit]

Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.

Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This message has been sent by pjoef on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).
