Spoilers

• Sorry, you got to wait until the end of the episode airs in the US to post that info. Thanks -Mr.Leaf 18:05, 28 February 2007 (PST)

Ya, thats fine, i'll unlock the page and let you post it there when the episode it over. -Mr.Leaf 18:11, 28 February 2007 (PST)

There really is no need. You can make the page and use the preview button to look over it then add it when the episode has aired. -Mr.Leaf 18:36, 28 February 2007 (PST)

If you are referring to the DHARMA van article, it is because he did. That was created a few days ago and he deleted it because it was a spoiler. The article you created did not have Dharma in caps, so we redirected it to the previously deleted page. I or another Sysop, will unlock it when the episode finishes airing. -Mr.Leaf 18:41, 28 February 2007 (PST)

When the episode is over, go ahead and add it. -Mr.Leaf 19:29, 28 February 2007 (PST)

Colours

• Dan might come around later but if you are asking for a website, with the codes of the colours, this one is your best bet. -Mr.Leaf 18:38, 28 February 2007 (PST)

• I use the page on Wikipedia for reference: HTML color names.    Jabberwock    talk    contribs    email   - 18:42, 28 February 2007 (PST)

Template:USA2

• I deleted the above userbox as it was only used on your page. We have the country userboxes and it was decided that was enough for global userboxes. You are free to have the userbox directly on your userpage or on a subpage as many other users do. Thanks and if you need it heres the code:

Lostpedian of the week

• Unfortunately we don't that here at the Lostpedia. We already have the Hardwork medal which works much the same, and has the same purpose and there is no need for that medal, as there are too many things that could go wrong and no user is better than any other, it is a community effort and those editing the wiki should do so because of their liking for Lost, not for the glory of winning awards. Thanks for the suggestion though.-Mr.Leaf 13:40, 1 March 2007 (PST)

• Yeah, sorry, but we had this discussion before a while back about this type of award, and took a straw poll about it. The decision was not to do it, because we don't want people making gratuitous edits which are not needed, but because they are just trying to get their edit count up in order to get it. See also our unofficial awards: Hardwork medal, Assistance medal (both of which can be given by anyone) and Article Attack Award. We usually put major ideas like this to a discussion first (and often a vote) before implementing them. --PandoraX 03:31, 2 March 2007 (PST)

500 edits in a day!

holy crap man! You got here yesterday, and already have a ton of edits credited to you! Waltzing in like you own the place as well! --Blueeagleislander 22:18, 1 March 2007 (PST)

minor

• Please mark edits to your userpage as 'minor', as they are cluttering the 'recent changes' list. Also please consider using the 'preview' button instead of applying serial edits to the same page as you have been. Thanks, it would be greatly appreciated! -- ^C¯ _Santa_ ¯^T 23:30, 1 March 2007 (PST)

Colors

You can google "web colors" and come up with a few. Here's one from wikipedia and another site I often use. --PandoraX 03:35, 2 March 2007 (PST)

Pics

• When you upload pics from Lost-Media tag it wit {{Tv-screenshot}} as well as {{Images To Be Replaced}}. Thanks, Marik7772003 09:35, 2 March 2007 (PST)

Welcome Party

We do not welcome people here. Please stop. Princess Dharma (banned)

It is just something we do not do in this community. Of course you may be familiar with other wikis where it is common practise. NOT HERE. Here people just come and go without being a permenant addition to the site and really don't want to be bothered with such a welcome. Princess Dharma (banned)

• 1) Just don't welcome people. It is not practise here
• 2) Do not revert talk pages. What's done is done on them leave them be. Princess Dharma (banned)

Yes Princess Dharma is quite right, please don't leave welcome messages for new users. We have a community portal and help pages if a new user wishes to learn more. A welcome message also implies being in a position of authority --Nickb123 (Talk) 10:13, 2 March 2007 (PST)

I appreciate that, but some "new users" actually just want to edit and add their theory and then leave. Not all our intake are as intent on sticking around in the long-term as people like you or I --Nickb123 (Talk) 10:18, 2 March 2007 (PST)

your sig

• Your sig is spewing raw code on all the pages you put it on. Please use an /autosig page. See steps #2 and #3 in Help:Sigs#Dummyproof_step-by-step_method_for_making_your_first_sig

-- ^C¯ _Santa_ ¯^T 12:12, 2 March 2007 (PST)

• • I just told you. If you don't understand, sign HERE on your own page, the click "Edit", and take a look. -- ^C¯ _Santa_ ¯^T 12:21, 2 March 2007 (PST)

--Nokia (Talk) (Email) (Contribs) 20:09, 2 March 2007 (PST)

• It's really easy; look at the "Dummyproof" guide, and follow steps 2 and 3. -- ^C¯ _Santa_ ¯^T 18:21, 2 March 2007 (PST)

Category for Nokia award

First of all thanks for awarding me the Nokia award. And secondly would you mind moving the content from Category:Nokia Award to one of your user subpages. When you take on a project or do something that is not related to Lost, or Lostpedia, if you wouldn't mind just using your subpages instead, it would really help. Thanks -Mr.Leaf 12:24, 2 March 2007 (PST)

Thanks-Mr.Leaf 12:31, 2 March 2007 (PST)

And I deleted Category:Nokia Medal as it was a duplicate of the list you already kept and therefore edited the award template to remove that. If you have any questions ask. -Mr.Leaf 12:33, 2 March 2007 (PST)

Images

Hey, you might check out Lostpedia:Use of Images. I saw you recently uploaded an image without adding a template. it is required on every image here at Lostpedia that put an image template on it to comply with copyright laws, thanks.-Mr.Leaf 12:49, 2 March 2007 (PST)

your ClickA temp

You just copied that from Wikipedia, didn't you? Why does Lostpedia need it? --Blueeagleislander 20:40, 2 March 2007 (PST)

Hello Canadian Brotha

I like your userpage. Also, I think it's a neat idea to have personal user awards--Mr. Crabby (Talk) 13:20, 3 March 2007 (PST)

Thanks. The admin template was actually made by User:WarthenMan --Mr. Crabby (Talk) 14:09, 3 March 2007 (PST)

Princess Dharma

In a nutshell she disagrees with an admin's actions. I would strongly recommend staying out of it and letting it sort itself out. --Mr. Crabby (Talk) 18:22, 6 March 2007 (PST)
