Hello Pietaster, welcome to Wikipedia!

I noticed nobody had said hi yet... Hi!

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

You might like some of these links and tips:

• some General guidance.
• Tutorial and the Manual of Style.
• Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
• Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
• Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
• Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
• Use the Show preview button
• Provide an Edit summary
• Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
• Take a look at Consensus of standards
• Create a User page

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alf ^melmac 10:51, 27 November 2005 (UTC).[reply]

I replied to you about the album on my talk page. If you wish to send out a reply, please do so! Alex 101 22:53, 25 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, again! Since you mostly edit on Bad Religion-related articles, are you a fan of them, are they your favorite band or something; just curious. Alex 101 15:48, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see. Wow, OK. Yeah, punk rock is my most favorite genre of all time. Bands I like other than Bad Religion are: The Offspring, Sick Of It All, Black Flag, Life of Agony (they're metal), Ugly Kid Joe (they're metal, too!), Green Day, Sublime, Dead Kennedys and blink-182. You should probably see my list of favorite albums, if interested, talk to you later my friend! Alex 101 18:27, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I saw the spelling change you made on the Mighty Mighty Bosstones article - it's a good catch. Though in the future, can you enter an Edit Summary so we can quickly see what you did without looking at the diff? --Matt 12:35, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi I’m reZa ghamemi. Tnx for refresh and add me my page to Wikipedia ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Rezaghasemi2012 (talk) 05:34, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please add on my biography medal. Silver medal 60 metr Asian beach games 2016 in Vietnam Rezaghasemi2012 (talk) 05:37, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, added that and the 2014 edition too. Cheers. Pietaster (talk) 16:44, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've noticed that you're still using the Template:Album_infobox_2 template in album articles you've created. That template has been deleted (after a lengthy discussion/dispute), and references to it now redirect to Template:Album_infobox. You may find it easier to use the simpler Template:Album_infobox when creating articles. Monicasdude 18:43, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, again. Since you like Bad Religion, I think you should try adding Template:User Bad Religion to your userbox. Alex 101 05:24, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You should always give a reason why you think an article should be deleted - use {{db|reason}}, instead of plain {{delete}} tag. Deletion tag can be found here Wikipedia:Template messages/Deletion. Keep up the good work (Rohit Singh 20:44, 16 February 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Hi Pietaster. I noticed that you make a bunch of helpful contributions to Wikipedia and Lyriki, so I was hoping you could pop over to LyricWiki.org and check it out and hopefully join our community. I used a bot to fill it up with a really solid base of songs, but there is still a ton of room for improvement.
Hope you like it (sorry for bugging you otherwise)!

Category:Albums by number categories up for deletion Categories for albums numbered third to fourteenth in Cat:Albums by number have been placed on CfD.

Well, they are a rock band. The reason I tried to specificy it in the first sentence is because "New Wave"/"ska" looks messy, and simply saying "rock" looks cleaner. The subsequent section then explains further their subgenre relations. For an example, see [[Nirvana (band)}. WesleyDodds 22:57, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just thought you'd be intrested in joining the project since you're a punk fan. Alex 22:13, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

He - thanks for all your contributions - but I'm afraid we don't link to lyrics sites unless they specifically have permission from the artists to post the lyrics, as it counts as linking to a copyright violation. Thanks! HawkerTyphoon 17:34, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Would you be intrested in joining a new project I just created? If so, just go directly here. I am also looking for other members who would like to join, even when they like punk rock or that they are just a musician. Alex 02:04, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

When you move a page and create a disambiguation page under the old title, please remember to fix the links leading to the old title so they lead to the correct page. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 18:27, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

Thanks for uploading some pictures to Wikipedia. I wanted to make sure you were aware of some of the requirements and good practices for uploaded images.

• Pick an image name.

When uploading an image, pick a file name that is descriptive, and unique. Remember that many images may be uploaded about the same topic, and remember that names are case sensitive.

• Source the image.

On the image description page, explain where the image came from. If you created the image yourself, then say so. If it's from the web, give a URL. If it's a screenshot of a movie or game, or a scan from a book, give the title.

• Provide copyright and license information.

This part is a little bit trickier, but it's very important. The copyright of the image generally belongs to whomever created it.

If it's a photograph you took, or an image you created (modifying an image that already exists doesn't count) in software like Photoshop or GIMP, then you own the copyright. To upload it to Wikipedia, you must agree to license it under the GFDL (which allows anyone to use it, but requires that they give credit to the original author and requires that any further edit to the image be licensed under the GFDL as well) or release it into the public domain (which allows anyone to use it for any purpose without restriction.) Do this by placing an appropriate tag on the image description page, like {{GFDL}} or {{PD-self}}. Be sure to mention that you created the image. If you're using {{PD-self}}, you may also want to use {{NoRightsReserved}}, since there is some dispute as to whether one may grant items into the public domain.

If you didn't create the image, or the copyright somehow belongs to another party (like a screenshot, which you might "create", but the copyright belongs to the author of the movie or video game), then you need to find another tag that describes the copyright status of the image. Images used on Wikipedia need to be free for our use and the use of sites which reproduce our content. This means that images cannot have a restriction such as "only for use by Wikipedia", or "for non-commercial use only", or "for educational use". Images without a free license may be usable in certain articles under fair use, but such a use should be justified on the image description page.

• Describe the image.

To another reader, the image may not be immediately understood. A caption in an article doesn't explain the image to a visitor who sees it on its image page. Put a brief explanation of what is in the image on the image description page, similar to what you might include in a caption on an article.

Some links to Wikipedia pages on this subject:

Copyrights, Copyright tags, Fair use, Image description page, Public domain, Images for deletion, Possibly unfree images, Copyright problems, Uploading images

Thanks again for your contributions. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me at my talk page. – Riana ^ঋ 06:57, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there. I've noticed that you've been converting album review ratings to use stars. Please note that ratings not originally presented using stars should not be shown using them. See WP:ALBUM#Professional reviews. Have a nice day. --PEJL 21:32, 28 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I've seen you editing Powderfinger related articles, and would like to invite you to join WikiProject Powderfinger, an effort by Wikipedians to improve the band's coverage on the encyclopedia. Please consider signing up here.

Hello. Would you be interested in being part of the Bad Religion WikiProject? If so, click here. I'm also looking for other Wikipedians who are Bad Religion fans (or fans of punk rock) who could join as well. Alex 21:32, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see you've been putting in a lot of work and effort in organising the chronology of some bands. It may be helpful to take a quick look at the guidelines for this at Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums#Chronology and note that "Only studio albums (usually excluding live albums, compilations, singles and EPs) should be included in the chronology". It is only a guideline, my own personal preference would be for chornologies to include both studio and live albums, but including compilations I think skews the flow of the artists work. EPs are really classified as singles, rather than albums (i.e. they chart on singles charts, not album charts). — Drwhawkfan (talk) 08:54, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure that "most wikipedians seem to ignore [that guideline] anyway", I don't ever recall seeing EPs in album chronologies, and very rarely compilations. Perhaps you could raise your concerns about the guideline on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums, that's what it's there for, as we do need to have some consistency across wikipedia, whichever way. — Drwhawkfan (talk) 16:08, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So that's it, is it? You're going to continue to ignore guidelines, refuse to give justification for doing so, and see no reason to submit a proposal for an amendement to the guideline as you see fit? You need to reply here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums#Album chronology in infobox. You may also find this educational, Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Dates, and note that for non-US articles dates are usually presented in the format 14 February 1990. — Drwhawkfan (talk) 07:46, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You need to post your reply here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums#Album chronology in infobox, because if the guideline needs changing the people involved in the project need to know the arguments. As for dates, yes, it's no big deal, just something to bear in mind. — Drwhawkfan (talk) 08:13, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I should also add that I think you're doing an excellent job with your contributions. — Drwhawkfan (talk) 11:45, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How were you able to fix the Project Funk Da World - Craig Mack and Funkdafied - Da Brat entries at the 1994 in music article? I did everything correctly. 209.2.60.98 (talk) 19:05, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The number after rowspan indicates how many albums there are under certain date. If you want to add a new album to the table you also have to change that number. And BTW, please make an account if you want to discuss so people can respond on your own talk page. Pietaster (talk) 19:24, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The succession boxes that you're adding to album articles for UK #1s contains a formatting error: The dates in the central box should be separated by a spaced endash as per WP:DASH and not a hyphen. --JD554 (talk) 13:57, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nice! Henrydoktorski (talk) 21:57, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I notice that you are adding to both the above articles, either directly or via new discography entries. Which is fine - you may have noticed that I have been doing some 'improvement' work on the Cockney Rebel article. Whichever way I approach this subject, Harley and Cockney Rebel become intertwined and then not again, sometimes in the same sentence ! I would welcome your thoughts as to how to proceed, particularly with regard to listed discography in both / either article. I fear duplication or incompleteness, or both, either way !?! On a slightly separate issue, I see the deletionists are hovering over your new Poetic Justice article. Can you hold them off ? Regards,

A tag has been placed on Chinese records in athletics, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this..

The article Dick Cuthell has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

not notable - and also unsourced

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

I have nominated Rudeboys inna Ghetto, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rudeboys inna Ghetto. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

I didn't know they were not recognized by the federation. I took the records from the official IAAF handbook and they are certainly not made up. It's a bit strange that they lack official records for so many events, having some standard instead. Too bad you reverted everything, including valid recognized records. Pietaster (talk) 08:46, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Pietaster, hello DerbyCountyinNZ. I think, we have to decide, what the article is generelly about. In my opinion this article does not have the order to reflect the documents of AthleticsNZ, but first and foremost the best performances of New Zealand's athletes. I can not follow the rules of ANZ to accept a record, especially when ANZ doesn't but IAAF does. I recommend you to remove pietasters edits and delete "maintained by New Zealand's national athletics federation: Athletics New Zealand (ANZ)" in the head of the article. Keep the good work.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 23:33, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Do we still make those achievement tables? Why should the athletics coverage be of one-sentence articles + a table? Geschichte (talk) 12:28, 14 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Have we ever decided to abandon them? I think they are a useful summary of an athlete's career even if some of those competitions are also covered in the prose section. Similar tables are also used in biographies of sportspeople in different disciplines. I couldn't find too much information about this particular athlete so I kept it short but I'll try to write more sentences when creating similar articles if you think it's too little even for a stub.

Regarding this edit. I've reverted it and provided an explanation. I saw this earlier myself, but I've reviewed all the relevant official sources and all list Grace Ebor as the lead off runner of the men's 100m relay. Although this looks incorrect, it is possible as Nigeria's fourth runner withdrew due to injury and she may possibly have had to step in! I think this warrants more investigation (this is interesting!) but it's best to list what sources say. SFB 21:36, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've found an image of the relay team celebrating [3]. Definitely not Grace Ebor! The guy on the far left is the extra runner. I'll try to match the face. SFB 21:43, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for looking into this matter. I honestly don't know who this may be, although the face does look familiar. It is certainly not the hurdler Salim Nurudeen or 400m runner James Godday. Another possibility would be the long jumper, Tunde Suleiman, but I can't find any photos of him. Pietaster (talk) 22:42, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Got it! It was Peter Emelieze (confirmed on personal website too). Took me a while: the cross-race effect had me staring at various black men in green running strips for quite some time! I'll update the IAAF. SFB 17:56, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Serbian is not identical to Serbian Cyrillic, please educate yourself... Serbian uses both scripts. I think you already know that but you think that due to the fact that she's Slovenian her name should be in Serbian too. I fixed it, check it out.

Yes, I know the difference. The only reason I reverted your change was because it appeared to have broken the infobox template. It was probably a temporary technical problem though that is now resolved. But thanks for clearing things up in this article, those are some good changes. I only removed the latinica version since this is what we use throughout the article. Pietaster (talk) 20:19, 17 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Athletics events at the Commonwealth Games navigational boxes, which you created, has been nominated for possible deletion, merging, or renaming.

Hi Pietaster. In case you didn't notice on your watchlist, I've been busy the last couple of days building a new category structure. The content of Category:Events at athletics (track and field) competitions has been greatly expanded so we now have things like Category:100 metres at the African Championships in Athletics.

I still need to build the category structure for the Asian Games (and probably for the World Juniors if that keeps expanding), but I think I'll stop for now as all the major ones are done. I think we've needed these for a while now – the article base keeps growing and growing! If you can include these in your future event articles that would be great. Take care! SFB 20:53, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea and nicely done! I'll make sure to always include them. Cheers! Pietaster (talk) 21:33, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of 2000 Asian Athletics Championships – Women's 100 metres hurdles, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: 2000 Asian Athletics Championships – Women's 100 metres hurdles. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 19:49, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the intervention! I was just to about to do the same but I've never reported anyone, so it took me some time. The last stable version is actually this one. Could you update the report? Pietaster (talk) 22:12, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest, I've never done this before either. Sure, I'll update. I'm sure you can add a comment on the board if you wish. -- Kndimov (talk) 22:29, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
