User talk:Kitsune
From Lostpedia
Hey, welcome to Lostpedia. I see you're making yourself a userpage. Its looking cool might I add (especially that infobox). Anywayz, I also notice you're redoing it cause of formula mistakes. Happens to everyone, wiki syntax is well hard to get, but try using "Show preview" first, that way you can format it all and not keep adding to the recent changes page. Good luck in making your page. I have a userpage guide if you're interested (User:Nickb123/page_help) - sorry shameless plug :-) --Nickb123 (Talk) 12:31, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Yeah. thanks! I'm gonna guess you're another member? I was taking a skim through the User List when I realized that not many people make user pages, so I thought I would. I'll check out your page, but I can't guarantee I won't steal any of you're ideas ;-) (Oh, and yeah, I've never used this kind of formatting before, but I'm getting used to it.)
- When you're editing your page, please tick the minor edit box (or use the Show Preview button, as nick suggested). No offense, but Your edits clog up the Recent changes list. Also, don't forget to sign your posts (even in your own talk page) with "--~~~~" --Phmall 12:39, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Heh, sorry bout that ^^; I sig'd a few of my contributions, then forgot about it. I'm doing everything I can to adapt to this HTML style, but I'll be sure to check the box next time. Sorry ^^;
Don't worry bout it. random tip: instead of using the <b> tags, you can use ''' (three apostrophes) instead. two apostrophes make things italic. --Phmall 12:49, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
- Your page could actually look ace, under that guide I linked you to, check out background colors. Put some black and silver to match your pic and it'd look awesome --Nickb123 (Talk) 12:46, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Yeah, thanks. I'm following the page step by step. On everything I go to, such as forums, I change my Sig constantly, so I know I'll be changing the page frequently till it's perfect in my eyes. Well, at least I feel welcome here. :-)
Wow, can't get this...Hopefully someone's still around. Y'see, when change the color, it also changes the sizes of my (Sub-)headings. I took alook at Phall's profile to try and fix this, though trying his format also didn't work. Any input?
- Dude if you gave me carte blanche I'd make it rock. If you want, tell me what you want and I'll do it for ya --Nickb123 (Talk) 13:19, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
OK, well, I was going to experiment with #C0C0C0 text and a black background of which I haven't gotten the code yet. I was also going to attempt to put silver borders around each section. Plus, I already hate the sections of which I've made, so I'm going to change those after this is all over, too. Wow, this formatting is annoying -_-;
- Tell ya what. Want me to make you a page and then you tweak it? I'll need your permission though before doing anything. Trust me! --Nickb123 (Talk) 13:23, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Yeah, sure! I wouldn't mind at all, I'd actually be greatful. When you say permission, is there actually somewhere on the site where I would need to give you permission to edit my page? Or are you able to do it on our own, without any admission circumstances?
- No its just if anyone chased me up on it I would refer them to this where you said it was ok. Give me like 5-10 mins ok and I'll be done --Nickb123 (Talk) 13:27, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Thank you very much! I'd feel wrong, so somewhere on my page you'll get some major credit from me. I appreciate this very much. And if I ever want to change this color or format, just looking at what you've done'll help me. So after this, I'm good to go.
- K, we'll build on what I've done so far. If its horrid, way off the mark I'll get a SysOp to revert it back to exactly how it was before --Nickb123 (Talk) 13:46, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Nope, not horrid at all. I'll attempt to make a few changes, but thanks much! That helped me a lot, and saved me some time.
- Just done a lil tewaking, its made it look better I think. Its a good foundation for you to work from. If you want anything else on it, just ask and I'll try and help --Nickb123 (Talk) 13:50, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Yup, thanks much. As of now, I love it, but I'll have to edit the info that I've put onto it. Nice work! ^^ Another question: For signatures, when it says "Make a new page"...How would I go about doing this?
- To make a new page, simply go to that page, and click edit at the top. Wanna make a sig? I'll get you started with the link: User:Kitsune/sig. After you've made it, go to your preferences, and in the "Nickname" box, enter {{User:Kitsune/sig}} and check the "Raw signatures (without automatic link)" box. --Phmall 14:06, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Well, thanks guys! Testing... - |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|

- Perfectly designed. Can't read your actual name cause of the font though, unless thats how you want it... In terms of the steps though its completely correct --Nickb123 (Talk) 14:33, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Yeah, that's how I want it. I adore the font Mistral, so I used it, and it worked as I'd like it to. I guess I should contribute to the site now, shouldn't I? =D - |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|

- Go for it, just remember only sign posts on talk pages, not main articles lol. Have fun! --Nickb123 (Talk) 14:37, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Umm, editting/adding to main article isn't allowed, is it? Ahh, crap. Off to delete it >> -- |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|
14:39, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
- Huh? You can edit main articles of course you can! Don't delete it! What I'm saying is its the encyclopaedic side so we don't sign our posts on that and we try to sound formal. Your edit on Libby for instance was perfect and is actually quite shrewd --Nickb123 (Talk) 14:42, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
hey, i removed your addition to S.R. there because it was duplication of existing information. this is a wiki, not a forum, so duplication and 'me too'ing isn't really the aim of article pages. no offence. --kaini. 11:57, 17 August 2006 (PDT)
Yup, it's OK. I'll be more careful to follow the Wiki Etiquette. I'm about to update Rachel Blake with some more, hopefully original, anagrams. Sorry ^^; |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|

Hi and welcome to LOSTpedia, I am one of the almighty sysops. I have seen with glee that you have made a new friend, I hope you continue having a nice experience here with us. We are proud to have a very positive and tightly kniw community, feel free to take off your shoes. I like your username, but I have to say that, as a Kitsune is a fox spirit of japanese lore you MUST be surfing with Mozilla Firefox. If you don't do it already (this is not a commercial, but if your username is BillyGates4eva you cannot run Linux). have a nice time and Namaste. --†††GodEmperorOfHell††† 15:08, 16 August 2006 (PDT)
Actually, nope...I use IE on all four of the computers I use. I have tried FF however, and love it much more. I may switch, though I'm uncertain. I am, however, infatuated with the Kitsune's backfround. Hell, I made my name a link in my profile just so I could share the info. Magnificent indeed. -- |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|

Umm, I'm sorry, but may I ask why this isn't allowed? Off to reread the rules, I suppose... -- |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|
14:45, 17 August 2006 (PDT)
Heh, oh. I didn't see it in the rules after looking again, but at least I know for next time. -- |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|
14:49, 17 August 2006 (PDT)
- Ask User:GodEmperorOfHell if you can put personal welcome messages in the talk pages of new users, do it.--CaptainInsano
- Yeah, maybe we should suggest to geoh to add it to the rules explicitly. It seems a common enough desire to some users, due to its use on other wikis. -- C¯ _Santa_ ¯T14:51, 17 August 2006 (PDT)
Japan
- btw, do you read & write Japanese, or do you reside there currently? I need some help on the Japan article, basically confirmation of the current content and theme song, as well as airdate and network information. -- C¯ _Santa_ ¯T14:52, 17 August 2006 (PDT)
- No, I'm in Ohio. I'm just interesting in the language, mythology, and culture. I know very little Japanese, and can barely read/write it. Sorry ^^; (When I said I know a tad of Japanese, I meant "Tad" in a literal sense of not much...at all.) -- |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|

Three tequila floor? I will be glad to outdrink any of you landlubbers. A quick note, next time you are here in Cancun or Acapulco or other place in Mexico; If anyone challenges you to a tequila shot outdrinking contest say no. You will lose. --†††GodEmperorOfHell††† 15:51, 17 August 2006 (PDT)

- If he starts it I'm going to finish it, the dumb-ass doesn't even know that GEoH agreed with me in the end.--CaptainInsano
- I agree, they're all arguing about it. Americans...are from...AMERICA! =O Common sense, people. -- |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|
You wanna raise hell? I am The God Emperor Of Hell.
Ok, I'll just answer briefly and for the record. Yes, americans are from America, and there is a pretty little place called the American Continent that encompasses from Alaska to Argentina, so, somehow we are all americans. The United States is a country that has adopted American as the word for their nationality and that was exactly the debate. Canadians are northamericans just as mexicans are, guatemalans, ecuadorians, salvadorians are central americans and colombians, venezuelans, brazilians and argentinans are south americans. In Mexico we refer to Citizens of the United States as Estadounidenses because a debate we have had since the Monroe Doctrine and the Mexico-USA war, so, this has been a hundreds of years debate. Wanna fight for it? I won't use my special superpowers, I just need my fists. --†††GodEmperorOfHell††† 18:38, 17 August 2006 (PDT)
- That may be so, but I'm arguing based off of infrmation which I have available to me. As a matter of fact, I think I'll just drop it. Everyone wins. -- |†|[ K i t s u n e ]|†|
