I noticed you were asking how to upload files. Unfortunatly, Word etc. files cannot be uploaded for practical reasons. They can be done using Wiki markup and HTML but you should always use Wiki Markup over HTML. A guide on tables is found here.

cheers and happy Wiki editing Fneep 09:52, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

SuggestBot 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.

Hi CattleGirl. Great job writing the cattle judging article. It has a lot of useful content in it. But there is one problem: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, so articles should be encyclopedic with a neutral point of view. At this time, the cattle judging article is more like a manual on how to judge cattle instead of information about cattle judging. As I know nothing about the subject, I am unfortunately unable to make these improvements myself. So it would be wonderful is you could take the time to rewrite the article, with these considerations in mind. For more information, consult Wikpedia guidelines like what wikipedia is not. --Stijn Vermeeren 19:41, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You can include some about how to judge, but not so much as right now. Have an eye for every aspect. In the introduction, write some lines about what is is, very generally, for people who do not know what cattle judging is. Then in the article, you can write about the where (on what occasions) one judges cattle, which people judge cattle and why they do so, about the history of this habit... Also, try not to talk to the reader (When you are judging cattle, you want to), but write from a neutral, third person's perspective (Wikipedia is after all an encyclopedia). I hope you find these remarks helpful in improving the cattle judging article, and other articles you might write in the future. --Stijn Vermeeren 11:25, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

202.7.176.130 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) Almost all contributions are vandalism. Has been given many warnings and been blocked a number of times. [[1]] -- CattleGirl 05:49, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for your contributions at WP:AIAV, but looking over this user's latest edits, it looks to me that the last batch of edits has been constructive. This could be a sign that a different person is now using this IP, and this person is contributing, so a block would at this point be more harmful than helpful. But keep on watching out for this, we could use all the help we can get! --- Deville (Talk) 06:25, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, that's my job...:D --- Deville (Talk) 06:33, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, this is just a message to me so i don't lose this link! it's an edit counter anyway, the link, for me, and for anyone else who's interested... this is THE LINK!!! CattleGirl 09:19, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And i am also trying to apply HTML to ny userpage, experimenting with my user html sandbox, but it's not working. eny suggestions appreciated. here is a HTML link with information: http://www.utoronto.ca/webdocs/HTMLdocs/NewHTML/htmlindex.html CattleGirl^{Talk to me}

Thanks for your persistence in reverting vandalism to St Ignatius' College, Riverview. Remember that when making statements on pages such as User talk:144.132.192.3, you can use some of the templates on WP:VAND to help give added force to what you are saying. Further, you can go through from one warning to more serious ones as the vandalism continues. This gives civility - being hard but fair. Keep up the good work!

The video aired at the end of the TNA PPV, you can also check any website that provides coverage (like the TNA website). TJ Spyke 03:41, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That was an anon IP that added that. We get that type of vandalism in wrestling articles a lot when big news is announced. It's one of the reasons I think registration should be required to edit. TJ Spyke 03:50, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your quick response to the sockpuppet tags Topcattheirrefutable is throwing around :) Tancred 10:36, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cattlegirl,

When signing your comments on talk pages, can you use four tildes (~~~~) in the future? That not only adds your signature, but also stamps the time and date you left it, so it's easier for other editors to figure out when those comments were left without having to wade through the page history. I'm speaking specifically to your comments on User talk:Topcattheirrefutable, as an example. Thanks. Neil916 (Talk) 18:37, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou for your concern in the dispute. I essentially use no rules on wikipedia except the general convention of being wikipedian and attempting to improve the encyclopedia. I am the Ehinger but I am not Ehinger222 which is a different character. I have literally hundreds of created sockpuppets, but most of them are only used to create pages and are used once. I have literally contributed thousands of valid edits to wikipedia and have improved the enc yclopedia n areas very varied from Atlantis to the Basque language.

If I want to have a little fun at the expense of an i.d. that devotes its time almost exclusively to compiling"evidence" against me(most of it wrong for that matter), than is it really such a bad thing? Have a geeze at Dibo's account fr the month leading up to October 1st. The dude only came on looking for me. Oh ... and I am 90% sure that he is Tancred. They both eroneously assert tha soccer should be referred to as football which is stupid and wrong and thay continually troll by insisting on it in articles that they have done nothing to create or contribute to.

Comrade

Cattlegirl, I can remove the SP tag because I follow no rules and in 99% of cases I am entirely wikipedian. Protocol does not apply for me. 01:01, 4 October 2006 (UTC)Topcattheirrefutable

Hello Cattlegirl I just want to know how to find out new users and give them a welcome note. Would be great if you can help me.Thanks. rencin24 rencin24 11:18, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
