− | :lol: I thought I left a redirect on your personal page after I page-jacked it. I did the whole thing because a) there was a link to the person page in question from a template (which I actually found after moving the thing) and b) the personal page in questions kept showing up in the lists of pages needing fixing (the real reason) and c) it was a handy thing that people other than you might need.

− | I'm trying to <b>clean up</b> this mess, not make it worse! Why would I jack a page and not leave things working correctly? :lol: [[User:Miros1|Rose/Miros]] 01:50, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

− | Yeah, one of my attempts to fix some dead links and such ballooned out of control. So yep, we've got a bunch of new templates borrowed from Wikipedia. [[User:Miros1|Rose/Miros]] 11:03, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

− | BTW, I'm in the process of removing the ballooned templates and pages. Recheck to see if your desired template is still there. If it disappears, reimport or ask me to do so. [[User:Miros1|Rose/Miros]] 12:18, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

− | == A problem on Lunarpedia ==
| |
− | Anonymous IP's have edited Strangelv's User:talk page with no response. There is a new user account that has been started in the Russian language. I suspect illegal activity abusing Lunarpedia's undefended condition. I suggest the temporary prohibition of new accounts on Lunarpedia until this gets sorted out. There should be a policy of english language only on Lunarpedia pages if that policy does not exist already. This is a crisis that I hope we can come through. I am sorry that I am not in position to take on administrative responsibilities for Lunarpedia at present. I am willing to look into what would be needed. Anonymous edits at Lunarpedia should also be temporarily disabled.--[[User:Farred|Farred]] 16:56, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

− | Hi James, we have a bunch of [[Marsp:Deletion|files and other stuff to delete]] on Marspedia. No sysops seem to be around for months. Can you please help us? Thanks! -- [[User:Rfc|Rfc]] 20:36, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

− | Is there something wrong with my hints on [[Marsp:User_talk:PPark]]? What is your opinion about Russian/Cyrillic contents? What is your opinion about my other hints? You seem to welcome the import of whole existing documents. I am afaid Marspedia is (mis)used as mere web space for another project. I would like to develop a common understanding of how Marspedia should act. The policies are not quite clear. -- [[User:Rfc|Rfc]] 08:40, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

− | == non Mars related advertising on Marspedia site ==
| |
− | Hello Jarogers,
| |
− | New User:4400 has put a link to Puma shoes on his user page. I do not think this is the sort of contribution Marspedia seeks. I do not know if the corporation has anything to do with this. I could start with a comment on User:4400's talk page, but editing User:4400's user page may be necessary. I thought I would seek your input.[[User:Farred|Farred]] 02:04, 4 July 2010 (UTC) Thanks.

− | :The real world seems to have taken much of your time away from Lunarpedia, but I hope you still hold the web site dear.
| |
− | :With my 1st of September 2008 edit to the [[Size of Infrastructure]] article I removed a <nowiki>{{cleanup}}</nowiki> template, but I realize that with my limited knowledge of wiki tech and good style conventions I may have been unjustified in removing it. I would be happy for any suggestions for improving articles. Do you think studying the Wikipedia manual of style would help? Thanks for your consideration. --[[User:Farred|Farred]] 17:15, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
| |
− | ::Life tends to do that :-/
| |
− | ::Studying the manual always helps. Other than tweaking my pet peeve about extremely long sentences (grammar nazism) the article looks pretty good. I recommend adding some pertinent illustrations. -- [[User:Jarogers2001|Jarogers2001]] 16:42, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
| |
− | :::Thanks. --[[User:Farred|Farred]] 01:48, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
| |
− | :::I have also noticed problems with run-on sentences in my writing. I tend to forget though. The reminder helps. Illustrations would help in a number of articles, but my lack of skill deters me. In one or two instances the need falls within my ability as an illustrator. It will take time. Where I am capable of some technique, still I have little experience. I can tackle the writing sooner. --[[User:Farred|Farred]] 02:53, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

− | ::::Feel free to use pre-existing concept images, such as those available from nasa. - [[User:Jarogers2001|Jarogers2001]] 00:38, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
| |
− | :::::I hit the writing in <nowiki>[[Size of Infrastructure]]</nowiki> first and found more problems than I anticipated. I have ideas for illustrations, but I have already spent more time than I have on Lunarpedia. I must attend to real life. --[[User:Farred|Farred]] 06:11, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
| |
− | ::::::Oh boy, I definitely understand that predicament. [[User:Jarogers2001|Jarogers2001]] 23:13, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
| |
− | If you look at Marspedia you will see that after taking care of some real life issues I posted stuff there before here. I have not forgotten the graphics for Lunarpedia. I have a little electronic camera and some pictures of rockets. I am making progress towards something I can upload. And real life keeps making demands. --[[User:Farred|Farred]] 21:33, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
| |
− | :The graphics aren't a requirement or anything, just a suggestion to use illustrations to help make your point. Life comes first. Sounds like you need a few personal clones as badly as I do. We should mug Peter and make him tell us where he gets his.
| |
− | ::I never thought that graphics were a requirement. Your suggestion about what could improve articles is what I sought. You reminded me of things that I have put off so long that I forgot about them. Don't get the wrong idea about my busy life. I think I put far less time per day into looking after real life concerns than most people. With the quality of graphics that I upload, I can only get better. --[[User:Farred|Farred]] 03:28, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

− | == The spelling of aluminium ==
| |
− | A new user, Jotagiraldez, is apparently very productive and talented. One thing he changed that I would disagree with is the spelling of aluminum being changed to aluminium, the British variant that my spell checker flags as an error. I give an argument for the old spelling on the [[Talk:Aluminium]] page if you care to look. Apparently I failed to save the edit the last time I tried to send you this message.--[[User:Farred|Farred]] 16:09, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
