Edit warning on Constellation program

Dear Rsteilberg,

For the past ten days you have been constantly reverting changes on the Constellation program article. Such actions are referred to as WP:Edit warring. I encourage you to stop modifying this article as long as do not provide additional source which allow you to state that the Constallation program is still operation. If you persist, you may be banned.

Thank you in advance, Xionbox^₪ 14:37, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Dear Rsteilberg,

Apology accepted.

I'll admit that I too am a big supporter of space exploration (have a look at my user page) and was deeply shocked of the canceling of the program. However, seeing the progress of of private companies, such as Space X and their Falcon 9 rocket, I still keep my hopes up that I will witness the next extraterrestrial landing. In addition, the Obama administration did propose a feat similar to the Constellation program's goal, which skips the Moon lay-over and goes to an asteroid instead. The following mission should go to Mars directly.

For as long as I've known about asteroid and comets, I've always thought traveling on one of these two was a better idea. Think of it: no need for propulsion and, if the object is big enough, shelter may be found in it with little need of complex sun ray sheltering enclosures. In addition, if we were to go to a comet, water would be already present.

The drawback of traveling on these objects is that it's difficult to hang on to it since it has so little gravity, being so small.

Space exploration interest

I saw your exchange with Xionbox^₪ re Constellation. I was interested, being a bit of a True Believer myself. I just updated the lead section of Space exploration, which was embarrassingly outdated. But you might like to look at the material I added to the "Future of space exploration" section about the Nautilus-X concept study, which I think is quite exciting. In my opinion we are in far better shape, technically, to settle the whole Solar System than we were to land on the Moon in May 1961, when JFK issued his famous challenge. So now all we have to do is sell it to the public, who have to pay for it. I think the ISS shows the path for that too, as it needs to be an international undertaking, and has the potential to draw support from the whole human familly. Cheers, Wwheaton (talk) 18:30, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Dear Rsteilberg,

As a follow-up to our discussion on the future of space exploration and to the intervention of Wwheaton on both of our talk pages, I have started the Nautilus-X article. I thought you might be interested in enhancing the stub of this revolutionary spacecraft.

Xionbox^₪ 11:44, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Xionbox,

Thanks! I will look into it and possible attempt to contribute as mucha as to the best of my knowledge to get this stub on its merry way. Rsteilberg 04:51, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Would be happy to help...

...with Douglas S. Freeman High School.

It seems like a pretty good page already. What did you intend to fix about the article? -danjel (talk to me) 01:13, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

First task - get an image! It's surprising that quite often, students have access to the school, an eagerness to improve its wikipedia page, but... don't want to take and upload an image of the school? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 02:03, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Agree. Preferably a logo, but a photo of the school's facade is also OK. -danjel (talk to me) 02:08, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Oh, good point. It's maybe worth mentioning in that context, that if you can get a copy of the logo / graphic / shield / crest, then fair use is normally effective even regardless of the exact circumstances under which the image was obtained. Personally I sometimes prefer a photographic image because at least then you know that you have taken it yourself and you can license it exactly right (which is better than just "fair use"). --Demiurge1000 (talk) 02:55, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Oh, don't worry. I've got logos, front pictures, everything. I go to the school you know! Here's the website for the school- <http://www.henrico.k12.va.us/hs/freeman/>.

OK, so get the logo/images in first, then we can go from there. I've watched the page, so I'll note down any changes that you're making. Instructions on how to get it done are at WP:IMAGE, and you can upload from Special:Upload.

Are you doing this for a project at school? I'm a teacher, so I like to know these things... :Þ

Oh, and make sure you sign your posts by typing ~~~~ whenever you're done typing a reply on a talk page (even your own). -danjel (talk to me) 03:30, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Even if you take a picture of a logo, it is still copyrighted and would still need to have a fair-use rationale on it. Taking a picture of a logo and then uploading it is no different than uploading the actual logo graphic. --JonRidinger (talk) 18:34, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Actually no, I'm not doing it as a project. I'm a freshman at the school and just have an almost nationalistic type feeling for the school- although it's a school, not a country. I'm in their Leadership program. Also, I will make sure to sign the posts with a ~~~~. Thanks for the instructions, I will check those out tomorrow morning-ish when I have more time to get the edits on a full scale. Rsteilberg 03:37, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Cool-oh. Get in touch if you need anything. -danjel (talk to me) 03:44, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Having troubles with the copyright issues... as you may be able to see, I got the picture up there but I'm not sure how long it'll last. Rsteilberg 18:37, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

I would take the picture out for now until a public domain version can be uploaded. Surely you or someone you know has access to a digital camera and can get at least one picture of the school now or soon. It is not so critical to have an image *right now* that we have to ignore copyright. Because the building is still standing, there is no fair-use rationale for using the image from the website, so it will likely end up getting deleted. --JonRidinger (talk) 18:44, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Sounds good. I will delete it when the free time arises, and work on getting a picture of the school myself.

When you get to the point of being ready to upload your own pictures, feel free to contact me. I can help you upload them to the Wikimedia Commons and then you can not only use what you need in the article, but keep the images (including those that may not fit in the article) in a specific Freeman High School category. --JonRidinger (talk) 18:52, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Hello, Rsteilberg. You have new messages at Danjel's talk page.

Trouted

Whack! You've been whacked with a wet trout. Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

You have been trouted per your request and also since you enjoy some slimy wet fish to the face :P STATic message me! 00:58, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

YES! Thank you! Rsteilberg 15:13, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Congratulations!

You've been vandalised! I've reverted it for you ;) By the way, would you like a hand with your userpage/user talk page? I can possible point you in the right direction. Have a look at mine if you're interested. Worm^TT · (talk) 14:27, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

User page

Mines pretty simple, though I pinched it shamelessly from User:VictorianMutant.

It involves transcluding some tabs from User:Worm That Turned/Tabs. My tabs page includes all the little icons from the top. (Transcluding, in case you didn't know, means using the curly braces {{User:Worm That Turned/Tabs}} to make a page appear on another page). After that, I use the following code <div style="background-color: #e7efef; padding: 0.5em; border: groove 4px darkcyan; -moz-border-radius: 12px;"> Which produces

As long as you close it with a </div> at the end, it will work for you well. You can change colours by updating the background-color and the border. Worm^TT · (talk) 12:29, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Colours are pretty easy, you just need to know the "RGB code". sites like this can help there Worm^TT · (talk) 16:39, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Thank you greatly. Rsteilberg 18:16, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Glad I can help. As for the how to remove the user, wellllll that's magic that is. A magic word anyway - display title. Basically, you can set the "displaytitle" to any wikipedia page so you can have it render differently. Pages like eBay or iPod use it, so the first letter isn't automatically capitalised. It MUST render the same to the html reader, but it will allow you to make bits invisible, using the display property. Make any sense? Well, luckily it doesn't have to, because I have been lovely and done it for you.

{{DISPLAYTITLE:<span style="display:none;">User:</span>Rsteilberg}}

Copy and paste it to your user page. Worm^TT · (talk) 20:04, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

My only problem is, can you only remove the "User:" prefix? I want to rename my talk page to "Rsteilberg's talk page." Rsteilberg 18:26, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Unfortunately not. As I mentioned above, all we can do is render what's there differently, including making it invisible or changing to capitals etc, however we cannot actually add anything or take anything away. So it would be possible to change it to "Talk: Rsteilberg" but not "Rsteilberg's talk page". Thanks for the barnstar by the way. Worm^TT · (talk) 08:08, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Re: Thanks

Always glad to help. Thanks for the barnstar! Gscshoyru (talk) 13:37, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Copyright

Just to let you know, only works from the Federal Government fall into the public domain. Works from a local school district and even state-level governments do not fall into public domain, so the picture will likely get deleted again since A) it's copyrighted, B) it isn't clearly in the public domain, and C) a free version can easily be obtained. I'd also argue you can get a MUCH better picture than what's there anyway with better lighting and higher resolution. Again, it's not a crime to not have a picture right away. It's far better to not have a picture than to have one that is in violation of Wikipedia policies. --JonRidinger (talk) 15:55, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. I haven't yet had the opportunity to take a picture myself (I probably will be able to over the summer when students aren't loitering around the campus) but I will get to it eventually. Rsteilberg 15:57, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Just make sure the sun is illuminating the building and is behind the photographer and not in the background of the picture itself like in the current picture. Looks like it was taken in the morning or evening depending on which direction the building faces, so the sun is just above the edge of the picture, putting the building in shadows. --JonRidinger (talk) 16:04, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Thank you from me too for reverting vandalism on my talk page! I'm the third person today to thank you for reverting the vandalism done by the same user who was vandalizing several user pages and their talk pages. I don't know what that vandal wants to achieve but he sounds like he has nothing better to do; I remember you reverted the same person's vandalism on my talk page last month. Anyways, check out the barnstar I gave you here for reverting vandalism on my talk page! November Hotel Romeo Hotel Sierra Two Zero One Zero ✈ 03:27, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

No problem, I've had this guy on my watch list ever since he wrote extremely profane comments all over my user page. He has seem to taken a liking to your user page, NHRHS2010. —Rsteilberg ^talk 12:43, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

I agree with you. Based on his edit history I saw him vandalize the userpages of myself, you, Wikipelli, Golgofrinchian, Bped1985, E2eamon, Julle, Seaphoto, SuperHamster, Danjel and even Jimbo Wales. So 11 of us (including Jimbo) were hit by that vandal. I also did have a discussion with the blocking admin about the situation. I don't know where that vandal came from but chances are that either he used a different IP address and got warned by us, or he posted a retarded comment on one of my YouTube videos and decided to continue harassing me and went onto Wikipedia and then target other users. I don't know what he's trying to achieve by doing this. November Hotel Romeo Hotel Sierra Two Zero One Zero ✈ 19:28, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

What I suspect is that this is a high school IP; the edits are very inappropriate and they are extremely constant. For example, my high school (Douglas S. Freeman High School) has one shared IP; if one student causes for the IP to be blocked, then the 1200 other students and faculty are also blocked from editing on their own respective laptop computers. Other than that, I'm really not sure but I am keeping a close lookout on his contributions. —Rsteilberg ^talk 22:18, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

Well checked WHOIS and the vandal IP does not appear to belong to any school or library. I am an alumni of Northern Highlands Regional High School and its IP address has a long history of vandalism since 2004. The block log is also long and it once even had a checkuser block due to some kid with apparent OCD has used it. November Hotel Romeo Hotel Sierra Two Zero One Zero ✈ 23:04, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

Images issue

{{helpme}} I have two images on my main userpage which are the same size. However, their placement will depend on whether the user viewing the page has a widescreen or non-widescreen computer screen. When a user views my userpage who owns a computer with a non-widescreen display, the two images are pushed to the bottom of the userpage as it seem to get in the way of my userboxes. Any help is appreciated, —Rsteilberg ^talk 22:30, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

When you view it that way are they still aligned vertical just outside the over all box scheme? Trying to help, _{@ d \/\/ | | |}^Talk 00:18, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

They are usually next to the line of userboxes on my page under my wiki-philosophy paragraph, but they are moved all the way under the group of userboxes. I think they are too big or something that they can't fit next to the userboxes. They are still aligned, but under the box scheme and not floating. —Rsteilberg ^talk 01:17, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Firstly, this is a userpage issue and therefore not very important :) Focus on articles and building the encyclopedia, remember. Secondly, you should try using some floating divs or a table. The latter is less preferable IMO because it's annoying accessibility-wise, but it'll likely be easier. /ƒETCHCOMMS/ 02:31, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Sorry I've been away for the weekend. Have you considered just making the image smaller? Otherwise, you'll be looking at some proper design work, such as the ones that Fetchcomms is suggesting. You'll need to do a little research on floating divs, I expect! Worm^TT · (talk) 08:08, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Abandon (band) edit

I recently watched a video in which Abandon (band) explained that Joshua 22:3 is NOT their theme or namesake verse and that someone had assumed Joshua 22:3 was their verse simply because "abandon" was in the verse.

Thanks. I and at least two other very experienced editors are carefully watching each edit in the article for over a year.

Here's how you can do so: 1. Select the latest CC BY SA publications for which no articles have been created yet available here: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_United_Nations/Open_Access_text/Education_publications 2. Follow the instructions available here: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Help:Adding_open_license_text_to_Wikipedia 3. Add the text to Wikipedia (either by creating new articles or adding content to existing ones). Since these are available under CC BY SA, you can copy/paste content and/or edit if need be. 4. Attribute the text using the 'Free-content attribution' template in the 'Sources' section. 5. Add your contribution in the table here: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_United_Nations/Open_Access_text/Education_publications Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! Looking forward to working with you on enriching Wikipedia, one article at a time:)! C.recalde   — Preceding unsigned comment added by C.recalde (talk • contribs) 10:56, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
