Hi Kristina,

thanks so much for contacting me. I am so incredibly new with all this, and am still not sure if I should be a member of AboutUs. I wonder if you would clarify this for me, because I am getting the impression that members have either a business or are professional in some way. I am neither. What attracted me to AboutUs is I follow Dr Bulger's career (careprovider and consulting) and I really go nuts when I see he's left typo's!! I loved the idea that I could go in and just tidy his site up a bit ( and definitely not change anything but typos and spelling errors.)

I am now thinking I shouldn't belong to this group just because I want to tidy up!

I am not professional and have no business. Does this matter? Many thanks

Becky Mason

You certainly belong here at AboutUs.org if you would like to be here. There is a very broad range of people that edit this wiki and there are certainly no limitations or preferences towards any sort of group of people. You can take a look at our active members to see what I mean - they are a very broad mix of people that contribute regularly here for various reasons and on various projects. There are many ways to contribute here: working on DomainPages or your own PersonalPage, creating a Portal or WikiPage about something that interests you (see Portal:Swing Dancing that I'm working on), helping out in many ways around the wiki, plus AboutUs can be a great place to learn more about wiki. You can check out Special:RecentChanges to see the most recent edits made and what people are working on at AboutUs. If you haven't seen it yet I think the WikiTour may help to explain myself better. I look forward to seeing you around the site working on whatever you would like - don't be afraid to contribute anywhere, if you have something to offer to the page go for it!

Kristina, I didn't see your response here before the email exchange from today, and I'm guessing Becky didn't see it either. peace, TedErnst | talk 09:32, 19 September 2007 (PDT)

RE: blanking out spam and fraud sites

Hello Kristina,

I would like to contribute to aboutus in the most responsible way possible.

I've taken to blank out the fraud sites' entries for the following reasons:

1. So as to remove the adult content from the aboutus entry.

2. The particular sites I've been tagging are usually stolen domains, using stolen DNS servers, so aboutus's thumbnail function is actually using the unfortunate stolen sites' bandwidth.

Perhaps we could develop a template that allows us to keep the whois and other tracking info on the page, and keeps out the replusive and repetive advertising text and site images.

I'll stop blanking out the pages until I have a chance to check this out.

Thanks for the feedback. --Cosmik7415 06:14, 18 September 2007 (PDT)

Welcoming IRC

I was talking with Ted this morning about welcomes and he thought that we should check in on IRC to see who is doing it so there are no conflicts. I didn't think this was a bad idea. That way if there was 2 people one could work the front page for new users while the other checks recent changes for contributing ones. If there is only one then that person can handle both.--DannyG | talk 11:42, 18 September 2007 (PDT)

deborahcassidy.com

We accidentally went here before our new site was completed. Could you please delete the page for Deborah Cassidy.com and rescrub it with the current information: www.deborahcassidy.com

If you take a moment you will see the new site does not match the current site. Your assistance would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Deborah

Hello Kristina,

Thanks for the welcome message!

I did create a page about my web site (http://www.aboutus.org/World_of_Clean) but when I use the search box it is not found. I get the message "There is no page titled "world of clean". You can create this page."

When I click on the link in that sentence I am taken to the page that I have just been told does not exist!!!

Hello

Hi Kristina, Well we are done with the captcha thing, and it will be up on the server in a day or two. Let us know what you think. --Hassan Javeed

Hey Kristina!

Thanks a lot. Weird i never checked my talk page...(which explains the very late reply!) Yep ... most of the stuff on my home page is related to work. And you were spot on guessing my position in this company :) But hopefully you'll see some interesting changes when i update my page! I guess i'll catch you around soon.. Cheers Ghufran

hello from Applenac.com

Hello I noticed you viewed our About us page. I've recently noticed that while using the Apple (Safari) browser, that words appear jumbled. All "v" letters are replaced with "d" letters. Also while using Firefox I've noticed and only recently that the font on your site appears gritty and small. Can you explain?

Hello

Thank you for welcoming me so fast... I just signed up and accidently made 2 accounts. MHodge and Proudparent2. I would like to delete the Proudparent2 screenname but am unsure on how to do this. If you would be able to assist with this, it would be appreciated. Bryan Daugherty is my boyfriend, but he is unavailable to help me at this time. Hopefully in the future he will be able to teach me the in's and outs of this website and I won't have to ask for help. But thank you for welcoming me, it is greatly appreciated! Proudparent2/MHodge

Thanks

Well I am not very computer literate, but with time hopefully I will be able to contribute! Thank you! Proudparent2/MHodge

Hi Kristina,

Thank you so much for the welcome message. My real name is Juliet and I'm doing a wiki page for an attorney, so I don't know if it's appropriate to use my real name, although I want to be respectful of the rules. I LOVE aboutus.org! Is this message private, or can everybody see it? Thanks so much! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sandiegodefense (talk • contribs) .

Thank you for your message. I think aboutus.org is a great idea. I hope it will get better and better over time. Greetings and good luck!

Hiya Kristina

I was about to revert that advertising link on Google.com and you got it first ;-) --User:Di | talk 23:48, 29 September 2007 (PDT)

That's great! It's really great to have you helping out, by the way... you're awesome! KristinaWeis 23:54, 29 September 2007 (PDT)

schedule this week?

Kristina, I'd love to schedule some time for pairing this week. What you're schedule look like? TedErnst | talk 08:12, 30 September 2007 (PDT)

Tuesday works. I'm also available outside office hours this week if that works better. I'm looking forward to it! TedErnst | talk 10:44, 30 September 2007 (PDT)

thanks for the kind welcome note

Hi Kristina, thanks a lot for the message you´ve dropped. I feel really astonished by the sofistication of the available tools and how fastly and effciently they work. I feel I need to take a deeper look to all the functions and features to get up to date.The sooner the better. I´ll keep in touch, maybe I can drop some ideas in the close future.

Best regards

Enrique

Sure Enrique - that sounds great. Let me know if I can help with anything and have fun exploring! KristinaWeis 18:34, 30 September 2007 (PDT)

community team gone

yes, might've been a bit rash - we've barely begun a conversation here: Category talk:CommunityMember and then made the DailyBuzz post tonight and didn't know how to sign it - one thing lead to another - sorry to be so surprizing - please chime in on the conversation - change is still cheap and this might not yet be right TedErnst | talk 23:52, 30 September 2007 (PDT)

User talk:Vietsmall

Hey Kristina, This User has been making some Templates. Is this okay? seems odd to me for a fairly new user to do this --User:Di | talk 07:24, 1 October 2007 (PDT)

Looking at Special:Contributions/Vietsmall I don't believe I see what you're saying about this new user creating templates...? KristinaWeis 10:30, 1 October 2007 (PDT)
Oh crazy! I just noticed via my watchlist that somehow the capitalization of the S yields a different user's contributions. Check out Special:Contributions/VietSmall vs. Special:Contributions/Vietsmall... but note that User talk:Vietsmall and User talk:VietSmall both redirect to the lowercase "s". You're right, it looks like some of his edits to existing templates are less than constructive - I'm fixing Template:Review right now. I am just in between classes right now, so I can't be too thorough but if you notice this sort of external linking to a template that doesn't seem helpful I'd revert it. I've left a TalkPage message on User talk:Vietsmall, but I'm not certain this will go through because of the capitalization issue. Thanks for spotting that and asking me! Let me know if there are any further developments on this. KristinaWeis 10:40, 1 October 2007 (PDT)

WikiWednesday

Hey Kristina,

Just wanted to make sure you were invited to the WikiWednesday event at AboutUs this Wednesday (Oct. 3), at 6:30 p.m.

I've put up details in the recent Weblog post. We're also wondering if you can invite your Wikia friend (the programmer guy who came to lunch with us that one day) to the event, and if he knows other Wiki-people (or just people interested in learning more), they're more than welcome as well.

Tak

your sig

don't you have a custom sig? I saw this edit [1] which shouldn't be necessary if you have your sig correct in your preferences TedErnst | talk 21:59, 1 October 2007 (PDT)

Adult Image

Hi. Ok sorry for the adult content I have uploaded, I'll keep that in mind. Is there a way to still display a picture gallery on the site profile but let's say I host the image on my site? Or is there another way to do show some site sample in here in a gallery view or something?

Btw you got a great network...

Mayaboy69 05:18, 2 October 2007 (PDT)


Dear Christina!

All these websites I connoted with "see GOOGLE or YAHOO" do exist!! Try for example RU.SEARCH.YAHOO.COM or SE.YAHOO.COM. Yesterday night ABOUTUS.COM didn't work at all. Many sites you allready have, you couldn't find. SQIPERIA-ETNIC f.e. is the most important newspaper in Albania. All Googls and Yaoos find it; why not ABOUTUS.COM?

Thanks for your patience. You look charming!Omenvorte 22:53, 2 October 2007 (PDT)
