Hey pen! How's it going? Are you alright? Still here? ☠ Jaguar ☠ 19:50, 3 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Of course he is. They are soon to introduce a new admin power whereby an administrator questioning the action of a peon, can prevent the peon making any further edits until the peon acknowledges a message as written by the administrator.

No block will need to be made, just by coincidence the peon will not be able to edit until they accept the message as dictated by the administrator.

I'm sure this will help to make sure that... something? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 02:11, 4 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

I am still here Jaguar, and apparently still an imminent threat to the project :D

I miss the orange band across the top of the page for new messages, that was cool. There was like a pavlovs doggie thingy where you saw the orange and thought WooHoo !!!! I guess someone didn't like that either. (they thought, nobody loves me, so I'll make it so nobody else is loved either, or so they thought)

It would be so cool if people could be *Forced* into not leaving en.wiki, then, as soon as en.wiki forked, every good editor would be sucked out from here and arrive in the new project all at once, like sci-fi or comedy, there are so many sketches that fit what I'm thinking of, but as it is, it's hard to go and find them all.

Jag, you should come to commons ! on commons, they call 'articles' 'files', and you can destroy HEAPS of them, they even have things called 'mass deletions', I've done a few, it's fun. :) although my time there is better spent on valuable additions like polandball and insect porn, with their undeniable educational value. Lemme show you some.

Very important work there, but in some ways it suffers a few of the same problems, but in a way less so, because there is a occasionally-functioning de-sysop process (possibly), I think it must have been made out of fear that non-Americans might become sysops and need fixing ;) not like on en.wiki where everyone is assumed to be a fat redneck, (hmm, I should go read the official bias page, I seem to have a fuzzy recollection of some of the statistics)

I'm glad that you and Pesky are still about, I can't visit her page easily, but it is good to know that she is ok and still kickin. I've been tinkering with my programming knowledge-base in the areas of robotics and so forth, useful things for a fork. I think wikialpha is cool, but I don't know that they could handle all of wiki if I asked PALZ to copy it. I like PALZ, I mean, I know he hates me and is trying to kill me, but honestly I get that a lot, and he does a good job of fixing up those space station articles, so it balances itself out in the end I guess. PLUS there is that corny movie Tron, which I have a copy of the newer one (must get the old one) and there is that nerdy 'tron guy' I know, but maybe that's cause it IS a cult movie, maybe people just don't know it yet. Hmmm, I kindof like it, the idealism, the god awful shallow villains, the power of the creator, the whole cyberworld thing, hmm, whistful thinking.

Peons makes me think of warcraft II, you click on the Orc Peon too many times, he tells you 'my tummy fells funny' and then burps loud and long. Penyulap ☏ 05:12, 4 May 2013 (UTC) 05:12, 4 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi Penyulap. I completely agree with everything you said, and whatever decision you make, I'll support. Yeah I noticed that they got rid of the big orange band for new messages, I loved that! It was one of those things that made Wikipedia great, but all good things must come to an end eventually. I guess somebody thought it was time to a change and now they introduced in a new crappy notifications system.

I think it's about time you should be unblocked, Wikipedia will be so much better with you around and editing. But then again this project is more or less doomed and too politically correct for people like us! Yes me and Pesky are still here, and Dr. Blofeld... and a handful of other good editors too, but I think we're all that's left! I haven't been on Wikipedia for months, I can't create anything anymore, and I can't expand on anything either without other people interfering...

Commons? I'll check it out. I uploaded a few pics on there two years ago but I suppose people have got things like Instagram now where people can just look and mess about with photos in a more simplistic way. Yes it would be great if all the good editors could get transported from here to a new Wiki, a place where we could be our own bosses! Who knows? It might actually happen one day!

I'm still here if you need me. :D ☠ Jaguar ☠ 19:36, 11 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Christmas on the International Space Station is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Christmas on the International Space Station until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. W. D. Graham 20:02, 11 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

thank you, that is very kind of you, and that is a heart wrenching list for so many reasons. When I look at the date I think wow, has it been that long ? Then again, I look at the ISS article and it looks more like I've been gone for a decade or more :D that article inspires me to make a space wiki, to bring alive all the fantastic ideas that so many friends had/have for the article, but I have to work towards the bigger goal of a better place for everyone, and so that's what I try to do.

Hi Penyulap, I guess you already know that your entry was removed from wp:MW the next day after I added it. Some discussion on the topic of blocked editors on Missing, which you also probably familiar with took place during my time there at:

To my dismay I felt I had to stop editing Missing, but hope the page swill survive, Ottawahitech (talk) 01:07, 20 December 2016 (UTC)please ping meReply

Why not? Talkpage access during a block is the default option. It's removing a blocked user's talkpage access that needs a reason. Bishonen | talk 16:26, 23 June 2013 (UTC).Reply

That reminded me about that scratchy noise from the cupboard, I found this strange contraption, I wonder who may wish to take care of it ? (the hamsters are well-trained). I think this is the most important award especially for protecting the entire community. Penyulap ☏ 18:52, 23 Jun 2013 (UTC)

Pen, I'm dumbfounded, that's the most magnificent barnstar, nobody could deserve it. Thank you very much. I guess there aren't so many angels around this time of year…. the poor little hamsters are getting all worn out… [Decisively:] I guess I'll have to fetch it myself!

I believe nobody could be more-so. You're welcome. There are still countless angels, and migration may be the issue. You should see how many there are on commons ! I think the fewer angels left here on en.wiki are spreading thinner every year. Those camsters are intriguing though, I too thought they would tire, but after watching them without a break for 19 hours when I first put them there, all I can surmise is that they rest when we're not looking and not listening for the squeak squeak squeak that can be heard by those of extra-ordinary hearing.

Pen, I'm getting e-mail complaints here that the camsters have changed the barnstar landscape and put ordinary barnstars' noses out of joint: "No other barnstar even matters anymore. Penyulap has ruined "normal" barnstars for the rest of us." :-) Bishonen | talk 22:07, 26 June 2013 (UTC).Reply

That is a problem I didn't expect. I spruced up some userboxes which is ironic as I don't use userboxes, except two, one of which points out that I don't like userboxes which is ironic because it's a userbox pointing out that it is ironic I don't like them. Maybe it's a sign of things to come, because if I can, I'll do for online encyclopaedias what I have done for userboxes and barnstars. Totally pimp them, much to the amusement of the amused. Penyulap ☏ 08:45, 27 Jun 2013 (UTC)

Whoops, sorry I mean these ones. Two of the ones you put there were for other people. These two go just before the 4 '-' characters and the '"If you bat ..."

Also I think they were hard to find, because the archives last eighteen entries are erroneous, the bot couldn't manage it properly and repeatedly put the same stuff in. Penyulap ☏ 16:35, 2 Jul 2013 (UTC) 16:35, 2 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

There are I think more pressing image-related problems, such as the non-free rationale being used on the OPSEK image, there are any number of free images that have been created for space stations such as the Chinese space station.

This is your one and only warning. I like your user page a lot, so I'm going to tell my friends it's mine. I'll tell my enemies too, because then they'll like me and I'll be able to say (truthfully, for the first time in my life) that I'm a person without enemies. Not even Jesus was able to say that, but then he never told anyone your user page was his. He never even saw it. Comcast was crap in Galilee. Writegeist (talk) 07:00, 25 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Cheers to the Chinese space program which has now overtaken the USA space station program. The USA program launched 1 space station on it's own (spacelab),.. whereas Tiangong II is the second space station that the PRC has launched on it's own. So, once again there are two manned space stations up in space, ISS and Tiangong II. There have been two stations in space before but not for a while. Back then a manned spaceship traveled between the two as a robot arrived at one ! those were the days. Would be nice to see a deep space space station run by China and Russia together.

I see the article is basically a stub and I find the addon "Hide Unwanted Results of Google Search" useful. Animationed movies are easy as pie to make and I see them in all the news reports for Tiangong II. I see there is nothing of the sort here though. Now even a good selection of still images for the article, but then again, it's just a stub. Penyulap ☏ 22:30, 17 Oct 2016 (UTC)
