cogito, ergo sum

I think, therefore I am. That is what the title of both my personal page and user talk page pages. This is my user talk page, so therefore, feel free to leave queries, messages or even have a conversation with me. Leave Me A Message!

The below are divided by name for organization. Do not worry about creating your own section or putting your comment in the correct section, I will do that myself. =].

InfluenceUs Log

I would ask this question to Saad. He can tell you if that will cause any problem for any reason. Really dev should have that page auto-archive. Maybe suggest that Saad make that happen with dev? TedErnst (talk) 16:40, 19 April 2008 (PDT)


Hi Nick,

Priorities have changed among the staff, leaving less time to maintain RecentVistors. The change is definitely there, just not intentional, rather from lack of attention. I have actually been advocating killing it entirely. What do you think?

Belated reply to this

I'm honored and glad that you're happy about me getting you sick ;) I absolutely love the left picture in your trio there - yes! Kristina .talk. .chat.

p.s. Yay to medical research and equality, and even though I don't really know what universal knowledge means I don't think it doesn't sound like it could be bad any way you slice it.

Magic?

I was wondering if you could work some image/template magic for me? I like to show Template:MainPageNav1-fr to the Frenchies and it looks pretty sad since Compost Us. I have no idea how to fix this, but I'm assuming it's possible and that you may be the type that would know how. Best, Kristina (contact me) 16:39, 22 April 2008 (PDT)

hi

Sorry

I think there must be some sort of bug in online talk page notifications because I don't get emails, but today I finally got the yellow thingy to discover that I had three messages I hadn't seen before... Anyway, I got your message and I think that is cool. Pretty poetic, I like it. Kristina (contact me) 15:31, 23 May 2008 (PDT)

Ooh, thanks for the comment on my baby blog! (And pparently I'm syndicated now or something, haha... check out http://blog.aboutus.org.) You rock! Kristina (contact me) 14:31, 28 June 2008 (PDT)

Nick, I started sending you a monthly check of $25 a few months ago. Now I am getting too much mail from you requesting money for "American Families" or for the "Children". I am a retired person with limited income. I can't help but think your organization is spending a lot of money sending all these notices asking for money. At one point I sent a note with a check telling you I would be sending a check as long as I could. Now I am asking you to stop sending me all these pleads for help when I am already sending what I can and doing so regularly.

Do you do these types of mailing to everyone who already is sending you money? If so, in my opinion you are wasting a lot of money. Please don't saturate people with this sort of thing when they are already donating what they can. If I keep getting mail like this, I will find another charity to donate my money to.

In Jesus Name.....Shirley Harrell

hello hi nik how are you -- User:kimoo1984


Hi Nick, Sorry I didn't get back to you. I'm Jan the author of Janoose the Goose. Thanks for the welcome. I love it here. The Janoose page is my second. J.D. Holiday is my own page. Write back when you can, JanJan

Hi Nick

Nick, thanks for the notes to Janoose the Goose. I hope you get a chance to go there again and look around. I seem to have messed up Janoose's talk page. (I have messed up my talk page before and Sa'ad had to help me then. There are some things I understand and can do, and some things I don't understand and do anyway which sometimes go very wrong. Like this!) I was able to redirect Janoose's talk page to my talk page: J.D. Holiday so I can get messages and it seems to work but could use some advice. If you think it's okay the way I have it now then we can leave it that way. Thanks, JanJan

Thanks, Nick

Nick, Thanks for helping. I do like it to redirect to my J.D. Holiday page but have I done it right? Yes, if you think it needs some help Please do what you think it needs. Have a great day yourself! JanJan

My stories

Thanks, Nick.

I have 12 stories of my own to publish and it will take me some time to do them because I have to paint the pictures for them. It's nice of you to take an interest! Thanks for the help and the compliment! Bests, JanJan

Okay

Thanks, Nick! Jan

That's sweet of you!

Nick, don't worry. I'm just getting started and it's sweet of you to want to buy my books but first take care of yourself. There will, I believe, always be books to buy and read. I'll talk to you later! Sincerely, Jan

Nick, I'm thinking that User:Vinh Nguyen would be in a better position to help with this, let me know if you're able to get what you need from him, thanks - Ray | talk 11:19, 21 July 2008 (PDT)

feature me

We killed it due to lack of community interest and staff time. You're welcome to give it another go. I'm sure we can find a place on the homepage to list stuff. Maybe mock that up first? TedErnst (talk) 11:12, 23 July 2008 (PDT)

Thank you

Thank you very much  :)

Cycle Route Planner

Hi Nick,

This is the second attempt at getting a message to you. I have just compliled a letter that has now disappeared without trace? I'll write it again and attempt to get it to you. Quil Forbes devised a website whereby you could key in ie: your postcode or address (From) then the postcode address you are going to and the website would do you a detailed map of how to get there by bike including bike crossings back street routes avoiding the heavy traffic. cycles.net was the name of the website and I've been using it for the last 4yrs in and around London. It has been simply invaluable to me and now it has disappeared without trace? Can anyone throw any light on this or has access to a similar website or even a Satellite Navigation system that can do all this? Please anyone out there with any ideas. I love cycling around London but would like to do it as safely as possibe.

Kind Regards,

Marion

You

Hi Nick, Just want to drop you a note to see how you are. How are you feeling? I read about your surgery. Hope you are doing well. I'm good.

Write when you can, Jan PS I'll be away for a few days this week. Peace.

FYI

I just noticed this. (I've noted the bug myself as well and I've told dev.) Kristina (contact me) 12:14, 3 October 2008 (PDT)

Hi Nick

Hi Nick, Just wanted to say hello. We haven't talked for a while and I hope you are well. Your friend, Jan J.D. Holiday

Your welocme letter was exceptional! Thank you for that... you are a great writer, keep it up!

I'm Fine!

Hi Nick, I understand completely. You've had major surgery so that takes time, just go with it. And I don't think I could do without a PC now. I'd be lost! PERIOD. Are you back to work or school? I'm working on getting another one of my books published. And I'm thinking about putting an ad on ABOUT US when that book is released, but I can't remember what the cost would be and can't find the info here. Oh, well, I'll keep looking for the info. AboutUs has been GREAT at getting my book listed everywhere! Write when you can, Jan

Just think!

If it wasn't for AboutUs, we wouldn't have met, and I wouldn't have you as a good friend. I'll give them credit for that at least ;) Without my friends, I'd be nothing up a creek without a paddle. — Nathan 01:03, 22 October 2008 (PDT)

Use your picture?

Hey Nick, Mark and I were wondering if we could include a picture of you that would link to your personal page along the bottom of the next newsletter? Best, Kristina (contact me) 15:41, 23 October 2008 (PDT)

Election Portal

Hey, which news source of you using to update the info? Eric Wester 19:04, 4 November 2008 (PST)

Okay, Nick.

Things are going okay. Janoose Has been a Amazon's hottest New Releases list and there best sellers list. Which is good with the economy so bad. Have you a computer now? Write when you can, Jan

Thanks, Nick!

Thank you, Nick. I feel good about it. But you can STILL call me Jan!

Domain page

Dear Nick,

I cannot find the way to create a domain page. All the changes that I can are related to the personal page. Can you help me? What should I do?

Thank you and best regards,

Sysops

Thanks for the greet, I've been watching this site develop over the years and jump in and fix things whenever I see something that needs doing and having the sysops rights makes that so much easier Icon_Cool.gif, I've noticed that most people on this site are really friendly and more than willing to help where needed, you appear to have been on this since forever, lol NathanJ (talk)

Jennifer White-Swan

Hi Nick

I have just signed up to 'easiest home business ever' so I am all new to this. I am still not sure what I have to do for this business, I am still trying to find out what I have to do to make this a success. I will probably need a web site at some stage and that is one subject I do not know, so eventually I may need your assistants.Or you may be able to help me. Hope you have a lot of patients?

Thanking You Jenny

Ahearingaid.com

Nick, I made a comment about ahearingaid.com earlier that was incorrect. I had the wrong company and I would like my comment deleted. Can you do this for me, or do you need to tell me how? Thanks, Richard Kauffman

You are some kid Nick!

What a great welcome email.. it really reinforces the good vibe people have about .. about us. haha

Keep up the positive outlook on all things ... I do the same thing.. see life with optimism ..

You must be an old soul.. that happens when you see the big picture of life for the wonder it truly is.... It is too few people that see the world in terms of the great and incredible wonder it is... It is a gift we all have.. but seldom tap into...

And yes AboutUs is a great and wonderful site... you weren't likely a victim of DMOZ, the main Directory listing site, site full of self important editors, that rejected most websites for inclusion (amid controversy that editors were possibly in catagories to block competitors from listings of fields they had interest in etc..) .. even mine... a small business serving my community for many years...

About Us is fun, new, inclusive, open to all... and that's what makes it great... Your friendly welcome notes are exactly what AboutUs should have!

Be well!

Tracy

Thanks for the feedback Nick. Most of what I submitted is on my website and flickr.com. Just bio info for those looking for background. Thanks for the contact info. Lee

Thanks for the warm welcome! :)

Thank you Nick for the warm welcome and the useful suggestions! I look forward to seeing how I can contribute to this community.

Thanks for removing the 'default' on ArtsieLadie.com. :)

What image or portrait of do I place on the wiki page? A screen capture that represents the site to be the thumbnail?

I noticed on a couple other wiki pages there are external links, like on ElfTown.com's wiki, it has: http://whois.domaintools.com/elftown.com link listed under 'external links'. For ArtsieLadie.com there's one for as well: http://whois.domaintools.com/artsieladie.com

I'm assuming this is the correct way to talk or message each other here the way I am doing it, unless I get chat?

I hope I'm not asking silly questions. :P
