[edit] AFD Helper

Thanks for the feedback. Yes I've been thinking about putting the signature in for a while and, although it's easy, hadn't got around to it. So now it's done, but you'll need to refresh this page first to get the effect. jnothman ^talk 00:07, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Looking for an honest opinion

I'm working on the article motorized bicycle. I created a timeline. It is nominated for deletions. I was wondering if you could give me your opinion of the subject either at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Timeline of Motorized bicycle history or on my user talk page. Thank you. (p.s.: love the some of your categories, I stole you idea and put some on my user page.) --CyclePat 01:43, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Timeline

I have made a suggestion at Talk:Timeline of Motorized bicycle history. Responses there, please. - Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] (W) AfD? 18:28, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Featured article for December 25th

I noticed you have listed yourself in Category:Atheist Wikipedians. That said, you will probably be interested in my suggested featured article for December 25th: Omnipotence paradox. The other suggestion being supported by others for that date is Christmas, although Raul654 has historically been against featuring articles on the same day as their anniversary/holiday. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-11-28 08:18

[edit] New user box

Hello Hitchhiker89, Im SWD316. Im giving you the user box for your user page called Template:User Member. It's a user box that says your a member of the AWWDMBJ.... Hope you like it! — Moe ε 03:37, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of 'liberal wikipedians' category

Hi. I saw you're (like me) listed in this category which is up for deletion. Hoped you'd like to vote in favor of keeping it... Thanks! Larix 23:40, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for spreading the word on this one - I'll defend against any attempt to cut down on the number of pastel coloured boxes on my user page. Ironically, this is the first time I've been asked to vote based on my political categorisation... --Hitchhiker89 09:58, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

My pleasure, thanks for the voting! If you love those coloured boxes, perhaps you'd like to add the {{user humanist}} userbox I just made? If it corresponds to your beliefs, of course. :) Larix 10:59, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi Hitchhiker. To thank you for helping to defend 'Category:Wikipedians by politics,' and your support after I was charged with vote-rigging, I would like to award you the Outspoken Barnstars. Because it says ´no-edit' on your user page, I'm putting them here. Thank you! Larix 12:44, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

And thanks again for the flower :) Larix 15:15, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] User categories

Hi again! I wanted to inform you there is a vote going on about wether it should be allowed to list yourself in a POV category. It's basically the same question as when they wanted to delete 'wikipedians by politics' but now they want to make it policy. This is the link: Wikipedia:Proposed_policy_on_userboxes#Comments_and_Voting Please vote! Larix 20:41, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
