Austràlia

I saw your note on the Austràlia category page. There were only two domains using that as a category, and they both had the proper Australia as a category as well, so I removed the "Austràlia" category from them and will simply delete the category. Great find! Thanks for the help! DrewMyers | talk 21:56, 3 July 2007 (PDT)

Oceanía

Thanks for the note, but for some reason the system won't allow name changes on categories. I could delete it, since Category Oceania already exists, but there may be some information that gets lost in the process. What do you think? Isabel

Hi, we have a function for this- move tab on the top of the page. thanks and Welcome to the wiki. best, Kasey 11:54, 5 July 2007 (PDT)

The move tab only works for articles, not categories. Categories need to be dealt with by someone with higher access levels. --TenguTech | talk 06:49, 8 July 2007 (PDT)

Hello again, My response above Re: Move wasn't very helpful, sorry about that-different tract. Some Categories were auto generated, some by hand; some are way too broad, others way too specific. #Redirect essentially moves page, but the key is (in the case of categories) to move with everything that links to the page as well. Category functionality would benefit from a sort of disambiguation page similiar to Tak when they are the same and need distinction. thank for you interest. best, Kasey 07:32, 8 July 2007 (PDT)

Hello

Hi, I added a category to you PersonalPage, please revert if you don't feel it appropriate yet. Also, it looks like you have some MediaWiki skills, we are a little different than Wikipedia and I look forward to learning wiki with you! :-) Best, MarkDilley

WhoWeAre

Hi,

I would just like to tell you about the WhoWeAre consensus poll. This is a unique opportunity for all community members to discuss and decide what AboutUs is and more importantly what role we, the community, plays.

The discussion is still in its initial stages and there are a handful of people involved in this discussion. But it's not enough. Every one of us has a stake in this process. We all need to air our views. Our opinions will make a difference. We cannot and must not let a handful of people define us. We must speak out and contribute because we are being defined and I for one would like to have a say in how I am being defined.

Please contribute to this really important project. Without you it cannot successfully create a good definition of who we are. Tanwir Shah

AnnualCommunityReview

Hi, would like to invite you to participate in some conference calls we are having. I think it would be great if you would like to participate :-) Best, MarkDilley

NewSkin Beta Preview

Hello TenguTech!

We've noticed your contributions and are glad to be on the AboutUs team with you! As an ActiveMember your energy and ideas determine our future direction. One way that ActiveMembers stay "in the loop" is to participate in the beta previews of large new changes to the site before they are generally released.

Today we're starting a limited beta preview of an earthy NewSkin intended to reflect the alive and growing AboutUs community. The NewSkin is designed to feel wholesome and connected with the real world. This choice was made to reassure the many folks who feel that the internet is a "scary place" where mean people hide behind fake identities and shout insults at each other. We hope that the NewSkin evokes our values in a way that helps visitors and members alike feel grounded in true community.

We'd love your help putting the NewSkin through its paces! To give it a whirl you'll need to be logged in. Once you are logged in, go to "my preferences" | "skin" and select "design". Don't forget to then click the "save" button! You can always go back to the current skin by selecting "aboutus" via the same steps.

Your feedback on the new look for aboutus will help ensure that it has a maximally positive impact when we roll it out. Thanks for being a valuable member of the community, we look forward to your feedback on the NewSkin page!

Warm Regards,
the DevelopmentTeam

RPGA

All I remember doing is actually removing something like Rpga and RPGA from the "Related Categories" of the same as they were blacked and not linking because they were the same as the category they were in. Um, categories here now that have the same letters but different capitalization or plus or minus a space all redirect to the same place automatically so I don't follow some of what you're saying. Click Category:RPGA and Category:Rpga and Category:R PGA to see what I mean. If you want to jump in the AboutUs WebIRC we could chat about this. Best, Kristina ..talk.. 13:31, 4 December 2007 (PST)

Hello :-)

Hi, I appreciate your looking out for me! I actually don't use time stamps much - WikiNow and all. I will try to use them on your talk page though. Best, MarkDilley 14:49, 7 December 2007 (PST)
