Hello Lijealso/Archive 1, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like it here and decide to stay.
Here are some tips to help you get started:
- Read the tutorial and learn how to edit a page.
- Experiment in the sandbox.
- Follow the Simplified Ruleset.
- Try to edit from a neutral point of view.
- Use talk pages to communicate with other editors.
- Be bold in updating pages.
- Eventually, read the Manual of Style and learn about the Five Pillars of Wikipedia.
- And most importantly, have fun!
If you need any help, see the help pages and glossary, add a question to the help desk, or ask me on my talk page.
I hope you will enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian. Good luck! — Bcat
IRC bot
editIs it possible to put the IRC bot on a new channel to be used by portuguese wikipedians (to fight vandalism on portuguese wikipedia)? How it can be done ? thanks. -- lijealso 22:25, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- It can be done with a few keyboard commands on my part, however I will need help in translation of the bot. Ill make the necesary adjustments. --Cool CatTalk|@ 23:42, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- What needs to be translated? I'll try to do it (or ask some help from portuguese wikipedians). thanks. -- lijealso 23:54, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- The bot is active at #wikipedia-pt-vandalism I am working on uploading the pages to wikipedia. --Cool CatTalk|@ 00:10, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- I'll need the translation of all but the last one of the files listed above, last one has some code in it so is hard to translate others shouldnt be too hard. If translation does not happen the bot will work just fine but will post in english rather than portugeese. --Cool CatTalk|@ 00:17, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- Ok. im testing it on #wikipedia-pt-vandalism. I also made an announcement for other users in pt.wiki about this.
- I'll try to translate the files. When finished, i'll post here. Thanks again. -- lijealso 00:55, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
Kudos/Fighting Spam
editIt is good of you to wait out that apparently ticked off spammer on the Wikipedia article. It looks like he/she could go on like that for a while... -- Dx 08:30, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
Another alternative
editIn case you have a unix shell available, there's also a python bot to monitor vandalism that can be left unattended (and it's also portable to any OS where python is ported) -- ( drini's page ☎ ) 16:43, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
IRC bot
editHi. I've ask you, some time ago, to put a irc bot on wikipedia-pt-vandalism. Is it working properly ? I cannot send commands to the bot (actually i dont remenber what commands it accepts. lijealso 00:01, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
editSuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 18:02, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
Your monobook is in Category:Wikipedia tools
editYour monobook is in Category:Wikipedia tools. This is most likely because when you were copying scripts into yout monobook you accidentaly copied their category. Since your monobook is not a tool itself, please remove this category from it. If you intend for your monobook to be a tool, please consider creating a subpage with a more descriptive name, and moving the category there. Thank you, -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 22:36, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
