Thanks for adding the box- Now I know how to go about things with it. The only problem is that the archive box does not work in my case because I used a Year/Month format to save it, while the archive box can only retrieve from a numbered archive. Any way you can fix that (maybe take all archives to an archive 1 or something, and deleting the rest of the pages or to make the box so that it auto inputs from year/month archives) so its still working automatic? Thanks a ton! TheOriginalSoni ( talk) 06:58, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

I noticed on your user page that you have a script that helps with DelSorting. I don't really have experience with it, but I'm a bit bored with what I'm doing now and thought I'd better have one more thing to do to add some variation. - a boat that can float!

Hi Jethrobot! You invited me to correspond with you via the Teahouse months ago, and I should've taken you up on it then, but instead I tried revising my article according to the comments I received following the article's initial rejection, only to be rejected again. Here is a link to the latest revision of the article http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Zack_Norman&oldid=529507046 I would very much appreciate any help or advice you can offer, and will gladly provide anything you need from my end to help in this regard. Below please find all the correspondence to date between my and several Wikipedia editors regarding my article on Zack Norman. Look forward to hearing from you! All the best, Matthew Weiss PS Love your name! Matzohboy ( talk) 21:45, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Check me if I am wrong, but you built the Maitre 'd calander, right? Is there any way you can set it to open to the current month? I am sure we need to keep record of who was the Maitre 'd when, but I am thinking most come to that page with the idea of signing up. Just looking for a way to make it easier. Thanks in advance.

Hi, Jethrobot, Nice to know that there are live people behind Wikipedia! Yes, I found the problem with my edits and corrected it by the time you looked at my site. Can you tell me how to include photographs on this site? There are no indications for this, but every other bio has photos.
Thanks, PriscillaAnne ( talk) 22:44, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
Here's a screenshot of the Upload Wizard:
You start by selecting the files you want to upload, then you go step by step through the process. In the final step, you'll get some wiki markup that you can copy into a Wikipedia article. Let me know if I can help. :-) I, Jethrobot drop me a line (note: not a bot!) 02:52, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
Good Morning. I made several changes to the Chaminade High School (Mineola, New York) web-page. I noted your comments for improvement; I had not really reviewed my talk-box in quite a while. I might make some further improvements in the future, per your comments but I have been rather busy over the past several months and only now have some time to actually review the article and suggestions for improvements.

It was so refreshing for me, and I'm sure for the Teahouse guest you helped, to include images with your explanation of how to use the citation templates in the editing toolbar. A picture can go such a long way to helping a confused and overwhelmed editor and you provided two great ones right where it was needed. Thanks for doing that!
Also, in case you were wondering, you're receiving a Badge as part of a new experiment centered around 'acknowledgements' in the Teahouse. If you see someone doing something awesome, find the Badge that fits best and share it with them. More details are linked on the Badge itself. Cheers!
Great Answer Badge | |
Awarded to those who have given a great answer on the
Teahouse Question Forum. A good answer is one that fits in with the Teahouse expectations of proper conduct: polite, patient, simple, relies on explanations not links, and leaves a talkback notification. |

I found you in the Teahouse. I am not an especially new user, but I have a problem that is new to me. I created an article called Pluralist Generation. It was certainly not a perfect article and I got called out for original research. The editors who flagged the article were correct--I did not have a full understanding of that rule.
Long story short, the article I created was merged with the Generation Z article, with just a very small amount of information about the Pluralist Generation. The problem is that although these two articles are about the same age group, the theory between the two names is different. I have requested on the Generation Z article's Talk page that the two pages be unmerged, but the editor who merged it disagrees. He or she is reasonable and I'm not pointing fingers, I just want to know the protocol of requesting that it be unmerged so that it is not just one person deciding the fate of this information. Do I post the issue on a noticeboard? Thanks, HtownCat ( talk) 01:35, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi, Jethrobot, I am really confused about this. I printed out the photo uploading page, but can't find any way to put them on the article page. Wiki only printed half of the text, so I don't know if the rest is missing or not. Here is the link in HTML, which is complete, and may help you find my photo file: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Priscilla_McLean_Photo.jpg
There are three photos in all, but I will only give you one to figure out.
Thanks, PriscillaAnne ( talk) 22:07, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

You keep deleting my additions to KINK
I would like your help creating this page about TuneGenie:
They are not promotional, if so then you should delete the whole article KINK and any other radio station article as "promotional", and who are you to falsly claim that they are promotional ? What is the point of editing articles if some Jackboot thug comes by and deletes it ?
