Welcome!
Additional tips:
- Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
- If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
- If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
- Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
- You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
- You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
- If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language

Apple Filing Protocol
editI don't think I explained myself very well regarding the change to Apple Filing Protocol, so I posted a more detailed explanation on Talk:Apple Filing Protocol. Thanks. --Steven Fisher 21:21, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
Re: Fnagaton
editInsofar as I'm aware, there is no policy against removing messages from your own talk page as long as its not in bad faith. Please do be as civil and courteous as possible to Fnagaton; the last thing this ongoing debate needs is for people to feel like they're being attacked. Thanks! -- mattb @ 2007-04-10T00:42Z
- Ah, yes. I misread, the policy says: "Policy does not prohibit users from removing comments from their own talk pages, though archiving is preferred. Please note, though, that the removal of good-faith warnings, even though permitted, is often frowned upon". I read that somehow like "policy does not allow..." (yeah, it happens, I'm not native English speaker.) Sorry for bothering you about that. :) I'll try to be polite to Fnagaton. --SLi 00:47, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
- Just so you don't feel bad, you aren't even close to being the first person to make that mistake. :)
- Heck, even admins sometimes still make it. (I actually think it used to be against the rules to remove comments until relatively recently) Bladestorm 15:58, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Hi, yes blocked users can edit their own user talk pages only. It's how they can use the unblock templates. Cheers. ⇒ SWATJester On Belay! 15:08, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
3RR Warning
editYou have reverted the same block of changes three times, despite two requests to talk about your changes you have not talked about them: [[1]] [[2]] [[3]]
If you do not restore to my last revision I will make a 3RR report. Fnagaton 19:53, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
- Go ahead. --SLi 19:56, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Hello, SLi. I have reviewed the report. You did break 3RR. This is an odd case, as it's on a Wikipedia Talk namespace, but 3RR does apply there as well. You may not have been cognizant of that, and the above warning that reminds you doesn't come until after the fourth revert. Remember 3RR is just an "electric fence", not a judgment of the rightness or wrongness of your edits. If, as a show of good faith, you will now go and put the strikeouts back in, along with a note to other editors to ask someone else to remove the strikeouts if they agree with you, then the disruption will be alleviated and I will decline to block. ··coelacan 10:32, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- Wikipedia Talk namespace is one of the less disruptive places to revert war. I'm blocking you for six hours to enforce 3RR. I've also warned Fnagaton not to make another revert unilaterally; this edit war isn't going to continue unless someone else agrees with Fnagaton. This should be the end of it, and you don't have to mangle your text. ··coelacan 19:34, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you. That doesn't seem too unreasonable! --SLi 23:50, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
List of generic and genericized trademarks
editYou have tagged an entire section in the subject list. Please go to Talk:List of generic and genericized trademarks and identify which entries you believe to be OR so other editors can address your concerns. Thanks, ComputerGeezer (talk) 02:11, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
- Done. Thanks. --SLi (talk) 22:46, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
Pliant language review
editI'm happy with the typo change you applied on Pliant language page.
Also, since you are a computer scientist, I'd be happy with feedback about the content of this page that I rewrote completely not long ago, and also about the more detailed
'More detailed explaination of the four models and three transitions principles'
article linked at the bottom of the page.
My email is [email protected]

Aspartame controversy
editHi SLi, thank you for your comments regarding the survey, the issue you raised is the subject of an ongoing discussion that you are more than welcome to take an active role in. Thanks Unomi (talk) 15:49, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
Confused
editIn this edit, you made a change that confuses me: what's the difference between the two characters? Obviously there's something, or you'd not have made it :-) but would you please enlighten me? Nyttend (talk) 16:05, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
- Sure. The original character, º, is a masculine ordinal indicator, used in some languages to signify ordinals (i.e. 5th ~ 5º). ° is the degree sign. If you look carefully, the ordinal indicator has a small vertical bar (like underline) under the degree sign like thing. Hope this clarifies the issue :) --SLi (talk) 16:16, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
Tone template on Ballarat Football League

Firefox logo
editI'm cleaning up Wikipedia:Non-free content review and saw you had a question about the Firefox logo. It is my opinion that the Firefox logo, Windows logo, and similar logs that appear in screen shots do not make the resulting screenshot a derived work under the incidental inclusion doctrine since the logo does not contribute significantly to the overall visual effect of the image and since it cannot be easily removed or cropped out without distorting the image (e.g. through blurring) or cropping out other important features (e.g. the title bar). IANAL. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 23:21, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
