Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. You might like to start by reading the tutorial and introducing yourself at the new users page. For ideas of what to put on your user page, see Wikipedia:User page.
If you have any questions, you can ask at the help desk or on my talk page. Two useful tips are that you can sign your name using four tildes (~~~~) and you can preview your changes before you save using the show preview button. You can regularly find new tips on the Community Portal. I look forward to reading your great articles and I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. :) Angela. 01:27, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Ponderosa
I changed Ponderosa back into a redirect to Bonanza -- you stated that the reason that you restored the original text was "the link to the tree is worth keeping," but the Bonanza article already has a link to Ponderosa Pine, so I really don't see the point in a seperate article. Even if there is information in Ponderosa that isn't in Bonanza, I think a merge would probably be more appropriate, since they are different names for the same show. - RedWordSmith 02:49, 8 Sep 2004 (UTC)
WikiProject: Computer and Video Games
I've noticed your contributions to game-related articles. Maybe you'd be interested in this WikiProject? I don't see you on the list of participants. –Andre (talk) 22:45, Oct 12, 2004 (UTC)

The Gaming Collaboration of the week
Hey there Sparky the Seventh Chaos! I just wanted to drop you a message to inform you of the new Gaming Collaboration of the week that's just been set up. You seem to be interested and knowledgeable about computer/console gaming, so I thought I'd drop you a line. Gaming Collaboration of the week aims to improve the quality of Wikipedia's computer and video game articles through widespread cooperative editing, similar to the more generic Collaboration of the week. If you're interested, please stop by the page or its talk page. It would also be appriciated if you spread the word about Gaming Collaboration of the week's existence--I'm sure there are plenty of Wikipedians that would be glad to help out. Anyways, I look forward to collaborating with you to make a better Wikipedia. --pie4all88 01:48, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)
The Metal Sonic image.
I found it on google images. But i´m sure it´s an official artwork of Sega. Sorry if i set the wrong license... how can i change it??
Sorry about don´t signing it. I´m new here. It was found on http://planeta.terra.com.br/lazer/sonikku/. I guess it´s probably from the sonic cd manual.--Mark the Echidna 23:16, 7 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Pokemon cloning
Here's the content of the deleted article you wanted to see:
- In the Pokémon video games, there are two ways to "clone" Pokémon, and both of them involve exploiting in-game glitches. One works in the Pokémon Red and Blue versions. It involves trading Pokémon and turning off the game during the process. However, instead of duplication the trick may sometimes delete the Pokémon if improper timing is used.
- There is also another way to clone Pokémon. It is a trick that can clone Pokémon and items. It works only in the Gold, Silver, and Crystal versions, although it does require more exact timing in the Crystal version.
I think it looks OK myself, and I voted to undelete it, but I also appreciate Pokemon content more than a lot of people. Everyking 07:32, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Congratulations!
Congratulations! You've been mentioned in the external press -- see Wikipedia:Press coverage#December! :) -- Arwel 22:36, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)
You're in the news
Check out [1] (http://www.cornellsun.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2004/12/02/41ae87066c10f). Incidently, excellent work on your diligence on the Ecco the Dolphin article! - Ta bu shi da yu 22:49, 2 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Response to the above two comments
Heh, too bad said article reads like it was written by one of those mildly entertaining (at least in small doses) vandal types, which I suppose it was. ^_^ Ah well – I'm in the news, and I don't care that they seem to think us Wikipedians are a bunch of geeks with no lives. And thanks very much for the Barnstar! Hehe... my first user page vandalism followed so soon by my first Barnstar – I feel important. Not too important, though. ^_~ --Sparky the Seventh Chaos 01:09, Dec 3, 2004 (UTC)
The Humungous Image Tagging Project
Hi. You've helped with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)
If you're here because of my messages on behalf of the HITP...
Please post your descriptions under this header. ^_^ --Sparky the Seventh Chaos 23:59, Dec 8, 2004 (UTC)
Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=User_talk:Ram-Man&action=edit§ion=new)| talk)
Did you know that you don't exist?
Not according to a particular Cornell Sun editor. See User_talk:Ta_bu_shi_da_yu#JS.27s_Response and [2] (http://www.cornellsun.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2004/12/02/41ae87066c10f?in_archive=1) where you are mentioned directly. Some people have no clue. - Ta bu shi da yu 12:31, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Well, I think I prefer non-existence to that editor's existence. And all this time I thought I was an actual eccentric entity with a penname/screename... --Sparky the Seventh Chaos 12:40, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC)
Spelling
I think you may have spelled 'licensing' wrongly on your user page. 62.49.5.21 17:15, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Thanks. I could've sworn I ran that through a spellcheck... guess not. ^^' --Sparky the Seventh Chaos 18:12, Dec 27, 2004 (UTC)
Powerpuff Girls category dispute
I'm thinking that maybe we should post it up for comment. Then again, I fear a decision that would chafe critics. Marcus2 22:25, 29 Jan 2004 (UTC)
pokemon/digimon
If you insist, then how about I add a differing description to that page just to make Pokémon and Digimon unrelated.
- I apologise, but I'm not really sure what you mean here. They are inherently different from one another; it's just... part of what they are. It's like Metroid Prime and Halo being different, or The Call of the Wild and White Fang. Similar ideas, perhaps, but inherently different executions.
- Also, you can sign your name by clicking the "Your signature with timestamp" button in the Edit window, or by simply typing three or four tidles (~); three gives your signature with no timestamp, four with. People appreciate it when you sign your Talk page posts. --Sparky the Seventh Chaos 01:49, Feb 11, 2005 (UTC)
Pretend it's a guide book to how Digimon are different than Pokemon.

Return of the Untagged Image project
You were kind enough to contribute to the Wikipedia:Untagged images project; I beg to draw your attention to part 2 of the project - there are about 12,000 more images in need of tagging. Any assistance you could provide would be most welcome. thanks --Tagishsimon (talk)
